What the disciple said next surprised Qiuqiu even more.

"The disciple had scruples in his heart, and he didn't dare to stay in the town for a long time. Later, he bypassed the town and went out of the town, only to find that the original cemetery outside the town was empty."

That disciple was obviously more afraid of this matter than what he had seen and heard just now.

"All empty?"

"Yes, not only the new graves that have been buried for a few months, but also the old graves that have been around for a long time have been dug up. The coffins are scattered all over the ground, and not a single bone is missing."

Did something like this happen in the town where the incident happened?

After all, Qiuqiu didn't see it with her own eyes. It was not easy for Aunt Lu to check in the town tremblingly. It would be difficult for her to go to the graveyard outside the town to check.

The head of Wulou Mountain asked the disciple's place name and location, and immediately sent someone to check again, and told them to send a message back immediately after they found out, and they must be careful and careful, always be vigilant, and if they are in danger, don't show force. The most important thing is to save your life and escape.

In the evening, another message came.

Among the people who came to Heshan Town to attend the meeting this time, some people did not show up.

Originally they set out together, but they were separated temporarily due to something on the way, and now it has been more than ten days, and no one has arrived yet.Then send someone back to look for it, but the result is like the world has evaporated, not even a trace can be found.

For a while, people in the town were even more panicked.

The sun was about to set, the sky in the west was all red, and the faint night fog began to diffuse quietly.Looking down from the mountainside, the small town of Heshan seems to be submerged in the thick twilight around it.

Before everyone knew it, the sun had already set.And the night is approaching.

Qiuqiu turned her head and asked Shi'er: "Among us, are there any descendants left by monsters?"

Shi'er said softly, "Yes."

The sun had completely sunk below the underground line, the entire sky darkened in an instant, and the mountain wind became cold all of a sudden.

Huoer was by Qiuqiu's side. When Qiuqiu read a book, it coiled on Qiuqiu's arm. When Qiuqiu wanted to pour water, it climbed onto the lid of the kettle. Qiuqiu didn't pay attention for a while.Almost poured it into the glass too.

"Go, don't bother me here." Qiuqiu turned a page in her hand.Huo'er's tail twirled over, holding down the pages of the book for her like a paperweight.After Qiuqiu finished reading this page, she had to turn the page, and she had to pull its tail to turn it.

Although it's a bit annoying, but it's so naughty from time to time, it really makes people feel less heavy.

In the next room are Yunmei and Yunshu staying there.The two of them live next to Qiuqiu, so they always listen to the call and do errands for Qiuqiu.This is the arrangement of their master, Elder Li.Yun Mei was very puzzled at first, why did Master treat Qiu Zhangfeng so well?

"It's not easy for Qiuzhangfeng to be alone." Elder Li said earnestly: "Think about it, if one day, Master and I disappear from this world together with Feng Jiu, what will you two feel in your heart? Oh, yes, you two The two still have each other as companions. Qiuzhang Peak doesn't even have a senior sister left."

Hearing what the master said, the two put themselves in Qiuqiu's place and thought about it, they really felt shuddering, just thinking about it made people feel that the surroundings were pitch black, and there was not even a ray of light so hopeless.

In this way, they will not be so repulsive about going to accompany and get close to Qiuqiu.

Elder Li nodded and said: "Besides, Master also has his own selfishness. You two have followed me since you were young. But Master, my talent is limited, and you two followed me. There is no great prospect. Qiuzhang Peak is different. , She is talented and talented. She has already become the leader of the peak at a young age, and her future achievements will be limitless. You two can learn a little bit by following her, and it will be good for you to be lucky."

"What about you, master? If we are far away, don't you miss us, master?"

Elder Li smiled: "Go, go, hurry up and become a teacher, I will save a few years of anger and worry a few years."

In this way, they became Qiu Zhangfeng's little followers.

Speaking of which, there are quite a few seniors who want to be Qiu Zhangfeng's followers.The other palm peaks have their own people under their hands, but the seventh peak is an exception.Only Zhangfeng himself can find the seventh peak, so the peak master will become a polished commander.As soon as the two of them moved here, the senior sister said sourly that they got the moon first when they were close to the water, and got the blue eyes of Qiuzhang Peak. Maybe the peak owner would look at them differently.

Yun's eyebrows were so angry that she just wanted to talk back, but Yun Shu held her back.

"We took advantage of it, why don't you feel sour for others? They are all from the same family, and it doesn't look good to make noise."

This is not Jiufeng, it's not their own territory, it's in someone else's place, let alone make people laugh.

Besides, what time is it now?It's inappropriate to bicker over a little thing in such an eventful time.

But after thinking about it, everyone is still thinking about such a small matter at this time, which shows that the situation is not so bad that it cannot be dealt with.

What she said was reasonable, and Yunmei was used to listening to her all the time.

Now she poked her head to look outside, then retracted her head and said softly: "Qiu Zhangfeng hasn't rested yet, the window is still lit."

"At this moment, who can rest in peace." Yun Shu bit off the end of the thread and shook the clothes in her hand: "Try it."

Yunmei took off the coat, put on the shirt that Yun Shu handed her, and pulled the front: "The length is just right, and the color is also good."

No one stipulates what kind of clothes they can't wear, but no one cares too much about it.Plain and simple are the things that are easy to move about. Look at those women from rich and noble families at the foot of the mountain. They are so heavy and cumbersome. How can they practice swords?

Yun Mei took off her new shirt and put it aside, and sat down next to Yun Shu: "Senior sister, tell me... are the things you heard today true?"

"What?" Yunmei turned to look at her.

"Some people say that Xiuyuan Mountain has been coveted by monsters. They must have some treasures. Now the entire mountain and the entire sect are gone, only Qiuzhangfeng is left. She is so outstanding, there must be something Baby, or do you have any secret recipes?"

"How can you believe such nonsense?"

"Yeah, I also think those people are boring."

"Who are they?"

"I don't recognize them, but there are people from Wulou Mountain."

Yun Shu shook her head: "If you hear such words again, not only don't believe it, you'd better go away quickly and stay away from those people. If you don't have the ability to see others well, it's okay if you just think about it in your heart. To do something, that is life and death."

"I didn't believe it either." Yun Mei was a little embarrassed: "It's just... I wanted to defend Qiu Zhangfeng at the time, but there were so many of them and they weren't familiar with them, so I didn't go there."

"There is no need to argue about this kind of thing, will they believe it when you tell it?"

Yun Mei rested her head on Yun Shu's lap, closed her eyes and dozed off comfortably.

Yun Shu stopped and glanced at her, with a hint of melancholy on her face.

Compared with Yunmei, she thinks more and goes further.

Yun Mei was too naive, but Yun Shu knew that the peace in front of her would be broken at any time.

She straightened the thread and continued to work with her head down.

Qiuqiu spread out a piece of paper and wrote on it one by one what happened to her.

One thing after another.

In the beginning, the encounter between the senior sister and the master, the weirdness of the town at the foot of the mountain, the incident with Jinglan and Jingfei, the "Lost Soul" that also happened in Jiufeng, the change in the sealed place, the chaos in the capital...

These things are listed on paper, and seemingly unrelated things are connected by an invisible line.

What is the purpose of the monster?

The purpose of the old man Wan Gu is very clear, he has done so many unreasonable things in order to live forever.The death of the emperor, the dispute between the princes, and the rebellion of the generals in the border towns, all these things were written by him.

He can profit from these things.

Huo'er stepped into the inkstone with one paw, and then crawled across Qiuqiu's paper, leaving a row of small black paw prints.

"Look at you, crawling around." Qiuqiu hit Huo'er on the head with the pen.

Those tiny paw prints looked messy, but they had a clear direction.

One cannot do something for no reason.

The same should be true for monsters, right?

All their actions must have a purpose.

Monsters are not unintelligent creatures, on the contrary, they are surprisingly cunning and vicious.

What is their purpose?Kill all the people in this world and turn this world into another demon realm?

Desperately devouring people's flesh and blood to strengthen oneself, do you have a higher and greater goal?

Qiuqiu tossed the pen, Huo'er jumped up, and his mouth precisely grasped the penholder that Qiuqiu dropped.

No matter how preoccupied Qiuqiu was, it made him laugh: "You are a dragon, not a puppy."

Huo'er came up eagerly with the pen holder in her mouth, so Qiuqiu had no choice but to take the pen over again, and praised it by the way: "You are really sensible and capable."

Huo'er wagged his tail proudly.

Qiuqiu lowered her head speechlessly, how does raising a little dragon feel like raising a puppy.

Things about Beijing...

Although it has only been less than a year since the chaos in the capital emerged, old man Wan Gu has been making plans since very early on.He found Kong Xuan, the blood of the previous dynasty, and arranged for such an important pawn as the imperial concubine, and even the empress had such a person as Mr. Tang.It has been planned for decades, but the chaos has only emerged now.

Qiuqiu clenched her fingers slightly.

What they are seeing happening now may not just happen suddenly now.

All this has been brewing in the dark since ten or decades ago, or even earlier.

If so, none of these things are accidental now.

Just like the tip of an iceberg is only exposed, the deeper part is still hidden under the water.

Behind the monsters, is there a behind-the-scenes mastermind like the old man Wan Gu? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
