The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

Chapter 156: Strange Things in the Theater (4)

After knowing the location of Ziyun Inn and saying goodbye to Xu Shan, she continued to look for clues in the city. At this time, she still hoped that Gong Yu was by her side. After all, he was good at the Five Elements and Gossip and calculating Yin and Yang. Now she was searching alone in such a big city, which was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Now the only clue seemed to be that she was invited to watch a play, but she didn't know where the stage was.

She used her spiritual power to sense many of the places with the heaviest yin energy in the city and investigated them one by one. The secret book given by her junior uncle mentioned that the eye of the ghost formation is usually in the place with the heaviest yin energy, and the place where yang gathers can disperse the yin energy, so as long as she detects in the place where yang cannot gather, she can mostly narrow the scope.

She found three or two abandoned houses in the city that were filled with extremely gloomy energy. After entering, she searched through all the drawers and cabinets but could not find anything that looked like the eye of the formation. As the agreed time was approaching, she had to return empty-handed.

She returned to the place where she had parted with the two of them.

While waiting for people, it was sunset. Mu Hanxing looked up and felt that the scenery in the city seemed subtly different. At dusk, there were no clouds in the sky, and all she could see was the same orange-yellow color without any blur, as if the sky had suddenly turned into dusk. She had just been concentrating on finding the eye of the formation and had not had time to carefully observe the changes in the sky. Now that she looked carefully, she felt there was something subtly weird.

……

After waiting for a while, the two came back as promised. Jing Chen successfully got the orchid grass sold in the city's medicine shop. The herb was temporarily kept by him. Feng Xiao found two people wearing the uniforms of Wenxin Sect disciples.

However, the two men looked cautious and followed Feng Xiao doubtfully. From a distance, when they saw Mu Hanxing, their expressions changed instantly and they drew their swords.

"Mu Hanxing! Are you still alive?"

Judging from their attire and appearance, and based on the information she got from Tang Huanyun, she guessed that these two people were Cui Ren's disciples, Lin Yifeng and Lu Yusheng. They naturally didn't want her to be alive, so they drew their swords to fight the demon without thinking.

She said coldly: "Thanks to your master, I am alive and well."

The two were puzzled, not knowing whether she was a human or a ghost. They stood there in a daze, not daring to move. Feng Xiao beside them interrupted with dissatisfaction: "I said with good intentions that I would take you out of the city, but you drew your swords against me. Then you will stay here for the rest of your lives."

"Ah? Come on, sir, which side are you from?" Lu Yusheng quickly panicked and asked hurriedly.

Feng Xiao raised his cold eyes and said, "I am from Fuyue City, what do you think?"

The two were stunned and swallowed their saliva before they realized that this handsome young man in luxurious and gaudy clothes was from Fuyue City... Looking at his face... Could he be her male lover?

The two looked again and saw that there was another person next to them. He looked cold and noble. He had his hands in his sleeves and closed his eyes to rest. It seemed that he didn't care about the situation at all.

The two men were not stupid. They knew that these two men were most likely Mu Hanxing's male favorites. Now they couldn't gain the upper hand with three against one, so they simply put away their swords and said angrily, "You have the signs of being possessed by a demon. The head of the sect said that it is better to kill a thousand people by mistake than to let one go. That would be irresponsible to the people."

If you want to fight for power, then fight for power. Why talk nonsense? As far as she knows, Cui Ren is not such a person. Tang Huanyun told her before that when Lu Xin was in charge of the mountain gate, Cui Ren had intentionally or unintentionally led his disciples to rebel. Now, only these disciples believe these nonsense.

Mu Hanxing was too lazy to argue with them, and said seriously: "I am now returning to Wenxin Sect to take care of important matters in the mountains. I heard that Sect Leader Cui and the others have been trapped in Xicheng for several days and Elder Tang was very worried, so he sent me to help. Why, don't you need me?"

The two were stunned. They had indeed been trapped here for several days. They tried all kinds of techniques to break the barrier, but no one could do it. When it comes to this kind of techniques, the previous Master Lu was more proficient in it. Mu Hanxing was his disciple, so it was natural that he was more likely to take them away.

"But why did you come to rescue? Where are the other disciples?" Lin Yifeng asked.

Jing Chen finally opened his eyes. He said lazily, "It's because others were afraid of danger and didn't want to come, so City Lord Mu came."

"What?" The two of them opened their eyes wide and felt a chill in their hearts. How could they, fellow disciples who had been together day and night, just watch someone die without helping?

Lu Yusheng didn't believe it at all and quickly denied it, "How is it possible? Although my fellow disciples' skills are not superb, they will definitely come to save me! You are lying! We live together day and night and are as close as brothers. We will not stand by and watch someone die!"

Mu Hanxing asked back in a cold tone, nonchalantly: "I used to be a fellow disciple of yours, and you were planning to kill me, weren't you?"

"..."

The two paused, looking embarrassed.

She continued, "Since you trust your fellow disciples so much, why haven't there been any disciples from the Wenxin Sect around these past few days? You've been missing for so many days, and no one has come to look for you?"

The two were silent, their faces gradually becoming ugly. Whether what others said was true or not, they could always figure it out. They knew exactly what kind of people they were with day and night like.

"Let's get back to the topic. Where is the leader? How did you get here?" Mu Hanxing continued to ask the two calmly.

When this was mentioned, the two frowned, looked at each other, and their faces became even uglier.

Lu Yusheng said, "We heard from people at the foot of the mountain that when they passed by the theater city, they always felt that there was something strange there, no sound could be heard, and there was no one around. Although they didn't see any monsters, they felt that there were gusts of cold wind when they passed by there. After hearing this, the master felt that this matter could not be left unattended, so he ordered a few of us to accompany him here. Who would have thought that after entering, we found nothing and couldn't get out."

waste.

She cursed inwardly. With just these few pieces of material, could she feel at ease handing them over to Wenxinmen in the future?

She doesn't even know her own weight, and all she does all day long is covet useless fame. Of course, she is greedy too, but at least she needs to have real talents and make some achievements to convince others. She thinks Cui Rencai is not so kind, and probably wants to secure his position as the head of the mountain gate. After hearing some rumors, she thought it was a trivial matter, so she came here to bring the credit back to the mountain. Who would have thought that she would fail.

"And then, go on." She said coldly and ruthlessly.

"At first, we used a compass to search for traces of the evil spirit, but..." Lu Yusheng swallowed, "The compass needle never stopped for a moment, it kept spinning crazily and continuously."

Mu Hanxing and the other three were stunned after hearing this. Doesn't this mean that the whole city is full of ghosts?

These wandering people are indeed not ordinary people.
