Chapter Ninety-Six: The Ones Who Shouldn't Be

ps:ps: Thanks to "IUZZM" for the peace charm! Thanks to "happygo228" for the pink ticket!

The level of this kind of thing is very high, at least more than twenty levels higher than Ji Xiaoyan's current level, that is to say, such an ordinary mouse is also about seventy levels, which is one of the several monsters with relatively high strength that Ji Xiaoyan has encountered. It's just that although the level of this red-eyed purple-skinned rat is very high, it is not as intelligent as the high-level monsters that Ji Xiaoyan has seen before, and it is not as willing to take the initiative to cause trouble like those monsters.

Therefore, after Ji Xiaoyan and his group of people from the Qingshi Gate had been following the red-eyed purple-skinned mouse for a long time, at most, they saw the mouse stop vigilantly and look left and right, without any intention of taking the initiative to attack them.

"We've been walking for so long, we should be almost at the rat's nest, right?" Halfway through, a disciple of the Qingshi Sect said in a bit of a panic, and then whispered to Elder Qingyi in front of him: "Elder, what if we get to the rat's nest? If we are beaten, won't we be automatically sent to the door to die?"

"No!" Elder Qingyi moved the black robe that he had been wearing since he was poisoned, and after taking a deep breath of fresh air, he comforted the disciple of the Qingshi Gate: "We have followed that mouse so far this way, and we haven't seen it take the initiative to attack us, I think these rats are all human beings, I don't offend me, we just need to walk a short distance, find a place with a lot of mouse smell, and then find a fork in the road to enter......." After all, the strength of their elders is relatively high, and the other disciples are not! Anyway, they can't put all their own disciples here to die!

After the disciple of the Qingshi Sect received an affirmative reply from Elder Qingyi, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned his head with a smile and passed the word to the team behind him, just. When it reached the last Qingshi Sect disciple, an accident happened again.

"Who are you?!! The disciple of the Bluestone Gate who walked at the end was an NPC with relatively high strength, and he was also considered a top-notch one among the NPC disciples of the Bluestone Gate. Originally, the matter of spreading the word to him would have been over, but this person sometimes has some inertia. For example, in the past, this NPC disciple was followed by a group of disciples, so this also caused him to always like to look behind him when he spoke......

So, after Elder Qingyi's words came from the front. This senior disciple of the Qingshi Sect immediately turned his head back and was about to say something, but after turning his head, he suddenly reacted, and there should be no one behind him. But. This NPC disciple suddenly noticed that there was a figure behind him, about the same height as him!!, this NPC disciple immediately screamed, and then immediately pulled out the weapon in his hand. Looked warily at the figure.

"What's the matter? What's going on?" In the secret passage, which was originally quiet, there was a sudden loud shout, and the old man Qingmi was obviously startled, and immediately rushed towards the back of the team. When Ji Xiaoyan ran to the end of the line, all the disciples of the Qingshi Sect surrounded the figure that should not have appeared, and Ji Xiaoyan squeezed for a long time. Finally, I squeezed through the cracks in the human and saw clearly who the character who appeared out of thin air was.

It was a man who was barely well dressed, and of course this was "good". Just pointed to the tattered clothes on his body, and looking at the face and movements of the man in front of him, Ji Xiaoyan Yan suspected that this was just a child, or a child of the Juli clan.

"This ....... are you a child of the Juli clan?" said the identity of the figure in front of him in one sentence.

"Tsk......" The kid looked innocent and looked at the head of Qing Miao who was speaking. didn't respond, just continued to look at the Qingshi Sect disciple who had been standing at the end of the line. He smiled silly.

"Boss ......" Many disciples of the Qingshi Sect saw the child's honest appearance, and immediately turned their eyes to the head of Qingmiao, "Shall we arrest him?"

"Uncle Shi, when will this kid keep up with us?" Ji Xiaoyan gently pulled the old man Qingmi in a low voice, looked at him and asked, "Are we going to take him that or take him as a hostage?"

"Look at the senior brother in charge!" the old man replied lightly, and then walked directly to the last NPC disciple of the team, and asked him, "When will he follow you, do you know?"

"Uncle Shi, the disciple doesn't know!" As soon as the NPC disciple heard the words of the old man Qingmi, he immediately shook his head, and said with a slightly pale face: "It's all because the disciple is not good at learning, and I don't know if such a big child has been following me......."

"Now is not the time to talk about this!" Old man Qingmi frowned, and then sighed: "It's all our own fault for not being vigilant enough....... but it's good to find out now!!"

"Uncle Shi, what are we going to do now?" I don't seem to have any malicious intent when I look at this kid...... The NPC disciple glanced at the Juli Clan kid who had been looking at him and smiled, and said with some reluctance: "Uncle, we don't need to ....... him." If that child was caught sneaking up on him in the back and killed that child, he wouldn't have any pressure, but now if he looked at that child's innocent eyes looking at him, he still had to watch his fellow disciples and brothers, and even his uncles and elders kill such a child, he really couldn't do it.

When the old man Qingmi heard this, he didn't speak immediately, but glanced at the head of Qing Miao, and then said, "Listen to the arrangement of the head of the house!"

When the head of Qing Miao heard this, he sighed, and then said to everyone: "He's just a child, and now we haven't found any malicious intent on him, anyway, maybe he can be a hostage with him, buy us some time....... let's go, take him, let's continue to walk inside.......!"

"The disciple is here!" The NPC disciple who had been walking last immediately responded as soon as he heard the head of Qing Miao call him, and then he heard the head of Qing Miao continue: "Look at this child's eyes, it seems that he is very close to you, so you take him, walk in the middle, and look at a little ......"

"Yes, Master!" The NPC disciple named Lixiang immediately responded, and then called out tentatively to the child of the Juli clan: "Come here, come with me!"

"Ahh

Li Xiang originally wanted to let the child walk in front of him so that it would be easier to take care of him, but who knows, no matter how he moved, which child of the Juli clan would have to turn behind him and follow. So, after watching the old man Qingmi for a long time, they directly ordered Lixiang to follow the child of the Juli clan and let him follow him. Anyway, there are so many NPC disciples in the back, isn't it?

"Lixiang, ask the kid more on the way, when did he follow you, and where did he come from......." When the head of Qing Miao turned around and was about to continue to take the lead, he still whispered a few words to Lixiang, and after seeing him nod, he turned his head and beckoned the team to continue moving forward.

It's just that until Ji Xiaoyan and they found a fork in the road near the red-eyed purple-skinned rat group, Li Xiang couldn't ask anything from the mouth of the Juli Clan's child.

According to Lixiang, it seems that the child of the Juli clan can't speak, and can only understand some simple questions he says. Ask him any questions, except humming, and he can only use his hands to gestipulate.

"This intelligence is completely just the appearance of a child of a few years old!!" Ji Xiaoyan frowned a little after listening to the report from the old man Qingmi, "Didn't those people of the Juli Clan say that they have been locked up here for a long time? If this child has been following them, how can he not speak? Moreover, they are guarding the secret passage here, will they bring the child here, and they are not afraid of any danger?"

"Well, that's indeed the reason!" Old Man Qingmi nodded, and then explained to Ji Xiaoyan: "Senior Brother in charge also said so, so we think that this kid is very likely to have accidentally escaped into the secret passage." First of all, judging from his age, it is impossible for such a young child to come to the secret passage without an adult to take care of him. Unless it's lost with the adults, but in this secret passage, this kind of thing is basically impossible...... "If you really get lost with the adults, aren't the adult men of the Juli clan in the secret passage in a hurry to help find someone? If the child of the Juli clan in front of him encounters a monster, he will definitely not survive."

After squatting for two seconds, the old man continued: "Moreover, judging from the clothes on this kid, he has only been here for a long time. If you look at his clothes, there are basically not many stains on them, which are a little cleaner than all of us. So we now suspect that the child must have fallen from an unknown place......"

"In other words, apart from that fixed exit now, is there any other place where we can enter Qingcheng?" Ji Xiaoyan reacted quickly and said immediately. The NPCs of the Juli clan have said that the real secret passage exit has been sealed by the Qingwan City Lord. No one can get out of the secret passage or get in until the exit is unsealed!, of course, except for the openings that the Juli NPCs say can throw food. Thinking of this, Ji Xiaoyan couldn't help but look at the old man Qingmi again and asked, "Uncle Shi, do you say that it is possible that this child of the Juli clan fell from the so-called mouth that can throw down food?"
