When Xu Lai and the others arrived at the place, Cai Fei was already waiting there.

"Brother Xu, people are here."

The body had been scooped up, covered with a shroud and parked in the car of Section 9.

Xu Lai went in for a preliminary investigation, and the dead man was a man in his forties, and the death was basically the same as Tao Wanyu.

The place where the body was found was on a corner on the east side of Wentai Lane, with high walls on both sides and sparse lighting, but it was not clear where the man had come from.

Personnel from Section 9 scattered in ambush and carpeted outward, but did not find many valuable clues.

The underground sewers in Jiangning City are already extending in all directions, and they are extremely large, and now it is a special moment for the city to be flooded, and there is no way to investigate.

After the preliminary search, Cai Fei left a few people nearby to watch, and then took the body of the deceased back to the ninth department first.

After Xu Lai took Chen Duo around the neighborhood for a while, he also turned back.

In the following days, Kang Lu recovered well, especially with Zhao Xiaomin and Zhang Yichun, two little girls.

But as long as she and Chen Duo collide, these two women are basically going to fight, and there is no one left.

However, the entire Jiangning City was not peaceful, and after Tao Wanyu and the man, nine more people were killed one after another, and all of them were taken over by the Ninth Section.

In just a few days, so many murders have occurred in a row, which is an extremely rare thing in Jiangning City.

What is particularly disturbing is that the deaths of these victims are not exactly the same.

Of the nine people who were killed later, five were the same as Tao Wanyu, but the remaining four were in a different way, they were killed by other evil things.

This also means that today's Jiangning City is likely to be not only a plague of black cloth daffodils, but a harbinger of evil disasters.

The ninth section, including Huang Shaotang and Liao Huaixian, two experienced mages, was all frightened and ready for battle.

Generally speaking, it is not too strange to cause evil disasters, and they have happened a lot over the years.

However, evil disasters often occur in mountain villages and rural areas, and it is extremely rare to occur in densely populated cities.

Even if it was the ghost disaster in Tancheng that day, it was only a man-made disaster, and someone used the subjugation technique to secretly make trouble, which was not a real evil disaster.

There have been several times in history when there were evil disasters in big cities, such as Kaizhou at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, because of years of war, there was an evil disaster, and the people in the city were almost wiped out overnight, and Kaizhou became a dead city.

Therefore, if Jiangning City really causes an evil disaster, the consequences will be extremely terrible.

At present, people are already panicking, and all kinds of speculations are flying on the Internet.

After discussing with the Ninth Section, the relevant departments issued an announcement saying that due to the heavy rain, several large snakes escaped from the deep mountains into the underground water network of Jiangning City, waiting for an opportunity to harm people, so that everyone should be careful and avoid contact with water sources.

For a while, the city was full of storms.

Early that morning, Xu Lai got up and was just about to go downstairs when he heard a knock at the door.

When I opened the door, I saw a beautiful girl standing at the door, and when I saw him, I immediately smiled and said, "Hello, Dean Xu." ”

"It's Xiao Li, what's wrong?" Xu Lai asked with a smile.

This girl is also an acquaintance, it is Ge Tianhong's female apprentice Li Xinrui.

"I'm here to send an invitation to Dean Xu." Li Xinrui smiled and offered the post in her hand with both hands.

Xu Lai took it and looked at it, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, there is another mage gathering?" ”

Li Xinrui was very nervous when she came, but after saying a few words to Xu, she didn't feel that this person was any different from before, but relaxed slightly, bent her eyebrows, and said softly: "Yes, our Jiangning City has not been peaceful recently, and my master wants to gather everyone to make some contributions to the city." ”

"That's pretty good." Xu Lai praised, "But your master used to be quite nosy, so positive this time?" ”

Li Xinrui blushed when he said it, and defended: "It was all a trivial matter before, and my master has always liked Qing Xiu, so he ...... It's too serious now......"

"Okay, I'll go back." Xu Lai naturally didn't want to embarrass a little girl, so he happily accepted the invitation.

"Okay, Dean Xu will see you then." Li Xinrui was overjoyed, "Then I won't bother." After saying goodbye to Xu Lai, he turned around and entered the elevator.

After Li Xinrui left, Xu Lai received a call from Gao Xiang, and it turned out that they had also received the news.

This mage gathering was scheduled for this afternoon, and Xu Lai brought Gao Xiang Gao Xiang, Sun Muyu, Yuan Qi and Peng Kuan together.

The location is still the old place, in Yunsong Study, all the way over, the scenery is pleasant, Yuan Qi can see it and praise it.

When they arrived at the door, it was Li Xinrui who was there to greet the guests, and when they saw Xu Lai coming over, they immediately greeted them and led them inside.

Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu were extremely disgusted with Ge Tianhong's old thing, but they had a very good impression of him as a female apprentice, and they also talked and laughed along the way.

Yuan Qi saw the beautiful girl, and also went up to make a few jokes, but Peng Kuan was silent and silent, just observing the layout in the study house all the way.

When I entered the hall, I saw that there were already many people gathered inside, most of them were familiar faces, but there were also some people who looked at their faces and had never seen them before.

These people originally gathered together in twos and threes, or whispering, or laughing loudly, but when they saw Xu Lai and others coming in, the hall was immediately silent, and all eyes were focused on their group.

Before the change, Sun Muyu was afraid that his feet were already weak, but at this time, he straightened his chest and straightened his waist.

"Old Lan, you're here early." Xu Lai saw Lantian in the crowd at a glance and went over to say hello to him.

"It's not long since I arrived." Lantian said with a smile.

The two of them were talking, and the rest of them were silent, and for a moment the hall was very silent.

"Why didn't everyone else speak?" Xu Lai swept around strangely.

Lan Tian couldn't cry or laugh, thinking that this Dean Xu still likes to play tricks on people, isn't this asking knowingly?

"Dean Xu is here, everyone is welcome." At this time, Master Ge, who was the initiator of the party, finally spoke.

Everyone in the hall was about to applaud, when they saw Xu Lai wave his hand and said, "Excuse me, don't welcome it." ”

Everyone was embarrassed all of a sudden, and they raised their hands and didn't know whether to shoot or not.

"Please take a seat, everyone." Ge Tianhong said lightly.

Everyone immediately found their own seats and sat down, Gao Xiang, Yuan Qi and Peng Kuan stood behind Xu Lai, but Sun Muyu was an exception, he had a seat, and he was on an equal footing with the masters.

Yuan Qi was surprised, but he didn't expect this guy to be so bullish.

Gao Xiang smiled secretly, Yuan Qi and Peng Kuan are newcomers, so naturally they don't know the allusions.

"It's really hard for everyone to gather here today." Ge Tianhong said with a smile.

Everyone hurriedly shook their heads, saying that they should all be.

Min Suying smiled and said, "Master Ge, you have been lying to us for so long, you have to give us an explanation, right?" ”

Someone asked, "What did Master Ge deceive us?" ”

Min Suying clapped her hands and said, "Master Ge has been in our Jiangning for so many years, do all of us think that Master Ge is a one-man family?" ”

Everyone nodded yes.

At present, the masters who are famous in Jiangning basically have backgrounds, and there is a certain sect standing behind them.

But Ge Tianhong's origin has always been extremely mysterious, and it seems that it has nothing to do with any sect, so that everyone thinks that he is a mage without a sect.

"But none of us expected that Master Ge's origin would be so big!" Min So-young said with a smile.

"That's it, none of us thought that Master Ge would actually be a Quanzhen Sect!" There was a lot of talking.

Ge Tianhong pressed his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "I didn't mean to hide it from you, I haven't reinstated the Quanzhen Sect before, so I naturally can't tell the truth." ”

"That's right." Everyone nodded.

"Master Ge's status in the Quanzhen Sect must be very high, right?"

"That's for sure, Master Ge is a highly qualified elder of the Quanzhen Sect, and he is in a high position!"

For a while, everyone praised each other.

However, there were also a small number of people in the audience who hung their heads slightly, looked at the ground with their eyes, and did not say a word.

Those who are here today do not know what happened on Zhongnan Mountain.

The Quanzhen Sect is in full swing, and Ge Tianhong, as an elder of the Quanzhen Sect, naturally everyone has to welcome him.

But although the Dragon and Tiger Academy is a miscellaneous little sect that is nothing, it can't stand the fact that there is a powerful dean in the family, haven't you seen so many bigwigs personally come down that day to support them?

So if you really want to talk about it, the Dragon and Tiger Courtyard is not easy to mess with.

This small group of people belongs to neither side that wants to be offended.

Mage is unmatched
