On this day, the three of them flew all the way, and saw a village in the distance, so they went down and walked, intending to stay in the village for one night.

Gradually approaching the village, Ye Fei felt that something was wrong. But after thinking about it, he couldn't think of anything wrong. Turning his head to look at Xuanzhuang, he found that Xuanzhuang had a solemn face, his eyes were fixed on the village, although he had not yet entered the combat state, he was already ready to go. Ye Fei didn't dare to be careless at the moment, and his eyes looked around silently.

Suddenly, Xuan Xin asked, "Why don't these people cook?"

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Xuan Xin's words were like a key, opening the door of Ye Fei's heart, and Ye Fei suddenly discovered that something was wrong. It was evening, and under normal circumstances, people who had worked all day had now returned to their homes and started to light a fire and cook. But there was not a trace of cooking smoke in the sky above the village in front, and it was extremely clean.

Ye Fei grabbed Xuanxin and turned his head to look at Xuanzhuang. Xuanzhuang also stopped and looked over. After thinking about it, Xuanzhuang took the big axe and held it in his hand, and while moving forward at a high speed, he loudly instructed Ye Fei: "You and Xuanxin are waiting here, don't come over if you don't see me beckoning." ”

Ye Fei responded, took out the iron sword and was silently on guard. Seeing this, Xuan Xin also took out his staff and stood behind Ye Fei. The two of them solemnly watched the figure of Xuanzhuang searching for the village looming.

Not long after, Xuanzhuang's figure appeared at the entrance of the village again and beckoned to the two of them. His head hung down, and for some reason, he looked a little low.

Ye Fei quickly ran to the entrance of the village with Xuanxin, and saw that the village was smooth and slippery, and there was not even a single mouse in sight, and the silence was terrible. Looking at Xuanzhuang's bloodshot eyes and gloomy face, I couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

"Senior brother, what's wrong?, what did you find?" Ye Fei couldn't help but ask. Xuan Xin's eyes also turned to Xuan Zhuang.

"Follow me. Xuanzhuang only highlighted three words, turned and walked behind a house in the far corner of the village.

When he came to the house, Xuanzhuang stopped and motioned for Ye Fei to take a look for himself. Ye Fei gave him a strange look, raised his feet and turned to the back of the house, and in the next second, an exclamation came from Ye Fei's mouth.

"Holy shit!?"

Behind the house is a small pond, which is a good place with beautiful scenery. But now, Ye Fei didn't pay attention to the surrounding scenery at all. All that was left of his eyes was the pond in front of him. Or rather, the dense corpses in the pond.

The corpses were soaked white, densely packed and layered all over the pond, and there were two or three hundred of them.

Ye Fei was in a fit of rage, and an exclamation came from behind him. Turning around, I saw Xuan Xin covering his mouth with his hands, his eyes were full of horror and sadness, and large tears were rolling in his eyes, ready to fall.

Seeing this, Ye Fei didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly hugged Xuan Xin, blocked her vision with his chest, and hugged her out of this pond full of corpses.

Almost just arrived at the place where the pond could not be seen on the front of the house, Xuan Xin couldn't help it anymore, he cried out, hugged Ye Fei tightly with both hands, grabbed the clothes behind Ye Fei tightly, and cried so heartbreakingly that even his body was trembling.

Ye Fei hugged Xuan Xin and couldn't stop comforting softly. Xuanzhuang also gently patted Xuanxin's back and sighed loudly. For a month, the three of them ate and lived together, fought together, laughed and played together, and established a deep relationship. Especially the youngest Xuan Xin, who is simple and coquettish, and has a cheerful temperament, although she is still Ye Fei's senior sister in name, but for Xuan Zhuang and Ye Fei, they usually treat her as a younger sister.

Now, Xuan Xin was so frightened by the corpses full of ponds that he trembled, and cried with his head covered, and both Xuanzhuang and Ye Fei felt distressed. Ye Fei looked at Xuanzhuang angrily, his eyes were full of reproach, blaming him for not stopping Xuanxin, allowing her to see such a tragic scene.

Xuan Xin smiled bitterly, and said a little gloomily: "On the path of cultivation, some things are unavoidable. We can't necessarily help her in everything. ”

Hearing this, Ye Fei was silent. Yes, there are some things that you always have to go through on the path of cultivation. Especially the Xuanxin's temperament, if you don't experience something, you will inevitably grow slower and slower. Thinking of this, Ye Fei looked at Xuanzhuang apologetically, he was wrong to blame Xuanzhuang. was about to open his mouth to apologize, but Xuanzhuang waved his hand and smiled innocently, pointed at Xuanxin, motioned him to take care of the point, and then turned around and left with a big axe.

Looking at Xuanzhuang's thick back, Ye Fei felt safe and warm for a while.

Xuanzhuang walked away, Ye Fei didn't ask him where he was going, he wasn't worried about Xuanzhuang at all, he was a person who was thick and fine, and with the cultivation of the Jindan period, there would be no danger. Compared with Xuanzhuang, Xuanxin needs more care and care. lowered his head and continued to comfort Xuan Xin, whispered some words of encouragement to her, slowly, Xuan Xin stopped crying, his eyes were red and bulging, and the pear blossoms on his face were raining, and Ye Fei, who was looking at it, was distressed.

Looking up at Ye Fei, Xuan Xin's lips moved, and he asked, "Senior brother, were those people killed? Why?"

Ye Fei helped her wipe away her tears, and said in a low and slow voice, "Senior sister, I don't know why they were killed. We can't turn back time, and we can't stop the bad guys from doing evil, but I believe that we can find the wicked people and avenge these innocent victimized villagers. Senior sister, would you like to help them?"

When Xuan Xin heard this, he wiped his tears, and finally sobbed twice, a little immature, but he said very firmly: "Well, junior brother, listen to you, let's go find the wicked and avenge them!"

Ye Fei looked at Xuan Xin's somewhat hateful eyes, and his heart was confused, not knowing whether it was right or wrong to draw a group of hatred on this blank paper. However, whether it is right or wrong, Xuan Xin has now regained his senses, although he still sobbed twice, but at least he has temporarily walked out of the whirlpool of crying.

The two waited for a while, and Xuanzhuang came back sullenly. Seeing that Xuan Xin was no longer crying, his dull face looked a lot more relieved. Ye Fei looked at him and waited quietly for him to speak.

Xuanzhuang thought for a while and said in a low voice: "I have checked around the village, and there is no sign of a large number of people and horses, it should not be mountain bandits." And looking at the various traces in the village, it seems that there is no fierce fighting, just some panicked footprints, which should be left by someone who escaped. So..."

"So, it's possible that it's a Demon Dao monk, right?" Ye Fei frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Senior brother, is it really a Demon Dao Cultivator?, how do you know?" asked Xuan Xin next to him with an anxious and resentful expression.

"There is no large number of people, which means that there are only a few people on the other side, or even one person. And there was no fighting, only signs of escape, indicating that the difference in strength between the two sides was so great that the victim had no intention of resisting and only wanted to escape. In my opinion, it can only be a demonic monk. Ye Fei calmly analyzed all the remaining clues.

"Why can't it be a demon beast?" Xuan Zhuang obviously already had an idea, but he still tortured Ye Fei.

"There was no blood, and there were no signs of biting on the corpse. Ye Fei didn't care, and still analyzed very calmly.

Xuanzhuang nodded with satisfaction, and said approvingly: "Yes, the senior brother's analysis is very correct, and I also think that it was the Demon Dao Monk's doing." It's just that, apart from these superficial clues, there is no obvious evidence, and we can't track the target. ”

Xuanzhuang frowned and thought as he paced back and forth a few steps.

"No, there are clues, it's just that we didn't look closely. After thinking for a while, Ye Fei looked at Xuanzhuang with blazing eyes.

"You mean..."

"There will definitely be clues on the corpses, but we need to recover all the corpses. ”

"Let's go, let's see. ”

As soon as they said and did, Ye Fei and Xuanzhuang turned around and walked quickly towards the pond. Xuan Xin bit his lip and followed with a pale face.

The three of them were all successful cultivators, and it only took a while for all the corpses to be salvaged, and they were neatly lined up. Of course, in the process of salvaging the body, Ye Fei and Xuanzhuang were the main forces, and Xuanxin just stood beside him with a pale face, crying silently. Fortunately, after such a long time, she has calmed down a bit and has not cried again.

Ye Fei counted, there were a total of two hundred and eighty-one deceased, men, women and children, and the youngest of them looked like he was four or five years old. Seeing this child's corpse, Ye Fei and Xuanzhuang's eyes were about to split, their clenched fists ached, and their nails almost pierced into the flesh. Xuan Xin sat on the ground even more, covering his mouth and sobbing, tears flowed like a mouthful.

Since it was already dark at this time, many details could not be seen clearly, so the three of them decided to carefully search for clues tomorrow, found a clean room, and did not have the heart to eat and sleep, so they sat silently on the ground and waited for dawn.
