When did the brother collapse [Transmigration Book]

The crowd rode the winged Pegasus horse to Shengxian Town.

Just as Si Qi said, the Pegasus horse that Chen Zhishuo rode was all white and had a docile personality.Chen Zhishuo sat on it and rode in the wind, similar to a merry-go-round in an amusement park.

Tianma traveled extremely fast, and in less than half a day, everyone arrived at Shengxian Town.

Everyone in Shengxian Town had been looking forward to it for a long time, and now they saw with their own eyes several cultivators descending from the sky with long swords on their backs.

The old man in charge introduced his surname as Mei, the mayor of Shengxian Town, and asked as usual, "Are you all immortal cultivators from Yuxu Gate?"

Shen Qianqian in the middle nodded and said, "That's right."

Mayor Mei hurriedly invited everyone to rest at the best inn in the town, and at the same time, he did not forget to tell Chen Zhishuo and others the latest situation on the way: "Last night, the granddaughter-in-law who just passed by the old Liu's family was captured by a monster. She, thirteen people have been captured by monsters in our town."

It was not much different from the number calculated by Shen Qianqian and Chen Zhishuo.

When they arrived at the inn, a group of people gathered around, each of them stretched out their hands to catch the disciples of the Yuxu Sect, shouting words such as "savior", "immortal", "bodhisattva" and so on.

Mayor Mei led a few men from his family to stop them between them and Chen Zhishuo and the others, and said sharply, "Stop arguing! I know you are impatient, and I am also impatient. Immortal cultivators are here, so why are you arguing?"

As expected, the voices of the crowd became quieter, but there was a dissatisfied voice among them: "No one is missing from your family, so of course you are not in a hurry."

Mayor Mei was so angry that he blew his beard and stared: "As the mayor, how can I not be in a hurry? But what's the use of you standing here blocking the door and making noise? The most urgent thing is for me to discuss the situation with the immortals first." Let the elders make it clear, please hurry up and kill the demons for us!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately fell silent.

Mayor Mei took the lead to push aside the blocking crowd and led them into the inn.

6. Shengxian Town ([-])

◎Catch a little demon first◎

Mayor Mei asked everyone to sit down, and asked the innkeeper and the proprietress to offer the best tea and snacks in Shangxian Town to the immortal elders.

"Everyone came from a long way, Mei is really grateful." Mayor Mei personally served tea to Shen Qianqian.

Lu Li was too lazy to be polite, so he asked directly, "Who is missing?"

Mayor Mei originally saw Shen Qianqian surrounded by disciples of Yuxu sect Zhongxing Pengyue, but now hearing Lu Li's words, he subconsciously glanced at Shen Qianqian.

Shen Qianqian, who was drinking tea, blushed slightly: "Mayor, tell me."

The elder Meizhen was so sophisticated, he knew in one round that Lu Li was the main speaker, so he didn't dare to be careless, so he came up with them one by one.

"The first one is Hu Kaisheng, a hunter. One day he went hunting in the mountains, but he didn't come back that day. At first his wife didn't take it seriously, but then..."

Lu Li raised his hand to stop Mayor Mei's words, and reminded him, "Mayor, time is running out, so let's pick the key points."

Mayor Mei nodded and continued: "We went into the mountains to search, but we couldn't find anyone. At first we didn't confuse this incident with monsters. After all, 600 years ago in Shengxian Town, there were people who ascended." The treasure land..."

"Ahem," this time before Lu Li could say anything, Chen Zhishuo pretended to cough twice, reminding Meizhen to keep the long story short.

Mayor Mei smiled apologetically and said, "I'm old, I really can't bear the nonsense. So, let my eldest son tell everyone. Borun, tell the elders about the situation."

The middle-aged strong man standing behind the mayor stood up and continued to report the situation to them.

"On the seventh day after Hu Kaisheng disappeared, his cousin Zhao San also disappeared from his room in the middle of the night. Then seven days later, his cousin Zhao Ying also disappeared from her room in the middle of the night. This Only then did we feel that something was wrong. On the fifth day after Zhao Ying disappeared, the fourth person, a peasant woman named Zhou Huijuan, also disappeared."

Chen Zhishuo raised his hand at this moment, and asked Mayor Mei and the others, "Do you have a map of Shengxian Town?"

Everyone was puzzled and looked at him one after another.An irritable Yuxu Sect disciple reminded him: "Senior Brother Chen, let someone finish talking first."

Chen Zhishuo said confidently: "I have a bad memory. I forget the front when I hear it. It's more convenient to have a map."

The young people brought by Mayor Mei were more clever, and immediately replied: "Yes, there are. Immortal Chief, wait a moment, and I will go get them."

Mayor Mei took the opportunity to introduce to everyone: "Everyone, this is my second son, Mei Zhongrun."

Lu Li watched Mei Zhongrun leave, and then asked Mayor Mei, "Do you have a pen and paper?"

"There are pens and paper, there are pens and paper." Mayor Mei understood what Lu Li was thinking, and quickly asked the proprietress to fetch the pens and paper, "Don't bother the elders to write, I will record for you."

Mei Borun continued, "From the moment the fourth person disappeared, people were organized to take turns to watch the night. Each family also arranged for men to guard outside the women's house, but some people were still missing. There were men and women, old and young."

He told the names and information of the missing persons one by one. As a result, except for Lu Li, everyone else, as Chen Zhishuo said, forgot the front after hearing it.

At this moment, he couldn't just sit here and wait for Mei Zhongrun to deliver the map.

Lu Li asked Mei Borun, "The reporter said that a watchman saw a monster arresting someone. Where is he now?"

"He was so frightened that he went crazy." Mei Borun sighed helplessly, "He only said one sentence every day, 'The monster is here to catch people'."

Based on his experience in reading novels over the years, Chen Zhishuo asked, "What did the family members of those missing persons tell you? Did they hear any sounds or smell anything?"

"The Immortal Elder is really good at predicting things." Mei Borun recalled and nodded again and again, "Several people said that they smelled a strange fragrance and passed out after smelling it. Someone is missing."

Shen Qianqian slapped the table anxiously when she heard the words, and said angrily, "Why didn't you say it earlier!"

A strong man turned pale with fright, and Mei Borun quickly explained to himself: "Yes, I am about to speak."

Lu Li asked him again: "Any other clues?"

Shen Qianqian glared at Mei Borun: "Answer after thinking about it!"

"No, really no more."

Shen Qianqian wanted to ask again, but Lu Li withdrew his gaze from him, and began to assign tasks: "Junior Sister Shen, Junior Brother Lu, you and a few other juniors and younger sisters will go to the homes of these missing persons separately, and follow the usual practice."

Shen Qianqian reluctantly responded: "Then what about you and Junior Brother Chen?"

"We're going to see the watchman."

Chen Zhishuo saw Mayor Mei put away his pen, and the paper and ink on the table were still wet. Before he left, Chen Zhishuo specially asked him: "Mayor, please put these two pieces of paper and the map together. I will use them when I come back later."

Mayor Mei naturally agreed.

Shengxian Town is not very big, most of the people in the town depend on farming for a living, because there are several high mountains in the back, there are also many hunters.There is only one post station in the town, and there are no more than four or five merchants who come here to do business every month.

The watchman's house is on the west side of Shengxian Town, and there are five people in his family.The watchman's parents are old, and after the watchman went crazy, they reluctantly help the watchman's wife with some housework and take care of their only daughter.The husband and wife, who were burdened by the burden of life, had half-white hair. Hearing that two immortal elders from the Yuxu Gate came to his home, they came out to greet them in a hurry.

"You two elders, you have to save the head of my family!" Without saying a word, the wife cried out in a low voice, and the daughter next to her was infected by the crying, hugging her leg and crying unceasingly.

Mei Borun hurried forward to persuade him: "These two elders came to see your family, what about others?"

"It's locked in the back room." Wiping away tears, the watchman's wife said in a crying voice, "Everyone, come with me."

Bypassing the living room, the husband and wife led the crowd to the backyard. On the left was a room with a large iron lock, and the windows were all covered with black cloth, and hoarse roars could be heard from inside from time to time.

"After he came back that day, as long as he had the strength, he would smash things at home and yell, which scared the old man and the children to the point of getting sick." He took out a key from his apron pocket, handed it to Lu Li with both hands, and continued to explain, "I really had no other choice, so I asked the blacksmith next door to forge an iron chain, and asked the neighbors to help me to lock him in the locker room. in."

Lu Li took the key, turned his head to look at Chen Zhisuo, and signaled him to follow.

Mei Borun also wanted to follow, but Lu Li raised his hand to stop him: "It's dangerous inside."

"Those two fairy elders, be careful." Mei Borun was as good as he was, and stood outside waiting obediently.

Lu Li and Chen Zhisuo entered the room, and it was pitch black—apparently, the watchman's wife was afraid that the watchman would injure herself with fire or burn the house down, leaving no candles or kerosene lamps for lighting.

Immortal cultivators have extremely strong night vision, and can see the surrounding environment clearly with only weak light, but in a completely dark environment, they are no different from ordinary people.

However, this did not bother Lu Li.With a wave of his hand, a few starlights floated out from his sleeves, drifted unsteadily to the beams of the house, and sprinkled countless tiny light spots.

Through the starlight, Lu Li and Chen Zhishuo saw the watchman sitting against the wall.The latter was frightened by the sudden light, shrank into a small ball, hid in the corner of the wall with hands and feet, trembling.

When Lu Li approached him, the watchman suddenly stood up, opened his hands, and rushed towards Lu Li!

Lu Li didn't panic, stretched out his right hand and two fingers, and reached for the watchman's eyebrows.He strikes back, and taps the watchman's eyebrows with two fingers first, and then silently recites the Qingxin formula, the watchman's originally fast-moving eyeballs gradually slow down, and finally
