Chapter 33: Your Jade Pendant Has Fallen

Yun Qing finally took the lead and interjected: "Before that monk left, did he tell you what the monster looked like?"

The city lord of Fenggao City lowered his eyebrows and tried his best to think for a while before he said, "He didn't see his face clearly, he only remembered that he was wearing a red dress."

Red clothes.

Jiang Yanlu thought about it, could it be a happy suit?

Xin Zhu suddenly asked: "You said in the letter that the last time that monster came to Fenggao City was a day ago, so we still have two more days to prepare, how can we find it?"

Jiang Yanlu replied casually: "I can only wait for it to come out by itself."

***

Night.

Jiang Yanlu was meditating and cultivating cross-legged on the bed, when Xin Zhu's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Senior sister, have you slept?"

After Jiang Yanlu breathed, he opened his eyes, "No, senior sister come in." ”

Xin Zhu pushed the door in.

She sat on the bed next to Jiang Yanlu, frowned, and said, "Senior sister, you said that this monster will not be the kind of monster that wanted to kidnap the little junior brother to marry him back then, right?"

"However, if the monster wants to get married, it only needs one woman, why does it have to take a woman away in Fenggao City every three days. And only the women in Fenggao City? ”

"For some reason, I always felt that there was something strange about it, but I couldn't tell what was wrong. Do you feel this way? ”

Jiang Yanlu nodded, lowered his voice and said, "I also feel that something is wrong." The monster shouldn't come tonight, so we'll go out of the house early tomorrow morning to see if there are any other clues. ”

Xin Zhu nodded: "Okay, then you rest early, I'll go back first."

Jiang Yanlu cultivated all night.

Early the next morning, she opened her eyes, and the aura in her eyes flashed.

Jiang Yanlu got up, twisted a trick to clear his body, and pushed the door out.

Outside the door stood the subordinates of the City Lord's Mansion, and he was about to knock on the door, when he saw Jiang Yanlu coming out of it.

The subordinate took a step back, lowered his head, and said respectfully, "The city lord invites you to go and have breakfast."

As soon as Jiang Yanlu arrived at the City Lord's Mansion yesterday, he used his spiritual sense to probe the entire mansion.

In the City Lord's Mansion, the one with the highest cultivation is the City Lord who has built the foundation of the Second Realm.

There are also some secret guards in the foundation building realm and qi cultivation realm in the mansion.

The other subordinates did not have aura fluctuations on their bodies, and they should be five spirit roots that could not be cultivated.

When Jiang Yanlu followed his subordinates to the flower hall, Qi Yue and the others were already sitting there.

After breakfast, the three of them went out of the house and went to the street together.

There were still not many people on the street, and the shop was closed, and after walking for half an hour, I only saw the steaming heat in a shop selling steamed buns.

Jiang Yanlu was just about to go over and ask about the situation.

I saw three people with burdens and panicked faces not far in front of me, walking in their direction.

Jiang Yanlu stepped forward quietly, and when he passed by them, his fingers twisted slightly.

The jade pendant hanging on the other party's waist fell off.

Jiang Yanlu picked up the jade pendant on the ground.

patted one of them on the shoulder, lifted the jade pendant in his hand, and said, "Fellow Daoist, your jade pendant has fallen." ”

The three turned their heads.

Through their demeanor, Jiang Yanlu guessed that the three of them were a family of three.

The two on the side are a middle-aged couple, and the younger woman in the middle should be their daughter.

Judging by their posture, they should be preparing to move out of Fenggao City.

The man took the jade pendant from Jiang Yanlu's hand and said gratefully, "Thank you, Daoyou." ”

After seeing Jiang Yanlu's appearance, his face changed.

Jiang Yanlu asked suspiciously: "This fellow Daoist, we have long heard that Fenggao City is bustling and prosperous, today is the first time to come to Fenggao City to play, why is it this time, the shop has not opened yet, and there are not many people on the street?"

Xu was because Jiang Yanlu returned his jade pendant, he stopped and explained:

"It's not a secret, there is a monster in Fenggao City, who specially kidnaps the beautiful girl who has not yet left the pavilion at night."

"The cultivators of the Heavenly Light Realm who have cultivated to a high level can't arrest them, and many people in the city are afraid that their daughters will be taken away by monsters, so they move their families away."

"We are also planning to leave Fenggao City today." The man sighed, "If it weren't for the life and safety of the little girl, who would want to leave their homeland." ”

After hearing him say this, the woman who was holding her daughter couldn't help but touch two tears.

Then he said: "A few Taoist friends, I see that you are kind-hearted and good-looking, I advise you, don't stay in Fenggao City for a long time, if there is nothing important, leave as soon as possible."

Jiang Yanlu asked a few more words: "Have the other families with women in the city left?" I heard that the city lord is already looking for a high-level monk to come to Fenggao City. ”

The man replied: "Basically, it's all gone, and the rest is the family that doesn't have a girl at home, and the city lord ......."

When he said the city lord, the man's tone paused, and his face was a little gloomy, "If he hadn't been suppressing this matter......"

The man sighed heavily halfway through speaking, as if he didn't think it made any sense, so he didn't want to say it anymore.

He only said: "It's not because of him that he is like this, when he is no longer the city lord of Fenggao City, when will we come back."

said goodbye to a family of three.

Jiang Yanlu and the three of them went to the boudoir where the woman disappeared recently.

When they arrived, Xiao Jue, Yun Qing and Guo Xuan were also here.

A few people didn't say much, and quietly checked the scene.

There were still traces of blood left by the monks on the ground.

There is a faint smell of fat powder in the room that has not yet dissipated.

Jiang Yanlu checked in the boudoir, but did not find any rouge gouache.

She frowned in confusion.

Xiao Jue and Yun Qing returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Jiang Yanlu and the others walked around the street a few more times, had lunch in a small wonton shop, and chatted with the stall owner by the way.

The stall owner is a man of many words.

Jiang Yanlu just made a start, and he poured his harvest in the past few years into Jiang Yanlu.

"It's true that the business has been a little worse in the past two months, but the city lord doesn't have time to take care of us, and the spirit stones we handed in are much less than before."

"Previously, we earned four thousand spirit stones a month, and we had to hand over at least one thousand and five to the city lord."

"Two months ago, the city lord's son got married, and we were forced to send congratulatory gifts."

"Oops my ravioli!"

The stall owner turned to his business and stopped chatting.

Tonight it is the lord of the city who entertains them personally.

Several people didn't drink alcohol, so the city lord replaced the wine with tea, asking them to subdue the monsters of Fenggao City as soon as possible, and restore peace to the people of Fenggao City.

Xiao Jue nodded: "Fenggao City is the shelter of our Taixuan Sword Sect, and it is naturally the obligation of our disciples of the Taixuan Sword Sect to slay demons and subdue demons."

Yun Qing also echoed softly: "The city lord doesn't have to worry too much, with my senior brother here, he will definitely be able to get rid of that monster."
