The Jade Maiden Sect's Great Buddha Hall was surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside.
It turns out there is more than just Mrs. Jin.
In a neighboring village, a newly married bride also had her blood sucked.
Just like Mrs. Jin, she was sent to the Jade Maiden Sect.
Now, all the women who fell ill were sent to the inner hall.
The others stayed behind and gathered in front of the Great Buddha Hall, anxiously waiting for news.
"Everyone is talking about mountain ghosts. Big brother, have you ever seen a mountain ghost?"
Lin Manman squeezed into the crowd and quietly asked the people around her.
These are some mountain people.
He has dark skin, thick joints, and thick calluses on his knuckles. It's obvious that he's a good hunter.
They didn't want to answer.
But Lin Manman blinked her big, clear and watery eyes, as delicate and beautiful as the little girl at home.
An indescribable sense of intimacy arises spontaneously.
The mountain tribe leader sighed and said:
"How could you not have seen it? Everyone here has seen it."
It is said that the mountain ghost has a pointy face without flesh, a thin body, and is covered with red hair.
At first glance, everyone thought it looked like a red-haired monkey.
However, they had been hunting in the mountains for forty years and had never seen such a strange red-haired monkey.
——When it sees people, it is not afraid, but will stop in front of the people and scream.
No one cared at first.
But who would have thought that not long after, women covered in blood suddenly appeared throughout Jiangcheng and even in nearby villas.
At first, the incident happened suddenly and everyone had no idea what to do. They could only watch the woman die.
Later, a woman fell ill at the foot of Yunvjiao Mountain.
It was the Jade Maiden Sect's leader who used her medical skills to save the woman's life.
Only then did everyone realize that the new leader of the Jade Maiden Sect was a medical immortal with superb medical skills.
Now, after a few months, he has saved countless women.
"But, they say these women suddenly fell ill. How can we be sure it's the work of mountain ghosts?"
Lin Manman imitated the mountain people, squatting in the corner with them and asking seriously.
"Of course, it's not certain at first."
The mountain village chief rubbed his brow and said:
"But later, when the women who were saved by the leader gathered together and discussed things, they discovered that they all had one thing in common: they had all been stopped by the mountain ghost."
According to the leader of the mountain people, mountain ghosts are elusive and appear and disappear mysteriously.
Not only does it wander around the mountains, but sometimes it also runs to Jiangcheng City.
In the middle of the night, women often suddenly discovered that a mountain ghost appeared at the head of their bed, looking down at them from above.
When it sees them wake up, it will open its mouth and reveal a strange smile, just like a human...
“Huh!”
Hearing this, the young lady rubbed the goose bumps on her arms vigorously.
The mountain chief glanced at her and continued to talk:
"Then they became ill. Tell me, if this isn't the work of mountain ghosts, then what else could be going on?"
"That's true."
The eldest lady nodded seriously.
"Since you know it's a mountain ghost, why don't you try to get rid of it?"
Lin Manman asked again:
"The Jiangcheng Lu family is one of the four great cultivation families, and has always taken it as their mission to slay demons and monsters."
"There are many talented people in the clan who protect the peace in this area."
"Why don't you all just ask the Lu family and the city lord for help?"
"Why don't you ask for help? Hey, little girl, you don't know anything."
The mountain leader looked around and whispered in Lin Manman's ear:
"However, now, the city lord and his family may not be able to protect themselves."
"What?!"
Lin Manman was shocked.
The mountain leader lowered his voice and said:
"I heard that the City Lord's wife was also affected, and the young master has been missing for a long time in order to avenge his mother."
"how so?……"
Although Lin Manman had never met the young master of Jiangcheng, his name was well-known to her.
It is said that Lu Lingkong, the young master of Jiangcheng, is a posthumous child.
His father died heroically in the battle with the Demon King.
His mother disappeared for a long time while she was pregnant with him.
His second uncle tried every possible means and finally found him from the endless abyss.
At that time, he was five years old.
It was astonishing that the eldest lady had broken through to the Golden Core stage at the age of eighteen.
When Lu Lingkong was six years old, he discovered that he had a wind spiritual root and a heavenly spiritual body, and only then did he begin to embark on the path of cultivation.
As a result, he had already achieved the Golden Elixir at the age of sixteen.
It is said that on the day when the golden elixir is achieved, all flowers will bloom, all birds will sing, colorful clouds will fill the sky, and fairy music will float in the air.
The lingering sound lasts for three days.
All this proves that the young master of Jiangcheng is favored by heaven, has amazing talent, is outstanding, and has a bright future.
But how could such an outstanding talent disappear?
The key point is that Lin Manman didn't hear anything at all.
Moreover, during the Immortal Alliance Conference, she had clearly met the second uncle of the Jiangcheng Lu family, who was now the acting city lord of Jiangcheng.
Thinking back carefully, he seemed calm and composed.
It seemed that he didn't care about his sister-in-law's sudden illness and his nephew's disappearance without explanation.
[How come I can vaguely smell the scent of a big melon? ]
Lin Manman thought about it and wanted to look up some information.
The Demon Lord, who was hiding on the beam, quickly pricked up his little ears and waited to eat the melon.
“Ding ding ding…”
But at this moment, the alarm of the mountain guarding formation suddenly sounded.
This means that someone is trying to break into the Jade Maiden Sect without permission.
