Chapter 145: The Disappeared Zhao Feng
A few days later.
The mission team that Xiaoyue Sect went out, Huang Yun, Xu Zhi, Xiao Yuan, Zhao Feng, and Lin Fan, finally arrived at their destination.
Xingjiazhuang.
This is an isolated secluded mountain villa, with very little contact with the outside world.
It is impossible for ordinary people to find Xingjiazhuang, but the "Xiaoyue Sect", as a transcendent sect that controls the Xiangyun Kingdom, does not have any power in the territory that can escape its sight.
A mile or two apart, the five of them stood above the valley, looking down on the mountain villa below.
The entire Xingjiazhuang, with a radius of more than ten miles, was terrifyingly quiet, and almost no sound could be heard.
Suddenly, the area seemed to be transformed into an infernal ghost domain.
A group of five people all felt a strange aura and did not move.
From the intelligence, it was learned that Xingjiazhuang was shrouded in a strange plague, and more than half of the humans in the village died.
In addition, the owner of the village, the "torture process", a strong man in the Holy Realm at the same level as Guangjun Hou, also died accidentally.
"Zhao Feng, Lin Fan, the two of you go to inquire about the situation in the villa. ”
Team leader Huang Yun commanded.
In a five-person team, Huang Yun is the leader, and he is also the highest cultivator in the team.
Along the way, all kinds of troublesome errands, Huang Yun ordered Zhao Feng and Lin Fan, who were the lowest cultivators.
A trace of coldness flashed in Xu Zhi's eyes, staring at Zhao Feng and the others who were far away.
Zhao Feng and Lin Fan divided into two directions and rushed towards the villa.
Rise!
Zhao Feng's figure leaped to the top of the stone wall of the villa, and looked down on the entire villa from top to bottom.
He pulled open the silver blue blindfold slightly, revealing a slit in his left eye, and the blue pupils flashed with a sharp luster, scanning the entire Xingjiazhuang.
Swish!
In an instant, Zhao Feng imprinted the entire trespassing "topographic map" in his mind.
In this way, his control over the topography of Xingjiazhuang, especially the macroscopic one, is probably a little clearer than that of the natives here.
From the mission information, it is known that the plague in the mountain villa has a lethal threat to solid sevenfolds and above, and the threat is reduced to sevenfolds and above. As powerhouses of the Mortal Saint Realm, ordinary plagues naturally could not affect them.
Therefore, Zhao Feng's movements, without half a minute of hesitation, flew into the villa.
In fact, the situation in the villa, Zhao Feng already knew everything through the sweep of his left eye.
He is just putting on a show now, perfunctory to Huang Yun and Xu Zhi behind him.
Inside the lodge, most of the area, there is a dead silence, almost lifeless.
Occasionally, I saw a few human beings, cultivating around the seventh level of martial arts, all of them were dying, their eyes were gloomy, and they were lying sickly.
Zhao Feng's left eye swept again, and found that these people who were plagued had a trace of lilac aura in their bodies, which melted into the viscera qi and blood, corroding vitality.
As he deepened, Zhao Feng approached the core of the villa, where there was a mansion covering an area of more than ten acres, which was the owner's mansion.
In the owner's house, there are a lot of live mouths.
There are many martial arts powerhouses above the seventh level in the mansion, and Zhao Feng's sharp left eye even captured the only old man who has escaped the mortal realm.
"If you guessed correctly, this person should be the housekeeper of Xingjiazhuang and the client of this mission. ”
Zhao Feng thought to himself.
After a while, Lin Fan came from the other side and talked with the housekeeper of Xingjiazhuang.
"The old man's surname is Li, he is the housekeeper of the villa, and he has seen two masters of the sect. ”
When the old housekeeper learned that the two of them were coming, he burst into tears for a while.
Immediately, the old butler began to tell the beginning and development of the plague, including the beginning and end of the death of the owner.
The plague was from half a year ago, unknowingly, into the villa, and now it has enveloped the entire Xingjiazhuang. Fortunately, this Xingjiazhuang is isolated from the world, in the barren mountains and forests, and the plague has not spread to other areas.
The owner of the village was sentenced to death a month ago.
"It was one night, and the owner of the farm went out alone, in the woods a few miles away from the mansion, fighting with people, and there was a lot of movement. By the time we arrived, the owner was dead......"
Steward Li looked reminiscing and frightened, and explained what had happened.
Speaking of the worst, he pounced and knelt on the ground: "Ask the two sect masters to help find out the source of the plague and arrest the murderer!"
After listening to this, Zhao Feng couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Outwardly, the death of the owner of the farm, with the outbreak of the plague, was in a period of time.
The mastermind behind the scenes should be someone, or a powerful force.
can create such a terrible plague, and can kill the mortal double powerhouse, the person who made the attack may be a cultivator of a foreign sect.
Because in the country, there has not been such a plague, but in the surrounding countries, I have occasionally heard of it.
These are all consistent with intelligence analysis.
So now there is only one person left, why does the murderer want to target Xingjiazhuang and the owner?
Zhao Feng immediately thought of two words: vendetta!
Not much.
Huang Yun and the three of them also came to the mansion in the center of the villa.
Lin Fan reported the situation to him.
"Go to that woods of battle. ”
Huang Yun's eyes flashed.
That forest is where the owner fought the murderer.
In the woods, the traces of the battle were not damaged, apparently deliberately left.
Zhao Feng stood in the woods, with a strange feeling, and frowned.
He pulled back the blindfold slightly, and his left eye swept quickly through the woods, without making a sound.
Huang Yun's eyes flickered, and he analyzed: "Looking at the situation, this battle is thrilling, the strength of the murderer should be on par with the owner, and it may be the peak of the double heaven." ”
"Senior Brother Huang is right. ”
Xu Zhi and Xiao Cheng immediately echoed.
Along the way, Xu Zhi and Xiao Cheng were both led by Huang Yun.
Zhao Feng and Lin Fan have no right to speak for the time being.
Subsequently, Huang Yun offered to see the body of the owner.
The body of the owner of the village was buried half a month ago, and now the grave is to be dug and the coffin is opened, which is naturally opposed by the two young owners.
Xu Zhi glared coldly, and the spiritual oppression of the Mortal Double Heaven made the two young village owners pale, and they suddenly fell to the ground.
The two young village owners are just solid ** heavy cultivation, how can they have the power to resist?
Soon, Zhao Feng and the others saw the rotting and smelly corpse of the owner.
The corpse's shoulders and chest were shattered in several places, and there were some scratches in other parts.
From the corpse, several people didn't see the clues, after all, the owner's face and body couldn't be seen clearly.
Only Zhao Feng, his eyes flickered slightly, and he didn't speak, even if he raised any objections, it was difficult not to accept them.
On that day, a group of five people searched around the villa for a long time, but there was no progress.
"Tonight, we will stay in the Zhuang's Mansion. Zhao Feng, Lin Fan, you are in charge of patrolling at night. ”
Huang Yun commanded indifferently.
He is the leader of the team, and the other members should follow his orders in principle.
Even, the team leader has a certain amount of power to distribute task rewards.
Zhao Feng and Lin Fan glanced at each other, and at ten o'clock in the night, they "kept vigil" in the mansion.
"Senior Brother Zhao, what have you discovered about the plague and murderers in Xingjiazhuang?"
Lin Fan asked.
"Nope. ”
Zhao Feng smiled.
Lin Fan always felt that Zhao Feng seemed to have discovered something. Among the few people, only this blue-haired and one-eyed boy made him a little unable to see through.
Swish!
In the night wind, a ghostly black shadow flashed away from the corner outside the mansion.
What people!
Lin Fan exclaimed in surprise, alarming the three Huang Yun in the mansion.
Including the housekeeper, the two young owners, woke up from a deep sleep.
"I just spotted a dark shadow and fled in that direction!"
Lin Fan hurriedly said.
Shadow?
When Huang Yun heard this, his eyes lit up, if he could catch the murderer, there would be an additional reward.
"Chase!"
His figure jumped, like a cyan afterimage, and he crossed one or two hundred meters in the air.
Xiao Cheng and Lin Fan could barely see Huang Yun's figure.
Huang Yun, as the leader of the inner door detached from the fan, his strength is really extraordinary.
Under the leadership of Huang Yun, everyone chased after him.
Soon, Huang Yun saw a ghostly black shadow in front of him, only a little slower than himself.
"Where to run!"
Huang Yun shouted vigorously, surrounded by a layer of red true power, causing a violent wind, like a gale of wind, the distance was getting closer and closer.
"Assert ......"
The ghostly black shadow, with a strange laugh, scurried into a forest.
The forest was the place where he had been during the day, and the owner of Xingjiazhuang died in it.
Huang Yun stopped in the woods, his face wary, and did not enter immediately.
The few people who came later did not dare to move.
"Lin Fan, Zhao Feng, you go into the woods to investigate, and we will take care of it later. ”
Huang Yun rolled his gaze and ordered indifferently.
When Lin Fan heard this, he became a nameless fire, this Huang Yun wanted to use the two of them as cannon fodder?
"Do you dare to disobey the leader's orders?"
Xu Zhi said coldly on the side.
Xiao Yan sneered and did not say anything.
In front of the woods.
A team of five, stuck in a brief stalemate.
"Well, let me lead the way. ”
Zhao Feng opened his mouth without being salty.
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned.
A normal person should understand that the mysterious black shadow, deliberately leading everyone into the woods, must have some attempt.
What's more, the owner of the village died in this forest.
"If you hesitate any longer, the clue to the murderer will be broken. ”
Zhao Feng pursed his lips and smiled.
He has green hair, which also flutters in the night wind, and his eyes are calm, looking strange and mysterious.
"Good. ”
Huang Yun and Xu Zhi glanced at each other and nodded in agreement.
Lin Fan wanted to say something, but swallowed the words in his mouth under Zhao Feng's smiling motion.
Boom!
Zhao Feng's figure flickered, turning into a silent shadow, and the phantom was heavy, leaping into the woods.
"Hey, this kid is pretty good. ”
Huang Yun showed a hint of surprise and hurriedly pursued behind.
Zhao Feng led the way in front, and the four people behind, keeping a certain distance, followed one after another.
Several people have escaped from the Holy Realm and have a certain ability to see at night, but in the woods in the middle of the night, their vision is far worse than that of daytime.
"Over there!"
Zhao Feng suddenly saw a ghostly black shadow and hurriedly accelerated to chase after him.
"Don't let him run!"
Huang Yun vaguely saw the black shadow, and his heart was full of joy.
Swish!
Everyone saw Zhao Feng's speed increase, and then a flower in front of him melted into the night.
"Senior Brother Zhao!"
"Senior Brother Zhao, where are you!"
Several people shouted a few times, but in the dead night, there was no response.
Zhao Feng seemed to be swallowed by the night.
"Could it be that Zhao Feng has already suffered misfortune?"
Xu Zhi's heart was full of mixed joys and sorrows.
The four of them were nearby, and they searched for a long time, but they didn't find Zhao Feng's shadow.
"It's all your fault, greedy for life and afraid of death! Senior Brother Zhao is only fourteen years old, and you let him take the lead. ”
Lin Fan said angrily.
Despite this, Lin Fan always felt that Zhao Feng's disappearance was a little unusual.
"Team Leader Huang, this forest is too weird, let's retreat first and come back during the day. ”
Xiao Yuan proposed.
Huang Yun and Xu Zhi nodded their heads when they heard this.
"Hahaha...... Want to run, don't even think about leaving!"
A strange laugh echoed through the woods.
Rumble~
The whole forest shook violently in the field of vision, as if the ground was cracked by a landslide.
Not good!
The four of them were nervous, and their faces were pale.
