Chapter 457 Arrangement
Chapter 457 Arrangement
The inside and outside of Kitano County are obviously different: although there are locusts above the former, they come and go and do not approach the city.
The latter is completely occupied by locusts and is completely unsuitable for human habitation.
But there is one thing that is not so beautiful about Kitano County City. In order to drive away locusts, poison frog trees are planted everywhere in Kitano County City. The flowers of this tree have a smell that can repel insects, but it is also so pungent that people don't want to get close to it.
So as soon as they entered the city, Cui'er and her sister almost covered their noses.
The three of them turned into rays of light and appeared at the door of the Su family in an instant.
When the three of them visited the Su family, several Jindan cultivators of the Su family had already reacted and all appeared vigilantly.
Wang Yanyu first discovered that it was Tian Lin, and before flying out from the backyard to greet him, he shouted, "Senior Brother Tian!"
Tian Lin didn't bother to be polite with her and asked her directly: "I went to Mei Xiangu's village, but there was no trace of Mei Xiangu in the village. Everyone in that village is dead. Where did Mei Xiangu go?"
Wang Yanyu was even more surprised than Tian Lin. She couldn't help but look at Zhuang'er: "You deliver food to the village every month. Have you ever found anything unusual?"
Zhuang Er quickly shook his head: "I went to the village at the beginning of the month, and everything was fine at that time. I didn't hear that Miss Mei had any intention of leaving, nor did I feel anything unusual."
"Yes! It's no longer safe outside the city! In addition to the locust plague, evil spirits have gradually invaded Beiye County. Senior Sister Mei, could it be that you have encountered evil spirits?"
Tian Lin couldn't help but ask, "Is the evil spirit so powerful now? It made Senior Sister Mei unable to even escape?"
You know, Mei Xiangu holds the Goddess Tree. Unless you are a Yuanying strongman, ordinary people are no match for Mei Xiangu.
Although the evil spirits are causing trouble nowadays, the evil spirits at the Nascent Soul level should not appear in Beiye County.
In other words, if there is an evil spirit at the Yuanying level in Beiye County, if Master Kong Wufa does not take action, the entire Beiye County will have no chance of survival.
"Since even you don't know the whereabouts of Senior Sister Mei, it means that Senior Sister Mei encountered an emergency."
Tian Lin frowned, thinking about Mei Xiangu's enemies and the evil spirits in Beiye County.
Unfortunately, he has been "secluded" in the underground space in recent years and has no idea about the situation in the outside world.
After a moment, Tian Lin could only bow to Wang Yanyu and say, "This is the Su family's territory. Senior Sister Wang and a few seniors, please send some people to find out where Senior Sister Mei is."
Those elders were not willing to do so, but Fairy Mei was a true disciple of the Daoist Sect, and her grandfather was an elder in the Goddess Sect.
Something happened to Mei Xiangu in Beiye County. It was impossible for them to get rid of the involvement, and it was even more impossible for them to reject Tian Lin's request in person.
Wang Yanyu was not reluctant. She frowned and said, "You don't need Senior Brother Tian to tell me about this. I will definitely use all the city's strength to find Senior Sister Mei's whereabouts.
After all, Senior Sister Mei suffered this disaster in order to protect the people of Beiye County."
After she finished speaking, she turned to Zhuang'er and said, "Go and post a notice now, using food as a bargaining chip, and invite courageous people to go out of the city to find the whereabouts of Mei Xiangu."
She then said to the elders, "Didn't the disciples in the clan say that they were bored staying in the city? Let them leave the city now and look for the whereabouts of Mei Xiangu! Whoever can find the clues will be rewarded handsomely by the clan!"
Tian Lin then asked Wang Yanyu, "Where is Master Kong Wufa? Is Master Kong Wufa in the city?"
Wang Yanyu shook her head and said, "Master Kong Wufa has been away from the county town for a month! He couldn't bear to see the people outside Beiye County being harassed by evil spirits, so he went to the villages outside the city to look for living people and bring them back to the city."
To be able to make Mei Xiangu disappear quietly, it must be said that the opponent is extremely powerful.
Tian Lin thought to himself that he didn't have the ability to make Mei Xiangu disappear.
So even if you find an opponent, you may not be able to deal with him. If you have no time to take charge, the situation will be very different.
"Senior sister, do you have any way to contact Elder Mei and Elder Xue? Something like this happened here, and we must report it to the two elders."
The elder of the Su family was afraid of being held accountable by Dao Zong and Elder Mei, so he wanted to calm the situation down, so he said, "We don't have any clues at all now - did Mei Xiangu really get into trouble, or did she just leave quietly because she couldn't stand the loneliness? We haven't found out yet.
How about waiting until you understand the situation before reporting it?"
Without waiting for Tian Lin to refute, Wang Yanyu spoke first:
"If Senior Sister Mei left on her own, that would be the best! But what if Senior Sister Mei really got into trouble? The sooner we find Elder Mei or Elder Xue, the sooner we can find Miss Mei with their help.
As for being afraid of taking responsibility? Does that mean you won’t report it for the rest of your life?”
After that, she assured Tian Lin, "I will immediately send someone to take the teleportation array to the Daoist Sect and the Goddess Sect to deliver the letter."
Seeing that she had arranged everything properly, Tian Lin said, "If there is any news, please inform me as soon as possible, Senior Sister Wang. I can't stay in the city, so I'll leave Yu'er in the city—"
After saying that, he took Cui'er out of the city.
The reason for taking Cui'er out of the city was to find someone to check and fill in the gaps.
Leaving Yu'er in the city was to monitor the Su family and see if Wang Yanyu's previous words were just bragging. To see if the Su family was actually pretending to obey their orders when looking for someone!
Although if the Su family and Wang Yanyu wanted to pretend to obey but actually disobey, it would be difficult for Yu'er to detect it alone.
But as long as Yu'er is around, the Su family will feel pressure, and they will send people out of the city to look for her, even if it's just for show.
"We haven't seen any evil spirits along the way. It's hard to imagine that there is any evil spirit that could take Miss Mei away."
Cui Er didn't believe what Wang Yanyu said about the evil spirits, so she asked, "Could it be the Tang family's doing?"
Mei Xiangu killed Tang Zhi's son, and Tang Zhi's wife also died at the hands of Tian Lin.
Tian Lin didn't believe that Tang Zhi could be magnanimous at first, until later Tang Zhi helped Wang Yanyu and even Tian Lin become true disciples of the Daodao Sect.
But because of the hatred for the murder of his son and wife, even though Tang Zhi acted like a saint, Tian Lin still didn't believe in Tang Zhi.
When Cui Er mentioned this, he said noncommittally, "I heard that Tang Zhi has already achieved Nascent Soul cultivation. When Elder Xue comes over and asks about Tang Zhi's whereabouts, we will know whether the incident has anything to do with him or not."
At first, when Tian Lin went back and forth to the county seat of Beiye County, he only used his true energy to drive away the locusts.
But now he had lost that kind of patience. He rushed around recklessly on the road, crushing all the flying insects into powder in an instant.
What kind of harm would this bring to Beiye County and the whole world? Tian Lin could no longer care about that.
You know, it was Tian Lin who made it possible for Mei Xiangu to stay in the village.
If Mei Xiangu died because of my actions, not to mention whether Elder Mei would kill me, I would find it difficult to forgive myself.
Soon, the master and the servant returned and went back to the temple where Mei Xiangu was originally.
