In the secluded alley.

Lin Qi touched the painful neck, his face turned pale and he was still scared.

Have you met a ghost again?

The speed is even more terrifying than yesterday!

He shivered, quickly left here and rushed towards the Great Bear Temple.

On a roof, Zhang Yuan fell into deep thought.

Things have been asked clearly.

The missing population case in Linjia Village was actually suppressed by Prince Xuan.

Chunshen City is the territory of Prince Xuan. Any memorial sent to the court must be approved by Prince Xuan’s Mansion before it can be sent to the capital.

It was Prince Xuan who directly seized the missing population in Linjia Village!

Why did he do this?

Does Prince Xuan have any secrets that cannot be told?

Or, does he have another identity?

Things are getting more and more confusing.

Zhang Yuan felt it was necessary to explore this Linjia Village.

There is definitely something weird about so many people disappearing into it.

And this Prince Xuan is probably not simple either.

call!

He thought of it and did it, used his light skills, and rushed towards Linjia Village.

Linjia Village is located in a mountain range more than 50 miles east of Chunshen City. It has almost no connection with the outside world. Only a big river flows through the village from the upper part.

Zhang Yuan had already asked about the way from Baochao.

He ran all the way, and at a fast speed, he approached the village in about half an hour.

Although Ma Zhenba and others were riding horses, they were obviously much behind their speed. When he was halfway, he caught up with Ma Zhenba and others.

Of course, he did not show up directly, but shuttled through the dense forest path on one side, so Ma Zhenba and others didn't even know that he was here too.

The destination had been reached, and Zhang Yuan stopped.

Suddenly, he frowned and sniffed his nose gently.

A faint smell of blood came from the air, mixed with a slight odor, as if it was the smell of some meat falling out after it deteriorated.

His eyes flashed, and he walked along the direction where the breath came, entering a dense forest outside the village.

The breath became stronger and stronger, and soon after, pieces of condensed blood were found on the ground.

Sweeping forward, a bloody corpse was lying there, motionless, with her face facing Zhang Yuan, her face pale and her eyes wide. She didn't know how long she had been dead.

He only had the upper body, and his lower body had long been unknown where he went, and his chest was torn apart, as if he had been bitten by a wild beast, and his internal organs were empty, and all his internal organs disappeared.

Zhang Yuan frowned and walked closer

It seems that this is the Prince Xuan?

The body was discovered by villagers from the next village this morning. No one dared to move, waiting for the yamen to collect the body.

After squatting down and observing for a while, Zhang Yuan suddenly showed a strange look.

Prince Xuan’s palms were extremely strange, and the palms were covered with calluses, which obviously did not look like the hands of a prince.

Has he practiced Kung Fu?

Or palm technique?

Zhang Yuan searched at his body, touched it for a long time, but couldn't find anything.

He stood up and suddenly looked behind Prince Xuan.

A trace of dragged past extended from a distance, dripping blood. It seemed that someone had pulled Prince Xuan's body here from a distance, and it seemed like he had crawled over by himself.

Zhang Yuan walked forward along the trace.

The sound of the roar of the river suddenly came.

Behind this forest, a huge river is waving, extremely wide, with waves splashing on the river surface, with an unspeakable coldness.

Opposite the river is a low village.

The dark gray buildings were close together, depressing and deep. I don’t know if I had any illusion, but he felt that the weather above Linjia Village was also different from other places.

The clouds there are extremely thick, and they appear gloomy in broad daylight, like thick bedding, covering Linjia Village, as if they can't even shine on the sun.

The traces on the ground disappeared on the bank of this river.

It seemed that someone dragged Prince Xuan's body out of the river.

It was like Prince Xuan himself climbing out of the river and climbing to the dense forest before he died tragically.

Zhang Yuan frowned and suddenly looked upstream.

There, a simple wooden bridge runs across the banks and leads to the village.

He strode over.

Soon, I came to the other side of the bridge and entered the village. The village was not big. You could see that there were only hundreds of families around it.

Suddenly, Zhang Yuan frowned and his face changed.

The temperature here is completely different from that in other places!

It is at least seven or eight degrees lower than outside the village!

It’s early autumn outside, and it’s almost called late autumn here.

The difference is so big that it is incredible!

What's even more strange is that the whole village is extremely quiet, with no trace of insects or a bird crying, and even the sound of the breeze blowing the fallen leaves cannot be heard.

Absolute silence!

It's like a world with hearing isolation.

"It's really weird!"

Zhang Yuan looked cautious and walked towards the village. His internal energy flowed into his eyes and ears, and he kept his eyes alert. His eyes swept through the doors of the houses.

What's strange is that there is no sign of damage in the entire village. Some houses have large doors, and it seems that the owner has just left.

He moved his heart and walked into an open door.

This is a slightly wealthy family, with a spacious yard and amenities in the rooms, simple and orderly, without any mess.

The coffee table on the living room table was filled with tea and had not had time to drink it.

Next to it is a sewing basket, inside which is cut half-cut paper. It seems that half-cut is called out.

What’s even more strange is that there is no dust on the table and chairs!

According to the Baotiao Inquiry, all the people in Linjia Village were missing half a month ago and no one cleaned them for half a month. How could it be without dust?

Zhang Yuan looked cautious and suddenly walked towards the bedroom.

The bedroom is spacious and bright, and there are a few clothes that seem to have just been changed, which are casually placed on the chair.

In addition, it is a cabinet that is firmly locked.

Zhang Yuan crushed the cabinet lock and opened it, but saw that it contained some gold, silver and fine softness inside.

The people from this family seemed to have left on their own initiative. When they left, they were extremely calm and even had no choice but to clean up the gold, silver and soft materials.

All of this is simply weird.

Zhang Yuan frowned and slowly closed the cabinet.

"who?

Suddenly, his face changed, he suddenly turned around and looked out the window.

It was empty and there was nothing unusual.

Without thinking, he immediately chased after him, almost to the extreme.

call!

In an instant, I came to the yard, and the inner energy was circulating, and the spiritual sense of my eyes and ears was exerted to the extreme.

His face was surprised.

It was definitely not an illusion just now!

He was peeped at!
Chapter completed!
