"Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? I'll get it." Chen Shaojing asked.

Asking such a question, Zhang Zhou really felt hungry, he said: "Okay, I want to eat..."

"Small boat!"

Before Zhang Zhou finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lan Xiyu's sudden call.

Hua Wanqing and Shang Luofu came in with her.

"Xiao Zhou, Xiao porridge." Hua Wanqing read in a low voice, covering her mouth with her fan feathers, secretly laughing.

"Master uncle, senior." Zhang Zhou hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Master uncle, senior." Chen Shaojing followed and saluted.

Lan Xiyu avoided their salute, walked over to support Zhang Zhou, clasped his wrist and inspected it carefully with spiritual power.He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was recovering well.

"Fellow Daoist Hua said that you suggested the method of opening the west gate to let the herd of beasts pass. How did you know that the herd of beasts just wanted to pass through?" She asked Zhang Zhou after sitting down.

Zhang Zhou organized his words in his mind, looked at her and said: "I watched the beast tide rushing over in the restaurant and didn't see any birds, but the day before yesterday outside the city, there were no other birds except jackdaws, which means that those who can fly have already flown. They left. The rest of the beasts only rushed in one direction, and the group that was scattered and gathered in the back also went straight to the east gate. They didn't turn back to attack the people in the front line, and they didn't attack the city wall. It means that they just want to open the gate. Later, after the city gate was broken, the monsters that poured into the city did not go up the city wall to attack the guards, nor did they disperse, but only attacked the people on the east and west roads, which proved that they were only eager to pass through the city."

"Why don't you find it strange that the Jackdaw didn't leave?" Shang Luofu asked curiously.

"Jackdaws can fly, the danger on the ground is not a big threat to them, and jackdaws live on carrion, where there is war, there is rich food. There is a commotion in the forest, and the greedy habits of jackdaws We will definitely not let go of this opportunity to have a good meal. It would be abnormal for them to gather and stay behind."

Everyone suddenly nodded and nodded.

"Martial nephew Zhang is very observant, I admire it." Shang Luofu said, took out a square jade box and handed it to him. "This is a millennium purple fruit, which can help you improve your cultivation."

Zhang Zhou was flattered and took the jade box with a smile. "Thank you, senior."

"Zhang Xiaoyou has contributed a lot this time, and I also have a thank you gift."

The city lord and Shentu Huangsu also came.

The city lord held a long jade box and handed it to Zhang Zhou.

"This is a 3000-year-old jade ginseng from Linhai, and the plant is complete." The city lord sighed slightly after handing the jade box to Zhang Zhou. "Before the city gate was broken, Zhang Xiaoyou came to remind me that I was headstrong. I am ashamed to say it. Later, fortunately, my little friend did not give up and flooded the east and west roads to drive away the people. Only after the monsters entered the city did they not cause a lot of casualties."

Speaking of this, the city lord bowed his hands to Lan Xiyu and said, "I also rely on the good teaching of Jiuxiaomen to get a disciple like Zhang Xiaoyou. From now on, Zangcheng is willing to do whatever is convenient for Jiuxiaomen."

"The city lord doesn't know that Zhang Xiaoyou is originally from Zangcheng." After the city lord praised him, Hua Wanqing, who was silent for a long time, said, shaking his fan.

When the city lord heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly asked, "Where is Zhang Xiaoyou's residence?"

Zhang Zhou glanced at Hua Wanqing, only to see that he was covering the lower half of his face with a fan, so he couldn't see his expression at all.

"The courtyard at the entrance of Chongwen Alley in Neihe, south of the city, used to be my home."

"Was it?" The city lord frowned.

"The courtyard 18 years ago was the courtyard of Zhang Jiabu's owner..." Zhang Zhou slowly said what he heard from following the two men yesterday.

"They thought that my father had died in a foreign land, and our Zhang family was extinct. They planned to dig up the bones of my ancestors in a few years and sell the cemetery."

"It's so deceiving!" Shentu Huangsu cursed suddenly.

"Yes, as Zhenjun said, these thieves have committed a heinous crime. I will go back later and send someone to inform the magistrate of the mortal world to punish the thieves according to the laws of the mortal world, and give justice to the Zhang family." The city lord nodded and said.

"Thank you, City Lord." Zhang Zhou's aggrieved heart was finally relieved, and he was so excited that he wanted to cry.

"Okay, now it's better to think about the reason for the beast swarm. Is it a treasure or man-made?" Seeing that there was a solution to Zhang Zhou's matter, Hua Wanqing brought the topic back to the beast swarm.

"Whatever you think about, why don't you just go and see it." Shentu Huangsu touched his arm with his elbow.

"What do you guys think?" Hua Wanqing looked at the others.

"can."

"can."

Lan Xiyu and Shang Luofu nodded.

"Then thank you all, I will hold a banquet in the mansion tonight." The city lord bowed to the rest of the people.

The cleaning work in the city is still going on, and it is understandable that the city owner cannot leave at this time, and the other four can understand.

After Lan Xiyu told Chen Shaojing to take good care of Zhang Zhou, she followed the others and left the teahouse.

After a while, the proprietress came in with a big cup of minced meat porridge twisting her waist.

Zhang Zhou and Chen Shaojing looked at each other, when did they order meat porridge?

The cleaning work in the city was carried out in an orderly manner, and the animal corpses were not the main point of cleaning up. After the beast tide passed, the monks began to pick up corpses in full swing, snatching up the corpses of monsters and spirits.The rest of the ordinary beasts were also picked up by mortals, skinned and deboned and added as vegetables.The porters were busy clearing the streets and buildings damaged in the fighting.The road that was trampled by the beasts was also badly damaged, and many houses on both sides were knocked down.

Hua Wanqing, Shentu Huangsu, Lan Xiyu and Shang Luofu followed the traces of the herd of beasts all the way to the place where the beast tide started.

The edge of Mo Yuan's forest core.There have been many monsters gathered here, and there are various traces of trampling on the ground.

Lin Hai's core was covered by a layer of ancient magic circle, the sunlight couldn't enter the magic circle, his consciousness couldn't expand, and his eyesight was limited within ten steps.Hence the name Moyuan.

At the edge of Lin Hai's core, the four of them searched and found a pile of carved wood fragments and some blasted remains.Judging from the red torn silk clothes, it is speculated that this person is most likely the Chishan Snake, after all, no one has ever seen the face of the Chishan Snake.

"Going out with a couch, there is no one except Chishan Snake Girl." Hua Wanqing kicked the carved piece of wood under his feet.The blocks were apparently fragments of a carved wooden couch.

Shang Luofu looked carefully at the fragments of the corpse and said: "She was blasted from the body, there was no burn from the magic technique, it was like a burst of spiritual energy. What did she encounter to explode her dantian?"

"Nephrite smoke!"

The other three said in unison.

Shang Luofu raised his head to look at them, and was surprised by their tacit answer.

Lan Xiyu blushed slightly and looked away.

"Cough!" Hua Wanqing coughed dryly and said, "The night before yesterday, the mad Taoist fought with Master Mikage of the Spiritual Cultivation School. Master Mikage uses nephrite smoke every time he commits a crime. We can imagine that it's not surprising."

"I was careless." Shang Luofu apologized.Lan Xiyu also mentioned the matter of Master Yuying in the jade slip that Lan Xiyu gave her, but she ignored it because she focused on Chishan Snake.

She never imagined that the three of them almost got into a fight because of nephrite smoke.

"Why does Chishan Snake Princess use nephrite jade smoke by herself?" Shang Luofu asked again.

"Master Yuying?" Shentu Huangsu guessed. "For sex?"

"No, they practice the same exercises, so they can't complement each other. And Chishan Snake Lady can detoxify herself." Hua Wanqing shook her head.

"It means she has lost consciousness."

Lan Xiyu said in an interface.

"Very likely." Hua Wanqing looked up at the night-like scenery in the barrier. "Mikage may be inside."

Shang Luofu stood up and turned to look inside the barrier.

"You wait." Shentu Huangsu said as he transformed into a protective light and flew into the barrier.

The three of them waited silently for a quarter of an hour, and a sizzling purple electric ball quickly shot out from the barrier.

Shentu Huangsu showed his real body and threw a pile of black cloth on the ground.

Lan Xiyu flicked her sleeves and lifted the black cloth on the ground, which was also a corpse that was blown to pieces.There is a white mask on the face of the head wrapped in black cloth, the mask is a face with a smile like a ghost, two red streaks from the forehead through the eyeholes down to the edge of the mask, it looks like two tears of blood.

Judging from the mask, this person should be Mikage.

"It's the same way of death." Shang Luofu said after observing.

"He died when he ran in from the outside." Shentu Huangsu said.

"The storage bags are still there." Hua Wanqing said, grabbing a storage bag in the air, and opened it to have a look. "The belongings are all there. It seems that they were insane themselves, and they poured nephrite smoke on themselves or each other."

"What about the relationship with the beast tide?" Shentu Huangsu asked.

The crowd was silent for a while, and each of them checked again separately.

"Here!" Lan Xiyu found a trace of a magic circle, and beckoned others to go over.

"This is a gathering array, with a sound reinforcement array embedded in the middle. It has been destroyed."

She squatted down and pointed to the traces of weeds lying down in front of her, and then pointed to a rock in front of her.

Hua Wanqing walked over and took a black round stone full of holes from the rock.

"Photography Stone." He said and poured spiritual power into the stone.

Suddenly, the stone made a hissing and roaring sound.

"Beast language," he said.

"Could it be that she used animal language to manipulate monsters for the sake of strange treasures? Martial nephew Zhang said that there is something in the forest that makes the herd escape. Is it a strange treasure?" Shang Luofu guessed.

"People are dead, but everything is here. There is nothing unusual. Everything can only be speculation." Hua Wanqing shook her head. "It doesn't look like there are any strange treasures, but it seems that she used the beast language to attract something that monsters are afraid of, and that thing made them lose their minds."

"The magic circle was destroyed by monsters or spirits. It may be to prevent the magic circle from attracting that thing." Lan Xiyu pointed to a place where several parallel earth-digging marks cut off the magic circle.

"Is that thing still here?" Shang Luofu suddenly became nervous.

One sentence attracted the other three to prepare for defense.

"Maybe, maybe I followed Mikage into the core barrier, maybe somewhere nearby." Hua Wanqing said cautiously. "Let's leave first. This thing can make people lose their minds. It's hard to guard against it before it shows up."

The other three nodded and vacated to leave Lin Hai directly above the forest.
