On the bell tower, the two looked at each other speechlessly.

After a period of silence, Luo Zheng took the lead and said, "Miss, let's get out of here first." ”

"And what about the townspeople?"

Luo Ruxue still can't rest assured that the townspeople below who have become corpse puppets are still relieved.

"I don't know if it's saved or not, the white fox woman's technique is a bit special. ”

"Without magic control, these corpse puppets won't walk around, I don't think it's better to set up a magic circle around now, isolate this place, and then find a way to rescue them later, and then come back to help them." ”

Listening to Luozheng's proposal, Luo Ruxue nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, that's fine. ”

The two agreed on this, and Luo Zheng left Luo Ruxue to wait in the bell tower, and flew away alone, setting up an isolation circle around the town.

After the circle was arranged, the kite returned to the bell tower, and left the town with Luo Ruxue on his back, the circle was activated, and the town disappeared, and it was a sparse forest as far as the eye could see.

The two of them packed up and continued westward.

Along the way, there was no longer the previous excitement, and the two had their own hearts and were silent.

At noon, the two saw wisps of cooking smoke from a distance, and knew that there was someone in front of them.

The two of them stopped in unison, watched from a distance, and did not rush to leave.

“... Sister Luo..."

Looking at the smoke in the distance, Luo Ruxue called in a low voice.

"Well, what's wrong, Miss?"

"We... Or don't live in the inn, if you can seal it with the road guide, seal it. ”

"It's better to act stealthily. ”

"Well, good. ”

Luo Zheng understands Luo Ruxue's worries, and she is actually the same as her.

All the townspeople in Shangza Town have been turned into corpse puppets, even the officials of the Yamen have not been spared, except for the people from the Shenlin Mansion, which is really suspicious.

I'm afraid that the people of the Shenlin Mansion secretly participated in the assassination, and the Guan Yilu Guide in the hands of the two of them is very likely to be used by the Shenlin Mansion to track the two.

Luo Zheng reached into the baggage and applied a small isolation circle on the Guan Pinglu guide to prevent someone from using the Guan Pinglu guide to spy on their position.

After getting ready, the two set off again and walked towards the big town store in front.

In the afternoon, the two arrived in town.

This big town store is called Youzhu Town, which is very prosperous, comparable to the county seat.

Entering the town, the two walked unhurriedly, looking for inns and restaurants.

Walking to the center of the town, you will see a clock tower standing in the middle, not far from the clock tower, with three gates side by side.

In the middle is the town yamen, on the left is the Shenlin Mansion, and on the right is the Purple Sword Pavilion Youzhu Annex.

Luo Ruxue was slightly stunned, then quickly lowered her head, and was about to leave with the zither dropped.

"Wait, Miss. ”

Luo Zheng suddenly stopped, and then walked to the three gates alone, as if he was observing, and wanted to ask passers-by about something, and after a long time, he turned back and pulled Luo Ruxue to find a restaurant.

After the two of them sat down in the private room of the restaurant, the dishes were all on the table, and no one disturbed them anymore, Luo Zheng explained.

"Miss, don't worry, those three compounds have been abandoned. ”

Luo Ruxue was shocked when she heard it.

"Scrapped?"

While drinking wine, Luo Zheng said: "I noticed an abnormality just now under the bell tower, and in the three courtyards, I was not angry, so I went forward to check and confirm that the perception of the divine sense was correct, and then I inquired about the passers-by. ”

"A few years ago, the resident owner of the Purple Sword Pavilion here had a violent conflict with the Shenlin Mansion and the town yamen, and there were countless casualties. ”

After that, all three stations moved to other parts of the town, and there was no contact with each other. ”

Luo Ruxue opened her mouth in surprise.

The local yamen represented the power of the imperial court.

Shenlin Mansion is directly under the Human Emperor and represents the power of the royal family.

And although the Purple Sword Pavilion is subordinate to the Shenlin Mansion, its own status is very special, and after being subordinate to the Shenlin Mansion, it has obtained a lot of privileges, and has gradually become the leader of the cultivation world, from a subordinate to a companion, comparable to the Shenlin Mansion.

Clashes between these three families are very rare, let alone fatalities and injuries.

"What's going on? And after that?"

Luo Ruxue asked anxiously.

Luo Zheng shook his head with a wine glass.

"Well, the reason was not asked, and the local residents didn't seem to dare to mention it. ”

"As for the aftermath, the three families did not leave, and there seems to be no contact, only when some necessary circumstances do the three families meet. ”

"How so..."

Luo Ruxue was a little dazed, and couldn't figure out how it could have become such a situation.

"It's okay anyway, it has nothing to do with us anyway, the situation here is a bit weird, it's better to leave as soon as possible to save trouble. ”

As he spoke, he drank the wine in his glass,

Luo Ruxue saw that Luo Zheng didn't particularly care about the strange situation in the town, so she didn't ask any more questions and ate silently.

After the two finished eating, they found an inn near the west gate of the town to stay.

This time, Luo Zheng only needed an upper room, so that Luo Ruxue could rest in the inner room, and she herself kept vigil in the outhouse.

"Miss, you rest first, I'm going out to do some business, and I'll set up an isolation circle in the house to ensure safety. ”

As he spoke, he set up a circle next to the bed in the inner room.

Luo Ruxue was a little puzzled, along the way, the two of them had never acted separately.

But looking at the appearance of the kite, there was no meaning to explain at all, so he was embarrassed to ask again, nodded silently, and then sat on the bed, lowered his head and fiddled with his fingers, looking quite aggrieved.

Luo Zheng looked at Luo Ruxue like this, but smiled helplessly, and did not explain or appease.

After the circle was arranged, Luo Ruxue let Luo Ruxue rest early, and then activated the circle and left the inn.

After a walk, Luo Zheng returned to the bell tower in the center of the town again, and saw that there was no one around, and then walked to the front of the Purple Sword Pavilion annex and climbed over the wall to enter.

......

The sky is getting brighter, and the kite has not yet returned.

Luo Ruxue sat in front of the window and waited all night, becoming more and more anxious, but with the magic circle of the kite falling, she couldn't leave the room at all.

It wasn't until dawn that a familiar figure appeared in Luo Ruxue's field of vision.

Luo Ruxue looked at the figure, her eyes widened, her whole body trembled, her hands trembled, and she subconsciously covered her mouth.

Under the sun, by the white wall, a bloody man leaned against the wall, moving his steps with difficulty, leaving a long trail of blood on the wall.

"Sister Luo!!"

Luo Ruxue trembled for a long time before she exclaimed.

On the side of the white wall, the blood-like kite seemed to hear Luo Ruxue's voice, slowly raised his head, looked up, and smiled with difficulty.

Luo Ruxue cried and beat the magic circle, wanting to go out, wanting to rush to Luozheng's side.

But the circle was unaffected.

In the distance, a puff of dust and smoke flew up, and the sound of dense horses' hooves was heard, and a group of men with long swords on their backs and purple robes hurriedly sat down their horses and came in the direction of the inn.

With just one glance, Luo Ruxue realized that this group of people was probably here to drop the kite.

"Sister, sister, team, run!"

Luo Ruxue thrashed the magic circle and shouted loudly, hoping that the kite outside could be heard.

Rakite slowly raised his head again, as if trying to smile.

But the sudden dust and smoke obscured Luo Ruxue's realization, and the group of purple-shirted people grabbed the reins and surrounded the bloodied kite.

......
