"Not bad, really good. The quantity should be almost enough now..." In the black mist, an old and terrifying voice sounded, like the sound of metal rubbing against stone!
The next moment, this black mist galloped away into the distance and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye!
.........
Nanyun City is the city closest to Nanyun Wasteland in Dachu. Although it is not large in scale, it still has a population of over one million.
This incident of mortal disappearance occurred within a few thousand miles of Nanyun City.
Almost every village has been affected, and many adult men in the village have disappeared!
At this moment, Ding Lei, the city lord of Nanyun City, was staying in the city lord's mansion, drinking wine wantonly, accompanied by several beauties in simple clothes.
It's not that Ding Lei doesn't know about the disappearance of mortals, he just doesn't care about the life and death of these mortals at all!
"Lord City Lord, more than a hundred mortals from nearby villages have disappeared recently. Dragon City has sent shadow guards to investigate. Why are you not in a hurry at all?" Standing next to Ding Lei, someone stood still.
A middle-aged man asked with a worried look on his face.
"They're just mortals. There's nothing to be anxious about. Let the Shadow Guards investigate if they want!" After hearing this, Ding Lei looked nonchalant and poured a sip of wine into his mouth.
For him, he really doesn't care about the life and death of mortals, and he thinks it has nothing to do with him.
No matter how many mortals are missing, he will not be worried at all!
"But sir... I heard that the person leading the shadow guard this time has a rather big background..." The middle-aged man was still worried and said worriedly again.
"What a big background? I'm just a Shadow Guard captain. How big a background can I have? The city lord is a member of the Ding family!" After hearing this, Ding Lei became furious and immediately smashed a table in front of him!
Although the Ding family is not a top family in Longcheng, it is still a very powerful force, especially Ding Lei's father, who holds an important official position in Dachu!
To be honest, his position as city lord was arranged by his father using his connections!
"Yes, yes... you are right..." Seeing this, the middle-aged man was so frightened that he did not dare to say anything immediately.
Looking at Ye Luo, the three of them with Yan Jing have arrived in Nanyun City.
"Captain, where do you think we should start our investigation?" Yan Jing asked with a serious face as soon as he entered the city.
In any case, Ye Luo is also their captain, so this investigation mission must be led by Ye Luo.
"Go to the tavern for a drink first!" Ye Luo raised his eyebrows, and then walked towards the tavern in the city!
"Two drinks? Captain, what do you mean?"
"I can't understand it either. Let's follow him and take a look first!"
"I told you earlier, this person has no ability!"
Seeing this, Yan Jing and the other three people frowned and immediately started discussing in a low voice.
In their opinion, Ye Luo didn't take this mission seriously at all, he was just here for fun!
But they had no choice. He was the prince's younger brother and the empress' godson. With such an identity and background, he really couldn't be offended!
Nanyun City is a small town, but the taverns in the city are quite large. There are crowds of people inside, and the business seems to be good.
"Nanyun Tavern looks good, let's go in and have a couple of drinks first!" Seeing this, Ye Luo murmured and walked in.
"Please, sir, what would you like to drink?" As soon as I entered the door, a waiter greeted me with a smile on his face.
"Bring in all your best wine and food!" Ye Luo didn't dare to look at it. He waved his hand and took out hundreds of spirit stones from the storage bag and handed them over. At the end, he didn't forget to say: "This is
This is a reward for you, find me a quiet place!"
"Okay, sir, please come over here!" Seeing Ye Luo's generous offer, the waiter smiled even more and immediately bowed and invited Ye Luo and others in.
You know, if he works as a waiter here, he may not be able to earn hundreds of spiritual stones in more than ten years!
"It's really generous to take action. It seems that our captain is still a wealthy owner!"
"It must have been given by the prince. Anyway, he must not be short of money to spend it!"
Seeing this scene, Yan Jing and the other three began to discuss quietly again.
No matter what they say, Ye Luo's series of actions have really made their impression of Ye Luo worse and worse!
A second-generation official and a playboy with no real abilities. This is what the three of them think of Ye Luo now.
Soon, the waiter came over with wine and dishes with a smile on his face, placed them on the table respectfully, and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please be patient. If you have any orders, please call me!"
"
"Boy, I am a foreign businessman. I heard that your Nanyun City has not been very peaceful recently!" Ye Luo first poured himself a glass of wine, then drank it all in one gulp, and then said slowly.
"Look at what you said, sir, Nanyun City is very peaceful!" The waiter waved his hand and denied it.
"I'm just curious. Tell me the truth. You will definitely be indispensable!" Seeing that the waiter refused to tell the truth, Ye Luo immediately smiled coldly, waved his hand and took out a large piece of spiritual stone from the storage bag and placed it on the table.
superior.
This large piece of spiritual stone is worth at least a thousand!
Seeing this, the waiter's eyes glowed with greed, and he put the spirit stone into his sleeves with a smile, and then said: "It's easy to talk, sir, you don't know something. The villages near Nanyun City have been...
There are adult men missing, and in several villages, even the adult men are gone. There is no one to work, and the land is all barren!"
"They are all adult men? How many people are missing in total?" Ye Luo then asked.
"Without exception, they are all adult men. There must be nearly 200 of them in total!"
"Have you ever heard who did it?" After hearing this, Ye Luo frowned and then continued to ask.
It seems that the information I knew before is still slightly biased.
The confidence that Longcheng gained before was that about a hundred people were missing, but the waiter said that there were nearly two hundred people!
If what the waiter said is true, it means that in the past few days, people have continued to disappear!
"I don't know. Some people say it's a monster. It catches people with a black cloud. It catches people in the air and leaves!" The waiter in the shop shook his head, and there was a little bit of excitement in his eyes as he spoke.
A look of fear.
"Black mist? It seems that the monk did it right!" Hearing this situation, Ye Luo couldn't help but sigh.
In line with his judgment, all this should be the work of an evil cultivator!
