Lin Bai and Zhou Xi quietly disappeared into the crowd and walked towards the lanes surrounding the Wang family's residence in Beicheng.
"Master, we finally came here, why don't we go in and take a look?"
Zhou Xi was very confused. Lin Bai had already come here, why didn't he go in and take a look? Maybe he could find some clues.
Lin Bai smiled and said, "What's so interesting to see? You've never seen a monster kill someone? It's nothing more than tearing the body into pieces with its claws, blood flying everywhere, and internal organs splattering. What's so interesting to see in such a bloody scene?
?”
Zhou Xi smiled bitterly and said, "Then why did the master come to the Wang family in Beicheng?"
"I'm very curious... how did the demon clan kill tens of thousands of warriors overnight, and did it quietly without any movement, not even the warriors on the streets around the Wang family in Beicheng noticed it?
Is there anything strange?"
"This is strange."
"And it's not just the Wang family in Beicheng. The families and forces that were massacred by the demon clan in the past few days almost all died in the same way. In one night, the whole family was wiped out. There was no sound or movement. Even the guards standing at the door were dead.
Didn’t you hear the fighting in the house?”
"How can this be?"
"The demon clan massacred tens of thousands of people, and if no sound came out, it would be absolutely impossible!"
"Even if a warrior shouts for help, wouldn't it be enough to alarm the warriors dozens of miles around?"
"But these families that were wiped out didn't even hear a cry for help!"
Zhou Xi frowned: "Yeah, this is too strange, it's like everyone was killed in their sleep, but in a big family with tens of thousands of people, it's impossible for everyone to sleep, right? Zai Ze said we
For a Taoist warrior like this, let alone not sleeping for a day, even if he does not sleep for ten years, it will not have much impact on his practice and body."
Lin Bai nodded and said: "Yes, so I judge that the demon clan may have selected the forces to attack in advance, and then set up an extremely strong barrier around the house, killing people within the barrier, as long as the barrier is not broken
, then no sound from it can be heard!"
Lin Bai walked forward on his own, but Zhou Xi asked from behind: "Then what are we looking for in this alley?"
Lin Bai said: "If you want to cast a barrier that even Taoist level warriors can't break, you need at least one demon clan with Taiyi Dao Fruit, but I don't think the demon clan will send Taiyi Dao Fruit.
The demon clan is here to do this, so this barrier must be blessed by formations."
"As long as there is a formation, there must be formation flags or other clues around it."
"Understand how the demon clan kills people silently, and then we can find the demon clan. At least we can get a head start and deduce who is the next family to be slaughtered by the demon clan?"
Zhou Xi said with great joy: "Master's words make sense, and I will help you search for them."
The master and servant carefully searched the alleys around the Wang family's residence.
But after spending a full day searching around the Wang family's residence, we still didn't find any clues.
"Did I guess wrong?"
Lin Bai was a little frustrated, frowned secretly, and calmly sorted out all the clues in his heart.
"It's really strange. If a magic circle is deployed, even if the formation flag is taken away by the demon clan, there should still be some clues left, such as the spiritual power absorbed when the formation flag is running, or the placement of the formation flag.
of dents.”
"But we searched around the Wang family's residence and couldn't find any clues about the formation."
"The only clues I found were the clues used by the three major chambers of commerce to protect the Wang Family Residence!"
Zhou Xi also frowned and scratched his head, puzzled.
Lin Bai walked in front in silence, did not answer Zhou Xi, and kept his head in thought.
But just after Lin Bai took a few steps, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind and he stopped suddenly.
Fortunately, Zhou Xi stopped in a hurry, otherwise, he would have bumped into Lin Bai's back: "Master, what's wrong?"
Lin Bai looked sideways slightly, looking at the wet area on the wall of the alleyway. Many water droplets slid down the wall, fell into the corners, and gathered into a puddle of water in the low-lying area...
Lin Bai walked over and squatted next to the puddle of water, thinking silently.
Zhou Xi also squatted down, took a closer look, and said, "Master, this is just ordinary water."
Lin Bai said: "It has not rained in Huanglong City in the past few days, and all the ores used to forge Huanglong City are precious things. After ordinary rainwater and ordinary spiritual water come into contact with the ground, they will be diluted immediately. It will not
Leave no water on the ground!"
"Then this puddle of water is a little strange."
Lin Bai rolled up his spiritual power, carefully rolled up a drop of water, suspended it between his fingers, and judged it carefully.
This water is non-toxic and has no spiritual power, just like river water in the world.
"Zhou Xi, do you still remember that when we walked around the Wang family's residence, almost every lane wall was extremely moist, as if it had just been soaked in water!" Lin Bai asked slowly at this moment.
Zhou Xi thought about it carefully and nodded: "That's true, but we didn't care!"
"Maybe I know what's going on." Lin Bai stood up, his eyes bright, and he still had a subtle judgment in his heart.
Suddenly this time.
From the alleys in front of and behind Lin Bai and Zhou Xi, a group of warriors poured in. They looked at Lin Bai and Zhou Xi with ferocious faces and yelled: "It's them! It's them!"
"They are so sneaky, they must be monster spies."
"Catch them!"
"Get 'em!"
This group of warriors wore the uniforms of the escort armies of the three major chambers of commerce, allowing Lin Bai to recognize their origins.
Lin Bai's face darkened, but he did not take action. Zhou Xi hurriedly stepped forward and shouted: "You have misunderstood, we are not spies of the demon clan, we are not spies of the demon clan, my master is an inner disciple of the Eternal Demon Sect, come here
It’s to investigate the demon clan’s murderous methods!”
"Don't take action, don't take action, otherwise...otherwise...otherwise my master will kill you all!"
Hearing Zhou Xi's words, Lin Bai rolled his eyes speechlessly, as if he was an out-and-out murderer in Zhou Xi's mind!
"Huh? An inner disciple of the Eternal Demon Sect?" Upon hearing this title, the warriors who rushed towards Lin Bai and Zhou Xi were startled and slowed down one after another. Not long after, several warriors who came quickly from behind the crowd saw
Lin Bai and Zhou Xi shouted with joy, "It's Senior Brother Qingluo!"
"Everyone, please don't do anything. This is my senior brother Qingluo from the Eternal Demon Sect, and the owner of the Hidden Sword Thatched Cottage, one of the seven avenues of the Eternal Demon Sect!"
"If you don't listen to the advice and insist on coming forward, my senior brother Qingluo's sword is not in vain!"
The few people who came out were Liang Ke, Zhong Yuan and Zheng Fang, who had been separated from Lin Bai Zhou Xi for a few days, as well as several young talents from the three major chambers of commerce. They were all ordered to investigate the murderous methods of the monster clan.
