Chapter 47: The Dilemma
Jia Rudao saw that Ye Dong calmed down, touched the cold sweat on his forehead, and continued to talk about the village slaughter incident.
"Since the incident four years ago, there have been similar things every year, all of them have been killed overnight in a village, and then recently, more than a dozen villages have been poisoned, and His Majesty ordered the official to solve the case within a month, but I don't have a clue at all. ”
"Now it's okay, with all the immortals to help, it's okay to take the murderer, and ...... then."
Na Jia seemed to be talking continuously, but Ye Dong didn't listen to it, and his thoughts returned to a day ago.
Ye Dong was practicing the pill in the cave mansion pill, and he was still refining the marrow cleansing pill, after all, the Xuanyuan Pill he needed to cultivate the condensation decision, there were still two materials that had not been gathered.
Yiding Pill had just finished, and Ye Dong was about to take a break, when a volume of letters suddenly appeared in front of him.
This is a special letter that is unique to the sect and is used to inform things, and it can be transmitted to any disciple within the sect at any time through the formation.
Ye Dong stretched out his hand and opened the letter suspiciously, he didn't know who would suddenly find him in a hurry, generally if there was no urgency, no one would use this method.
Unfolded, I saw a few big characters "Come to Tongtian Peak" with a simple flying sword drawn underneath, Ye Dong knew that this was the unique seal of the master, was it the head of the sect looking for me? Could it be the matter of the Immortal Ascension Trial?
However, Ye Dong didn't dare to delay, put away the letter, and immediately set off for Tongtian Peak.
The distance between each mountain peak of the Heavenly Spirit Sect is very long, and the disciples in the Qi cultivation period cannot fly with imperial weapons, so they can only rely on the spirit beast mounts prepared by each peak.
Generally speaking, every time an outer disciple rides, he needs to pay a spirit stone, so for ordinary outer disciples, they usually don't leave the mountain they are on if they have nothing to do, and they can't afford to consume it.
Of course, as an inner disciple, the care of the sect is always everywhere, that is, you can use the spirit beast mount for free.
Riding the spirit beast, he quickly arrived at Tongtian Peak, but as soon as he got off the back of the spirit beast, Ye Dong saw that from the other direction, a spirit beast carrying a graceful figure also landed on the square.
Seeing the person who came down from the back of the spirit beast, Ye Dong felt in his heart that his guess might really be right, the master's summons this time was related to the Immortal Ascension Trial, because the person who came down was none other than Liu Ying'er, the genius girl of the Vermilion Bird Peak.
That Liu Ying'er obviously saw Ye Dong as well, but she didn't greet Ye Dong, she just glanced at Ye Dong with a cold face, and then turned around and walked towards the main hall.
Ye Dong smiled slightly, he knew that he had offended this Liu Ying'er in the sect competition that time, but he didn't expect that he would hold a grudge.
Handing over the mount to the outer disciple who was in charge of management, Ye Dong also walked towards the main hall.
In the main hall, at this time, the head of Lingxuan Zhenren was sitting on it, and there was a person standing under it, naturally it was Lin Yue.
With Liu Ying'er and Ye Dong coming in, the top three in this sect competition gathered again.
That Lin Yue was originally closing his eyes to recuperate, but when he saw Liu Ying'er coming in, his eyes stayed on Liu Ying'er for a moment, and a very faint light flashed, and then he continued to close his eyes, as for Ye Dong, he was naturally directly ignored by him.
The head of the sect, Ling Xuan Zhenren, saw that the three of them had already arrived, so he opened his mouth and said:
"I asked the three of you to come over this time, because there is something I need you to do. Recently, at the foot of the mountain, there was a sudden occurrence of many villages being slaughtered overnight, and according to various indications, it should be the work of people in the cultivation realm. ”
"This happened once four years ago," he paused, glanced at Ye Dong, who was standing below, and continued.
But after that time, there was no more news, and I sent someone to investigate at the time, but there was no result, and now it is clear that he has committed the crime again. This happened around my Heavenly Spirit Sect, and we naturally can't stand idly by, so I asked the three of you to go down the mountain this time to investigate this matter, which can be regarded as an experience for you, you are the leader of the younger generation of my Heavenly Spirit Sect, I hope you can exercise well and prepare for the trial of ascending to immortals in four years. ”
"Yes," Ye Dong and the three of them said in unison.
"Yue'er, you will be responsible for everything when you go down the mountain this time, okay, you go down and prepare, and set off immediately. After saying that, Lingxuan Zhenren got up and left.
After Ye Dong listened to Lingxuan Zhenren, the whole person was distracted, and there was only one thought left in his heart, the murderer appeared again, he was finally able to take revenge, and the souls of the people in the entire Yejia Village needed an explanation.
So after Ye Dong and the three of them were ready, they went down the mountain to investigate the matter.
Among the three, Na Lin Yue was born in a Xiuzhen family since he was a child, and then he was directly accepted by Lingxuan Zhenren as a personal disciple, this is the first time he has entered the mortal world, and that Liu Yinger was also accepted by the first seat of Vermilion Bird Peak at a very young age, and she has no experience in mortal life.
Only Ye Dong has been living in Yejia Village until he is fourteen years old, so all kinds of things dealing with mortals along the way down the mountain are all done by Ye Dong.
On this day, the three of them discussed that the aimless search might be time-consuming, so Ye Dong proposed to go to the government for help, and there was a scene where the three of them asked to see Lingzhou Taishou Jia Rudao before.
......
In the hall at this time, Na Jia Rudao finally told the whole story.
None of the three spoke, according to Jia Yidao, this demon is elusive, and the locations of each crime are sometimes hundreds of miles apart, and it is very sudden, and it is still very difficult to take it down.
Na Jia seemed to see that the three of them did not speak, and said:
"The three immortals have come from afar, please go and rest first, there are immortals here, I think the demon will be caught sooner or later." ”
Ye Dong and the others naturally have no opinions, after all, they don't have a clue for the time being, and everything doesn't seem to have a result immediately, so they can only settle down first, and then make plans slowly.
This Lingzhou Mansion is very big, and each of the three of Ye Dong was assigned to an independent small courtyard, which was very elegantly arranged.
After sitting down in the room, Ye Dong fell into deep thought, he must find a way to catch this murderous demon.
However, its modus operandi is really hidden, and the time interval between each crime is also different, Yejia Village was destroyed four years ago, and there was no sound for three years in the middle, and this year suddenly more than a dozen villages were destroyed, it seems that this demon is practicing an evil sect.
However, Ye Dong was still not sure, "It seems that only by going to the scene to check can we have further clues." Thinking like this, Ye Dong began to cultivate, and he was going to check on those slaughtered villages tomorrow.
