I practiced with a cheat

Ansong County is very close to Changxing Sect, only less than 50 miles away.

It can basically be regarded as the front gate of Changxing Sect. Thanks to this, Ansong County has been very stable in the past few years, and there has been basically no disaster.

It has developed very well.

If it were usual, people would often go in and out of the city gate and travel to various places.

But now the city gate is very deserted.

There are only two or three soldiers guarding the city standing, and even ordinary pedestrians are very rare.

It is still summer, but they feel a little chilly.

If it is too "cold", it will really be cold.

Because there are so few people, and those who come in and out are basically familiar faces, the soldiers guarding the city are more and more perfunctory.

Most of the time, they just take a few more glances and judge the situation, and they won't care about anything else.

Squeak!

The sound of the wheels turning hard came, and it was an old man driving a donkey cart, pulling a cart of firewood and haystacks, slowly driving over. He seemed to have a good relationship with the soldiers guarding the city. When he passed by, he just chatted a few words and continued to go into the city.

No real inspection.

The old man drove the donkey cart and walked on the streets in the city, turning left and right, passing one road after another, and finally came to his backyard. After stopping the donkey cart, he went back to the house to drink water.

He muttered while walking, wondering: "Why is the firewood so heavy today? Is there too much water in it? It seems that I have to dry it for a few more days before I can sell it."

The old man left the backyard, and the cart full of firewood and haystacks suddenly moved, and a teenager of seventeen or eighteen years old came out from under the car.

It was Zhou Heng.

In order to avoid alerting the enemy, he did not come in directly and swaggered, but chose a relatively secret way to sneak in secretly.

After all, there are too few people coming in and out of Ansong County now. Once a stranger like him who has never been here shows up, he will be easily recognized.

In this case, before the source of the incident is truly found, it is a situation where the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, which is very disadvantageous.

Besides, Siming is unknown at this time.

If Siming dies because of alerting the enemy, Zhou Heng will feel very sorry.

And he will not get the extra reward in that case.

Zhou Heng moved silently and found a remote place in the backyard of this house that is not easy to be discovered and hid temporarily.

"This place is really full of ghosts." He frowned and knew the problem.

There are ghosts here!

-- Thanks to the bonus of spiritual attributes and the nourishment of Xiantian Gong, Zhou Heng's soul is already very powerful, and his ability to perceive ghosts has naturally become much stronger than before.

Therefore, as soon as he calmed down and concentrated his mind, he felt the powerful ghosts entrenched in Ansong County.

Then, he began to think about the disappearance of people in Ansong County and Lufeng County.

The task information sent by Zhoutian Patrol Division includes the situation of Ansong County and Lufeng County.

Since more than a month ago, people in Ansong County have been disappearing out of thin air, and there is no trace of them anymore, and they can't be found no matter what.

And it was silent, without any movement at all.

Many people woke up in the morning and found that their husbands, wives, children, parents, etc. disappeared.

The people here reported to the authorities, but the result was that several constables died, and the situation did not get any relief. Instead, it got worse, and more and more people disappeared faster.

At this point, the county lord had no choice but to report to the higher authorities and ask Wu Zongshan, the lord of Huangtong Mansion, to handle the matter.

In the end, Wu Zongshan notified Zhoutian Patrol Division of the matter in Ansong County.

Soon after, news came that something similar happened in Lufeng County.

So, Zhoutian Patrol Division sent a seventh-grade warrior code-named "Si Ming" to investigate here.

But after half a month, Siming has not been seen again.

She did not leave the city, and should still be in Ansong County. I just don't know whether she is hiding or has been captured.

After some thought, Zhou Heng decided to find Siming first.

After rescuing Siming and settling him down, he will conduct in-depth investigations on ghosts, so as to avoid Siming being hijacked by ghosts and being afraid to act rashly.

At the same time, if Siming can be found, he can also understand the situation of ghosts here in more detail.

Of course, in the process of finding people, the traces of ghosts can also be investigated, and the two are not contradictory.

It's just that at the beginning, Zhou Heng planned to focus on saving people first.

"However, if you want to save people, you have to find Siming's whereabouts first." Zhou Heng frowned slightly. He has no clues about this now. If he searches blindly, he may directly expose his whereabouts.

"Alas, the mask should really have a communication function, as well as a function of mutual positioning confirmation, so that it will be much easier to find each other."

Unfortunately, this can only be thought about.

Now the Zhoutian Patrol Division can't even transmit information from the mask to the star map, let alone real-time communication.

"Oh, there is a way!" Zhou Heng suddenly laughed, thinking: "Since it is inconvenient to find it deliberately, I can find it by 'accident'."

He took out the talisman that he kept close to his body to block the Yang Qi and put it into the Qiankun Jinpian that the Chunyang Palace provided to the true disciples.

In this way, the aura of his pure Yang body was no longer suppressed.

If Siming is injured by a ghost and cannot leave quickly, she carries ghost energy and follows the law of yin and yang aggregation. Even if Zhou Heng is just wandering around, he may encounter her.

If she was not injured by the ghost, it means that she has not encountered the ghost yet, or the ghost here is not capable of harming him. Even if she is exposed, it will not cause harm to her.

This method can be said to be the best of both worlds.

"It would be even easier if we could stumble across a ghost's lair." Zhou Heng's lips curled up slightly as he secretly thought, "Then we can go straight to Huanglong and destroy the ghosts here in one fell swoop."

Although his current strength is only about the same as the top ten in the human rankings, and he is invincible against sixth-level ghosts, this is only the level of his own strength.

There are still a bunch of special skill cards that have not been used up.

The five colored divine lights are still there.

…

Under the night, the moon is hidden and the stars are sparse.

The north of Ansong County is the most prosperous area. Many deep houses and compounds are built here. Alleys are intertwined with each other. Of course, there are also many idle houses.

Chen Yingyu was hiding in a remote woodshed in a compound. She was wearing a mask and a black shirt, and was using her internal energy to activate her qi and blood and expel the ghost energy entrenched in her body.

This situation has been going on for six or seven days.

Fortunately, the place was secluded enough, and few people came to the woodshed, so she was not discovered. Otherwise, she would have been forced to move to a hiding place, and she would have wasted several days of hard work.

"Huh..." Chen Yingyu exhaled a breath of turbid air, felt the situation inside her body, and felt a little happy, "The ghost energy has been eliminated a lot, and in three days at most, you can resume normal activities.

"We must report the situation here to the organization. There are actually a large number of ghosts gathered in this small county, and there is also a powerful ghost called the 'King'. It is extremely dangerous!"

She is the star envoy "Si Ming" sent here by Zhou Tian Xunjie Division to investigate the situation.

Originally, Chen Yingyu thought that there were just ordinary ghosts harming people. After all, the missing people were ordinary people. According to common sense, the ghosts here should not be strong.

But after coming here and actually encountering ghosts, she discovered that the entire Ansong County and the neighboring Lufeng County were actually just traps.

Just to catch people from Zhou Tian Xunjie Division!

The people in these two counties are not the purpose of these ghosts at all, but just bait. What these ghosts really want are the people of Zhoutian Xunjie Division.

It is precisely because of this that they only kidnap some ordinary people, but never attack the warriors with cultivation level, in order to create the illusion that the ghosts are not strong.

Avoid attracting the strong men from Zhou Tianxunjie Division.

At that time, Chen Yingyu encountered three seventh-grade ghosts. They were powerful and had strange abilities. Even though she was not weak and had the magical skills inherited by the Star Envoy, she was still difficult to defeat. She was injured by the ghost energy and had to risk her life to escape.

"I must resume contact with the organization as soon as possible, otherwise the organization will definitely send people over to investigate my whereabouts, but due to incomplete information, I'm afraid they won't send a sixth-grade person here.

"However, considering that I am missing, someone stronger than me should be sent here, maybe a person at the top of the seventh grade, a strong person in the initial meeting location, but even so, he is probably no match for those ghosts!

"You will die if you come here..."

Chen Yingyu bit her red lips lightly, feeling regretful in her heart.

In the past three years since I joined the Zhoutian Xunjie Division, every mission has gone smoothly, and I have gradually lost my vigilance. If it were in the past, I would definitely investigate carefully before taking action.

It won't be as unstable as it is now.

"It's useless to think too much, it's better to seize the time to get rid of the ghost energy." Chen Yingyu thought to herself, and was about to start circulating her inner energy again, but suddenly her ears twitched and she heard footsteps coming from outside.

Does anyone want to come to the woodshed?

Is it a ghost, or a servant of this house?

However, no matter who it is, I can't stay here anymore and must leave immediately.

Chen Yingyu made a decision immediately and wanted to leave through the window, but when she was about to move, she suddenly felt a coldness in her legs, and she lost the ability to move and became motionless.

"Oops, how come the ghost energy just happened to travel to both legs?!" She was shocked.

She had been severely injured before, and the ghost energy had invaded the blood vessels in her body. When these ghost energy passed through her legs, they would be unable to move.

Under normal circumstances, each time will be one hour apart.

It was exactly an hour since the last time, and she couldn't move.

"Let's first see who it is. If it's just a servant of the owner of the house, maybe we can still discuss it." Chen Yingyu said secretly: "If it's a ghost, he will have no choice but to escape at the expense of his own foundation."

Squeak!

At this moment, the woodshed door opened.

What caught Chen Yingyu's eyes was a tall and slender figure, wearing a purple robe, extremely luxurious, and wearing a mask with the face of a noble emperor on his face.

Behind this figure was a night sky without stars, but for some unknown reason, the moment he opened the woodshed door, all the clouds in the sky that blocked the stars and moonlight drifted away.

Then the starlight and moonlight poured down one after another, shining into the woodshed through the window, and at the same time it also shone on the masked man, making him full of mystery and nobility.

"Si Ming?" The man chuckled, seeming quite happy, "I'm here to save you."
