After passing through the cannon fodder villain in the book, the heroine confessed to me

Chapter 230 Divide into Two Ways, Friends

The alleyway they chose has a poor environment and is surrounded by dilapidated courtyards. It is most likely a place where beggars and vagrants gather - there is no shortage of such people in this era.

Because of this, unless there is clear information about an intrusion, even patrols will generally not come here looking for trouble.Therefore, the four people talking here are still safe for the time being.

Jiang Miao frowned and expressed her thoughts one by one.

"First of all, the atmosphere in this city is wrong. It does not feel like the joy of suddenly finding a treasure, but an indescribable sense of depression. Some clues of this can be seen from the faces of the patrolling disciples.

Secondly, there is the number of these patrolling disciples.The Haidao Sect is only a second-rate sect, and the strongest sect leader, Jiang Cheng, only has the strength of the Soul Gathering Realm.With so many shrines and purple mansions, I am afraid that they already have all the power of the entire Hai Dao Sect.Is it reasonable to take them all out for patrol in one go?

Finally, and most importantly, generally speaking, the patrol team is either searching for a certain target or guarding against foreign enemies.But these people's attention seems to be focused more on people's houses.This is very strange. "

Bai Yuanqing, who was vaguely self-conscious about admiration, asked with a very wink.

"What's weird?"

"Attitude. It makes sense to say that they are worried about the comfort of the people because of some kind of existence, so they pay attention frequently. But their attitude seems not to be worried about the safety of the people, but more concerned about whether the people are staying in their rooms. Hit this thing."

The person who answered Bai Yuanqing was not Jiang Miao, but Lexu who looked thoughtful.After saying this, he closed his eyes and felt it, and then added a little uncertainly.

"Speaking of which, the surrounding spiritual energy gives me a strange feeling, as if... there is a faint demonic energy."

"Demon energy? Are you sure?"

The three of them were shocked when they heard this, and Bai Yuanqing immediately asked.

"Not sure, this breath is too faint, so faint that I'm not even sure if it really exists."

Lexu's ambiguous words made the three of them feel nervous. Vaguely, they all seemed to smell a big conspiracy.

"Okay, if there is anything strange, go and investigate. What can you guess by guessing here? The top priority now is to find a place to find out the information."

After a long time, Qin Yunshuo took the lead to interrupt the thoughts of several people. Then he raised his finger and pointed at the tall building not far away and continued.

"It is too inefficient for four people to work together, but the situation is unclear now, and the risk of acting alone is too high. Let's do it like when we first entered the city, divided into two groups. Brother Le and Junior Sister Bai, you two go to the west city, I and Miaomiao is heading to the east city, where we will meet in the end."

That building is located right in the center of Linhai City, and is much higher than the residential buildings around it, making it very conspicuous.At a glance, one can tell that even if it is not the residence of Jiang Cheng, the master of Haidaomen, it must be a very important place.

If no clues can be found elsewhere, after the four of them meet up, they can go there to try their luck.Lexu thought for a while and felt that Qin Yunshuo's arrangement made sense, so he nodded and added something else when he thought of other things.

"By the way, if you encounter a suitable and uninhabited place on the road, make a note of it. No one knows how long we will have to stay here, so it's best to settle in advance."

"Okay, if anything happens, please contact me on the jade slip. In addition, if you encounter an emergency, you can activate this jade slip. There is my master's sword energy there, which will definitely protect you two."

It's okay for others, but if they encounter Jiang Cheng in the Soul Gathering Realm, with the power of Lexu and Bai Yuanqing, they don't have the capital to fight against him yet.

Anyway, Jiang Miao also has jade slips and other things, so just in case, he might as well lend his own to the two of them.

Speaking of which, every time I took out this jade slip, it seemed that it was just to lend it to others, and I had never used it once.

Of course, being able to use such a thing means that the user himself is almost certain to die, so if you can't use it, it's best not to use it.Le Shu naturally understood what Sword Master Ji Wufeng's sword energy meant.However, what he cared more about than the jade slip was Qin Yunshuo's action of directly throwing the jade slip to him, and Bai Yuanqing's indifferent attitude.

To be honest, it would be more reassuring to give this kind of thing to a junior sister from the same sect, right?It doesn't matter if it's thrown directly to him...forget it, his friends are all a bunch of weirdos, and it's not surprising that they do anything.

That's right, friend, he Lexu now also has friends.

Shaking his head to suppress these subtle thoughts for the time being, Lexu nodded solemnly.

"Don't worry, Lemou will definitely protect Miss Bai."

The four of them turned around and headed in opposite directions.However, Qin Yunshuo and Jiang Miao, who had excellent hearing, heard Bai Yuanqing's voice the moment they turned around.

"Why do you insist on protecting me? Have you started to like me?"

Lexu didn't answer, but his pace obviously accelerated a little.

Qin Yunshuo estimated that Lexu's mentality at the moment was probably something like "A girl of common faith is so humble", right?
Shaking his head and watching the two people leave, Qin Yunshuo glanced at Jiang Miao.

"Shall we go too?"

"Ah."

Linhai City is not particularly large, but it has a permanent population of several hundred thousand.As a city with developed maritime transportation, if it were not for the closure of the city, the flow of people here would only be greater at this moment.

Along the way, Qin Yunshuo and Jiang Miao saw countless inns, taverns and casinos.However, because there are no people, these places that used to be the busiest now look a bit depressed and run-down.

Of course, just because there are no guests, doesn’t mean there’s no one inside.At least Qin Yunshuo could feel that the boss and waiter must still be inside.

But this is very abnormal. Linhai City was closed very suddenly, and there was no news that a large number of outsiders were deported beforehand.So the question is, the locals have their own places to live, and the inn is empty, where have all the outsiders gone?
After looking at the third inn with no guests at all, Qin Yunshuo and Jiang Miao looked at each other, and in tacit agreement, they turned their attention to the building that Qin Yunshuo pointed out just now, similar to the city lord's palace.

At present, it seems that it is the only place that can accommodate such a large population.

"Don't rush to conclusions yet, let's finish it after reading it."

Qin Yunshuo stretched out his hand to stop what Jiang Miao was about to say. Everything was not clear yet and there was no point in talking about it.

Jiang Miao also understood this truth, nodded and started the boring investigation work again.

Due to the patrols that passed by the city from time to time, the progress of the two could not be accelerated at all. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, there were still large areas that they had never been to.Come to think of it, Lexu's place should be similar.

"This can't continue like this. In my opinion, ordinary residential buildings and the like have no value for observation. Let's choose some luxurious places or important facilities. I always feel that there must be the answer we want."

No matter what happens, as long as they find a place where these disciples rest, the two of them can try to catch a lone person. It's better than wandering around like headless chickens, right?

When Jiang Miao heard the words, she nodded her head to indicate her agreement, but the two of them were attracted by a passing patrol team before they had time to act.
