Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 88: The City Lord's Concubine (30)
Shen Yao supported her chin with one hand and turned to look at Fu Hengyan who was not far away from her.
Coincidentally, they knew the missing person, who was Zhang Laosan’s youngest son.
Isn't it amazing? Even the occurrence of this incident made Shen Yao sigh, it is really no coincidence.
Who would have thought that it was just a chance encounter, and as time passed, it would not leave any impression in the long river of time.
You wouldn't have thought that we would meet each other so easily. We met again at this time, and judging from the cause and effect of the troubles each other encountered, it might be related to the temple accident.
"It seems that our journey will not be peaceful."
Shen Yao shrugged her shoulders and got on the carriage one after another with Fu Hengyan.
The escort team stayed here for half a day, and when the carriages and horses had enough rest, they immediately set off.
As for the missing persons in the convoy, the explanation given by the escort company was not unexpected.
It's because Zhang Laosan paid a different price. If he wants the escort company to be responsible to the end, he must earn spirit stones.
Fortunately, when the carriage left, the child who had been missing for half a day appeared again.
Although the man looked a little dazed when he was found, Zhang Laosan confirmed again and again that this was his son.
In the joy of recovering what he had lost, Zhang Laosan ignored some of the strange things about the child, stuffed the child into the carriage again, and drove to catch up with the escort team.
Fu Hengyan, who was sitting in the carriage, opened his eyes, looking extremely sharp.
Looking behind him through the thick wall, Fu Hengyan had an indifferent expression.
Shen Yao noticed that Fu Hengyan was different and asked in a low voice what was wrong.
Fu Hengyan pointed back and said, "Those things got in."
Shen Yao raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "Is it the child who disappeared earlier?"
Fu Hengyan nodded and shook his head, "The child is just a cover, the problem lies with the others."
Fu Hengyan's absolute sensitivity to demonic energy allowed him to easily locate certain people in the team.
This crude trick of concealing one's true intention would be seen through at a glance by any cultivator with a high level of cultivation.
What do they rely on now? You should know that although there are no Jindan cultivators in the team when they set out on this escort mission, there are a lot of cultivators in the late stage of foundation building or even the great perfection of foundation building.
In addition, the escort company has all kinds of strange props, and the demonic energy of the people who sneaked in was leaked, which should not be the case.
Just a moment after he finished speaking, Fu Hengyan's expression changed again.
Before Shen Yao could speak, Fu Hengyan stood up, walked quickly to the window and looked sideways, "The breath is gone."
Those who are addressed like this by Fu Hengyan must be the evil cultivators who have sneaked in.
The demon cultivator's aura has disappeared, and after ruling out the possibility of his leaving, the only thing left is hiding. The other party has a way to conceal the demonic aura!
Shen Yao walked up to Fu Hengyan and put her hand on his shoulder.
Shen Yao closed her eyes and opened them again, shaking her head. She was not as gifted as Fu Hengyan, and she hadn't felt anything from just now until now.
Without further discussing what had just happened, Fu Hengyan sat next to Shen Yao and put his arms around her.
Neither of them spoke a word, they just leaned against each other quietly.
It was not until Fu Hengyan spoke and told Shen Yao about what he had learned from the Tianjian Sect’s headquarters during his absence in the past few days, regarding the number and frequency of demonic energy outbreaks in various parts of Dongzhou.
It's surprisingly rare, and if you don't deliberately inquire about it, you will just ignore the matter.
Shen Yao pursed her lips and said, "But it's just a small Yueyun City and it's happening so frequently," which is completely inconsistent with the results of the investigation.
Fu Hengyan said in a low voice, "Someone is hiding something."
It's not just one person, but a group of people, or even a group of great figures with profound cultivation.
Shen Yao lay on Fu Hengyan's chest, listening to his gradually heavier breathing, and could understand Fu Hengyan's uneasiness.
But she had no solution. From the discovery of the evil spirit until now, even though Shen Yao herself was not smart, she could infer that this matter was not simple.
Although Luoxing County is the most remote county among the ten counties under the jurisdiction of Tianjian Sect, it is still within the jurisdiction of Tianjian Sect.
Just imagine, if the thing you are most worried about suddenly happens at your doorstep, who would be in a good mood?
Shen Yao patted Fu Hengyan's shoulder to comfort him and could only let him calm down on his own.
What else can I do? Any words of comfort seem pale and powerless.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I just think what the master said back then was right."
Back then, his temper was even more stubborn than that of his second senior brother, and he even performed the heroic feat of chasing an evil cultivator for thousands of miles.
Fu Hengyan couldn't help but smile. He didn't show any emotion when talking about these old things with Shen Yao, as if he was chatting about today's weather.
Shen Yao leaned in Fu Hengyan's arms and listened to what he said. It must be said that her impression and understanding of the matter deepened.
Shen Yao felt more and more that their fate was a coincidence. After thinking about it, she simply suggested that Fu Hengyan tell the escorts of the escort company the truth about the situation.
During a month's journey, it was impossible for Fu Hengyan to always keep his eyes on the team.
What's more, this team has a complex structure and a large number of members. Factors such as closeness and level of cultivation are all related factors that affect the harmony of the team.
Shen Yao didn't want Fu Hengyan to be too tired. If the sky fell, it would be the ancestors of Huashen and Yuanying Zhenjun who would hold it up. It was not the turn of a mere Jindan Zhenren to take the responsibility.
Fu Hengyan did not reject Shen Yao's suggestion. He waited until the convoy stopped to rest, then he went out alone. When he came back, he had calmed down.
Shen Yao looked at Fu Hengyan's expression and knew that things were going smoothly.
As long as everything goes smoothly, some things should be thrown away. One should take on things according to one's ability. Besides, Fu Hengyan has other responsibilities now. Shen Yao doesn't want to suffer from worldly views after entering the world of cultivation.
"When they rest later, the escort company's escort drivers will use excuses to verify everyone's identities.
Yao'er, you stay here, and I will go over and take charge."
Fu Hengyan held Shen Yao's wrist, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
As an upright person, in order to gain the trust of the escorts in the escort company, Fu Hengyan's most direct approach was to expose his golden elixir cultivation.
Moreover, the evil energy disappeared too quickly. Fu Hengyan could only locate the approximate range now, so they had to go over and check it one by one.
No one knew when the inspection would end, and Fu Hengyan felt a little uneasy.
Shen Yao held the back of Fu Hengyan's hand with her backhand, "Don't worry, I'll stay in the room by myself, and with the life-saving measures left by you and Master Luochen, nothing will happen.
It is Chengqi who has to do this. I am narrow-minded and do not want you to be in danger."
She didn't mind being described as short-sighted. After all, there weren't many people Shen Yao cared about in the cultivation world.
The Shen family is now far away in Yunwu, Beizhou, and the four children are under the care of their senior teachers.
Now that Fu Hengyan is the only one left by her side, Shen Yao wishes they could stick together forever.
But Shen Yao also understood that her cultivation was a burden to Fu Hengyan.
For dangerous situations like the one Fu Hengyan was involved in today, her best course of action would be to stay out of it.
This would ensure Fu Hengyan's performance to the greatest extent possible and also make himself much safer.
Fu Hengyan didn't say anything, turned around and took out a defensive formation from his storage bag.
It was dark inside the carriage, but in just a moment, Shen Yao was covered with various defensive measures.
Shen Yao:......
Fu Hengyan wanted to continue but Shen Yao stopped him. He thought that she was not an important person, so there was no way she could be in so much danger.
As it was getting dark, the caravan slowly stopped to rest.
Shen Yao did not get off the car, but sat inside the car and ate her spiritual meal.
Fu Hengyan got out of the car holding the sword in his hand and sent a message to Shen Yao to be careful.
Shen Yao smiled and nodded. After watching Fu Hengyan leave, she turned around and sat back on the couch, closing her eyes to rest.
Outside the window
Fu Hengyan has arrived at the front of the escort team.
"Real Person" "Real Person"
“No need to be polite”
Fu Hengyan waved his hand and looked at a jade box brought out by the escort.
"Master, there is a magic-testing jade plate inside, but it is difficult for me to do anything after it is opened. I hope you can help me then."
The escort holding the jade box is the backbone of the caravan, and everything depends on him.
The Demon-Testing Jade Plate is an oval-shaped magical instrument, somewhat similar to the Sinan Pointer.
The cultivator needs to keep his spiritual power running all the time in order to search for the demonic energy within the range covered by the jade plate.
The spiritual power consumed by the Demon-Testing Jade Plate is related to the coverage range. The wider the range, the more spiritual power.
The demon-testing jade plates carried by the escort company today are only the lowest-level magical tools.
The escort felt a little embarrassed, as he had not expected that the evil spirit that had not been heard of for many years would appear again. If it were not for the fact that Master Fu spoke so confidently (and he had the Golden Core cultivation level to support him), he would not have believed it.
Now that the demon-testing jade plate has been taken out, the escort just hopes that everything goes well and nothing unexpected happens.
But can we just avoid unexpected things if we don’t want to?
The escort held the demon-testing jade plate in his hand, and after the jade plate was successfully activated, it emitted a holy white light.
In the distance, the crowd that had already gathered was separated by the escorts according to the number of people.
"Master Escort, we don't need everyone to come out to arrest the suspect."
"Yes, yes, our identities were verified when we left the city. How could there still be criminals hiding here?"
"Well, I heard that he practiced some evil skills that could change his appearance."
"Huh! If it's so powerful, doesn't that mean we are in danger?"
"That makes sense. We should gather together. At least with the escorts here, the thief won't dare to act rashly."
"..."
Zhang Laosan listened to the conversations among the people around him and returned to the carriage with a heavy face.
Sun Tao's family and Zhang Laosan's family were sitting together for warmth.
When they saw Zhang Laosan coming back, they all asked him what had happened.
After Zhang Laosan told everyone the news he had heard, everyone looked at each other in shock.
Especially Zhang Laosan's wife, holding her lost and found little son Zhang Cong in her arms, looking cautious and careful.
No one said it, but everyone was looking at Zhang Cong who had been missing for some time.
Even Zhang Laosan himself was wondering whether the man who came back was his son.
"Everything just needs to wait for the escort master to come over and check. Don't think too much. I will go to the front and ask the escort master for information."
After saying this in a deep voice, Zhang Laosan stood up, lowered his head and walked away quickly and decisively.
The atmosphere between the two families became subtle. In the end, the Sun family left first, which made Zhang Laosan's wife feel relieved.
"father"
Zhang Laosan’s wife is just an ordinary person, and her qualifications of four spiritual roots are destined not to achieve much.
She has been married to Zhang Laosan for decades, and so far they have only two sons and one daughter.
Now she only has her youngest son by her side. If she loses this child, she will
"Don't worry, with the Third Brother and me here, Cong'er will never get into trouble."
Zhang Laosan's father's own Qi and blood have declined, and he has fallen from the great perfection of Qi training to the ninth level of Qi training.
But when he spoke, Zhang Laosan's wife still felt convinced.
She nodded and hugged the child tighter. Zhang Laosan's wife had no idea that in the darkness, the child's dark eyes in her arms became deeper.
“No, no, and still no”
“Next batch”
"No……"
Fu Hengyan stood in the distance, his clothes rustling in the evening breeze.
Zhaoyang Mountain is somewhat eerie and cold at night, but even with bonfires burning all around, the atmosphere remains the same.
The vast divine consciousness silently enveloped the area before his eyes.
With just a thought, Fu Hengyan could detect everyone's every move.
Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on the escort's forehead. The magic-testing jade plate in his hand, which was emitting a bright white holy light, had not responded at all. His heart was also lifted up and he couldn't let it go.
"No, no, next...wait!"
Suddenly, a warm yellow light flew out from the motionless magic-testing jade plate.
The escort widened his eyes and turned to look at Fu Hengyan who was not far away.
"Real people, with eyebrows"
Fu Hengyan teleported over, and before the escort could finish the rest of his words, he had already grabbed the person who was located by the Demon-Testing Jade Plate.
As expected, it was the child who disappeared in the morning, Zhang Laosan’s youngest son Zhang Cong.
She was only eight years old, with dark eyes without whites. Zhang Laosan's wife, who was running from a distance, was staggering, with tears falling from her eyes.
"Master Escort, you must have found the wrong person. My son is not a monster."
Zhang Laosan recognized the magic jade plate and immediately trembled with fear and knelt on the ground. Even though not all the escorts in the escort company had higher cultivation than himself.
Fu Hengyan looked at Zhang Laosan indifferently. He didn't say anything, but the escort company's escort master gave a brief explanation on Fu Hengyan's behalf.
After all, the demon-testing jade plate cannot be fake, and there is indeed demonic energy in this child.
The escort holding the magic-testing jade plate ran to Fu Hengyan and asked, "Master, do you want to continue the test?"
The people have been found, and the remaining crowd is showing signs of dispersing.
"Inspection"
Fu Hengyan carried Zhang Cong away, ignoring Zhang Laosan and others who were lying on the ground.
Escort: ...
The escort sighed and asked someone to help Zhang Laosan and the others aside, while he continued holding the jade plate and continued his work.
Seeing that the escort who had gathered them together did not leave but wanted to investigate further, the crowd could not help but argue a few words, but in the end they did not dare to make trouble and still lined up obediently.
Fu Hengyan turned his back to the crowd and looked at the child in his arms. Finally, he found a black spot on the back of the child's neck.
It is not accurate to call it a black spot, it should be a tiny round hole.
The thin black lines inside seemed to be alive, constantly emitting a disgusting smell.
Demonic energy!
