Shui Ling came to the cooking place. The stove was still hot, but the inside of the pot was clean and smoking was rising.

Gong Qianyu frowned and said, "It's like disappearing out of thin air."

"Hmm..." Shui Ling nodded, what happened?

Gong Qianyu whistled, and several people in colorful clothes appeared in front of him. They knelt there with their heads lowered.

"Did you notice anything strange?"

The leader raised his hands and said: "Reporting to the Dark Emperor, more than a dozen ships came to Pearl City. They took everyone here to Pearl City, and the food in the pot was scraped very clean."

Gong Qianyu asked indifferently: "Are you trying to grab food?"

"Yes, we have already searched for the food on the surface."

"Well... step back." Gong Qianyu nodded.

Those people disappeared in a flash. Shui Ling searched carefully but didn't find where they were.

Gong Qianyu smiled and said: "If they can be discovered, then they will only die."

"Why? This is too harsh." Shui Ling felt it was inhumane.

Gong Qianyu was silent, he did not explain.

Shui Ling sighed, this era is different from the era he lived in. Without such a strict system, it would be difficult to ensure his own safety.

"I'm just saying that I won't interfere with you."

Gong Qianyu knew Shui Ling would understand him, so he smiled slightly and said, "Now let's go to Pearl City to ask for someone."

"Well, you actually dare to bully me. You are robbing people and food. If you find that person, I will skin him." Shui Ling began to roll up his arms and sleeves.

Gong Qianyu laughed, took her hand and said, "I'll do this, dirty."

Shui Ling looked at his handsome smiling face and felt warm in her heart, "Okay, I'll just watch."

"Yeah." Gong Qianyu nodded.

The two of them took a boat directly to Pearl City. The gate was closed and no one patrolled the city walls.

Gong Qianyu went to the door and knocked. There was silence inside, and no one answered.

Shui Ling smiled, "It seems I have to fly in every time I enter Pearl City."

Gong Qianyu replied helplessly: "If I didn't want this door to be useful, I could destroy it directly."

Shui Ling pulled Gong Qianyu and said, "Forget it, why bother trying to get through the door? Let's go.

The two of them jumped from the city gate to the city hand in hand, but there was no one on the street.

Shui Ling raised her eyebrows and said, "Could it be that everyone in the city has been driven out?"

Gong Qianyu pondered for a moment, "Maybe, that person can do it."

"Who? City Lord?" Shui Ling asked.

Gong Qianyu shook his head, "The city lord is not a powerful person, they are just puppets."

"Huh? Is there someone more powerful? Who is it?" Shui Ling became curious.

Gong Qianyu looked around cautiously, "A person who is very powerful in illusions. The original city lord and others were all his subordinates. To be precise, they were puppets."

Shui Ling frowned and asked: "So powerful, have you seen him?"

Gong Qianyu shook his head, "No, I always feel that something is not right here."

"Huh?" Shui Ling looked around and didn't feel anything was wrong.

The little hamster in her arms moved and climbed onto her shoulder.

Shui Ling asked: "What are you doing here? Who is better at your illusion or his?"

The hamster moved its nose, as if it was smelling something, and pointed with its little paw.

Shui Ling looked in the direction of the county government office, and then she looked at Gong Qianyu.

Gong Qianyu said: "Is that person in the county government office?"

The two looked at each other and walked to the county government office in tacit agreement.

When we arrived at the gate of the county government office, the hamster pointed at the plaque and started chirping.

Shui Ling asked in confusion: "Is there anything up there?"

Gong Qianyu jumped up, grabbed the eaves and looked behind the plaque. He reached out and took out a crystal ball from inside.

When the crystal ball was taken out, it was like there were waves around it, rippling for a while to reveal different scenery.

People on the street looked around and left in a hurry, as if they were awakening from a dream.

Shui Ling looked around and asked in confusion: "So many people? Then why didn't we bump into each other when we walked over?"

Gong Qianyu didn't understand either. Logically speaking, the illusion created by the formation still had its own obstacles. For example, these pedestrians were like obstacles.

Just now, I and Shui Ling walked over and didn't bump into anyone. Did they change their route invisibly so that they wouldn't bump into anyone and make themselves think they were walking in a straight line?

Neither of them could figure out what was going on, so they turned their attention to the crystal ball.

Shui Ling took it and looked at it. She couldn't tell whether it was glass or real crystal.

She took Bai Xiaosheng out, and Bai Xiaosheng passed the message to her.

"This is that woman's thing. You can take it back and ask her. She should not have been captured in the cave."

Shui Ling replied: "Okay."

She put away the crystal ball first and looked at Gong Qianyu: "I have to go back and ask someone, here..."

Gong Qianyu knew that she was worried about him and said, "Don't worry about me, you can go back."

"But my people haven't been found yet." Shui Ling was also worried about them.

Gong Qianyu smiled and said: "It will be okay. If there is something big, the eyeliner will tell me."

"Okay, I'll go back first and come to you after asking for more information." Shui Ling believed in his ability.

"Okay." Gong Qianyu nodded.

Shui Ling hurried back to the beach and sailed back to Qionghai City, waiting for her to enter the cave and find Haiyan.

Haiyan was sitting on the sofa arranged by Shuiling in the basement, reading a book from Shuiling's space.

Shui Ling took out the crystal ball and asked, "Is this yours?"

Haiyan was stunned for a moment when she saw the crystal ball. She reached out to take it and said, "This is mine. It can emit a magnetic field and create illusions."

Shui Ling sat next to her and asked, "Then why don't you have this crystal ball in your hand?"

Haiyan smiled and said: "If this is passed down as a family heirloom, it will naturally not be in my hands."

"Uh..." Shui Ling forgot that she was the ancestor of the Tongshen clan here.

Haiyan asked: "Besides this, there is also a horn. When the horn is blown, it produces ultrasonic waves, which directly stimulates the brain."

Shui Ling frowned and said worriedly: "So this horn is the most important? Will it make people become puppets?"

Haiyan chuckled, "How can it be so powerful? It can make people temporarily forget what they did, and then using this crystal ball can change people's memories."

Shui Ling breathed a sigh of relief, "I see. No wonder those people on the street are in a trance."

It should be that Gong Qianyu changed the magnetic field when he took out the crystal ball, so those who were half awake forgot what they were going to do and hurried home.

She touched her chin, looking thoughtful, "So there is a descendant of yours in the city, and he is doing mischief with the heirloom you left behind."

Haiyan was a little embarrassed, "I'll go out with you and take a look. I'm not afraid of these things."
