Chapter 137
Ma Chong chased for more than a hundred miles yesterday, but he still failed to catch Ye Guyue and completely lost his track.

This was also expected by Lu Jun, after all, Ma Chong turned back halfway, enough for Ye Guyue to escape.

"I remember Ma Tutou said that Ye Guyue's cultivation would be greatly damaged by that blood escape secret technique, and now he is only in the enlightened state?"

"Not bad." Ma Chong nodded.

"Then I can rest assured." Lu Jun laughed and said, "For him, recovering his skills is more important than killing me."

"That shouldn't be careless, you'd better stay here for a few days, we'll search again and make sure it's safe before we go on the road." Ma Chong persuaded.

"With Ye Guyue's cunning, I'm afraid he is the same as in Jianghan. Instead of taking refuge here temporarily, it is better to leave quickly while he is recuperating." Lu Jun said.

"Then don't be in a hurry to leave today. Today is New Year's Eve. We have to talk about it after the New Year." Ma Chong said.

"Walk in the rivers and lakes, and be home everywhere, why stick to the New Year?"

Lu Jun arched his hands and said: "Ma Tutou, thank you for your care recently, see you in the future."

Seeing that he insisted on leaving, Ma Chong sent Lu Jun away and told him to be more careful on the way.

Lu Jun bid farewell to Ma Chong, rode out of the city, and headed east.

All the way through the village and the village, there are firecrackers everywhere, and the scene of joy.

Lu Jun couldn't help thinking that when his father was still there, he was just like those children running around happily, every new year was full of joy.

"Daddy, where are you and mother? I'll go find you after I remove the demon's life-seeking seal!"

Thinking of this, Lu Jun wished he could fly to Nanlu Academy with wings on his back.

Without the shackles of the prison cart, the thousand-mile horse galloped vigorously, and arrived at Nanling, the Jiaozhou prefecture, in just two days.

When you arrive at Nanling, you can turn eastward by water to Jingzhou, which is the fastest way.

It's a pity that today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and the shipping has stopped. Lu Jun asked several companies, but they were unwilling to sail.

Fortunately, with a heavy reward, there must be a brave man. Lu Jun finally moved a boatman with five times the boat price and good words.

The family name of the boat is Li, a very simple family. Father Li Laosan and son Li Tiezhu take turns in charge of the boat. Mother Wang is in charge of the food on board and can travel day and night.

Li Laosan smiled and said: "Young man, you can blame me for being greedy, the time is really not right."

"It's New Years, as it should be."

Lu Jun didn't care about the cost of the boat, as long as he could get to Nanlu Academy sooner, and it was Chinese New Year, so it wasn't an exaggeration.

"Thank you, Shaoxia, for your understanding. In fact, your five times the boat price is really not much. Yesterday, there were people who wanted to take the boat on the first day of the Chinese New Year. No one wanted to go if you paid ten times the boat fee. In the end, the old man was greedy for money. The guest officer left." Li Laosan said.

Lu Jun only thought that he was comforting himself, but he didn't believe it. After a few casual words, he entered the cabin to practice on the pretext of being tired.

Sailing along the water, the boat travels very fast, but it takes only one day to leave the jurisdiction of Nanling. If it is by land, it will take three days to travel, no matter how good the horses are.

On the second day, Lu Jun was meditating in the cabin, when he suddenly heard Li Tiezhu's surprised voice: "Father, isn't that the old man Zhang's boat? He left yesterday. How did he come here? Could it be that it broke down?" ?”

"Really!" Li Laosan shouted to the cabin: "Young man, let's stop for a while and go over to see if we need help."

Hearing this, Lu Jun walked out of the cabin, and he saw a boat docked by the river. There were no people on board, and there was wilderness nearby, which was really strange.

"Okay, let's go and have a look, and help if you can." Lu Jun said.

The boatman approached the boat, and before he got close, Lu Jun smelled a faint smell of blood.

He opened his spiritual ears to listen, but he didn't hear any sound, and his eyes narrowed involuntarily.

The boatman didn't realize it yet, so he leaned over and shouted: "Old Zhang, what's the matter, is the boat broken?"

The distance between the two boats was still Zhang Xu, so Lu Jun jumped up and landed firmly on the opposite boat, opened the hatch, and was stunned by the scene in front of him.

In the cabin, there were five corpses, two men, two women, and a seven or eight-year-old child, all with shriveled bodies, as if they had been sucked dry of blood.

Lu Jun clenched his fists violently, as if his eyes were about to burst into flames, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's the devil's way again!"

A row of red letters flashed in front of his eyes, but Lu Jun didn't even look at it. He turned around and left the cabin. Even if the system didn't issue a mission, he still wanted to find out this ferocious magic way.

Li Laosan approached the boat and asked, "How are you, young man? Why are you so angry?"

"You'd better not look at it."

Lu Jun returned to his boat and stopped Li Tiezhu who wanted to board the boat to check.

"Young man, what's the matter?" Li Tiezhu asked puzzled.

Li Laosan realized that the situation was not good, and asked tentatively: "Young man, it's not possible, they encountered water bandits, right?"

"It's worse than water bandits." Lu Jun asked with a serious face, "Is there two men, two women, and a young child in this family?"

"what?"

The three members of the Li family all screamed, and Wang said: "Yes, yes, the old couple and his son and wife, the child is his grandson, they..."

Wang didn't dare to ask.

Lu Jun nodded, proving that her guess was correct, Mrs. Wang fainted from fright, Li Laosan hugged his wife quickly, and Li Tiezhu also stepped forward to help.

"Let me do it."

Lu Jun walked over, and with a burst of genuine energy, Wang Shiyouyou woke up, and immediately burst into tears, and the father and son hurriedly comforted him.

Lu Jun patted Li Laosan, and said, "Uncle Li, please tell me, what does the man in Zhang's boat look like?"

All five members of the boat family died, only the boat passenger was absent, and he was the most suspected.

"That man is around forty, with a sallow complexion, half a head taller than me..."

"Yeguyue!"

Apart from his appearance, the figure described by Li Laosan was very similar to Ye Guyue's, so Lu Jun thought of him first.

"Okay, Uncle Li, take a boat down the river immediately and report to Tiance Mansion in the nearest county. Tell them that there are demons killing people, and Wan Ren sent Lu Jun to chase the murderer first." Lu Jun said.

Li Laosan was so frightened that he hurriedly agreed to come down, and sailed away, while Lu Jun returned to the cabin and began to investigate the scene.

Sure enough, apart from the wound on the carotid artery, the corpse had no other scars. It should be that the acupoints were tapped and the blood was sucked alive.

The corpse was no different from a mummified corpse, it was difficult to deduce the time of death, but Lu Jun had a keen eye to help, and quickly deduced that the time when the murderer left the boat was at dawn yesterday.

There are no traces on the shore, indicating that the murderer did not land here, but let the boat drift on its own, and finally ran aground here.

Counting it, more than a day has passed, and it is not known where the murderer landed, so it is very difficult to catch him.

"Whether you are Ye Guyue or not, no matter how difficult it is, I will find you!"

 Thanks to Mr. ID Chen and Hao Fengshao for their rewards.
