Chapter 25: A City-wide Search

The next day, Wen Yin sat up from a bunk and touched her head, which was still a little sore after the hangover, and some sporadic memories of last night instantly flooded into her mind.

"Ah~ What did I do yesterday!" She buried her head in the covers.

At this time, Lu Yuan came over with a basin of water and some meat porridge, and said to Wen Yin, "Awake? Come wash your face, drink some porridge and sober up the wine. ”

While Wen Yin was drinking porridge, Lu Yuan asked tentatively, "Do you remember the question I asked you yesterday?" ”

Wen Yin immediately put the porridge down, "What's the problem?" Did I talk nonsense? ”

Lu Yuan was a little lost, don't you remember? Then ask again.

"Wen Yin, are you willing to marry me?"

The porridge in Wen Yin's mouth almost squirted out, she wiped her mouth and looked at Lu Yuan in surprise, and then suddenly said a little shyly: "I'm already your fiancΓ©e!" ”

Lu Yuan shook his head, "It's not Master's order, but your own decision, are you willing?" ”

Wen Yin looked at Lu Yuan's face, and actually fell into hesitation, now Lu Yuan has become that peerless genius again, and has become a dazzling sun, so is he still worthy of staying by his side?

Lu Yuan responded to Wen Yin's gaze, letting her see her sincerity.

Just as Wen Yin was about to answer, Gao Wen came over and said, "Brother Lu, do you have time now?" I have an important matter for you. ”

Lu Yuan didn't turn his head, he said lightly: "You wait a minute." ”

Wen Yin looked very concerned about the overall situation, "You go first, General Gao must have something very important to come to you!" ”

Lu Yuan pulled out a smile, "Okay then, remember to finish the porridge!" ”

After Lu Yuan and Gao Wen left, Wen Yin was stunned holding the meat porridge.

"What? One less person? Lu Yuan frowned and said, "Then have you looked for Zhao Yashi?" ”

Gao Wen nodded and said: "I found it, he looked very angry, thinking that we ran around by ourselves and got lost in the end, and now he is sending people to look around." But my soldiers know that they will never go out without disobeying orders, and even if they do, they will not lose only one person! ”

"This matter is indeed strange, ask Zhao Yashi to negotiate if you can let us go out and investigate it too."

But when they walked out of the warehouse, they found that everyone had blocked the exit, and Zhao Denggao looked weak and helpless in front of more than 200 people.

Gao Wen roared angrily: "What are you doing! You are soldiers, not bandits! Is it useful to embarrass him for a person to do things?! ”

Only then did everyone calm down and make way for Gao Wen and Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan said to Zhao Denggao: "Lord Zhao, one of our brothers is missing, everyone wants to go out and look for it by themselves, I hope you can understand." ”

Zhao Denggao wiped his sweat and said, "Understand! Understand! It's just that I really can't be the master, but I've already reported to the city lord, and he will come over soon, please don't be impatient, and wait. ”

After a while, Wen Yin also walked down and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Lu Yuan replied: "When we gathered in the morning, we found that a border guard brother was missing, we suspected that he was arrested, and we wanted to go out to find it ourselves, and now we are waiting for the city lord to make a decision." ”

As soon as Lu Yuan's words fell, the city lord of Wenlong walked over with a team of city defense troops around the corner.

Wen Long's face was very heavy, and the whole person looked very tired.

Zhao Denggao leaned up and said, "City Lord, they want to go out and find the person who ran around by themselves." ”

Wen Long nodded in understanding, he sighed and said, "I said that you guys don't run around!" But as long as the missing man is still in town, I'll help you find him. I can't satisfy your desire to find it yourself, and as agreed yesterday, it's time for you to leave! ”

Gao Wen's eyes were very firm, "He definitely didn't run around and get lost, that's why we have to find it ourselves!" If we can't find him, we won't leave Breeze City! ”

Wen Long narrowed his eyes, "What if, I just don't agree?" ”

"Then it depends on the strength to speak, father-in-law!"

Lu Yuan's last two words were said very seriously, as if he was swearing sovereignty, and the many brothers behind him also took a step forward in unison and supported Lu Yuan with their own actions.

The city defense army beside Wen Long immediately raised his weapon, Wen Long glanced at Wen Yin beside Lu Yuan, and suppressed the weapon of the city defense army with a smile.

"Have you ever thought that he was not captured, but escaped on his own?"

"Impossible! You're insulting us! Gao Wen roared angrily, desertion is the biggest contempt for a soldier.

Wen Long laughed, "Don't say too absolutely!" I can let you search the city freely, but I will not provide you with any more help, personnel, lodging, food, or even water. Don't starve to death in the city, and it takes manpower to clean up the corpses. ”

After saying that, Wen Long left with the city defense army.

Zhao Denggao made a gesture of please, "You have also heard the words of the city lord, you are free, but this place is no longer open to you, please!" ”

Lu Yuan and the others did not delay, and left the warehouse after cleaning up casually.

The door of the warehouse slammed shut behind Lu Yuan and the others, and they also began to discuss their plans for the future.

Now they were on their own, and they split the team into ten groups to search and inquire about the news throughout the city from different directions.

But they encountered difficulties not long after their departure, and many city residents were afraid of this group of soldiers who were full of battlefield atmosphere, and most of them were reluctant to deal with them without the presence of city officials.

In desperation, the five-member group of Xuantian Sect, which is relatively close to the people, can only ask the residents to get the news, and the other soldiers can only wander around and look for it.

Fortunately, after searching for a while, they finally made a major discovery by the river in the east of the city, and Lu Yuan and the others immediately rushed to the east of the city when they heard the news.

By the time they arrived, there were already many residents around the river.

Not long ago, someone salvaged a human corpse in the river, and this corpse was wearing the uniform of the border guards!

Lu Yuan asked Gao Wen, who rushed over first, "Is it the missing person?" ”

Gao Wen squatted on the ground and was still carefully examining the corpse, "It's him, although he has become a dry corpse, his face has not changed much." ”

After the examination, Gao Wen stood up and said, "Except for the two holes on the side of his neck, there are no other wounds on his body, he was sucked dry by something!" ”

Lu Yuan looked at the two holes, and he suddenly thought of a creature that he had often heard of before crossing but had never existed in the fairy world: vampires!

Gao Wen's face was very ugly, "I've never seen this kind of wound, those two holes are like being bitten out by teeth, but I haven't heard of any kind of demon that sucks people into dry corpses, it's too weird!" ”

Lu Yuan said: "I probably know what it is, and it is very likely that it will act again tonight, and then it is the best time for us to deal with it!" ”
