The magic circle has just stopped now, and it will take some time for the fog to dissipate, so it is still quiet in Huaiyang City.
Mo You forgot about this.
The shop owner is still sleeping, but he doesn't look too good.
An empty bowl fell at the shopkeeper's feet. Most of the concoction in the bowl was spilled on the ground, and the little bit left in the bowl was completely cold.
The shop owner fell asleep beside the bed. Although he slept peacefully due to the gray mist, his hand that was half on the bed was clutching a piece of clothing...
As for the bed, the place where a person should have been lying was empty, with only a quilt that had been hurriedly lifted, and a complete set of clothes.
Mo You hesitated for a moment and then understood that the shop owner's wife had already been replaced by a mouse.
An unintelligent mouse relies on instinct to act. Even if it pretends to be an adult, it will only blindly imitate that person's actions and cannot escape this framework.
It is precisely for this reason that those people disguised as rats with low intelligence often have flaws, and you can see through them if you pay close attention.
But the shop owner's wife is different.
It's not that they don't care about the people in the outer city, but the signs of fighting in the inner city are too obvious when they rush all the way!
Although there is no body, there is still blood, splattered flesh and blood tissue, as well as signs of collapsed houses and burnt...
After this group of monks rushed out, the first thing they did was not run away, but rush to the outer city.
They are more sensitive than humans. When in danger, they can hide without even seeing a hair. Now that the danger is over, they start to have fun happily.
After leaving the gold ingot, Mo You was ready to leave.
Before the sudden change occurred in the city, she was deeply poisoned and bedridden. Later, even if there was a change in the city, the shop owner was still focused on making money to buy medicine for his wife's illness, and he had less time to spend with his wife at the hospital bed.
The dozens of people trapped here gathered together to communicate and started to make noises. They found that there was still no one to take care of it. Some people even used a little too much strength and even shook the door that was locked to them!
The monk holding the door latch had a blank expression on his face.
It was only yesterday that Mo You activated the formation, and these mice disguised as humans were also bewitched to reveal their true colors, and this matter was exposed.
This disagreement does not mean that these people have been abandoned by the forces they belong to. Most of the people who can say no to evil things and can stand firm in this position are capable and upright people.
Huaiyang City was in chaos before Mo You came. Businesses with backgrounds such as Zuixian Tower and Galloping Car Shop had already closed their doors to accept customers, so Mo You didn't plan to waste time. She planned to go to the next city to have a look.
At least rent a car and drive on.
Mo You had nothing else to do but give this man some money to comfort him.
So even if they are under supervision, people outside are feeding them well and feeding them well, and there is no abuse.
Then came the mortals who were woken up.
When Mo You left, Huaiyang City was still very quiet, like an empty dead city.
The first thing to recover were some small things in the city. All the wild cats, dogs and birds that had been hiding somewhere emerged.
With him taking the lead, other members of the aristocratic families also turned their heads. Those who came from the City Lord's Mansion also hesitated and chose to go back to the City Lord's Mansion to check the situation. Only the casual cultivators did not hesitate and left the city first.
The wife was widowed in middle age, and the two of them only had a daughter who was married outside and would not come back even once a year.
Moreover, since the person was so sick and groggy, the two of them had little communication, which made it easier to play the role.
This group of monks paused for a breath, and then rushed out in a hurry!
With a little hope, Mo You searched for the shopkeeper's wife all over the world. Finally, she found the rat dragging tattered human skin deep underground, which was the one who had replaced the shopkeeper's wife.
Now that they are out of trouble, they want to see how the people in the outer city are doing and whether they have really been harmed by this group of people!
After all, this door seems to be just an ordinary wooden door, but in fact it is engraved with a magic circle. Otherwise, how could a mere wooden door be able to close a group of monks?
Now that the door is open, the magic circle has failed for some reason.
After being awakened, these people did not dare to go out. They just stayed in the house and watched carefully. After they discovered that the long-lost little beasts were having fun on the street and nothing else happened, they boldly came out in twos and threes.
Begin to cautiously talk to people you can meet, familiar or unfamiliar.
They had been locked up in that small room for a long time. They had quarreled and reprimanded severely, but they could not change the minds of their elders, relatives, friends, and superiors.
Finally, a son of an aristocratic family couldn't stand the anxiety in his heart and turned around first and headed straight to his mansion in the inner city.
The ten rooms in Huaiyang City were empty, and there were many mortal casualties. However, due to the large number of people, there were still many who were still alive.
After Mo You left, there was some movement in Huaiyang City.
It was so difficult for the shop owner at the beginning that he insisted on treating his wife's illness. Now that the antidote has been prepared, he ended up in this situation...
It is said to be a residence, but in reality it is more like surveillance to prevent these people from ruining their good deeds!
When these people woke up, they found that all the people who had been guarding them had disappeared, and no breakfast had been delivered. This was very abnormal!
Among these people were children of aristocratic families, ordinary cultivators, and people from the city lord's palace.
Then there were the monks in the inner city who had also just woken up and were confused and didn't know what was going on.
The more they looked at these traces, the more frightened they became. In addition, there was no sound of human beings in the inner city...
This group of people rushed out of the inner city smoothly without any obstruction. This was originally a good thing, but their speed towards the outer city became slower and slower. Until they reached the gate of the inner city, they all stopped.
steps.
The inner city is not completely dead. At least some innocent mortals and children are still alive, but not too many.
There were only a few monks who were not involved in the conspiracy against the rat demon, only a few dozen of them.
Although the conspirators dislike these people and do not want to join them, they cannot abandon them.
Although it is inappropriate to say this, suddenly getting rich can always make people feel better.
They were squeezed out by the monks in the city and all lived in a remote place in the inner city.
Mo You thought for a moment, took out a few more gold ingots, and placed them next to the shopkeeper before he woke up.
Seeing this scene, Mo You didn't know what to say.
These people who are still alive tell these uninformed people what happened last night.
Although these people who were still alive also fell into coma in the gray mist, their coma time was much later, especially those in the city lord's palace.
The City Lord's Mansion was the last place to be breached, and it was also the last place where the gray mist spread.
Therefore, the people still alive in the city lord's palace also know the most.
And these people all categorically stated that it was the rat demon outside the city who attacked Huaiyang City at night and used some sorcery to resurrect the dead to fight for him!
