Mu Xueqing frowned and looked at Qian Yunsheng busy in the corridor.
Her thoughts had already flown outside the city.
After so many days of screening like a dense net, even a fish hiding deep in the pond would have been fished out long ago. Unexpectedly, this demon was even more slippery than the fish.
Although traces of it were found several times, it escaped every time.
Fortunately, it was just a clone now, and not as powerful as the main body in Linhai City. Otherwise, Mu Xueqing would not have dared to send so many people out.
Even now, people in the search team in the past few days still occasionally go missing. I am afraid that these people have been poisoned by the demon.
Thinking about the monster's abnormal ability to absorb people and monsters to increase its strength, Mu Xueqing felt heavy in her heart. The more people disappeared, the stronger the monster became.
If the monsters were as powerful as Linhai City, I'm afraid it wouldn't be as simple as just one or two of these people disappearing. Mu Xueqing wouldn't be surprised if they all become snacks for the monsters.
But she didn't dare to stop the search now. Just because she was still searching, there were far fewer casualties reported around Jixia City.
If there hadn't been such an intense search and the monsters were allowed to attack wantonly outside the city, I'm afraid the monsters would have improved their strength even faster.
Mu Xueqing felt as if she was sitting on a volcano that was about to erupt. The only way to stop the eruption of this volcano was to catch the demon.
Qian Yunsheng was busy making arrangements on a small piece of free land under the corridor. Mu Xueqing glanced at his figure and calmed down slightly.
The appearance of this casual cultivator in front of her reminded her once again that it was she who had pushed these people to a position that was beyond redemption.
Originally, I had pretended to have temporarily forgotten this matter due to the busyness during this period, but the appearance of this person in front of me forced me to think of these things again.
Mu Xueqing shook her head, everything in the world has its cause and effect.
I don’t know how many books I will have to read in the future to be able to reduce my sins a little bit.
In fact, when he first received the news about Qian Yunsheng, he subconsciously rejected it.
He has enough manpower now, and his uncle is still on duty. No one wants to have someone hanging in front of him to remind him of such a disgraceful thing.
However, Qian Yunsheng succeeded in impressing himself because he could deal with demons.
For Mu Xueqing, who had been unable to find a demon in the past few days and the pressure on her shoulders was increasing, this was indeed a magic power that she could not refuse.
Qian Yunsheng was carefully spreading his spiritual power evenly on two pieces of grass that had been planted. On the two pieces of grass, green buds sprouted out due to his spiritual energy.
At first glance, there is no difference between these two pieces of grass.
But soon, I will make them different.
He turned his head,
He signaled to Mu Xueqing that it was time to start.
Mu Xueqing also nodded in response.
Then Qian Yunsheng took out the fragments of a magic weapon, slapped the fragments into powder, which he had specially bought from the ghost market for this demonstration, and then evenly sprinkled the powder on the grass on both sides.
After doing this, he took out another spiritual stone and stuffed it into the prepared formation.
A "buzz" sound,
A small formation began to take effect. The formation covered a piece of grass, creating the effect of a dark night, and even a crescent moon peeked out.
Then, as Mu Xueqing's eyes opened wider and wider, within a short while, the two pieces of grass changed.
The grassland that was not covered by the formation was still green and motionless, while on the other grassland, colorful and beautiful flowers bloomed.
Qian Yunsheng wiped his head with satisfaction. In fact, there was no sweat on his forehead at all. This only strengthened the image that he had put in a lot of effort in Mu Xueqing's mind.
He smiled and said: "This is Netherworld Grass, which is the most sensitive to demonic energy. As long as you plant it in a place where demons must pass by, after it has absorbed enough of the demonic aura, you will not see anything strange during the day. At night, it will This beautiful little flower blooms, and it won’t fade until daytime the next day.”
"If Miss Mu uses my grass, arrange for people to plant it everywhere during the day, and then guard all sides to prevent the monsters from escaping. At night, send people to check where the flowers are blooming, and naturally the search will be narrowed down. Range. After doing this twice, won’t this monster be easily captured?”
After Qian Yunsheng finished the demonstration, he looked at Mu Xueqing with a smile.
In fact, he was staring at Mu Xueqing extremely nervously, observing her every move.
Yesterday, through the communication talisman and my own insinuations, I guess the demon hasn't been caught yet.
But it is also very possible that Mu Xueqing already knew her identity and deliberately revealed it to herself, so that she could easily catch herself with one move.
Thinking of the possibility of falling into a trap, but having to do it, Qian Yunsheng once again hated himself for not getting rid of the turtle problem earlier.
Moreover, he also got bad news in the communication talisman. Sure enough, the soul-eating grass was not on Mu Xueqing's body. In this way, he would no longer have any luck and would have to participate.
Therefore, before Qian Yunsheng entered this gate, he actually prepared several desperate plans in case he was exposed.
If there really was a dragnet set up here and they were waiting to catch him, he would have no choice but to display his Soul-Capturing Banner and fight his way out.
Therefore, after he entered the courtyard, he was not in a hurry to enter the room. Instead, he first tried to use words to lure Mu Xueqing out of the house, offered to demonstrate immediately, and she succeeded in staying in the courtyard.
Then after he arranged and observed it, and saw Mu Xueqing's thoughtful look after his demonstration, Qian Yunsheng finally began to feel that the exposure he was worried about did not happen.
If everything he had seen so far was an illusion, and it was all a scene staged by Mu Xueqing to catch him.
So if you can act so realistically that you can't see it at all, then you can only admit defeat.
If the other party can perform so well, then I can only sigh, knowing that my loss is not unfair at all.
"Pah, pah, pah"
Just when Qian Yunsheng and Mu Xueqing were thinking about their own things, a burst of applause suddenly came from the door, which brought Mu Xueqing and Qian Yunsheng back to reality.
Mu Xueqing frowned when she saw clearly that it was the Young City Lord from the City Lord's Mansion.
These days, this person always likes to run here annoyingly. If he wasn't the son of the city lord, I wouldn't have much free time to talk to him.
Seeing that he had attracted everyone's attention with applause, Mr. Zhang walked in.
His eyes lit up when he saw Qian Yunsheng standing in the courtyard, and he quickly walked a few steps to Qian Yunsheng, raised his hands and bowed in a slightly exaggerated manner, and bowed deeply to Qian Yunsheng.
He said in very polite words: "In the past few days, Xiaoke, I have been lamenting day and night, worrying that my benefactor has been poisoned by monsters. I never thought that I would be lucky enough to meet my benefactor face to face today."
"Could it be that God saw my sincerity and protected my benefactor well? It's just that we said goodbye in a hurry that day, and I didn't even ask for my benefactor's name."
Qian Yunsheng smiled slightly. He had already observed that the young city lord was most likely to appear at this time.
You must know that the timing of his appearance was chosen repeatedly.
In addition to creating an opportunity for a chance encounter so that the young city lord could take the initiative to reveal the matter of the five thousand spirit stones, Qian Yunsheng had another consideration.
If by any chance the person who came to attend the appointment today was a trap set by Mu Xueqing, then it was possible that he would meet the young city lord at this time.
When the time comes, you can kill the general and use him as a hostage, and your chances of breaking out will be greater.
So far, Qian Yunsheng is very satisfied.
Not only did he not show up, as he was worried about, but Mr. Zhang also appeared in front of him without any surprise.
Qian Yunsheng pretended not to know much about etiquette and did not return the greeting. Instead, he waved his hands with the spirit of a child of the world and said: "People from the mountains and wilds do not deserve such a heavy courtesy. I wonder why the young gentleman calls me my benefactor?"
Seeing Qian Yunsheng's vulgarity, the Young City Master didn't know how to proceed.
You must know that he has received the most orthodox education, and it is not too much to say that he is fluent in a set of procedures, but when he encounters such a person who does not understand anything, he is simply dancing for a blind man to see.
However, he still remembered his father's words firmly and knew that now was the time to win people's hearts. Although his face turned slightly red, he still bowed hard and bowed again before standing up and saying, "My benefactor, don't you remember me?"
Then with an expression of sudden realization, he finally adjusted his body posture and said: "It was dark that night. Maybe my benefactor hadn't noticed my appearance. If it hadn't been for my benefactor who saved us on the boat a few nights ago, , lure the demon away, I’m afraid all the people on the boat will become the demon’s food.”
Thinking of his near-death experience that day, he actually said it sincerely.
Qian Yunsheng suddenly slapped his forehead and said: "It turns out that the person I rescued that day was actually the young master. I said that the big boat looked grand, but it turned out to be the young master's car."
"Actually, you don't need to be too polite, young master. It's the right thing for people of my generation to save people in times of crisis."
After Qian Yunsheng finished speaking, Mu Xueqing raised her eyebrows. In her impression, this person was not so bold.
Mr. Zhang shook his head, tapped the fan on his palm, and said: "If you receive a favor from someone, you should repay it with a spring of water."
"For my benefactor, it was just a matter of raising my hand, but for Xiaoke, it was a life-saving grace."
"Since my benefactor has come to Jixia City, how can I not let my little brother show his friendship as a landlord so that I can express my gratitude?"
"I have booked a banquet at the best Zuixiang Restaurant in the city six days ago, and I have been waiting for my benefactor to come. Since I am lucky enough to see my benefactor today, I hope my benefactor will not refuse!" Then he said again. Hand over.
After hearing Mr. Zhang's words, Qian Yunsheng felt excited. After planning for so long, he was about to get five thousand spiritual stones.
