Chapter Eighty-Three: The Huo Family's Strange Incident!
The next morning, the morning sun is rising!
Today is a big day for the martial artists of Jiang Lincheng, and the final of the annual Jiang Lin martial arts will kick off in a few hours.
And at this moment, in the martial arts arena of Jiang Linhuo's family, young figures stood with their heads held high, their eyes full of excitement and expectation.
Before these young figures, Huo Poshan, the elder of the Huo family, and several core elders of the family all gathered here.
"Yingxiao, why are there so many disciples who haven't arrived?" Huo Poshan glanced at the field, frowned, and turned to Huo Yingxiao, the third master of the Huo family, and asked.
Huo Yingxiao was also very puzzled, and immediately counted the number of people, but found that there were more than 20 people missing.
"Elder Taishang, I'll send someone to take a look now!"
After saying that, Huo Yingxiao beckoned to one of the guards next to him, motioning for him to go and see what was going on.
The guard didn't dare to slack off, and immediately responded, turned around and ran towards the inner courtyard.
And at this moment, many of the Huo family disciples in the field are also extremely puzzled, it is said that no one should be late for a day like today, but there are more than 20 children who have not yet come.
Huo Ting was also standing in the crowd, he turned to look at the vacancy in the field, his brows furrowed more and more.
"Except for Huo Fan, why are all the children who besieged Ye Nan in the Demon Valley late? Is this a coincidence? Or is it ......?"
Huo Ting couldn't help but think of the tragedy of the Ling family a few days ago, his eyelids jumped, and he had a faint sense of foreboding in his heart.
"Elder Taishang, something is wrong!!
At this moment, a voice resounded in the place, and everyone's faces changed.
"What's so flustered!" Huo Yingxiao saw that the person who shouted was the guard who had just left, his brows couldn't help frowning, and he scolded angrily.
"What's wrong?" Huo Poshan asked with a frown as he watched panting and ran up to the guards.
"Those young masters in the family are ...... It's gone!" The guard replied with a pale face and trembling at the moment.
"It's gone, what's going on?Tell me clearly!" Huo Poshan also had a hint of foreboding in his heart, and his words gradually became colder.
"I just entered the room of the extremely young master one after another, and found that there was no one inside, but there were some ashes on the bed!" the guard hurriedly said.
"Let's go, let's take a look!" Huo Poshan frowned a little deeper after hearing this, and immediately led everyone towards the inner courtyard.
The inner courtyard is extremely large, with rows of rooms neatly arranged in it, but it is the residence of the children of the family.
Huo Poshan immediately led everyone into the room of a missing child, and found that there was no mess in the room, but there were more ashes on the bed.
"There is no trace of a fight! No outsiders have ever entered!" Huo Poshan's eyes swept over all corners of the room, and finally his gaze rested on the ashes on the bed.
"Are there such ashes in other rooms?" Huo Poshan asked the guard first.
"Yes! There are ashes on the beds of the other young masters, too!" the guard replied.
Hearing this, Huo Poshan's eyes became more and more puzzled, but when he twisted a little ash and put it in front of his eyes to observe for a while, his face suddenly changed greatly.
"Impossible!!" Huo Poshan's hair stood on end, and he quickly walked out of the room at the moment, and once again got into the house of another missing child.
However, the ashes in this house were the same as before, and after Huo Poshan checked it, the soul of the dead was rising.
"No !!"
His old face slowly became hideous, and a monstrous murderous aura came out from all over his body.
"Elder Taishang, what the hell is going on?" Huo Yingxiao and the others couldn't help but ask in panic when they saw Huo Poshan's terrifying appearance.
Huo Poshan's eyes were cold and gloomy, and his dry palms holding the ashes trembled slightly: "This is the !! of ashes"
Ashes!
Everyone was stunned, if the beds in these rooms were full of ashes, wouldn't it mean that the missing children were silently burned!
But how is this possible!
The corners of Huo Fan's eyes were beating wildly at the moment, especially after he found out that these missing children had one thing in common, he was even more distracted:
"Grandpa, they have all besieged and killed Ye Nan in the Demon Valley!"
In the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion, a guard stood quietly, and in front of them was the Duanmu sisters.
Duanmu Min'er's eyes flickered a little, and the martial arts were about to start, but Ye Nan still didn't come to her, which couldn't help but make her a little anxious.
"Sister, you're fine, right?" Duanmu Qing couldn't help but have some doubts when she saw her sister like this.
"It's okay!" Duanmu Min'er replied lightly, but in her heart she felt that Ye Nan should not come.
"Stand on the !!"
At this moment, an angry shout diverted everyone's attention.
I saw that on the side of the many guards, the captain of the guard was full of anger and looked viciously at a path in the backyard.
On the path, there is a guard walking slowly at this moment, his expression is indifferent, sometimes looking at the luxurious buildings in the mansion, sometimes looking at the wonderful scenery in the courtyard, very leisurely.
The guard also heard the angry shouts at this moment, and couldn't help but stop at the moment, looking at the captain of the guard, with a puzzled look on his face: "Are you calling me?"
Listening to this guy's words, looking at the puzzled expression on his face, all the guards had contorted faces and almost laughed.
And the captain of the guard was pale-faced at the moment, and his forehead was bruised. He could never have imagined that there were guards hanging out in the backyard at this time. Especially the innocent expression of this guy, it made him feel like crazy:
"Get out of here!"
The captain of the guard knew that the Dao Martial Arts was about to start, and this was not the time to teach this guy a lesson, so he could only forcibly suppress his anger at the moment.
Listening to the captain's shouts, the guard scratched his head and walked slowly towards the place. But when everyone saw the direction in which he was standing, their faces twitched.
The guy didn't stand in the crowd of guards, but stood in ...... Duanmu Min'er's side.
"This idiot!" the captain of the guard could no longer bear it, and the fierce look on his face flickered:
"Which squad is he? His squad leader get out of here!"
There are many guards in the City Lord's Mansion, especially since there are many newcomers coming in every year, even he, the captain of the guard, can't know them all.
Hearing the words of the captain of the guard, many squad leaders stared at each other, but none of them stood up.
"Huh?" The captain of the guard looked pale, he believed that these team leaders didn't have the courage to lie to themselves at all, and now that they didn't come forward, it only meant that this guy was not a guard in the palace at all.
Thinking of this, the captain of the guard only felt the corners of his eyes jump wildly, and cold sweat broke out all over his body: "Miss be careful!
With a loud shout, his figure flashed, and the captain of the guard rushed straight towards the guard.
After the other guards reacted, their faces also changed drastically, and their swords were unsheathed, surrounding the guard.
"Stop!"
At this moment, Duanmu Min'er Yu waved his hand, but he stopped everyone.
"You guy, can't you come in openly?" Duanmu Min'er couldn't cry or laugh, especially this guy was dressed as a guard, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt nondescript.
Hearing this, the guard shrugged helplessly: "I don't want to either!" It's just that the guards of the City Lord's Mansion are too strict, and I'm a nobody, and if I want to see Miss Duanmu's face, it's even more difficult to go to the sky!"
Belch......
Hearing that this guard was chatting with Duanmu Min'er casually, all the guards stood on the spot.
Especially the captain of the guard, the long knife had already been swung, but at this moment he could only stop in mid-air, this depressed feeling almost made him vomit blood.
"Sister, who is he?" Duanmu Qing was also extremely surprised when he saw that this person knew his sister, and asked suspiciously.
Duanmu Min'er was just about to answer, but the guard took the lead in speaking: "Second Miss, long time no see!"
Long time no see?
A trace of doubt flashed in Duanmu Qing's beautiful eyes, she stared at this person's face for a long time, and still couldn't remember where she had seen it.
"Min'er!"
At this moment, a clear voice came, and three figures walked forward quickly.
Huangfu Zhiming has changed into a new set of brocade robes at this moment, and there is still a shallow gentle smile on his face, which makes people feel refreshed like a spring breeze at a glance.
Walking forward quickly, when Huangfu Zhiming saw a guard standing on Duanmu Min'er's side, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
However, this color disappeared in a flash, and then the gaze that looked at Duanmu Min'er was even hotter:
"Min'er, maybe after today, the two of us will be able to conclude a good relationship with Qin Jinzhi!"
"Hmph, let's talk about it after today!" Duanmu Min'er naturally knew what he meant, and at this moment, his pretty face was like frost, and he was unusually cold.
Huang Fu only smiled slightly when he saw this scene, and his expression was not the slightest abnormal.
"The hour has come!
The majestic voice suddenly resounded, and I saw a majestic figure stepping out from the main hall.
