Chapter 35: The magic stone is missing and is inexplicably tied up

"And after that?" asked Li Shiran hurriedly.

"After that, it's like this, some time ago, the magic stone suddenly disappeared, in the eastern suburbs of the woods, I can't find the first Yan Bei left by Elder Xian Lai, the baby's crying voice, through the power of the first Yan Bei spread to the entire east, I also investigated, but unfortunately there was no result, as for the hundred ghosts night walk, I also suspect that it was the magic stone that attracted it, I originally wanted to ask Elder Xian Lai about it, but I was told that Elder Xian Lai ...... Because of the retreat and cultivation, I have gone mad and become demonic, and I have ......"

When Xue Ye said this, he stopped abruptly, his tone was mixed with a faint sadness, and everyone also heard the sound of the strings in his words, that Elder Xianlai, I am afraid that he will not be alive......

"So, you're the only one left who knows about this matter now, right?" Xiao Yuan seemed to sense the complexity of the matter, and asked cautiously looking at Xue Ye.

Xue also shook his head, "That's not it, when Li Shuyun disappeared for no reason, the head of Liuxin Valley once asked Elder Xianlai, presumably, she should also know about Li Shuyun." ”

"That means that the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk in Frost City was actually made by that magic stone?" Wang Yize sat extremely quietly on the side today, and it was not until he listened to Xue Ye's words that he spoke his thoughts.

"Yes, there is no doubt that the night walk of the hundred ghosts has something to do with the magic stone......! I really can't figure it out, I sent someone to investigate, but there was no result......" Xue Ye said this, and suddenly looked up at Xiao Yuan, "You said you found that child and Chu Yanbei, can you show me?"

Xiao Yuan nodded, turned his head to look at Lu Xianxian, and motioned for her to take out the things, Lu Xianxian walked slowly in front of Xue Ye, and cast a spell to transform the baby who was protected in the enchantment and Chu Yanbei and put them in front of Xue Ye together.

Xue Ye looked at the real unformed child in front of him, and his words of surprise were incoherent, and he kept sighing, it was incredible, it was incredible!

"What kind of person is this, who can have such a skill!" Xue Ye racked his brains and couldn't figure it out, Xiao Yuan walked up to him, glanced at the baby, and asked Xue Ye again: "City Lord, do you think this baby is real?"

Xue also heard Xiao Yuan's question, and raised his head suddenly, he knew the meaning of Xiao Yuan's words, he had patronized and lamented the strangeness of this matter before, and when he reminded him like this, he remembered that this baby may have been conjured by someone else's spell, thinking of this, he hurriedly approached and carefully observed the baby.

After a long time, he still didn't have a conclusion, raised his head and replied to Xiao Yuan seriously, "I still can't see it, maybe the spell of the person who casts the spell is too unfathomable, or maybe this baby is indeed really alive." ”

Xiao Yuan lowered his head a little discouraged when he heard this, but Xue Ye seemed to think of something for a moment, and immediately added: "That's right! It is also possible that it is a baby spirit of the Demon Realm." ”

"Infant Spirit?" Everyone got up one after another when they heard this, and Xue also continued: "Yes, the magic realm of the demon world is always different from our human world, so the spells cast will be more or less different, you can go to the Jiangsha Pavilion in Jiangling City to find Mrs. Youluo, there are many treasures in the Jiangsha Pavilion, there is always one thing, you will sense whether this child is a person from the Demon Realm." ”

Lu Xianxian's eyes lit up when she heard this, and her eyes suddenly became excited and expectant, "City Lord, what you are talking about is that Dongchen's Silk Yarn Pavilion is the one that gathers the world's treasures, the Silk Yarn Pavilion?"

Xue Ye nodded, "Yes, since you have found the initiator of the baby's crying in the woods in the eastern suburbs, then you can take this unformed baby to Dongchen to find Lady Youluo and ask for her help, oh yes! ”

"City Lord, that magic stone, haven't you found its whereabouts until now?" Wang Yize, who had been silent for a long time, asked again, and Xue also shook his head, "No, I sent a lot of people to look for it, but they didn't find its whereabouts, but I think that since those hundred ghosts will appear in Yishuang City, presumably the magic stone is still in Yishuang City, but it hasn't been found yet." ”

"Do the Liuxin Valley and Xuanzhen Pavilion know about the matter of Yishuang City?" Xiao Yuan asked his confusion, this question had been around his mind since yesterday, Xue Ye smiled slightly, his smile was both a little embarrassed and a little hidden, "I sent someone here, but I didn't want them to know about the magic stone and the child, so I didn't let them stay." ”

Xiao Yuan nodded, "I see!"

"So, as long as we can find that magic stone, we can unlock the secret of the Hundred Ghosts' Night Walk?" Li Xuan was surprised, and at the same time looked at Li Shiran in surprise, Li Shiran didn't know what he was thinking, he kept his eyes down, and looked preoccupied.

"Well, right now, I'm just looking for that magic stone, to be honest, I feel very uncomfortable watching the people of Frost City suffer so much. ”

At the same time that Xue Ye said this, Wang Yize glared at him angrily, knowing that the people were suffering, he actually didn't let the people of Xuanzhen Pavilion and Liuxin Valley help find the magic stone, just to hide Li Shuyun's matter, could he use this as an excuse to make the people of the whole city suffer!!

"In that case, let's stay tonight to help the city lord find the magic stone. Xiao Yuan said this sentence without the slightest hesitation, Xue Ye was slightly stunned, and then nodded, "If you are willing to help, then I, Xue, really want to thank you for the people of Yishuang City!"

Xiao Yuan responded with a smile: "The city lord is polite. Obviously, he didn't want to say more to Xue Ye, so after giving everyone a look, they all said goodbye to Xue Ye and left the City Lord's Mansion.

"It seems that he, the city lord, is not very good, Li Shuyun's love between people and demons was so big at the beginning, only the head of Liuxin Valley and Elder Xianlai and he knows! Moreover, if he feels sorry for the people of Yishuang City, it is too smooth to open his eyes and say nonsense, if he is really distressed! He should have solved this matter when Xuanzhen Pavilion and Liuxin Valley sent people! This way it won't get to this point!"

As soon as he left the City Lord's Mansion, Wang Yize began to be dissatisfied with Xue Ye, and when he heard Xue Ye say that sentence in the City Lord's Mansion earlier, he looked at him unpleasantly!

"Don't say that, after all, he is the lord of a city, and he naturally thinks about more things than us, and it will be useless to have any dissatisfaction with him after the matter has come to this point, since we already know the whole truth, then we will stay in Yishuang City for a few more days, and see if we can find any clues in tonight's night walk of the hundred ghosts!"

Xiao Yuan was still very calm, and he also knew that Xue Ye was not a good city lord who thought about the people at first glance, but he was a disciple of the Qilin Sect, and it was not his turn to point fingers at a city lord, so he motioned to Wang Yize to stop talking, and then turned around and took everyone back to the inn.

After returning to the inn, everyone learned that Nan Kongqian and Lin Shuihan had gone out, because the two of them couldn't help much, so Xiao Yuan also let them go, thinking that they should come back after dark.

And Li Shiran kept his head down, when Li Xuan asked him, he shook his head again, saying that he was fine, in fact, he was thinking about the bizarre death of Fang Huan and Elder Xianlai, at that time, Xue also said that Fang Huan's crazy situation was exactly the same as the monster he encountered in Lin Shuihan's village, could he have been sucked up by the soul rod, and finally ended up with a magic stone?

And that Elder Xianlai, who went mad during the retreat, did sound like that, but wasn't she injured by Fang Huan at that time, so she went to retreat to heal? Generally speaking, it is impossible for her to go mad in retreat and heal, besides, she was able to cast such a thick and lasting mist on the woods in the eastern suburbs before returning to the Heart Valley, which shows the depth of her cultivation......

Li Shiran thought, all this, I'm afraid it's not a mystery that can be solved by finding the magic stone!

In fact, Xiao Yuan had thought of all this he was thinking of, but he felt that the top priority now was to find the magic stone as soon as possible, unlock the secret of the night walk of the hundred ghosts in the Frost City, and then go to Dongchen and find the Silk Pavilion to confirm that the authenticity of this baby and Chu Yanbei would also meet the disciples of Liuxin Valley in Jiangling City, and when the time comes, he can also ask them about the truth of the fact that Elder Xianlai went mad and died.

After Lin Shuihan and Nan Kongqian walked down the hill, they stepped into an empty sandy ground outside the city gate, and as they walked, suddenly the two of them felt a sharp pain in the back of their necks, and even they didn't know what was going on, and they fainted as soon as their eyes were closed.

When they opened their eyes again and woke up, they seemed to find themselves trapped in a cave, the dry grass all over the ground and the air smelled of dry dry grass, and there were only scattered broken stones left around except for the hard stone walls.

Outside the cave, two masked men were standing on the edge of the cave entrance, one on the left and one on the right, motionless.

"What the hell is this place!" Nan Kongqian shouted angrily, his eyes kept going back and forth in this cave, and Lin Shuihan looked at the cave very calmly, looked at the hay on the ground and the light that came out of the cave entrance faintly, thinking that they must have met kidnappers, so he asked Nan Kongqian, "Nankong Qian, you say, will we meet kidnappers?"
