540: C540 Old

C540 Old

Gong Changyuan was surprised when he heard Gong Qing'er at the door.

Gong Qing'er had clearly disappeared for a long time and he couldn't find any news about her in the entire Linhai City. He had tried to call the police or look for a private investigator no matter what.

There was still no news about him. It was as if he had disappeared from the face of the earth.

No one would dare to believe a person who had disappeared for a long time without a trace of information appearing in front of them.

When he saw with his own eyes that Gong Qing'er was just standing there in front of him like a living person, a man almost cried out in front of everyone.

"To suddenly disappear without a word, where did you die!"

Gong Changyuan thought there would be a filial fatherly scene, but Gong Qing'er just stood there, motionless.

Anger immediately welled up and he slapped Gong Qing'er hard, knocking her sunglasses off her face.

Gong Qing'er's left cheek turned completely red, but her expression didn't change at all. It had to be known that Gong Changyuan had spent a lot of effort to beat her up.

Only then did Gong Changyuan feel that something was wrong. He held Gong Qing'er's face and started to carefully examine it.

"Qing'er, don't scare dad, what's wrong with you?"

The lifeless Gong Qing'er couldn't give him any extra reaction. Gong Changyuan was too anxious and kept shaking her.

In the end, it was all in vain.

However, another piece of paper fell off from which corner of Gong Qing'er's body along with Gong Changyuan's strength and landed on the ground.

Gong Changyuan picked it up and took a look. He knew this person by name and they had a period of conflict.

Gong Changyuan couldn't understand what was written on it. Why was Gong Qing'er's Puppet Technique cast down just like that? What was going on?

At the current stage, Gong Changyuan didn't get any response. All he could do was to follow the instructions on the paper and protect Gong Qing'er.

… ….

On the other side, Yu Jingzhe, after leaving the palace, followed the long distance bus.

He followed the map that his grandfather had left behind, and only stopped when he reached a remote mountain village.

Until now, Yu Jingzhe still could not imagine that a famous puppeteer would live in such a backward place. Even the signal was constantly changing.

Yu Jingzhe basically had no doubts about what his grandpa left behind in his notes.

Needless to say, the puppeteer listed was a close friend of Grandpa.

This village was truly too remote. Unless one was a person from this village, normally, no outsiders would come here.

Thus, the moment Yu Jingzhe entered the village, he received a lot of attention. Everyone was sizing up this outsider. No matter where he went, he would be watched by countless eyes.

However, when Yu Jingzhe walked onto a more remote mountain road, everyone scattered like birds and beasts.

There had always been a legend in this village that the person who lived there was a strange man who could eat human flesh and drink human blood. No one had ever dared to go up there.

No one even thought of reminding Yu Jingzhe when he went up the path.

Yu Jingzhe became more and more desolate as he walked. Everywhere he went, there were no more houses for people to live in.

"Kid, who are you looking for?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded. Yu Jingzhe did not even have time to react, nor did he feel anything was wrong. He immediately slapped his head.0

It didn't hurt, but this was enough for him to feel the ill taste of this esteemed one.

"May I ask if you are a Puppet Master?" I have something that I want to ask you about. My grandfather's name is Chengloong and he is your friend. "

After a long time, no other sound could be heard.

Just when Yu Jingzhe thought that no one would care about him and still need him to grope his way forward, the voice sounded again. However, it was different from the first time, and it had a depressing feeling of vicissitudes.

"It's the opposite. There's a small path on the side. Follow it up and don't mind what you see along the way. Remember, you have to keep walking!"

Yu Jingzhe found the path and followed it up.

After walking for a short while, he saw a "little girl" around the age of seven or eight. She was squatting under a big tree, crying and looking like she had lost her way.

According to the person behind him, Yu Jingzhe only took a cursory glance before he continued walking up without any hesitation.

When he passed by the "little girl", he saw that she suddenly moved and her hands were about to grab onto Yu Jingzhe's legs.

After dodging easily, Yu Jingzhe saw clearly that this "little girl" was actually not a real person but a lifelike puppet.

For a golem to be able to reach such a level, it was sufficient to tell how accomplished a golem master was.

Yu Jingzhe walked without hesitation until a simple house appeared in front of him. At the front of the house, there was an old man with white hair lying on a recliner with his hat covering his face.

"Old senior, I am Yu Jingzhe. Please excuse me."

"Since you know this is presumptuous of you, but still insist on disturbing me, I'm afraid that you have encountered something. Tell me."

Yu Jingzhe didn't expect this senior to be so easy to talk to, so he told his guess from the beginning to the end.

The old senior had originally thought that this junior in front of him was just looking for something new. Now, besides him, there were no other puppeteers who could catch up to him.

However, when Yu Jingzhe said that a living person had been turned into a puppet by the puppet technique, the senior suddenly stood up and instantly arrived in front of Yu Jingzhe. He pulled his collar and asked: "Did you see the person who used the puppet technique?"

Yu Jingzhe's eyes showed that he was surprised and then immediately disappeared.

Since he was a puppet master with extraordinary attainments, it was natural for him to have a higher cultivation. Otherwise, how could he protect himself?

"I haven't, but the person who was given the puppet technique was my friend." That person turned her into a substitute puppet and killed my grandfather. "

A murderous look flashed across Yu Jingzhe's eyes as his killing intent instantly poured out.

After he retracted his gaze, the aura around his body disappeared and he returned to being an ordinary junior.

The old senior had long known that his old friend's health wasn't good, but he didn't know that he had died not long ago.

"That scum, to think that he actually escaped. All these years, he must have been living quite comfortably. He actually ran out to harm people, and he even made them into puppets!"

The old senior scolded. Yu Jingzhe could vaguely guess that Gong Qing'er had changed into that kind of person. The old senior in front of him seemed to know who this person was.

"You just wait here, I'm going to pack my stuff. Hurry up and bring me to see your woman. It's not easy to isolate a substitute puppet. Something big might happen if you delay it!"

After hurriedly packing his things, Yu Jingzhe was led out of the forest by his senior. As cultivators, they wouldn't feel tired even if they walked for a whole day and night.
