You always wonder what you're doing as my Taoist partner

"Yes, I like it very much."

"Then... why did you intentionally hurt Jinbie's heart?"

"It's liking, not love." Jiang Li didn't feel guilty at all, he looked at the sunset in the sky, "I know Jin will be sad, I know she will be lost, but it is inevitable, if her life is all All rely on me, if there is only me in her world, this love is too heavy for me, I don’t want this kind of love, if she can only rely on me for everything, once I have a little love for her someday A little emotion, she will be especially sad."

"I'm not a saint. In fact, many times I'm very moody, and my temper is not good. I don't want to play the role of that gentle brother for the rest of my life. Can Junior Sister Bai Sheng understand?"

"I can understand a little bit." Bai Sheng nodded thoughtfully.

"It's good to understand a little bit."

"Well, in the future, the evaluation of Senior Brother Jiang Li... from scum to a higher level."

"Ascension to what?"

"Half scum."

"..."

Jiang Li couldn't hold back and stretched out his hand to twist her slender waist.

Chapter 43 Chapter 43 Clues

From the bottom of Xuantian Dao Jizong Mountain to Meihua Town on the map, there is actually a long distance.

Jiang Li's cultivation was at the early stage of foundation establishment, and Bai Sheng's cultivation was at the late stage of foundation establishment. Both of them were not strong enough to support their high-strength swords, so the most convenient way for them to travel was a carriage.

But if you go to Plum Blossom Town by horse-drawn carriage, you should spend a whole day there. There is a very prosperous town under the mountain of Xuantian Dao Jizong. There are several countries in Zhongzhou, and these countries will regularly offer offerings to the three major sects to ensure safety.

And it is precisely because of the enshrining of these countries that the three major sects will send disciples to help solve the troubles that ordinary people cannot solve.

Jiang Li is familiar with everything, he took Bai Sheng to the post station to rent a carriage, and hired a groom, and then sat in the airtight carriage with Bai Sheng, the space was quite large, Bai Sheng just sat opposite Jiang Li , Jiang Li leaned over and sat next to Bai Sheng.

"I'm carriage-sick." Jiang Li blinked at her innocently, and lay down on Bai Sheng's shoulder in the next second, Bai Sheng muttered, "I always feel that Senior Brother Jiang Li is lying to me."

"Junior Sister Baisheng's trust in me seems to be getting lower and lower." Jiang Li said quietly, then he took out a book and handed it to Bai Sheng, who took a look at the book, and it was written in beautiful , with a few words written in sharp fonts.

Romantic Swordsman!

"what is this?"

"I bought it when I was bored when I went down the mountain. It's a play book to relieve boredom on the road."

Jiang Li's body slowly slid down again. Fortunately, there was enough space in the carriage, so his head naturally rested on Bai Sheng's lap, "I want to sleep for a while."

In fact, in the space of the carriage, it would not be enough for the two of them to lie down flat. Bai Sheng stretched out his hand quietly and poked Jiang Li's face, but he didn't refuse.

Jiang Li occasionally showed such a naive and rascally look, but it just made people angry, as if pampering him was inexplicably very interesting, Bai Sheng picked up the book in his hand, and began to read it seriously stand up.

Soon she was attracted by the story, and gradually fascinated, the fluorite in the carriage was lit up, Bai Sheng took a handkerchief to cover Jiang Li's eyes, and she seriously flipped through the book in her hand for most of the night , Finished the first book, but the story is not over yet, she is a little bit unfinished, and Jiang Li happened to wake up at this very moment.

He sat up, stretched his waist, and slept particularly soundly this time, then he looked at Bai Sheng, "Junior Sister Bai Sheng, do you want to sleep for a while?"

"What about the story behind?" Bai Sheng stretched out his hand towards him.

Jiang Li scratched his head, "I bought half of this book back then."

Bai Sheng's eyes suddenly filled with resentment, one of the most hated things in this world is a broken dog.

She beat Jiang Li with her small fist, then moved her body, and then her head rested on his lap, Jiang Li pressed her head lightly with his hands, and whispered, "Go to sleep."

When Bai Sheng fell asleep, he boredly used his spiritual energy to outline the talisman paper and formation in the void. This is his daily homework, and it can pass a lot of time.

....................................

It was noon when Bai Sheng woke up, she sat up slowly, the sun outside the window was bright, Jiang Li lifted the curtain, and was looking at the scenery along the way, Bai Sheng moved to his side, looking at the tree outside the window.

"We'll be in Plum Blossom Town in one or two hours." Jiang Li said softly, Bai Sheng hummed lightly, then Jiang Li turned his head, "Junior Sister Bai Sheng is so close."

It was only then that Bai Sheng realized that the distance between her and her past had become so close unconsciously that when Jiang Li turned his head, their cheeks were so close together.

She stayed there, but Jiang Li didn't retreat, but said, "Junior Sister Bai Sheng's face is so soft...well, it's still a little hot."

Bai Sheng finally came back to his senses, hurried back to the original place, no longer looking into Jiang Li's eyes, but lowered his head, looking at her own hands, a little at a loss.

Jiang Li quickly changed the subject, "When we get to Plum Blossom Town, we can go to the homes of those who lost their children first, and find out when and where they were lost, and what they are all about. feature."

"Those evil cultivators should be planning to use a specific formation to sacrifice blood. The missing children are within the range of Meihua Town and those towns, and the base of those evil cultivators may be hidden nearby."

Jiang Li was silent for a moment, "But those children may have been sacrificed."

Bai Sheng was stunned for a moment. She had never been in contact with evil cultivators before. Most of her assessment tasks were about hunting monsters. Of course, she had heard of the methods of evil cultivators, but she had never personally encountered them. .

"If you're lucky, maybe a certain evil cultivator wanted to use a secret method to break through the realm, and that's why he captured so many children. Whether those children are still alive depends on luck."

Jiang Li's voice was slightly melancholy.

In these years, he always travels down the mountain. Evil cultivators are actually very common in many casual cultivators. They also look like normal monks. When they don't use exercises or fight with others, they don't see any difference.

Jiang Li had encountered evil cultivators before, and many methods of evil cultivators were particularly strange, and they were more difficult to deal with than ordinary casual cultivators.

After all, black eating black among evil cultivators is more serious, so their routines are also more insidious.

Jiang Li told Bai Sheng some common methods of evil cultivators, as well as how to identify them, and told Bai Sheng what he had seen and heard when he went down the mountain in the past. Bai Sheng listened carefully, time slipped away unconsciously, and the carriage finally stopped Next, Jiang Li and Bai Sheng also came to the entrance of Meihua Town.

Plum Blossom Town is a small town that is not prosperous, Xiexiu likes to pick this kind of place the most, because the news is relatively closed, that's why so many children have been lost, but it took a long time for the news to reach Xuantian Dao Jizong On the other hand, Jiang Li is very familiar with the process, first he casually found a passerby in the corner, then pulled him into the corner and asked where the mayor was at the moment.

The reason why he didn't directly ask people on the street was to avoid alarming others. Jiang Li had already changed into a dress with Bai Sheng in the carriage. What he gave Bai Sheng was a light purple ribboned cloud brocade dress that the rich ladies at the foot of the mountain liked very much. , while he changed into a white suit, dressed like a gentleman of a noble family.

After all, the clothes of the Xuantian Dao Jizong of the two of them are too obvious, and they will easily attract attention.

After explaining the reason to the old man selling candied haws who stopped him, the old man hastily named Jiang Li and Bai Sheng the place where the mayor lived. to the residence.

After a stick of incense, Jiang Li and Bai Sheng met the mayor. The mayor was an old man over half a century old, dressed in blue clothes. After the tricks were over, the old man leaned over and wanted to worship, but was supported by Jiang Li, "The most urgent thing is to find the place of those evil cultivators as soon as possible, those children may still be alive, and other cumbersome things will be avoided, please trouble the mayor to get those lost Give me the roster of the children, when they were lost, what they were doing when they were lost, and what are the characteristics of those children... tell me all."

Bai Sheng obediently followed behind Jiang Li, watching him deal with everything in an orderly manner, she couldn't get in the way, so she followed obediently, and soon the mayor, under Jiang Li's inquiry, took those children I told Jiang Li about the time and characteristics of the loss.

The lost children were all around ten years old, the oldest not more than 14 years old, both boys and girls. Jiang Li counted all these information. They were lost one after another within three months. A total of ten children were lost in Plum Blossom Town. Four children, and the mayor had already notified the higher cities almost immediately, and the higher cities were passed on layer by layer, and when they finally fell to the Xuantian Dao Jizong, it had been so long.

Most of the lost children are basically still with their parents, but when the parents lost their minds, they disappeared in the next instant, and some were lost in the middle of the night. The parents clearly hugged the children tightly, but when they woke up the next morning, The child disappeared for no apparent reason.

The most recent time was two days ago. The child of the family on the edge of the town was lost. Obviously, the parents had already hugged the child tightly in their arms before going to bed, and closed the doors and windows tightly. But after waking up, the child disappeared. Because of this, my mother was too sad all of a sudden, and got seriously ill and was bedridden.

Jiang Li silently recorded all these clues, and when all the clues came to mind, he stood up, "Please ask the mayor to take me to Hu San's family."

Hu San was the family that lost their child last time. It was an ordinary farmer. There were two children in the family. The lost one was a ten-year-old boy, and the three-year-old girl was safe and sound that night.

The mayor hurriedly led the way. He was obviously over half a century old and had gray hair, but he tried his best to walk quickly. Jiang Li and Bai Sheng followed behind her. I kept asking, "Those kids..."

Jiang Li was silent for a moment, "Don't expect too much."

"If the news could reach the sect earlier..." Bai Sheng couldn't help but said softly.

Jiang Li was silent for a moment, "The sect doesn't care."

Bai Sheng raised his head to look at Jiang Li, Jiang Li's eyes were very calm, he put away his usual cynical look, and explained to Bai Sheng, "The Zongmen just needs clues of evil cultivators, as long as they can eliminate the evil cultivators. I don't care about the life and death of those children. We are only here to search for clues. When we really encounter evil cultivators, our cultivation is not enough. Yinyu will contact the Zongmen, and the Zongmen will send monks with higher cultivation levels."

Bai Sheng hesitated to speak, it was the first time she saw such a serious Jiang Li, Jiang Li was still thinking about all the clues collected in his head, the mayor in front of him almost fell because he ran too fast , was stopped by Jiang Li, the mayor quickly apologized, Jiang Li shook his head, "It's okay."

Soon, they arrived at the door of Hu San's family. The mayor reached out and knocked on the door. The door opened quickly, and a middle-aged man with a dejected face came to open the door.

Chapter 44 Chapter 44 Rules

The person who came to open the door was Hu San, a farmer in the village, and the mayor quickly explained the identities of Jiang Li and Bai Sheng to Hu San.

Jiang Li noticed very keenly that there was a pale woman lying on the bed behind, holding the little girl in her arms tightly. Her face was not only pale, but her eyes were dull, and she was murmuring Thinking about something, after Jiang Li and Bai Sheng arrived here, her eyes slowly shifted to look at Jiang Li.

Hearing that Jiang Li is an immortal above Xuantian Dao Ultimate Sect, the sad look on Hu San's face suddenly turned into excitement. Before Jiang could leave his mouth, he knelt down and kowtowed heavily at Jiang Li a few times. Nodding his head, Bai Sheng was a little at a loss in the face of this scene, and lightly grabbed Jiang Li's sleeve.

"I ask the immortal master to save my child!"

He was obviously a strong middle-aged man, but his voice was extremely trembling. The wife behind him seemed to have heard it, and dragged her precarious body to get up from the bed, came to Hu San's side, and knelt down on the ground. On the ground, Bai Sheng hurried forward at this moment, and supported the peasant woman. Her face was pale at the moment, and she looked particularly haggard and thin.

"Two days ago, the morning your child was lost, did you smell a strange smell in the house?" Jiang Li asked seriously.

Hu San and his wife looked at each other, and then Jiang Li heard some sharp voices, which came from Hu San's wife, she said, "Flower fragrance! It's flower fragrance!! There is an inexplicably more floral scent in it!!"

Her voice was a little hoarse, as if she was afraid that Jiang Li could not hear clearly, and she repeated it several times. Jiang Li looked at her with tears in her eyes, and Bai Sheng supported her, trying to make her stand up, but the peasant woman knelt down. Sorry, I looked at Jiang Li with pleading eyes.

Maybe because he was their only hope.

At this time, Jiang Li couldn't say that there is a high probability that your child is in danger, so he lowered his head and murmured softly, "Flower fragrance..."

He was silent for a moment and said a name.

"Blood Soul Sect."

Bai Sheng came back to his senses, looked at Jiang Li, "Blood Soul Sect?"

"The Blood Soul Sect used to like to use this method. The scent of flowers is their favorite fragrance. Ordinary people will fall asleep when they smell it. It can also be used to manipulate the spirit of ordinary people."

Jiang Li looked at the hysterical peasant woman in front of him, and he took out a Shenshen Pill from the storage ring and gave her, "Eat this, and your health will be better."

Then Jiang Li looked at Hu San, "Give me the one thing your child comes into contact with the most."

Hu San hurriedly stood up, thought for a while, and quickly found a small wooden horse from the cabinet. His eyes were red, "This is a wooden horse I made for my child. The child likes to play with it on weekdays. Fairy Master, this wooden horse..."

"I don't have time to explain to you, mayor, take me to the next family that lost their children."

Jiang Li put the wooden horse away, then looked at the mayor, he and Bai Sheng had just moved when Hu San and his wife behind him kowtowed deeply on the ground, looked up at him, and kept murmuring, "Immortal Master, save my child! Master Immortal..."

"I'll try."

Jiang Li didn't have time to appease their emotions, so the mayor hurriedly took him to the next family that lost their children.

Bai Sheng followed Jiang Li, and asked, "Brother Jiang Li, this wooden horse..."

"Look for more of the underclothes of those lost children, I might find a way to find where they are now." Jiang Li lowered his voice in the second half of the sentence, so that the mayor who was walking in a hurry could not hear.

"If they're still alive."

....................................

Jiang Li gave the mayor a elixir to restore physical strength, and the mayor took them for a long time to walk around the whole Plum Blossom Town, Jiang Li got many of the most personal things for those children, maybe clothes, or Some toys, and then Jiang Li brought Bai Sheng to the mayor's courtyard. He placed them on the ground one by one, then took out some blood ink from the storage ring, and the few remaining ones. Lingshi began to draw a formation in this open space.

Seeing the concentration on Jiang Li's face, Bai Sheng didn't bother him. Jiang Li's expression was very serious. During the process of drawing the formation, his face also turned slightly pale.

When the formation was finally drawn, Jiang Li heaved a sigh of relief. Bai Sheng saw that Jiang Li's body was a bit crumbling, she hurriedly supported Jiang Li, and looked at the formation that was already lit up in front of him, "What is this?"

"A formation for finding people."
