"In recent days, disciples have disappeared one after another, but we have never been able to find the reason..."
"Maybe there are really evil cultivators at work..."
Another elder spoke up.
Starting from half a month ago, some strange things began to happen at Golden Knife Sect. Disciples disappeared one after another, strange noises were heard in the middle of the night, and claw marks appeared inexplicably on the walls...
Fortunately, it didn't happen very often, so the top brass of Golden Blade Sect suppressed the matter and launched an investigation in secret.
Unexpectedly, the demon slayer would come to the door before the culprit could be found out.
However, for the sake of face, the top brass of Golden Blade Sect have almost reached a consensus that this matter must not be leaked and must be resolved secretly.
"We, the Golden Sword Sect, have done a lot of things like slaying demons and killing demons. Is it possible that we still can't find the evil spirit?" Zhao Nan didn't believe in evil.
He remembered that today in front of the mountain gate, he was scared by Zhou You and made him move out of the way, and he felt extremely humiliated.
Everyone's eyes flickered for a moment, and they turned their attention to Dong Yi.
Dong Yi also noticed everyone's gazes, but did not express his position loudly and remained silent.
These days, he secretly searches for the culprit in the sect every night, but finds nothing.
The secret room fell into dead silence, and no one made a sound.
After a long time, Dong Yi suddenly said: "The Demon Slayer also led people to search the Golden Sword Gate today, but nothing was found."
"Could it be that our thinking is wrong? This incident is not something weird, but man-made."
As soon as this idea was uttered, the eyes of several elders lit up.
"The Sect Master's idea seems to be somewhat possible..."
"Indeed, maybe we took the wrong path from the beginning and ignored many clues."
"Tonight, we will start investigating from the disciples within the sect!"
Next, everyone discussed for a long time and finally decided on a plan for how to act tonight.
After talking for so long, Zhao Nan's mouth was dry and he was about to add more tea, but found that the teapot was empty.
"I'll add water."
After saying this, Zhao Nan took the teapot and walked out of the secret room.
Everyone didn't pay attention and continued to discuss some details.
Anyway, tonight, we must catch the real culprit who is causing trouble these days!
After a while.
But an elder muttered: "What's going on with Zhao Nan? It takes so long to go out and get some tea?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned for a moment.
Yes, it doesn’t take that long to add tea. Could something have happened?
"Old Chen, Old Zhao... you go out and take a look." Dong Yi thought something happened outside and needed Zhao Nan to handle it.
"Okay." The two elders responded and also walked out of the secret room.
After a while.
Not only did Zhao Nan not return, the two elders who walked out also did not return.
"what happened?"
"What happened outside?"
"Is it possible that someone is playing tricks on you?"
Dong Yi frowned tightly.
Three consecutive elders walked into the secret room and then disappeared, which made him feel vaguely uneasy.
Phew~
Suddenly, a strange dark wind blew in the secret room.
The flame of the oil lamp flickered, then was blown out.
Inside the secret room, it was dark, and you couldn't see your fingers.
A strange and sinister atmosphere began to spread.
"This is a secret room...how could there be wind..."
In the dark secret room, everyone couldn't help but feel chilled in their hearts and felt faintly uneasy.
"Everyone, be careful!"
Dong Yi knew that something must have happened outside.
Chi chi chi~
Tsk tsk tsk~!
"what sound?!"
"It's a bit like the sound of a snake swimming in the grass..."
"No...it's the sound of clothes rubbing against the ground!"
Chi chi chi~
Chi chi chi~
Tsk tsk tsk!
The sound is getting denser and louder, like the roar of thousands of venomous snakes, coming from all directions, making people's scalp numb.
"Pretend to be a ghost!!!"
Dong Yi shouted loudly, his true energy surged all over his body, and he slapped his palm towards the darkness ahead!
In his eyes, there was a white shadow flashing past.
Bang!
A figure flew out, wailing and screaming.
Dong Yi froze on the spot.
That was an elder!
However, it is obviously just a white shadow!!
“The door owner is crazy!!!”
"He is possessed by an evil spirit!!! Everyone, run away!!!!"
A frightened voice came from behind.
Dong Yi turned around and looked.
His eyes were filled with astonishment.
Isn't that the elder who was slapped away by his own palm?
laugh!
Several white shadows took advantage of his loss of concentration, turned into white horses, and tightly wrapped around Dong Yi's ankles.
Dong Yi's expression changed, he saw clearly what was wrapped around his feet, he seemed to understand something, and roared: "It's you!!!"
But his roar received no response.
The friction sound of "squeak" was heard continuously.
It was as if there was a horrifying and terrifying ghost in the darkness of the secret room, which was constantly eating away at human life, making a clicking sound.
For a time, the boundless fear of darkness overwhelmed Dong Yi, suffocating him.
...........
On the other side, in front of the mountain gate of Golden Knife Gate, there were two more figures sneaking up.
One is thin and the other is fat.
"Zhou You, you can do this alone, why are you dragging me along?"
Wu Liang muttered dissatisfiedly.
"My ability to perceive ghosts is not as good as yours." Zhou You admitted his shortcomings generously.
"Hehe. But don't tell me, this feeling like being a thief is really exciting!" Wu Liang's small mung bean eyes flashed with excitement.
Zhou You couldn't help but roll his eyes.
This damn fat man's brain circuit is so strange.
"Let's go. The resentful corpse must be hidden in the Golden Sword Gate. If we come and search it during the day, it will definitely be disturbed. Something will definitely happen tonight." Zhou You said calmly.
"No, there's something wrong with this Golden Sword Sect." Wu Liang whispered.
"What's wrong?" Zhou You stopped.
Wu Liang took out a small bottle, muttered something in his mouth, and then put a drop of transparent liquid on Zhou You's eyes.
"These are cow tears, coupled with Taoist Master's exclusive secret technique, it can allow you to see things that are invisible to the naked eye."
According to rumors, people can see some unclean things if they apply cow tears.
In fact, this rumor is somewhat wrong.
Cow's tears can make people see something unclean in your home, but it requires special means of spiritual cultivation to be effective.
Zhou You blinked, feeling his eyes were numb, and looked at the Golden Knife Gate again.
Under the dark night sky, wisps of gray-white gas seemed to linger over the Golden Knife Gate...
This gas is filled with extremely deep resentment, which makes people feel chilly.
"It seems like something must have happened to this Golden Sword Sect!~" Zhou You's tone became extremely heavy.
With that said, he galloped towards the depths of the Golden Knife Gate.
"Damn, why are you running so fast? Wait for me!" Wu Liang cursed and followed him.
