A sign in the fence soaked with rain flying obliquely.

Yu Zhen held the umbrella between his shoulders and neck, his eyes looked ahead, and the pencil in his hand did not stop at all.

Since he was not sure what was valuable and what was useless, and it was easy to arouse suspicion after staying in place for a long time, he simply wrote down all the information in the bulletin board, and waited for the inn to meet Zhao Qianwu and Yu Ke to analyze it together.

It's just that until he closes his notes, Yu Zhen doesn't receive a hint from Torch about the progress of the exploration of the background of the event.

Obviously, the information just recorded did not have any particularly critical information, which made her a little disappointed.

Turning around to look for Yan Jing, he unexpectedly found that he had walked to the gate of the county government not far away, holding the pastries he had bought on the street before, and chatting with the messenger guarding the gate of the county office.

After a while, he turned back again, followed by the official who was carrying the snack box.

"The information on the bulletin board is not enough to promote the progress of the exploration of the background of the incident, I think the next step should be to explore the Sandu Buddha that can defend against evil spirits, and it can play this role in Jingjiang Town, if it is not false propaganda, it will inevitably involve other forces."

At present, the situation in Jingjiang Town is still chaotic in Yu Zhen's eyes, making people scratch their heads, and if they want to complete the second task, they must grasp the key clues of this incident.

"So I discussed it with the official in front of the county yamen, and asked him to take us into the yamen to clean the clerical room, if nothing else, there should be the information we want, at least we can know when the gods came out of Jingjiang Town!"

When Yu Zhen recorded the information, Yan Jing was not idle, raised his right hand, his five fingers swayed dexterously, and a few strands of shadow silk were faintly seen swaying on his fingertips, and the official who followed behind also made a gesture to invite in.

Skill from Pelot, Shadow Puppet!

This ability seems to be just a small skill in the Soul Mask, but it is actually very valued by Yan Jing, and it can work wonders if it is used well.

For example, now.

Regardless of the situation of the county officials in Jingjiang Town, as long as the yamen is operating normally, it is bound to leave all kinds of files and documents, and this is undoubtedly the fastest way to understand the situation in the town.

Although Yu Zhen didn't know how Yan Jing did it, he still seized this opportunity without hesitation.

With officials leading the way, the rest is much simpler.

One route into the official mansion through the main gate, now it is close to noon, most of the people in the official mansion are eating, occasionally meet a few servants or idle officials, the three of them don't even need to retreat, someone asked and said that it was ordered by the magistrate, let them go to sort out the file.

No one would go to the magistrate for confirmation for such a trivial matter.

In fact, they had already lost interest when they heard the words "dossier room".

In their opinion, there is nothing worth caring about in the file room of the county government, and they usually arrange an old scholar to take care of it, and no one goes there at all.

"Here it is, right here."

Walking to the door of a side house on the east side of the county office, the official stepped forward and knocked on the door, turned his head and said to Yan Jing.

Crunch~

The door opened, and standing inside was an old man with gray temples who looked to be over fifty years old, holding a pair of chopsticks in his hands, and looked at the three people standing outside the door in confusion.

Knowing that the county official had sent two people over to sort out the file, although he was puzzled about why he was looking for two outsiders, he didn't say much, and directly gave up his position and motioned for Yan Jing and Yu Zhen to enter the door.

The rest is much simpler.

Yan Jing lifted the control of him as soon as the official left, and instead changed the target to Lao Shuzuo, as for the former, it would take at least half an hour to recover from the control effect of the shadow puppet, which was enough for them to find what they wanted.

"We need to check the relevant information about the earth immortals, evil spirits, and the Three Buddhas in the town, and help us sort out such files."

Closing the door, the skill quietly took effect, and Yan Jing's gaze swept over the neatly arranged bookshelves in the room, giving an order.

With the help of the old bookkeeper who has managed this place for many years, all the files that the two of them wanted were quickly sorted out and placed on the desk next to them.

Light an oil lamp.

Yu Zhen quickly entered the state and began to flip through the pages, Yan Jing assisted from the side, while Lao Shuzuo continued to go to lunch.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

As time passed, the rain outside the window not only did not stop, but tended to expand.

The wind and rain were blowing outside, and even at noon, the house was Hunan, and the light and shadow reflected by the oil lamps swayed on the walls.

The sound of Lao Shuzuo fiddling with the dishes and chopsticks quickly stopped, it should have been finished lunch, Yan Jing leaned against the wall, facing the position of the door, and the Shuofeng Sword was placed on his side.

Looking at the various strange events that happened in Jingjiang Town recorded in the file, Yu Zhen moved the notes and thought about the information that might be hidden in these events......

What weird things flashed in her mind.

The pencil in writing suddenly stalled, and the lead core broke.

Yu Zhen straightened up, raised his hand and pressed it against the wall against the table, his face suddenly turned a little pale.

Somehow, she felt uneasy, and as an Ember Apostle who had struggled to survive many life-and-death dilemmas in a single incident, her will was undoubtedly tenacious enough.

However, just now, an indescribable sense of fear suddenly seeped into her body.

Some strange sounds mingled with the wind and rain poured into her ears.

"Is there a situation?"

Noticing Yu Zhen's unusual behavior, Yan Jing put down the file and raised his hand to grasp the hilt of Shuofeng's sword.

"Did you hear anything coming from inside the walls...... It was like some kind of shrill whisper. ”

Subconsciously stroking his forehead, Yu Zhen was also surprised by his emotional changes, and explained intermittently.

"Inside the wall?"

Yan Jing asked himself if his hearing was good, Yu Zhen's sudden inquiry surprised him, he didn't hear any strange sounds,

"I didn't hear, do you have some kind of prop that enhances your hearing?"

"No, I just ...... No, this state is not normal! ”

Eyes swept over the dark places in the room, in Yu Zhen's eyes, there seemed to be something entrenched in the dark corners, and the swaying shadows of the trees outside the door also changed into the form of monsters in a trance, and after a short silence, he suddenly raised his hand in front of him to form a magic seal, and groaned in his mouth,

"Hum Banzersa Battlements ......"

The obscure syllables sounded, and Yan Jing only felt that his spirits were lifted, and he was extremely clear.

What kind of spell is this?

Yan Jing saw Yu Zhen's move for the first time, and he was surprised but also curious about her ability.

It's just that Yu Zhen didn't have the heart to explain at this time, and suddenly reminded,

"Look at your status bar, is there any unusual change?"

"Anomalous changes?"

Yan Jing was stunned for half a second, and then quickly opened his personal panel.

As Yu Zhen said, there was an abnormal state called [Zhi Eclipse] in his status bar at some point, followed by a data, 97%!

"Our mental state is being disturbed by some external force, and my data has fallen below 95%, and I am hallucinating the surrounding scene that leans towards the dark side."

Yu Zhen, who had already sensed the danger of this negative state, looked solemn,

"My sigil can't dispel this negativity, I can feel it affecting my sanity and judgment of my surroundings."

Leaving the seat, Yu Zhen's gaze swept across the room, trying to find the place that was causing problems with their mental state, but before she could find out, Yan Jing on the side jumped out first.

Shuofeng sword unsheathed, Yan Jing rushed straight to the old scholar on the side of the room, jumped on the table, kicked away the dish that had not been put away, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at the latter's left eye.

Just now, Yan Jing noticed that the shadow puppet suddenly failed, and Lao Shuzuo got out of control!

However, just when Yan Jing thought that Lao Shuzuo was a hidden master, this guy faced the sharp tip of the sword that was close at hand, but his face was still calm and even a little stunned, and he didn't react to the approaching threat at all.

There is only one explanation.

He's under the control of another force!

"Be careful, there are other beings watching nearby."

Yan Jing sensed the surroundings, but there was no gain, and he was about to step forward to check Lao Shuzuo's body, when he heard Yu Zhen reminding behind him,

"Don't lean in, his face is contorting...... Something strange is entering his body! ”

His gaze turned to the old book again.

What Yan Jing saw was still a wrinkled, withered face.

In the next second, the old Shuzuo's facial features collapsed like a melting candle, and then under the manipulation of a strange energy from nowhere, a strange face shaped like a mouse was pieced together, and there were brown sharp teeth sticking out of his lips.

Cluck~squeak~

A ferocious momentum rose up.

Shu Zuo, who was old a few minutes ago, was actually extremely agile at this moment, his head swinging to the side and flashing the Shuofeng Sword, and his mouth full of disgusting black and yellow fangs gnawed at Yan Jing's sword-holding wrist.

Boom!

A punch slammed into Shuzuo's temple, and the entire table collapsed in an instant.

It was enough to kill an ordinary person instantly, but it didn't seem to have much effect on the monster, and even though the location of the blow was already a blur of flesh and blood, it still struggled frantically, trying to get rid of the mountain-heavy right foot on its back.

Easily subduing the monster, Yan Jing raised his eyes to look at Yu Zhen, who had reminded him earlier,

"How did you see him mutate?"

You must know that Lu Wujin's eyes can still detect the abnormal changes around him even when his spiritual vision skills are in a cold position, but Yan Jing didn't notice anything unusual just now.

"I think it's because of the Eclipse, this negative state makes me extremely sensitive to some terrifying scenes, and what's more troublesome is that in the process of your fight with it, the invasion of the Eclipse suddenly intensifies, and the existence of weird or evil affects us all the time."

Yu Zhen, who had already realized the problem, opened his mouth to explain, and halfway through his words, he saw Yan Jing suddenly looking around, and the expression on his face gradually became strange, and he couldn't help but add,

"Looks like you've experienced it."
