When the sky was getting dark, everyone in the Jin family noticed something strange in the mansion. Ji Changyue and Qin Yang had been out of the city for a long time.
The white nightmare beast was wrapped in a layer of spiritual energy. The spiritual energy was so strong that no matter how hard it struggled, it could not escape.
Ji Changyue pinched the nightmare beast from Qin Yang's hand, poked it with her fingertips, and the spiritual power ball rolled in her palm. Following the spiritual power ball, the nightmare beast was thrown to pieces, with stars in its eyes.
The nightmare beast cannot speak and can only accuse Ji Changyue with its eyes.
But its eyes are too small, and most people can't really see what it expresses.
Ji Changyue had enough fun and threw the nightmare beast to Qin Yang.
"Why did the nightmare beast appear here?"
This place is relatively close to Qingwu City. Although it is a small city, there are not many monks who come and go every day. Apart from the monsters that have transformed and can hide their identities and the monsters that have been kept in captivity and contracted by others, the remaining The monsters will not easily come to the cultivator's territory.
Especially when attacking monks close to a large sect like Qingya Sect.
This is easy to spot.
Qin Yang randomly found a spirit beast bag and put the nightmare beast in it.
"Nightmare beasts like to hang out in the market and create nightmares. The more people there are, the easier it is to perform. The man may have been to other cities with a large population before and was possessed by nightmare beasts."
"When I came back here later, I had a dream that I couldn't get the nightmare animal house, so I became greedy."
This explanation was quite reasonable, Ji Changyue nodded.
The two of them walked on the not-so-wide path and saw a few monks here and there.
Most of them are young monks who have not yet established the foundation, and only a few have achieved the foundation.
Ji Changyue would check with them about the news ahead from time to time. There was no city at night, so he would spend the night in the wild, and his life was very comfortable.
Mingzhen asked them to walk, just to let them experience it, and not to rush them to Fanjing City in a hurry.
Through communication, Ji Changyue learned that monsters have appeared in many cities recently. The levels are not high, but they can hurt people.
Whether it is a big city or a small city, almost everyone has encountered it.
However, there were very few monsters, and the monks quickly eliminated them.
A collective invasion of monsters into the city?
If they were in large quantities, it could be said to be a tide of beasts, but one or two of them would really not attract much attention.
But no matter how unobtrusive it is, the same problem appears in many places, which makes people think deeply.
His eyebrows hidden under the curtain moved slightly, Qin Yang said to Ji Changyue: "Let's go to the next city."
If the two of them just kept going, they would still be very fast.
Four days later, the two successfully entered Gouyue City.
The city was as lively as ever, the only difference was that everyone was discussing the same thing.
Ji Changyue cast her eyes on a friendly-looking male cultivator on the street, walked over with a smile on her face.
She pretended to be curious, "Fellow Taoist, I heard you all talking about the long-armed beast. Did something happen?"
The male cultivator looked at the two men, one tall and one short, and said with a squinted smile: "Are you from other places?"
Ji Changyue nodded, "This is the first time for me and my eldest brother to come to Gouyue City. We are not sure what happened."
As she spoke, she looked at the male cultivator with a thirst for knowledge, "Fellow Taoist, can you help us brothers clear up our doubts?"
The male cultivator had been discussing this matter with his companions, but when he saw that Ji Changyue's attitude was acceptable, he clicked his tongue.
"Come on, I'll tell you."
He motioned for the two of them to go to the tea stall nearby.
Ji Changyue understood and ordered two pots of tea and several plates of cakes.
Qin Yang watched her movements, paused, picked up the kettle on the table, and filled it for several people.
The male cultivator nodded with satisfaction, then cleared his throat and began to speak.
"A month ago, people started to go missing in Gouyue City. Because the missing people were mortals at first, no one paid much attention."
He looked at the two of them and said, "In the world of cultivation, the lives of mortals are the lowest, not even as precious as those of monsters. So when people disappear, they disappear. Maybe they were eaten by monsters outside, or were accidentally eaten by some monks. killed."
"But the number of mortals missing is increasing, and some Qi-training monks are also missing."
The male cultivator's voice was solemn, "Although Gouyue City is not a first-class large city, it is rich in resources, especially the Zhou family who is related to the Immortal Sect."
"The Zhou family didn't care at first and only sent a few people to investigate."
"The leader is the youngest son of the Zhou family who just established the foundation. Since he went to investigate the matter, he has never gone back. The soul lamps of the group who went out were all extinguished, and the Zhou family realized that something was wrong."
The male cultivator's voice became lower and lower, "In the end, it was found that it was a long-armed beast that was about to break through the eighth level. In the cave where the long-armed beast was hiding, the Zhou family found the remains of the young master."
"The head of the Zhou family was furious and sent people to surround and destroy the long-armed beast."
After speaking, he sighed, "You said, if I had gone to check earlier, wouldn't it have happened like this?"
"That young master is handsome and talented. He shouldn't have died."
Ji Changyue said nothing. In the final analysis, the people of Gouyue City did not have a strong sense of crisis.
In other words, they have been comfortable for too long, thinking that nothing will happen to them in the city.
No one expected that monsters would dare to sneak into the city full of monks and start killing.
Ji Changyue thanked the male monk, paid the spirit stones, and prepared to leave.
The sound of suona floated from far away, and the yellow paper in the sky was blown away by the wind.
The people in the market immediately dispersed to both sides, and everyone looked towards the direction where the yellow paper was floating.
The male cultivator also stood up, glanced into the distance, and sighed: "Today is the day when the young master of the Zhou family is buried."
White flags fluttered in the wind, and low weeping sounds reached my ears.
Ji Changyue's mind suddenly went blank for a moment, and a black flag shrouded in black energy appeared in his mind, accompanied by a shrill scream.
The voice was childish and familiar.
"Changyue!"
Qin Yang's call came to her ears, and Ji Changyue suddenly woke up.
Before he could speak to Qin Yang, the team was already in front of him.
Black flags and white flags kept alternating in my mind, and the pain penetrated into my soul, as if it was being burned by fire, or like being cut into pieces with a knife.
Ji Changyue held her head tightly, frowning, the blood on her face faded, and her figure was shaky.
"elder sister."
The clear voice is like the best medicine. The pressure relaxes and the pain suddenly disappears.
When I opened my eyes again, I was no longer on the street.
Qin Yang looked at her worriedly, "What's wrong with you?"
The sudden change made his heart tighten, and there was still fear in his eyes.
Ji Changyue leaned against the wall, breathing slowly. When she calmed down completely, she looked at Qin Yang: "I seem to be able to connect to the kid's memory, and I can also feel the same."
The voice she heard belonged to Ah Tang, and it was shriller and more painful than any she had heard before.
Qin Yang naturally knew who the little ghost was, Ah Tang, that remnant soul.
It is rare for a monk to be able to empathize with the remnant soul, but it is not impossible.
Qin Yang asked, "What did you see?"
Her situation was really not good at that time, so those experiences must have been bad. (End of chapter)
