Chapter 904: Sacrifice and Killing Intent (Fourth Update)
On Qingming Festival, in the early morning, twelve identical bulletproof vehicles slowly drove out of Dai's garden.
The same car, the same clothes, and the blackout cloth on the car windows made it impossible to tell which car Dai Hulang and Dai Mingzi were in.
Ye Tianlong was also wearing black clothes and was leaning quietly on a car. He was also wearing a Celestial Silkworm Armor and carrying a Desert Eagle in his waist.
With the magazine full and extra bullets added, it would be no pressure for Ye Tianlong to kill twenty people.
An hour later, the convoy appeared at the West Lake Cemetery. The staff at the park had obviously been informed of the Dai family's sacrifice, so a special passage was provided.
From the entrance to the target park, there are still many Dai family members guarding them, trying their best to eliminate the danger caused by Yan Huang and others.
"Chirp——"
Ye Tianlong also discovered that there were many monkeys eating fruits in the cemetery, running down from the adjacent flower and fruit mountain.
Family members who come in and out will basically throw something for them to eat, giving them a way to release their souls.
As the car moved forward slowly, Ye Tianlong took his eyes away from the monkeys and turned to the mountain road ahead.
This is a luxurious cemetery with a structure of seven stars holding a moon. The clean tombstones extend from the east to the west mountain, with green grass and blooming flowers.
An asphalt road connects seven parks of different styles, allowing mourners to find the cemetery along the road and appreciate the scenery of each district.
Of course, the higher the park goes, the more expensive it becomes. The seventh park at the top overlooks the West Lake city, so the unit price is almost 100,000 yuan per square meter.
This most expensive park was bought entirely by Dai Hulang five years ago, and was specially used to bury the deceased meritorious officials of the Dai family.
Almost every year, more tombstones are added to the park. Today, more than 300 tombstones are neatly arranged.
As the motorcade slowly drove into the seventh park, Ye Tianlong saw the stele at the entrance:
"Home!"
A very simple word, but it shows Dai Hulang's respect for his dead brothers. This is their final destination.
The motorcade quickly stopped at the signal of the Dai family guards and parked in the open space opposite the seventh park. Those participating in the sacrifice had to enter on foot.
This is to show respect for the deceased and to prevent enemies from hiding under the car or installing explosives on the car.
Dai Hulang's car also stopped.
Seeing Dai Hulang, Dai Mingzi, Ye Tianlong, and Aunt Wa appear, the Dai family guards all around bowed in unison:
"Mr. Dai, Miss Dai!"
Dozens of veterans who came from various places also approached with smiles and greeted Dai Hulang and Dai Mingzi politely.
At the same time, they all glanced at Ye Tianlong intentionally or unintentionally, and were a little curious about the appearance of this strange boy. After all, this was a sacrifice of the Dai family.
Dai Hulang did not introduce him to everyone, but just chatted with them and reminisced about old times, as if he wanted to keep Ye Tianlong a little mysterious.
At the same time, the bodyguards who followed Dai Hulang separated out another 20 people to check the cemetery again, not giving their companions a chance to let go.
Ye Tianlong kept a friendly smile to the curious people, but he was more focused on looking around at the situation.
He found that except for Dai Hulang's cronies and more than two dozen veterans, there were no other strangers worshiping at the scene, and there were no staff.
The park is heavily guarded inside and outside. There are three posts, one post, five steps and one sentry. Many guards occupy dark corners and commanding heights, looking around at the surrounding situation.
Han Xiaolong stood at the top and directed the Dai family's elite to search every suspicious corner.
The metal detector also kept beeping.
Ye Tianlong exhaled a long breath: "They are really well guarded."
"Of course, those who came to participate today are all the backbones of the Dai family."
While Dai Hulang and Dai Mingzi were chatting with the old minister, Aunt Wa walked slowly to Ye Tianlong's side: "Anything that happens to anyone will be a loss for the Dai family."
"Not only are there layers of bodyguards, but metal detectors are also used in every corner of the cemetery. Even the cemetery will be inspected to prevent explosives from being planted."
"There's nothing you can do. The higher you are, the more careful you need to be, otherwise it will just capsize in the gutter."
Aunt Wa's smile was very beautiful: "These days, luck is the most unreliable thing. Only strength and caution are the keys to survival."
Ye Tianlong smiled and nodded: "What Aunt Wa said makes sense."
"It's a pity that Yanhuang hasn't been dug out yet, and the three people from the night before were not locked. Otherwise, it would be easier today."
Aunt Wa smiled very calmly: "There are more guards than the backbone of the Dai family. This is the first time."
Ye Tianlong felt the fragrance coming from Aunt Wa's body and entered the park through the security gate unhurriedly: "As long as nothing happens."
Although Yan Huang was injured, based on Ye Tianlong's understanding of him, he still would not give up the mission easily, not to mention that he had many people under his command.
"Tianlong, when the sacrifice is held later, you must perform the etiquette of a successor."
Aunt Wa suddenly whispered: "Mr. Dai hopes that you will complete the ceremony as the successor. I hope you are mentally prepared."
Ye Tianlong was startled when he heard this, his eyes full of shock: "Successor? Are you kidding me?"
"It's not a joke, it's a fact. Mr. Dai has been paying attention to you for a long time, fully recognizes you, and thinks you can shoulder this responsibility."
Aunt Wa responded with a very serious look: "So he hopes you can be his successor."
"After Mr. Dai finishes speaking later, he will be the first to lay flowers, and you will be the second. He will be the first to offer a toast, and you will be the second."
Ye Tianlong had a little difficulty accepting the news: "Uncle didn't tell me. Besides, my current ability and strength are completely insufficient..."
Auntie Wa seemed to have anticipated Ye Tianlong's reaction: "I'm not asking you to take the position now, I'm just asking you to perform the ceremony."
"The old ministers present are all smart people. Mr. Dai doesn't need to say anything more. They will see things from the ceremony."
"The reason why I didn't introduce you to them right away is because Mr. Dai thinks it's better for them to dig up your information than for him to tell you."
She sighed faintly: "He didn't tell you because it's better for me to pass on the message."
Ye Tianlong had a headache: "Isn't this a bit absurd? I've only known my uncle for a few days."
"Some people, even if you know them for a lifetime, you can't see their hearts. Some people, you can feel that he is reliable after knowing him for one minute. "
Auntie Wa smiled and said: "Trust has nothing to do with the length of time, it only has to do with the heart."
"Besides, although Mr. Dai has only known you for a few days, he has been paying attention to you two months ago, and he really recognizes you completely."
"Don't think too much, Mr. Dai just left a way out."
She reminded Ye Tianlong: "You know he is in a difficult situation. If you don't prepare a way out in advance, if he has an accident, the whole Dai family will be in trouble."
Ye Tianlong bit his lips slightly and finally nodded: "Okay, I will listen to my uncle's arrangement."
At this time, he can't just give up.
In addition to the guards, more than 60 people have entered the park and walked towards the tombs and the platform in front.
More than 300 tombstones surround a white marble base. On the base, there is a pavilion carved with coiled dragons and flowing clouds, which looks very magnificent.
Ye Tianlong also stopped talking and followed Auntie Wa slowly forward.
The seventh cemetery is more beautiful and cleaner than ordinary cemeteries, with neatly trimmed cypresses, secluded paths with falling leaves, and plum blossoms swaying in the wind...
If it weren't for the scattered tombstones, if it weren't for the occasional monkey calls, it would be hard for outsiders to imagine that this is the final destination of life.
Monkeys? Calls?
Ye Tianlong paused slightly in his sigh. He found that he did hear the monkeys' calls, and there were quite a few of them.
"Chiji--"
The monkeys' calls became two points louder. Ye Tianlong subconsciously retracted his gaze from the white marble base to the dozens of lush cypress trees on the side.
He found that there were more than a dozen monkeys of varying sizes. They climbed the branches and approached the tombstones. They were very fast and quite agile.
After a few swings, they closed the distance with everyone.
Although the Dai family guards were curious about the monkeys coming here, they didn't pay much attention to these beasts. They just threw out some fruits and food in the hope of getting rid of them.
The murderous aura suddenly became strong!
Ye Tianlong's eyelids jumped, and then he saw three monkeys directly across the ten-meter void, rushing down from the tree, facing Dai Hulang and his daughter.
The rest of the monkeys also screamed and rushed, each one as sharp as a meteor.
Ye Tianlong's heart trembled and he shouted: "Be careful!"
When the third uncle instinctively threw Dai Hulang to the ground, Ye Tianlong also hugged Dai Mingzi and rolled out, and the three monkeys rushed past the two people.
They did not attack Dai Hulang and Dai Mingzi, but just knocked over three backbones of the Dai family.
Before the three people could react, the monkeys' claws scratched their throats.
When the blood splashed, it bounced up and stabbed the throats of the three people nearby. All the movements were smooth and well-controlled.
Six people died instantly
Ye Tianlong's right hand flashed, the Desert Eagle was in his hand, and the trigger was pulled.
"Bang bang bang!"
The three monkeys were shot in the head by Ye Tianlong, and they fell to the ground after rushing forward a few steps.
Without stopping, Ye Tianlong tilted his gun and fired two more shots, killing two monkeys that were about to pounce on Aunt Wa.
"Protect Mr. Dai!"
Uncle San also flashed a knife, swung it twice, and chopped off the head of a monkey with red eyes.
"Chiu--"
While the scene was in chaos and people were dealing with the crazy monkeys, several black shadows appeared in the sky again, and four hawks swooped down...
