Invincible Sword Soul

Chapter 407 Small Town Crisis
Lynch was not the only one who was puzzled, and the six of them frowned, as if they smelled a dangerous smell.

"The atmosphere here is wrong!"

It was Bai Wuyi who was speaking, and after scanning around with his spiritual sense, he found that there were not many people in the town, most of them had left, and the rest were old, weak, sick and disabled.

"Let's go separately and ask if something happened!"

Su Wei suggested that everyone separate and find someone to ask to see what happened.

One person chooses a direction, finds those houses that are inhabited, and knocks on the door. Some people inside are unwilling to open, so they can only knock on the next house.

Lynch knocked three times in a row, and finally someone opened the door. It was an old woman with crutches, very old, and her legs were inconvenient.

"Young man, who are you looking for?"

The old woman glanced at Lynch, her voice hoarse.

"Grandma, I want to ask, why is the town deserted and where are the people?"

Lynch only focused on the key points, and it was superfluous to ask other questions. He wanted to find out what happened.

"Everyone ran away!"

A look of pain flashed across the old woman's face. A few days ago, their family was happy and harmonious, but now she is the only one left, lingering on her last breath.

Those who live in the small town are ordinary people, and their realm is not very high. If they can reach King Wu, they basically leave the town.

"Why did you run away?"

Lynch continued to ask, always feeling that there was something unusual in it.

"Because there are man-eating monsters here, they come out to eat people at night, and they like to eat young and strong boys. After a few days, the town's population has decreased by half, and the rest have run away!"

The old woman's face suddenly became extremely painful, and her son was also eaten by the monster, leaving no bones left.

"Grandma, can you describe it in detail? What does this monster look like?"

Lynch has seen many monsters that eat people, and this is the first time Lynch has encountered them when he came to the human world to eat people, and he always feels that this is unusual.

"I don't know about this either. In the evening, there will be a thick red fog around us, and we can't see clearly. As long as we are submerged in the red fog, people will disappear!"

The old woman had lingering fears when she recalled that her son was swept away by the red mist just like that.

"In other words, you haven't seen what the monster looks like!"

Lynch can basically conclude that they have never seen what the so-called monster is, and just regard it as a man-eating monster.

"Aside from monsters eating people, who else can eat people, young man, I think you are still young, so hurry up and leave before it gets dark."

After finishing speaking, the old woman closed the door, ignoring Lynch.

Lynch curled his lips. It is true that monsters cannibalize people, but there is another kind of thing that cannibalize people, even without spitting out bones, and that is people.

The six of them quickly joined together and sorted out the information they had inquired. The result was the same. A group of red mist appeared to arrest the young and strong man.

"What do you think!"

Su Wei asked several people, this place is full of mysteries, if it is really a monster, why can't I feel the breath of a monster here.

Bai Wuyi and the others shook their heads, they had no clue.

"I think it's man-made!"

Lynch said suddenly, it was definitely not the work of monsters.

"Oh, tell me about it!"

Su Wei's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked Lynch.

Bai Wuyi and the others also showed curiosity, casting their gazes over one after another.

"If it was done by a monster, why is there no footprint left by a monster here? If it is a flying monster, there must be signs left on the roof of these houses. I checked just now, and there is no trace left by a flying monster."

Lynch made an analysis, and the possibility of monsters can be ignored.

Several people stared wide-eyed, why didn't they expect that they couldn't help showing admiration for Lynch.

"If it wasn't a monster, it must have been done by humans. We checked many places, but there was no trace left by other people, so I suspect that someone must have used some means to arrest people in the town."

Lynch's two paragraphs made the five of them suddenly understand. They also suspected human beings, but they suffered from no evidence.

"What Lynch said is very possible. Some cults, using various means, like to capture living people for cultivation. Last year, I met a person who likes to capture women as furnaces to absorb their body essence."

Su Wei nodded and agreed with Lynch.

"Then what should we do? The Seven Stars Temple is a famous sect. When encountering such a thing, of course we can't stand idly by."

In Xu Qing's eyes, there was a trace of jealousy and hatred. He hated cults most and used living people to cultivate.

"Since we have met, of course we can't just stand by!"

It was Su Wei who spoke. This is the territory of the Seven Stars Temple, and evil spirits have appeared. As a disciple of the Temple, it is reasonable to dig them out.

"But the enemy is in the dark, and we don't know the strength of the opponent. Is it dangerous to make a rash move? Should we inform the sect?"

Luo Feng is also in favor of destroying the cult, but the strength of the six of them is limited, once they encounter a master, it will be difficult to escape.

Everyone fell into silence, even Su Wei didn't speak, Luo Feng's words were rough and reasonable, if the other party was a master, the six of them would not be strong enough to hold their teeth.

"If it was done by humans, the opponent's strength is not very high, even lower than ours!"

Seeing that everyone was silent, Lynch said at this time.

“How come you see?”

Leng Yu cast her eyes on Lynch.

"If the opponent is really a strong person, he will not go to such a remote place to plunder those weak people. He will definitely find a densely populated place to attack."

"Secondly, the opponent's strength is really strong, and they will not use such sneaky methods without revealing their real body. They are afraid of encountering a master, so they hide their real body and use magic to rob people."

After Lynch's explanation, the five people suddenly realized that they had experienced too little. After Lynch's analysis, everyone relaxed from their nervousness.

"Lynch, what's your idea?"

Before they knew it, the five of them were all headed by Lynch. Although Su Wei had the highest level, he was still inferior to Lynch in some details.

"It's very simple, the three of us pretend to be young and strong men, waiting for each other to take the bait!"

There is no need to do anything, since the other party can't come in his real body, then go find him. The only way is to pretend to be a man in the town and be swept away by the red mist, so that he can find the monster's real body.

"It's a good idea, but it's a little dangerous. Who knows if the red mist has any toxic side effects? Before we wake up, it will become a dish in someone's stomach."

Bai Wuyi thinks that Lynch's method is very good, but there are still some dangerous elements.

"I hate that the child can't be caught by the wolf. Do you have any better ideas than this?"

Lynch spread his hands and asked the five people, but they all fell silent. It was obvious that they had nothing to do.

"Since there is no good solution at present, we can only do as Lynch said, let's quickly assign tasks!"

Su Wei was more decisive and acted immediately. Since Lynch said it, he must have a way to protect himself, otherwise he would not let everyone take risks.

Everyone else is mobilized, it's also an exercise opportunity, and everyone wants to participate.

"Lynch, you have come up with the solution, you arrange it, and the few of us will fully cooperate!"

After Su Wei finished speaking, he handed over the initiative to Lynch and let him take command.

"It's very simple. The three of us are distributed around the town. When it gets dark, no matter who is captured, the others should not move. We will follow quietly. As for the three of you, stay here first to avoid other emergencies." .”

Lynch quickly made a plan, and Su Wei and others were secretly surprised. In terms of age, Lynch was the youngest, and in terms of sophistication, they were far from Lynch. Lynch explained almost every detail in detail.

"Okay, let's do as Lynch said, the three of us will be the bait, and the three of you will find a place to hide!"

Su Wei agreed with Lynch's opinion that Leng Yu and the three were women and could not be used as bait. Lynch and the three soon separated, and they all left communication symbols between them, and they would notify each other immediately if something happened.

The sky gradually darkened, and no one in the town could be seen, not even a light, and fell into a deathly silence.

Lynch sat in an empty house, and the people left, leaving only an empty house.

When there was still a ray of setting sun left in the sky, a wisp of red mist drifted over from the distant mountains and forests. Lynch and the others happened to see this scene through the window.

Everyone was a little nervous at the beginning, but gradually became excited.

There are more and more red mist, emitting bursts of fragrance, even very pleasant smell.

The red mist filled the entire town in the blink of an eye, and seemed to have the ability to visit. When encountering those who are not very energetic, they just give up.

The red mist suddenly penetrated into Lynch's room and stopped suddenly. The red mist condensed a little bit and hovered around Lynch.

Because Lynch blocked the realm, outsiders looked like an ordinary person, letting the red mist hold him up, leaving the room little by little, appearing in the void, and drifting away into the distance.

Su Wei and Bai Wuyi were the same, their bodies couldn't be controlled by themselves, and the red mist had a kind of paralyzing effect, so they couldn't move their whole bodies.

"Sure enough, there are some doorways!"

Lynch was a little surprised. It seemed that the opponent was not easy this time. He immediately performed the Shura Jue, and the feeling of numbness disappeared.

Su Wei and Bai Wuyi were not so lucky, they mobilized their spiritual energy as much as possible, trying to resolve the sequelae of paralysis.

If you can't move, you can only be captured alive, and you are very anxious.

The body flew higher and higher, and gradually flew out of the town. The red mist came and went quickly, and the three of Leng Yu walked out from the darkness, with solemn expressions on their faces.

"Senior Sister Leng, what should we do, the three of them have been taken away!"

Xu Qing was a little anxious, but the three of them stayed in the small town as if nothing had happened.

"Let's wait and see what happens, if there is a situation, they will definitely notify us!"

Leng Yu didn't have a good solution for the time being, the red mist dissipated quickly, and the mountains were so big, they didn't know where they came from, and it was too late to chase them.

Lynch pretended to be unable to move. Through the red mist, he saw a steep cliff, and his body fell along the cliff to a platform.

Around the platform, there appeared to be signs of human activity, proving that Lynch was right.
