"Have you heard that the Wang family's youngest son went missing the day before yesterday? Their family searched the entire Luoju Town but there was no trace of the child. Yesterday, they even invited the Immortal Lord of Gui Yi Sect. Tell me, the Wang family's son Can you be found?" In the lobby, a casual cultivator with a horned beard pulled three other casual cultivators while eating breakfast.
"It should be possible." The black-clothed monk sitting on his left said: "That is the Guiyi Sect, one of the four major sects in the world of cultivation. They are all the proud sons of heaven. It should not be difficult to find a few lost children."
Another female monk said: "I don't think so. Children have been missing in Luoju Town for a long time, and there are more than ten people before and after. There are many disciples of famous cultivators in the town, but no child has been found so far."
The monk in black didn't care: "Isn't that the proud son of Guiyi Sect who has not yet arrived?"
The female cultivator was about to argue on this matter, but suddenly several disciples wearing Guiyi Sect uniforms walked in at the door, and then she shut up in frustration.
Li Ying lowered her head and looked at the floating tea leaves in the cup, and was listening with great interest when their conversation came to an abrupt end.
She looked up and suddenly two people sat down in front of her.
A clear male voice said: "Fellow Daoist Cheng."
"Sister Li, so you are here."
'Mu Yueru' passed Xiao Zheng in front of her, walked directly to Li Ying and sat down, naturally picked up the jade spirit cake in front of her with one hand and put it into her mouth.
"You disappeared early in the morning, which made us very worried. Fortunately for you, you turned out to be here leisurely eating cakes."
Li Ying smiled apologetically at them and said sheepishly: "I'm really sorry. I was in a hurry to go out this morning and didn't tell you. It was because I didn't think well."
Xiao Zheng sat opposite her, raised his hand very naturally, pinched a piece of Jade Spirit Cake in front of her and put it into his mouth: "What is it that makes you so anxious?"
"Harmful!" Li Ying watched the two of them eating the cakes in front of her, feeling a little weird in her heart: "It's just that a thief entered the house, and I beat him away. Nothing happened."
"There's a thief?!"
'Mu Yueru' looked suspiciously at Li Ying up and down: "Sister Li, you don't look very rich, so why are you being cared about by thieves?"
"Yeah" Li Ying nodded and pretended to touch herself again.
Xiao Zheng looked away when Li Ying made a move, lowered his head and looked at the table, silent and not knowing what he was thinking.
"The intrusion into Wanxi Pavilion is not a trivial matter. I will report this matter to their manager when I get back. Your bamboo house is inconvenient for the time being. When I get back... I will just share the same house with you."
Xiao Zheng rolled the sweet Yuling Cake on his tongue, and the sweetness was released on his lips: "Her bamboo house is spacious and bright, and it is adjacent to me, so I will wrong Miss Cheng for the time being until we find a safer place to live. "
"I'm not wronged, I'm not wronged." Li Ying waved her hands repeatedly and said with a smile: "It's too late for me to be happy that I can live with sister Yueru. How can I be wronged?"
Mu Yueru nodded, holding onto her hand and smiling.
But no matter how she looked at it, she thought that smile was somewhat meaningful.
[Host, what a great opportunity. ] 79588 said without hesitation: [Isn’t this convenient for you to catch evil ghosts? 】
Good guy, he sent her directly to the evil ghost. Li Yingpi couldn't help but feel that she had been doing evil.
'Haha...' Li Yingzhihai rolled his eyes: 'Do you want this opportunity? If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Zheng and Mo Xun didn't know each other at all in the original work, I would have suspected that he was the one who introduced Mo Xungui to the first sect. '
[Ah this...] 79588 said with a sneer: [Isn’t it time to give me a pillow when I’m drowsy? Host, I believe you can do it, Gangba. 】
'roll! '
Li Ying changed the subject and said, "I've heard about the missing children in Luoju Town for a long time. Is this why you, Sister Xiao Daoyou Yueru, came here?"
"Exactly." Mu Yueru took the words and called the waiter to serve two more plates of jade spirit cakes: "I don't know who the evil spirit is, but he dared to cause trouble under the eyes of our Guiyi Sect. He is an innocent child, but he did it. It’s really abominable if you get it!”
"Yes." Li Ying nodded, "The child who was lost the day before yesterday has not been found yet."
Xiao Zheng frowned and shook his head: "We have searched hundreds of miles around Luoju Town, but there is no trace."
"It's just like……"
Li Ying took over: "It's like the world has evaporated."
Xiao Zheng nodded, tapping his fingertips on the round tabletop, once, twice...
There is no clue within the radius.
Li Ying asked: "What kind of evil spirits are there? Who is the mayor of this place? Have you ever asked the families who lost their children one by one?"
"I asked about it yesterday." Mu Yueru said: "Guhuang, Baoyu is good at hiding, living separately in Luchuan, supervising the summer heat, thousands of miles away. It can't be here."
Li Ying asked strangely: "Can't they just run over?"
Unexpectedly, 'Mu Yueru' was even more strange: "How did they get here? There are barriers between different states and rivers in the cultivation world to confine local monsters and prevent them from running around and causing harm to other states and rivers."
"So that's it..." Li Ying murmured, "There is actually a barrier."
'Mu Yueru' asked curiously: "Sister Li, this is common sense in the cultivation world. Where did you practice before? Why don't you even know this?"
She ate the pastry and added: "As for the mayor Wang Lie, he belongs to the Wang family who lost their youngest son the day before yesterday. I have asked several sect disciples to help find and solve the case, but they have found nothing."
"Other families who have lost their children can only plead and cry when they see us, and can't tell us any useful information."
Li Ying played with the teacup in her hand: "Don't lost children have anything in common?"
Xiao Zheng coughed lightly: "They are all over seven years old. Both men and women have spiritual roots and no cultivation."
79588 suddenly said: [The host is an evil cultivator! The children are in danger now. Please help the host as soon as possible! 】
Li Ying was startled by the sudden sound. She touched her ears subconsciously, "Seven years old, spiritual root, no cultivation..." She pretended to chew these words over and over again: "Could it be an evil cultivator?" ?”
"Evil cultivator?!" There was a hint of coldness in Mu Yueru's almond-shaped eyes, like an ice cave in the middle of winter.
Li Ying had a serious look on her face and repeated the words of 79588 in her mind: "A thousand seven-year-old boys with spiritual roots and no cultivation can cast 'Ghost Flags'."
Xiao Zheng was stunned, and his hand on the table suddenly tightened.
She continued to read out the lines in her mind one by one, her mind running rapidly: "You become wise at the age of three, and you become wise at the age of seven. Without cultivation, the soul can leave the body and enter reincarnation; if there is a spiritual root, the soul can leave the body and become a furnace. tripod."
"What day is it today?"
'Mu Yueru' was stunned by Li Ying's jumping question and said: "The seventh day of October."
"The seventh day of October?" Li Ying rubbed her brow impatiently: "What's so special about the seventh day of October?"
A cold female voice suddenly broke in: "Luozhuo Town will hold a ceremony on the seventh day of October. Tonight, the Yin Qi of Kaiya is the strongest, and they will hold a ceremony at Kaiya."
