"Wujimen disappeared?!"
Zhao Wenxuan and Lin Guoying passed through the foggy valley and arrived at the gate of Wujimen.
But what greeted them was only silence and desolation.
Under the dim sky, the continuous palaces rose one after another, hidden in the thick black fog, appearing and disappearing.
The cold mountain breeze blows across the skin, making the hair stand on end.
"What's going on? Why is there no one here?"
Lin Guoying looked at the empty buildings in the dead silent Wuji Gate, his face full of astonishment.
Originally they thought they were ready.
Confidence that no matter what happens, they have a solution.
But at this moment, they realized that their preparations were far from enough.
A completely unexpected situation.
There was silence all around, no one was around, and a depressing atmosphere filled the air.
The entire mountain gate, the open spaces, the paths, and even the roofs of the palace buildings were all covered with fallen leaves and dust, and it seemed that no one had cleaned them for a long time.
Along the way, I didn't find any trace of anyone around.
"Let's check around. I don't believe that such a large sect would disappear without a single person left."
Zhao Wenxuan frowned, looking vaguely ugly.
The two then began to explore the surroundings.
Walk through houses, palaces and other buildings.
But after half a day,
The entire mountain gate was searched, but no one was seen.
Not even any valuable clues were left.
"There were no signs of a fight, and everything was cleaned up and nothing was left."
"It seems that the people from Wuji Sect should have evacuated in advance."
In front of the mountain gate of Wujimen, two people walked out.
From this point on,
No more accidents happened.
Lin Guoying was thinking as he walked. He touched his chin and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.
"I've heard that these ancient ghost control forces that have been passed down for hundreds of years have some forbidden areas hidden inside, which contain extremely important secrets."
“But we found nothing along the way.”
"It turns out that they buried everything when they left."
"It seems that those guys left on their own initiative."
“But I don’t know where it went.”
Lin Guoying scratched his head, feeling a little depressed.
"Logically speaking, this is their ancestral land. Even if all the members of the sect have switched to cultivating immortality, they wouldn't leave no one behind and completely abandon the sect. Why would they abandon it so easily?"
Everything was moved away.
Naturally, there is no record of it in any of the ancient books.
This also means that
They came up empty-handed again.
After three months of gaining nothing, he had originally made up his mind to set foot on the territory of one of the most powerful sects in this strange world in order to obtain some clues.
The result was still nothing.
You can imagine how depressed they are .
"Maybe something happened that we don't know about."
"After all, over the years, with the emergence of immortal magic, the strange world has suffered a great impact."
Zhao Wenxuan's face didn't look very good either. He sighed and spoke out.
Once again, I missed.
Naturally, the mood will not be very good.
"So what should we do next? Continue looking for clues elsewhere?"
Lin Guoying looked at Zhao Wenxuan.
I saw him stop walking.
Look up at the gloomy sky.
"The Wuji Sect's mountain gate can be relocated, but there is a force that cannot be relocated. There must be clues!"
"Where is that?"
"Capital City, Demon Suppression Division!"
Zhao Wenxuan stopped talking after he finished speaking.
There were a few more words he hadn't said.
That is - the imperial palace.
Long before Zhao Wenxuan left Nanchuan County, he knew that there was something strange about his father's disappearance.
After his father Zhao Dayong was taken away by that strange mountain temple,
Although Zhao Wenxuan was still young at the time, he had already started some investigations.
When he became an immortal cultivator, he once used this identity to ask the immortal cultivators in Nanchuan County who had switched from being ghost controllers about some things in the strange world.
At that time, he realized something was wrong.
Because according to those cultivators who were transformed from ghost controllers,
The Demon Suppression Division is extremely cautious about any strange incidents occurring anywhere in the country.
Once a strange incident occurs, not only will the whole thing be investigated thoroughly, but also those who walk out of it alive will become the focus of attention, and some may even be assigned to work as minor officials in the government.
It is said that it is not only for surveillance to prevent being eroded by strange forces and causing serious consequences, but also as a reserve member of the court's anti-evil forces.
However, as far as he knew, after his father encountered the strange mountain temple when he was young, more than half of the caravan died, and the imperial court simply sent someone to question him, and that was the end of it.
As for the other follow-up,
Not at all!
This is completely different from the handling of other strange incidents! In order to confirm this, in the past three months,
He spent a large part of his time on the journey looking for the caravan members who had experienced the strange mountain temple with his father Zhao Dayong and survived, and asked them about what happened back then.
He did find several people.
After they confirmed the incident, the court did not pay much attention to the fact.
It is said that the leader of the caravan only paid funeral expenses to the families of the victims, and the imperial court almost turned a blind eye to it, as if nothing had happened.
As for the mysterious ghost controller related to the Demon Suppression Bureau, he never appeared from beginning to end.
The survivors of their caravan cooperated with the government's investigation for three or two days and were then allowed to leave.
There must be something wrong when things are abnormal! This is definitely not something that can be explained by a simple accident! "But, if the strange mountain temple that my father encountered the first time was a big trouble that the Demon Suppression Bureau dared not provoke, why did it appear in Nanchuan County the second time and send the demon control masters Mo Xianchang and Wang Xianchang to come?"
"No, it doesn't seem right! The strange incident that occurred in Nanchuan County at the beginning was just a strange smiling face, and the strange mountain temple has not yet appeared."
“Perhaps the higher-ups in the Demon Suppression Division didn’t take it seriously and didn’t think it was related to the Strange Mountain Temple.”
“That should be it!”
"After the dust settled on that incident, the Demon Suppression Division did not follow the usual procedure to send people to deal with the aftermath. Perhaps it was because that mountain temple involved something that even the Demon Suppression Division did not dare to delve too deeply into!"
Countless thoughts flashed through Zhao Wenxuan's mind.
All the information and intelligence he had searched in the past were actively connected in his mind.
He realized that the Demon Suppression Division's reaction was wrong.
"Although I don't know why my father was taken away by that mountain temple, and I don't know whether he is dead or alive now."
"But one thing is certain: the Demon Suppression Division, and even the Imperial City, must know the relevant secrets!"
Zhao Wenxuan was certain.
then,
Ten days later, the two arrived in the capital. (End of this chapter)
