Qing Yan's usually expressionless face became a bit stern, "These people are definitely not as simple as they seem."
"That's natural. Most evil cults develop followers either to rebel or to gain money. This Yeliang Kingdom is not a rich and powerful place. If they were doing it for money, they could open up business routes with the Western Regions in advance. But in this regard, the Ye Luo Sect has done nothing. Starting a rebellion? It is simply a fantasy for these rabble to overthrow Shenglin City." Mu Lingbo complained while analyzing.
"Perhaps it's just because the sky is high here and the emperor is far away, and the earth is the king?"
Mu Lingbo sneered, "Even if that's the case, what's the purpose? If they just wanted to control this small country, they had already achieved their goal. The country's leader was completely under their control, but they didn't take advantage of it. What kind of actions, but they have been keeping a low profile. I even checked their treasury and found that everything was normal."
Qing Yan thought for a while, "Girl, have you ever thought about why there are so many children over there?"
"More than just thinking about it, I naturally checked it out directly. Most of these children have no adults at home. The so-called sky lantern blessings every month are all for their parents to come back with perfect merit as soon as possible. Do you know where their parents are? "Mu Lingbo stretched out his finger and pointed to the north of the city, "That's where the Ye Luo Sect is. These people are all selected as devout believers to accumulate merit for the Ye God."
"What does it mean to accumulate merit? Is it to become a monk like a Buddhist?"
"That's just a nice way of saying it." Mu Lingbo said with a cold face, "Who knows what they are doing. The people left behind are all old, weak, women and children. I guess it must be manual labor."
"I'm afraid this ghost clan member is already in danger." Qing Yan said deeply, "Ye Luo Sect? I'll go over there at night to investigate."
"There is a formation over there, and these people who are pretending to be ghosts are not completely incapable. I have been worried that I will not let the snake in. Now that they have captured the person we want, they have to go even if they break in." She glanced at him. A glimmer of cold light, "But you must be well prepared. The Yeluo Sect has been deeply embedded in Yeliang Kingdom for many years. Although they have fooled a group of fools, they have some things that are lacking in Cangyao."
"What is the girl saying?"
"For example, the treasure master. I was surprised when I first arrived in Yeliang. The locks on the gates of this forgotten little poor country were all made by the white flame treasure master. Later, I thought about their extremely wide range of formations in the entire north of the city. , but it’s not that strange. Who knows what kind of people are inside. Especially because... there are a lot of spiritual fruits growing inside."
"This is a bit strange. It's not surprising that there are spiritual fruits, but there are not many places where a large number of spiritual fruits grow. Most of them are in remote and dangerous places, so they are precious."
Mu Lingbo thought, "This was discovered by the thousand-year-old raccoon dog. Zhaocai sneaked into the north of the city at the beginning and did not eat the spiritual fruit. Later, I didn't know that it found a new place and came back full of food every day. It has never been discovered.”
Qing Yan said, "I'll make preparations, find clues and report back to the girl."
"Wait a moment." Mu Lingbo pointed his toes and moved back and forth at a very fast speed. There was already a furry and round little beast in his hand.
Zhaocai had a long face to express his displeasure at being caught, and looked around with his furry head looking for Xiaobao to save his life.
