Volume 1 Chapter 65 A Dead City
"Fear is fear, do you need any more reason?"
Yu Wanhuan replied with a flickering look in his eyes, but Mo Lingxuan, who saw her reaction, guessed in his heart that the reason why Xiao Huanhuan was afraid of crows was definitely not as simple as she said, but it was human nature to be afraid of this thing, if there was really something unspeakable and didn't want others to know, it would be a little difficult for a strong man to continue to ask.
Thinking of this, Mo Lingxuan didn't ask anymore, but just glanced at Shen Luochen lightly, and said, "Let's go, this is the first city in the territory of the demon clan, let's settle here tonight, rest for one night, and continue to hurry tomorrow." β
After Mo Lingxuan finished speaking, he walked directly in the direction of the city gate, and he didn't know if the demon clan had any tradition, their city, the city gate was wide open.
Seeing Mo Lingxuan walk into the city gate, Yu Duhuan and Shen Luochen also followed.
"Continue on your way tomorrow?"
Yu Duhuan, who ran to Mo Lingxuan's side, asked puzzledly: "Mo Lingxuan, are you so sure, can't you inquire about the whereabouts of Lingyu here?" Let's ask, maybe someone in the know."
Before Yu Qianhuan could finish his words, Mo Lingxuan stopped, raised his left hand, and interrupted Yu Qianhuan's unfinished words.
"What's wrong?"
Yu Duhuan was curious and asked puzzled.
"Don't make a sound, it's not right here, Shen Luochen, I want to protect Xiao Huanhuan."
Although Mo Lingxuan said this in a commanding tone, Shen Luochen also found something unusual here, nodded solemnly, and vigilantly stayed by Yu Duanhuan's side.
Yu Duhuan looked at Shen Luochen in puzzlement, and then looked at Mo Lingxuan, the two of them obviously noticed that something was wrong, but she didn't find it, she was very depressed in her heart, but she had no choice but to follow Mo Lingxuan quietly.
She has always been a person who is afraid of death, but she doesn't have the intention of killing herself with that kind of curiosity, anyway, with Mo Lingxuan and Shen Luochen by her side, as long as she doesn't do stupid things, she will definitely be safe.
After walking into the city and passing through a few streets, Yu Duhuan finally noticed that something was wrong.
At this hour, although the sky has darkened, it is by no means the middle of the night, the streets they passed by just now, those houses and shops, all of them have closed doors and no lights, even if the people of this demon clan rest early, it will not be so early!
Moreover, after walking for so long, let alone people, I didn't even see a dog, a cat, or anything, and when I was at the city gate just now, I could still see a few crows and hear their calls, but when I entered the city, it was so quiet that there was no sound at all.
If by now, Yu Duhuan still doesn't understand why Mo Lingxuan would say that something is wrong here, then she really has a lack of tendons in her brain.
Walking and walking, Mo Lingxuan stopped, Yu Duhuan and Shen Luochen also stopped, looked at Mo Lingxuan, and saw what he was going to say next.
Although it seemed that Mo Lingxuan was the same age as Yu Duhuan and Shen Luochen, now, the two of them seemed to have regarded Mo Lingxuan as a patriarch and obeyed his command.
"Shen Luochen, Xiao Huanhuan is with me, you are alone, we are divided into two ways, you start from that street, we will check from the other direction to see if there are still people, and after an hour, we will meet here."
"Okay."
Shen Luochen did not hesitate at all, and after nodding in response, he turned around and went to investigate according to Mo Lingxuan's intentions.
Yu Duhuan knew in her heart that the current situation was a little weird, although she wanted to complain about why Mo Lingxuan didn't let her join Shen Luochen's team, but she also knew that now was not the time to have fun, so she followed Mo Lingxuan's side to check door to door with a serious expression.
One, two, threeγγγγγ
After inspecting a whole street, Yu Duhuan's heart was furious.
There was no one in the whole street, and while she was investigating just now, she also touched the tables in those residences, which had accumulated a layer of dust, and it was obvious that no one had cleaned them for a while.
An hour later, Shen Luochen also finished investigating the street that belonged to him, and when he came back, he just frowned and shook his head at Mo Lingxuan.
Yu Wanhuan saw Shen Luochen shaking his head, and knew in his heart that there must be no suspense, Shen Luochen had encountered the same situation as them.
"That's weird."
Mo Lingxuan thoughtfully pinched his waist with one hand, rubbed his chin with the other, and said something in his mouth.
"Where are all the people of this city?"
Yu Duhuan and Shen Luochen came to the territory of the demon clan for the first time, and they wouldn't even know what Mo Lingxuan didn't know, the two of them glanced at each other, then looked at Mo Lingxuan and shook their heads.
Seeing them shaking their heads, Mo Lingxuan couldn't help but put down the hand that was rubbing his chin, and said with a smile: "I didn't ask you, what are you shaking your head?" β
"We're just shaking our heads, how can you say we're answering you?"
Yu Duanhuan retorted angrily, Shen Luochen saw that Mo Lingxuan was about to start arguing with Yu Duanhuan again, and hurriedly interjected: "Mr. Mo, Duhuan, now is not the time to joke, now this city seems to have become a dead city, it is the right thing to investigate this matter clearly, otherwise, if we stay here without knowing anything, we may encounter some danger." β
Speaking of this, Shen Luochen clasped his fists at Mo Lingxuan and said, "Mr. Mo, you are well-informed, what do you think in your heart in this situation?" β
"You can't guess?"
Mo Lingxuan did not directly answer Shen Luochen's question, but raised his eyebrows and asked in disbelief.
Shen Luochen was a little embarrassed by Mo Lingxuan, so he could only smile bitterly and shake his head awkwardly.
"Alas"
Mo Lingxuan had a regretful expression on his face, and shook his head with both hands on his waist.
"Shen Luochen, you are a very smart person, and your roots are not bad, if you have studied with me since you were a child, then your current achievements will be more than that, I really admire your teacher, and taught a good seedling into a type who does not know how to be flexible and only knows etiquette."
Shen Luochen was so stunned by Mo Lingxuan's words that his face turned red, and after a long time, he finally spoke.
"Mr. Mo, this matter is because I am not good at learning, not that my master has a problem with my teaching, and I hope that Mr. Mo, don't say in words that my master is not."
Yu Wanhuan saw that Mo Lingxuan's face became a little ugly, for fear that the two of them would quarrel over this matter, so he simply drew his attention to himself.
"Master, how old are you, I see that your age is about the same as me and Brother Shen, when Brother Shen was young, of course you were also a child, children teach children? I said, don't mistake people's children, I think, the current Brother Shen, very good, very good, I like it,
Hey! β
Mo Lingxuan glared at Yu Qianhuan fiercely and said, "Do you like it?" You have a lot of things you like, Shen Luochen, you are cheap today, I will teach you a lesson for free. β
Speaking of this, Mo Lingxuan's expression returned to his original indifference.
"Just now, before I entered the city, I said that someone here has set up a lock spirit array, let me ask you, what kind of aura is the purest and richest in this heaven and earth."
"Naturally, it's a human, a demon spirit that has been transformed."
Shen Luochen replied honestly, but as soon as he opened his answer, his face changed instantly.
He said with a cloudy expression on his face: "Mr. Mo, what do you mean?"
"That's right, just now in that area, the aura has basically been absorbed by the Soul Locking Array, if the people who set up this array are not satisfied, then expand the scope of the Soul Locking Array to this city, and snatch away all the creatures and aura in this city, then here, it is not surprising that it has become a dead city."
Mo Lingxuan interrupted Shen Luochen's words and replied.
"I'm dripping mom!"
Before Shen Luochen could react, Yu Duhuan was first frightened, she reflexively hid behind Mo Lingxuan, and wrapped Mo Lingxuan's arm tightly with both hands.
This action seemed to have become a subconscious reaction when she was afraid, and Mo Lingxuan just took a deep look at Yu Qianhuan's hand holding his arm, and didn't say anything, nor did he get rid of her.
"Mo Lingxuan, if this area is also where the Locking Spirit Array is located, will we also become like those who disappeared, and finally disappear without a trace?"
Yu Wanhuan raised his head in fear and looked at Mo Lingxuan and asked.
"Mr. Mo, in fact, I still don't know something."
Although Shen Luochen was a little surprised by Yu Duhuan's fear of finding Mo Lingxuan as his first reaction, with his character, no matter how uncomfortable he was, he would not easily show it, not to mention, there were more important things now.
"Say."
Mo Lingxuan just replied to Shen Luochen with one word.
"Mr. Mo, this Lock Spirit Array, it is the aura that is forcibly taken, if this area is really in the Lock Spirit Array, what is taken away is only the aura of the residents of this city, the aura disappears, even if it will die, but it will not even leave the physical body!"
"Brother Shen, could it be because they are all demon clans?"
Yu Duhuan interjected: "After the demon clan transforms, if you want to maintain your human form, you need to be able to do it
