Liang Yi walked out of the kitchen, opened the door, and saw a delivery man and two large boxes of fruit.
"Wow, two such big boxes." Liang Yi was shocked.
"Yes, the stuff is a bit heavy. Let me help you carry it in."
"Thank you for your help."
"No trouble."
Su Mu picked up a box of fruit and walked into the kitchen. Liang Yi's kitchen was just to the right after entering the door. When passing by, he pretended to glance at the kitchen casually.
There was a very beautiful woman in the kitchen, wearing an apron and cooking. Her appearance could score 90 points, no worse than that of a celebrity. No wonder the old men and women in the community felt that it was a blessing for Liang Yi to find her.
But Su Mu did not sense any demonic energy from her, and the fluctuations of her spiritual energy were within the range of ordinary people.
Is she good at hiding it? Or is it a mistake, and she is just an ordinary person?
Su Mu was not sure, so he could only hope that Kevin could use the magic props he had to find out something.
Withdrawing his gaze, he asked, "Where is it?" while looking around the room, but still found nothing.
"Just put it in the living room, against the wall, thank you." Liang Yi said, he carried another box of fruit in by himself, put it down and said, "Thank you for your hard work, have a drink of water."
"Thank you, no need to bother." Su Mu said, and was about to leave. As he left, he glanced at Xiao Zhi in the kitchen again, but still couldn't see anything wrong.
However, just as he withdrew his gaze and turned around, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, which made him feel as if a thorn was on his back. He subconsciously shuddered, but forced himself to suppress it.
These days, Su Mu has been taking dragon blood and bathing in dragon blood every day, plus eating a piece of Jia Guo occasionally. What has been improved is not only his cultivation, but also his various senses and his intuition.
At this moment, it was his intuition that sensed the danger.
This feeling of danger came and went quickly. If it were an ordinary cultivator, even if his cultivation was higher than Su Mu's, he might not be able to sense it.
But he felt it very clearly and was sure that it was definitely not an illusion or hallucination.
Although this home seems normal, there is actually a problem.
The only uncertainty is where the problem lies.
Su Mu wanted to turn around and check again, but he held back because Liang Yi was in the room, and if Xiao Zhi didn't have any problems, they would just be two ordinary people.
Once the enemy is alerted, even with Kevin hiding in the dark, he is not sure that he can protect the safety of Liang Yi and Xiao Zhi.
We can only retreat first, think of other ways, and then take action after finding the evil monster's hiding place.
We can basically rule out evil cultivators because there are only two people in this room.
Liang Yi had no problems and Xiao Zhi found nothing unusual.
Liang Yi didn't know about these situations. After sending Su Mu out the door, he said, "Goodbye." and then closed the door.
Su Mu walked downstairs and coughed lightly. He felt someone gently pulling him from behind, and he knew that Kevin had followed him out, so he felt relieved.
The two of them walked out of the apartment building in silence, and only returned to Kevin's house after making sure that no one was following them.
As soon as he entered the door, Kevin took off the cloak that was cast with the Disillusionment Spell, and Su Mu dispelled the illusion on his body and restored his original appearance.
"How is it? Did you find anything?" Su Mu asked.
Kevin shook his head: "That woman is just an ordinary person. I didn't sense any demonic energy or spiritual energy from her that was higher than that of an ordinary person. I also used a magic tool to test it, but there was no problem."
As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized, mirror-shaped magic weapon from his stretching magic bag.
This is not for touching up makeup, although it looks a bit like it.
After it is activated, it can capture the changes in the surrounding spiritual energy and demonic energy. It can not only be used to search for ferocious beasts and evil demons, but also to roughly judge their strength and reflect the results on the mirror.
Of course, if the target's strength is far beyond the range that this magic weapon can monitor, it will either be damaged or nothing can be measured.
But Kevin didn't think that the evil demon that harmed Liang Yi could be that powerful.
If it really was a powerful evil demon, it would have directly sucked Liang Yi dry. Why would it hide beside him and slowly steal his energy and vitality?
"What about you? What did you find?" Kevin asked casually after he finished answering.
Su Mu said: "I didn't find any demonic energy in Xiao Zhi, and her spiritual energy value is also within the normal range. But my intuition tells me that there is definitely something wrong with her or something in her."
"Intuition?" Kevin narrowed his eyes.
He did not question Su Mu, because for cultivators or magicians, intuition is very important and very accurate at certain times. Not to mention, there are a group of old men and women whose spirit and vitality are damaged, who can testify to Su Mu's judgment.
Anyone who has come into contact with Xiao Zhi has had their spirit and vitality sucked away. Even if Xiao Zhi is really an ordinary person, there must be something extraordinary about her.
So, what could it be?
The two frowned and thought, but they had no clue for the time being.
Kevin asked, "What should we do now? Should we just go and search the door? Or should we find a chance to trick the door open, and then I can sneak in with the Disillusionment Spell cloak and check?"
Su Mu shook his head and rejected the previous proposal directly: "It is definitely not possible to search the house directly. What if that thing is intelligent and senses danger, and takes Xiao Zhi as a hostage? Xiao Zhi is still pregnant... Wait, pregnant?!"
His eyes suddenly lit up: "Don't you think Xiaozhi's belly is too big? The old men and women in the community said that Liang Yi and Xiaozhi had only been in a relationship for half a month, but I see that Xiaozhi's belly is so big that she's about to give birth!"
Before, at Liang Yi's house, Su Mu was only busy looking for evil spirits. He just glanced at Xiao Zhi's belly and didn't think much about it - mainly because he was single, and apart from eating too much and making his own belly bigger, he had never made anyone else pregnant, so even if he saw it, he didn't think about it in that direction.
It was not until this moment, when I recalled the relevant content in the basic course of alchemy, that I suddenly realized that something was wrong.
No, that's not right.
It's not because of experience, I don't think about it that way.
It should be said that there was a mysterious force influencing his thinking and preventing him from thinking in that direction.
It was not until he left Liang Yi's house and was no longer affected by the mysterious power that his mind returned to normal.
The same is true for Kevin.
He said, "It seems a little too big? Weird, why didn't I notice this at the time? But this doesn't mean anything, maybe the two of them have been secretly together for a long time, but just announced the news recently? If so, Xiaozhi may have been pregnant a long time ago, so it's not surprising that her belly is so big."
This possibility cannot be ruled out, but Su Mu's intuition tells him that there is definitely something wrong with Xiaozhi's stomach!
Su Mu was very confident in his intuition - after all, he was "fed" with dragon blood and delicious fruits.
After thinking about it, Su Mu came up with an idea: "Let's go and ask the people in the community to see how big Xiao Zhi's belly was when she first moved in."
The two went out immediately and soon found the elderly people in the community.
When they asked about Xiaozhi's stomach condition, the uncles and aunts were all surprised: "Why are you asking this?"
This is really not easy to answer.
Su Mu turned his head and looked at Kevin, signaling to him: It's your turn.
Kevin chuckled, walked up to them and started chatting, making these old men and women dizzy. He didn't even ask them why they were asking about this, and just answered them obediently.
"I remember that when Xiaozhi first moved in, her belly wasn't that big."
"It's not big indeed."
“It’s very flat.”
"How long has she moved here?" Su Mu asked.
"It seems to be just over half a month?"
Su Mu and Kevin looked at each other.
Su Mu's guess was right! There was something wrong with Xiao Zhi's stomach. She was not carrying an ordinary fetus, but a demon fetus!
Kevin couldn't help but ask, "Don't you think it's a little strange that her belly went from flat to big to about to give birth in less than a month?"
"Is it weird? No. When you're pregnant, your belly will definitely change every day. It's normal."
"Yeah, that's normal."
"You are too young and have never had children, so you don't understand, haha."
The old men and women laughed at the two single people.
"No matter how old I am, I can't have children. I can only let others give birth to children for me."
Kevin muttered something under his breath, and then was dragged away by Su Mu.
Su Mu said as he walked, "It is certain that what is in Xiaozhi's belly is a demon fetus! Liang Ge's energy and vitality were sucked dry by the demon fetus. Although the demon fetus has not yet been born, it already has some special abilities, such as being able to influence people's thinking. Even you and I have been tricked, how can ordinary people be immune? Moreover, they are affected every day, and they don't think there is anything wrong with Xiaozhi's belly growing so fast."
Kevin nodded in agreement, then said, "Now that we have determined the problem, when are we going to destroy the demon fetus?"
"Let's go now!" Su Mu said, "Xiao Zhi's belly is so big that she's about to give birth. Once the demon fetus is born, it will immediately attack its parents! Because to the demon fetus, human parents are not parents at all, but nutrients like eggshells. But we have to plan carefully and not hurt Xiao Zhi. I also need to make a phone call to ask the police for help."
There are also cultivators in the police force. For example, the chief of the Yongfang City Police Department is a senior who graduated from the Qingcheng Mountain Cultivation University.
As soon as he took out his phone, he saw Kevin's expression suddenly change.
"What's wrong?" Su Mu asked hurriedly.
Kevin said quickly: "When I left Liang Yi's house, I secretly left an invisible beast there and asked it to report to me at any time. Now the invisible beast has sent me a distress message!"
Su Mu's expression also changed: "Has the situation changed? Go over there quickly!"
Shit, is it possible that a demon baby is about to be born?
Even though it was about to give birth, it couldn't be such a coincidence, right? Did our investigation just now alert the snake? Not only did it influence the thinking of the grandpas and aunts, but it also got feedback from them? Seeing that we were investigating it, it couldn't wait to come out to avoid being killed?
"Let the invisible beast find a way to prevent the birth of the demon fetus!" Su Mu gave orders while running, and at the same time he took out a number saved in his mobile phone and dialed it.
