Chapter 242 The Blood God Cult's Ambush

The next morning.

"Li Ming, the county governor's office sent someone a message to invite you, and also sent a few meeting gifts..."

Lu Tian knocked on Li Ming's door early in the morning and handed him a valuable gold sticker.

There are dragons and phoenixes dancing on it, and it says "Wang Ming, the governor of Cangyang County, personally opens the door".

"Wang Ming? Governor of Cangyang County? He is the chief of Cangyang County and he is not under my control. Why do you want to send him a gift and ask me to talk to him?"

Li Ming's eyes flickered, a little confused.

In Daxuan, the head of a county is the county guard, and the head of a state is the state pastor, which is equivalent to the feudal history.

Although the county governor only holds an official position around the fourth rank, he holds real power.

In charge of the political affairs of a county, he can also mobilize the army to suppress bandits and quell chaos...

However, he is ranked as a divine catcher, and his status is comparable to that of a state pastor.

Of course, you don't need to care about the invitation from a mere county guard.

"Wang Ming was born in Xuandu Academy. He did not take the path of being a capital official, but was sent out. Although his martial arts training is not outstanding, he handles government affairs very well, so he also has several senior officials in the court. Official appreciation.

And those high officials were on the side of the prince, so this person could be considered to be of the prince's lineage. "

Lu Tian naturally knew the parents of Cangyang County very well, and quickly told Li Ming about his past and background.

"Furthermore, Wang Ming has worked conscientiously and never made any mistakes during his years as an official. He is one of the rare good officials... But I didn't expect that he would actually give you a lot of money just to curry favor with you. "

Lu Tian was a little in disbelief, but he frowned and said:

"Obviously, there is something fishy about this matter... Of course, it is also possible that I am overthinking it. After all, you are now a popular person in the eyes of the prince. If I can be friends with you, it will be of great help to his career."

"Didn't you say that the other party gave me some gifts? I don't know where they are?"

Li Ming felt something was wrong and said seriously.

It made him feel a little weird that the other party was engaging in this kind of bribery so openly.

Not long after, Lu Tian delivered several large boxes to Li Ming's room. When he opened them, golden and silver light suddenly filled the room, making it dazzling.

"Master Wang, is he so careless?"

Even though Li Ming was in a very good mood, he was speechless for a moment when he saw the shining boxes of gold and silver.

Logically speaking.

Although it is not uncommon to give bribes and receive gifts, is the normal process to target someone they like and then pay bribes without leaving any trace?

Although this was his first time encountering something like this, he had not been able to watch many plots in movies and TV series in his previous life, and the gift-giver was quite clever.

Lu Tian seemed to have thought of something, and with suspicion, he moved boxes of gold and silver.

Finally, the mystery hidden in it was discovered.

At the bottom of the last box of gold and silver, a note can be seen pressed underneath.

When Lu Tian saw this scene, he quickly took out the note and handed it to Li Ming:

"It seems that Mr. Wang has some news."

Li Ming frowned, feeling that things were gradually exceeding his expectations.

He picked up the note and looked at it carefully, his face slightly solemn.

Then he handed the note to Lu Tian for viewing.

After reading it, Lu Tian also looked nervous and gritted his teeth and said:

"Is it the Blood God Cult again?"

"It's really haunting."

The gift given by the governor Wang Ming was just a pretense, and the real purpose was to spread the news.

The other party directly pointed out that this invitation was actually a trap of the Blood God Sect.

The opponent has set up a blood prison formation in the city, and the first messenger of the Blood God Sect, Xue Lingyi, has already laid an ambush in the governor's mansion. If Li Ming goes there, he will be attacked from both sides.

"If it's a blood prison formation... it would be difficult to handle."

Lu Tian's eyes flashed with horror, and then he explained:

"This formation is exclusive to the Blood God Cult. It has the ability to pollute the true energy and true energy, and can also increase the strength of these Blood God Cult thieves. It is an extremely vicious formation.

Moreover, this formation usually sets up an altar. If it is activated, the entire Cangyang County may suffer.

There is also Blood Spirit One, who has been promoted to Martial Saint many years ago. As the first messenger, he is deeply appreciated by the leader of the Blood God Sect. It is said that he has cultivated multiple Blood God Sons of Martial Saint level and has extremely strong combat power. "

"It seems that this banquet is really a Hongmen banquet...but it seems that it won't work if I don't go."

"The other party is probably targeting me. If I escape, I'm afraid everyone in this city will die..."

Li Ming thought for a long time and finally chose to go to the appointment.

After all, as a high-ranking official of the imperial court, he could not do anything to benefit the people.

But we can’t harm this city full of people...

The reason why the Blood God Sect has such a strong campaign is probably because of him.

It's a pity that Wang Ming risked his life to deliver the message.

Although I don’t know what the other person is thinking, he doesn’t seem to be a bad person?

"Although this is true, wouldn't it be too rash for you to go alone?"

Lu Tian walked around the room, feeling quite worried.

Li Ming shook his head and said:

"Even if it's a Hongmen Banquet, I still have to give it a try. If even I can't handle it, who in Cangyang County can help me?

And Mr. Lu, you don’t have to worry. Since I dare to keep the appointment, I’m sure of it. "

…

Sunset dusk.

The lights inside and outside the city are brightly lit.

Ever since Li Ming became famous, no force in Cangyang County dared to disobey the imperial court.

Everyone knows that Li Shenpo is a young martial saint who hates evil.

All the major families restrain the behavior of their children, and even those who come from other places dare not do anything rash.

Li Ming came to the county governor's mansion alone.

The appearance of this mansion was beyond his expectations. As a mansion of a senior official, its decoration was quite simple, not as luxurious as Lu Tian's mansion.

As the head of a county, the court would naturally allocate a house for him. Living in such a shabby house was a bit beyond his expectations.

"I don't know if this person is pretending to be honest or is he really honest?"

Li Ming thought.

He handed the invitation to the servants in the mansion. Soon, a man who looked like a manager came to greet him.

"I'm sorry for neglecting Li Shenbu. The master has been unwell these days and has been recuperating in the mansion. Please forgive me for not being able to receive you in person."

Li Ming waved his hand, not caring, and smiled:

"Lord Wang is the parent official of a county. It is understandable that he is busy with government affairs."

The steward made an invitation gesture and took Li Ming into the official residence.

Li Ming looked around on the surface, but in fact he was sensing the surrounding environment.

After entering the martial saint realm, the warrior has a perception equivalent to the divine consciousness, and Li Ming has the purple lotus to nourish his soul day and night, so his divine consciousness is naturally very strong.

In addition, he has the sky eye, which can sense the murderous intent and malice within a hundred feet around him.

Li Ming's mind was floating, and he didn't know it until he sensed it.

He was shocked when he sensed it.

This mansion, for him, was full of malice!

However, the moment he walked into the mansion, he had nothing to retreat.

……

At the same time, somewhere in the city.

Knowing that Li Ming had stepped into the mansion.

Xue Lingyi couldn't help but laugh.

Standing on a high altar covered with blood light.

Along with his laughter, figures emerged one after another.

The aura of each figure was extremely powerful.
