After talking with Xiao Er, Li Jian couldn't help but worry.

When he first came to this world, the first person he saw was Du Rui, who was earlier than Xiaoqing.From the beginning until now, although Li Jian often complained about Du Rui, she was indeed very grateful to him.Now that he is missing, Li Jian is naturally worried.

What's more, it doesn't matter if an ordinary person disappears, Du Rui's cultivation base is extremely high.What kind of monster is so powerful that it can make such a master of comprehension disappear without a sound?

On the side, Qi Xiu seemed to have thought of something, looked at Li Jian and said, "Master, I know why you thought that little novice looked familiar last night. He has moles between his brows and the corners of his lips, his eyes are wide apart, and his nose is flat. His facial features , very similar to the friendly style of the first missing person."

"Yes. Could it be... that Feng Youyou has turned into a child?" Li Jian frowned, "If this is true, he will not only become a child, but also be controlled by others, or lose his memory. Because he and The other little novice has a strange expression on his face."

Recalling what happened last night, Li Jian couldn't help saying: "Before Feng Youshan disappeared, he also went to this Hanshan Temple, right?"

"Yes. Master Feng said that he is doing charity." Qi Xiu said, his eyes lit up when he thought of something.

Li Jian seemed to want to go with him, and hurriedly said, "Feng Youshan, senior brother, A Luo, and both of us went to Hanshan Temple. They all disappeared, but we didn't. I think the only difference... We were not there when Yuankong and the others were chanting sutras to summon souls."

At that time, Qi Xiu talked to Li Jian.Although the two had completely different thoughts in their hearts, they reached a consensus strangely.They were far away from the Hall of Compassion at that time, so they did not hear the chanting, probably because of this, they were not affected.

"So, maybe Uncle Du Rui and Junior Brother Aluo have both turned into children. Could it be...the orphans adopted by Hanshan Temple are not really orphans? Are those orphans transformed from adults? But there is a problem." Qi Xiu looked at Li Jian, "Hanshan Temple has been adopting orphans for some time. But Feng Youshan, who disappeared here the earliest, disappeared only half a month ago."

The question Qi Xiu mentioned is very crucial. Li Jian also thought about it for a while, and seemed to have finally thought of the key point, so he said, "Do you still remember that Master Feng mentioned yesterday that Feng Youhao only knew about it a month ago? Hanshan Temple. He was moved by the monks’ benevolent deeds at the time, so he got to know the monks in the temple and went there to do good deeds half a month ago.”

Qi Xiu understood what Li Jian meant. "So, the Hanshan Temple is fifty miles away, and the location is remote. The people in Jingzhou City didn't know it existed. A month ago, the monks came to Jingzhou to let others know of their existence and to know that they adopted it. There are a lot of orphans. Those orphans are around five or six years old, so people who go there and see them naturally feel that these orphans have been adopted for a long time.”

"Yes." Li Jian said, "Not only that, the number of orphans in Hanshan Temple is very large, far exceeding the number of missing persons in Jingzhou. Yuanjue they may have done this kind of thing in other places before they came to the countryside of Jingzhou. But maybe before, they did things It’s not so blatant. It only targets beggars and homeless people, so it was not discovered.”

After hearing this, Qi Xiu raised his eyebrows and said: "It should be like this. I just don't know why their actions suddenly became bold, even the cultivators of the Qingqiong Sect, they dared to move."

Li Jian frowned, also thinking about this question.At this time, hearing movement behind her, Li Jian turned around and saw two sisters, Leng Ruyue and Leng Ruxin, approaching.

Leng Ruyue took a step forward, looked at Li Jian and said, "Meet the real person. I don't know if you went to Hanshan Temple yesterday, did you find any results? I received a letter from the head master here. The magic breath here is getting more and more Strong. He has come here himself."

"This Hanshan Temple is very weird. Even my senior brother was trapped by them. They have made such a big move recently, maybe they are in a hurry to complete something. Apprentice——" Li Jian looked at Qi Xiu, "Let's go check it out together look?"

"Okay. Those monks are not high-level, the two of us are enough to deal with them." Qi Xiu said.

Seeing this, Leng Ruyue hurriedly said, "We two sisters are also going to help."

"It's not right. The two of you stay here." Li Jian said seriously, and told Leng Ruyue about his and Qi Xiu's speculation just now, and then said, "The truth of the matter now may be guessed by the four of us. The four of us If one person is trapped again, others will not know when they will know the truth. So, you stay here and take care of your master. In case Qi Xiu and I are trapped, you can tell others about the Hanshan Temple Question. Also, if we don't come back within two days, please inform Qing Qiong."

"Now that you know the real person, then you all should be careful." Leng Ruyue understood Li Jian's meaning, and immediately took a step back without saying much.

"But sister, I want to follow!" Leng Ruxin said.She glanced at Qi Xiu with some nostalgia, as if she admired him very much and wanted to take this opportunity to develop a relationship with him.

"No!" Leng Ruyue flicked her sleeves, "Your cultivation base is not high, you must not go and cause trouble!"

After listening to her sister's words, Leng Ruxin's face became paler and gloomy, and she gave her sister a hard look.

Li Jian had a panoramic view of all this, and thought that the personalities of the two sisters were consistent with those in the book.

But he didn't care about her at the moment, and immediately took Qi Xiu to Hanshan Temple without hesitation.

When they arrived outside the city, the two walked with their swords in their hands, and Li Jian also explained a few words to Qi Xiu. "Although those monks' cultivation level is not high, if there is a demon breath here, maybe they have something to do with the demon world. Be careful in everything, I will investigate secretly, and don't meet them head-on."

Qi Xiu naturally reassured Li Jian.

Qi Xiu stood on the Chengying sword, looking sideways at Li Jian beside him.

I saw him standing on the step lightsaber, shuttling between the white clouds and the breeze, as graceful as a dragon swimming, like a frightened bird.

Qi Xiu knew that he would never repeat the mistake he made three years ago when he faced the Nightmare Tapir King.

He will definitely protect his master.

When Li Jian and Qi Xiu rushed to Hanshan Temple, the building was empty, and all the monks disappeared suddenly.

Not only did they disappear, but they also took things with them.Hanshan Temple is empty, as if those monks never existed.

"Could it be that...Yuankong knew that the two of us were not trapped, and was afraid that we would rush over after we found out the truth, so he escaped early? It's unscientific. There are many monks and orphans here. How can they move so fast without even a trace? None left?"

Li Jian said so, and suddenly felt Qi Xiu bend his waist.

"What's wrong?" Li Jian quickly supported Qi Xiu.

"Master, I... I feel that the magic breath in my body is a little bit ready to move. It seems that it is being summoned. I don't think it's very good, people from the demon world may be nearby." Qi Xiu said, biting his lips, and then concentrated his hands on the spell. It's trying to suppress something.

——Could it be that the breath in Qi Xiu's body is really related to the devil?

Li Jian frowned, and put his luck on Qi Xiu's back, sending him spiritual power and helping him suppress the magic breath.

The magic breath cannot be easily perceived by humans, unless with the help of a special magic weapon.That Leng Ruyue's head master was able to sense the direction of the magic breath in the distant Cangyu Temple, it must be with the help of a magic weapon, it is impossible for humans to do it.In the same way, even though Li Jian and Du Rui had advanced cultivation, they could not detect the magic breath here in Jingzhou.

But Qi Xiu is different, he has a magic breath in his body, and the magic breath can be sensed by each other.When he was in the city, Qi Xiu was fine, but now that his situation is like this, it means that the magic breath here is getting stronger and stronger.

"Eh? There's the breath of an old friend... Who is it?"

Such a voice came from the ground, the voice was low, hoarse, and a little strangely charming.

After the sound, Li Jian felt the ground under his feet collapse.

Afterwards, Li Jianjian and Qi Xiu both fell to the ground.

The fall was so fast that Li Jian hugged Qi Xiu's waist without thinking about anything else. "careful!"

After Li Jian stabilized the figures of the two, he summoned the lightsaber.

Bu lightsaber firmly dragged the bodies of the two of them until they landed on the ground.

Now, what he saw was far beyond Li Jian's imagination.

On the left, a group of young novice monks were trapped by a magic circle. They looked blank, as if they didn't know what happened.

On the right side, the trapped monks seemed to be a few monks headed by Yuan Kong.

"Master, look, there are two children over there. Does the one closest to me look like Uncle Du? The one next to him is Aluo. It seems that these monks really don't know what kind of magic to use This makes them children." Qi Xiu said to Li Jian via voice transmission.

When Qi Xiu said this, he also looked sideways at Li Jian.

The two were too close at the moment, Qi Xiu could easily feel the heat of Li Jian's breath.

It was at this time that Li Jian realized that he was still hugging Qi Xiu.

Li Jian quickly let go of her hand, and followed Qi Xiu's gaze to look at little Du Rui and little Aluo, but she didn't see Qi Xiu slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

"That's true. But now it seems that this group of monks have been trapped here for some reason." Li Jian frowned, turned his eyes, saw that Yuankong's mind was clear, and walked towards him, asking, "You monks made those missing people? You turned them into children?"

Yuankong raised his eyes and glanced at him, but nodded his head openly, as an admission.

"Why?" Li Jian asked again.

Yuan Kong just said, "You know the truth is meaningless. We're all trapped here, we're all going to die."

Li Jian narrowed his eyes: "Who caught us?"

"Me!" The person who spoke came out, he sized up Li Jian, then looked at Qi Xiu, "Why...you have the aura of an old friend on you."

Qi Xiu didn't speak, but coldly held the Yingying sword across his chest. "Are you from the Demon Realm?"

Li Jian frowned and looked at the speaker.

This person has red hair and is dressed casually, as if he just wrapped a piece of black cloth around his body casually.

He is not as vicious as imagined by people from the demon world, on the contrary, he looks very good-looking.He walked on the ground barefoot, his white ankles contrasted sharply with the black cloth.He doesn't look like a demon, not even a man, his lazy and frivolous appearance looks like a woman who has just experienced a romantic relationship.

The man stared at Qi Xiu, then raised his palm, condensing into a cloud of black air.But he didn't attack, he just seemed to be feeling something.After a long time, he narrowed his eyes and smiled, and took a few steps forward barefoot. "I know who you are now. You are Qi Xiu, the fifth prince of the Zhou Kingdom. No wonder you smell like an old friend."

The author has something to say: Qi Xiu is the fifth prince of Zhou. Chapter 1 slipped and wrote "Third Prince", which has been corrected.Thank you~~ Do you like this article?
