Chapter 123 The Shadow
If he was really killed, let alone the city lord, he would lose his life!
"Give me a close look at her, and send someone to keep an eye out for the three people. Once they return to the city of music, they will report to me immediately!"

"Yes!"

*

At the same time, Jiang Li and the others were worried that there would be people chasing them, so they didn't dare to rest along the way, they rushed day and night, and finally arrived at Dafeng Village a few days earlier.

Dafeng Village is an ordinary village. Strange incidents have occurred frequently in recent months. The villagers were unbearably disturbed and reported to the prosperous city, and then reported to the Five Spirits Sect from the prosperous city, so they were allowed to come here.

As soon as Jiang Li and the others arrived, the village head led the whole village to greet them. As soon as they met, a large crowd knelt down to the three of them and shouted excitedly:

"Three elders, help! Help!"

The village chief knocked his head heavily on the ground, and the next second he felt a pair of cool hands supporting him.

"You get up first."

Jiang Li frowned unbearably, and with a light lift of her right hand, a force lifted all the villagers who were kneeling on the ground to their feet.

The villagers were all moved to tears, and there was hope on their desperate faces.

The three signaled everyone to go to the village, and asked about the specific situation in the village.

"It's like this. On a certain night a few months ago, Ya'er in our village returned from his grandparents' house to his own house, and just a few houses away, he just disappeared out of thin air."

"And the frightening thing is that he has a scalp and black hair on the road."

"That scalp was covered in blood, Ya'er's mother passed out on the spot, and after waking up, she became seriously ill and passed away within a few days!"

"Since then, strange things have happened frequently in our village. One by one, villagers have disappeared inexplicably. There are old people, children, and a woman who is pregnant with Liujia was lost a few days ago!"

"The villagers were terrified. There were only a hundred people left in a big village with hundreds of people!"

"We just suspected that there were monsters eating people, so we quickly reported it to the prosperous city, and we have been looking forward to the fairy elders to come to help!"

The village head trembled a little when he said this, his wrinkled face was pale, and the black bags under his eyes made him look terrified and exhausted.

Seeing Jiang Li and the three of them, he seemed to see a life-saving straw, and his eyes were full of hope again.

"From what you said, the village chief, it really looks like what a monster did, but why would a monster eat a mortal?"

Luo Qingzhou was quite puzzled by this. The world of cultivation has always been separated from the world of common people, and it is an unwritten rule that monks cannot attack mortals.

The same is true for monsters, and ordinary people have no spiritual power, even if they eat them, they are useless to monsters, and they may also attract divine punishment.

"Look, Immortal, the first tooth disappeared here!"

They arrived at the place where Ya'er disappeared in the first place, and there was still a puddle of dried dark blood on the ground, telling them that Ya'er had suffered an accident.

"We know, leave this matter to us. You lock your doors and windows these nights and don't go out. That guy will definitely haunt you again!"

Luo Qingzhou nodded, lowered his eyebrows, estimated the situation, and asked the villagers to leave.

"What do the two junior sisters think?"

He turned his head slightly and frowned tightly to ask the two of them for their opinions.

There were villagers here just now and they didn't want to say much, for fear of causing them to panic.

"According to the village chief's description, it is indeed very likely that monsters cannibalize people."

Su Yue frowned and pondered, squatting down to study the pool of blood carefully, scanning the pool of blood over and over again with her spiritual sense, wanting to see if there was any remaining breath on it.

Jiang Li stood silently, silently agreeing with this point of view.

This is indeed something that monsters might do. After all, monsters are hard to tame, so it is not surprising that they do such things that cannot be tolerated by nature.

"Then we'll lie in ambush in the village for the next few days, and then try to lure it out!"

After thinking about it for a while, Luo Qingzhou asked Jiang Li and the other two to affix a breath-holding talisman to disguise himself as a mortal.

Then I went to the village chief and borrowed some coarse clothes to put on, pretending to be a villager.

"I think in order not to arouse its suspicion, we still have to act as villagers for a few days."

Monsters are not stupid either, they may not be suspicious when they see a new face.

"Junior Sister Jiang is right, let's pretend to be a villager for a few days first, and then lure him out."

In the next few days, the three of them worked every day at sunrise and rested at sunset, and even pretended to be scared, no different from real villagers.

A few nights later, Jiang Li was walking alone on the village road timidly, and the slightest sound of the wind caused her to scream in surprise.

She looked back from time to time, her delicate face was full of fear, and she stumbled and fell because of nervousness.

"Ouch!"

Jiang Li fell to the ground, exclaimed in pain, and then cried out of fear.

"Woooooooo..."

She tried to get up with both hands and feet, but fell to the ground again because her feet were soft, and she was indescribably frightened and panicked.

Luo Qingzhou and Su Yue, who were lying in ambush in the dark, were surprised when they saw her like this. This acting skill is really realistic, and they will definitely be able to deceive the monsters.

Sure enough, before Ginger Quinoa got up, a black figure suddenly appeared, pointed at Ginger Quinoa on the ground and grabbed it.

Jiang Li's eyes flashed, she turned over abruptly, raised her big palm and slapped it upwards.

At the same time, Luo Qingzhou and Su Yue also rushed out from the shadows, launched an offensive and surrounded the shadow.

A dazzling fire flashed in the air, and the black shadow revealed its true face, making the pupils of the three tremble at the same time, and they were astonished.

Because that shadow is a person!

Sombra's black hair was matted and dirty, and it also covered his face.

He was not wearing any clothes, and everything was exposed outside, but his body was covered with dirty mud, which was equivalent to covering him up a bit.

Realizing that the three of them were not ordinary people, the black shadow uttered a strange cry, then turned and ran away.

The black shadow was as fast as the wind, and disappeared from the front of the three of them in the blink of an eye, and could only vaguely feel a burst of breath before moving away.

The three of Jiang Li were startled, and hurriedly followed. If he was allowed to run away this time, they would come out again next time.

Jiang Li turned into a gust of wind, and quickly followed the stench forward. She had reached the limit of her speed, but she still couldn't see half of the black shadow.

Her heart sank slightly, that black shadow might have extraordinary cultivation.

It's just why a monk would be reduced to cannibalism, which made her full of doubts.

Even evil cultivators who do all kinds of evil rarely prey on people.

Luo Qingzhou ran at the front stepping on the flying sword, and Su Yue followed closely behind Jiang Li. The two also exercised their body skills to the extreme, but Su Yue was not a wind spirit root, and his speed was slightly slower than Jiang Li.

The three chased closely in the dark, and within a few breaths they left the village and chased into the nearby mountains.
