"Demons?" Tang Fengyi revealed a fearful expression.
Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly and asked, "Has anything strange happened in Jiang Capital recently?"
Tang Fengyi thought for a while and said, "Yes."
"There is a mass grave in the outskirts of West City. It used to be the burial ground of Jiang Capital. Those homeless people would sometimes fall dead on the side of the road and be thrown into the mass grave. Perhaps it is the work of demons. Recently, there have been many strange things happening in the mass grave. Many people have seen ghost flames flickering and heard women crying. "
Bai Xiaowen sighed and said, "The world is in chaos and bandits are everywhere. In this prosperous Jiang Capital, there are people displaced every day. Perhaps the woman crying that everyone heard was just a widow crying at the grave and not a ghost. "
Tang Fengyi shook his head and said, "Qianniu Zuo (official name) Brother Li sent people to take a look. However, the people who went never came back … Many people said that it was haunted. When Brother Li sent people again, no one was willing to go."
Bai Xiaowen suddenly received a notification.
"Special Side Mission: [Expiation of the Dead] activated."
"Mission Objective: Expiation of the dead in the mass grave in the outskirts of West City."
"Mission Difficulty: Data is in disorder. Unable to evaluate."
"Mission Duration: Data is in disorder. Unable to generate."
"Mission Reward: Data is in disorder. Unable to generate."
"Mission Hint: There is only a fine line between reality and illusion. A slight difference in thought will bring about a different result. "
Bai Xiaowen said, "According to Lord Tang, the mass grave in West City is indeed strange. We need to investigate it. However, we are new here and do not know the way. We hope that Lord Tang can send someone to guide us. "
Tang Fengyi asked the two gatekeepers. They shook their heads desperately and refused to go.
"Forget it. For the sake of the people of Jiang Capital, I will go." Tang Fengyi sighed.
Li Shuyi was a little impressed. He said in the team channel, "This Tang Fengyi is quite enlightened."
However, a strange look flashed across Bai Xiaowen's face. Then, it returned to normal. He said, "Lord Tang is righteous. We will do our best to protect Lord Tang's safety."
In the team channel, Bai Xiaowen said in a different tone, "Be careful. This Tang Fengyi is probably up to no good."
"Why?" Li Shuyi and Cecilia were puzzled.
"I just checked." Bai Xiaowen took a deep breath and said, "Do you know Tang Fengyi's true identity? He is not human! "
"Ah?!" 2。
His motive............ Fengyi is is a demon demon said said said mass grave in the mass grave in West City is haunted and led us.. His purpose........................ Fengyi............
.....................
"It doesn't look like it. If they wanted to trick us, they wouldn't have given us a mission," Bai Xiaowen said. "This mission to expiate the souls of the dead is quite similar to the special side mission in the White Ghost Realm …"
Spirit World characters, whether humanoid or demonic, as long as they sent missions to Awakened ones, it would at least mean that the other party was sincere and had a need in this regard, which would trigger the Spirit World's rules to generate missions.
Even demons could not bypass the rules of the Spiritual Realm and issue fake missions to deceive the Awakened. So far, the only one who could bypass the rules of the Spiritual Realm and issue fake missions was the mysterious Great Lord. And Tang Fengyi's real identity was just a demon, a zombie of the Corpse Devil Clan. Of course, it was impossible for him to do that.
"Then what should we do? Should we shed all pretense of cordiality and capture this guy?" Li Shuyi said, "Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty should be in Jiangdu City. If we capture this demon and offer it to him, it should be enough to prove our allegiance."
"There's no need for that." Bai Xiaowen's gaze was distant. "Just now, I also cast Insight on the two guards. Guess what? These two guards are also demons in disguise! "
Li Shuyi and Cecilia gasped. In order to hide the shock on their faces, they lowered their heads at the same time.
Bai Xiaowen continued, "This shows that … the current Jiang Capital is probably already a place occupied by demons."
"Are there no living people?" Li Shuyi's scalp went numb.
"The guards at the gate are all demons. This means that the number of demons is outrageous and has far exceeded the balance. There are probably no living people left … "
Bai Xiaowen said calmly, "Have you played werewolves before? When the number of humans in the city exceeds the number of werewolves, the balance can still be maintained. Every day, there will be discussions to identify werewolves and hang them. This is because humans still have the strength to capture werewolves! But when the number of werewolves is equal to or even more than the number of humans, the werewolves will directly slaughter the city and win! "
"Isn't Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty the biggest demon leader?" Li Shuyi asked.
"Very likely."
Bai Xiaowen gasped and said, "Under such circumstances, we shouldn't expose the demon's identity so easily, in case all the demons in the city come to gang up on us … Let's beat him at his own game and follow him to the mass grave on the outskirts of the western city! Let's see what he's up to. Anyway, with our strength, even if we encounter ordinary traps, we won't be afraid. We can totally kill this demon called Tang Fengyi in the mass grave! I think that after we kill him, we can trigger the real special side mission. "
Back when he first explored the White Ghost Domain, it was also when he killed the first Ghost Infant that he activated the special side mission.
The special side mission of the treasure land usually pointed to the source of the treasure land — the Space Stone. According to the hint that Bai Xiaowen had just received, the Space Stone of this treasure land was very likely to be the Dragon Golden Box!
The demon called Tang Fengyi's mission did not include information about the Dragon Golden Box. Bai Xiaowen determined that this was not the real special side mission of the treasure land, but Tang Fengyi's own request.
The three of them followed Tang Fengyi all the way to the west.
The sky was getting dark.
The mass grave was located in the western suburbs, about two to three kilometers away from Jiang Du City. It wasn't close, but it wasn't far either.
When they got closer, they could clearly feel that something was different. Not only were there faint fox cries and dancing white phosphorescent flames, but there were also the occasional cries of a woman. Even the breeze that brushed against their faces carried a hint of coldness.
Li Shuyi shrunk her neck and followed behind Bai Xiaowen. She had always been brave, but she was a little afraid of ghosts. To be exact, she was afraid of unknown ghosts — she could always imagine many scary scenes in her mind to scare herself.
If a ghost really jumped out now, Li Shuyi would not be afraid. She would just go up and kill it.
If she couldn't kill it — Xiaowen would have a way. Li Shuyi's thoughts were so simple and clear.
