After being "ravaged", Qin Shaoyou became a lot more honest.
The precondition for the two people to suspend fighting is that during this downhill training, everything must be subject to Bai Xiyao's arrangements.
Qin Shaoyou didn't have any objections to this.
According to the instructions on the mission, they were looking for the three missing disciples of the outer sect, not the casual cultivators.
But if you want to get to the bottom of this matter, you have to start with the missing casual cultivator.
Ziyunfang is also one of the eighteen branches under the Yuanling Sect, and is located near Shang'an City.
Shang'an City is a mortal city located in Yuan Kingdom with a population of approximately 200,000.
Half a day later, the two finally arrived at Ziyunfang.
There are obviously fewer casual cultivators here than what Qin Shaoyou saw in Taolinfang before.
Perhaps it is because there have been many casual cultivators disappearing before, so many casual cultivators have fled this place.
"Xu Chen, a disciple of the outer sect, has met the senior brothers and sisters of the inner sect!"
As soon as they arrived, the owner of Ziyunfang went out to greet them.
In recent days, casual cultivators have continued to disappear, and disciples sent from other sects have also disappeared one after another. Xu Chen has become as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Finally, today these two inner sect disciples came.
Bai Xiyao looked around and asked:
"Junior Brother Xu, can you tell us more about the situation here?"
She also got straight to the point and got straight to the point.
Xu Chen nodded repeatedly.
"Senior sister, this is a long story. How about we sit inside and talk about it?"
"No need, let's leave as soon as we finish talking."
Bai Xiyao refused.
When Xu Chen saw this, he couldn't force it anymore. He thought about it and said slowly.
"Um..."
"That's right."
"Half a year ago, traces of monsters appeared outside Shang'an City. Many casual cultivators thought this was an opportunity and came to inquire. My Ziyunfang was also very lively at that time."
"Not long after, there was no news about the monster. Since then, casual cultivators have disappeared one after another."
"In fact, these casual cultivators come and go very frequently, but many of them left without even informing their closest people. Only then did they feel that something was wrong."
"Three months ago, some casual cultivators came to my Ziyunfang for rescue. I hope our Yuanling Sect can find out about this matter."
"Someone came to ask for help, and I couldn't refuse, so I sent a letter to the foreign sect and asked them to send someone to investigate."
"The outer sect did send three disciples out, but there was no news after they went to Shang'an City..."
"That's when I repeatedly asked the outer sect to report to the inner sect and ask the inner sect's disciples to come out..."
Xu Chen explained in detail, but the situation he described was not very different from what they already knew, so there were no new valuable clues.
The only thing that drew Qin Shaoyou's attention was to report the matter to the inner sect. It was Xu Chen who asked for it, not the attention of Luo Xing, the deacon of the outer sect.
This Luo Xing, wants to take credit for such trivial "credit"?
Qin Shaoyou could only laugh at this.
Bai Xiyao's face became serious, and she seemed confused about this matter.
Qin Shaoyou thought for a while and asked:
"Master Xu, where is the casual cultivator who asked you for help?"
"Where is he?"
"Yes, yes!"
"Where is that person?"
"Recruit him quickly!"
Bai Xiyao rushed to say.
Xu Chen smiled bitterly and replied:
"To be honest, there was no news from that casual cultivator after he came to my place..."
"I don't know at this moment whether he ran away or..."
The clue is broken again.
The three fell into silence again.
After a long time, Qin Shaoyou spoke first again.
"Master Xu, you said before that there were traces of monsters outside Shang'an City?"
"What kind of monster is it?"
Bai Xiyao glared at Qin Shaoyou fiercely, and the latter smiled flatteringly, lowered his head and played with his fingers with a look of helplessness.
"I haven't seen that monster either, but I vaguely heard that it was a green-backed black and brown wolf. It seemed to be seriously injured."
"Those casual cultivators thought they could get a bargain, so they rushed there in droves."
Xu Chen carefully recalled the rumors at the time, and then responded to the two of them with a sure look on his face.
The green-backed black-brown wolf is a second-level wind monster. Its blood can be used to refine elixirs, its claws can be used to refine weapons, and its hair can be used to make spiritual pens for drawing talismans...
Anyway, they are all treasures.
This is also why casual cultivators are so crazy.
Bai Xiyao thought briefly and asked:
"Then where exactly did this green-backed black and brown wolf appear?"
Qin Shaoyou smiled happily. Fortunately, this senior sister was not too stupid.
"North of Shang'an City, near Ax Mountain!"
"But some people have seen it by the Cangjiang River west of Shang'an City..."
Xu Chen was a little unsure.
He just told him all the clues he had heard and knew now. As for the authenticity, he could not tell the truth.
Isn’t this nonsense again?
Qin Shaoyou frowned.
One says it's in the north, the other says it's in the west. Which side is it?
The two places are hundreds of miles apart.
Green-backed black and brown wolves are different from ordinary jungle wolves. They do not live in groups, and they have a clear sense of territory and will never run around!
Bai Xiyao thought for a long time and couldn't think of a reason.
"In this case, let's go look for them one by one!"
"Junior Brother Qin, let's go!"
She decided immediately.
The latter also had this intention, so he did not put forward any opinions. On the contrary, he even complimented him.
"Congratulations, senior sister! I admire you, junior brother!"
Bai Xiyao felt happy for a moment and stopped finding trouble with him.
The two of them left Ziyunfang with their respective weapons, and soon arrived at the Cangjiang River in the west of Shang'an City.
This is a large river that is more than ten years long and wide. The water rushes down. There are lush woods on both sides, and there is no place to stay.
"With such a big river, when will it be found?"
Bai Xiyao curled her lips, took a deep breath, and then let go of her spiritual thoughts to explore.
Unfortunately, she got nothing.
"Walk!"
"Go to the next one!"
She waved to Qin Shaoyou and immediately flew to the next destination.
Qin Shaoyou was speechless to the extreme.
If you want to find useful clues, you should go and take a look anyway, right?
Standing in mid-air, scanning with your spiritual mind, what can you find?
"hurry up!"
"Why are you dawdling?!~"
Bai Xiyao's displeased voice came from the distance.
Qin Shaoyou shook his head helplessly and could only follow her to Ax Mountain.
After another cup of tea, the two finally saw a high mountain that looked like an axe.
The woods here are not dense, so before Qin Shaoyou could speak, Bai Xiyao had already fallen down.
Qin Shaoyou was not in a hurry to fall down this time. He stood on the flying sword and circled around here, and he found something unusual.
The trees here are unevenly distributed, and there are many fallen trees in the jungle.
There should have been a battle here!
"What are you hanging around for?"
"Come down quickly!"
Bai Xiyao was speechless. Isn't it too difficult to lead this junior class?
Qin Shaoyou immediately flew down towards her and landed next to her.
"Sister, there seems to be something going on ten feet ahead."
"Do you even need to say this?"
"Sister, I have seen it a long time ago!"
Bai Xiyao glared at him, then picked up the gun and groped there.
Not far ahead is a bright open space.
The trees here have all disappeared for some reason, leaving only rotten tree stumps.
The ground was covered with decaying leaves, and no traces could be seen.
Qin Shaoyou held his sword and carefully opened a patch of grass in front of him.
Suddenly, he frowned, as if he felt something was wrong.
