After coming down the mountain, I was pampered by two emperors!

When the yellow sand dispersed and the moonlight shone on the land, Long Jiaojiao and the other two began to prepare for action.

They watched carefully from the tree. Today was the third day since the last sacrifice. They did not have much time left. It would be a very difficult task to capture Chi Heng in the remaining three days.

Their mission today is to get rid of the four men in black, so the success of tonight's operation is particularly important.

Just after midnight, the palace gate suddenly opened, and then the four people walked out of the palace. They seemed to be walking outside the courtyard to conduct a normal inspection as usual.

Apart from Chi Heng, there are only these four people guarding the Devil City. However, they are not worried that the other ghosts will escape when they go back, because ghosts dare not go out during the day and at night the entire Devil City is like covered by a big net and no one can escape. In other words, you can come in, but you can't go out.

Their patrols are simply to see if these ghosts are gathering or colluding with each other. If so, they will take these ghosts back and wait for the next sacrifice to be dealt with according to the rules.

After seeing the four of them slowly walk out of the yard, Long Jiaojiao and the other two came to the palace. They looked towards the snake king's eyes, and sure enough, they were a little different from what they saw during the day. The snake king's eyes were not only bulging but also emitting red light. Long Jiaojiao took out her silk handkerchief, tore it in two pieces, and threw it with her hand, then fixed the silk handkerchief on the snake king's eyes.

"We'll wait for them here until they come back."

The three men hid behind the pillars. About an hour later, the four men in black walked in from the yard. At this time, the moonlight outside just shone into the eyes of the Snake King. One of the men in black looked at the first pillar in front of him, and he was obviously a little surprised.

He looked at the other three people, and the other three also shook their heads. Then, the man in black standing at the end walked out of the palace and looked up at the sky.

"Are you curious why the pillars can't be opened?" Faced with Shu Rong's sudden voice, the four men in black were obviously at a loss. At this time, Mei Xichen and Long Jiaojiao also closed the palace gate and surrounded them inside the palace.

Next, the two sides engaged in a fierce fight. Long Jiaojiao and the other two actually had no idea where these four people came from, and naturally had no idea how strong their internal skills were. However, they had no other choice but to fight hard. At least if they got rid of these four first, the remaining Chi Heng would be easier to deal with.

So the three men did not dare to underestimate the enemy and started fighting with them.

However, what surprised Long Jiaojiao was that except for one of the four men in black who had some powerful magic, the rest of them were at the same level as Tu Su. They were simply no match for Long Jiaojiao and Mei Xichen. It didn't take long before the three men in black with weaker magic were defeated and beaten to a pulp by Mei Xichen and Shu Rong, lying on the ground unable to move.

After Mei Xichen sealed their acupoints, he asked Shu Rong to watch over the three of them, while he and Long Jiaojiao went to deal with the most powerful man in black.

With the help of Mei Xichen, the last man in black was soon captured.

Mei Xichen grabbed his collar and dragged him between the other three people while pressing his acupoints.

Long Jiaojiao walked forward, took a long breath and asked them, "Where is Chi Heng? Tell me."

Several people shook their heads and no one spoke. Shu Rong tore off their masks, squatted in front of one of them and continued to ask: "If you don't speak, you will die."

Several people remained silent.

Shu Rong was very angry when he saw this. He pinched the jaw of the man in black in front of him and wanted him to speak, but the moment the man in black opened his mouth, he found that his tongue had been completely cut off, which caught Shu Rong off guard.

He pinched the jaws of the other three people and looked at them, and saw the same thing.

"Long'er, they have lost their tongues and cannot speak." Shu Rong said with great regret.

Mei Xichen grabbed one of them by the collar and brought him to the center of the palace, where the painting was.

"Is Chi Heng in here?"

The man in black nodded first and then shook his head.

"Tell me quickly, is it in here? If you don't, I will kill you." Mei Xichen took out a dagger and pointed it at his neck.

"Yeah, yeah." Although this person couldn't speak, he made some sounds with his mouth and kept nodding his head.

"Does Chi Heng only come out during sacrifices?" Mei Xichen continued to ask.

The man in black nodded again.

"How did he get in?" The man in black shook his head desperately, as if he didn't know.

Then, the other three men in black also shook their heads.

"It doesn't matter, we will know it eventually, but we can't keep these people." Then Shu Rong killed all three people around him.

"We only leave you here, do you know why?" Mei Xichen looked at the man in black who was trembling with fear.

He shook his head and knelt on the ground begging for mercy.

"We want to pretend to be the Men in Black, but we are short of one person, so we need your help. But don't worry, if we can capture Chi Heng, we will not kill you but take you and those ghosts to the underworld. Are you willing?"

After hearing this, the man in black nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.

"Okay, then it's settled." Mei Xichen brought him to Long Jiaojiao and continued to seal his acupoints. He then cleaned up the scene, took off the black-clothed man's clothes and handed them to Shu Rong.

"Shurong, why don't you go take a shower?" Mei Xichen said with a wicked smile.

"Why me? I won't go."

"It's okay if you don't go. You don't want Long Er to wear clothes that smell like a man, dirty and smelly, do you?"

"Mei Xichen, you..." Shu Rong threw one of the items to Mei Xichen.

"Whoever washes his clothes should wash them. I'll wash Long'er's." After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.

In the next three days, Long Jiaojiao went to Uncle Zhong's cabin. They brought the man in black there and explained to them that they wanted to keep him there. After all, the man in black was also afraid of light, so the dark and humid environment in the cabin posed no threat to him.

Long Jiaojiao briefed Uncle Zhong on their battle situation over the past two days. After all, they needed to fill everyone with confidence and believe that they would be able to get everyone away from here.

He asked Uncle Zhong to pass this information to everyone.

"Ms. Long, how are you going to deal with Chi Heng?" Uncle Zhong asked with concern.

"We want to wait until his priest shows up, because we haven't found any clues about him in the palace. We don't know where he is hiding or what mechanisms he has." Long Jiaojiao said frankly.

"Oh, then is there anything we need to do?" Uncle Zhong asked again.

"Just do what you normally do and don't panic. Leave the rest to us." Mei Xichen instructed while standing aside.
