Chapter Seventy-Eight: Inquiring

Chengzhou, the city is depressed.

It has been more than a month since the evil spirit incident, and even though the disciples of Huayang Sect have set up protection for the people of Chengzhou, the ghost cries every night still disturb people's hearts.

When their lives were still alive, even if there was peace during the day, the people of Chengzhou were still panicking. After a long time, I naturally lost the idea of doing things.

Only a few inns were open on the entire street, and in the vicinity of these inns there was an occasional vegetable or two vendor or two. In addition, the whole of Chengdu was closed, and the occasional cry of a child came from the houses facing the street, which was immediately stopped by the parents.

Shen Yi flew into Chengzhou unimpeded with a flying sword, but he never thought it would be such a deserted scene.

The effect of the immortal presence in the city is gone.

Fortunately, Shen Yi is not obsessed with setting up people, this high-profile, in addition to wanting the people to have a reassurance, the main thing is to let people know that the sect is here again.

However, Shen Yi firmly remembered Jiuze's advice: keep flying until the people see him.

Thereupon. Shen Yi flew slowly and slowly in the city with a flying sword.

flew for a while, because there was no one on the street, Shen Yi was also at ease. Just thinking about it, a shout of surprise with excitement almost burst Shen Yi's eardrums: "Immortal Chief!

Shen Yi hurriedly froze, stood firm on the flying sword, put on a momentum, and silently raised a little, so that the people could see his face clearly but could not touch the position of the flying sword.

I saw that the person in front of me was a vegetable vendor, dressed in coarse cloth, and although it was clean, it was obviously not pulped, not to mention wrinkled, and there were many holes, just like this city.

"Immortal Chief!" The vegetable vendor was originally squatting in front of the vegetable stall, but when he saw Shen Yi at this time, he immediately stood up, walked a few steps to Shen Yi's approach, and knelt down with a "poof", raised his head, and was already in tears.

"Immortal Chief, please save us, save us!"

At this time, the originally closed doors and windows were opened one after another, and there were also people in the inn on the side who came out one after another, and saw that someone really came "volley", and immediately surprised and delighted, and pushed the door out one after another, bowed to the ground, and cried for help along the words of the vegetable vendor: "Save us, Immortal, save us!"

"Immortal, save us, save us!"

Almost everyone shouted the same word.

Help us.

Thousands of the same words, one after another, converge into one emotion, sadness and hope.

Shen Yi looked into the distance, but after a moment's effort, several streets were full of people kneeling. They may not be able to see Shen Yi, but they all bow down in his direction.

In this situation, he couldn't help but be moved.

From this moment on, the Chengzhou evil spirit incident was no longer a task for Shen Yi, and he understood that he, they, had become the hope of the people of Chengzhou City.

Shen Yi stepped down from the flying sword, stood in the creeping crowd, and used his spiritual power to send his voice out: "Everyone, please get up, I came this time to solve the evil spirit incident, you can rest assured, I will not disappoint everyone." ”

There were cheers among the people, and when many of them raised their heads, they were already weeping with joy.

"Rise first. Seeing that the crowd didn't move, Shen Yiyi.

Seeing that the crowd was still not moving, Shen Yi sighed in his heart, remounted the flying sword, and flew towards the City Lord's Mansion, which had been closing the gate.

In the backlight, Shen Yiyi's white clothes were dyed with a dim yellow halo, and when he looked from behind, he felt that this handsome young man with a promoted posture, dressed in white, stepped on a flying sword, and moved forward towards the sun.

When Jiuze and Khotan Yun came over, they saw this picture.

Khotan Yun looked at Shen Yi's back and narrowed his eyes.

Seeing this, Jiu Ze whispered: "Don't think about it, it's too superficial to only pay attention to appearance." ”

Khotan Yun snorted coldly.

Nonsense, he pays attention to the figure!

The people around them didn't stand up excitedly until they couldn't hear the sound of the flying sword breaking through the air.

At this time, I found Jiuze and Khotan Yun dressed in gorgeous clothes. Look behind the two of them, not far away in the direction of the city gate.

As early as a few days after the accident, everyone checked out the people in the Chengzhou City Inn.

Since the accident, no one has been willing to set foot in Chengzhou, and Jiuze and Khotan Yun have obviously just arrived.

It seems that he didn't expect that someone would come to Chengzhou at this time, and many people stared at Jiuze and Khotan.

However, perhaps because of Shen Yi's arrival, the mood of the people here was much more relaxed, and these people just watched and dispersed, with obvious joy on their faces.

Jiu Ze and Khotan Yun also entered the inn on the side like no one.

Before coming, Khotan Yun used his spiritual power to temporarily seal several blood orifices, and now he looks pale, looking like he has just recovered from a serious illness.

The shopkeeper was very polite: "Do you two play the tip or live in the hotel?"

"Stay in the hotel," Jiu Ze helped the "weak" Khotan Yun to sit down at a table, and said, "Give us two side dishes first." ”

"Well, wait a minute!"

Khotan Yun hurriedly said in a weak voice: "Wait a minute!"

Shopkeeper Xiaoer and Jiu Ze looked at Khotan Yun at the same time, and saw Khotan Yun pull out a pale smile and pointed at Jiu Ze: "Serve her some side dishes and rice, and bring me a bowl of green onion noodles to make it better." ”

The shopkeeper left in response.

Jiu Ze looked at Khotan Yun suspiciously, and whispered, "Green onion noodles, are you sure? I won't give it to you for a while." ”

Khotan Yun glared at Jiu Ze, and squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "Light body!"

Jiuze raised his eyebrows: "Okay." ”

With that, he began to think back to this incident.

In this evil spirit incident, the fellow sect who left halfway had turned back to Chengzhou, and had gone to look for those who had disappeared, but he was severely injured, and he did not return to the sect until a few days ago, and now he is still recuperating in the sect.

Only then did the sect expose the task again.

If this is the same door because the tracking of the missing person was hit hard, then this same door is likely to have found important clues, but why didn't he mention it in the jade slip?

"Serious injuries, retreats, evil spirits, missing persons, missing persons, missing information......" Jiu Ze pondered in his heart, trying to string these together into a line.

"The dish is here......" The voice of the shopkeeper sounded in front of Jiuze. Jiu Ze raised his eyes and saw that Xiao Er put two dishes of meat and one vegetable in front of her: "Objective, you use it slowly." ”

Jiuze nodded, picked up the chopsticks, and as if he remembered something, he said to the shopkeeper: "Wait." ”

"What else do you want to be objective?" asked the shopkeeper with a bow.

"Don't be so polite," Jiuze said, "I want to ask you about something." ”

Shopkeeper: "You say." ”

Jiu Ze said: "I just saw that you are all kneeling down to worship a person who is stepping on a sword, that person is an immortal?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "That is the immortal chief, who is here to help us, don't call you an immortal, you should call the immortal." ”

Jiuze raised his eyebrows: "Why?"

The shopkeeper said: "This is what the immortal chief said before, let's not call it an immortal, he can't afford to say anything." You say, "What's there to bear?" Aren't those who can fly to the sky and the earth just immortals?"

Hearing this, Khotan Yun smiled and quickly swallowed the green onion noodles in his mouth.

Jiu Ze glanced at Khotan Yun, and then looked at the shopkeeper: "You just said that the immortal chief is here to help you, what are you helping?"

The shopkeeper looked outside, and the sky hadn't darkened yet, so he said, "It's okay to tell you, you can't leave anyway." ”

Jiu Ze immediately secretly guarded, his face remained silent, but he showed a slight surprise: "Why can't you go, we just passed by for a night." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at them sympathetically and said, "Girl, you don't know, we have been here for a month and a half, and we can't leave if we come." Come in, but you can't get out of the city gate at all. Except for the immortal chief last time, no one has ever stepped out of the bone. You too, when you come, you don't inquire about what you are doing in Chengzhou. ”

Jiu Ze smiled helplessly, looked at Khotan Yun and said, "My brother is injured and wants to find a good place to recuperate." ”

Saying this, Jiuze's eyes were a little red.

When the shopkeeper saw it, he couldn't bear it, but thinking about the situation in Chengzhou, he couldn't help but say, "In that case, why don't you go home?"

Khotan Yun smiled, "Hey, people in the rivers and lakes, go south and north, where do you come from?" ”

The pale smile and helpless eyes made the shopkeeper feel sad. Hurriedly reassured: "Actually, it's nothing, speaking of which, your luck is also quite good, isn't this another thought that the immortal is elder." ”

Khotan Yun asked weakly: "But the previous immortal chief didn't solve the problem, how can you still trust him this time?"

This time, the shopkeeper was silent, and after a while, he smiled, and his smile was full of bitterness: "Who else can you trust? City Lord? Since the accident, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion has not been opened." ”

When Jiu Ze heard this, he and Khotan Yun glanced at each other, according to Yu Jian's prompt, the city lord of Chengzhou should not be such an irresponsible person.

Khotan Yun sighed and continued to say weakly: "Since the immortal chief is here, it will definitely be fine, but I don't know, what happened in this Chengzhou?"

The shopkeeper also cleaned up his emotions, and there were no other customers in the store at this time, so he simply chatted with Jiuze and the two.

"A month and a half ago, on the twelfth of last month, that day was the most terrible day I can remember......"
