Chapter 240 Why is it him?
Ruan Xihe seemed to sense something. She suddenly turned around and looked into the distance.
But behind him was only a desolate night.
She turned her eyes slightly, pondered for a while, and then looked away.
Jimo Qianyi also squatted down. He condensed a layer of spiritual power, attached it to his palm, and swept over the bodies of the five people.
"Not like."
Jimo Qianyi withdrew his hand and said lightly.
"What's not similar?" Xiao Yin didn't understand.
Ruan Xihe stood up from the ground and explained, "Qian Yi means that these people have nothing to do with the mummy incident, and the murderer is not the same person."
"Little Junior Sister, what you mean is that someone is looking for revenge on them? Then wouldn't our clues be lost again?"
Ruan Xihe nodded softly.
Xiao Yin frowned, "In this case, we won't know what they did during the day, right?"
"Not only that." Jimo Qianyi's face looked a little bad. "If we can't find the murderer behind this, the Crazy Alliance will probably point the finger at Qingcheng. Then I'm afraid Qingcheng will suffer a disaster of being destroyed."
The senior brother also had a worried look on his face. "That's difficult. The Crazy Alliance has been acting rather overbearingly and unreasonably outside, and has provoked countless sects. For the moment, I really can't think of who attacked them."
Ruan Xihe interrupted the conversation of several people.
"Let's go back to the inn first."
After returning to the inn, the other three teams also came back one after another. A group of people gathered together and told each other what they had found out today.
"But why can't we find the captain?" A senior sister asked worriedly, "Senior Sister Liu said that the captain was waiting for us, but we can't find the captain. Do you think the captain has been killed..."
Another senior brother interrupted her, "Pfft, ptff, ptff, don't say unlucky words so late at night."
The panic of not being able to find the captain hung over everyone's hearts. In addition, today's investigation outside had not yielded any results, so everyone's faces were not very good.
They all subconsciously looked at Ruan Xihe, waiting for her to speak.
Unconsciously, they have regarded Ruan Xihe as the backbone of this team.
Being stared at by everyone, Ruan Xihe did not seem anxious or panicked. Instead, he smiled with his eyes curved.
"Everyone, don't be in a hurry, eat something first."
Her smile seemed to have a special power that made everyone feel calm and relaxed.
But everyone was puzzled. If the innkeeper had disappeared, where would the food come from? Was the junior sister just trying to comfort them?
Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door of the inn.
Ruan Xihe ran downstairs and opened the door quickly.
Outside the door, there were a dozen maids standing, each holding a plate of food in their hands. After Ruan Xihe opened the door, the food was placed on the dining table on the first floor of the inn.
After sending the maid away, Ruan Xihe waved to everyone.
"Come down to eat."
Everyone went downstairs, and a dozen people just filled the dining table.
But they looked at the steaming food on the table and were hesitant to eat it, feeling a sense of resistance in their hearts for no reason.
With so many mummies appearing in Qingcheng, who knows if there is anything wrong with these dishes?
Without waiting for them to finish thinking, Ruan Xihe took the lead in picking up the chopsticks, picked up a small piece of pork ribs and put it into his mouth.
Soon, she picked up pork elbow, chicken leg, lamb leg...
"Junior sister, you..." The senior brother beside her looked at her worriedly.
Without waiting for their senior brother to finish speaking, Xiao Yin and Jimo Qianyi also picked up their chopsticks and each picked up a piece of food and put it into their mouths.
Ruan Xihe responded with a smile: "Don't worry, Senior Brother, you won't turn into a mummy after eating it."
The senior brother choked.
Everyone choked.
The junior sister not only paid for the food out of her own pocket, but also took the lead and tested the poison herself. They were so moved.
The aroma of the food rushed into their noses, and seeing Ruan Xihe eating so happily, they all picked up their chopsticks and devoured the food.
Ruan Xihe took a quick look and saw that everyone had picked up their chopsticks, and she smiled.
After eating, Ruan Xihe looked at everyone and spread out his hands.
"Junior Sister, what do you mean?" Everyone looked at her in confusion.
Ruan Xihe said seriously, "After dinner, of course you have to pay for it."
She ordered this meal at the restaurant when she returned to the inn. You wouldn't think that she paid for everyone's meal out of her own pocket, right?
Senior brothers and sisters: “…” Withdraw the feeling of being touched.
After dinner, everyone returned to their rooms.
Not long after, there was a knock on her door, and it was Xiao Yin outside.
Xiao Yin got straight to the point, "Ruan Ruan, I think Qingcheng is extremely strange. Just in case, I decided to give you the acceleration shoes. Don't worry, I have already made a second improvement to it when I was in the spirit boat..."
"boom--"
Ruan Xihe closed the door expressionlessly.
Xiao Yin was frustrated and had to leave in disappointment, but he did not forget to touch the second-improved acceleration shoes in his hand.
Two hours later.
Ruan Xihe opened the window and looked outside.
It was pitch black outside. There were no stars in the sky. Occasionally, one or two pale paper lanterns glowed on the ground, which looked extremely creepy.
She flipped over and went out of the window, landing steadily on the ground, then jumped to the roof of the tallest building in the city center.
Ruan Xihe closed his eyes lightly and placed his middle finger on his forehead.
As her practice of Blood Gua deepened, the scope of her exploration had expanded a lot. In an instant, all the scenery of Qingcheng appeared in her mind.
Just when she wanted to investigate the weirdness in detail, a young man with a sturdy figure and imposing aura suddenly popped up in her mind.
Seeing the young man's position, Ruan Xihe's eyes suddenly opened and he turned to look at the street below.
On the street, the young man turned his back to her, holding a sword in his hand, and ran towards an inn at a very fast speed.
Ruan Xihe glanced at the name of the inn. It was the inn that the young boy had mentioned as having closed its doors for no reason.
She felt a little distracted and followed the young man.
The inn covers a large area and has a backyard.
The young man came to the outside of the yard and jumped onto the wall, but he did not go in. Instead, he quietly crawled along the wall, ready to wait for an opportunity to act.
But suddenly, the boy seemed to have exposed his whereabouts. He hurriedly jumped down from the courtyard wall, then turned around and ran away.
The moment the boy turned around, a white mist stretched out from the yard behind him, chasing after him and illuminating his face.
Seeing the boy's appearance, Ruan Xihe's pupils shrank slightly.
Why is it him?
