"Yinluo, how's it going?"

When Meng Yunzhong saw me coming in, he got up and walked in front of me.

I shook my head, looking lost.

"If even Yun Niang is not diagnosed, Miss Yinluo's illness ......"

"It's okay, I can't find the cause, but at least I'm sure I'm fine. ”

Meng Yunzhong looked at me with concern, then turned to Fu Huan'en and said:

"Young Master Fu, thank you Meng here, then we will leave first. ”

"Meng Daxia doesn't have to be polite, and he won't be far away to return the favor. ”

But at this moment, Fu Yuanwai hurriedly walked into the hall, and his face changed greatly. Seeing that Meng Yunzhong and I hadn't left yet, he barely squeezed out a smile, but then hurriedly dealt with Huan En and said:

"Well, Lord Guo of the county is here, I heard that something happened in the town!

"What's the matter?" asked Fu Huan'en.

"Outside of the staff, since you still have something to do at home, then we will leave first. Meng Yunzhong greeted the staff again.

At this time, the Fu clerk looked a little flustered, and only responded roughly, and then called Shang Fu Huanen out of the hall. Meng Yunzhong and I were not in a hurry and stepped out of the threshold, but we happened to hear Fu Yuanwai deal with Huanen and say:

"Five children disappeared in the town last night, and this morning someone actually found the bodies on the mountain road out of the city! Those children's hearts were pulled out! The death was quite terrifying!"

I stopped suddenly. Originally, there was a lawsuit in this town, and I was not interested, but when I heard him say this, I vaguely felt that something was wrong. I turned my head to look at Meng Yunzhong, and I saw that his face was full of doubts, and he frowned slightly. However, he had no intention of staying, but urged me:

"Let's go. ”

That's right, after all, this is a foreign government of Fu Yuan, and Meng Yunzhong and I are both outsiders, even if we want to inquire, we shouldn't be at this time.

Walking out of the Yuanwai Mansion, for some reason, I found that the people along the street seemed a little anxious, and some three or five people were clustered together, whispering something. I vaguely felt that all of this was related to the mysterious deaths of those five children, and that it was strange that I had been in town for more than three or two days, and why there was no such vision until today, which inevitably led me to associate this matter with You Ruojun or Rouying. But to Rou Ying, a few young children didn't seem to be of much value, so I naturally turned my attention to You Ruojun, after all, she had only recovered from taking medicine last night.

"Yun Zhong ......"

After sorting out the doubts in my heart, I suddenly thought that I should listen to Meng Yunzhong's opinion, but the side face was his even tighter frown, and he didn't have a clue when he thought about it. Has this never happened before?

Seeing that he was silent, I thought about it again, he didn't know the identities of You Ruojun and Rou Wing, and he had never believed in ghosts and gods, so naturally he wouldn't assume in that direction, even if I told him, what could I do?

"Yun Zhong, don't think about it, the government will find out. Perhaps, it is just an ordinary case, and the rumors may not be credible. ”

He seemed to be listening to me, and seemed to be contemplating it wholeheartedly, only in response he turned his face sideways to look at me. This look always makes me a little uncomfortable, but I can't tell why.

"Yun Zhong...... I'd better go back to the cabin first...... Sister You'......"

Looking at his somewhat solemn expression, I couldn't comfort him, could I tell him that such a death was not something ordinary mortals could do? Although it had nothing to do with him, it seemed that this was the first time such a thing had happened in the town. There was too much surprise and panic everywhere, and he naturally felt puzzled.

"Okay, I'll send you back first. ”

"Yun Zhong, no need, I'll go back by myself, you better go and see Sister You, she has just recovered from a serious illness after all, ......"

Maybe my reason is a bit far-fetched, but at this moment, I really want to go alone to investigate the death of people on the mountain road, and if Meng Yunzhong goes with me, it will be inconvenient. But for some reason, I felt in a trance that he seemed to have some questions, but I couldn't tell what it was, maybe it was because of this bizarre death, even I vaguely felt that something was about to happen, and I was afraid that it would be inseparable from You Ruojun, who had just recovered.

Meng Yunzhong hesitated a little, but finally agreed, and he sent me to the entrance of the mountain road until he turned around and left.

As his figure faded away, I searched the mountain path all the way up. Strangely, as we went up the mountain path, we didn't find any blood. If the death of those five children was man-made, it would inevitably leave traces of violence, and there were not many forks in the road in this mountain, so how could there not be a single sign? Could it be that it was really as I expected, and it was not done by ordinary people?

After that, I searched almost the whole mountain, but I still found nothing, but there was an image in my mind that became clearer and clearer—soft wings. I remember hearing the old banyan tree spirit mention that some evil demons do have the method of eating the heart of a boy in order to improve their skills, so could it be that Rou Wing will also practice in this way? However, more questions have emerged one after another. If it was really Soft Wing's doing, then she had been in this town for a long time, why did she only find out about such a case now? Moreover, she was only dedicated to rescuing that monster, and she had always relied on eating the true essence of other spiritual creatures to increase her strength, and it seemed that she didn't need to kill mortals anymore. But my gut told me that it didn't seem to have anything to do with her, if it wasn't Wingwing's doing.

On this day, I did not go back to the wooden house on the top of the cliff, but returned to Zhuoyun Xiaozhu early. Yun Jin was extremely excited, and I played with it, but most importantly, I wanted it to help me find clues.

"Yunjin, I always feel that this matter is not so simple. As far as I know, there are no other demons with very strong spiritual power around Suining Town, but I can't believe that this thing was done by Soft Wing. If you say Yun Niang...... It's even more unlikely. Could it be that there are other demons sneaking into town recently? I don't know why, I'm always a little uneasy. ”

Yun Jin lay beside me, his head swinging slightly. For a moment, I looked at Yun Jin's eyes, mixed with speculation about Rou Wing, and fell into deep thought. Suddenly, a thought flashed through me, and I thought of someone again.

"Yunjin, I'll go out for a while. ”

Yun Jin slowly stood up, and it seemed to realize something.

I cut through the miasma of confusion and went straight to the abandoned orchard near the wooden house. I looked at the desolation and listened to the subtle fluctuations in the air around me.

"Yo...... Who am I, what? Our deal has a result?"

A thick smell gradually dispersed from behind me, and as soon as I turned my head, the fox demon was already behind me.

"I'm here to know something. Did you do the killing last night?"

"Hehe......" the fox demon smiled a little mockingly, "You are really joking, we nine-tailed demon foxes never have to rely on eating the hearts of mortals to practice." ”

"You really didn't do it?"

"Of course not. With a disdainful expression, the fox demon pursed his lips and turned his back to his face.

Listening to the fox demon's answer, the clue he had just found turned into a bubble again.

"Actually, this matter has nothing to do with you, so why should you pursue it?"

"Since it's not you, then my trip is in vain. ”

I turned, my thoughts tangled again.

"Instead of looking for answers from me, why don't you go to the clearing on the southeastern outskirts of town, you won't fail to find that place, will you?"

I looked back at her in some surprise, and she knew where the monster was entrenched.

"You don't have to be surprised, our nine-tailed demon fox is already good at space-time spirit arts, and even if I go there, no one will find out, so you don't have to worry about me and that snake demon all the way. That place is very demonic, and I don't know what kind of monster the snake demon is hiding. ”

"Hmph......," I smirked, "you can guess, but as a word of advice, don't go any further than there for no other reason." What she's hiding isn't an ordinary monster. ”

This seemingly superfluous reminder made me laugh at myself deeply. Was it because she had this seemingly beautiful appearance like Wingwings that I relented again, or was it because of the hesitant look she had shown in front of me, or the many secrets she knew?

"That place, I won't go if I am asked to go. Recently, the demonic energy there was heavier than in the forest under the Immortal Waterfall, and it made people tremble as soon as they entered. ”

"You mean, the monster's breath is getting stronger?"

My heart tightened, I don't know how much the monster's wounds have healed in the years since I left, is it that he is about to recover? If so, then the town will not be at peace.

"yes, are you still interested in that kind of thing? No, I thought you were here for the trade, to make me happy for nothing. ”

The image of the fox demon flickered, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into thin air.

"It seems that I have a lot of secrets here that you are interested in, you better complete the transaction as soon as possible, I will tell you all the secrets......"

The voice of the fox demon came from the empty distance, and I was lost in thought again.

"Yinluo ......"

I don't know how long it took, I was startled, and when I looked back in the direction of the wooden house, I saw Meng Yunzhong walking towards me.

"Yun Zhong...... Why are you here?"

After a series of thoughts, I didn't even notice the movement around me, and Meng Yunzhong's light skills were not weak and his steps were light, so I didn't even notice when he arrived, which couldn't help but make me a little suspicious.

"I couldn't be relieved that there was an accident on the mountain road last night, so I decided to come and see you. ”

He walked up to me and stopped, looking at me softly, but as I gazed, I read something else from his expression, and my mind was inevitably a little dazed.

"I ...... I'm fine. By the way, Sister You's ...... "I tried to change the subject, but he answered before me."

"She's all right. ”

"Oh...... That's good......"

"I have ordered the family to pack their belongings and send them to the cliff in a moment. ”

"Huh?"

Somewhat surprised, I looked up at him directly.

"I promised you that when you recover, I would move in with you. ”

He put his hands on my shoulders and looked at me very gently.

I barely squeezed out a smile, I was hoping that he would leave You Ruojun as soon as possible, but remembering what happened last night, I always felt a little uneasy in my heart. Moreover, if it is really as the fox demon said, the monster is only afraid that it will be restored, and if he is not removed, I don't know what kind of bloody storm will happen. Even though I have caused many killings, I have never wanted to see too many innocent victims, not to mention, since I have reunited with Soft Wing, it is inevitable that the monster will target me first, and when the time comes, it will inevitably bring danger to Meng Yunzhong.

"Yun Zhong ......"

When the words came to my lips, I still didn't say them. At this time, no matter what excuse he makes, it seems that something is wrong, not to mention, I don't want him to return to Mengjun Villa......

"I'm going to make your bed for you......"

I looked at him with a smile, trying to hide my concerns.
