The scream of the girl is like a knife cutting through this hard-earned sleeping temple. For a while, everyone sleeping and resting in the tent woke up one after another, and a commotion arose. No one knew what had happened, and voices of inquiry kept overlapping.
Song Xian and others also came out of the tent one after another.
"What happened?" Yan Qiuling woke up from her sleep, with a slightly dazed expression on her face. She deliberately widened her eyes as if trying to force herself to wake up.
Looking at Song Xian, he remained calm as always, without a trace of panic.
Xu Lingshan had already stood up and said, "I don't know yet, someone was shouting over there just now."
He raised his hand and pointed to the back of Yuan Ji's portrait.
They occupy the space under the bronze statue, located in the center of the hall.
One by one, magical treasures float in mid-air, illuminating all directions.
Song Xian said, "Let's go and take a look."
Soon, more than a dozen people gathered together, and even Song Mingzi came over with his cherished dustpan.
The girl who screamed earlier is named Luo Fengjun. Initially, when Xu Lingshan heard the scream, he thought she was a very timid and fearful girl. However, when he rushed over, he saw her holding a sledgehammer, vigilantly scanning the surroundings and shouting loudly.
"I was just sleeping, sleeping in this damn place. I'm already a light sleeper, and suddenly I heard some noise in my ear. I opened my eyes and found someone sneaking around in my tent, doing who knows what," said Luo Fengjun, her face filled with anger. She looked at the people again, as if she wanted to immediately expose that person. She said, "I immediately shouted at them, and that person ran out. When I chased after them, they had disappeared."
Xu Lingshan listened and immediately exchanged glances with Yin Mingyao.
Yin Mingyu nodded slightly, understanding the meaning of Xu Lingshan's glance.
This person is very likely to be the archer Xu Lingshan saw earlier.
"Fengjun, did you see the person's face clearly?" the girl standing next to Luo Fengjun immediately asked, "Who is it?"
"I didn't see it clearly," Luo Fengjun shook his head, "But that person should be stealing something."
"Stealing? What did they steal?"
Ro Fengjun said, "I just checked, that person should not have succeeded, I haven't lost anything."
"Who is so despicable, sneaking into Fengjun's tent to steal things!" The girl standing beside Ro Fengjun scolded angrily.
Everyone was discussing with each other.
Just then, Zhou You sneered and said, "Such a trivial matter is disrupting my rest, how boring."
He turned around and left.
"That's right, I thought something had happened. Anyway, nothing is lost, let's go to sleep." Another person yawned, "It frightened me, I thought there was another upheaval in this hall."
"Believe it or not, this mountain is the least dangerous I have ever climbed," someone else said.
Yin Mingyao turned around and said to everyone, "Alright, let's go back and rest. We'll figure out how to get out tomorrow."
Xu Lingshan glanced back at Luo Fengjun. At this moment, everyone turned and left, leaving only her and the girl who had been speaking up for her, with a very angry expression on her face.
He sighed in his heart, once the danger did not involve himself, everyone scattered like birds and beasts.
However, was that archer a thief?
With such impressive archery skills, why would he choose to be a thief?
He walked behind and walked back. He heard Yan Qiuling yawned loudly and said, "That Yin Xiaomo is really a flatterer. When Luo Fengjun lost something, she shouted even louder than Luo Fengjun."
Mei was surprised and asked, "Is she Yin Xiaomo?"
"Yes, have you seen her for the first time?" Yan Qiuling shook her head with a disapproving tone, "Luo Fengjun is really unlucky. He actually has such a cousin."
"I...I heard that her background is very tragic," Mei spoke, "Her whole family was wiped out, only she escaped because she was staying at her aunt's house at the time."
Speaking of this matter, they both seemed to have some lingering fear and stopped talking.
Xu Lingshan is not someone from their world at all. He has never heard of these things before, and couldn't help but ask, "Clan extermination? Can cultivators be wiped out too?"
"Even immortals fight," Yan Qiuling waved her hand. "Don't mention it. We have been investigating this case for so many years, but the Luo family, with their great abilities, have not found any clue, and the murderer has also disappeared."
Song Xian held Yan Qiu Ling's shoulder and said, "Alright, let's go to sleep. We will continue looking for the way up the mountain tomorrow."
This seemed like just a small episode, and tranquility once again filled the hall.
Yin Ming sat cross-legged on the ground, closing his eyes to rest.
Outside the hall, the mountain breeze whispered.
Xu Lingshan had already closed his eyes, ready to take a rest, but in this absolute silence, he heard something unusual.
Like...
With a "hiss", Xu Lingshan zipped up the tent again.
Yin Mingyao opened his eyes immediately and asked, "What happened?"
Xu Lingshan's face turned grave as he said, "Someone has died."
Yin Ming's face showed a suspicious look: "What? How did you know?"
Xu Lingshan extended a finger and tapped his own head, "Perceived it."
He had formed a peculiar connection with this grand temple, able to hear all the sounds inside.
Just as I heard the strange noise earlier.
Including the sound of everyone's breathing.
And the dying gasps of that person just now.
At this moment, Yin Mingyao finally smelled the faint smell of blood in the air.
"Ah!" On this night, the tranquility within the grand hall was broken for the second time by someone's scream.
