Chapter 38 Clues Emerge
Since the disappearance of the boy, the city and suburbs of Xiyang County were extremely quiet as soon as the sun went down.
Those who set up stalls no longer went out, and the shops were all closed, and the prosperity of the old capital was no longer seen.
The three of Chu Miao and Pei Jue put on black tights, each pasted a second-order hidden talisman, and quietly left the palace.
When they came to the house where Pei Jue found the trace of the evil cultivator, several people checked carefully beside the house where the boy lived.
This family used to do business at the foot of the imperial city. Ever since the child disappeared, they returned to their hometown in the countryside with a heart ashamed.
At this time, there were only Chu Miao and her party in the empty house, there was no breath or sound of footsteps, and the figure that was about to disappear in the darkness seemed very strange.
Several people found nothing in the house where the boy lived, and then searched around the empty house separately.
After a quarter of an hour, they gathered in the courtyard. They all shook their heads in disappointment, but they still didn't find any clues.
After leaving the empty house, Pei Jue planned to take a few people to another missing family to investigate, but Chu Miao took a few people around the house.
The house is located in the west of Xiyang County. The people living here are all people with low status in the world, and the houses are not neatly built.
Chu Miao found that there was only one alleyway that could go directly from the west of the city, and the alleyway was very remote, and there would be no soldiers patrolling or beating men.
So I decided to walk along this alley first to see where it could lead.
The four of them walked lightly and slowly for about a quarter of an hour before they walked out of the remote alleyway.
After walking for a while, they came to a remote city wall, and there was a hole under the city wall covered by a phantom formation, and the technique was quite clever.
Gu Nianning was overjoyed when he saw it, and said via voice transmission: "There is a formation covering up here, it must have been made by those two evil cultivators, should we go out and have a look?"
After hearing the sound transmission, several people all looked at Chu Miao, wanting her to make a decision.
Although Chu Miao was the youngest, she had the highest cultivation and strength among the group of people, and she was quite methodical in her daily activities. At this time, the group of people was vaguely headed by her.
Looking at the more sophisticated formation in front of her, Chu Miao decided to go and have a look first, so she sent a voice transmission to a few people, "Since we have found the clues, we must go and have a look.
Every time Xiexiu acts at night, now is just a chance!Pei Jue stays here, if we don't return for a long time, we will report to the sect immediately. "
Seeing that Chu Miao was going to leave her here, Pei Jue was a little anxious, "No, I have to follow. I am familiar with the surrounding areas of Xiyang County. If there is an emergency, I can take you to hide."
Gu Nianning also said: "Ah Miao, let's bring Junior Brother Pei, one more person is more guarantee, and it only takes a moment to send out the Zongmen's sound transmission talisman, and it is not the Yuanying monk who can't stop it at all."
Pei Jue quickly said, "That's right, those two evil cultivators are on the twelfth level of Qi training. Although I'm not good enough, I can help disrupt their position."
Seeing this, Chu Miao couldn't say anything more, she thought that Pei Jue was old and it didn't make much difference whether he went or not, so she had to take him with her.
"Well, just to be on the safe side, we don't go out of this cave. Let's go to the west gate to leave the city, and then go back to the cave entrance to investigate." After speaking, he walked towards the west gate.
The gates of the city were already closed when the sun went down. Ordinary people don't know what evil cultivators are. They only know that the city is not safe these days, so they closed the gates early.
For monks, it doesn't matter whether it is closed or not, and a few people quickly opened the door and got out through a gap.
When they arrived at the exit of the cave outside the city, they found that there was an early warning formation here, and the formation method was the same as that in the city.
Mu Xiaodie circled around the warning formation and said, "It's a good thing they didn't come out of there just now, these people are really vigilant."
Both Chu Miao and Pei Jue had done some research on formations, and after reading it, they felt that this person's formation technique was indeed very clever.
This person combined the killing array and the early warning array of the first-order nine palaces formation into one. Although he couldn't kill the monks in the late stage of Qi training, his sudden entry into the formation was enough to hurt him.
Outside the entrance of the cave was an almost deserted road, the roadside was overgrown with weeds, and there was nothing but grass around it.
Pei Jue cautiously protruded his consciousness and scanned the surrounding area before he could discern the location of this place.
"This place seems to lead directly to Luqing Mountain on the outskirts of the city. The scenery of Luqing Mountain is not very good, and there are no temples or Taoist temples. Few people set foot in it on weekdays."
After hearing this, several people were overjoyed. The wild countryside and abandoned roads were just right for the hiding place of evil cultivators.
Chu Miao walked in the front, Gu Nianning Hall was behind, and several people carefully followed the road covered by weeds, heading towards the Luqing Mountain ahead.
The Luqing Mountain at night was even more desolate than in the daytime. When the four of them reached the foot of the mountain, they lost the trace of evil cultivators.
Although Luqing Mountain is not as vast as the high mountains, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack if you want to find a hidden cave in the mountain for a monk in the Qi training period.
The four divided into two pairs, and searched around the foot of the mountain, but still didn't have any clues, so they had to gather again to discuss.
Gu Nianning proposed to go up the mountain directly, and then divide into two teams to search after going up the mountain.
However, Chu Miao felt that it was too dangerous to act separately. Both Mu Xiaodie and Pei Jue were only at the ninth level of Qi training, and if they encountered evil cultivators, they would almost die.
After a stalemate at the foot of the mountain, the four decided to go up the mountain together. Although the goal was bigger, it was better than dividing into two teams and worrying about each other.
After going up the mountain, I felt that there were only a few living creatures in the whole mountain, and there was no sound of wind, and the surrounding was completely silent.
A few people only focused on whether there were footprints around them, or the unique death energy of evil cultivators, and were not affected by the silence of the outside world.
Soon following a path, they found a remote cave.
Several people looked at each other, not daring to spread out their senses to investigate at will, Chu Miao asked the other three to wait in place, and she sneaked into the cave with her breath concealed.
There was no trace of formation outside the cave, Chu Miao easily entered the cave against the mountain wall, while the other three held their breath on the spot, their hearts beating non-stop.
As Chu Miao pressed against the cold mountain wall, the more she walked in, the more she felt a faint but not strong death energy, and Chu Miao became more cautious in her movements.
There was no light or sound in the passage, so Chu Miao slowed down her breathing, for fear of making any noise, and walked forward sideways, clinging to the winding mountain wall.
After turning two or three corners, Chu Miao's vision brightened slightly, and she saw a small open space in front of her.
The cave does not seem to be man-made, and the ground and mountain walls inside are not regular and flat.
Chu Miao took a closer look at the glowing thing, only to find that it turned out to be a few shapeless lighting stones scattered on the ground.
Through the light of the lighting stone, Chu Miao could clearly see the six lifeless corpses on the ground, all of them were eight or nine-year-old boys, who were randomly thrown on the ground.
Every boy's body was black and blue, his whole body was dry and devoid of blood, and he fell there limply, his whole face distorted by fear and pain, which was very frightening.
Seeing that the death energy in the cave had almost dissipated, Chu Miao knew that these children must have died for many days.
Seeing the miserable conditions of these children, I feel even more disgusted and hated for the evil cultivators who did such evil things.
Seeing that there were no traces of evil cultivators, Chu Miaoyun stood up and came out of the cave, and in the blink of an eye, she came to several people, and said to the three of them:
"The cave is not big. There are a few shriveled corpses of boys. The dead breath has dissipated. It should be the cave that Xiexiu used before, but it has been abandoned."
After hearing this, several people went into the cave one by one to check it out. When they got out of the cave, they all had faces full of anger and sat silently outside the cave for a long time.
