At night, everyone settled down in a nearby small county town.There are not many disciples from Qingya Mountain, so they sleep in a big room.

The others had already fallen asleep, Ye Cheng was sitting on the couch by the window, looking at the moonlight outside, wondering what he was thinking.

Shi Sang came over: "Brother, are you worried about Fangze?"

Ye Cheng raised his head: "You suspect it's him too?"

It's not that Ye Cheng didn't notice the unexplained gazes of the people around him gliding past him.

Contrary to Ye Cheng's expectations, Shi Sang shook his head: "Senior brother, I believe in people's eyes. And Fangze did not do anything bad when he was in Qingya in the past."

In fact, Shi Sang didn't say the real reason.He doesn't know Ji Fangze, but he still remembers how that little brat who didn't like to talk to anyone back then, slumped his face every day, and looked at everyone with cold eyebrows, stumbled and grew up behind Ye Cheng.

He obviously hates eating with them, and usually doesn't bother to say a word to them when they meet, but as soon as Ye Cheng goes, he will obediently follow him.

In fact, Ji Fangze's situation in Qingya Mountain is not as dire as Ye Cheng thought. There are many young disciples who want to make friends with Ji Fangze, but his eyes will always follow Ye Cheng, and he will only smile at Ye Cheng .

Ye Cheng is indeed a good senior brother, but not everyone can be able to stay by Ye Cheng's side like a baby for ten years.

Shi Sang thought to himself, if there was one thing that Ye Cheng would hate if he did it, then Ji Fangze would probably not do it no matter what.

Ye Cheng smiled, but his heart was heavy.He touched the small shadow puppet hidden in his sleeve.

During the day, he has been paying attention to the content of everyone's discussion.

No one mentioned the word "shadow puppets".It appears that no one found the same thing in the village where the second one was killed.

Maybe it's just a coincidence, maybe a kid who likes cats made it on purpose, and accidentally left it outside.

In fact, it was ridiculous to say it, and no one would believe it, but Ye Cheng somehow felt that this cat looked familiar.It reminded him of the first time he pissed Ji Fangze off, and squatted in front of Ji Fangze's window in the middle of the night, performing a copycat shadow play.

Ye Cheng covered his eyes, and said silently: "What are you doing, children shouldn't be running around, this time we must beat him up if we catch him."

He still believed in Ji Fangze, but at the same time, he hoped that this matter would not have anything to do with Ji Fangze, even if it was a misunderstanding or passing by, it would be best not to. Dirty water splashed on the head is not so easy to wash off.

……

I don't know if he managed to escape, or he discovered the dangerous atmosphere around him, but the abyssal alien did not commit another crime.

Time passed day by day, but the atmosphere did not seem to ease up at all. On the contrary, as the news spread, all sects in the entire continent silently stepped up their vigilance, even the farthest ice field was the same.

The killing caused by the abyss is different from ordinary murder.The purpose of killing people in the abyss is to devour the souls of the human race, and thus become stronger and stronger.And those who are swallowed by the abyss can't even achieve reincarnation, they can only disappear completely in this world.

Raising one's cultivation base by devouring one's soul, although this kind of extreme evil heretic is rare, it is not unheard of in the cultivation world.Everyone is not too scared to fidget just because of this.The problem is that this is not a high-end demon technique with a narrow escape and harsh conditions, but the racial talent of the alien race in the abyss.

In other words, every alien from the abyss can do this.

Although there are a large number of human races, there is no one in a million who can practice, and among those who can practice, it takes an average of 600 years to produce a Nascent Soul cultivator.As for the lowest-level foreign race in the abyss, as long as they can eat and eat without stopping and not be killed by human monks, it takes about one year to rival Nascent Soul monks.

The abyss is suddenly opened.If it hadn't been discovered earlier, the cultivation world immediately launched a life-and-death bloody battle, and the sixteen real people used themselves as a guide to set up a large formation to seal the abyss, the world may have been captured by the abyss long ago.

Only 20 years have passed since the bloody storm back then, and the word "abyss" is enough to touch the nerves of the entire cultivation world.

Fortunately, everyone was quite relieved that the sixteen real people were still sitting safely in the forbidden areas of their respective sects, indicating that the barriers were intact.

Representatives of all sects arrived one after another, and a group of seniors in the cultivation world with actual combat experience observed the tragic situation of these two villages, and finally affirmed a conclusion.

It is a characteristic of the "cubs" of the abyss to eat a certain part of the human corpse as a way to devour the soul.This seemed to add to Ji Fangze's suspicion.

This is what Ye Cheng has been worried about. The murderer has never been found, but everyone's speculation about the murderer's characteristics is getting closer and closer to Fang Ze.

Because the two tragedies happened in the territory protected by the Yan family, and the Yan family also took certain measures to seal it off in time, the sects still preferred that the person did not flee far away, and sent people to temporarily stay in the Yan family.

Ye Cheng didn't leave either.

On this day, he wore his tattered straw hat and continued to look like a down-and-out knight, wandering around a few remote mountain villages nearby.Seeing that it was getting late, a junior brother rushed over suddenly: "Senior brother, I caught it!"

Ye Cheng was slightly taken aback.So fast?

That junior misunderstood Ye Cheng's silence for a moment, sneaked up and whispered, "I've seen it, it's not Junior Brother Ji."

Ye Cheng turned around and went back to Yan's house, walked outside the meeting hall, the man he caught happened to be taken down, Ye Cheng looked up, his appearance could only be regarded as passable at best, and he didn't see the meaning of being peerless at all.

"Are you sure it's him?"

Yan Changdong came out to meet him: "Yes. It is addictive for a foreign race to devour souls. That foreign race hid in the city and endured it for more than half a month. It probably couldn't take it anymore. He came out to hunt and caught a child. He just got him back. The family was about to eat, but the two elders of the Xuanyi Sect caught the stolen goods and got them."

Ye Cheng was keenly aware of the strangeness in it: "Such a coincidence?"

Yan Changdong squeezed his forehead: "It's not a coincidence, as soon as the two elders went out, a child sent a letter, which wrote the murderer's hiding place. The two elders think it's not far anyway, so let's go and see, who It turned out to be true.”

Ye Cheng was speechless.

"I also think this incident is strange. There are many things that don't make sense. But the few powerful people who stayed here have explored the spiritual sea of ​​that person. The alien who swallowed those two villages should be him."

As long as the real offender is caught, it doesn't really matter what's behind it.

Ye Cheng was inexplicably concerned about that letter: "Who's with that letter?"

"It's probably at the place of Senior Ning from the Xuanyi Sect, but I carved a copy with jade slips."

Saying that, Yan Changdong took out the jade slip from his sleeve and threw it to Ye Cheng.

Ye Cheng took a look at it, and froze for a moment, then turned around and left without thinking about returning the jade slip.

Yan Changdong was startled: "Ah Cheng, where are you going?"

Ye Cheng dropped two words: "Wander around!"

While speaking, Ye Cheng's figure disappeared like a gust of wind.The corner of Yan Changdong's mouth twitched, and he complained: "I believe in your ghost. It would be more realistic to say that you want to kill people."

When Ye Cheng came out of Yan's house, it was already dark.

He almost forgot to avoid the pedestrians on the street, his body was extremely fast, and his eyes swept over every passing person around him.

As time passed, the sky became darker and the people on the street became less and less.

Ye Cheng finally stopped at a street corner, feeling unprecedentedly tired.

These days, the Yan family has been secretly screening and checking people nearby, especially those who have just arrived recently. Since Fangze avoided this kind of checking, does it mean that he has changed his appearance and has lived here for a long time? So that you have a fixed identity and residence?

Does he know I'm here, but won't come out to meet me?

Even, it has been nearly an hour since the letter was delivered.Has Fangze left already?

Ye Cheng suddenly felt the shadow puppet in his sleeve.

Every city has a night market.As night fell, other places gradually fell into darkness and silence, but here it was still brightly lit and full of laughter.

In the night market here, there is an inconspicuous shadow puppet old man.

Others choose to set up stalls in lively and popular places, even shouting unceasingly, but he is crowded in a small corner, lighting up a few inconspicuous lanterns, and what is staged on the curtain is not geniuses and beauties, legendary romances, but Monotonous animals running and playing, accompanied by animal calls.Fortunately, there are not many entertainment activities at night this year, so there are only a few people watching.

Suddenly, with a clear sneer, everyone found someone blocking their view.

No one could see what was going on, a man with the appearance of a down and out swordsman was standing straight in front of the curtain.

Because the man was so aggressive that he was about to draw his sword to cut someone in the next second, so the original dissatisfaction with him disappeared all of a sudden. Everyone's eyes fell on the swordsman, and no one noticed The shadow puppets stopped.

Ye Cheng ignored everyone's gaze, and with a "bang", he threw the sword on his back on the table in front of the curtain, and looked around coldly: "He owes me money, I'll come and smash it."

As a result, the broad masses of the people dispersed in a rush, not forgetting to take their own small benches.In the blink of an eye, only Ye Cheng and the old man behind the curtain were left in this corner.

Ye Cheng snorted, didn't give the poor old man a chance to speak, and directly cut through the curtain with his sword, taking advantage of the situation like cutting tofu, and neatly used the piece that the old man had just laid down as a spirit stone for the eye of the array , cut in half.The teleportation formation that was about to be launched was interrupted at the last moment.

Ye Cheng swung his long sword across and blocked the person in the corner: "Go ahead if you have the ability."

The author has something to say: Poor Xiaofang, for Ye Cheng to overcome laziness and cancer, embark on the difficult road of saving the world, and still be arrested, scolded and arrested.

good night.
