Second floor.
Window seat.
A table of four.
Three men and one woman.
Listening to the conversations of the diners in the restaurant, the young girl frowned and said, "Catching ghosts and demons is the responsibility of our Tianshi Sect. It's not easy to go down the mountain this time, so why not catch the big demon that is causing trouble for this area as well?"
As soon as the words fell.
The three men at the same table shook their heads in refusal.
"No."
"It's better to have less trouble than more."
"This mission should be the most important thing."
Seeing her three brothers shaking their heads in refusal, the young girl puffed out her cheeks and insisted, uncharacteristically, "Have you three brothers forgotten the purpose of our Tianshi Sect? To capture ghosts and demons, to rid the people of harm. That great demon captured several masters in public last night. If we don't get rid of it, it will surely cause even greater bloodshed in the future!"
See the girl insist.
The three brothers had no choice but to make excuses and decline, saying, "We also want to rid the people of this evil, but the demon is nowhere to be found. We only have three months to go down the mountain this time. We can't waste all our time searching for the demon and delay our real mission."
The girl said without hesitation, "This is easy. The great demon appeared in the palace last night. It must be related to the royal family of the Great Zhou Kingdom. If we break into the palace and demand to know its whereabouts, I believe the royal family of the Great Zhou Kingdom will not dare to hide it."
The three brothers smiled bitterly one after another.
How could a small royal family restrain a demon of that level?
They simply didn't believe that the big demon had anything to do with the royal family of the Great Zhou Kingdom.
Right at this moment.
One of the four men, an older man in blue, frowned suddenly and looked out the window, his eyes falling on a young man in his early twenties.
There was a look of doubt in his eyes.
The girl asked anxiously, "Brother, is there something wrong with that person?"
The other two also looked at it.
There was also a look of doubt in his eyes.
The blue-robed senior brother hesitated for a moment and said, "I sensed a faint demonic aura from that person... Perhaps it was just my illusion..."
The girl's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said excitedly, "That man must be related to the great demon that appeared in the palace last night. If we catch him, we can force him to reveal the whereabouts of the great demon!"
Said.
The girl was about to jump out of the window of the restaurant.
"Junior sister, less trouble is worse than more!"
"We have a mission from our sect this time. We need to capture a ghost and bring it back to the sect within three months. If we fail, we won't be able to leave the sect's secret realm until the spiritual energy is fully revived!"
"Yes, the mission should be the most important thing now. After we complete the assessment mission, it won't be too late to come back and kill the big monster."
The three brothers immediately dissuaded him.
After being stopped by the three men, when the girl looked out the window again, she had lost sight of the man.
…
Out of the city.
Li Siyuan ran straight to the mass grave outside the city.
In the days without the system, Li Siyuan always felt that his status as the son of the world was in jeopardy. Therefore, collecting energy and awakening the system was his most important task at the moment.
This isn't...
Having just resolved the farce of last night, he went out of town to look for something strange.
What a low-level system. I'm really worried about it.
Mass grave.
Fifty miles southwest of the imperial city.
Li Siyuan ran at full speed.
Half an hour later, they finally arrived at the mass grave.
At noon.
The sun is shining!
The sun is scorching!
However~
There was a lingering gray mist in the mass grave.
The light is dim!
The distribution of graves of different sizes is irregular.
The grave was covered with dry grass as tall as a person.
It was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.
Li Siyuan stood outside the mass grave, focused his eyes, looked inside for a moment, and then resolutely walked in.
The gray mist seemed to have life and automatically made way for a passage.
Gradually.
Li Siyuan's figure completely disappeared in the gray fog.
Li Siyuan was walking on dry grass when he suddenly stepped on a hard object. He looked down and saw that it was a human skeleton.
With a click.
Broken sternum.
The pale skull rolled half a meter away.
The dark, empty eye sockets stared at Li Siyuan at a strange angle.
Li Siyuan took a glance.
move on.
After he walked away.
There was a sneer in the dark eye sockets.
Two faint green flames rose...
The green fire flashed and then went out. If you didn't look carefully, you would think it was an illusion.
Li Siyuan was highly concentrated.
After walking around the mass grave.
No so-called weirdness was found.
“Shh! Shh!”
Two green ghostly fires as big as human heads suddenly lit up ten feet behind Li Siyuan.
The wind blows.
Two green ghost fires suddenly flew towards Li Siyuan.
Li Siyuan's blood and qi circulated in his body, and his body shook slightly. The two ghost fires that had not yet approached exploded with a bang, turning into green flames and dissipating between heaven and earth.
After a person dies, the phosphorus in the bones will automatically burn, forming the so-called ghost fire. This place is a mass grave, so it is not surprising to see ghost fires.
Li Siyuan, who knew the reason, concentrated his mind and did not sense any danger, so he continued to look for the crying ghost that Zhou Jing mentioned!
Searched again.
The sun sets.
The sky grew darker.
Li Siyuan still gained nothing.
He was determined to find the crying ghost.
He simply didn't leave.
Spend the night directly in a mass grave.
The gray fog grew thicker at the mass grave at night.
The sound of the wind was so sharp that it sounded like a ghost's cry.
A night of searching yielded no results.
When the sun rises.
Li Siyuan walked out of the mass grave with regret.
Maybe the rumor is wrong.
He thought so in his heart.
However, as Li Siyuan walked out of the mass grave and gradually moved away, a gray mist suddenly rolled in, like boiling water...
