Chapter 33 Your Jade Pendant Lost
When Jiang Yanlu and others arrived in Fenggao City, they stayed at the City Lord's Mansion.

Hearing that the disciples of Taixuan Sword Sect were coming, the city lord rushed out to greet him.

Jiang Yanlu raised his eyes and looked over. The city lord was about fifty years old, with a short and fat body.

Whether it is the clothes he wears or the fingers he wears on his hands, he can reveal his affluent life.

But his face was haggard, his temples were grizzled, and the smile on his face was forced out.

It must be because of the monster in Fenggao City, he has worried a lot.

The lord of Fenggao City invited Jiang Yanlu and his party into the mansion.

Xiao Jue looked serious, and said directly: "The situation is serious, please tell us what happened in the past few months in detail, so that the people of Fenggao City can be restored to peace as soon as possible."

The mayor nodded.

It was late autumn at this time, and there were still layers of fine sweat on the city lord's forehead.

Jiang Yanlu observed the city lord's movements and demeanor while listening to the city lord's detailed account of what happened in the past few months.

An hour later, the dry-mouthed city lord picked up the teacup by his side and drank the tea in it in one gulp.

Jiang Yanlu frowned, "You mean, that monster will randomly take away a woman who has not left the pavilion every three days at night, and marry it?"

"That's right."

The city lord moistened his throat and continued, "The monster's whereabouts are uncertain. No one knows which woman's boudoir it will appear at night. It is also because of this reason that the monks invited before have not found the monster."

"However, a few days ago, a cultivator who was in the Dzogchen Realm of Foundation Establishment squatted on that monster outside a woman's boudoir. Unfortunately, he lost to the monster in his cultivation and was injured by it."

"I really had no choice, so I wrote to Taixuan Jianzong."

Jiang Yanlu: "Is that monk still in the mansion?"

The Lord of Fenggao City shook his head bitterly: "He took the spirit stone and left after waking up, and I don't know where he went."

Xiao Jue asked: "Before that monk left, did he tell you what the monster looks like?"

The Lord of Fenggao City lowered his eyebrows and thought hard, before saying: "He didn't see the face clearly, he only remembered that it was wearing a red dress."

red clothes.

Jiang Yanlu thought about it, could it be that he was happy to serve?

Xin Zhu suddenly asked: "You said in your letter that the last time that monster came to Fenggao City was one day ago, so we still have two days to prepare. How can we find it?"

Jiang Yanlu replied casually: "We can only wait for it to come out by itself."

at night.

Jiang Yanlu was meditating cross-legged on the bed when Xin Zhu's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Junior Sister, are you asleep?"

After Jiang Yanlu adjusted his breath, he opened his eyes, "No, Senior Sister, come in."

Xin Zhu pushed the door open and entered.

She sat down on the bed next to Jiang Yanlu, frowned, and said, "Junior Sister, you said that this monster is not the same as the monster that wanted to kidnap the younger brother and marry him?"

"However, if the monster wants to get married, it only needs one woman. Why does it take away a woman in Fenggao City every three days? And only take the women in Fenggao City?"

"For some reason, I always feel that there is something strange about this matter, but I can't tell what it is. Do you have this feeling?"

Jiang Yanlu nodded, and said in a low voice: "I also feel that something is wrong. The monster should not come tonight. We will go out of the house tomorrow morning to see if there are any other clues."

The plot of the original book is written from the perspective of the heroine Yun Qing.

Therefore, the plot of Fenggao City is not mentioned in the book.

Jiang Yanlu didn't know exactly what happened, so he could only watch slowly step by step.

Xin Zhu nodded: "Okay, then you rest earlier, I'll go back first."

Jiang Yanlu practiced all night.

Early the next morning, she opened her eyes, and aura flashed in her eyes.

Jiang Yanlu got up, twitched a body cleansing formula, pushed the door and went out.

Standing outside the door was a servant of the City Lord's Mansion. He was about to knock on the door when he saw Jiang Yanlu coming out of it.

The servant took a step back, lowered his head, and said respectfully: "The city lord invites you to have breakfast."

As soon as Jiang Yanlu arrived at the City Lord's Mansion yesterday, he used his spiritual sense to search the entire mansion.

In the city lord's mansion, the one with the highest cultivation level is the city lord who has perfected Qi training.

The dark guards hiding in the dark are also in the Qi training period.

The other servants don't have aura fluctuations, so they should be five spiritual roots that cannot be cultivated.

But the strange thing is that there is not a single servant girl in the huge city lord's mansion, all of them are servants.

The City Lord's Mansion also seemed to have been renovated not long ago, and the vermilion lacquer hadn't dried completely in some places.

When Jiang Yanlu followed his servants to the flower hall, Qiyue and others were already sitting there.

After breakfast, the three of them went out to the street together.

There were still not many people on the street, and the shops were tightly closed. After walking for half an hour, I only saw steam rising from the inside of a shop selling steamed stuffed buns.

Jiang Yanlu was just about to go over to ask about the situation.

Not far away, I saw three people with burdens on their backs and looking flustered, walking in their direction.

Jiang Yanlu walked forward calmly, and when he passed them, he twitched his fingers lightly.

The jade pendant hanging from the other party's waist fell off.

Jiang Yanlu picked up the jade pendant on the ground.

He patted one of them on the shoulder, raised the jade pendant in his hand, and said, "Friend Daoist, your jade pendant has fallen."

The three turned their heads.

Through their behavior, Jiang Yanlu guessed that the three of them were a family of three.

The two on the side are a middle-aged couple, and the younger woman in the middle should be their daughter.

Judging by their posture, they should be planning to move out of Fenggao City.

The man took the jade pendant from Jiang Yanlu's hand, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist."

After seeing Jiang Yanlu's appearance, his expression changed.

Jiang Yanlu took advantage of the situation and asked doubtfully: "Dear friend, we have heard that Fenggao City is lively and prosperous, and today is the first time to visit Fenggao City. how many people?"

Perhaps because Jiang Yanlu returned his jade pendant, he stopped and explained:
"To be honest, there is a monster here in Fenggao City, who specially kidnaps beautiful girls who haven't left the cabinet at night."

"Even monks whose cultivation base is at the late stage of Foundation Establishment couldn't capture him. Many people in the city were afraid that their daughters would be taken away by monsters, so they moved away with their families."

"We are also planning to leave Fenggao City today." The man sighed, "If it weren't for the safety of my little girl, who would want to leave my hometown."

After hearing what he said, the woman hugging her daughter couldn't help but wipe away two tears.

She followed up and said: "Several fellow Taoists, I see that you are kind-hearted and good-looking, so I advise you not to stay in Fenggao City for a long time. If there is no important matter, you can leave as soon as possible."
