There's something wrong with the general.

There is a small island the size of a basketball court in the middle of the lake.

The island is covered with green grass, which is soft and tender.

In the middle of the grass, magical herbs were growing scattered around, including some bright and extremely rare magical herbs that had only been seen in books.

"Shall we go over there?"

Wen Yuxi was overjoyed when he saw that there were many magical herbs on the island that could be used to make elixirs.

If you can collect some, you can not only complete the sect's mission, but also exchange it for some spirit stones.

I wonder if there are any troublesome monsters lurking in the water.

The appearance of the white ape just now will not necessarily scare away the monster in the water.

Wen Yuxi turned to look at the two of them, raised his eyebrows, and asked for their opinions.

Su Yan didn't care about anything else. He took the lead and flew over in his spaceship.

"I'll go up and take a look first."

Wen Yuxi couldn't help but smile helplessly. Su Yan was too impatient.

The lake is not big to begin with, and the distance from the lakeshore to the island is only a few hundred meters.

Even if something happened, he and Jiang Ling could get there in time, so they did not stop Su Yan.

Jiang Ling looked at Su Yan with a hint of worry in his eyes. He nodded to Wen Yuxi and said, "Junior Brother Wen, I'll go over first."

After saying this, he transformed into a python and flew away.

Wen Yuxi scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense and found nothing unusual, so he flew towards the center of the lake on Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei didn't fly high, but flew low along the water surface, and his eyes looked into the water from time to time.

Wen Yuxi patted its forehead in amusement and said, "Is there something you want to eat in the water? Don't worry, wait until I get ashore, and you can go and play on your own. But there are many monsters here, so be careful."

Xiao Hei blinked, turned his head and rubbed Wen Yuxi's head.

The touch on his forehead was so soft that it made him want to laugh.

"Okay, it's itchy." Xiao Hei stopped.

Perhaps because of the promise, Xiao Hei became visibly happy. He stepped lightly on the water with his feet, flapped his strong wings vigorously a few times, stopped, and began to glide along the water.

In just a few breaths, the man and the beast landed on the island.

Wen Yuxi jumped off it, patted its back, and said softly, "Go."

Xiao Hei raised his neck, took two steps with a proud stride, then flapped his wings and flew away, soon disappearing into the dense jungle.

Wen Yuxi looked at Xiao Hei's disappearing back for a while before walking towards Su Yan and Jiang Ling.

They came to the very edge of the island, staring at something in a daze.

Wen Yuxi was not in a hurry. He looked at the various magical herbs on the island as he walked, and his heart suddenly blossomed with joy.

But after taking a few steps, I began to feel doubtful.

What are these two people doing? They have a gold mine but they don't dig it up. What are they researching?

I walked towards them with growing curiosity.

Hearing the footsteps, Su Yan raised his head, looked towards Wen Yuxi, and waved at him: "Wen Yuxi, come here quickly."

Uh, Wen Yuxi became more and more curious, and hurriedly circulated his spiritual power, disappearing from the spot in an instant.

"What happen to you guys?"

Wen Yuxi stood beside Su Yan without blushing or beating her heart, and with her hair not messed up, she patted his shoulder and asked curiously.

"I see a rich variety of magical herbs here. Did you bring any magical instruments to preserve them?"

Su Yan ignored his words, but raised his hand and pointed at the ground: "Wen Yuxi, look."

Wen Yuxi finally reacted and looked at the ground along his hand. His eyes were suddenly stung and his face looked a little ugly.

There was a person lying on the ground.

dead.

Still an acquaintance.

It was the man named Qi who was in the Foundation Establishment Stage that Lu Tong looked for.

He was wearing the black disciple uniform of the Jiuxuan Sect and lying on the ground with his back spread out. There were no wounds on his body, but his eyes were wide open, and his pupils seemed to be filled with great fear.

There are already corpse spots on his body, so he must have been dead for several hours.

"Could he be a disciple of our Jiuxuan Sect?"

When Jiang Ling saw his body, he felt mixed emotions. He never expected that the perpetrator would now be found dead.

"Just open the Qiankun bag and you'll know."

Su Yan took out his sword and opened the Qiankun bag tied around the waist of the man surnamed Qi.

After a person dies, the mark on the Qiankun bag can be erased directly.

Su Yan picked up his Qiankun bag and scanned it with his spiritual sense. He was still shocked when he saw the mountain of things inside.

After searching for a while, he did not find any token that could prove that he was a disciple of Jiuxuan Sect, but there were a few fake tokens.

"I'm afraid not. Take a look."

Su Yan handed the Qiankun bag to Jiang Ling.

Jiang Ling took a quick look and found that there were disciple uniforms from several sects in his Qiankun bag.

He couldn't help but frown: "He is pretending to be a disciple of various sects, what is his purpose?"

Wen Yuxi also glanced at the contents of his Qiankun bag.

I really didn't expect that he was such a wealthy man. He had hundreds of thousands of spirit stones and quite a few magical weapons.

Tsk tsk, what a pity that the person died and the money was not spent.

"How did he die?"

Su Yan asked with a frown.

This place is remote, and although there are disciples coming here to hunt monsters, this man does not have a single wound on his body. He died in fear, and there are no signs of struggle around him.

It was like being possessed and then frightened to death by myself.

Wen Yuxi touched his chin and reminded them, "Don't forget what we are here for, and it's better to leave this murder scene as soon as possible, otherwise if someone comes, we won't be able to explain ourselves."

Even though they didn't kill the person, if some people are unreasonable, it will cause a lot of explanations and trouble.

After all, Wen Yuxi is a person who is afraid of trouble.

"What about this corpse and the Qiankun bag?"

Jiang Ling was slightly stunned, then realized that they really couldn't stay here for long. They still didn't know if something here had killed the man surnamed Qi.

If so.

Then they are actually in great danger.

The man surnamed Qi died with only fear, without any struggle. The person who killed him must have had a much higher level of cultivation than him, so he could kill him without being seen.

"Junior Brother Su, what do you think?" Jiang Ling turned around and asked for his opinion.

Su Yan nodded: "Take them all back, just in case."

Wen Yuxi also meant this, but...

How to carry the corpse?

He remembered that the spirit of the weapon had transformed itself into its original body from his body, which had made him very uncomfortable.

Even if you beat him to death, don't bring his body with you.

So, Wen Yuxi and Jiang Ling looked at Su Yan, asking how to take it back.

Su Yan did not disappoint the two of them and directly took out a mini box from his Qiankun bag.

He raised his hand and injected some magic power into the box, which suddenly grew larger on the ground and the lid slowly opened.

Cold air was rising from the rectangular box.

Wen Yuxi and Jiang Ling looked at each other.

It seems that he was carrying an ice coffin.

Wen Yuxi licked the corner of his mouth and asked curiously, "Brother Su, do you have any special hobbies?"

Su Yan put the body of the man surnamed Qi into the coffin and put it back into the Qiankun bag.

He turned around and rolled his eyes at Wen Yuxi: "You are so ignorant. This is where I keep special spiritual herbs or materials."

Well, okay, he was mistaking it...

"Let's go pick some spiritual herbs."

Jiang Ling felt uneasy for some reason and hurriedly urged the two of them.
