On the third day, Li Jiaojiao and Fu Yingxue reconciled, and the two chatted hand in hand again. Naturally, the other three men didn't care about the previous trivial matters, and soon became close to each other again.
Except Yunzheng.
To be honest, Yunzheng didn't want to blend in because there was no need to wrong herself.
Yunzheng concentrates on doing tasks when she is doing them. The rest of the time is spent practicing or talking to Dajuan Erbai Sanfeng.
The days are pretty happy too.
But looking in Li Jiaojiao's eyes, she felt that Yunzheng deserved to be so lonely, and at the same time, she felt a sense of superiority in her heart.
If Yunzheng knew her psychological journey, she would probably be speechless.
She is not an important person in the first place, is it worth it for her to be lonely?!
joke.
When doing tasks, Yunzheng didn't show much strength. After all, they were small tasks, and six people were more than enough.
Before I knew it, two more days had passed.
Finally we arrived at Minghua City, a town at the foot of Beiqi Mountain.
Although it is a small town, it belongs to the great country of Zhongli, so the spiritual energy and architecture are much better than those in the capital of the great Chu country.
However, Minghua City is now a bit more desolate.
There are many casual cultivators on the street, but most of them have thin faces, black and swollen eyes, and are a little sluggish when they walk.
I heard this is a symptom of evil spirits entering the body.
The main mission of Yunzheng and others this time is to remove some evil spirits from Minghua City, extract the evil spirits and put them into soul-locking bottles, and then bring them back to the Holy Academy to study their causes.
Entering the city, Yunzheng faintly felt an unpleasant smell coming from her, which made her frown.
Others can't smell this smell.
Yunzheng practices mystical arts and is naturally sensitive to such evil spirits.
However, this evil spirit seems to be controlled by a relatively mysterious force...
Fu Yingxue looked at her sideways: "Junior Sister Yun, let's book a hotel room first."
Yunzheng nodded.
A group of them settled in a hotel in the city called the 'Mingyue Inn'.
One room per person.
Fu Yingxue said: "I'll go with Zhao Shan to find out what's going on here. You can rest in the inn first."
Yunzheng shook his head, "I'll go too."
Fu Yingxue and Zhao Shan looked a little surprised.
In the past few days of missions, I have never seen Yunzheng be so proactive.
"Okay." Fu Yingxue and the others had no reason not to agree.
After going downstairs, Fu Yingxue first asked the innkeeper to find out the situation, "Honor, you are the evil spirits in Minghua City..."
"Girl!" The shopkeeper immediately interrupted her, winking and whispering in fear: "The city lord has ordered that no one in the city should mention those two words again, otherwise they will be taken to the dungeon."
Yunzheng narrowed her eyes.
Fu Yingxue and Zhao Shan looked at each other, a little puzzled and more surprised.
People in the lobby on the first floor of the inn also turned their attention to the three of them from time to time.
Yunzheng calmly pulled Fu Yingxue's sleeve and changed the subject with a smile, "Shopkeeper, I want your signature dish to be delivered to my room when I come back later."
When the shopkeeper saw such a beautiful little girl, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He smiled respectfully and said, "Okay, don't worry, everything in our Mingfu Inn is first-class."
"Then thank the shopkeeper." Yunzheng smiled and nodded.
After the three of them left the Mingfu Inn, Yunzheng felt that the thorny feeling of being watched disappeared.
Fu Yingxue: "Little Junior Sister Yun, what did you mean just now?"
Zhao Shan also found it difficult to understand.
Yunzheng raised her eyes and looked at them, "Let's go first."
The two were confused.
But after walking for a while, there was a voice in their minds: "Don't look at me, find a hidden place, and send the message back to the Holy Court. Minghua City is in danger! The people behind it must be extremely powerful, and we cannot deal with it."
of."
Yunzheng's words reached their ears.
There was a flash of disbelief in their eyes. Although it was hard to believe, they were inexplicably convinced by Junior Sister Yun's words.
Trust her, you won't be wrong.
This is the conclusion they came to during this time.
As I walked, I came to a restaurant and asked for a private room.
Fu Yingxue expanded her mental power to block other people's prying eyes.
Then, she used her identity token to send a message back to the Holy Court, but the message could not be sent!
"I can't deliver the message!" Fu Yingxue said in shock.
"Let me try." Zhao Shan looked serious, and then took out his identity token to summon help, but there was still no response.
Fu Yingxue and Zhao Shan immediately looked at Yunzheng.
Yunzheng took a deep breath, shook her head, and said regretfully: "I have tried it a long time ago, but I didn't expect that you can't do it either."
Fu Yingxue said sadly: "What's going on?"
Yunzheng: "The moment we step into Minghua City, we are equivalent to being included in the scope of Minghua City, and no communication or anything else will work."
Zhao Shan: "Is it caused by evil spirits?"
"It's not clear yet." Yunzheng shook his head, "We probably won't be able to get out now."
Zhao Shan frowned, "Then... what's going on with the people in Minghua City? Why can't they mention evil spirits?"
Yunzheng: "I'm afraid it has something to do with the city lord. The small town at the foot of Beiqi Mountain was affected and became like this. The one in Beiqi Mountain..."
The situation of Feng Xinglan, Mo Jing and others may not be good either.
Fu Yingxue and Zhao Shan were even more worried and fearful.
Yunzheng knocked on the table with her fingers, making a "dong dong" sound. Suddenly she turned to look at Zhao Shan, "Brother Zhao, do you know what kind of person the lord of Minghua City is?"
Zhao Shan racked his brains and thought for a moment, "I heard that he is a strong man from the Ling Sect who is over a hundred years old. He doesn't charge entry fees. His character should be pretty good."
"We want to start with the city lord of Minghua City. There must be a reason why he doesn't allow evil spirits to be brought up." Yunzheng said, her eyes slightly cold.
Fu Yingxue asked tentatively: "Shall we go now?"
"No, it's too hasty to go now. We don't know anything now. It would have been easy for the city lord to take advantage of us now."
"Little Junior Sister Yun is right."
"Let's take another look at the situation."
The three of them chatted for a while, and then the waiter from the restaurant came to serve the food.
"Sir, please take your time," the waiter greeted warmly.
Just when the waiter was about to retreat, Yunzheng called him.
"Wait a moment."
The waiter smiled broadly and asked, "Sir, do you have anything else to do?"
Yunzheng smiled and said: "Does your city lord have any sons or daughters?"
The waiter was obviously stunned.
Fu Yingxue and Zhao Shan were also stunned, and they looked at each other in confusion.
The waiter reacted with a toothy smile, "The city lord is not yet married, and our city lord is so handsome that there is nothing like it in the sky or on earth. Has your guest taken a fancy to our city lord?"
Fu Yingxue: "..." Does "unparalleled handsomeness" describe a man who is over a hundred years old?!
Zhao Shan: "..." Blind worship, right?! He actually said that Junior Sister has taken a fancy to him!
