Yuan Yuanyuan had no idea what decision the head of the Li family had just made. She did think about it, but her thoughts were too simple.
At this time, she and Fat Cat both felt that the head of the Li family did this to vent his anger.
Originally, outsiders knew relatively little about the Hongshajing incident. For example, the Taoists did not know any news about the incident at all.
This is considered a taboo among monsters, and as time goes by, even fewer monsters know about this taboo.
Yuan Yuanyuan and Fatty Cat were the ones who knew nothing about it. Even the two of them didn't know, which shows how few people knew about it.
Although the successful monsters were told to pay attention to their food and water intake, Yuan Yuanyuan still felt uneasy. She was prone to overthinking about everything, and now she wanted Fanning to solve the problem as soon as possible, because if it was delayed any further, she always felt that something would happen.
No one in the city knows anything yet. The lady opposite Liu's house is still cooking, and the children in the house are still running around. No one knows what is about to happen in the city. Everyone thinks that as long as they close the door safely, nothing will happen. Even if something does happen, they can just avoid it.
In this way, time passed slowly. On Tuesday morning, Yuan Yuanyuan received a message from the humans. They had received the message Yuan Yuanyuan sent last night. Although they didn't know what was going to happen, they were already prepared. In this era, it is difficult to suddenly evacuate all humans from a city, so they can only strengthen defenses.
Yuan Yuanyuan knew that the military and material reserves here were rumored to be sufficient... She didn't know if it was due to geographical reasons or if they were just trying to guard against the monsters here.
Some patrol policemen began to appear on the streets, and there was no telling how many plainclothes officers there were. Then, at noon, Yuan Yuanyuan saw an orange warning on her phone, saying that it was going to rain heavily, and that it was best for citizens to stay at home.
This is a good method. Yuan Yuanyuan remembered that she had heard that in order to prevent innocent people from getting involved in the fight between monsters and Taoist priests, the government once used the excuse of a major man-made or natural disaster to prevent people from passing through... Although the social impact caused by this is definitely great, it is also a more effective method at this time.
However, that is the last resort. At present, it seems that the human side is still waiting and watching, and is not ready to take action for the time being.
Yuan Yuanyuan had been looking at the street outside, afraid that she would suddenly see something collapse. However, she waited from morning till night, and nothing happened.
Tuesday was very quiet, as if nothing had happened.
This made Yuan Yuanyuan feel a little panicked.
She called the monster who came to report the news yesterday and asked him, "Is the news you brought yesterday really accurate? There is no change now."
"...I think...it's normal for the news to have some errors, but this time it was really difficult to get the information." said the monster in front of him.
While the two were talking, there was a sudden thunder explosion behind them, which scared them.
They turned around and looked back, and found that a red cloud had appeared in the sky at some point.
The bright red clouds are different from ordinary dark clouds.
The clouds were almost piled up, and looked like a piece of red satin. However, it was obviously not as pleasing as satin, and when Yuan Yuanyuan saw it, her heart tightened a little.
When did this red cloud appear?
Yuan Yuanyuan looked down and found that the direction from which the red cloud appeared just corresponded to the mansion where the King of Monsters lived.
"This weather forecast is really accurate. It really rains when it says it's going to rain," someone on the street muttered to himself. "But it looks like it's going to rain heavily, so why is there only an orange warning?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his cell phone rang. He opened it and saw a red warning.
Hmm, the speed of the warning this time was unexpectedly fast?
But then again, didn't the red cloud in the sky appear a little too quickly? When I looked up just now, I didn't notice such a big red cloud in the sky.
It was a bit strange from beginning to end. People on the street were thinking about it while rushing home.
At this time, humans and monsters were looking at the red cloud in the sky.
Yuan Yuanyuan thought that this time humans would probably take bigger actions.
…
Yuan Yingli didn't find the fat cat.
The two monsters he sent to pick them up last night finally woke up. The first thing they did when they woke up was to be dragged out by Yuan Yingli and asked what happened yesterday.
Although the two monsters didn't know why Yuan Yingli was so nervous, they still told him everything. After they finished speaking, they saw Yuan Yingli's face change.
Yuan Yingli said that the fat cat was missing.
The person who knocked out the two monsters must be someone who knew the identity of the fat cat. Maybe it was the subordinate of the Li family master who was sent out to look for the fat cat and suddenly saw him.
If the fat cat falls into their hands, it will probably be in great danger.
Yuan Yingli said that the fat cat was probably going to die. Although he was very eager to find the fat cat, he didn't have a general direction at the moment. Moreover, even if he went to look for it, it would be difficult to find it in this situation.
He could only put aside his anxiety for the time being and wait for the fat cat to come out by himself, or go look for him after everything was over.
Fat Cat stayed in Yuanyuan's place and never thought about going out, let alone replying to Yuan Yingli.
He just looked around with those big cat eyes.
Fanning kept asking around the mansion. At this moment, he had no choice but to go there in person. The Li family's patriarch was too defensive. Even with the city gates wide open, they only let in some small monsters. Fanning's troops were still completely blocked outside the city.
Now he could only go and investigate in person, because the two people he brought with him were not very good at this. But he himself was still good at this.
The residence of the King of Monsters is naturally not as easy to sneak into as other places. Fanning failed the first two times. Fortunately, he was not caught. However, he could only stay at the door and could not sneak in.
He found something very strange. Many guards at the door went in and out, but few came out. If he remembered correctly, this house was not very big because it was built a long time ago. At that time, houses were not as exaggerated as they are now, and the place where the King of Hundred Demons lived was mainly concerned with safety, so there were few places to hide people.
The closer these people moved, the thicker the red clouds in the sky became.
Fanning was closer to the house, so he could better appreciate the power of the red clouds in the sky above the house.
It was hard to explain, as if there was an eye inside gazing at him.
When he was extremely anxious, Fanning looked back at a small puddle beside him. Suddenly he was stunned to see a line of faint words in the puddle.
He went over to take a look.
The water was like a mirror, reflecting a line of words: "Be careful of the well."
Fanning, "..."
He leaned over to look at the words in the water. The wind blew gently, causing ripples on the water surface and making the words blurred.
"Brother, you are too naive." Fanning muttered to himself. He was the only one around here, and he didn't know who he was talking to. "Every time he appears, he says the same thing, and it's always incomprehensible. How long will it take me to figure out what this sentence means this time? By the time I figure it out, the daylily will be cold."
He casually drew a line on the water surface, and the words on the water surface disappeared instantly. Fanning didn't seem too surprised, as if this was normal.
He continued to look at the water, and saw another sentence slowly emerging from the water: "Go back and ask Changsheng."
Fanning was stunned and stood up immediately. "Oh my god, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
He ran quickly towards his house. Changsheng had been staying in the house these days and had not come out. He wanted to go back and find Changsheng as soon as possible. The key to the matter was actually in Changsheng's body, but he had not discovered it for such a long time.
When he returned to the house, he didn't dare to tell Changsheng about this privately, because he couldn't explain how he saw a line of words in a pool of water, so he could only say, "Changsheng, I just discovered something. Many people entered the house of the King of Monsters, but no one came out. The sky was full of red clouds. I heard the two guards at the door vaguely mention something about a well..."
"Well..." Changsheng frowned, "What well?"
He walked back and forth on the ground for a few times, looking a little uneasy. Fanning rarely saw Changsheng like this, because he had always been a very quiet and easy-going person.
Changsheng walked back and forth for several times, and Fanning became more and more uneasy. Finally, Changsheng turned around and said, "Take me over there to have a look."
"Ah?" Fanning was stunned.
"I have to go and see for myself to know what's going on." Changsheng said, "This matter is a bit serious, I can't say anything nonsense, because it's a private matter of the monster..."
He turned his head and glanced at Fanning, seeming to be vaguely worried, but finally turned his head away so that Fanning could not see the look in his eyes.
Fanning wondered what was going on...why was it so serious?
Changsheng is so hesitant, could it be that he is involved in some secret of the monster?
In fact, although this matter is considered a secret of the monster, it has nothing to do with Changsheng not telling Fanning. He is mainly afraid that Fanning will be stimulated after hearing it.
——Because the last person to pressurize the well was Yuan...
"By the way, how did you know this?" Changsheng suddenly thought of a possibility on the way, and asked tentatively, "You definitely couldn't have heard it from a guard or a maid. If you could hear them tell this, it would rain red from the sky."
Fanning rubbed his nose awkwardly. Changsheng looked at his reaction but ultimately said nothing.
