Chapter 182: Apprentice vs. Immortal (59)
"Junior Sister, have you discovered anything?"
Qin Yun'er shook her head, "I'm not sure yet."
"It's okay. Big Brother is coming soon anyway, so let Big Brother handle it."
Yu Ying waved his hands lazily, then stretched himself, "Junior sister, since you're out now, I'll have to ask you to keep watch for me. I'm going to bed now."
Qin Yun'er saw that there was indeed a lot of blue-gray color under his eyes and nodded silently.
Yu Ying went to the room to rest. She sat on the chair and the fog in the forest gradually dissipated. Determination flashed in her eyes. She knew that she could find a way to solve the problem here without relying on her senior brother.
The next morning, Yu Ying and others walked out of the room. Perhaps it was the cold season, and there was a constant chilly wind blowing through the forest.
Yu Ying stretched lazily and said, "Let's go down and head to the village."
"yes."
Everyone jumped off the fairy boat, and Yu Ying put it away. Following the previous path, Yu Ying and others came to the entrance of the village, looked at each other, and stepped in together.
As soon as I entered, the road behind me was covered by fog and then disappeared out of thin air.
No one reacted, as this was all expected.
The sparse yellow leaves on the big locust tree at the entrance of the village were crumbling, and a thick layer of fallen leaves had piled up under the feet.
Everyone looked at the house not far away and then looked at each other.
"Let's go."
Yu Ying took the lead and the others followed, walking along the dirt road.
The village was in ruins and desolate, with everything in sight devastated.
As we walked along, we saw many courtyards filled with fallen leaves, a layer of dust accumulated on the debris in the courtyard, and even some houses with their doors wide open.
The door was wide open, so no one must be living there.
The other doors of the courtyards and rooms were all closed, as if they were afraid of something breaking in.
Everyone came to a door, looking at the tightly closed door, Yu Ying knocked on it.
"Is anyone there? I'm a disciple of the Wumian Sect, here to help apprehend the evil spirit. Could you please open the door?"
But no one responded for a long while. Yu Ying frowned. Just before his patience ran out, a doubtful voice finally came.
"Really?"
"certainly."
The man was silent for a moment, then said, "Then go find the village chief, he will receive you."
"The village chief's residence is just down the road. Go straight ahead, turn right at the end, and go another 200 meters."
Yu Ying looked at the tightly closed door and turned around silently, hoping that he had not lied to them, otherwise he would definitely come back and catch him.
"Let's go."
Everyone followed the route given by the villagers and arrived at the courtyard. The courtyard was bigger than others and the house looked better.
In summary, it should be the village chief's home.
However, the gate to the yard was not closed tightly. It was just a simple wooden fence door with only a rope tied to the wooden stake on the other side.
Seeing this, Yu Ying waved his hand and the fence door was immediately opened. As he stepped in, he felt something empty under his feet. The topsoil fell off, revealing a deep pit at his feet. At the bottom of the pit was a sharpened wooden stick.
If you accidentally fall down, you will probably be stabbed to death.
The people behind him were shocked by this sudden change and stopped. Yu Ying swiftly used his spiritual power to fly out and landed safely on the ground.
Just when he thought it was over, a net glowing yellow fell from the sky.
Yu Ying looked at the familiar net and easily dodged it by turning around.
"Monster Binding Net?"
A disciple exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the net that had fallen to the ground.
At this moment, with a "bang", the village chief's door was opened forcefully.
A young man in a brown robe walked out of the door, his eyes bloodshot and his hair messy, pointing at them angrily.
"You couldn't have come earlier or later, but you had to come after I set up the trap. Are you trying to piss me off?"
"Damn it, who are you?"
Two men in the same robes came out from behind him, and one of them followed him and accused him.
Yu Ying looked at the three of them, his chin raised high, his hands folded across his chest, and an arrogant look that looked down on everyone.
"I can come whenever I want, what's it to you guys?"
The leading man was furious, his face flushed as he pointed at him, "You...you..."
"Hey, two immortals, let's stop fighting among ourselves! The new immortals, please come in."
Soon an old man walked out of the door. He was originally furious, but when he saw Yu Ying and others wearing uniform white robes and having an extraordinary demeanor, he instantly understood their identities.
He quickly stepped forward to stop the two from arguing.
The leading man realized something when he heard this. He looked back and saw so many people. He looked again and his eyes widened in surprise. They were...
The water flowers embroidered on Yu Yingxue's white robe were lifelike, radiating a warm luster like a trickle of water. The white robes of other disciples were also embroidered with different decorative patterns.
When he saw Qin Yun'er, his eyes lit up. The woman had a delicate and lovely face, with a burning flaming Vermilion Bird embroidered on her head.
Zhuque's fiery red eyes seemed to be spitting fire, and were extremely aggressive, forming a sharp contrast with her harmless and even somewhat weak appearance.
Seeing him staring at Qin Yun'er without blinking, Yu Ying stood in front of Qin Yun'er and interrupted him unhappily.
"What are you looking at?"
Yu Ying glared at him fiercely and said, "You little toad, you still want to covet my junior sister?"
The man's momentum instantly weakened. This man was from the strongest sect in the Northern Territory. He only came from an unknown small sect. He bowed and apologized very tactfully.
"Brother, please don't be angry. I was just too angry just now. Please forgive me."
Seeing that he apologized so straightforwardly, Yu Ying felt embarrassed to pursue the matter and make him seem too petty.
He waved his hand and walked towards them, "Little thing, when did you get here?"
He reported honestly, "Brother, we arrived here seven days ago. There were more than a dozen of us, but now... there are only three of us left."
Having said this, he frowned in great pain.
Yu Ying: "Did you find anything?"
He was silent for a moment, "Not yet."
Yu Ying looked at him with displeasure. He had been here for so long and gained nothing?
"Have you ever seen an evil spirit?"
The leading man shook his head.
Yu Ying rolled his eyes speechlessly, "So what did you guys do?"
The man was not angry at all. After all, seeing them was like seeing hope of life. He had thought they were dead before, but he did not expect to meet disciples from the first sect.
He replied respectfully:
"We first stayed in the villagers' homes because the village chief said that villagers mysteriously disappeared at night, so we unanimously decided to act at night."
"But every night, nothing strange happened, but villagers still disappeared. Every time we rushed to the scene after hearing the news, the villagers had already been captured."
"What's most worrying is that my sect's disciples also started disappearing, and their bodies were thrown back at noon the next day."
"Oh? This evil spirit is so arrogant?"
Yu Ying touched his chin and raised his eyebrows. This behavior seemed like a demonstration or revenge.
But he said he didn't find anything strange, so how could there be no clues at all?
