074 Sudden Change
"So, even you don't know the origin of Lin Xiao?"
"Not exactly. ”
Lu Xingyao, who directly booked two adjacent rooms and was in the same room at this time, chatted with He Yan about Lin Xiao, who was more like an outsider to the two of them.
"The Jin Immortal Sect is considered an outlier in the Fulong Mountains. ”
"Alien?"
"Let's put it this way, although there is the suppression of the Xingyun Sect there, most of the sects still don't like to choose Taoguang Yanghui, because only when they are strong can they gain the right to speak, even if the Xingyun Sect has a great cause, they will not really ignore the demands of such forces. “
Lu Xingyao nodded to show that he understood.
"But the Jin Immortal Sect is different. This sect occupies a remote corner of Fulongling, of course, this is not necessarily without benefits, at least the area of the sect is not small. I've heard from my master that the overall level of the Jin Immortal Sect monks is very high, but they don't move around much, so I can't confirm his identity just by saying it himself. “
"His magic weapon is really good. Lu Xingyao added.
"I can only say that it is indeed a help......" He Yan yawned lazily, the cultivation of monks can completely replace sleep, but in this girl, in addition to the enthusiasm for food shown before, it seems that there is also a little need for normal sleep, which makes Lu Xingyao a little suspicious of who has been in contact with the immortal cultivation world for a longer time.
After chatting about this bit of gossip about the Jin Immortal Sect, He Yan directly wrapped herself in the quilt, as if she had issued an order to evict the guests.
"I said, aren't you worried about this mission?"
He Yan blinked, how to look at it a little playful.
In other words, compared to the previous environment where outsiders were present, the sense of alienation on her body almost disappeared completely. Lu Xingyao had seen her tone when she was serious before, and the gag between her and Qin Ye when she was running for her life was also mixed with anxiety, but now this state seems to be her most original face.
Lu Xingyao felt that he might have figured out a little bit of He Yan's temperament until now.
"So what does it matter, I'm out to avoid the limelight, it doesn't matter to me whether it's done or not. ”
As if thinking of something, she added, "But if you're bound to win, I'll be a thug, anyway, it's a much more interesting task than you think." ”
-------------------------------------------------------
The next day, a few of them left early.
Lin Xiao walked in front, and let the two girls walk behind.
"So you started yesterday at the infirmary?"
"After all, this is the only place where people who may have pre-symptoms look for it, and if I was lucky, I met the first one I found. ”
"Your tone is weirdly old-fashioned, and it always makes me forget your age. “
He Yan smiled and shook her head, although it involves cultivation, Lu Xingyao's height is a little taller than before, but no matter how you say it, the bone age is all there, He Yan is not very old, but she is more than a head taller than her, when the two of them walk together, just from the appearance of the appearance, Lu Xingyao's childishness is undoubtedly revealed.
If you just listen to the voice, it will make people feel like a conversation between peers.
"Don't worry about that little bit of detail. “
"Okay, okay, but speaking of which, this place is really remote enough. “
He Yan, this girl seems to be more pampered than she is used to, Lu Xingyao began to think about why the monks he met seemed to have a little family background, but the sect he was in was really poor.
It rained during the night.
The uneven ground on the ground has become puddles one after another.
Lu Xingyao's clothes were short and concise, so she didn't worry too much about this kind of problem, but Lin Xiao and He Yan's robes were not short, and she watched these two people wrap the hem of their clothes with their aura quite luxuriously.
"Maybe it's this kind of place that can give this behind-the-scenes man enough room to play?"
She voiced her guess.
They walked the same way yesterday, and thirty or forty meters further they could reach the man's house yesterday.
Hearing what Lu Xingyao said was about to arrive, He Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wait!"
Lin Xiao suddenly erected a fan and motioned for them to stop.
This inexplicable move made Lu Xingyao shift his attention from the small actions of the two of them to protect their clothes.
It's a remote place, and it's a very quiet state, but in this somewhat dirty environment, in addition to the smell of ordinary building materials and the smell of what seems to be rancid, there is also a strange and uncomfortable atmosphere.
And, the smell of blood brought by the wind that can never be ignored.
Lu Xingyao and Lin Xiao exchanged glances.
Something must have happened here.
Lin Xiao took the first step and rushed into the room from yesterday, the door was hidden and didn't even need to be deliberately kicked open, as the door opened, the smell of blood became stronger and stronger.
Lu Xingyao and He Yan stepped in after him.
What unfolded in front of them was a picture that they had never expected to appear when they left yesterday.
The man sat straight on a bench.
Blood covered most of the exposed skin, making it impossible to pinpoint where he was really injured. The bench had no backrest, but he was in a puppeteer-like position, his feet in a crooked position, and together with the legs of the bench, his body was supported, like a puppet smeared with blood.
Straight eyes stared at the position of the entrance, and the pool of blood on the ground was probably due to the just right height difference, forming a red line flowing in the direction of the door.
Even if it was the first time to see this person, He Yan, who did not have this contrast between life and death, unconsciously tensed her little face.
"What did the cult do?"
Such a murderous picture made her also receive a lot of impact.
But fortunately, stepping into the immortal cultivation realm always has to have a little psychological endurance, she took two steps in the direction of the corpse, and stood there for a moment.
"I can't figure out why such a scenario would be created against an ordinary person who doesn't actually have any ability to threaten the monk at all. ”
Lu Xingyao's face was also not good-looking.
They had thought that the black qi had been a little restrained after being expelled by Lin Xiao's bronze mirror, so they made the decision to rest first and then continue to look for clues, but this person who was hidden in the shadows made such a provocative choice.
"I had an idea to try. He Yan said.
