Although there should be some clues related to the mastermind in these empty courtyards, Ye Qingcheng is not in a hurry. If there are clues, they will not disappear in the past few days. He will slowly sneak into these courtyards to investigate when he has time. Not too late either. For him now, the place that may have the most clues is the Shushan office in front of him. The first person who disappeared was the disciple of Shushan, and then the entire office lost contact with the sect.
Several groups of disciples sent later did not find any survivors at first. In the end, even they themselves lost contact with the sect. The sect had no idea what the situation was here. They could only wait for themselves. Come find out.
After a little preparation, Ye Qingcheng and the other five nodded to each other and walked towards the courtyard with high vigilance. When they opened the courtyard door with their respective identity tokens, they even thought they might be attacked. Yet it was surprisingly quiet.
According to intelligence, the last group of Shushan disciples, the previous group, lost contact with the sect just three days after they made regular reports to the sect. From this, we can imagine what the mastermind behind this Qingfeng Town is doing. The speed is beyond human imagination.
Therefore, Ye Qingcheng thought that their group might encounter an attack soon. However, they appeared in the airspace of Qingfeng Town with such a high profile, and even had Sha Zhan to report the news in advance, but there was no expected attack. This is really It's incredible.
Unless the other party saw the details of their team, but in his opinion, this was absolutely impossible. From the time they came to Liyang City and Qingfeng Town, all their actions and words were recorded in his mind. There is nothing that could reveal the strength of their group. This includes Wuying. Although he did not tell Wuying that there was a problem with Shazhan at the beginning, he also asked about the conversation between the two of them on the way here, and there was indeed no information about their strength revealed from it. question, and Sha Zhan was really trying every means to collect intelligence from Wuying, but what he collected was very limited.
However, if you don't come, don't come. On the contrary, he is happy to be at ease. If someone does come to attack, as long as it is within the detection range of his talented mind-seeking Qi, there will be no problem.
After entering Shushan's office in Qingfeng Town, Ye Qingcheng asked everyone to disperse and collect clues left by previous disciples, including himself, and began to carefully explore room by room. Then he discovered quite a few problems. The first was the cleanliness of this house. It was so abnormal. No one had lived in this courtyard for a long time, but it was still very clean. Moreover, although It seemed that someone wanted to cover it up, but he discovered that there were still traces of people living here recently.
The access control and protective array of the Shushan Office are quite strong. As long as you don't use your own authorized identity token to enter from the main entrance, there is no way to enter the courtyard from other places. Even if you want to enter by force, you can only destroy the array. Along the way, it just seemed that the circle was still intact, and it didn't look like someone had forced its way through.
So, who lives here and cleans it regularly?
Judging from the extent of the dust, the guy who wanted to cover up the traces of people should have stopped cleaning in the past few days. I am afraid he started covering it up after receiving the news that his group of Shushan disciples had arrived in Liyang City.
The more obvious this behavior was, the more suspicious it made him. Why would anyone dare to live here even though they knew this was Shushan's office in Qingfeng Town? And why can he enter and exit the magic circle freely?
Ye Qingcheng handled many cases when he was a police officer, and many of them were similar, which made him think of it all at once. Could it be that he was the disciple behind the affair and disappearance in this office? ? Or could it be that there was a mole among the later batches of disciples? It is precisely because there are insiders that it is much easier for the mastermind behind the scenes to deal with them.
The reason why he dared to live in this courtyard was because he thought that the sect would not send any more disciples here. Indeed, if it were him, he would indeed think like this. Although the entire Qingfeng Town has a large population, the ancient town in the core area , most of the cultivators knew each other, and the ghost couldn't live anywhere else, as that would attract others' attention, so he could only live in this courtyard. Only when the sect sends disciples to come, he will hide in other places. If this person can be found, most of this series of mysteries can be solved.
Could Sha Zhan be communicating with this person? Ye Qingcheng was so suspicious.
However, after communicating with Huan Chenyu, he can be sure that this suspicion has been eliminated. The person who can directly take away the transmission notes in front of Huan Chenyu cannot be an immortal-level existence. Even the most outstanding disciples cannot. It is possible to survive the golden thunder tribulation and achieve that level within such a time period. In other words, the mastermind behind the scenes is at least a Golden Immortal-level existence, or there is at least one Golden Immortal under him.
After visiting several houses, he found that he could not find any more clues. It seemed that the person had made sufficient preparations before leaving, or that there was more than one person living here. ? It's a pity that they didn't even leave a single footprint, otherwise he would have been able to see something.
Wait... If there are no footprints in this courtyard, then there must be no footprints outside the courtyard...
Ye Qingcheng immediately rushed to the door of Shushan Office. After confirming that no one was around, he took off the cloth. After getting used to the light for a while, he hurriedly checked around. It's a pity that except for the footprints of the five of them when they came, there are no other footprints around, not even the footprints of pedestrians. It seems that even the locals of Qingfeng Town dare not come to this nearby area. , for fear that he would be the next one to be killed.
Then the question arises. If the people living in this courtyard did not leave by walking, could it be that they left directly by air as soon as they left the gate? You must know that you cannot use space magical powers such as air control and short flash in the courtyard, but there are not even a trace of footprints or other traces near the door.
After putting on the blindfold again, Ye Qingcheng briefly communicated with Wuying, who had already explored many houses, and found that even Wuying could not find any useful clues. As an elite disciple from Shadow Peak, Wuying is very good at hidden assassinations, but even he has to admit that if he wants to leave this courtyard without leaving any information, it is indeed not something that a Celestial Level disciple can do. of.
