Baijin Town is located in the western part of the Longqing Empire, and its location is relatively remote.

A month ago, a shocking news came from Baijin Town, and 100,000 people in the entire town had disappeared out of thin air.

The Longqing Empire has sent elite troops to Baijin Town, but still no clues have been found.

There was no sign of a fight, and there was no sign of the crowd moving away en masse, for their property had not been touched at all, except for a pile of dead things, and not a single living thing had been left.

The whole thing is unbelievable, and it is by no means human. So the Longqing Empire commissioned the Jiuxiao faction, hoping to send someone to find out the reason.

At the invitation of the Dragon Qing Empire, the Nine Heavens Sect had already sent an elder to the sect before, and now it was once again sent to the young disciples in the form of a task, which was also a test for them.

The entrance to the town of Bai Jin has been cordoned off, and there are armor soldiers patrolling it.

In the sky, two figures landed on the ground, and at first glance they were handsome men and beautiful women, the men were high-spirited and smiling, and the women were cold and beautiful, with a phoenix hairpin on their heads, and a sword in their left hand.

It was Nong Qinyun and Feng Qingluan, who had just arrived at the entrance, and they were stopped by the guards.

"Who are you?" asked one of the soldiers.

Nong Qinyun said: "We are disciples of the Jiuxiao Sect, and we specially came to find out the reason. ”

At this time, a sergeant major in charge walked over and looked at Nong Qinyun and the others carefully. Then he said: "Just two young boys and girls who have not dried up, what proof do you two have?"

When Nong Qinyun heard this, he didn't laugh angrily, he walked up to the sergeant major and said with a smile: "Never be deceived by age, especially cultivators. ”

After saying that, the sergeant major suddenly felt a huge force on his body, and he didn't see Nong Qinyun make a move, and the armor on his upper body burst directly, revealing his bare upper body.

The sergeant major covered his chest with his hands, his face was full of horror, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva in his mouth, and said in a trembling voice: "Let go!"

Nong Qinyun and Feng Qingluan were able to enter smoothly, and the sergeant major continued: "Two real people, one real person has entered before, and we have placed him in a place to live, and now I have ordered someone to take you there?"

Nong Qinyun nodded, and the sergeant major ordered a soldier to follow.

Under the leadership of the soldiers, Nong Qinyun and Feng Qingluan entered Baijin Town, and found that the street was empty and deserted, the houses on both sides were neat, and the air seemed to be mixed with a faint smell of blood.

"Senior Sister Feng, have you seen anything?" Nong Qinyun suddenly asked.

Feng Qingluan frowned slightly, and said, "Everyone here should be dead." ”

Nong Qinyun nodded and said, "Coincidentally, I have the same opinion as you. ”

Feng Qingluan didn't speak again, her eyes looked around, and her face became more and more solemn.

After a short time, the accompanying soldiers led them to a relatively grand house, and under the eaves, a large wooden sign was engraved with the words "Mayor's Mansion".

There were several soldiers guarding the door, and after being introduced by the accompanying soldiers, Nong Qinyun and Feng Qingluan entered the mansion smoothly.

The two of them were led by the accompanying soldiers to a main hall, and at this time, in the center of the main hall stood a middle-aged man, with a short beard and armor, looking heroic and erect.

"General Yu, the two of you are real people from the Nine Heavens Sect. The accompanying soldier said after giving a military salute with one hand.

The general first beckoned the accompanying soldiers to retreat, and then looked at Nong Qinyun and Feng Qingluan, when his eyes fell on Nong Qinyun, he was first puzzled, then surprised, and then a little panicked, he wanted to say something, but he heard Nong Qinyun's voice in his ears: "Don't reveal my identity!"

Of course, it was the sound transmission technique, the general first nodded slightly towards Nong Qinyun, and then laughed: "The two real people have come all the way, it must have been hard, I am Shi Zhongchuan who is in charge of this army, if you have any requirements in the future, just tell me, I will definitely fully cooperate with you." ”

Feng Qingluan didn't like to speak, so naturally Nong Qinyun responded: "Thank you General Shi, there is something right now, an elder from this sect came before, can you tell him where he is?"

Shi Zhongchuan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly responded: "I really don't know this, the elders of your sect are also people who cultivate truth, they come and go without a trace, and their whereabouts are not easy to grasp, I have placed your sect in a side hall on the east side, and the two real people go there, maybe they can meet." ”

After listening, Nong Qinyun and Feng Qingluan said goodbye to Shi Zhongchuan and walked towards the side hall on the east side.

When the two of them came to the side hall, they saw an old man from a distance, not tall, with a long beard, but the robe was very familiar, and they confirmed that this person was the elder they were looking for.

The old man had already noticed Nong Qinyun and Feng Qingluan, and only when he saw them approaching did he say: "I didn't expect that there were two little babies who came here, but the strength is not bad, and the talent is excellent, it seems that the two of you must be personal disciples, right?"

Nong Qinyun and Feng Qingluan first bowed slightly to the old man, and then each introduced:

"Disciple Rising Sun Peak personally passed on disciple Nong Qinyun, see Uncle Mo!"

"Disciple Yupanfeng personally passed on disciple Feng Qingluan, see Uncle Mo!"

Judging from the titles of the two, this old man is the same generation as the head of the family and the masters of the peaks.

Before Nong Qinyun and his party came, they had already been told about the old man. His full name is Mo Qi, and he is an idle elder of the Nine Heavens Sect.

The so-called idle elders are all elders who have not served in the Nine Heavens Sect, however, their status is not ordinary, because they are at least the same generation as the head and peak master, and some are even higher than the head and peak master.

After 10,000 years of inheritance of the Jiuxiao Sect, there are a large number of idle elders, so in order to balance the strength of each peak, idle elders are not subordinate to any peak, regardless of all the affairs of the faction, but they are also dispatched by the head, but they also listen to the tune and do not listen to the announcement.

Among the idle elders, ten people will be re-elected every ten years to form the elder group, and the resolution of the elder group is even higher than that of the leader, so as long as the elder group agrees, even the head will be pulled down from the altar, which is the foundation of a big sect.

Mo Qi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, yes, old man, I have been away all the year round, but I didn't know that such a good seedling had appeared in the Jiuxiao Sect, the two of them were young, but they had already broken through to the early stage of reality, which was enough to laugh at all their peers." ”

After more than 20 days of hard cultivation, Nong Qinyun also broke through to the early stage of reality not long ago.

Nong Qinyun and Feng Qingluan had long been accustomed to all kinds of praise, and they had never shown any pride. Instead, he replied respectfully: "Uncle Mo has won the award!"

Seeing this, Mo Qi was even more satisfied, then stroked his beard and asked, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be two more people traveling with you, right?"

Nong Qinyun was silent for a moment and replied, "They will arrive later." "For the white feather butterfly, Nong Qinyun is naturally sure, but whether Ma Fangyu will arrive or not, it is difficult to say.

Mo Qi didn't continue to ask, but instead asked, "Have you discovered any mysteries along the way?"

Nong Qinyun glanced at Feng Qingluan, and then responded, "Disciple and Senior Sister Bai both believe that everyone in the town died in an instant overnight. ”

"Is there any evidence?" Mochi continued.

"First, the 100,000 people in Baijin Town are ordinary people, it is impossible to migrate away without a little rumor, plus there are countless livestock in the town, they can't also migrate, so the possibility of migration is ruled out; Now there is only one possibility, and that is that they are all dead, including all living animals, and as for where the corpses are, or have been reduced to powder, or are hiding somewhere unknown. Nong Qinyun talked eloquently.

Feng Qingluan took over and said, "On the way here, the disciple saw that the town was in good order, the houses were neat, and the doors and windows were closed, and there were gongs and drums on the street. So, we think that everybody is dying overnight. ”

After hearing this, Mo Qi applauded and said, "Wonderful, it seems that it is not useless for the faction to send you here, but you are only half right." ”

The two of them were puzzled and listened attentively.

Mo Qi said: "I don't blame you, it's because you don't know that there are blood demons in the world. ”

At the mention of the word Blood Demon, Mo Qi did not say anything more, his expression became solemn, and his eyes looked into the distance, looking thoughtful. It was clear that he didn't want to bring it up.
