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

Chapter 233 Calling Questions
"Could it be that the people from the Inferi in the North Tomb are behind this matter?"

Jiang Miao's expression became serious. The reason why they dared to sneak in when the situation was unknown was mainly because the Hai Dao Sect was just a second-rate sect.

Even if a strong Soul Gathering Realm master who is the sect leader takes action, with Ji Wufeng's jade slips around, they can still overturn the table.

But now, suddenly joining a sect that is on the same level as Hanyue Immortal Sect, things are not going well.

Qin Yunshuo shook his head, interrupting Jiang Miao's thoughts.

"Probably not. Although the monster just now is indeed a corpse puppet, the refining method is quite crude. Compared with the Yin Corpse of the Bei Tomb who is skilled in this method, it is more like the work of an evil cultivator who has obtained some fur inheritance."

After a small and subtle spoiler, Qin Yunshuo straightened his expression and said solemnly.

"Okay, no matter what is going on, in short, since the other party can make Jiang Cheng bow his head, then his strength is at the soul gathering level at least. We are not the ones who can confront him head-on. If we want to intervene in this matter, we must outsmart him first. . It’s getting late now, so let’s go meet Brother Le and the others first.”

Jiang Miao naturally had no objection, and the two of them followed the path they came from and rushed towards the mysterious City Lord's Mansion.

Since I had figured out the patrol's route, my return was much faster than when I arrived.It only took half an hour to arrive near the city lord's palace, where Le Shu and Bai Yuanqing had been waiting for a long time.

"Miaomiao, Senior Brother Qin, why have you been gone for so long? Did you discover anything?"

When Bai Yuanqing saw the two of them finally coming back, she first stepped forward to look at them and made sure they were not injured before asking.

"I did find something like this..."

He briefly told the two of them what he had just seen and heard. After listening, Lexu touched his chin thoughtfully.

"strangeness."

"what happened?"

"According to what you said, if Haidaomen really colluded with evil cultivators to refine corpse puppets, why did they choose the location there? Wouldn't it be more secretive to put it in the city lord's mansion?"

Bai Yuanqing was stunned for a moment and guessed with some uncertainty: "Is it because the city has been closed down and ordinary people are ordered to stay at home and are not allowed to go out, so they think it is the same everywhere? Or except for the city lord's palace, they have dispersed arrangements We visited several places, after all, the cunning rabbit has three burrows.”

Lexu shook his head, with a hint of seriousness in his eyes.

"It's not possible. We just walked around in the west of the city and didn't find anything suspicious. Brother Yunshuo and the others spent a long time and only found this one place in the east of the city. If it's as you said There are three Cunning Rabbit Caves, so it’s not like this is the only house that’s special, right?”

"Brother Le is right. There must be something unusual about that house. Of course, the City Lord's Mansion, as the source of all this, will not be simple either."

Qin Yunshuo pondered for a moment and turned his gaze to the only place with firelight around him.

"What do you mean, let's go in and take a look together? Or does Brother Le want to go to that house first, so we can split into two groups?"

"Forget it, since you guys didn't find anything wrong there, I guess the result will be the same when I go there. However, since the other party has closed the city, it doesn't matter when you go to the city lord's mansion. Even at night, those people may still Be more vigilant. How about we find a place to stay and explore after daybreak?"

Lexu's words made sense, and the four of them had indeed been wandering around all day.The body was not tired, but the mind was tired, so after deciding to check again tomorrow, the four of them walked towards an empty house that they had been eyeing for a long time, planning to rest for a night first.

Qin Yunshuo greeted a few people to leave. When he turned around, he quietly put his right hand behind his back and threw out a piece of brass fragment the size of a palm.

Since he was walking at the back of the team and his movements were extremely concealed, none of the other three people noticed.

After entering the room, Jiang Miao said to the sword spirit in his heart, "Someone will come and remind me immediately" and then began a detailed review. "The water in Linhai City seems to be much deeper than we thought. I thought that Haidaomen just got some kind of treasure, so the city was temporarily closed. Unexpectedly, there are also evil cultivators here. I always feel, It seems that we have accidentally stumbled into a big conspiracy, right?"

The room is not big, and the facilities in the room only include a table, a stool and a bed.A few people simply spread a layer of blankets on the ground and sat on the ground.

Anyway, they don't really need to sleep. They can just meditate to refresh themselves. It doesn't matter whether they have a bed or not.

Seeing Jiang Miao starting to review, Lexu simply took out a pen and paper from his storage bag and started writing and drawing on it.

"Let's start from the beginning. First of all, the reaction of the people in the fishing village lets us know that Hai Daomen must have salvaged some kind of treasure from the sea. At least, in their eyes, it should be regarded as a treasure.

Therefore, after they issued a seal order to the fishermen, they transported them all the way back to the city and ordered the city to be sealed.Is this okay? "

"No problem, that should be it."

Lexu nodded, put an arrow between the two sentences on the paper, "Fishing Village Gets Treasures" and "Closed City" to indicate the causal relationship, and then continued.

“The closure of the city was quite sudden. In addition to local residents, there must be a large number of outsiders, including many casual cultivators with certain strength.

From the few words of the patrol team, we can know that these people are basically controlled in the city lord's palace.To put it cruelly, they have either turned into corpse puppets now, or are about to turn into corpse puppets.

From this we can know that the 'that lord' mentioned by the disciples of Hai Dao Sect must be an evil cultivator.And it was he who single-handedly led this tragedy. "

This was also an obvious reasoning, so several people nodded without raising any objection.

Lexu picked up the pen again and drew a closed-loop arrow between "Missing Loose Cultivator", "Corpse Puppet" and "Powerful Evil Cultivator".

"This is basically all the clues we have so far. The question now is, what is the connection between "Debao Seal the City" and "Evil Corpse Puppet". And what is the purpose of the other party. Understand. Knowing this, we can figure everything out and then make plans accordingly.”

Qin Yunshuo just wanted to applaud Lexu. Is this the joy of following a top student?Love it, love it, this kind of teammate who can help you clarify your thoughts without using your brain in the blink of an eye is really great.

I originally thought that I had already guessed the identity of my opponent, and was worried about how to reveal it to Jiang Miao and Lexu without leaving any trace.Now that Lexu analyzed it like this, his little information seemed to have suddenly become worthless.

Jiang Miao also nodded. She was a smart person and guessed Lexu's plan as soon as she heard it.

"For the answers to these two questions, we will definitely gain something from going to the City Lord's Mansion. At least, as long as we find the imprisoned casual cultivators, we can figure out the matters related to the corpse puppets."

"In that case, what are you waiting for? Take the time to rest, and as soon as daybreak, we will sneak into the city lord's mansion."

Bai Yuanqing's impatient look made Jiang Miao couldn't help but chuckle.

This girl didn't hear the danger of the matter at all. She looked so excited. She probably just thought it was fun to sneak into the enemy's hinterland, right?
Forget it, whether it's using your brain or your hands, the three of you are enough. She is not good at this in the first place, so there is no need to force anything.

Thinking like this, Jiang Miao was about to ask Bai Yuanqing not to jump too much and to be with him tomorrow, but Le Shu spoke first.

"Miss Yuan Qing is right, but the danger in the city lord's mansion must be ten times more dangerous than today. You have to follow me closely tomorrow, cough, follow us closely, be careful not to get hurt."

"Well, understand, I will definitely not run around, let alone cause you trouble. When the time comes, I will do whatever you tell me, Brother Le."

Jiang Miao:? ? ?
Wait a minute, what did you just call each other?Miss Yuanqing?Brother Le?

Did you two really explore the west of the city carefully today?Why do we suddenly become intimate when we come back from a stroll?Don't let me flirt with you when I should be doing serious things, you bastard!
