The Wonderful Way

Chapter 10
After Chu Miao and Mu Xiaodie arrived in Linyang City, they found that the capital of Fen Kingdom seemed to be too cold, the shops on the road were closed in the blue sky, and there were no vendors.

People walking on the road were either in a hurry or looked around, as if something terrible was chasing them.

Seeing this, Chu Miao and Mu Xiaodie felt very strange, and finally knocked on the door of an inn. The shopkeeper saw a beautiful girl of fifteen to ten years old, and even closed the door without saying a word.

The two wandered around the city for a long time, and only came forward to inquire when they saw the sergeant patrolling the city. The leader saw the two girls walking alone, and shouted somewhat sternly:

"You two don't go back quickly, why are you wandering around in the city! The monsters have been catching people everywhere these days, you are not afraid of being caught, so hurry up!"

After hearing this, Chu Miao thought that there might be some kind of monster in Linyang, and seeing the sergeant, she didn't want to say more, so she had to drag Mu Xiaodie to go forward.

The two pretended to be pitiful and knocked on several inns, only to be welcomed in by a kind shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper closed the door firmly as soon as he entered, and said to the two: "Where did you two girls come from? Why haven't you heard that something evil has happened in Linyang City? Almost no one has entered the city these days!"

Mu Xiaodie hurriedly asked the shopkeeper what happened, the shopkeeper boiled a pot of hot water for the two of them to make a pot of tea, and then slowly said to the two of them.

"Just a few months ago, many families in Linyang had their sons missing, most of them were around ten years old, and the government couldn't find out why.

Everyone still wondered where the kidnapper came from and took the man away. Later, boys disappeared every day, but there was no clue of the kidnapper.

Unexpectedly, at the end of last month, someone discovered a large cave on Mingqing Mountain outside the city. What do you think is inside?
It's full of missing boys!Ouch, that was miserable, I heard that everyone was sucked up by something and fucked up!Once the news got out, who would dare to come to Laiyang?
I don't know why you two girls are so courageous, we don't even dare to go out now, how can anyone dare to hang out like you.

I heard that the emperor invited the national teacher to invite the immortals over the mountain, but half a month later, the immortals have not come yet, and there are still a few boys missing from time to time.

Hey, the two girls haven't eaten yet. I'll cook some simple food first. You're just going to make do with it, and the cook has run away. Oh, it's really sad. "

After speaking, he went to the kitchen behind to light a fire and cook, leaving the two of them sitting quietly in the lobby.

After seeing the shopkeeper leave, Mu Xiaodie put away her usual cheerful smile and seemed a little worried.

After hesitating for a while, he said to Chu Miao: "Fellow Daoist Chu, I have to go to Naming Qingshan to take a look. My younger brother happens to be ten years old, I'm afraid he will also..."

Chu Miao also felt that Mu Xiaodie's younger brother was more likely to be ill than good, but she didn't want Mu Xiaodie to go out looking for him without knowing anything.

"Now I don't know what is causing the trouble, if you encounter evil cultivators or high-level monsters, won't you be sent to your door if you go?

Didn't the shopkeeper say that someone went to UFO City to invite monks?Why don't we look for your younger brother in the city now, if he is still there, we can talk about it, if not, we can think of a way carefully. "

Mu Xiaodie also knew that with their two cultivation bases, no matter whether they were evil cultivators or monsters, most of them would have to die, so they nodded.

……

When the moon was in the middle of the sky, the two of them left the inn in hiding, and went to find the residence of the family surnamed Zhao that Mu Xiaodie had inquired about in Que Town.

The Zhao family was in the north of Linyang City, and the two happened to be nearby, so they soon found the Zhao family in an alley.

Seeing only a dimly lit fire in the room, the two of them entered the room with their light skills, searched for a few rooms but did not find Mu Xiaodie's younger brother, but heard faint sobbing in the lighted room.

Mu Xiaodie's heart skipped a beat, she glanced at Chu Miao, then walked lightly towards that room.

"His father, you say... you say our child is wooing." The two quietly listened to the movement in the room outside the door, and heard the female voice crying, Mu Xiaodie knew that his brother probably disappeared.

Mu Xiaodie didn't want to listen anymore, her eyes were slightly red, Chu Miao took her hand, and the two returned to the inn along the way they came.

Chu Miao saw that she had been sitting in the room since she came back, and she didn't know how to comfort her. The pain of losing a loved one was useless no matter how others tried to persuade her.

After a while, Chu Miao suddenly heard a commotion outside, got up and looked out the window, a black-clothed cultivator on the eighth floor of Qi training was sneaking into a house.

Seeing Chu Miao get up, Mu Xiaodie followed to check. The two looked at each other and nodded, and decided to go and have a look.

The two breathed the breath to the extreme, and using the lightness technique, they came to the house, and found that the monk was standing still beside a lotus pond.

Just when he felt a little strange, another monk from the sixth level of Qi training appeared from the side of the lotus pond, and said to the monk who went first: "How about it, are there enough people?"

The eighth-level Qi training monk who went first seemed a little dissatisfied, "What is enough, there are only a few people, didn't you go to other places to find people? Why didn't you bring back any of them."

The monk at the sixth level of Qi training said: "There are no suitable ones around here, so let's just make up for it first. Now I have been away for more than half a month, and it is unreasonable not to return to the palace."

"Hmph, it's just an ordinary emperor, what has to be done, I will go to the mountain to answer the master tomorrow, you can figure it out yourself.

Don't think that if the master is injured, you can't do anything about it. If you haven't gathered 99 people before the end of the month, be careful that the blood curse on your body will kill you. "

After finishing speaking, the monks on the eighth level of Qi training ignored him and walked towards the way they came.

Chu Miao and the two were so frightened that they quickly used the concealment and lightness techniques to the extreme, and they were relieved when the two monks walked a long way before returning to the inn.

Mu Xiaodie took a sip of herbal tea, and said to Chu Miao angrily, "The one who practiced Qi at the sixth level must be the master of the country that the shopkeeper said! He turned out to be with the evil cultivators. No wonder the monks from UFO City haven't been arrested for half a month. Please come!"

Chu Miao nodded, and said, "I heard that the monk at the eighth level of Qi training said that they still have a master, and I think it should be at least a monk at the foundation establishment stage.

It is useless for us to stay here, it is better to go to UFO City to find someone to help. "

Mu Xiaodie also knew that her younger brother was more likely to die than good, so she could only go to UFO City as Chu Miao said, maybe she could win a chance for other children's children.

The two decided to take advantage of the darkness of night, and the two evil cultivators had already met and would not come out again, and they happened to be on their way to UFO City.

To go to UFO City, you have to go through Mingqing Mountain no matter what. The evil cultivator obviously won't leave before gathering enough people. It's the same if you go early or late. You can only secretly pray that that person will not show up at this time.

……

A round of dark moon hung in the ink-like night sky, illuminating the majestic Mingqing Mountain in the daytime like a huge monster, waiting for food to approach with its mouth wide open.

Mu Xiaodie had never been to Linyang City and UFO City, but she just heard people talk about the approximate route, and followed Chu Miao's memory all the way to the mountains.

Chu Miao and Mu Xiaodie moved lightly, even though they knew that if the evil cultivator was here, no matter how soft the voice was, they would still be discovered by their spiritual consciousness, but they couldn't help but slow down their movements and try not to make a sound.

After walking for a few sticks of incense, the two of them didn't encounter any weirdness, but they still didn't dare to relax in the slightest. They walked to a stream and rested for a while, preparing to move on.

As she was walking, Chu Miao suddenly felt that something was wrong, she hurriedly grabbed Mu Xiaodie who was leading the way, and said, "Didn't you find that the surrounding area is too quiet? We couldn't hear us as soon as we left the stream."

Mu Xiaodie's heart tightened, and she quickly asked: "But what kind of formation did you enter? Or that..." Chu Miao grabbed Mu Xiaodie and squeezed it lightly, for fear that she would say the word "evil cultivator".

If you pretend you don't know anything, you may still have a chance, but if you let the other party know that you have discovered the evil cultivator, it will be a dead end anyway.

"I don't know what kind of formation this is. I don't know why the senior trapped the two of us here. Please forgive me if I disturb the senior Qingxiu. The junior will leave immediately."

Mu Xiaodie understood what Chu Miao said, and after seeing Chu Miao finished speaking to the surrounding space, the formation suddenly shook, and the two returned to the creek before.

It turns out that the two have been circling around the creek since they took a break and never left the creek.

A male cultivator dressed in white and with charming eyes walked out from the nearby tree. The corner of the male cultivator's mouth was slightly raised as if he was smiling at the two of them, but at the same time they felt chills from head to toe.

Mu Xiaodie found that this person could not see the specific cultivation level at all, and Chu Miao slightly felt the deep aura on this person.

It turned out that his cultivation was higher than his previous life, and he felt cold, this time he bumped into the hands of the monk who formed the alchemy.
