But in just a few breaths, the flames soared and continued to disperse in all directions.These people jumped out of the window directly. Cultivators are different from mortals after all. They arrived at a distance of hundreds of meters in just an instant.

Gathering water is by no means a profound spell. Among the seven people, Hanmo and Fu Xiao both know this spell. In addition, other monks who are good at using water spells and the surrounding residents poured water on it. Although the fire was extremely strong, it was still within ten minutes was extinguished.

However, at this time, the house in front of him had already been burnt to ashes, with ruins everywhere.

Many people around were pointing and pointing, saying that this fire evil gate suddenly caught fire for some reason.

Some people also said that this is obviously a fire from heaven, but luckily there is no one in the house, otherwise how could they escape from such a big fire?

Fortunately, someone had already separated the houses on both sides, otherwise the flames would follow the trend, and it might burn a whole street.

Ji Yuze scanned around, and found that there were a lot of monks hidden among the onlookers.

In addition to the freshmen from their Zixiao Sect, presumably other sects also sent disciples here.

However, because the missing people were all mortals, the major sects probably didn't take it as an important matter. These monks mainly focused on refining Qi and building a foundation.

As soon as Xu Jingyang mentioned fire, there was a water leakage incident, which made them feel that it was too coincidental.

The city guards had already arrived to deal with the follow-up time, and the crowd gradually dispersed.After the group of them returned to the inn, they continued their previous conversation.

Ju Hanmo's expression was not very good all the way back from the scene. He frowned and said, "Luo Deng, you are very sensitive to fire. What did you find at the scene?"

Luo Deng rubbed his chin, "This is also my strange place. Obviously the fire burned strangely, but I didn't feel the fire magic, as if it happened naturally."

Fu Xiao said: "Could it be a formation?"

Ji Yuze shook his head.After some tutoring by Wen Yu and Wuzishu Qiling, he has already gained a certain understanding of a lot of knowledge about cultivation.

He said: "If the fire is a formation, if you want to break it, you must find the eye of the formation. It is impossible to be extinguished so easily. And even if it is a formation, someone must inject spiritual energy in order to activate it. This fire is as pure as it is."

Ju Hanmo looked at Xu Jingyang with doubts in his eyes.

Xu Jingyang scratched his head, "It's useless for you to look at me. I'm not sure whether the fire has anything to do with the missing person. I just put forward a hypothesis, otherwise we'll wait two days and see again?"

The memory of the monks is naturally not bad. They basically remembered all the onlookers around the fire at that time.

Chu Rong had been silent all this time, but at this moment he suddenly said: "Jingyang focused on the people in the city, why don't we look from another direction?"

Ju Hanmo asked, "What does this mean?"

Chu Rong said: "There are hundreds of thousands of people in Yuecheng. Even if we search for clues by block, the process is too slow for us. Why don't we look for the traces of those missing people? Since people in Yuecheng are still missing, we can It means that the culprit has not left this place, and those who disappeared will not be hidden too far by him."

Ju Hanmo's eyes lit up, he really didn't think of this way.The so-called authorities are obsessed with onlookers, and the first time they go out to do a mission, the only clue they have can't be interrupted. They were indeed a little confused at first, and they only wanted to find it in Yuecheng, but they didn't have a clear goal.

He said: "Just do what Chu Rong said. There is no need to go to the block anymore. There are a lot of these missing people, and they will always leave some clues."

The others were visibly rejoiced, but Xu Jingyang was quite disappointed, he liked to chat on the street.

There is a curfew in Yuecheng at night, even if they don't need to sleep and rest, it is not conducive for them to go out at night, so they simply follow the work and rest time of the people here.

Early the next morning, they went out, this time the target was the place where the missing people were before they disappeared.

However, when they found it, they found that this was also a troublesome matter.

Most of the missing people are foreigners and beggars. The residents of Yuecheng are not familiar with the former, and they don't care about the latter.When the beggar disappeared on the street at first, most of the residents thought that the beggar might be begging elsewhere, and some people didn't even find out about it.

So this means that it is very difficult to find where these people were before they disappeared.

The only one who had a clue was the monk's cousin. When Ji Yuze and Xu Jingyang came to the door, they found that there were a lot of people here, more than a dozen.They looked at each other, and sure enough, there were not many people who could think of this.

The monk looked very anxious, and he said: "I made an appointment with my cousin to meet at the Jiuzhongxian restaurant in the city three days later, but my cousin didn't come that day, and I waited there all afternoon without seeing anyone , Only then did I realize that something was wrong, so I went to the inn where my cousin was temporarily staying, but there was no one there, and I found out that he was missing. You all know what happened next, so I don’t need to say more.”

This passage really proves nothing, and even this man is not sure whether his cousin disappeared in the room or on the street.

Perhaps Chu Rong opened a new door for everyone, and Ji Yuze also thought of another angle.If you can't start with clues, what about motivation?

Why on earth did the other party want to arrest so many mortals?

Since he can make people disappear without a sound, he must resort to some means, whether to use spells or formations, or have his accomplices help?

It's just that even if these questions are raised now, it's not very useful. They are like empty frames built in the air, without a solid foundation to support them-until now, they still haven't found out why those people disappeared.

It's like an unsolvable problem that goes back and forth, but in the end it stays where it is.

A week passed, but they got nothing.

Not only that, there are even new missing persons appearing, which is like a resounding slap on the faces of these proud sons of heaven.

Almost all monks believed that the person behind the scenes was deliberately provoking.Look, even if you big sect disciples come, I can still get people away in full view, but you can't catch me.

This really made the monks who accepted the task furious, but after being angry, they felt a little discouraged.Because it was true, they wasted so much time and found nothing.

The seven people who were originally confident about this had to admit that they were not as powerful as they imagined, and they couldn't easily solve this task.

Even Ji Yuze felt that instead of playing puzzle games in this city, it would be more interesting to join Wen Yu in a secret adventure.

Things turned around on the eighth day.

At that time, they had already searched almost all the blocks in the whole city, but they still didn't find any useful clues. Ju Hanmo had no choice but to propose to start the carpet search from the beginning, and pay more attention to details this time.

Seeing Xu Jingyang standing in front of the bakery uncle again, Ji Yuze looked at this familiar scene and wished he could reach out and press the SKIP button to fast-forward the plot.

He crossed his arms in boredom, stood aside, and looked at the passers-by around him.

The conversation between the two came to the ears with the wind——

"Uncle, your pastry looks delicious, how much does it cost?"

"Exclusive secret recipe, thirty coins per catty, no deception!"

"Uncle, I think your business is so good, why don't you rent a shop?"

"Little baby doesn't understand, small business can't afford to rent a shop, the rent is more than the money earned in a month."

……

Ji Yuze gradually frowned, why did he feel that this conversation was very familiar?

He turned his head to look at Xu Jingyang and the uncle. In an instant, this scene completely overlapped with a faded memory in his mind.

In an instant, many scenes flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern, until finally, it was frozen at the moment when the seven of them walked into the gate of Yuecheng.

At that time, he subconsciously looked up at this behemoth before entering the city gate.

But now, in his memory, the opened city gate was like a big mouth that swallowed them.

He only felt that his heart was beating extremely fast, and his whole body became hot under the state of tension and fear, and a layer of sweat broke out on his body in just a few breaths.

He directly pulled Xu Jingyang, who was still chatting with his uncle, and said without any rebuttal: "We'll go back right away!"

This was the first time Ji Yuze was so serious, Xu Jingyang unconsciously obeyed his words, and even asked, "Should I inform them?"

Ji Yuze nodded, "Let everyone gather, I have made a major discovery."

The speed of everyone's return was not slow, and the seven gathered together again.Luo Deng was the first to lose his composure, "If you have anything to say, just say it." He said "Tsk", "This task is really boring. I would rather go to the martial arts field to find someone to fight with when I have this time."

Ji Yuze glanced at him, "You won't be bored soon."

As long as he thought of his conjecture, his heart would feel like falling into an ice cellar, "After staying in Yuecheng for so long, don't you find anything wrong?"

something wrong?The few people looked at each other, they spent almost all their time looking for clues, and dealt with the residents of the city a lot, but in this city, except for some people missing from time to time, everything is normal... Ju Hanmo's eyes lit up , He instantly understood Ji Yuze's words.

Precisely because everything is normal is the greatest abnormality!

In a city where people are often missing, why do the people in the city still live and work in peace and contentment?It stands to reason that such weird things happen frequently and have not been resolved, so everyone should be in panic. However, the people in this city don't seem to care about it, but they are used to it and still live peacefully.

Ju Hanmo said: "There is something wrong with the people in this city."

"More than that." Ji Yuze shook his head.

He wanted to speak, but looked at everyone's faces but didn't know what to say, finally he just said: "You will know in the evening."

Ji Yuze's words really made everyone want to beat him up, don't play tricks like this!

However, he couldn't pry his mouth open without talking, so everyone could only wait patiently. Fortunately, the monk's time passed quickly, and the spiritual energy circulated in the meridians for a few days, and the sky darkened.

This day is the new moon, after the curfew, I can't see my fingers.Suddenly, in the night, a fire lit up very conspicuously. The flames soared into the sky and thick smoke billowed. These people yelled "no good" and wanted to rush to put out the fire one by one.

But Ji Yuze's calm voice sounded beside him, "Don't you think this matter is familiar?"

The teammates stopped their movements, but Ji Yuze's words did not stop. He continued: "The flames that will burn every seven days, the vendors on the street that will never change, and the residents who talk about the same topic almost every day , We have not discovered so many flaws until now, why do you think this is?"

The fire light reflected in his eyes, as if his pupils were dancing with flames, he lightly said: "The whole city is a phantom formation, and we have already stepped into it."

The author has something to say: A little angel said that Xiao Yu was doing tasks in Xinshou Village, it was so naive, Xinshou Village is so boring, of course it is going to be big~
