In front of the Tongfu Inn.

As soon as Lin Dong and Mu Qing'er appeared, they were stopped.

"Two, you can't go in here for the time being." The one who spoke was a big man with a beard and a scumbag, this big man looked like a monk, but his cultivation was not very high, and it was like the early stage of gathering spirits, the big man used a very wide sword, this kind of sword can almost be called a knife, the sword looks very heavy, it can be seen that the arm of this big man is very powerful.

"Why don't you let in?" Lin Dong asked.

"This ......" Dahan didn't know how to answer, of course Dahan could see that Lin Dong and Mu Qing'er were both monks, and their cultivation was much higher than him, especially Mu Qing'er, which directly gave Dahan an indescribable sense of oppression.

At this time, an old man saw the situation here, coughed a few times from afar, and then said to the big man: "Big Tiger, you go to the back door to watch first, and leave it to me to deal with it first." ”

The big man named Dahu suddenly felt no sense of oppression, and ran in the direction of the back door without a moment's delay.

Soon, the old man came to Lin Dong and Mu Qing'er.

"Are you two here for the Tongfu Inn?" The old man asked.

Lin Dong and Mu Qing'er nodded.

"Alright, please come with me, both of you." The old man didn't ask anything, but motioned for Lin Dong and Mu Qing'er to follow.

Lin Dong and Mu Qing'er glanced at each other, and then Lin Dong walked in the middle, while Mu Qing'er cautiously watched the situation around her.

In fact, from the time Lin Dong and Mu Qing'er approached the Tongfu Inn, Mu Qing'er had sensed a very strong demonic aura, which was the breath that only high-level demon beasts and demon beasts that had already transformed into shapes.

Lin Dong's cultivation is still only in the Gathering Spirit Realm, although there are already signs of a breakthrough, but before there is a formal breakthrough, it is still only a Gathering Spirit Realm.

The monks of the Gathering Spirit Realm were not aware of the existence of demonic energy, even if Mu Qing'er told Lin Dong about it, but Lin Dong still did not have a real understanding.

"Be careful, I always think that the demon beast is probably still in the Tongfu Inn." Mu Qing'er reminded cautiously.

Lin Dong nodded: "Don't worry, I know what to do, but it's you, your cultivation is too high, it's very eye-catching." ”

"I'm fine, it's because of my high cultivation that the demon beast doesn't dare to attack me easily." Mu Qing'er said.

"Let's both be careful anyway." Lin Dong smiled slightly.

Mu Qing'er also smiled slightly, and then the two no longer had any communication.

Under the leadership of the old man, Lin Dong and Mu Qing'er soon entered the Tongfu Inn, the facilities inside the Tongfu Inn were destroyed beyond recognition, and there were blood stains everywhere, which alone was enough to think of how cruel the scene was at that time.

"We are basically certain that it was the demon fox who committed the murder this time, but there is no way to determine what kind of demon fox it is." The old man said.

Mu Qing'er nodded, indeed, only based on these traces on the scene, there was no way to deduce what kind of demon fox did it.

There are many kinds of demon foxes, in the Star Continent, especially in the range of the Nine Mountains, there are more than 30 kinds of demon foxes in the Ninth Mountains, among which there are three kinds of demon foxes with relatively strong strength, namely red foxes, white foxes, and three-tailed foxes, these three kinds of demon foxes are the most ferocious with the three-tailed fox, and the strength of an adult three-tailed fox is comparable to that of a monk in the late stage of Gathering Spirits, and it is extremely difficult to hunt the three-tailed fox, and it takes at least five monks in the late stage of Gathering Spirits to be able to hunt successfully.

But these three demon foxes of the Nine Mountains all live at the junction of the Nine Mountains and the Eight Mountains, and there is no reason why they will appear in the outer areas of the Nine Mountains and sneak into the town, hurting people's lives.

The strength of the demon fox in the eighth mountain range is much stronger, and the lowest grade demon fox, that is, the black fox, is comparable in strength to the three-tailed fox, in the eighth mountain range, there are more than 100 types of demon foxes, the most powerful of which is the nine-tailed demon fox, but the nine-tailed demon fox generally does not take the initiative to harm humans, especially in the current situation, it is almost impossible to sneak into the human world and cause such a major casualty.

But the nine-tailed demon fox can transform into shape, and as far as humans know, among all the demon fox species in the eighth and ninth mountain ranges, the only demon beast that can transform is the nine-tailed demon fox.

Therefore, the suspicion of the nine-tailed demon fox is still the greatest.

This made Mu Qing'er feel very incomprehensible, a nine-tailed demon fox clan who was the least likely to take the initiative to harm humans and maintained a very high vigilance against humans, would be the most suspicious one.

"You also thought of the nine-tailed demon fox, we have confirmed this, no nine-tailed demon fox has left the eighth mountain range recently, including the ninth mountain range, and there has been no activity of the nine-tailed demon fox clan in the past half a year." The old man said.

"According to the results you found out, the suspicion of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox Clan has been completely ruled out, is that so?" Lin Dong asked.

"That's right, that's right." The old man sighed and replied.

"No, since it is certain that all this is done by the demon fox clan, then the only one who can enter this town is the transformation of the nine-tailed clan is the most likely, if it is other demon foxes, it is impossible to leave the Nine Mountains." Mu Qing'er expressed the doubts in her heart.

There is an unwritten rule in the town, but all hunting teams, to enter the town, are not allowed to carry monsters alive, even the most ordinary monsters, the residents of the town are ordinary people, must ensure the safety of the town's residents, any safety hazards are not allowed.

Because of this, Mu Qing'er has this question.

"But that's what we investigated, so the case became unsolved." The old man sighed again.

"Then what are you going to do with the affairs of the Tongfu Inn?" Mu Qing'er asked.

The old man glanced up at Mu Qing'er, and after feeling the oppression of Mu Qing'er's cultivation, the old man didn't dare to hide it in the slightest: "If you can't find the real murderer, there is no way to solve it, and the Tongfu Inn will be demolished and rebuilt." ”

"So you mean that all these people at the Tongfu Inn died in vain, right?" Lin Dong felt very incredible.

"There's no way to deal with it...... old man sighed helplessly.

The old man's identity is the mayor of this town, and the old man told Mu Qing'er and Lin Dong that the town will be sealed early tomorrow morning, and only allowed to go out at that time, not allowed to enter, and the old man also begged Mu Qing'er and Lin Dong to stay and help, for this reason, the old man also expressed his worries.

"I think the demon fox who committed the murder must still be in the town, but we are all ordinary people, and it is extremely dangerous to stay and deal with the demon beasts, we have invited more than a dozen monks to help, but the cultivation of these dozen monks is not high, and the highest is only the cultivation of the middle stage of the spirit gathering, if the demon fox really appears, it is estimated that it will be difficult to kill it." The old man looked helpless.

"Don't wait until tomorrow, I can solve this matter tonight, but before I can deal with this matter, you have to have people evacuate from the area around the Tongfu Inn." Mu Qing'er said to the old man.
