Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 71 Meeting Wu Cheng Again
The group of people stopped talking and walked carefully through the fog.

Zhou Li was also very careful. He originally thought that You Su was much stronger than him, but he was a blind man after all. In such a situation where his spiritual consciousness could not be developed, he would inevitably be restricted. But he ignored a blind man's sensitivity to sounds, smells and other senses. At this point, he no longer dared to look down on You Su after thanking him.

Not long after, several people had arrived at the side of the City Lord's Mansion. The mist was shrouded in fog, and only the faint outline of the ancient City Lord's Mansion could be revealed.

"who!"

Someone shouted loudly in the mist, and the sounds of drawing and drawing swords sounded one after another.

Zhou Lize replied: "Sect Master Lu! It's me! Zhou Li!"

Then the sound of a sword being sheathed was heard, and six monks with stern faces and breathless faces walked out of the mist. The leader was Lu Yang, who was entrusted by Lu Muchun to be the master of the sect that morning.

His temperament has been completely different. He may have been an elegant scholar before, but now he has become a cold-faced sect leader.

"Did you bring them all back?" Lu Yang asked coldly, holding his sword with one hand.

"Well, there are sixteen people in total."

"Yes, you have worked hard these past few days. After bringing them in, tell the government officials their names, and then you can take the brothers to rest for a while and let Liang Hong take over for you." Lu Yang ordered in an orderly manner.

Zhou Li nodded, bowed, and then led everyone forward.

Behind the thick fog was a side door. Zhou Li told everyone to enter quickly and orderly after opening the door to avoid entering unnecessary fog, and everyone followed his instructions.

After entering the door, there were monks patrolling the mansion. After Zhou Li greeted one of them, he walked to a flower bed. After twisting some mechanism, the carp pond in front of him turned out of thin air, revealing a large burrow. He quickly directed everyone to jump in one after another, and then the carp pond returned to its original position, blocking the spreading fog.

You Su sighed in his heart that the emergency measures taken by the City Lord's Mansion were indeed in place.

The group of people went down the slope again. You Su opened his consciousness and realized that this was a huge cave with many people densely packed inside.

Several government officials came forward and asked each of them for their names. After counting, they were taken to a specific area to receive water and food. Finally, they found an open space and settled a group of sixteen people. Zhou Li also left after telling You Su the area where he rested.

When everyone saw that there were so many people in the auspicious cave, they felt a lot more at ease, and they popped up from time to time, looking for their acquaintances among the crowds of different sizes.

You Su and Ji Lingruo were sitting in a corner where no one noticed, cuddling each other. Seeing that Ji Lingruo was still silent, You Su took the initiative to find the girl's green hand and naturally held it gently.

"Junior sister, are you okay?"

"Yes." Ji Lingruo nodded and leaned closer to You Su.

The two of them had nothing to say, only their close shoulders exchanged a thousand words.

……

It was now the end of the ugly season, and the moonlight was not as bright as the sunlight, which made the dark mist appear even deeper.

Every two hours, people from the six major sects will change shifts and be stationed outside the side entrance, becoming the first line of defense of Jixiang Cave.

However, Lu Yang's day's turn was over, but he did not go to rest.

Although like other sects, he divided the sect's strength into two or three teams and took turns to fight, but whenever it was the turn of his sect's people, he would come out to accompany them and take the lead.

His grandfather's life and death are still uncertain. Before he left, he entrusted him with the position of sect leader. Many people in the sect had objections to this. He takes care of everything and hopes that he can prove himself through actions.

The night was dark, and his eyes could hardly see anything, except for the sound of his breathing and that of others, which was extremely clear. One advantage of the dark night is that dirty things will appear particularly clear. These evil spirits in the fog are different from what he has read in books, because the evil spirits he has found in the fog so far basically emit fluorescence, just like the anglers in the deep sea that use light to seduce their prey.

He raised his sword and lowered it. A spider with a strange green light in its abdomen had died under his sword.

"Sect Master, the ugly time has passed. It's time to let the Shouxiao Sect take over." A subordinate reminded him.

"Ah."

Lu Yang put away his sword, feeling helpless. There were very few people who could take the initiative to protect others, and most of them were forced to do so. I'm afraid they are all worried about the sudden attack of evil spirits, and at the same time they are keeping an eye on the clock, eager to change people immediately.

But even though he was about to be rotated, Lu Yang did not relax his vigilance. He scanned the surroundings alertly, and the sound of stepping on leaves was like a pebble falling into a pool, breaking the silence.

"who!"

Lu Yang shouted loudly, and several of his subordinates immediately unsheathed their swords.

There was no light visible where the sound came from, and Lu Yang was surprised: Could it be that it was not evil? But the patrol team sent out for search and rescue today had no casualties and had all returned. How could there be anyone outside at this point?
"Lu Yang, it's me, Wu Cheng."

Lu Yang and Wu Cheng were also familiar with each other, and this voice was very familiar to him. It was really Wu Cheng's voice. And as the distance got closer, there was the sound of slight footsteps... more than one person!
"Who else?"

"Wu Ping, and my master."

Lu Yang did not tell everyone to put away their swords. He drew a fire spell and immediately lit the torch in his hand.

The firelight was bright, and three people were seen emerging from the fog. They were actually the two brothers Qi Daodong and Wu Cheng Wuping who had been missing for four days.

Wu Cheng walked in front, limping, and the rags all over his body could not hide his calm and collected expression.

Wu Ping walked side by side with his brother, looking panicked and trembling all over, as if he had not yet escaped from the fear of danger.

Qi Daodong followed behind the two of them, with his disheveled white hair covering less than half of his face, and his torn Taoist robes covered in blood. He had obviously experienced many fierce battles along the way.

Everyone was overjoyed to see these three people. After all, Qi Daodong is the top combat force in the city. His return after a long absence is like a shot in the arm and will definitely make everyone feel at ease.

"It's really Sect Leader Qi!" The guard at the door was a little excited.

Qi Daodong remained silent, as if he didn't hear him at all.

Seeing Lu Yang still holding the sword, Wu Cheng said weakly:
"Master has killed countless evil spirits along the way. He is exhausted. Please ask Sect Master Lu to let him go. I am anxious to take Master to heal his injuries."

The guard disciples did not dare to disobey, so they put away their swords and prepared to get out of the way. Wu Cheng pursed his lips, then turned back and helped Qi Daodong's arm, leading Qi Daodong forward.

"Wait!"

Lu Yang's voice was like a bell, stopping the three of them in their tracks. Wu Cheng frowned and asked in a cold voice:
"What does this mean, Sect Leader Lu?"

Lu Yang was unmoved. He did not answer immediately, but walked up to Wu Cheng and blocked the way. His eyes were sharp, and he kept looking at Sect Leader Qi who was standing behind the two brothers, and he felt something strange that was indescribable.

When Wu Ping saw him approaching, his whole body shivered even more violently, and he kept stealing glances at Lu Yang, who was looking upright, with his narrow eyes. As if he couldn't bear it anymore, he screamed out and rushed directly into the crowd, shouting heartbreakingly:

"Save me! This old man is evil!"
