Chapter 15: The Mystery of Demon Cultivation's Traces

This town is located on the edge of the Danyan Kingdom, and the place is remote. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but the local area is a very famous mining county. So the scale of this town is not small, and the houses are quite local in nature.

At this time, in the county office, the county officials were respectfully receiving four young people with extraordinary bearing.

These four people were Zhaoyue and the others who went out for trials, they took the task, received a small flying spirit weapon through the thorn card, and went all the way south to come here. Landing a few hundred meters away from the town, he cautiously entered the town, only to find that the town was peaceful. Hang the banner of the market, solicit business, and the pedestrians of the market are rubbing shoulders one after another, and the river is endless. There is not a shadow of fear, but a prosperous town that is rare to see. They came to the county office with suspicious faces to show their identities and intentions.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this matter was told by a young man. He said that his sister had been abducted by the Demon Cultivator, but we questioned his uncle and told him that her sister had fallen into the water and drowned. He was too sad and obsessed thinking that his sister was taken captive by Demon Cultivator, and his words should not be true. After listening to the words of the county magistrate, the four of them were a little stunned.

"In that case, why report it." Zhuang Shang said with some dissatisfaction.

"Uh, this. He stopped the governor who was passing by. The county magistrate, who was nearly fifty years old, lowered his head and wiped his sweaty forehead with his wide sleeves.

"How did the governor believe him!" Tian Bo asked suspiciously.

"This, this villain doesn't know." The county magistrate lowered his head, and the clothes behind his back were completely wet with sweat.

"Call the boy and we'll ask about it." Zhao Yue couldn't ask a reason when she looked at this, and she still needed a description from the person concerned.

The four of them dismissed the county magistrate, sat down at the table, and discussed. This situation was something that the four of them didn't expect, but after thinking about it carefully, why the mission of Demon Cultivation was just a low-level task, maybe it was uncertain, and they were sent to find out the truth.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, the county magistrate came in with a thin boy in a green coat and linen, sweating profusely.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the people have already brought it." The county magistrate still greeted him with sincere fear.

"You're the one who found the traces of demonic cultivation." Zhuang Shang looked at the young man and asked.

"Yes, my sister was taken captive by the Demon Cultivators. Please save my sister. The boy knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing. Before they could stop it, the boy fell to the ground. Xia Chengzhou hurriedly shot out an aura in his body.

Tian Bo helped the young man up, this young man was so thin and terrible, his hand held the young man's arm, and he felt as if he was grasping a piece of wood. Placing the young man in the seat, Tian Bo looked at him with some pity, this young man had chapped lips, sallow skin and dry hair, presumably living in a tight situation on weekdays.

Xia Chengzhou's input of aura made the young man's situation much better.

"County magistrate, go and get some food." Akitsuki handed a cup of tea to the boy.

"You take it slowly." Tian Bo looked at the young man and asked, feeling a little pity for the young man.

In the teenager's staccato description, they knew a rough idea.

The young man's name is Wang Yu, and his sister's name is Wang Hui. After the death of their parents in the mining accident, the two relied on each other, usually relying on their sister Wang Hui to help embroider and do laundry for others, and occasionally their uncle's family would help them. On that day, his sister went to his uncle's house and did not return for a long time, and he was worried that something would happen, so he went to his uncle's house to find his sister. But unexpectedly, on the way out of town, I saw my uncle and aunt walking to the suburbs with my sister. When he saw this, he followed, and saw the three of them walking to a pond.

Suddenly, the wind blew, and a black figure more than eight feet tall appeared beside the three of them, and the elder sister fell to the ground. But my uncle and aunt knelt on the ground and bowed to the black shadow. The black shadow turned into a cloud of fog and enveloped the three of them. He rushed up but passed out for some reason, and when he woke up, he was left alone by the pond.

When I returned home, I was told that my sister accidentally fell into the water on the way to the next town yesterday, and the river was rushing and her life was lost, and the body did not know where to go downstream.

He told everyone what he had seen, but no one in the town believed him. It is said that he is crazy and stunned. Only the governor who was passing by listened to his request and went to inspect the pond. Tell him that this matter may have been done by the demon cultivators.

After listening to Wang Yu's words, Zhaoyue felt that this matter might not be simple.

"Since this matter is related to his uncle and aunt, I will ask these two to come over and verify the situation." Zhuang Shang said to the county magistrate who was standing aside.

"The two of them have been waiting outside for a long time." The county magistrate brought in 2 middle-aged couples. The two men were evidently well-off, plump, with fine cotton robes and clean shoes and socks, and the wife wore a gold bracelet with auspicious cloud patterns on her hand and a hairpin with a green hairpin on her head.

The middle-aged man first humbled himself, glanced at Wang Yu and said to them.

"Immortal, this kid is full of nonsense, if all three of me are taken captive by the demon cultivator in his mouth, how can my husband and wife be safe and sound. Besides, he said that the two of us went to the suburbs with Wang Hui's niece, which is pure fiction! On that day, my wife and I were having dinner at a neighbor's house, and more than a dozen neighbors could testify. And someone has long seen Wang Hui go to the next county alone. Where will you go to what suburban pond and meet what magic cultivators! Wang Haizhong said this, and his attitude was very sincere.

Looking at the well-founded Wang Haizhong, everyone was a little puzzled.

Seeing this scene, Wang Yu excitedly said to Zhaoyue: "I obviously saw that my sister was taken captive by the demon cultivator with them, and the governor also confirmed what I said. It's true! What I said is true! It's true... Ahem.." The fierce words made him cough constantly, so that he could not speak and could not stand upright.

Seeing that Wang Yu was so emotional, Tian Bo said, "You go to the guest room to rest first, and we will find out the truth." Wang Yu left the room and looked back at them with earnest eyes. This kind of look made Zhaoyue very uncomfortable.

But after they questioned several townspeople, what they got was that what Wang Yu said was pure fiction.

"It looks like it's just a farce." Zhuang Shang rubbed his forehead.

"We can't make up our minds yet, let's go to the pond in Wang Yu's mouth to take a look, and the governor noticed something here before, so he reported that there was a demon cultivator here. There must be something out of the ordinary. Zhaoyue stood up and said.

The four of them discussed it, and decided to go and see it first, although Zhuang Shang thought that this matter was clear, but it was just the fantasy of an overly sad child, and he was very dissatisfied and didn't want to waste any time.

Knowing the address from the county magistrate, the four of them went to the pond. Looking at this ordinary pond, I didn't feel anything out of the ordinary.

Since a mortal governor can see the clues, if there is something, then they must detect something.

However, even if the Divine Senses carefully examined the entire pond, even a few hundred meters around the pond, they could not find the slightest clue.

"I say, this is the child's cranky thoughts, and the governor thinks that he is soft-hearted and misjudged the matter." Zhuang Shang hugged his arms and said dissatisfiedly.

"Well, it seems so. Let's go back to the town first. Tian Bo was also a little disappointed. Zhao Yue was also very unhappy with Wang Yu's deception in her heart.

The four returned to the town disappointed, and the town was still crowded. The hawker carrying the burden shouted, and the shopkeeper was also busy. Energetic teenagers were talking loudly in groups of threes and twos. There are also little boys playing on the side of the street.

No, suddenly Zhaoyue felt that there was something strange about this picture, and her heart seemed to notice something. He looked around carefully.

The lively streets, but Zhaoyue has a feeling of falling into an ice cellar. She turned back to the others in fear. But I saw that Tian Bo's face was also as earthy.
