Two hours passed and it was time to rendezvous.
When Xingyun and the others returned, there were already two groups of people waiting.
Soon several more teams came back, but the last team was still missing.
"what happened?"
"It's already past the agreed time. Why haven't they come back yet? They must have encountered some danger..."
"That direction seems to be the direction of Song Mansion."
Everyone was exchanging information while waiting for the remaining team to come back.
"We met people from the Chaoyang Sect in the east of the city."
Chaoyang Sect came in after them, and encountered a little friction after entering, but they saw no blood.
"We saw a caravan entering the city at night at the southeast gate of the city. The caravan and the city defenders seemed to be very familiar with them. The things pulled in the car were alive, and they were dragged in the direction of Song Mansion."
As soon as the words were finished here, someone picked up the conversation over there.
"It's human."
The others didn't realize the meaning of these words for a while.
Xiao Chi added: "The people in the car are people."
people? ?
It is an open-top truck that pulls things. The things on the truck are tied up and covered with black things.
How many cars of people were brought into the city in the middle of the night?
"Have you encountered this too?"
"Yes, there are also those in the southwest." Someone from the same team as Xingyun said.
They robbed the group of people directly. When they opened the car, they saw that there were children inside, ranging from a few months old to teenagers.
So many children, what are they doing here?
This doesn't make anyone think of anything good.
The nine teams successively told the information they had collected, and also restored the map of the city according to their respective routes of action.
Until the exchange was over, the team still didn't come back.
When they first started communicating, there was a watchman passing by outside. It was midnight.
Zhong Limei glanced in the direction of the Song Mansion and said, "I haven't come back yet. I'm afraid something happened. Let's go look for it!"
Since all the clues point to the Song Mansion, there must be something wrong in the Song Mansion.
-
The Song Mansion is located near the east of the city.
It was already midnight, but the Song Mansion was still brightly lit and noisy.
"Damn you bastard, you killed my son!"
"Hit me, hit me hard!"
In the main courtyard, a still charming woman was crying and hysterically directing her subordinates to beat the woman who was pinned down by the guards in the courtyard.
The woman's eyes were filled with tears, and she wailed on the middle-aged man's chest, "Sir, you must find those evil cultivators and avenge Jinbao!"
Jinbao is Song Yaozu’s nickname.
The middle-aged man's dignified face was full of anger, staring at the beaten woman on the ground.
The dignified woman standing behind frowned and advised:
"Sir, so many people in the city saw that he was an immortal. I'm afraid it was really a monk who came to the mortal world and ran into Yaozu to show off his evil talents... and caused a tragic disaster."
"Madam, what are you talking about!?" The woman suddenly exploded. She pointed at Mrs. Song, "Have you been expecting me, Jinbao, to die!"
"Oh, what kind of good people can they be who kill people casually on the street? They must be evil cultivators!"
"Sir, please quickly give the order to arrest all those evil cultivators and avenge my golden treasure!"
"My poor Jinbao, even the body was not found~"
Mrs. Song had a sarcastic look on her face, and instead of scolding the woman, she cast a worried look at Song Zhi.
"If the beating continues, the person will be beaten to death."
Only then did Song Zhi make people stop.
The woman immediately started howling again, clamoring to kill the woman with a stick.
Song Zhi directly ordered the woman to be sent back to the courtyard, imprisoned the woman who was beaten to death, and ordered people to continue searching in the city.
After they left, Mrs. Song helped Song Zhi to the house.
Not long after, a maid came in with a large bowl of dark medicinal soup, "Sir, the medicine is ready."
Song Zhi picked up the bowl, took a small sip first, relaxed his brows, and then drank all the remaining medicine in the bowl in one gulp.
Mrs. Song raised her lips and raised her hand to help Song Zhi undress. Song Zhi held down Mrs. Song's little hand, picked her up and strode towards the bed.
...
"Are you sure the car is going to Song Mansion?"
The Song Mansion was not too big. With so many of them, they quickly explored every place in the Song Mansion, but they could not find those cars or those people at all.
There wasn't even a trace of the group they lost.
"I saw those cars coming this way..."
"Song Mansion is so big, there is no place to hide."
They sent messages to the missing people, but there was no response from the other party. Those people seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
"They're not out of town, are they?"
Although the city gate is closed, it is still very simple for them to leave the city.
Not only in Song Mansion, but also in other places in the city, no trace of the missing person was found.
There is still a golden elixir among them, so the whole army will not be wiped out.
The sky turned fish-belly white, and gradually there were cries of hawkers on the road, and it was dawn.
Xingyun followed Xiao Chi and his group as they wandered the streets.
"Help us! Help us!" A cry for help suddenly came from an alley, and it turned out to be someone from the Chaoyang Sect.
Chaoyang Sect is a small sect, not very strong, and always ranks at the bottom of the competition.
They walked over and took a look, and found that the Chaoyang Sect's disciples were pale, and a few were lying on the ground, looking seriously injured, but no external injuries could be seen.
Xiao Chi walked over and asked, "What's going on?"
Now it's a competition, they are considered competitors.
Xingyun looked along this street and found a row of houses hung with colorful silks.
She knelt down and felt the unconscious man's pulse.
The spiritual energy in these people's bodies has lost a lot and is very disordered.
Obviously it wasn't from a fight.
The disciple who first called for help looked nervous and was a little short of breath. "We just suspected that there was something wrong with this street, so we sneaked in to investigate, but we didn't expect to find a way."
Xingyun stood up and asked curiously, "Is that the Flower Street over there?"
"...Yes." The disciple replied in a low voice with a guilty conscience on his face.
They came here to investigate, and there is indeed something wrong inside.
As soon as they entered Flower Street, they were greeted by the mixed smell of powder and rouge, but they didn't realize there was anything wrong with these things.
It was not until later that it was discovered that the meridians were blocked and the spiritual energy was not flowing smoothly, it was already too late.
They escaped with great difficulty.
The reason why they feel guilty is because they feel that if the conditions are ordinary, they will not be easily deceived, but here...
They have seen many beauties, but they have never seen one like this, but even beauties would not be so deceptive.
Anyway, something is wrong.
Xingyun looked at Xiao Chi, "Senior brother, let's save them."
"Save?" Xiao Chi didn't intend to save.
Even if they are not saved, they will only be eliminated and their lives will not be in danger.
Save Isn't that a competitor?
The devil in the illusion is limited, which means the scores are limited.
Xingyun confirmed and affirmed: "They are human beings too!"
The rule is to eliminate demons and save people, and people from other sects are also human beings.
There is no goodness in saving people in the illusion, but there should be some in saving these people...
