Knowing that there were pursuers behind him, the carriage went all the way and carried Li Mu, Yi Fan and Zhang Di to the boundary of Diyuan County.

Li Mu asked someone in Diyuan County about the whereabouts of Yanyan Villa. Yanyan Villa is also very famous in Diyuan County, so Li Mu didn't spend too much effort and inquired, Yanyan Villa is in the northeast of Lingcheng in Diyuan County. And not only the location, but even the past and present life of Yanyan Villa have been inquired.

This is not because Li Mu has a heart, but because Yanyan Villa is too famous. As soon as Li Mu inquired about it, the person talked endlessly about Yanyan Villa. There is also an old case involved.

At one time, Yanyan Villa was a manor built by a family with a surname. Later, the Wen family fell into disarray, and the estate was sold to merchants who had returned from overseas. Since then, there has been a lot of construction in Yanyan Villa, but children have disappeared from time to time in Lingcheng. The Lingcheng government couldn't find out the reason for the investigation, which made the entire Lingcheng people panic.

Fortunately, the horse heart ape, who had the name of the god hunt at that time, heard the news, and after careful investigation, found that the missing child was hiding in Yanyan Villa. Under the constant pursuit of this divine hunt, the secrets hidden in Yanyan Villa were exposed.

It turned out that the merchant who had returned from overseas was actually a thief who sold babies. He used the famous mansion of Yanyan Villa as a cover, secretly abducted local children, hid in Yanyan Villa, and then waited for an opportunity to transport them out of Lizhou and sell them to other states.

When Ma Xin Ape led people to break through the gate of Yanyan Villa, Yanyan Villa, which was originally with exquisite layout and pleasant scenery, was changed to layout. In the past, the construction was to dig cellars and imprison kidnapped children. When he opened the cellar, even though he didn't know how many crime scenes he had seen, he was still shocked by the scene inside.

In the dark cellar, because of the poor facilities, coupled with the lack of food and clothing. Some of the children who were locked up in the cellars died of illness and starvation. And the rest of the children were kept with the carrion of the dead. They were so hungry that they could only gnaw on carrion, and they were so thirsty that they could only drink a mouthful of dirty water. This kind of scene is like being in the middle of a hungry ghost.

The child was rescued after all, and this incident, as a major case of the Criminal Department that year, became a fold on Chen Xiao's table. After Chen Xiao read it, Long Yan was furious and took the case. He ordered the trafficker to be paraded through the streets for three days, and then he was executed in public. On the day of the execution, the people of Lingcheng all applauded.

The culprit was punished as he deserved, and in the Great Decree, one article was changed, those who abducted and trafficked children were complicit in rebellion, Ling Chi, and punished the nine clans.

This incident caused quite a stir back then, and Yanyan Villa, as the hiding place of the murderer at that time, also gained notoriety. After the incident, Yanyan Villa has been in a semi-abandoned state.

Yanyan Villa is actually in an excellent location and covers a wide area, so some outsiders are interested in buying it. The government agreed, but when the stranger moved in, he said that he always saw many children playing in the courtyard at night, but when he got closer, he disappeared without a trace. Such a thing, which happened almost every night, frightened the servants and ladies of the vigil. A Zhuangzi people are hardly at peace.

The stranger peculiarly found a lot of demon hunters, and exorcism masters came to the house to do it, but it was useless. Later, he found the Heavenly Master of the Zhengyuan Sect. The Heavenly Master of the Immortal Wind Dao Bone told him that the original feng shui here was excellent, and the people who lived here were either rich or noble. However, because of the waterway built outside the city, a corner of the feng shui layout was broken. Therefore, it may cause disaster to the people who live in this house. If the owner's life is too light, I am afraid that he will have to disperse his family wealth to eliminate the disaster.

This was just a small catastrophe, but later a large construction project completely changed the feng shui of the Yang Mansion here. In particular, the cellar is excavated, and the yang qi is broken to attract the yin qi, so that a good yang house is like a yin house. In addition, there are many babies here who die early, and they are victimized by people, so the resentment is very great. Let this Zhuangzi completely become a murderous house.

This murderous mansion has been completed, and even he has no way to resolve it, so he can only let the strangers leave here as soon as possible. Otherwise, I am afraid that there is a danger of family ruin.

When the stranger heard this, he dared to stay longer, and immediately left here with his family. And these words also spread, and there was a lot of discussion in Lingcheng. Since then, Yanyan Villa has never been cared for anymore.

It wasn't until three years ago that a young man came, despite dissuasion, bought Yanyan Villa. Because this mountain villa has been designated as a murderous mansion by the Zhengyuan Sect Heavenly Master, and even the Heavenly Master himself cannot resolve it, the price sold by the government is extremely low.

After the young man bought Yanyan Villa, he didn't care whether it was a murderous house or not, and directly rebuilt it and lived in it. Later, there were many people coming and going in this Yanyan Villa, but the newly painted gate was closed all year round, full of a sense of mystery.

In the afternoon, Li Mu looked at Yanyan Villa from afar, but he didn't have this feeling.

Yanyan Villa is located in the northeast of Lingcheng, located in front of a hill, said to be a hill, in fact, it is not high, but the overall elevation of the northeast of this place. This gives Yanyan Villa a condescending feeling overlooking the whole city.

The three of them looked at each other from afar, Li Mu thought for a while and said, "Yi Fan, Zhang Di, this is my business, so I went to save it alone." ”

"How are you going alone?" Yi Fan said beside him.

Li Mu thought for a while and said, "You can't swagger in." Maybe we should wait until the evening. ”

"Are you sure you don't need to take care of it? Yi Fan complained.

Zhang Di on the side also said: "Yes, Li Mu, you also saved my life, if you need my help with anything, just say it." ”

Li Mu shook his head and said with a smile: "It's really not, we don't know anything about the terrain of Yanyan Villa, so it's better to explore it alone." ”

Yi Fan raised his eyebrows, "Are you sure you're good at light functions?" ”

When Li Mu heard this, he couldn't help but say, "Can you not say that?" he nodded his chest and said, "At least I'm much more durable." Alright, I'll go check it out first. After reading it, whether to save Shen Li or not, I will see the opportunity. You can't run away, and I need you to pick me up. ”

Seeing that Li Mu had made up his mind, Yi Fan knew that it was useless to persuade him. So he said, "Okay." We're out there to meet you. ”

Zhang Di looked at Li Mu and then at Yi Fan, he and Li Mu knew each other, and Yi Fan was meeting for the first time. But after a few days of getting along, everyone is young, and it can be regarded as a relationship. When Zhang Di was in Nanmu Village, he was isolated. Most of the people in the same village were also reluctant to join the son of this youkai. Now that he met two people who didn't care about the color of his eyes at all, Zhang Di was also very happy.

The three of them went to lunch, found an inn to rest, and waited for the sky to get dark. Li Mu just closed his eyes and recuperated his energy. And Yi Fan kept talking on the side. Li Mu rolled his eyes a little, he clapped his palms, and then said to Yi Fan, "Can you stop for a while?"

"I'm telling you. Don't be kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs. Yi Fan said.

"Yes, can I discuss something with you?" Li Mu pondered his tone.

Yi Fan said nonchalantly: "Say, I'll tell you if you can discuss." ”

So Li Mu said seriously: "I want to borrow your wind and sword to use." Li Mu's short sword was thrown back to the purple-clothed girl Chao Xi, and he had no suitable weapon. So there was the idea of borrowing a sword.

After Yi Fan heard this, he directly threw the wind and sword over, "It's your words, but it's okay." Anyway, I've already borrowed it once in Yacheng. There is borrowing and repaying, and it is not difficult to borrow again. But don't lose it. ”

Li Mu stretched out his hand to take the Wind Reverse Sword and said, "That's nature. ”

"But then again, you don't even have your own sword, so you're a little too stumbling. When you have time, go to the Red Clay Sword Furnace to have a look. Even if you don't have the qualifications to buy an inexplicable sword from the Heavenly Replenisher, you can still find a makeshift one. Yi Fan seemed to show Li Mu a way.

Li Mu thought for a while and said, "Wait when you're free." ”

And so it went on for a long time, and finally it got dark. The three of them had a hasty dinner, Li Mu looked up at the sky and said, "It's time to go." ”

So the three of them took their respective things, went out together, and walked towards Yanyan Villa.

About half a mile away from the villa, Li Mu stopped and said, "You guys find a place to hide here, and I'll touch it in a while." ”

Because he had already made a plan, Yi Fan didn't persuade him. Zhang Di just advised: "Be careful." We're waiting for you around here. "Okay, thank you. Li Mu thanked him and began to approach Yanyan Villa little by little.

Yi Fan looked at his back and said, "This guy doesn't seem to want to cause trouble to others. The people from the Grandmaster Hall and the Martial Academy are looking for him, so he doesn't want to bother us. ”

Zhang Di nodded and said in a low voice: "It seems that he also has a good background?" Anyway, I have heard the name Li Mu more than once from my master. ”

"What's the matter, this kid is just lucky. Of course, it can also be said that he was too unlucky. Yi Fan said.

Li Mu vaguely listened to the words coming from behind, and he tugged at the corners of his mouth slightly. Indeed, he was wanted and did not want to implicate others. This point really can't be hidden from Yi Fan. In his mind, he remembered what Yue Yefeng had said to him in front of the grave of a Sang Dao person, if you want to become stronger, strength and power are indispensable.

"Well, it seems like there's a suitable person. Li Mu smiled slightly, temporarily putting his thoughts away. He looked at the shadowy Yanyan Villa in front of him, and in the night, only a glimmer of light was revealed in the villa, and most of it was hidden in the darkness. This makes the whole villa exude a touch of tranquility and eerieness.

Li Mu followed the outer wall of Yanyan Villa, used the night to hide his whereabouts, and quietly touched it.
