The heavy rain came and went away quickly. Ji Changyue did not stay any longer and walked out of the cave with his sword on his back.

No one noticed her or cared if she left.

When Ji Changyue was about to reach her destination, her pace slowed down.

During the argument just now, she heard the man in colorful clothes calling the person beside her, Xu Zhou.

The surname is Xu. Is it the Xu she thinks of?
The Xu who turned Lin Chujiu into a puppet.

If the plot in the book had not been messed up, the young master of the Xu family would have died.

The young master of the Xu family died mysteriously. The master of the Xu family was heartbroken and recruited heroes to find out the truth about the death of his only son and avenge him.

Lu Qiling passed by by chance, uncovered the list, and entered the Hongmen Banquet set up for them by the Xu family together with many monks.

The reason for the death of the young master of the Xu family is unknown, but the master of the Xu family used this reputation to train all the monks into puppets like Lin Chujiu.

If he is really the young master of the Xu family, he should not live for a few more years.

Ji Changyue thought as a shadow passed in front of his eyes at a very fast speed, accompanied by a squeaking sound.

It was the gopher she was looking for.

A burrowing rat passed by, followed by a huge group, perhaps hundreds of them.

Ji Changyue rolled up the tree to hide her figure.

Gophers love to dig holes and usually hide underground. They appear on the ground in large numbers, which is very unusual.

Sure enough, behind the burrowing rats, a group of monks flew through the air at extremely fast speeds.

Ji Changyue hurriedly hid her figure until they were far away, then walked out from behind the tree.

Why are they hunting so many gophers?
The gopher rat is good at burrowing into the ground and digging holes. It is often captured alive and used to build underground palaces. However, it is a monster after all, inhumane and difficult to control.

Used on a large scale, it can cause chaos.

If it is a contract, the monks pursue combat power or defense, and the Drilling Rat will not occupy either aspect. The monks will not like it, and no one is willing to make a contract.

In the spirit of doing more than doing less, Ji Changyue suppressed her curiosity, did not follow him, and turned around to walk in another direction.

It was also difficult to find the Hesperia serrata, so Ji Changyue walked some distance deep, and it took half a month to collect enough.

Although he was injured, the mission was completed.

After finding the Echinacea, Ji Changyue was not going to stay in the Izumo Mountains, but was going to go out and look for the gophers in another place.

Choosing the Izumo Mountains is just that both things are in the Izumo Mountains, which is more convenient.

This isn't her only choice.

When the idea came to fruition, she sped up and prepared to leave before dark.

The Izumo Mountains at night, even on the outskirts, are not peaceful.

But her luck was really bad. A figure was like lightning, running fast, shouting as he ran.

"Help!"

And behind him was the sky full of red, overwhelming, covering half of the sky.

Ji Changyue's pupils tightened and she looked like a long-tailed bee.

When the man saw Ji Changyue, he shouted in surprise, "Fellow Taoist, I am Fu Chenghe from Danyun Sect. Please help me and I will give you the elixir!"

Ji Changyue wanted to curse, but she could do it with a few long-tailed wasps, but with thousands of them, what could she do.

Fu Chenghe's eyes were shattered when he saw Ji Changyue turn around.

The buzzing sound of the long-tailed bee was getting closer and closer. He grabbed a handful of elixirs and stuffed them into his mouth. He patted the talisman on his body as if he didn't want to lose his life, and kept a short distance away from the long-tailed bee.

"Fellow……"

As soon as he opened his mouth, a long-tailed wasp caught up and stabbed its tail needle into his neck.

The long-tailed wasp-tailed needle was like a steel needle, glowing with cold light. As soon as the needle went down, the bulge as big as a fist swelled up instantly, and a scream escaped from his mouth.Ji Changyue turned around and took a breath of air when she saw Fu Chenghe's miserable state.

The pain slowed him down a bit, and at that moment, more long-tailed wasps swooped over.

Ji Changyue was within a few steps of him. She waved two explosive talismans to block the long-tailed bees in the air.

The bodies of the long-tailed bees that were affected were charred and blackened, and they fell with a crash. More long-tailed bees came from behind, almost to the point of blocking out the sky and the sun.

Ji Changyue was speechless as he ran, how did he provoke so many long-tailed wasps.

Could it be that the long-tailed bee's ancestral grave was dug up?
The situation was urgent and he couldn't care too much. Jiuyou shouted in the sea of ​​consciousness, "Master, there is a stone pool ahead. The long-tailed bees are afraid of water. Jump in!"

Ji Changyue raised her eyes and saw that there was indeed a stone pool not far away. However, the water in the pool was as green as thick water, and even the bottom of it could not be seen clearly.

But now was not the time to be disgusted. Ji Changyue held her breath, took a few steps, jumped on her toes, and submerged herself in the pool.

Fu Chenghe's eyes, which were swollen into thin slits, moved and he plunged into the pool regardless.

The water in the pool splashed, but quickly returned to calm, leaving only gentle ripples.

The long-tailed wasp lost its target and buzzed on the water surface unwillingly.

Ji Changyue held her breath and let herself fall down, being enveloped by the pool of water.

His arm was suddenly poked several times. Ji Changyue opened his eyes and saw a big face swollen into a pig's head in front of him.

Ji Changyue punched out, but remembered halfway that this was a human being and stopped.

"Uh huh... huh."

Fu Chenghe's lips moved and his hands gestured desperately.

Following his line of sight, Ji Changyue turned around and saw what was in her line of sight. She clenched the sword on her back with her backhand, ready to go.

The human-like thing stood upright, with black hair flying like water grass, and was wearing a robe, like a disciple of some sect.

The robe was stretched out, bloated and ugly.

Ji Changyue swam closer, the tip of the sword parted her hair.

A face with rotten skin and black flesh appeared in front of her. Because of her movements, the flesh hanging from the bones fell apart.

dead?

Ji Changyue took two steps back, then thought that she was already in the water and couldn't escape, so she stopped.

Fu Chenghe swam to Ji Changyue and gestured, "He is not normal!"

Ji Changyue understood his gesture and nodded.

The corpse in front of me had binding marks on its neck. It might have been that someone had killed it and dumped it in a pool.

Ji Changyue had reached the limit of holding her breath. She took out the prepared water-proof beads from her palm and stuffed them into her mouth.

The water-avoiding beads were given to her by Lin Shiyi, and she could walk normally in the water for half an hour.

She didn't know when the Long-tailed Wasp above left, so she didn't use it directly at first.

At the moment when Ji Changyue was avoiding the water droplets, she froze when she saw Tan Di.

The Tan Di is very deep, and Ji Changyue is still far away from the Tan Di, but this does not prevent her from seeing a bunch of people piled up at the Tan Di.

Yes, people.

The corpses were thrown down randomly, stacked up and down in strange postures, with half-open gray eyes, which was eerie and terrifying.

Fu Chenghe also saw one hand grabbing Ji Changyue's sleeve.

Ji Changyue went downstream and saw more clearly that these corpses were different from the first ones he saw. Their skin was not rotten, rosy and elastic, and they died not long ago.

Moreover, looking at the marks on their necks, it can be concluded that the murderer is all the same person.

However, who would go to such trouble to kill so many people and then dump their bodies in a pool in the Izumo Mountains?
