When they got to the bottom of the hole, they saw only a pair of severed ropes and a few spots of blood, and the rest were not found.

However, I was relieved to find out that these blood stains were goblin blood, not human blood.

They hurried to the city, and finally found them near the second gate.

Ning Meng nodded again and again, thinking in his heart: Fortunately, this year's Plum Blossom Poetry Festival is not very interesting.

That's why I distracted them, otherwise I wouldn't know where I was at this time.

"Thank you both for saving your life." Ning Meng clasped his hands into fists and said very sincerely.

Sima Chengzhen smiled and said, "It seems that a lot of things have happened to you along the way, it looks exciting." ”

Listening to Sima Chengzhen's ridicule, Ning Meng said with a sad face: "It is true that a lot of things have happened. ”

Immediately, Ning Meng told Sima Chengzhen and them what happened in the tunnel, and there was also the mysterious black-clothed organization.

Who knew that after listening to what Ning Meng said, Sima Chengzhen and Li Bai had a very big difference of opinion.

"You didn't get rid of all the evil monsters and let them go, what if they continue to do evil?"

Although Li Bai understood that those monsters were only controlled, they just let those monsters leave.

Those who control them will continue to control the monsters to do bad things.

Hearing Li Bai's words, Sima Chengzhen frowned.

Retorted: "These monsters are not bad, and on the contrary, they are kind-hearted, but they are controlled by the bad guys, so why bother to kill them?" ”

Sima Chengzhen continued: "What's more, we haven't even investigated the matter clearly now, so I don't know who is behind it?" Why do you need to dismantle these puppets one by one in front of the stage? ”

The two of you look at me, I look at you, no one refuses to retreat, and everyone insists on their own statement even more, which makes Ning Meng have a headache.

After a while, Li Bai gave up confronting Sima Chengzhen and only said: "In this case, let's investigate separately!" ”

Immediately, he left angrily.

Ning Meng looked in the direction of Li Bai's departure and didn't speak, in fact, from the bottom of her heart, she was more inclined to Sima Chengzhen's side.

Ning Meng also felt that the matter had not been investigated clearly, and of course he couldn't make a conclusion casually.

What's more, the condition of those goblins is what I have seen with my own eyes.

They are old and young, and they have no ability to do evil at all, and the most hateful thing is, of course, the forces behind them.

Now the top priority is to find out who the mysterious people who control them are?

Sima Chengzhen and Ning Meng returned to their residence, preparing to rest for the night, and then investigate the truth of the goods together in the city tomorrow.

Ning dreamed a lot that night, including Geng Liang, a new friend she met today.

Ning Meng could feel that Geng Liang had a lot of resentment towards the demon clan, and it was definitely not just those monsters who were making trouble in the crowd.

Maybe there is also his personal grudge in it.

And she felt that Sima Chengzhen knew no less about these situations than she did after half a day of investigation.

It was even possible to know something he didn't know, but he didn't seem willing to say more.

Ning Meng was a little distressed, and he could only follow Sima Chengzhen next, maybe he could find out some things in this way!

The next day, the two of them went out into the streets to investigate something.

The two of them walked around and came to a place where a crowd gathered.

Ning Meng knew that the fastest place where the news spread was in ancient times, one was the Qinglou, the second was the casino, and the third was the place where these people chatted after tea and dinner.

So she mingled with the crowd and listened to them chat.

"The day before yesterday, the daughter-in-law of Aunt Zhang's family gave birth to a male baby, which is really gratifying." An old man with squinting eyes who looked very kind said.

Another slightly younger uncle also congratulated with a smile: "Yes, the three generations of the Wang family have been passed down alone, and in this generation, Aunt Zhang only gave birth to a male baby, isn't she in a hurry to hold her grandson?" ”

"Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity, it's going to be four generations soon, and I heard that Aunt Zhang's son was arrested and sent to labor before his daughter-in-law gave birth."

The uncle sighed, shook his head, and felt very sorry in his heart.

The young man was industrious and capable, and if he hadn't been caught, he might have been able to add more incense to his wife.

"What kind of servitude? Is it the newly built one in the city called the Sky Tower? Another uncle asked curiously.

"No, no, I remember it seems to be called Tianxing Tower!"

The younger uncle corrected.

His news is very well-informed in the village, and he also knows some words, he has seen that building, and the plaque reads these three words.

Ning Meng muttered to himself: Tianxing Tower?

Just after Ning Meng pronounced these three words out of his voice, he immediately got the instructions of the task system.

[Mission Arrival: Climb to the Top of the Star Tower]

Ning Meng smiled in his heart: Isn't the clue coming?

Don't lie to me through the drama, although I haven't encountered this Qinglou casino myself, but the people are all information points before and after dinner.

So Ning Meng decided to go to this Heavenly Star Tower to explore the truth.

"No, we can't go there and investigate!"

Who knew that Sima Chengzhen, who heard Ning Meng's decision, was very resistant, and he did not agree to go to Tianxing Tower to investigate.

Ning Meng was very angry and puzzled.

She asked loudly, "Why can't you go?" Our clues have been investigated here, and as long as we go there and find out, it is possible to know the truth. ”

Ning Meng was furious, the truth was only one step away, but Sima Chengzhen was unwilling to take this step.

"Do you know who built this Heavenly Star Tower, and for whom?"

Sima Chengzhen was rarely angry, and the green tendons on his forehead exploded, as if if Ning Meng didn't agree, he would be able to break Ning Meng's legs and feet in front of him the next moment.

Ning Meng already had a guess in his heart, this was probably the building built for Sima Chengzhen's so-called Taoist friends!

"Who is it? Yang Guifei? Even if it was built for her, so what? Could it be that because it was built for her, we have to give up this clue and let the people in Kyoto live in fear every day? ”

Ning Meng also blamed Sima Chengzhen for not being able to carry it clearly.

Even though their relationship is somewhat unusual, it should not be so presumptuous.

This is very different from the view that he and Li Bai argued about on the matter before.

"You don't understand anything at all, in short, we just can't go there to investigate, we can't go and destroy there."

Sima Chengzhen grabbed Ning Meng's arm angrily, and then said.

Where is Ning Meng willing to listen? The relationship between the two is nothing more than friends, why does he demand this from himself?
