Chapter 223: The Mystery of Disappearance (1)
The night was very late, almost the time of curfew, but Ye Yan never came back.
Could it be that something is wrong?
Ye Zi felt a little uneasy in his heart, and he always felt as if something had happened.
She quietly opened a corner of the curtain and observed it intently, there was no movement in Ye Fang's room, only the sound of light and even breathing, and it seemed that she was asleep.
Lowering the curtain, Ye Zi secretly thought to himself: If Ye Xiangjun really went out with Ye Yan, and the two of them haven't come back so late, aren't Ye Yuguo and Ye Hesheng worried?
Ye Zi really didn't want to wait any longer, so he left the cave lightly. As soon as she left, Ye Fang, who was asleep, moved her eyelids, rolled over, and continued to sleep.
When she came to Ye Hesheng's cave mansion, she found that the door was not closed, and there were many people sitting inside, as soon as she entered, everyone's eyes followed, and their faces were a little heavy.
"Everybody, what is this?" Her heart sank, and she vaguely guessed something.
Ye Yuguo glanced at him angrily, "What are you doing here?" ”
Ye Zi didn't care, "Ye Yan hasn't come back yet, I heard Ye Fang say that she went out with Ye Xiangjun, so I came over to ask." ”
"Xiang Jun didn't come back either, I received a summons from him before, saying that he had discovered something strange, and then there was no more news." Ye Hesheng said solemnly.
Ye Zi was puzzled, "Summons? ”
Ye Yuguo reprimanded impatiently: "This is a secret of the Ye family, you don't have to ask more." We've sent people to look for them, but there's no news yet, and these are people who have gone out to look for them and only come back. ”
Ye Zi was suddenly, no wonder everyone looked tired and didn't speak, it turned out that they were looking for someone to return.
She roughly counted the seventeen people present, including herself, and in addition to Ye Hesheng and Ye Yuguo, there were fifteen who participated in the training. That is to say, in addition to Ye Yan and Ye Fang, who was asleep, there were three people who did not return.
Ye Hesheng seemed to sense what she was thinking. explained: "I divided the people I originally sent out into groups of three, and now there is still a group of people who have not returned, I don't know if they have found any news there." ”
"Oh." Ye Zi nodded, and suddenly thought of something again. asked: "Where did Ye Yan and the others go, do you have any news?" ”
Ye Hesheng shook his head, "No." Ye Xiangjun had no plans to go out, but when he heard that Ye Yan was not feeling well, he went to visit, and the two went out together for some reason. ”
Ye Zi was silent. Could it be that something special happened that forced the two of them to go out? Even if you want to go out, why don't you say hello to the others?
Now that people from all walks of life in Baiyang City are gathered in one city, the fish and dragons are mixed, and the people's hearts are unpredictable, and Ye Xiangjun doesn't seem to be a person who doesn't have this sense of danger.
But the security inside the city is tight, the defense is strict, and the guards are all over every street, so that no one is bold enough to mess with the public, unless it is outside the city......
"Have you checked if the two of them are out of the city?"
Hear the leaf's inquiry. Everyone in the cave was surprised, and Ye Yuguo vetoed, "If they want to go out of the city, how can they not tell me to follow Hesheng?" ”
Ye Zi shook his head thoughtfully, "Maybe it's too late, maybe it's too urgent, maybe it's ......"
"Enough!" Ye Yuguo interrupted angrily: "Speaking of which, these are just your speculations, what proof do you have to prove that they are out of the city?" ”
Ye Zi was speechless, and he was a little annoyed in his heart, so he stopped talking.
Today, there are nearly 10,000 disciples from various families in Baiyang City. Even if the two of them really go out of the city, there may not be a reflection on the guard's side.
In order to facilitate the entry and exit of the disciples of the family who participated in the Immortal Mansion training, the city lord of Baiyang City issued temporary orders one by one, and there was no need to register. You don't have to pay spirit stones. The convenient move of the day has now brought great trouble to the investigation of the movements of Ye Xiangjun and Ye Yan.
Ye Hesheng frowned silently, not knowing what he was thinking, while the others were worried.
The atmosphere is getting more and more solemn.
Suddenly, there were a few footsteps at the outer door, and everyone's expressions tightened. Ye Hesheng and Ye Yuguo had already rushed out.
When Ye Zi came out, he saw three Ye family members standing outside the door to report the news, "...... Later, we went to the north of the city again, but we still didn't find any news, and we had to come back first when the guards reminded us that the curfew time was coming. ”
Ye Hesheng nodded heavily, "Okay, everyone is tired today, so let's go back to rest and come back early tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes."
Everyone went back to the cave mansion, leaving only Ye Hesheng, Ye Yuguo and a male disciple of the Ye family who lived here.
Seeing that Ye Zi hadn't left, Ye Hesheng looked tiredly, "It's not too early, Gaozu should go back and rest first." ”
Ye Zi originally wanted to say something more, but seeing that Ye Hesheng and Ye Yuguo were dark and blue at the eyes, and their breath was burning, they had to swallow the words on the tip of their tongue and said with concern: "Then I'll go back first." You should also have a good night's rest, and talk about it tomorrow. ”
Ye Yuguo didn't shake his face this time, but he didn't pay attention to her either, and turned around and walked inside without saying a word. The male disciple standing on the side saw the awkward atmosphere and quietly lowered his head.
"You go back first." Listening to Ye Hesheng's instructions, if he received amnesty, he turned around and walked inside.
As a result, only Ye Zi and Ye Hesheng were left outside the door.
Ye Hesheng lowered his voice a little bitterly and said: "Before going out, the elder of the big clan repeatedly told me to take care of everyone, and I also know that the experience is not trivial, and anything can happen along the way, but I didn't expect to enter Baiyang City and ......."
Seeing his depressed expression, Ye Zi hurriedly persuaded: "You don't have to blame yourself too much. On the bright side, maybe they just got trapped in some accident, or they went to a distant place and couldn't come back in time. ”
There is also a possibility that Ye Zi didn't say it, that is, maybe the two really had an accident.
Whether it was Ye Xiangjun or Ye Yan, who had been with her the night before, she didn't want to see any accidents happen to any of them.
It was also from this moment that she truly felt the cruelty of the cultivation realm. It's just an experience, and the real battle hasn't started yet, but the battle seems to have started early.
Back in the cave, Ye Fang was not affected in any way, and still slept soundly.
Ye Zi had no intention of cultivating, and after returning to the room, he took out the Qi Pharmacopoeia to find out the cultivation method of those herbal seedlings he had bought before, and before he knew it, a night had passed.
By the time Ye Fang woke up, Ye Zi had just finished a big week. After exhaling a breath of turbid air and washing with water, Ye Zi lifted the curtain energetically, just as Ye Fang walked out of his room.
"Oh, Gaozu is also awake?"
Ye Zi replied casually, "Hmm." By the way, Ye Hesheng ordered to go over when he woke up early this morning...... Something to say. Endure it, she didn't tell Ye Yan about not returning all night.
Ye Fang nodded, suddenly walked to Ye Yan's room, and shouted, "Sister Yan? ”
"Hey...... Let's go first. Ye Zi pulled her out and walked out, Ye Fang obediently did not resist, but her face was very puzzled, "Gaozu, aren't we waiting for Sister Yan?" Her room doesn't seem to be moving, so she can't get up yet, right? ”
Ye Zi was walking, and when he heard her words, he suddenly stopped, turned around and asked, "Let me ask you, did Ye Yan say anything else yesterday?" ”
Ye Fang thought for a moment before shaking her head, "No." Before I went to find Brother Feng, I invited Sister Yan to join me, but she said that she was not feeling well and didn't want to go, so there was nothing else. (To be continued.) )
