There was nothing unusual found in the old site of the Tantai family, and Mo Ghost was not disappointed, after all, this place was too blatant, if Tantai Liuli was still alive, there would be no arrangements here, let alone the demon here.

Mo Ghost integrated the information he had obtained in the intelligence tower, smoothed out all the places where Yin Qi had gathered from 100,000 years ago to the present, and patrolled along the Weiming Sea from the southwest junction position.

"This is Haixing City, about 30,000 years ago there was a big ghost under the moat, at that time secretly hunted a lot of monks, when the Shaking Light sent monks to capture, it escaped, and I haven't heard any news since then. ”

In the Xuan Ling Realm, ghost cultivators with high cultivation are called big ghosts among monks, and ghost cultivators who have no consciousness and are just wisps of soul are small ghosts.

"Is that the river?" Shen Kongming stood outside the city, pointing to that... Brook?

"According to the news I got, Haixing City was a big city before, but unfortunately the big clan in the city changed later, and it gradually fell lonely, and the moat was not maintained for many years, so it naturally became like this. Mo Ghost looked at the city gate, which was already somewhat dilapidated, and the structure of the entire city wall could be seen to be designed with care at the beginning.

"What happened 30,000 years ago, can anyone here still remember?" Qin Yifan walked forward with everyone, and the monk guarding the door was only in the Qi refining period.

"There may be a record in the City Lord's Mansion, let's go around the moat first, and then go over if there is a problem," Mo Ghost led a few people to the city gate, did not enter the city, and walked around this moat, which was obviously somewhat depleted.

"I didn't see anything," Qin Yifan squatted down and stretched out his hand to hold a handful of water.

"Well, the big ghost was before the decline of Haixing City, and now there are very few monks here, and the chance of the existence of ghost cultivation is even smaller. "Mo Ghost carefully perceived it, and there was no abnormality in the Yin Qi here.

"Alas, it's white again!" Shen Kongming picked up a stone and threw it in the stream.

"Isn't this what the investigation looks like?how can you find anything anywhere," Mo Ghost had already prepared, thinking about where to go next, "Let's go to the city first, and leave in the afternoon if we don't have anything to do." ”

"Let's go!" Shen Kongming stood up and took the lead towards the city gate.

The robes they wore may not be much in an ordinary town, but in this small place, it is still very eye-catching, and the monks guarding the gate have already seen a few people, but because they can't see through their cultivation, they don't dare to step forward because they have some scruples.

Mo Ghost and several people handed over their tokens in turn, with two big characters on them, which provoked the gatekeeper to weaken for a while.

After the five of them left, the two little qi refining monks guarding the door glanced at each other, with an interesting glint in their eyes, but before they could talk together, another monk walked in a hurry.

"Have any of the Monks come over lately?"

The person who came was not very old, and the two Qi Refining Cultivators couldn't see his cultivation, so he took the token he handed over and handed it back nervously.

"Yes, just five people went in. ”

"Five people, four men and one woman?" the monk who came over nodded when he saw them, and hurriedly asked, "In which direction did you go?"

"Follow the main road to the city!"

One of the monks pointed to the widest street in the city, which was still so lively that they could no longer be seen.

"Thank you!"

The visitor hurriedly thanked him, took his token, and walked briskly in the direction he was pointing.

"What's going on today? so many monks at ease!" the monk waited for him to enter, and excitedly pulled the sleeve of the monk next to him, his eyes slanted into the city.

"Who knows," the other monks also looked a little excited, turned their heads and happened to see the highest city lord's mansion in the city, and quickly calmed down, "Wait a minute, there are so many carefree monks, do we have to report to the city lord?"

"Yes, yes, I'm here to watch, you hurry up!" said the monk who was the first to speak, "Go and come back quickly!"

"Yes!"

······

A few people walked on the street, attracted by the aroma of wine next to them, and stood next to the shop waiting for the shopkeeper to make wine.

"Lin Qi?"

A voice came from behind, and when Mo Ghost looked back, he saw a male cultivator from the late stage of Jindan standing there, tentatively calling her name.

"It's me, you're it?"

"On the orders of Senior Bai, come and look for you, let's go out of the city first, and talk as we go. The monk who came over was a little anxious on his face, and handed over his token first, of course, not the one when he entered the city, but the token of the white senior's own secret guard.

"Okay," Bai senior's own secret guard token, Mo Ghost also has a piece here, all of which were forged by the seniors themselves, and it is difficult to imitate.

"What's wrong?" Shen Kongming saw that he was a little anxious and asked quietly.

"It's not convenient here, let's go out and talk about it. The guards looked left and right, and everyone's eyes were here, it was really not a good place to talk.

Shen Kongming felt everyone's scrutiny, "Then let's go quickly." ”

A bad premonition rose in Mo Ghost's heart, it must not be a trivial matter to make the dark guard so anxiously find him, and he unconsciously quickened his pace.

When the city lord got the news, it was long overdue, and there were already few people in Haixing City.

······

"What did you say? Those few fools acted privately and destroyed all the snake eggs?" Shen Kongming scratched his ears in the formation, "I heard me right, such a big matter, they didn't report it to the sect and acted privately?"

"Yes, I heard you," said the monk who came with a solemn face, "they planned to steal the snake eggs, but they were discovered by the rattlesnake halfway through, and in the process of fighting, a total of four snake eggs were all destroyed, and there were small snakes that had already formed inside, but unfortunately they could not be saved." ”

"What about the rattlesnake?" Mo Ghost chuckled in his heart, and his body unconsciously took half a step forward.

"The rattlesnake was stimulated, and awakened part of the bloodline, and cooperated with the red eagle to kill all the past secret guards of the hall, and only one monk stationed in Beiling City survived, and waited for a day and a night without movement, and then the secret guard who reported it sent someone to check. ”

"By the time our men passed, there were no rattlesnakes in the snake cave, only eggshells and formed small snake carcasses. Our people have found nine corpses in the territory of the snake cave and the red eagle one after another, and they have been impregnated with snake venom and cannot see their original appearance, but judging from the analysis of bone age, they should be nine secret guards. The monk who came over said in a deep voice.

"Where's the rattlesnake?" asked Mo Ghost word by word.

"Stimulated, awakened the bloodline, almost went berserk, and after killing the dark guard, he fled in the demon beast forest, and the five monks who passed by were all killed, and their whereabouts are still unknown. The monk who came over looked at Mo Ghost, "Senior Bai asked me to call you over." ”

Mo Ghost only felt a stagnation in his heart, and lowered his head and lowered his eyes.

"What do you mean, why did you call her over? Is it that group of secret guards in the hall are bold and self-assertive, what is the matter with Guan Linqi?" Shen Kongming stood in front of her, looking at the secret guard suspiciously.

"I'm just acting on orders, and I hope that fellow Daoists won't embarrass me. "The secret guards who came over knew the identities of several people, and they didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

"Whoever embarrasses you, I just want to ask clearly," Shen Kongming looked at him who dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, and suddenly became angry, "If you don't explain it today, why do you want her to go over, no one wants to take her away!"

"Shen Kongming!" Mo Ghost grabbed him, "I'll go back with you." ”

When she heard that the secret guards were secretly acting and wanted to monopolize the snake eggs, she already regretted it, she shouldn't have let them get the news and deal with it herself.

She obviously had a premonition that these secret guards were not right, and even the shadow jade was ready, but because she wanted to teach them a lesson, she didn't forcibly report it to the local secret guards, who expected it to become such a consequence, hurting many innocent monks.

And now, the rattlesnake is still fleeing, and every monk in the Demon Beast Forest is in danger, and she does have a responsibility.

"We didn't stop it in advance, it's our fault, but in the final analysis, the essence of this matter is the greed of the secret guards!" Shen Kongming looked at her calm and unancient eyes, and understood the meaning in an instant, "Then let's go back too,"

Senior Bai only ordered Lin Qi to go back alone. The secret guard who came to pick her up did not explicitly refuse, but said such a sentence.

"What's the matter, just call her, we can't join in the fun?" Shen Kongming's chin raised slightly.

"You guys stay here," Mo Ghost took out a jade slip from the storage bag, "This is the information I have sorted out, there have been shadowy places along the Weiming Sea in the past 100,000 years, you follow here, place by place, carefully investigate, and when I finish dealing with the matter over there, I will come to you." ”

Mo Ghost patted Shen Kongming's shoulder, signaling that he didn't have to worry, threw Yu Jian into his arms, and came to the secret guard who came over, "Let's go, hurry up, we should be able to arrive early tomorrow morning." ”

Shen Kongming wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Huo Zijun, and the remaining four people watched her leave.

"Why don't we follow? Senior Bai is obviously asking the teacher to ask for the guilt, but strictly speaking, we haven't done anything wrong in this matter. Shen Kongming pulled his sleeve and looked at Huo Zijun puzzled.

"Who is Senior Bai?" Huo Zijun looked at him coldly.

"Elder Intelligence," Shen Kongming frowned, the two of them were familiar with each other in the inner gate of Xiaoyao, who was Senior Bai and still need to ask?" "Don't you know, why are you asking this?"

"Then why did he just call Lin Qi?" Huo Zijun saw that he hadn't understood yet, and hugged his arms.

"High hopes," Zhen Hao suddenly spoke, "My master has the strictest requirements for me, because I am her apprentice, Lin Qi should also be highly regarded by Bai seniors, and... The Secret Guard is at fault, but it doesn't conflict with the fact that we can avoid this incident. ”

"That's right," Huo Zijun nodded, "Senior Bai does things, don't you know yet?, it's never useless, Lin Qi is wrong this time, just calling her back alone proves that she didn't give up completely, otherwise he will directly send someone to solve this matter, even more simply, why bother to call her over?"

Shen Kongming was not stupid, and when he heard him say this, he also understood, "Scared me, I thought that I was going to count this matter on Lin Qi's head and be a scapegoat." ”

"Don't think about it, look at the jade slip she left, what we have to do is to continue the investigation and wait for her to solve the matter before coming back. Huo Zijun pointed to the jade slip in Shen Kongming's hand, "Without Lin Qi, we have to be more careful, we would rather slow down than let go of any news." ”

"Good. ”

······

The secret guard sent by Senior Bai took Mo Ghost and Ghost to Beiling City at the fastest speed, and when he was about to arrive, he heard the roars of many demon beasts on the periphery of the Demon Beast Forest.

"In this demon beast forest, the rattlesnake has almost walked all over, and the demon beasts have also killed a lot, many of them died directly in hibernation, but fortunately it is winter now, and there are not many monks who go in, otherwise the consequences will be more serious. "The Dark Guard carefully controls the flying magic weapon.

"Have you sent a monk to the end?" Mo Ghost stood on the side of the boat, looking at the first-order demon beast that was a little flustered, and had already run out of the range of the demon beast forest.

"Of course, the entire demon beast forest is about to be rummaged over, but I haven't even seen the shadow of the snake, and some people are already wondering if they have left this area, which is even more troublesome. The Dark Guard sighed, "Whether they escape or not, the hardest thing to do is these ordinary monks. ”

Mo Ghost didn't answer, and the hands under his sleeves were clenched tightly.

When she arrived at Xiaoyao Station, she came directly to the study where Senior Bai was, knocked on the door, and walked over to see Bai Xiaosheng's calm face.

"White senior. ”

Bai Xiaosheng raised his eyes and glanced at her coldly, without answering immediately, the whole room was suddenly silent, and he didn't dare to take a breath, and after a while, he said leisurely, "Do you know what's wrong?"

"The disciple knows his mistake, I could have stopped this matter..." Mo Ghost wanted to explain again, but he didn't know how to open his mouth when the words came to his lips.

"To be honest, I'm very disappointed in you this time," Bai Xiaosheng put down the jade slip in his hand, "You have countless ways to punish them, but you chose the stupidest one," Bai Xiaosheng said mercilessly, "You even left the Shadow Jade as evidence to prove that you had a hunch, but for the sake of a momentary mood, you still didn't say anything." ”

"Mo ghost, do you know that as a controller of intelligence, what you must do is to treat any information you get calmly, and you must not be rash, once it is mixed with personal emotions, it is not suitable to stay in this position anymore. Bai Xiaosheng's tone was a little heavy, and he looked at Mo Ghost coldly.

"Disciple knows his mistake," Mo Ghost lowered his head, his tongue pressed tightly against his lips.

When she found out that something was wrong with these secret guards, she didn't choose to point them out directly, but let them develop, because she knew that with the character of these people, they would definitely ask for their own hardships, but she really didn't expect that these people were even more bold than she imagined, causing a big disaster and hurting the innocent.

"Thinking about this matter, you are not the direct culprit, I can give you one last chance," Bai Xiaosheng threw the jade slip in his hand to her, "Find the rattlesnake back, life or death!"
