The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 314 Clues
Ning Yuan's words made several people fall silent. Indeed, instead of worrying about Yang Yang and Yuan Mu, it is more realistic to think about the matter in front of them.

The place where they are now is Xishan, a mountain in the capital city of Caiyun Province, and there is a very famous Yunhu Lake under the mountain

According to the address given by the travel agency, they found a hotel near this mountain, because according to the information of the travel agency, Yu Man stayed here for a long time.

However, when they checked in, they discovered that the hotel was run by a monster.

If it is a human being, it may not be easy to handle, but if it is a monster, this matter will have a turning point.

Yinglong came forward and told the monster about this matter, not to mention anything else, Yinglong's face, no matter who it is, will give it.

So the three of them arrived at Yu Man's whereabouts smoothly, but what they expected was that the whereabouts were not detailed.

"According to what I know about Man, this is already a good result." Ying Long looked at the information compiled by several people from the surveillance video tape of the hotel, and said with a sigh, "You all know his character, to be honest. , I was surprised to be able to keep these things.”

Since they had mentioned it many times, Yu Man was a very low-key person, so Ning Yuan did not express any surprise at what Ying Long said.

only……

Since he was such a low-key person, logically speaking, they wouldn't have tracked him down here.

What they said is that Yu Man is a person who doesn't like to bother others, and is thoughtful. If that's the case, he obviously wouldn't make the mistake of asking the travel agency to call to confirm the itinerary, so he left the contact number in the store, and It was not an accident, but a clue he left behind on purpose.

Ning Yuan had already analyzed this point with them on the way here.

"I think he either deliberately left us clues, or he didn't even think about it, and he couldn't go back this time."

At that time, Ying Long and Meng Xiu fell silent after hearing Ning Yuan's words.

They are more willing to believe the former than the latter possibility, but no matter what it is, they are not what they like to see.

According to the information in those videos, during this period of time in Huacheng, Yu Man left early and returned late every day, and the specific itinerary was Xishan.

It seems that he came here just to come to Xishan.

"Then when was the last time you saw him?" Finally, after reading the materials, Ying Long called the front desk of the hotel and asked.

Because the boss specifically told the front desk to fully cooperate with their investigation, but he didn't tell him the identities of these people, so the mortal front desk has been thinking, are these people some criminal police and what kind of case they are investigating?
And because Yu Man stayed in hotels alone, and he was good-looking, so the front desk naturally had an impression of him.

"The last time I saw him was when he left the hotel..." the front desk said, and began to check the housing records. Half a minute later, he pointed to one of them and said, "Look here, he was in October The hotel I left on the 13th, the last time I saw him was at that time."

"Then you saw him, is there anything special?" Ning Yuan glanced at the check-in time, raised his head and asked, "Any little detail is fine."

"..." The front desk fell silent after hearing his words, and said after a long time: "If it's something special, I remember...he didn't take the luggage?"

"No luggage?" Ying Long raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and turned to look at Meng Xiu who was beside him.

The latter immediately said knowingly: "He took his luggage with him when he left."

"Ah! Speaking of this, I remembered that the day before he left, he went out with a suitcase. I asked him if he wanted to check out, but he said he was out on business.

Later I got off work, so I don't know, but I wonder if he took the suitcase away that time, so he didn't bring anything when he came back? "

"Thank you, let's go back and study it again." Hearing this, Ning Yuan smiled and nodded at the front desk, then winked at the other two, turned and left.

By "research," he meant going over the monitors again to see what they missed.

On the other side, Qiongqi had already rushed out from the alley towards the fake Lu Shi and the others.

Yang Yang looked at his lightning-fast figure from behind, and couldn't react for a while.

On the other hand, Yuan Mu was obviously used to Qiongqi's character of saying that the wind is the rain, so he didn't show any special surprise.

"You take this." Yuan Mu took out a pocket watch from his pocket and handed it to Yang Yang.

The latter took the pocket watch and raised his eyebrows in confusion. This pocket watch looks very old, and it doesn't look like the old handicrafts that can be seen everywhere now.Moreover, what Yang Yang took out from Yuan Mu himself was basically high-quality goods.

But no matter how valuable this antique pocket watch is, it's not appropriate to put it at this time.He couldn't figure it out, why did Yuan Mu give himself a pocket watch at this moment?
But Yuan Mu immediately answered his doubts: "Do you still remember the snow globe we found you when you were kidnapped?

Lu Ax got a lot of inspiration from this, one of which is that the style of the magic weapon does not need to follow the ancient method, in this era, something that conforms to the modern aesthetics is what the magic weapon should look like.These are his exact words. "

Yuan Mu laughed when he said this: "When I left before, Lu Ax gave it to me. He said it was for you. I always forgot to give it to you."

"Give it to me?" Yang Yang picked up the pocket watch curiously and looked at it.

"Yes, it's for you." Yuan Mu nodded, and continued: "Didn't he promise you before that he would study some magical artifacts for you that don't require a lot of cultivation? Use electricity or something."

"That's right!" Yang Yang nodded and said, "Does he still remember? I thought he had forgotten it!"

"Forgetting is not forgetting, it's just that it's a bit difficult. So after he knew you knew the spirit gathering technique, he made this thing overnight and asked me to teach you."

Yuan Mu pointed to the pocket watch in his hand and said, "You don't have magic skills, this watch can help you when it's critical. Now you take this watch and go to Zhengxi to guard it."

"Zhengxi?" Yang Yang glanced at the nearby alleys, and then at the astrology above his head that he couldn't understand at all, feeling a little dazed.

"Yes, it's right there..." When he asked Zhengxi, Yuan Mu knew, he didn't know where the so-called Zhengxi was.

So he pointed to another alley not far away and said, "You just keep watch there. If they want to leave, you just take out this watch and put it on the ground to open it, and then silently recite the spirit-gathering spell." , and we'll take care of the rest."

After he finished speaking, he patted Yang Yang on the shoulder, and rushed out behind Qiongqi.

Yang Yang, who has always been belatedly aware of it, only said after leaving, "Oh..." as a response, and after realizing that both of them had already left, he picked up his watch and quickly ran to the place they had agreed upon before. .

It's just that because of the distance, and because of the barrier of the wall, he can't see the scene of several people fighting clearly, but this is a good thing for him.

After all, he is not Qiongqi, nor is he Yuan Mu.He is just a mortal, and with his current cultivation base, it is okay to deal with mortals. If he really meets the fake Lu Shi and the others, let alone helping, it would be nice if he can not hold back.

It's better to listen to Yuan Mu's arrangement and wait here honestly.

Thinking of this, Yang Yang pricked up his ears and began to hear the sounds of several people fighting.

Because of Qiongqi's advanced cultivation, when he went out from the alley, they actually didn't notice the fake Lu Shi.

Besides, although Qiongqi has always been rebellious, he is not stupid. He purposely and carefully bypassed some barriers, just to arouse the vigilance of those two as late as possible.He knew that after he left, Yuan Mu would definitely explain some things to Yang Yang, which he was not suitable to hear, nor did he want to hear.

To him, Yang Yang is just a human race that he doesn't hate very much, at best, he is a human race that Yuan Mu and the others value very much.

Although he didn't know why Yuan Mu and the others valued him, to him, none of this had much to do with him.

He just wanted to use Yuan Mu's hands to accomplish some things that he couldn't accomplish by himself.

As for Yang Yang, a small mortal, I don't care about it, and I don't need to care about it.Because for himself, he does not pose any threat.

It's just that, as Qiongqi said before, Lu Shi made a barrier at the place closest to them, and this barrier was not something he could bypass.So when he came to a place only five meters away from Lu Shi and the others, a barrier suddenly rose from the ground, blocking Qiongqi's way.

False Lu Shi and the others were taken aback by the sudden appearance of the enchantment, and then discovered the existence of Qiongqi.

Seeing the enchantment, the two of them had terrified and inexplicable expressions. For some reason, Qiongqi suddenly felt a little funny.So he laughed.

And the two people in the barrier looked at each other the moment they saw his smile.It seems that today's battle to the death is inevitable.

"Hahaha..." Finally, when Qiongqi laughed enough, he looked at the dazzling purple light and the buzzing sound from the barrier, and looked up at the two people in the barrier, He shook his hands and said, "Are you coming out by yourself? Or do you want me to go in?"
