Upon entering the room, he felt no breath of a living person, and fumbled for an oil lamp.

See the setup in the room. A square wooden table with a worn-out teapot on it, a single bed, and a messy quilt on the bed, the master should have walked in a hurry.

According to what he found, the owner of the house was supposed to be a man, living alone, leaving in a hurry and not even having time to pack his belongings.

Next, Hu Xiaofei inspected several in a row, and the situation was similar.

Sitting on the stool, Hu Xiaofei fell into deep thought.

Where did the whole village go, and what did they encounter before they left in such a hurry.

What is certain is that it was definitely not a bandit raid, otherwise the room would not have been so intact, there was no trace of a fight, and a lot of valuable things were left behind.

The people of the village must have been summoned somewhere, and they did not resist much when they left, and they should not have been away for a long time, as evidenced by the fact that there was no moldy food in the house and clean tables and chairs.

It was supposed to be daytime, which was evident from the lack of a single fire in the village.

Through these clues, Hu Xiaofei roughly deduced that the time when the villagers left should be noon or morning today.

This village is not big, but there are dozens of households and more than 100 people, and it is impossible that there are no elderly people and children among them.

And the place they went to should not be far from this village, with a large group of people, it should be impossible to go far.

Hu Xiaofei now wants to know whether these people are dead or alive now, and what kind of purpose the people who took them away.

"Tonight, it looks like I don't have to sleep."

At night, it must be unrealistic for him to go out to look for these missing villagers, mainly because he is afraid that he will be lost.

found an empty house, lit a brazier, found some vegetables and food in the villagers' homes, and Hu Xiaofei ate hot pot.

"Smack"

"There are really a lot of mosquitoes, with my physique, you mosquitoes actually want to break the defense, first become demons."

After Hu Xiaofei passed the elixir foundation, his physique had already surpassed that of ordinary people by too much.

Not only is the speed, strength, nerve reaction, but also the defense is four or five times that of the average person.

So he usually gets hungry faster, if it weren't for the aura of heaven and earth, Hu Xiaofei felt that he might spend most of the day in eating.

Eating hot pot and looking at the stars in the sky, Hu Xiaofei's heart slowly became calm.

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, Hu Xiaofei came out of the space of the medicine garden.

Finally dawn, it was too dark last night for the village to be seen clearly.

After getting up, Hu Xiaofei made a careful investigation again, and the conclusion was the same as last night.

Following the traces of the villagers leaving, Hu Xiaofei chased all the way to a three-way intersection.

Arriving here, the trail of the road disappeared.

After thinking for a while, Hu Xiaofei still decided to go home, and if he continued to look for it, he would not find too many clues.

The three roads are all mountain roads up the mountain, and once you get into the mountain, more than 100 people are like a drop in the ocean, and it is difficult to find them.

What's more, the mastermind behind the scenes obviously consciously removed the traces they left behind.

After returning to the village in a huff, he took the black horse and continued to Maoshan.

"A village, more than 100 people, just disappeared"

Hu Xiaofei, who has not had a similar experience, is a little difficult to accept, but it is more of an anger, incompetent rage.

After 23 days, Hu Xiaofei finally arrived at Maoshan Mountain.

Maoshan is the birthplace of Taoism's Shangqing faction, Lingbao faction and Maoshan faction, and was once known as "the Qin and Han Dynasty immortal mansions, the home of the prime ministers of the Liang and Tang dynasties". Taoism lists it as the eighth cave of the ten major caves, one of the golden altar Huayang heaven, and the first blessed land among the seventy-two blessed lands. The Gongguan Taoist Institute of Maoshan once had the reputation of "the first in the world".

Looking at the glorious palace group in front of him, Hu Xiaofei couldn't help but sigh, the Maoshan faction is really big.

The crowd of people who came and went, including rich gentry and magnates dressed in gorgeous clothes, and peasant coolies with coarse cloth and short beatings.

All the people who come here have their own wishes.

The Maoshan faction has been flourishing since ancient times, and it has never been passed down during the period.

Entering the main hall, after Hu Xiaofei worshiped his grandfather, he found a little Taoist boy who cleaned up in the hall.

"Hello Brother Dao, do you know where the Futu Daoist resides?"

Xiao Daotong shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

In Maoshan Dao Palace, I don't know how many people there are every day, what Taoist chief this one is looking for, and what Taoist chief is looking for that one.

Xiao Daotong has long been surprised by this.

Seeing Xiao Daotong shaking his head, Hu Xiaofei didn't ask, and walked towards the inner hall with his feet raised.

As soon as he was about to enter the inner hall, he was stopped by a Taoist priest.

"Layman, the inner hall is a place for all real people to meditate and cultivate, and outsiders are not allowed to enter it."

Hu Xiaofei raised his hand to salute.

"Disciple Maoshan, Hu Xiaofei has seen senior brother."

The Taoist priest saw Hu Xiaofei flying in Maoshan's internal etiquette.

After returning the salute, he said.

"I'm sorry, I didn't recognize it, and I ask my junior brother to forgive me."

Hu Xiaofei returned.

"Don't get in the way, I don't know if Senior Brother knows where the Futu Dao Chief's residence is."

When the Taoist priest heard this, he shook his head.

"Is the junior brother looking for the wrong person, in the Maoshan faction, I have basically seen all the Taoist masters with names and surnames, but I have never heard of the Taoist Futu. And we are the Yuan character generation, the previous generation is the green character generation, and the next generation is the feather character generation, the floating character generation you are looking for, I really haven't heard of it. ”

When Hu Xiaofei heard this, he began to suspect that he was a fake Maoshan Taoist.

His master has never said his Tao number, and several of the master's brothers and sisters are also strange and have no connection.

"Why don't you go in and ask the Taoist Chiefs again, what if there is, you don't know him?"

When the Taoist priest heard this, he frowned directly and said solemnly.

"This junior brother, I said no, there must be no, I have been learning the Tao in the mountains since I was a child, it has been more than 25 years, all the peaks and halls of Maoshan Mountain, I dare not say that I recognize them all, but it is really a little difficult to find out one I don't know, so please don't joke anymore."

Seeing that Taoist priest's attitude was so resolute, Hu Xiaofei felt more and more strange.

His master can't be a fake Maoshan Taoist, and he can't be a fake.

But this Taoist priest has been cultivating on the mountain for more than 20 years, so he can't say that he is a fake Maoshan Taoist priest, right?

But in the current situation, there must be one party who is telling a lie, right?

Since he didn't tell a lie, the other party was lying to himself.

"Since Senior Brother doesn't know the Futu Daoist, then I can go in and find it myself."

"That's not good, what if it's a liar, although not many people know Maoshan etiquette, it's not a secret, there are always people under the guise of Maoshan disciples, cheating and drinking outside, ruining our Maoshan door style"

After speaking, he looked at Hu Xiaofei intentionally or unintentionally, as if to say that he was the kind of person who corrupted the style of Maoshan Gate.

When Hu Xiaofei heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore and shouted loudly.

"My master, Maoshan disciple Lin Zhengying, eliminate the demon and protect the way, how can it become a corrupt Maoshan gate wind in your mouth, if you don't let it in, if you don't let it in, don't blame me for being polite."

The Taoist priest saw Hu Xiaofei opening his teeth and claws and wanting to make a move, so he unconsciously took a step back, but then he thought of something, straightened his chest, and was upright again.
