Taoist

However, before Lingyuan agreed, two people flew up to the roof of the building and walked towards them.

Ling Yuan quietly blocked Yun Mo behind him, and looked at the two of them.

Seemingly seeing the vigilance of the mausoleum, the two stopped about two feet away, cupped their hands and said, "Don't blame me, fellow Taoists, my city lord would like to invite you to go over and talk about it."

He seemed to feel that what he said was a bit blunt, and added: "The city lord has no other intentions. You two must also know that the float parade was canceled this morning. The city lord just wanted to invite you to discuss this matter."

Ling Yuan was not surprised that the City Lord's Mansion knew his status as a monk. Although he didn't show it on purpose, he didn't deliberately conceal it either.If the City Lord's Mansion doesn't have this ability, Lingyuan will be suspicious instead.

But this doesn't mean that Ling Yuan has to obediently obey their words.

Lingyuan said: "The float parade has been cancelled, so what does it matter to us?"

The two looked at each other, and said: "This morning, two of the girls who were about to board the float were found to have been killed, and one was missing. Judging from the scene, it doesn't seem like ordinary people did it."

Fearing that the two of Lingyuan might misunderstand, one of them who was slightly taller hurriedly said: "Not only you two, but the rest of the monks in the city were also invited to the City Lord's Mansion to assist in investigating this matter."

It turned out to be a murder!

No wonder the float parade was cancelled.

"I'll go with you."

The few people traveled quickly, and arrived at the City Lord's Mansion in a short time.

When the two of Lingyuan arrived, there were already many people sitting in the main hall.

Lingyuan took a rough look at the past, counting him and Yun Mo, there were 13 people in total.

These people were talking to each other, when they saw Ling Yuan and Yun Mo coming in, the hall fell silent instantly.

Cultivators are keenly aware of other people's aura. Ling Yuan and Yun Mo looked young, but most of the people in the field couldn't perceive the depth of their cultivation.

The circle of monks is not too small, and it is not too big.Several well-known sects have a lot of movement among each other. If any sect accepts such a disciple, it is impossible for there to be no movement at all?

But looking at their clothes, they couldn't see anything that could indicate their identities, so everyone looked at me and I saw you for a while, but no one spoke first.

If they don't make a sound, it's even less likely that Lingyuan will initiate a conversation.What's more, he had already seen it, and none of these people was familiar to him.In other words, among the monks present, within a hundred years, the highest level would be Golden Core.

After all, in the last life, one of the characters above Nascent Soul counted as one, and Lingyuan had basically seen them all.

After figuring out the general strength of these people, Ling Ran sat down with Yun Mo at ease.

The lord of Furong City looks about 40 years old, with a refined temperament, and he is just an ordinary person, but the two guards around him seem to be of good strength.

"Everyone must know the reason why you invited the priests here today," the city lord stood up and looked at the monks. "Although I, Shan, am not a member of your Taoist sect, I know some of your monk's rules."

"One of them is that you are not allowed to attack ordinary people. This time, someone obviously broke this rule." After saying this, the mountain city lord said: "What's more, the Changxian girl who disappeared this time, I have already been favored by Feixianmen before, and I will go to Feixianmen after this Flower God Festival."

When the mountain city lord mentioned Feixianmen, everyone in the audience began to discuss.

Although they were a little shocked and dissatisfied with this incident before, it was impossible to say how much they cared.

Until this matter involved Feixianmen.

Although the girl Changxian has not formally started yet, in the eyes of these monks, she is considered half of the same way, and if she is rescued, it can be regarded as a goodwill with Feixianmen.

Different from other people, when hearing the name "Chang Xian" from the mountain city lord, Lingyuan immediately thought of the big devil in later generations.

Among the monks in the Nine Cang Realm, although it is inevitable that there are some fights and killings, but in the past hundred years, almost all the monks have been ashamed of this is the only one.

Chang Xian, known as the Blood Witch.

However, when Lingyuan learned of her name in the last life, she was already well known in the cultivation world. Lingyuan only heard that the blood-clothed demon girl was sexually violent, cruel and bloodthirsty, but she never knew that she was once a member of the Feixianmen. disciple?

Ling Yuan tried his best to recall some of the rumors he had heard before, and asked, "Have the other women been arranged?"

The owner of the mountain city didn't look down on Lingyuan because he was young, "It's only natural, people have already arranged for them to be protected."

At this time, a somewhat chubby monk stood up, "I don't know if you still remember, two years ago in Weicheng, something similar to a monk committed a crime. Only so many times.”

The chubby monk said: "I suspect that the monk who committed the crime this time has something to do with what happened in Weicheng back then. I'm afraid it was done by one person."

The other monks looked at him, and many people questioned, "Has something happened in Weicheng?" "I don't know..." The scene suddenly became a little awkward.

Fortunately, the fat monk didn't care, and sat down after talking about his speculation.

It can't be blamed for these people's reaction. They have never been very sensitive to the affairs of the mortal world. Even if monks are involved, everyone has a relatively indifferent attitude.

In the end, it's just because they don't care. The lives of ordinary people are not much different from ants in the eyes of most monks. Although the rules of the cultivation world stipulate that monks can't kill mortals at will, that's all.

Just like an ordinary person, you will not be bored to trample an ant to death, but you will not feel sad because an ant died.

This time it was that Chang Xian, with a slightly special identity, which attracted these people's hearts.

"Does the city lord have any clues?" Another monk asked.

The owner of the mountain city thought to himself, if I had a clue, I would send people to your master's gate to file a complaint, why would I invite you all over here?There was a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face, "I haven't found any clues yet."

Looking at the messy monks below, the mountain city lord didn't expect them to find the murderer right away, but he still had to do it.When the imperial court and Feixianmen asked about it later, he would have an explanation.

Feeling that the time is almost up, the city lord of the mountain said: "Then everyone, please go back first. If you find any clues, please tell the city lord's mansion. I will be very grateful!"

As soon as the Lord of the Mountain City finished speaking, the monks left in twos and threes.

A few of them even greeted Lingyuan, "I don't know where the fellow Taoist came from? How do you call it?"

"Lingyuan, it's just a casual cultivator."

Hearing that Lingyuan has no sect masters yet, many monks who have not yet left became enthusiastic, walked up to him and asked him if he would like to join their sect...

Ling Yuan was also a little speechless, and hurriedly took Yun Mo to get rid of these people.

It's just that he didn't leave, but took Yun Mo to find the mountain city lord alone.

"I don't know what's up with Fellow Daoist Ling?"

Ling Yuan cut straight to the point and said, "The Lord of the Mountain City just said that if you can catch the murderer, you will have a big thank you, right?"

Before seeing where the murderer was, he was asked directly about the bounty and so on. The Shancheng Lord's face was obviously not very good, but due to Lingyuan's identity, he didn't show it.

"It's natural! I, Shan, always count on what I say!"

Lingyuan smiled, "Dongzhu, I want the Dongzhu on the flower god's crown in the treasure house of the city lord."

The face of the mountain city lord became even worse in an instant, "The Flower God Crown has been lost a long time ago, even if it wasn't lost, it wouldn't be in my city lord's mansion. I don't know what Fellow Daoist Ling is talking about!"

Lingyuan didn't ignore the surprised and guilty expression of the Shancheng Lord when he heard his words, and he became more certain in his heart.

Hearing the city lord's denial, Ling Yuan didn't care. Most people wouldn't admit that this kind of secret was pryed into.

But Lingyuan knew that his goal had been achieved. He looked at the Lord of the Mountain and said with a smile, "Really? Maybe my news is wrong."

He didn't bother with this issue any more.

The mountain city lord looked solemn, and he looked at Lingyuan: "What exactly do you want?"

"Why should the city lord be so nervous? I don't have any malice towards the city lord, I just hope to get a corresponding reward after helping the city lord catch the murderer."

The mountain city lord looked at the mausoleum, his complexion difficult to distinguish, and said slowly: "It's best to be like this."

Lingyuan was not afraid at all, he was only interested in the East Pearl on the crown of the Flower God, and he was not interested in these things behind the City Lord's Mansion.

Watching the two of Lingyuan leave, a guard beside the city lord said, "Just let them go? It's just a casual cultivator..." This kind of casual cultivator who has no sect and no reputation disappeared in the No one in this world cares.

The lord of the mountain city stopped the guard's words, "It's better to be on the safe side. There are not many foundation-building monks at this age. They seem to have no background. If they are not complete, they are the geniuses of some family who came out to experience..."

I just don't know how much this Lingyuan knows.

The owner of the mountain city suddenly realized that he couldn't figure out the mind of a young man, and couldn't help being a little horrified.

This Lingyuan proposed to take the East Pearl on the flower god's crown. Did he really only want this East Pearl, or was he trying to test something?

Although this flower god crown is famous and seems to have a mysterious origin, it has been seen by Taoist masters a long time ago. It is an ordinary flower crown for women.Although Dongzhu is worth thousands of gold, it should be useless to a monk like Lingyuan?

The owner of the mountain city thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Although the mountain family he belongs to is a huge family, the main forces are in the mortal world, and they don't have much interest in Taoism. Monk?

After much deliberation, he was still uneasy, and the mountain city lord decided to report to the family.

After watching the spirit bird with the secret letter fly away, the mountain city lord felt a little relieved.
