`It was completely dark when they arrived at Yizhuang, and there was only an old man guarding Yizhuang. The dim candlelight made the inside and outside of Yizhuang feel strangely eerie.

The old man was wearing old plain clothes, his back was a little hunched, and there were deep scars on his square face, which made him look very scary.

Seeing Di He, the old man stepped forward and bowed with a smile: "Sir, you are here."

Di He nodded and said softly: "Old Qiantou, is there anything unusual in Yizhuang recently?"

"No." Old Qiantou shook his head and smiled: "There is nothing abnormal."

He has scars on his face, and when he smiles his whole face becomes wrinkled, which can make a child cry.

Tang Jiao and Lu Changze followed Di He in, feeling a cold and cold shadow following them. Yizhuang was a house that had suffered a massacre in the past, and it became Yizhuang because no one wanted it.

However, Lao Qiantou kept the place very clean, and there was still a smell of medicine in the dark room. Tang Jiao immediately took out a Qingxin Pill and took it.

She is pregnant, and the smell of this medicine is like mugwort. If she smells it too much, it may lead to miscarriage. Qingxin Pill can prevent her body from being affected.

Lu Changze also smelled it and felt relieved after seeing her take the medicine: "You can wait outside."

"No need, I'm fine."

Tang Jiao shook her head and did not listen to his words.

Lu Changze planned to fight quickly and followed Di He to a big house.

The room was dark, and as soon as she walked in, Tang Jiao raised her hand in the air, and lighting fireflies appeared out of thin air, illuminating the entire room as bright as day.

Di He and others opened their eyes wide in shock and looked hard at the lighting fireflies. They didn't understand what they were that could emit such a bright light at night.

Lu Changze and Tang Jiao saw countless skeletons placed on the long table. The fishy smell was pungent and nauseating.

Gnaw marks and burns can be seen everywhere, showing that he suffered great pain during his lifetime.

Old Qiantou stood aside and said with great respect: "These are the bones that were pulled back."

Tang Jiao took out a mask and put it on to block out all smells, and followed Lu Changze forward.

The bones were scattered in a mess, skull, hand bones, hair, and feet.

Di He frowned slightly and sighed, and said in a deep voice: "When I first got it back, I asked all the people to put it together, but they couldn't put together a complete skeleton. Alas, it's really pitiful."

So he must find out who killed innocent people so indiscriminately and give them justice.

Lu Changze glanced over and placed his index and middle fingers in the center of his eyebrows. His eyes were slightly closed, and a faint light overflowed from the bones, like stars rising from the sky.

Di He opened his eyes wide and exclaimed: "What is this?"

Tang Jiao said: "It's the remnant soul of a person."

Lu Changze let go of his hand and looked at Tang Jiao: "Even the soul was devoured, it must be the work of someone who practices evil arts."

"Oh." Lao Qian slapped his head and looked at Tang Jiao and Lu Changze with admiration on his face: "Are you two the legendary immortal cultivators?"

My dear, the old man’s eyesight has been opened today.

Di He smiled and said: "Indeed, this is the immortal cultivator invited by the Crown Prince."

"It's great. With you here, those who have passed away can rest in peace."

Lao Qiantou looked at the corpse in front of him with deep emotion.

He has never had any children in his life, and has always worked in the government office. He has seen countless cases, but he has never seen such a tragic disappearance case.

The number of people and the tragic death conditions are truly horrifying.

Tang Jiao looked at Master Di and said, "Sir, can the Kongyue Sect have a branch here?"

"Never." Mr. Di has also heard of the Kongyue Sect, and even asked someone to investigate: "The headquarters of the Kongyue Sect is actually in a neighboring country, not here, and the hands should not be able to reach this long."

Lu Changze looked at Tang Jiao: "Let's go, there's nothing left to see?"

"Ah."

Tang Jiao held the lighting firefly and followed him outside.

After they left, Lao Qian kowtowed in the direction where Lu Changze and Tang Jiao left, and kept chanting the word "god" in his mouth.

The next morning, Tang Jiao and Lu Changze left the house after breakfast. They wanted to walk around to see if there was anything unusual.

Liangzhou City has many merchants from the Western Regions and is rich in products, especially minerals and fruits such as grapes. People here have various accents.

The two of them had ordinary faces and did not attract anyone's attention. They looked like two wealthy and idle people out for fun.

With Tang Jiao in his arms, Lu Changze seemed to be shopping, but in fact he was shopping around every corner.

When she was tired from walking, she sat down at a small stall next to her to rest. As soon as Tang Jiao looked up, she saw a group of people in black clothes walking in front of them, with strange patterns painted on their foreheads.

The leading man was tall and had a big, ugly scar from his neck to his ear, which looked unpleasant.

He turned his head and asked the boss next to him: "Boss, who are those people?"

When the boss saw clearly the person she was pointing to, his expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly said softly: "Madam, please don't point randomly. These are people from the local gang Yitang. These people are vicious and powerful. They are the local snakes in our area."

Lu Changze asked the boss to bring him a bowl of noodle soup and helped Tang Jiao take out the chopsticks to wipe them clean: "These gangs can be found everywhere, and there are more in Jiangnan."

It's just a mob, Lu Changze will not take it seriously.

"Here comes the noodle soup." The boss was very quick, brought it and said with a smile: "You two guests, please use it slowly. If you are not full, we can add more noodles."

Just as Tang Jiao picked up the bowl, a scream came from behind. She turned around and saw a little flower seller being kicked to the ground by the scarred man. Bright flowers were scattered all over the ground.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Another girl knelt down in front of the man, kowtowing desperately, her voice trembling: "My sister didn't bump into you on purpose. Please be noble and let her go."

The scarred man spat on the ground, kicked her away with contempt on his face, and stepped directly on her chest: "You vile thing, get out of here."

He raised his foot and kicked her away and left arrogantly.

The girl ignored the pain on her body and came to her sister to help her up.

Tang Jiao tightened her grip on the chopsticks and her eyes fell on the solid wood sign outside the restaurant at the corner ahead.

Just as the man passed under the sign, the originally stable sign suddenly fell and hit the man directly.

"what!"

The signboard hit the scarred man's legs directly, and screams echoed throughout the street.

Tang Jiao heard the sound of bones breaking and nodded with satisfaction.

Very good, this injury will require him to recover for at least a hundred days, and the people on the street can live in peace.

"Hall Master, Hall Master."

The scarred man's subordinates hurriedly stepped forward, lifted him up with all their hands, and ran to the nearest medical center.

Lu Changze saw what she had done, smiled fondly, and poured the remaining noodle soup she had eaten into his bowl.

Tang Jiao put down her chopsticks, turned around and gave the copper coins to her boss: "Boss, I want to ask you something. Are there any suspicious incidents happening around here, other than disappearances?"

Upon hearing this, the boss immediately shook his head and sighed: "People in the city are in panic now. There are no suspicious people anywhere. Look at the streets, there are far fewer people."

Thinking of the notice posted by the government office, the boss's face was filled with sadness.

Alas, they are all human lives.

"Thank you boss."

Tang Jiao smiled and left with Lu Changze.
