Su Mu looked regretful: "Thank you for the invitation, Brother Liang. I also want to have a drink with Brother Liang, but time does not allow it. I have limited time to take leave this time, and now it is almost used up. I have to hurry back."
"That's such a pity." Liang Yi was very disappointed.
"Yeah, that's a pity." Su Mu agreed, and then said, "When Brother Liang gets married, let me know in advance, and I will definitely be there on time."
Liang Yi was immediately happy when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Then it's settled, you must come, and you must bring Xiao Ye with you."
"Of course." Su Mu replied. After a pause, he pretended to ask casually, "How is Brother Liang doing recently?"
"fine."
"You're feeling well too?"
"Very good. Maybe it's because I'm getting married and having kids. I've been very motivated lately. I feel like I have endless energy..."
After showing off for a while, Liang Yi concluded: "Maybe this is what the old saying means: when good things happen, people feel refreshed."
"That's really great." Su Mu smiled, but the worry between his brows became even more intense, but Liang Yi did not notice this.
After chatting for a few more words, Liang Yi left with the food. When he left, he reminded Su Mu that he must tell him in advance when he comes back next time and have a couple of drinks.
After he walked away, Kevin, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't hold it in any longer and whispered, "There's something wrong with this person."
"Something is wrong." Su Mu said.
Kevin's comment: "Looking at his appearance, his energy and spirit are severely depleted, his body has been hollowed out, and his vitality is extremely weak. To use an idiom, he is in the twilight years of his life."
Su Mu corrected him, "...Don't use idioms indiscriminately. The waning years of a candle are used for the elderly. In Liang Ge's case, it should be the end of his life."
"Oh oh." Kevin nodded repeatedly.
Su Mu frowned and said, "Brother Liang's condition is obviously very bad, but he says he is full of energy. There must be some evil thing that is devouring his spirit and vitality, and at the same time paralyzing him with special means, making him hallucinate and his mind is always in an excited state, so he can't perceive the deterioration of his body."
Kevin said, "In my opinion, this matter is most likely caused by his beautiful girlfriend! Do you think his girlfriend is a demon?"
"It's possible, but it could also be an evil cultivator practicing the art of collecting and replenishing energy."
Su Mu also placed his suspicion on Liang Yi's partner.
Because a month ago, Liang Yi didn't have a girlfriend and was fine. Now that he has a girlfriend, his health has become exhausted. His girlfriend is naturally the first suspect.
"Why didn't you remind him just now?" Kevin asked puzzled.
Su Mu smiled bitterly: "How to warn him? Tell him that your girlfriend might be an evil demon or an evil cultivator? Do you think he will believe it? Maybe he will be alarmed."
"What should we do? We can't just sit back and do nothing, right?" Kevin asked.
Before leaving, Wen Wubin reminded them that if they encountered ferocious beasts or evil monsters, they must kill them to protect the safety of the people.
The school’s mission system also has bounty missions for hunting down ferocious beasts and evil monsters, with generous rewards.
Although Kevin has no shortage of money, he wants to earn credits for the lottery.
The lucky draw roulette in the school's points exchange was just what he wanted. He spent almost all of his earned credits on it, but unfortunately he never won anything good due to his bad luck, but he never got tired of it.
Su Mu pondered and said, "We certainly can't sit idly by, but we can't act rashly either. What if we guessed wrong, and the evil demon or evil cultivator is not Brother Liang's target, but someone else? Wouldn't that alert the enemy? Maybe it will even harm Brother Liang. Let's stay in the community first and understand the situation first."
"What can we learn about the situation in the community?" Kevin expressed his doubt.
Su Mu glanced at him and said, "Haha, you underestimate our uncles and aunts."
“???” Kevin was confused.
Su Mu didn't waste any time. He took him for a walk around the community, found a number of old men and women who were chatting together, and asked them about Liang Yi's girlfriend.
"Liang Yi's girlfriend? I've seen her. Her surname seems to be Zhi, but I forgot her name. We all call her Xiao Zhi. She's a nice girl, pretty, well-educated, gentle, and a great cook. It's a blessing for Liang Yi to find a girlfriend like her!"
"Xiao Zhi and Liang Yi have known each other for a long time, but they only confirmed their relationship half a month ago. Speaking of which, that brat Liang Yi is quite quick... Hey, do you think this guy might have used some tricks to make things a fait accompli for Xiao Zhi to marry him?"
"Xiao Zhi's hometown is Wenshan County. Both his parents are deceased, and he has no brothers or sisters. Like Liang Yi, he used to work in a newspaper..."
"Liang Yi hasn't been in contact with anyone else recently. Since he got a partner, he goes home straight after get off work on time every day..."
After asking around, Kevin was shocked. He really didn't expect that these uncles and aunts knew so much about Liang Yi and his girlfriend Xiao Zhi - from their origins and family background to their work units and interpersonal relationships, they knew everything clearly.
It's just terrible.
He couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Teacher Su, are these people really ordinary uncles and aunts? They are not hidden agents, right?"
Su Mu laughed dumbly: "Have you ever seen agents from any country like this? They are just ordinary people who like to know things. Let me put it this way, if you live in this community, it won't take long for them to know everything about you. That's not even impressive. The real impressive ones are the people in Chaoyang District."
"Hiss!" A thought suddenly popped up in Kevin's mind: Chinese uncles and aunts are so scary!
Then he felt relieved: Fortunately, I am better at chatting than them, so I don’t have to be afraid of them.
In fact, the information obtained is not very useful in judging whether Xiao Zhi is an evil demon or a demon cultivator.
However, Su Mu discovered some problems with them - everyone who had come into contact with Xiao Zhi had their energy and vitality diminished to varying degrees.
It's just that their decline is limited and can't be compared with Liang Yi. In addition, they are old people, and their spirit and vitality are already declining, so Su Mu and Kevin didn't notice this situation before. It was not until this moment that they discovered these problems after being alerted by Liang Yi's situation.
After leaving the old man and the old lady, Su Mu whispered, "It seems that this Xiao Zhi is probably problematic. Anyone who has come into contact with her has had their energy and vitality sucked away."
"What are you going to do?" Kevin asked.
Su Mu thought about it and made a decision: "Let's go check out the situation first. If she is not strong enough, we will call the police for help and kill her. If her strength is far above ours, we will call the director and the others."
Liang Yi had helped him a lot before, and now Liang Yi was in danger, he couldn't just sit back and do nothing! What's more, they were students of the Cultivation University, cultivators, and it was their duty to protect ordinary people from harm by evil spirits.
However, when dealing with evil demons or evil cultivators, you must not be impulsive.
Because they are different from fierce beasts, they are more intelligent and cunning! If they are not careful, not only will they fail to save Liang Yi, but they will also have to put themselves in trouble.
We need to investigate thoroughly first and then plan a specific plan.
Kevin asked, "How? When Liang Yi returns, he will definitely tell Xiao Zhi about his encounter with you, and then about your admission to the Cultivation University. It is even possible that he has already told Xiao Zhi about this. If you come here rashly, you will alert the enemy, not to mention investigating the situation."
"I know." Su Mu nodded. "So, I can't come to you in my original appearance."
"You can change your image?" Kevin was stunned, and then thought of the trick Lin Junjie used to lure Yingyu. "No way, you even learned illusion?"
Su Mu smiled: "Yeah, a little bit."
He did not perform the magic immediately, but went to the fruit shop outside the community and bought a large box of apples and a large box of oranges.
After being carried into the community, he first went to the house where Kevin was buried and cast an illusion to turn himself into a completely different stranger. The clothes on his body also turned into the uniform of Meituan takeout. At the same time, he also pasted a talisman inside his clothes to completely restrain his spiritual energy.
After finishing all this, Su Mu picked up two large boxes of fruit and said, "I'm going to find out the situation. You wait here for me."
"I'll go with you, so that I can take care of you if anything happens." Kevin said, and used a talisman to restrain his breath. He took out a cloak with an invisibility spell from his stretching magic bag and put it on.
In an instant, his body disappeared, leaving only a head that suddenly appeared in the air, like a flying head. When he put on the hood of his cloak, this "lonely" head also disappeared.
"I almost forgot you had this treasure. Okay, let's go together. Leave your phone in the dimension to avoid any damage."
Su Mu gave some instructions and went out first, carrying two boxes of fruit.
Kevin followed closely behind.
The two soon arrived at Liang Yi's door.
Su Mu put down two large boxes of fruit and did not knock on the door in a hurry. Instead, he looked around, but did not find anything unusual, nor did he sense any energy such as demonic or murderous energy.
Then he raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Liang Yi's voice came from outside the door.
"Takeout." Su Mu responded. Under the influence of the illusion, his voice also changed a little and was different from his original voice.
In the room, Liang Yi, who was helping his girlfriend in the kitchen, was a little surprised.
"I didn't order takeout, did you order takeout?" He turned and asked the woman next to him.
The woman shook her head and said, "I didn't order anything either."
"You delivered the wrong thing? We didn't order any takeout." Liang Yi said to the outside.
"The address is correct. Are you Mr. Liang Yi? A man named Su Mu bought two boxes of fruit and asked us to deliver them."
"Su Mu bought it?" Liang Yi was stunned at first, then he laughed happily: "This kid is really polite."
