Among the mountains, the North Square was the largest open space, and there were many stands, which were rarely opened. This time, it was opened because of her, which was unprecedented.
Starfish and Hai Xi sent Sima Youyue to the North Square, and then went to the stands.
The assessment hadn't started yet, so Sima Youyue was waiting alone below, while Starfish, Hai Xi, and Fuxi were excited on the stands.
At this time, a strange man came to Starfish and Hai Xi, and said, "Starfish, someone asked me to give this to you."
Starfish and Hai Xi saw the family jade in his hand, and held their breath. Then, they took the jade and asked, "Where is this person?"
"Waiting for you in the town outside. She said she couldn't stay here for long, and asked you to meet her, "the man said." She said she didn't want anyone to know. Hai Xi, who is that person? I saw her sneaking around. Is she a bad person? "
Sneaking around?
Starfish and Hai Xi looked at each other and said, "No, it should be our clansmen who found her. We're going to meet her now. Thank you for bringing us the news. "
"So it's your clansmen. Then I've brought you the news. I'll leave now." The man was about to leave.
"Wait." Starfish stopped him. "I didn't see you in the gate. Did you come from the town?"
The man was startled, and said, "Yes."
"In that case, wait for us, and we'll go out with you." Starfish said, "We'll need you to point out that person for us."
"Okay."
"Then wait for us at the gate. We'll go after saying hello."
"Okay."
The man left and waited for them at the gate. Starfish talked to a man for a while, but he didn't know what they were talking about.
"According to their temperament, they won't tell anyone about this, right?" He guessed. After all, the Hai family was a secret, and they wouldn't be stupid enough to tell anyone.
Starfish quickly told Fuxi everything, and then said, "This jade belongs to my aunt. When the family was destroyed, her whereabouts were unknown. Now that we have a clue, we have to go and have a look."
"Do you know that this might be a trap?" Fuxi said.
"I know, but this is the only clue we have right now." The starfish said, "Although it's most likely a trap, we can't ignore it."
"Alright then, go ahead." Fuxi nodded. When he saw the man looking over, he said, "Go ahead. Come back early. I'll let Youyue know."
"Thank you very much." Starfish knew that he was talking to that person, so he nodded gratefully and went to that person with Hessie.
When the man saw Fuxi pressing his lips together and "understanding" what he was saying, he heaved a sigh of relief. Since he said so, it meant that he would be waiting for Sima Youyue to finish her exam. As long as these people didn't come, by the time they found out that these two people were missing, it would be after her assessment. At that time, they wouldn't be able to track down their whereabouts.
He walked out with the starfish and Hessie. After leaving the bustling North Square, the surroundings became much quieter.
Along the way, Sima Youyue asked him some questions about the town. He couldn't answer them, so he said that he had just entered the sect recently, so he was sent to the town to guard. Seeing his behavior, the siblings were even more sure that this was a trap.
When they were about to reach the town, the man said, "I suddenly remembered that he said that if you didn't arrive in half a day, he would go to Dongshan Mountain to wait for you. He asked you to go to Dongshan Mountain to find him."
"I heard that Dongshan Mountain is a little far from here!" Hessie said.
"That's why I said that person was sneaky. In that case, do you still want to go? "
The starfish and Hessie hesitated and said, "Yes, but we haven't been to Dongshan Mountain. Can you take us there?"
"Well …"
"We don't know what the person who brought the jade looks like. Even if we see her, we won't know it's her," the starfish said.
"Alright then. Who asked me to take on this matter? But I have to go back and talk to the shopkeeper. "
"Okay, then you go. We'll wait for you here," the starfish said with a smile.
The man left, thinking that these two people had really grown up in a good environment. Their minds were too simple. He went to the town and went back to find them.
"My shopkeeper said that he wanted me to take you there and then go back to work, so let's go and come back early."
"Okay."
They rushed to Dongshan Mountain and soon arrived there.
"This is it. I don't know where that person is hiding. Shall we look for her separately? "
"I think we'd better go together. If we separate, we won't recognize her even if we see her, "the starfish said." We'll help you talk to your shopkeeper later. He won't blame you. "
"That's good. I can slack off for half a day. Let's start looking here. "
He took the two of them around the mountain and then walked towards the agreed place. Before they got there, they found that something was wrong. The air seemed to be filled with a strong smell of blood. When they got there, they found that a group of underworld beasts had surrounded a group of wounded people, and those people were their own people.
We've been discovered! This was his first thought. The next second, he reflexively wanted to escape, but found that the way back had been blocked by a group of underworld beasts.
"You guys are so slow!" Fuxi came over on a nether lion, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and complained, "When we go back, I don't know if Youyue has finished the exam."
"We wanted to see if he had any other purpose," the Hai Xi said. "Who knew that he was just leading us around."
"Okay, catch these people. Let's hurry back." Fuxi took out a few ropes and shook them gently. These ropes tied everyone up.
The Hai Xi went up and fed poison to everyone's mouths. They couldn't commit suicide now even if they wanted to.
Fuxi ordered the underworld beasts, "You guys go back. You've worked hard today."
All the underworld beasts bowed respectfully to him, and then they all dispersed.
"You already knew?!" The man who delivered the message glared at the starfish. There was no subservience in his eyes, and his face was full of anger.
"That's right. We suspected you as soon as you appeared, "the starfish said." But in order to catch you, we had to let you lead the way. When you went back to the town to inform the people hiding in East Mountain, we also sent the news to Fuxi. When you go back, you guys can have a good talk about why Little Aunt's jade pendant is with you. "
"Let's go, let's go." Fuxi urged. He still had to go back and watch Sima Youyue's exam! He didn't know how much he would miss.
Sima Youyue was in the square. She looked at the place where the starfish and the others were and found that the three of them were gone. She frowned slightly.
