The one who came to report was an ordinary soldier of Li Zhiping's patrol, who used to be a leathersmith, and I heard that his skills were not bad.

His eyes were a little puzzled: "Is that woman's real name Luo Xin'er Yes, she is gone, I don't know what's going on, I watched her buy vegetables on the street, went home and started to live and cook, and when I went to look at it again after a while, I found that there was no movement in her house." I also went to her house to check, she didn't come to join her relatives, her relatives were gone, everything in the house was neat, the food was still steaming on the table, and the people were gone. ”

Xiang Yong asked a few more questions, but when he couldn't ask more details, he sent the soldier away.

"What do you think?" he motioned to the team.

"I haven't heard that strange people from the rivers and lakes have entered the city," Fan Xiaoyue was obviously thinking seriously, "but if it is the top master of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walking Gate, it is possible not to alarm the city defense troops to enter the city." ”

"So, you tend to think that the master of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk Gate has arrived and left contact information, Luo Xin'er obediently followed them after seeing it" Xiang Yong touched his chin, logically speaking, there was nothing wrong with Fan Xiaoyue's speculation. But he always had a gut feeling that this was not the truth.

Chen Beixuan sat lazily in a chair, his chest wrapped in gauze, and coughed: "Could it be that she found out that we were spying on her, so she hid?"

"There is such a possibility," Xiang Yong nodded, "Ye Liuli, what do you think?"

Although Ye Liuli usually doesn't like to talk, she has a strong intuition and can always cut through the mess quickly and hit the nail on the head.

Ye Liuli pondered for a moment, "Did she really leave today, what was she going to do when she left, why didn't she return to the sect immediately after she captured the treasure before?"

Chen Beixuan blinked his innocent eyes, indicating that he didn't understand what Ye Liuli was saying at all.

Li Zhiping frowned, obviously not thinking through the key.

Only Fan Xiaoyue's eyes lit up, and she seemed to have grasped the point.

Xiang Yong smiled slightly: "There was a very faint residual fluctuation of divine power on that person's body just now. He's been used by people. ”

Fan Xiaoyue blurted out: "Maybe he didn't lie, he just said what he thought he saw, but in fact he didn't really see it, but was hypnotized!"

"Let's go," Xiang Yong said, holding up his sword, "We'll go and have a look." ”

The group came to the small courtyard where Luo Xin'er lived, and the gate was closed.

Xiang Yong took the lead over the fence, stepped directly into the main hall, and began to examine it carefully.

The room was not as tidy as the cobbler had suggested, but it was disheveled, with many items of clothing turned out and thrown on the floor, and no food on the table.

"Look at the traces...... The people here have been gone for a day, and they have not just left. She must have left when we swore to leave the city. Xiang Yong came to a conclusion.

"Let's go to the bazaar and ask. Fan Xiaoyue proposed.

They went to the bazaar and walked along the stalls selling vegetables, and the people who were asked said that they did not remember a woman like that today.

On the way back to his residence, Xiang Yong told his teammates his analysis: "After Luo Xin'er killed Wang Jianlong and captured the treasure, she didn't immediately return to the Hundred Ghosts Night Gate, which has many possibilities. One of the biggest possibilities is that she feels that if she can keep this treasure for herself, her strength can grow by leaps and bounds. ”

"Think about it, what is the function of that treasure, is to control ghosts!

"Then the question arises: where will there be the most fresh souls in the territory of the empire"

"Here. ”

"So I suspect that she came to Ibaraki premeditated, and that she wasn't trapped in Ibaraki on the way to escape. ”

"If that's the case, it's very clear where she's going now. ”

Fan Xiaoyue gave the answer on his behalf: "Battlefield!"

Li Zhiping said sullenly, "If she can control ghosts, isn't it very easy to deal with us and have injuries, I'm afraid it will not be easy to take her down." ”

Chen Beixuan, a junior high school boy, spoke before Xiang Yong: "What are you afraid of, see me break ten thousand spells with one sword! Let her use a thousand spells, I will only break them with one sword!"

Xiang Yong smiled and said, "Brother Beixuan, do you understand the true meaning of 'one sword breaks ten thousand laws'?"

Chen Beixuan was a little dazed: "Ah, did I say it wrong?"

"One sword to break ten thousand spells does not mean that the other party has thousands of spells, and you can break them all with one sword. ”

"Rather, even if the other party has thousands of spells, you only need to kill the opponent with a sword before casting the spell, and it is enough. ”

"If you think that with a sword in your hand, you can fight spells, that's naïve. When I was playing the game, I didn't try to play the warrior and was abused by the law."

"So if we deal with Luo Xin'er, we must create an opportunity, kill with one blow, and we can't give her the opportunity to cast a spell. Otherwise, we may well be wiped out. If she has her hands free to cast spells, I suggest that everyone abandon the mission and return immediately. ”

After returning to his residence, Xiang Yong said, "Let's clean up, let's leave." Whether or not we complete the main quest, we can't make it back here. ”

He returned to his room, and was sorting out his gear, when a hurried footstep came to the door.

It's just that for some reason, the other party didn't push the door in, but lingered at the door.

Xiang Yong sketched Li Huamei's slender and hot figure in his mind, two straight long legs, high leather boots, a pretty face that should be disgusted and happy, and cute short hair.

"Come in. ”

"Squeak", the door was pushed open, and Li Huamei stood at the door with a complicated face.

Xiang Yong looked at her and didn't speak.

"You're leaving" for a long time before Li Huamei spoke. This was the first time she had spoken to Xiang Yong since Xiang Yong didn't take her to the battlefield.

"Yes. ”

Li Huamei lowered her head. She didn't say such childish words as "don't go, okay" and "stay with me". She was a widow, not an innocent girl. She knows very well that she can't keep someone she doesn't want to keep.

"I left something for you," Xiang Yong took the initiative to break the hard atmosphere and said with a smile, "Put it on the table in your room." A good exercise, if you practice well, you can increase a little self-preservation, and if you cultivate to a high level, you can also prolong your life and keep your youth forever. There is also a pamphlet dedicated to the struggle for power, where there is light and shadow, and under the great ideal, there is also a struggle for power and profit. Only by holding the power in your own hands can you ensure that you can create an ideal kingdom according to your ideas. ”

Li Huamei spoke, her voice inexplicably dry, "Thank you." You've all got wounds, stay a few more days. ”

"No, there are still things to deal with. Xiang Yong pretended to be relaxed.

He is not an ignorant teenager, he can read the affection in Li Huamei's eyes.

But he could only pretend not to understand.

"Can we meet again?"

"A glass of wine in the spring breeze of peach and plum, ten years of night rain in the rivers and lakes," Xiang Yong said with a smile, "The rivers and lakes are so big, Li Huamei, where can we meet one day." Goodbye!"

A smile bloomed on Li Huamei's pretty face, which was moving. "Well, goodbye!"
