Chapter 17: The People on the Road at Night

"Your Uncle Xiao has changed."

In the twilight, the last touch of the sun reflected the shadow of the boy unexpectedly long.

Walking out of the Demon Hunter Legion Reserve Camp in the west of the city, he looked at the dusk in the curling smoke, thinking about what Don King had said to him.

After coming out of Yueshan's "Hutchison Medicine Shop", he went straight to the Demon Hunting Legion Reserve Camp in the west of the city, because Uncle Xiao and Xiao Qi were here.

And the main purpose of his visit to Scarlet Cloud City this time, in addition to buying iron vines, shutter flowers, and blue blood snake snake gallbladders, is also to find him Uncle Xiao to listen to the situation in Nanliang Village and Li Shan

However, unfortunately, Xiao Huan and Xiao Qi happened to be not in the camp, Xiao Huan went to Liwu City, and Xiao Qi went out with the team to practice.

So he went to visit Tang Jin, who had also worshiped his father, the one he had argued with Xiao Huan before going to the Soul Temple.

It's just that when he found Tang Jin in a residence in the camp, the other party told him something about Xiao Huan in a serious tone.

said that Xiao Huan is no longer the Uncle Xiao he used to be, since he came back from the world outside the wall after three years of fighting.

Xiao Huan began to become more inflammatory, not only getting very close to those people in the inner city, but even the people in the other two cities were often moving around.

So Tang Jin instructed Mo Fan to keep him away from Xiao Huan, and also told him.

In fact, he went to the Soul Temple to garrison, which was proposed by one of Xiao Huan's closest subordinates.

……

Mo Fan felt a little cold now, dragging his heavy steps, step by step away from the Demon Hunting Legion's reserve camp.

Walking in the infinitely beautiful sunset, he seemed so lonely.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Xiao, who has always taken good care of him, actually has an unknown side.

This was obviously an unacceptable blow to him.

Originally, Tang Jin also had doubts about what he said to him, but he suddenly recalled what the corpse puppet told him, and when Xiao Huan went to the Soul Temple that day to deal with the cause of Zheng Xiuxiu's death.

I remember that Li Shan was flattering to him at that time, and the corpse puppet who turned into the head of Nanliang Village and Zheng Xiuxiu's mother was afraid.

From here, it is not difficult to find that Xiao Huan is indeed very problematic.

In addition, all kinds of strange phenomena in the Soul Temple, as well as those mysterious deaths who were stationed in the Soul Temple before.

In the twilight that was about to pass, he suddenly had a very bad guess in his heart.

Thinking of this speculation, he felt a chill inexplicably, and even had a plan in his heart that he didn't want to be in the Soul Returning Temple.

But when the twilight breeze swept across his cheeks, he suddenly became smart.

If he really doesn't return to the Soul Temple, then it will really give those who want him to die a chance.

So his mind was clear, he frowned like a sword, and then quickened his pace and walked in the direction of the city gate.

……

"Is there anything unusual about that teenager?"

At dusk, on a four-story drum tower on the highest in the outer city of Scarlet Cloud City.

A middle-aged man with a thin figure and a straight eight-figure eyebrows asked the gentle young man beside him with his hands behind his back.

"Ahem, ahem, everything is as usual," the young man's face was not too good, he looked slightly sickly, and when he heard the middle-aged man ask, he coughed a few times and replied.

"What about Nanliang Village?" The middle-aged man frowned, and suddenly asked again.

"Not very optimistic, Li Shan said that the night before yesterday, a trace of consciousness woke up from a deep sleep."

"What's the matter," the middle-aged man's face suddenly gloomy after hearing the gentle answer.

"I don't know, when Li Shanwu went back the night before, which one woke up a trace of consciousness and had returned to his body and fell into a deep sleep again," the gentle young man shook his head and said.

"That being the case, then...... That tree, that tomb, that tablet, what has changed about them. The middle-aged man pondered for a while and then asked.

"It's still the same, and it's probably hard to find the entrance to the villa from them," the mild-mannered young man replied, shaking his head.

"In this way, it is a waste to invest so much manpower and material resources." The middle-aged man's gloomy face was like a dark cloud, and it seemed that he had the urge to explode at any time.

"It can't be said to be a waste in vain, at least Xiao Huan and Li Shan of the Abyss are now our people," the gentle young man said indifferently.

Hearing the gentle young man say this, the middle-aged man's face was a little better.

Then I saw him turn his head, look at the gentle young man, and say to him with a very solemn face.

"That one, did you find it?"

"Ahem, ahem...... No, no," the gentle young man who had been watching the sunset with his eyes on it deepened his pale face when he heard that one.

Covering his mouth and coughing, he replied.

"Alas!"

Hearing the gentle young man's answer, the middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh.

That one would be too useful to them, if they didn't find it before the goblins that had infiltrated the walls.

At that time, there will not only be a great terror inside the wall, but the most important place that has been operating outside the wall for so long will be destroyed at that time.

This is not what he wants to see, and it is not what the people of the inner city and the other two cities want to see.

So......

Thinking of the terrible consequences, two cold lights suddenly shot out of the middle-aged man's eyes, and he said in a commanding tone to the gentle young man.

"Tell Wang Mu to them, don't take care of the ordinary people outside the city, and first pull out a batch of ghosts and monsters that sneaked into the wall."

"Have you figured it out? In this way, the villages outside the city will not be peaceful, and ghosts will run rampant. ”

The middle-aged man's words made the gentle young man's face change greatly, and he hurriedly withdrew his hopeful gaze and looked at the middle-aged man beside him, and asked rhetorically with persuasion in his words.

"That's it," the middle-aged man replied firmly, waving his hand.

Sunset cherishes the last glimpse of the earth, and it knows that its disappearance will bring infinite darkness to the land, but there are some things that it cannot change.

It stays for a long time, and the night will come to collect it after all.

Mo Fan, who came to the city gate at such an instant, looked at the last afterglow that disappeared from the sky, frowned, and plunged into the darkness outside the city without hesitation.

……

"Drive!" Zhang Dong sat on the side of the carriage, holding a red paper lantern in one hand and driving the carriage with a horse rope in the other.

Looking at the gloomy night, he was very familiar with the road from Scarlet Cloud City back to Xixiang Town.

If it weren't for the fact that the young lady in the carriage was afraid of the dark and there was no lantern lighting, he could still return to Xixiang Town in the dark.

"Uncle Zhang has worked hard for you," a beautiful woman's voice came from the carriage in the darkness.

"It's not hard, it's not hard, I've been driving the carriage all my life, and I'm used to it." Hearing the voice of the young lady in the carriage, Zhang Dong replied flatteredly.

"Then there's Lawrass," said the woman in the carriage again.

But at this moment, the horse, which was trotting with a cart, suddenly raised its hooves and neighed.
