The villain female supporting role is reborn, all the plots are gone
Chapter 40: Looking for clues and discovering clues
Su Xiaoxiao nodded thoughtfully, and deliberately mentioned the situation of the monks coming, "I see. Old sir, don't worry, I heard on the way here that there were monks coming to deal with it."
The old man sighed upon hearing this, and said in a trembling voice: "I don't know what kind of magic the monster used. The monks who came in to deal with it before disappeared one after another. I'm afraid the monks who come this time will be in danger again."
"Disappeared? Old sir, do you mean that all those monks who came to deal with the situation were abducted?" Su Xiaoxiao pretended to be confused and her expression was full of fear.
"That's right. It's probably too dangerous." The old man waved his hands with a sigh, as if he had already seen the tragic end of those monks.
"It's so scary. Old man, do you know when the monster will kidnap people?" Su Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to inquire about the time, with a hint of fear in her voice.
"It is said that they appear at night and kidnap one person every three or four days. A guard from the City Lord's Mansion was the first to be kidnapped." The old man's face turned very pale and his body began to tremble involuntarily.
"City Lord's Mansion? Where is your City Lord? He didn't even find it?" Su Xiaoxiao felt strange when she heard that. The lord of a city at least has the strength to build a foundation and should not allow monsters to do evil in the mansion.
"The city lord went into seclusion a month ago because his wife passed away." The old man said regretfully, his tone full of helplessness.
Su Xiaoxiao wanted to ask something else, but the old man looked anxious and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"It's getting dark. Forget it. Let's not talk about it anymore. It's been two days since the last time someone was kidnapped. It's too dangerous. If we anger the monster, it will come looking for you and me." The old man waved his hand and left in a hurry, as if something terrible was chasing him from behind.
Watching the old man's back as he left, Su Xiaoxiao felt helpless. She realized that the city had been shrouded in fear of the rumored monster, and the residents were living in fear, with everyone worried that they would be the next target of abduction.
In this dark night, there seems to be endless dangers hidden. What kind of terrifying power does the mysterious monster hide? Is it a monster or a man-made terror?
At this time, Su Xiaoxiao successfully sold all the spiritual plants and also completed the necessary inquiries. She decided to find a place to rest for a while and observe the development of the situation in secret.
According to the old man, the person behind the scenes often appears at night and captures one person every three or four days. Moreover, all the cultivators who came here to deal with this matter were captured. From this information, it can be inferred that this task was originally prepared for cultivators in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages. Therefore, it can be determined that the black hand behind this must have strength beyond the Foundation Establishment stage.
Su Xiaoxiao randomly chose an inn that looked good to stay in, but in order to better observe the movements of the town at night, she specially chose a room on the top floor. After all, night is the best time to hide danger and filth.
Su Xiaoxiao kept her eyes wide open all night, and hardly closed them, but she didn't notice anything unusual. But it didn't matter, there was still tomorrow night! She secretly made up her mind to stay alert and not miss any clues.
Su Xiaoxiao was just about to take a break when she caught a glimpse of another group of cultivators coming downstairs. They were wearing uniform clothes. They were not from the Xuantian Sword Sect but should be from other sects. Judging from their cultivation base, they were all above the Foundation Establishment Stage. There were three people in total, two men and one woman.
The three silly kids were also very brave. They told everyone they met that they were monks who came to deal with the monsters and wanted to inquire about the monsters' situation.
Soon people from the City Lord's Mansion came to pick them up. Looking at their leaving backs, Su Xiaoxiao thought with a sigh, three more cannon fodders.
Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself that they should be the three of them who will be captured tonight. She decided to stay put for the time being and observe the situation around these monks.
As night fell, Su Xiaoxiao hid at the highest point of the inn early, waiting for the person behind her to appear. As time passed, Su Xiaoxiao began to get impatient, but at this moment, she felt a strong breath.
Afterwards, she could no longer sense the situation of the three monks.
Seeing that she had lost control of the situation, Su Xiaoxiao turned to the system for help.
"Yun Duo, check where that breath is now!"
"Host, received!" Yun Duo immediately began to test.
"Host, this aura is now on a mountain outside the town!"
Hearing that the breath was now on a mountain outside the town, Su Xiaoxiao immediately restrained her breath, used her lightness skills, and chased in the direction of the breath.
Soon, Su Xiaoxiao stopped outside a cave. She found that the owner of this breath was a spirit beast, whose cultivation level was around the great perfection of the foundation-building stage.
This was beyond Su Xiaoxiao's imagination!
Spirit beasts attacking people? Impossible. It is absolutely impossible for ordinary spirit beasts to abduct humans and release their blood.
The spirit beasts are gentle in nature and kind to humans. They are the Beast Taming Sect’s partners in life and death. Over thousands of years, there has never been an incident of a spirit beast injuring a human.
The behavior of the spiritual beast in front of him was more like that of a demon beast!
But the aura it exuded told Su Xiaoxiao that it was a spiritual beast.
The most important thing is that unrecognized spiritual beasts will not appear in places where human monks are active, so this spiritual beast must have an owner.
To make a spirit beast do such a heinous thing, isn't its master afraid of backlash? Or has he gone crazy? And based on the spirit beast's cultivation level, it can be inferred that its master's cultivation level must be no less than the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Only those with great cultivation power can command gentle spirit beasts to do things that are against the will of heaven and earth.
Su Xiaoxiao did not dare to slack off. She restrained her breath so that not a single drop of it could escape. She then followed the spirit beast stealthily until it entered a cave.
She carefully approached the cave entrance and looked inside. It was dimly lit and looked very eerie. Su Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and stepped into the cave with courage. She was surprised to find that there was something else going on here - a huge stone chamber.
In the center of the stone room, there were a bunch of unconscious monks lying in a mess. Their faces were as pale as paper, their eyes were closed, and they seemed to have lost their vitality. Some of them were still wearing the clothes of Xuantian Sword Sect, and they were obviously the ones sent to deal with this matter. The three unlucky guys were tied up and thrown aside, and it was unknown whether they were dead or alive.
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes fell on a vessel in the corner of the stone room. There was some red liquid in it, which looked shocking. It was obvious that this should be the blood of the people who were abducted. Could it be that someone had been killed? Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but curse in her heart. This was simply insane!
However, at this moment, she did not dare to make any rash moves. After all, the mastermind hiding in the dark had not yet shown up.
The spirit beast didn't seem to care about all this. It hummed and groaned as it circled around the three people, looking clumsy and alert. It seemed that it was waiting for the master behind the scenes to come and hand these people over to be dealt with.
