Chapter 22: Mutation
walked out of the underworld unhurriedly, and the Yin Lord did not return his head, and waited until he got out of the city gate before stopping. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, the Stygian Sea was unusually calm, and there was not a trace of wind and waves on the huge sea, and it looked like a crystal clear black gem, blooming with a blurry brilliance in the moonlight.
The Yin Lord looked into the distance, and it seemed that something was hovering on the surface of the sea, motionless, and he couldn't see clearly.
Gently stepping on the surface of the sea, a trace of ripples trembled under the feet of the Yin Lord, and the ripples slowly expanded, and soon disappeared. He took another step forward, but it was as if he was stepping on the ground, and there was not a trace of movement on the sea.
Slowly walking up to the black shadow, the Yin Lord whispered, "Why are you here?" ”
Raising its head and looking at him, the ghost Jiao looked a little listless, it opened its mouth, and whispered, "You left this time, will you come back?" ”
"I don't know." The Yin Lord smiled freely. For this guy who almost killed him, he really couldn't hold hatred in his heart, but had some sympathy.
Taking a deep breath, Ghost Jiao hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget it this time, I'll try with you again when you come back next time." ”
Nodding slightly, the Yin Lord replied, "Okay." ”
After getting the answer, the ghost Jiao didn't speak again, and gently closed his eyes, as if he was asleep.
The Yin Lord didn't say anything more and walked away silently.
A drop of blood dripped down, and the sea surface was splashed with ripples again, and the Yin Lord stepped into the circle and disappeared into the Stygian Sea.
After he had been away for a while, Ghost Jiao slowly opened his eyes. It first looked at the place where the Yin Lord had disappeared, and then at the city of the underworld, where there was no light, sighed lightly, and disappeared into the Stygian Sea.
Suddenly, the sea became rough, and rows of huge waves rushed towards the city of Hades with an almost tsunami-like momentum, but when they approached, they suddenly collapsed, splashing only the somewhat dilapidated gate.
But all this Yin Lord didn't know, at this time he had returned to the Yin family, looking at the mess in the manor.
In just a few hours, the Yin family manor has been turned into a ruin, the originally flat land seems to have been reclaimed, and the villas have also collapsed, and a few wisps of black smoke can still be seen in the dark, and the original appearance is completely unrecognizable.
Walking on the soft earth, the face of the Yin Lord was very gloomy. He looked at the situation at home and didn't say a word, just clenched his fists tightly, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were a little hideous.
He saw some corpses in the ruins, most of them servants, but also some of his people. What surprised him the most was that he even saw several corpses of the elders of the Yin Family.
These people can also be regarded as the existence of a giant outside, and at this time, they are lying quietly in the curling smoke, the expression on their faces looks a little hideous, and the Yin Lord found that there is an elder with angry eyes, and his mouth is wide open as if there is still a mouthful of anger in his throat, which is quite a bit dead.
The Yin Lord's face became worse and worse, and it was not until he observed the whole place that he calmed down a little. He didn't find the bodies of his parents here, so he thought that the two of them should not be worried about their lives for the time being.
After standing in the cold night wind for a while, the Yin Lord finally left silently, leaving the mess all over the ground.
After leaving, he did not return to the Stygian Sea or go to Z City, but took a train to a small town in the early hours of the morning and did not reach his destination until the afternoon.
This is the first time he has come to Huo Xiaolu's hometown alone, but he is also familiar with the road. This time, he did not go to Huo Xiaolu's house, but went straight to the Huo family ancestral hall.
When he arrived at the ancestral hall, he saw that Granny Lin and Huo Jinghong, who had not been seen for a long time, were there, and there was another person he hadn't expected.
"Mr. Naihe?" The Yin Lord was a little surprised.
The three of them were discussing something together, and when they heard the voice, they all raised their heads together, and they were a little surprised to see that it was him.
"Mr. Yin, why are you here?" Huo Jinghong immediately greeted him.
The Yin Lord waved his hand and said, "I came this time because I had something important to discuss with Lin Shen. Why are you here, sir? ”
Nai He bowed slightly and said, "Coincidentally, the old body came this time to find Lin Shen." ”
"Huh?" The Yin Lord suddenly felt bad in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Is something wrong?" ”
Hearing this, his face was a little gloomy: "Just yesterday, more than ten families in the Yin and Yang Realm of Life and Death have disappeared. ”
The Yin Lord was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"I don't know," Na He's face was unusually ugly, "At present, I know that sixteen families have evaporated overnight, and there are no more people, and the base camps of each family have also been destroyed. ”
After a pause, the Yin Lord slowly spoke, "It's seventeen now. ”
"What!" The three of them were not in a hurry and shouted at the same time.
However, looking at the Yin Lord's depressed face, he said with some hesitation: "What you said won't be ......"
The Yin Lord nodded and said, "That's right, it's our Yin family." ”
Now everyone was speechless. Although it was surprising that the disappearance of more than a dozen families, the three of them could still be somewhat calm in their hearts, after all, they were only some families at the bottom of the ranking. But the Yin family is different, one of the five impermanent families, looking at the Yin and Yang realm of life and death, which is a real giant-level existence, even disappeared overnight?
At this time, Granny Lin cautiously asked, "Mr. Yin, do you know what's going on?" ”
The Yin Lord shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I think my father should know something." It was only when he reminded me that I went out, and I was lucky enough to avoid this catastrophe. ”
Looking at his expressionless face, the three of them didn't know what to say for a while.
However, the Yin Lord himself quickly eased up, looked at Granny Lin and said, "Granny Lin, I want to see Lin Shen, can you help me contact me?" ”
As soon as she heard this, Granny Lin suddenly looked embarrassed, and explained: "I can't contact Lin Shen now, and he is also missing." ”
"What? Lin Shen is also missing? "The Yin Lord felt that his head was getting bigger, and he felt that things were getting more complicated.
However, he said with a serious expression: "This matter is a bit tricky, we don't even know who the murderer is now, and we can't analyze what the other party's motives are." ”
After pondering for a moment, the Yin Lord asked, "Then have you investigated whether the other vanished families have any connections or commonalities?" ”
"Nope." He shook his head decisively, "I consulted with the people from the judge's family before I came at noon today, but I didn't find any contact. ”
The Yin Lord's brows furrowed tightly, and he felt a little dazed for a while.
At this time, Huo Jinghong asked, "Sir, do you have any plans?" ”
"Nope." The Yin Lord waved his hand very bluntly.
Huo Jinghong was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Then why don't you stay here for a few days now, and wait to see if there will be any new news?" ”
After hesitating for a moment, the Yin Lord glanced at him and said, "No, I'm going to investigate elsewhere to see if there are any clues, so I won't bother." ”
Hearing this, Huo Jinghong was a little disappointed: "Originally, I wanted to ask Mr. to guide the cultivation of the next generation, but since Mr. has something important, let's wait until the next day." ”
The Yin Lord nodded and said, "Okay, I'm leaving." ”
Without a moment's delay, after the Yin Lord came out of Huojia Village, he used a retreat technique at the entrance of the village, and in a blink of an eye, he didn't know where he went.
After he left, Nai He, who stayed in the Huo family ancestral hall, couldn't help but sigh and muttered, "It's really eventful." ”
Granny Lin came over and asked respectfully, "Sir, it's not too early, do you want to eat something?" ”
Nai He waved his hand and said, "No need, I don't have any appetite now." It's getting late, and it's time for me to take my leave. ”
"You haven't even drunk saliva after being here for so long, how can you leave now?" Granny Lin hurriedly said.
Nai He smiled and said, "Don't be so polite, I will definitely come back to visit when I have time in the future." ”
Seeing that her intention to go was decided, Granny Lin didn't hold back too much: "Then you can go." ”
waved his hand, but disappeared into thin air, and he didn't know where he was going.
After there were two people missing, the Huo family ancestral hall suddenly became much more deserted. The candle flame gradually lit up, and the two slightly rickety figures stood for a long time, speechless for a long time.
At this time, there are already people in the Stygian Sea who are going crazy.
"What, the Yin Lord is gone by himself?" Huo Xiaolu couldn't help but shout.
Huihui frowned, obviously not expecting him to react so much. She explained: "The young lady said that Yin Gongzi had something important to deal with, so she left first. ”
Huo Xiaolu asked, "Then did he say when he would come back?" ”
"Nope." Huihui shrugged.
Seeing his anxious appearance, Huihui cautiously asked, "Huo Gongzi, why are you in such a hurry?" ”
Huo Xiaolu said while pacing back and forth, "Can I not be in a hurry?" Something must have happened to him in such a hurry. ”
At this time, Yi Ran, who had been silent on the side, said: "I'll just say, he was a little abnormal when he came, and it felt like something had happened." ”
Then she glanced at Huo Liuli, who was eating apples on the side, and couldn't help asking, "Senior sister, do you know what happened when the Yin Lord went out?" ”
"I don't know." Huo Liuli didn't seem to care, just nibbling on the apple in small bites.
At this time, Yi Ran was a little confused: "Then why don't you seem to be worried at all?" ”
"What is there to worry about?" Huo Liuli smiled and said, "If something really serious happens, he will definitely tell me." Since he didn't tell me this time, it means that it is not an important matter, at most it is a little urgent. ”
Yi Ran nodded thoughtfully: "Yes." ”
"So, don't think about it, I guess he'll be back in a few days." Huo Liuli took a big bite of the apple and said vaguely.
Huo Xiaolu frowned: "Okay, then let's wait for him to come back." ”
None of the four people in the room spoke again. Huo Xiaolu and Yi Ran sat together, frowning and not knowing what they were thinking, while Huihui was sitting on the windowsill, blowing the wind while looking at Huo Liuli with a smile.
Swallowing the apple in his mouth with great effort, Huo Liuli wiped his mouth with the back of his hand without any image, and took another big bite. (To be continued.) )
