The corner of the magic path was dug by me [Rebirth]

"It does look a bit like it." Long Yuan calmed down and continued to ask encouragingly, "What else?"

Lu Ningchu shook his head, "Not anymore."

"There's nothing wrong with Du Yun's handling, and there's nothing wrong with their reactions. The miasma similar to the miasma associated with corpse worms, and the blood pool similar to the blood sea of ​​the Buddha are the only two things I can detect, and I can't give up. Doubts of doubt."

When saying this, Lu Ningchu had hesitation in his eyes.

It's not that he doubts Long Yuan, it's just that the pool of blood is too similar to the sea of ​​blood in the Buddha, so it's not certain that Long Yuan will be involved.

"It doesn't matter, you continue to talk." Long Yuan was as calm as if he was not the master of the Buddha's blood sea.

"The Daoist who was with Du Yun said that the Nascent Soul Corpse captured too many people, and they created a pool of blood when they didn't have time to eat. But I always feel that the logic is reversed. Why do they continue to kidnap when they can't finish eating? People? Isn’t the Nascent Soul ghoul’s behavior more like abducting people in order to create a pool of blood?”

Lu Ning paused for a moment: "If this is the order, then there will be a new problem. Ghouls are filthy and use the human body to move, and they don't have human wisdom. Compared with humans, ordinary ghouls have only instincts. Even if the Nascent Soul ghoul is different, its intelligence will not be much higher, at most it may be like a smarter cat or dog. How could a ghoul with low intelligence know how to build a blood pool in the first place, right? Someone taught it to be like this?"

This is to suspect that there is someone behind the ghoul.

Long Yuan showed a contemplative look, his eyes flashed suddenly, and he said, "If you haven't seen the miasma in the Great Wasteland, if you haven't thought of the Futu Blood Sea because of the blood pool, heard the analysis of Du Yun and others, and have preconceived notions, goodbye By the time they sort things out, will we stop doubting and think it's over?"

"I thought so too, but Du Yun and the others destroyed the ghouls and their lairs very neatly. If they were really with the Nascent Soul ghouls, it would be too bold. No matter how stupid the Nascent Soul ghouls are, At any rate, they also have the strength of Nascent Soul, and their highest cultivation is only Jindan."

Long Yuan tapped the table with his fingers: "In this way, there are only two possibilities, one is that there is another person behind the Nascent Soul ghoul, and his cultivation level is higher than that of the Nascent Soul, and the second is that there is more than one Nascent Soul ghoul , so even Du Yun and the others can be ruthless enough to sacrifice one to deceive others."

"But I don't know how to verify it." Lu Ningchu frowned and lay down on the table, feeling very distressed.

There is no evidence for the suspicion of miasma and blood pool, and Du Yun and others have no flaws.There is another person behind the Nascent Soul ghoul that cannot be found, and there are other ghouls that cannot be found by searching the mountains, which is equivalent to having no clues.

Searching the mountains will inevitably lead to the exposure of his and Long Yuan's identities. Given their current situation, the monks who crusade against them will come first before the ghouls are found.

Their identities are always a layer of shackles, and Long Yuan has no other choice but to pat Lu Ningchu's head and comfort him: "Wait. Anyway, we are not in a hurry to leave here. If there are really problems, we will sooner or later will find out."

Day two.

There was a big celebration in Luo'an city, and the remains of the Nascent Soul ghoul were burned in front of the people of the city.

Du Yun and the others did not leave immediately, one was to heal their injuries, and the other was to ensure that the evil spirits in the mountain had indeed been wiped out—there had been monks who thought that the evil spirits had been eradicated, but they didn't want to have a tragedy of evil spirits causing trouble after they left.

Lu Ningchu stared openly and secretly for several days, but he couldn't find anything.The people in Luo'an City also gradually began to go up the mountain again, earning a living, worshiping the gods, and there were no more cases of missing persons.

Everything was too peaceful, as if the previous suspicions between Lu Ningchu and Long Yuan were all paranoid fantasies.

Although a little unwilling, but in the face of the facts, Lu Ningchu could only let go of his doubts about Du Yun and others.

After he stopped trying to find out the flaws of Du Yun and the others, he put his mind back on finding Xiao Ani.However, this matter is also a grind, so we can only take it slowly.

After walking out of the alley again without finding anything, Lu Ningchu was inevitably a little downcast.Long Yuan dragged him to the street, trying to make him happy.

"Take a bite," Long Yuan coaxed softly, "Don't you like eating this very much?"

Lu Ning raised his eyes sleepily at first, and waited for Long Yuan to coax him a few more words before opening his mouth to bite the sugar cake that was brought to his mouth.

"Don't think too much." Long Yuan felt a little helpless, "You didn't say it yourself before, you can't rush to find Xiao An, if you really can't, just wait until she grows up."

Lu Ningchu hummed, plunged into Long Yuan's arms and acted like a baby.

"I'm so useless..."

This was due to the misjudgment of Du Yun and others.

Long Yuan pinched the back of his neck: "There's nothing wrong with being cautious."

The two of them were still on the street, hugging each other like this, which was really eye-catching.

"Okay, the snacks for those children haven't been bought yet, let's continue shopping."

"I want to kiss."

People came and went around, Long Yuan was taken aback, and discussed with Lu Ningchu: "Can we kiss again when we go back?"

"Not good." Lu Ningchu acted blatantly, "I want to kiss now."

Long Yuan tried to reason with him: "There are too many people on the street..."

However, he had just started when he was interrupted by a sudden noise in the street.

The source of the uproar was an idle boy, Lu Ningchu and Long Yuan would bump into him several times a day on the street.

"Big news! Big news! The city lord has a child with Mudan, the oiran of Mingling Pavilion! And the child is already three years old! Peony wants the city lord to recognize the child, but the city lord doesn't agree, and this is happening at the gate of the city lord's mansion!"

The oiran Peony is very strange to Lu Ningchu and Long Yuan, but to the people of Luo'an City, she is the former number one beauty that everyone knows.

Passers-by who heard the news immediately flocked to the City Lord's Mansion, talking endlessly at the same time.

"Peony? Didn't you say that Peony saved enough money to redeem herself?"

"Hey, what does this have to do with this matter! Can't you hook up with the city lord after you redeem yourself?"

"That's right, didn't you hear the little trumpet say that the child is three years old? Peony was redeemed almost three years ago. I thought she really relied on her own skills. Now it seems that she hooked up with the city lord. Only with the child can I get enough money to redeem myself.”

"Otherwise, what else could it be? How old was Mudan three years ago?! The most profitable age! Do you really believe that an oiran can save enough money to redeem himself when he is here! Even if he has money, the bustard may not be willing to let him go."

"It's not that the city lord is very fearful. The wife of the city lord told him to go east, but he didn't dare to go west. Now he and Mudan have a three-year-old child. The wife of the city lord must not overthrow the city lord's mansion?"

"Hey, so let's say, there's a good show to watch! Hurry up, hurry up, don't whine about it."

……

Ordinary people don't have much entertainment on weekdays, just talking about gossip and gossip about some "celebrities" is enough to have a lot of fun.The former No. [-] beauty, the city lord, and the city lord's wife are all the most famous figures in Luo'an City, and this gossip is naturally the top.

The enthusiasm for gossip overshadowed the curiosity about the cuddling of two strange men, the crowd passed by in a hurry, Long Yuan suddenly raised Lu Ningchu's face, and quickly pecked Lu Ningchu's lips.

"Are you satisfied now?"

The man's eyes were full of pampering, although Lu Ningchu hardly felt the kiss, but seeing Long Yuan's appearance, he still hummed reluctantly.

Of course, the reason why it was so easy to let the other party go was that he also wanted to go to the gate of the city lord's mansion to see the excitement.

When facing Long Yuan, Lu Ningchu's thoughts were almost written on his face. Long Yuan pulled him to join the crowd rushing to the City Lord's Mansion, and then relied on his body skills to come from behind and grab the front of the crowd.

In front of the city lord's mansion, I saw a woman wearing a plain skirt with her back to everyone, kneeling in front of the gate with a child in her arms, crying in a soft and pleasant voice: "Master City Lord, Peony knows that she came from a humble background and cannot be climbed up. My lord, I didn’t dare to hope for the vows of eternal love and life together. But Yunxi is your own daughter, even if you despise Mudan and now you are old, you still have to have your own child..."

Mudan hugged the child in her arms tightly, pressed against her head, and cried even more sadly: "If it is possible, Mudan doesn't want to make trouble like this... Peony is forced to become a person in Fireworks and Willow Lane, but this child Yunxi is innocent. Yes, it's innocent, Mudan really doesn't want to delay Yunxi because of herself, and she doesn't want her to be unable to marry a good man because of Mudan... Please, Lord City Lord, please do me a favor and recognize Yunxi..."

Hearing such sincere cries, the passers-by who had just come to watch the fun were quite moved, and they all felt sorry for the poor mother and daughter in front of the door.

"Although it's true that Peony's background is not on the stage, my own children still have to admit it."

"It's not necessarily that the city lord doesn't want to admit it. The city lord and Peony's children are already there, and they paid a lot of money to redeem them. The redemption of the oiran is a sky-high price. Do you think the city lord can have no sincerity? I think it's the city lord's wife who is obstructing it." , otherwise the city lord will marry Peony into the house and make him a child."

"The raw rice is already cooked, and Peony just wants to give the child a place. The child is innocent. Why should the wife of the city lord make such a difficult situation..."

"The city lord is not a good thing either. First he went out to have fun, but now he dare not even recognize his own child because he is afraid of his wife, you bastard!"

……

When the scolding against the city lord and the city lord's wife became more and more intense, only two "squeaks" were heard, and the gate of the city lord's mansion opened, followed by angry shouts accompanied by sharp whips.

"Who is talking nonsense!"

Through the open door, a woman in plain clothes walked out holding a long whip.This ferocious woman was naturally the wife of the city lord, and the city lord shyly followed behind like a quail.

Everyone fell silent.

The wife of the city lord coldly glanced at the crowd, then looked at Mudan, and sneered coldly: "You think this woman is really for the child? Not long after I lost my son, this woman came to recognize the ancestor with the child in her arms. Do you think she is safe? What is your intention!"

"Didn't she just see that my only son is gone, so she wanted to take advantage of it!"

"Ma'am, how can you spout blood..." Peony cried, "I have brought Yunxi here so many times, but I was driven away by you. I really have no choice but to make trouble like this..."

"Damn! I promised you that you can keep the child, but you don't want to! You just want to rely on the child to enter my house!"

"Yunxi is still so young, I really can't bear it... Madam, you are also a mother, how can you be so cruel..." Mudan walked forward a few steps on her knees, and raised her head full of hope, "Madam, please go ahead!" Alright, just let me and Yunxi go, I just want Yunxi to have a better life, and I promise I won't come to hinder your eyes... And brother Rong, you can also say something..."

I don't know what it was Mudan's words, or what kind of expression offended the wife of the city lord, she suddenly raised her hand, and actually gave Mudan a whip in public.

With a scream, the slender woman fell to the ground like a butterfly with broken wings, but even so, she still remembered to protect the child in her arms.

The whipping caused Mudan to turn sideways, and Lu Ningchu, who was behind her, finally saw half of the profile of the "No. [-] beauty in Luo'an City".

It is indeed a very beautiful face, and anyone who sees the pear blossom with rain will feel pity.

However, what surprised Lu Ningchu even more was that Peony looks very similar to Xiao An!
