But there were only immortal cultivators in the Sunset City, and not a single mortal. This made the two people who had become accustomed to seeing mortals everywhere a little uncomfortable.

But think about it, such an extreme climate is indeed not suitable for mortals to survive, but this makes the mortal costumes specially prepared by the two people somewhat incompatible with other people in the city.

The monks in the city were all coming and going in a hurry, with serious expressions on their faces.Not knowing what was happening in the city, the two simply found the largest inn in the city and wanted to find out the news.

The innkeeper is a mortal through and through.

Seeing that although the temperament of the two of them did not look like ordinary people, but their clothes were different from those of the immortals, he thought that they just came from good families. After hesitating for a moment, he still persuaded: "You two are from other places, right? Now The city is not peaceful, except for the immortals who dare to move around, we ordinary people dare not go out, for fear of making... unhappy and risking our lives."

When Ye Jiyu heard this, she realized that the inn was indeed well-informed. She followed the shopkeeper's words and said, "Ah, my brother and I traveled all the way to the far north. We originally wanted to rest in Sunset City, but it's hard to go back now. . Shopkeeper, can you tell us what is going on here, so that we can have an idea?"

Seeing that the two of them were strangers, the shopkeeper sighed and said, "Girl, you and your brother are still young, so you should leave as soon as possible. I can't say much more. If I weren't older, everything would be here." , I won’t bite the bullet and stay here until today.”

The waiter who was sweeping on the other side glanced at the two people who looked embarrassed, and then lowered his head.

Xie Wuqi did not move, but he had a clear view of the waiter's movements. Looking at the shopkeeper who was still persuading him, he said with great sincerity: "To be honest, we went to the far north to find medicine for our elders. Once you've reached this point, it's impossible to turn back. There's no other place to stay for hundreds of miles apart from Sunset City. In this kind of weather, traveling at night is like risking death."

Ye Jiyu glanced at Xie Wuqi calmly. This guy was telling lies more fluently than she was now.

The shopkeeper agreed with what Xie Wuqi said. After all, the closer you get to the far north, the colder the weather becomes. If you are traveling at night in this kind of weather, you may freeze to death if you are not careful.Feeling their filial piety, the shopkeeper explained a few words vaguely: "Then you can stay here for one night and leave immediately tomorrow morning. Don't go out if you have nothing to do. When you encounter someone wearing a black robe, lower your head immediately. If you can hide, Then hide, if you can't hide, I can only blame you for your bad luck."

Ye Jiyu felt something was wrong when he heard the man in black robe, but the shopkeeper refused to continue and left the counter after checking them in.

If it is really a demonic cultivator, then the shopkeeper’s fear is normal, but how could a demonic cultivator appear in such a small town?

As soon as they came out of the Tongtian Tower, Ye Jiyu asked Elder Xu whether there was a demon cultivator in the Jade Spirit Realm, citing the encounter with a demon cultivator in the tower.Elder Xu categorically denied it, saying that the Jade Spirit World had never heard of a demonic cultivator running rampant.

Although he didn't know why he was so sure, many people said that they had never heard of the existence of demon cultivators in the Jade Spirit World.

I don't know if it has anything to do with the "sheepfold" mentioned by Fu Shu.

What are the identities of these men in black robes? Can these monks who come and go in Sunset City be unable to do anything to them?

The two of them stayed in the inn and planned to go to the city to explore the city after nightfall.

Soon night fell, and the already quiet town became even more silent.The snow had stopped at this moment, but the moonlight was completely covered by thick clouds.Jumping from upstairs to the courtyard of the inn, Xie Wuqi was extra cautious. He went around to the waiter's residence, but there was no one inside.I'm afraid he and Ye Jiyu are the only two people in the entire inn now.

"How credible do you think the shopkeeper's words are?" Ye Jiyu casually looked around the room and found nothing special.

Xie Wuqi shook his head: "Do you think the man in black robe is a demon cultivator?"

When Ye Jiyu heard the word "black robe" at first, he did think for a moment that he had met a demon cultivator again. However, when he thought about it again, it was unrealistic that if he was really a demon cultivator, it would be unrealistic for a mortal like the innkeeper to open a shop here so calmly. After all, Mo Xiu always likes to pick on the weak.

But if they weren't demon cultivators, then where had all the mortals here gone?

Xie Wuqi silently took out a small insect from his storage bag. It was only the size of a grain of rice and glowed faintly in the darkness.

Ye Jiyu asked with his eyes: What is this?
Xie Wuqi turned his palm upwards, and the insect slowly flew up and flew directly out of the inn.Xie Wuqi chased him with Ye Jiyu and said, "These are the tracking powder and taste-seeking insects I asked for from Hong Ye before I went out."

Ye Jiyu was completely convinced by Xie Wuqi's storage bag, so he might as well change his name to Baobao Bag.

Perhaps because of the cold weather, Xiao Chong's movements were somewhat slow. The two followed Xiao Chong all the way around, and finally came to a deep and narrow alley near the city gate. There was an inconspicuous restaurant at the end. Houses.

The little bug circled outside the house a few times and then disappeared silently.

Ye Jiyu looked at this private house. It looked ordinary on the outside, but if you look closely, you can see that there is an extremely inconspicuous barrier outside the door.Xie Wuqi has always been good at enchantments. He broke the enchantment in a short while and sneaked in with Ye Jiyu.

After entering the door, they didn't find any special arrangement, but it was not the structure of a private house. After passing through the layers of covered doors, the two finally found a strange pattern at the bottom of the wall pillar on one side of the main hall. Although the shape was complicated, it After simplifying the complexity, we found that the base is just a petal.

Ye Jiyu looked at the petal, and Fu Zhi took out the mark given to them by Fu Zhi and put it on.The moment the mark was put on, the floor of the main hall suddenly disappeared, and the two of them fell straight down.

It didn't take long before they hit the bottom, and they fell into a dark tunnel.The moment they stood up, the entire tunnel suddenly became brightly lit.The shopkeeper and waiter whom he had seen before appeared in the tunnel, bowed slightly to them and motioned for them to follow.

Although Ye Jiyu didn't understand what kind of organization this was, it didn't look like it was malicious, so he followed it calmly.

The tunnel was so long and winding that Ye Jiyu even wondered if they had built a maze underground, because after entering the tunnel, the shopkeeper only said one sentence: "Dear guest, please follow and be careful."

Xie Wuqi looked at the shopkeeper who was always calm. He was indeed an ordinary person with no sign of cultivation at all.Why would this authentic master ask a mortal to do something?Once suspected or caught, wouldn't it be impossible to resist?
Xiao Xie: Let’s just say, is it possible that the skill of telling lies means that the person who is close to the ink is black?
