Browsing through the information, I found that the situation was not very different from what the arresting officer said. No one survived, and the death condition was horrific. The whole body was shriveled and uninjured, as if they had been exposed to the scorching sun and dried in the shade and dehydrated.

After quickly browsing the information, Yunjing raised his head and frowned: "Are there no survivors in the city? Did anything abnormal happen before the accident?"

"Sir, there were no survivors in the city that day. All officials and civilians were dead. Not even one escaped. There was no special situation before. It was nearly half a day after the incident when someone returned from visiting relatives and found out.

This situation was reported to the government before the government learned about it.”

After hearing the answer, Yun Dingding nodded and said, "Where is the person who reported it? Where is he now?"

"Sir, he is dead. He was already unconscious when he reported the situation. He was greatly frightened and went crazy. He accidentally fell on the sharp blade and died within two days."

It’s not surprising for ordinary people to see mummies all over the city being frightened to death. Not everyone’s psychological quality is that strong.

While Yun Jing was pondering, the arresting officer asked cautiously: "Sir, although Lumen City is now sealed off, the corpses all over the city cannot be left alone. How should we deal with them? Please tell me."

"Of course we can't leave it alone. No one can afford the consequences if a plague occurs, but don't worry, we have to investigate and deal with it first," Yun Jing said thoughtfully.

Human blood disappeared out of thin air. Yun Jing definitely wanted to find out in person. How did it disappear? Where did the disappeared blood go? Although he could check it through the air with his mind, he still had to see it with his own eyes. It was a necessary process.

It still has to exist, anything that 'comes out of thin air' is hard to believe.

Leng Wushuang, as Yunjing's deputy, said at this time: "Sir, it is necessary to go to investigate, but it has been happening there for so many days. It is hot now and the corpses are rotting. If a plague breeds, it may be dangerous."

This is a kind reminder. Plague is something that is talked about in a disgraceful way at any time. Once it spreads, the consequences will be disastrous.

After thinking for a while, Yun Jing said: "It doesn't matter, a small number of us are going there, there are many experts, we think of ways to isolate the atmosphere."

"Then let's do what Mr. Yun said." Leng Wushuang didn't say anything anymore. As long as you have the cultivation level of the innate realm and are isolated from the true energy, you are not afraid of being infected with the plague. You are just afraid that Yun Jing will lead a large group of people to go there.

.

After eating and drinking, it’s time to get down to business. It’s still early and it’s only noon. Yunjing suggested: “Without further delay, let’s go investigate now?”

"That's fine. I wonder what kind of manpower your Excellency needs to go there?" Chai Shilin nodded and asked.

Yunjing looked at those present and asked, "I must be going. As for the others, is there anyone willing to go?"

Who dares to give up at this time? Everyone actively expressed their willingness to go. After some discussion, it was finally confirmed that about twenty people would go, including Yunjing and several guards assigned to him. Then Chai Shilin, Leng Wushuang, came before

The person in charge of the arrest department here also has two doctors with excellent medical skills, as well as a head catcher from the county and several experts above the Xiantian realm.

Although the garrison general actively wanted to go, Yunjing refused on the grounds that he was responsible for the heavy task of sealing off the surrounding area. The other party expressed great regret and did not know whether this was really the case.

After confirming the personnel, the group set off directly to Lumen City, which is ten miles away. They didn't even bring their mounts, and they all went there on foot. Everyone was not an ordinary person, so the distance was not a big problem.

On the way, Yunjing once again asked the person in charge of the arrest department who came here first, and asked him if he had any clues about the evil organization that committed the crime in Lumen City. The other party's answer was not what Yunjing expected. There were no clues at all. They seemed to

Appearing out of thin air and disappearing out of thin air, taking away the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in a city.

Yun Jing was not surprised by this. It would be strange if he could easily find the clues of those people's rape.

Then Yunjing asked Chai Shilin about the seven investigation results that he had pushed out a few days ago, and the answer he received was that there was no news yet, but he would urge them and there would be news feedback at the latest by night.

In autumn under a severe drought, the sun is scorching, the breeze blows dust, everything is withered and lifeless, and the whole world seems lifeless.

Not long after, Yunjing and his party arrived outside Lumen City. The gate there was tightly closed, vultures were circling in the sky, and crows were screaming loudly from the city. Even in broad daylight, it was a bit creepy.

From a distance, one could smell a disgusting stench coming from the city. Even though everyone had witnessed the big scene, they couldn't help but frown slightly at this time.

Hundreds of thousands of people died, and there was no one to deal with the corpses for so many days. You can imagine how disturbing the smell was.

The closed city gate was what the troops who subsequently blocked the place said. In fact, the city gate was opened after the incident in Lumen City.

No one wants to smell that disgusting smell, so they use various means to isolate it.

At Yunjing's signal, the catcher from the county took the initiative to open the city gate. Who asked him to be the youngest official here? If he doesn't take the initiative, it will be difficult for others to take action? Why should he mess around if he has no eyesight?

Already?

After the city gate was opened, the situation inside the city came into the eyes of Yun Jing and the others, making everyone's eyes freeze and their expressions darken.

There is no life in the city, only the sound of wind blowing leaves, grass clippings and paper. The streets are strewn with badly decomposed corpses. Mosquitoes buzz like clouds and maggots squirm. This scene under the scorching sun makes people feel dizzy.

Numbness and chills all over.

There are old people, children, women, men, chickens, dogs, cows and horses... except for corpses in the city, the picture is no different from the imaginary hell.

"Let's go in and take a look," Yunjing said without hesitation.

The situation in the city has been investigated for a long time. Even though he knew that there might be nothing gained from going there, he did not dare to disobey the order. It should be noted that Yunjing was invited by Emperor Sanluo. If he disobeyed the order and missed any clues, no one could afford it.

As Yun Jing and the others entered the city, the mosquitoes hanging on the corpses on the nearby streets were flying like clouds and buzzing constantly, making people's skin crawl.

Xiong Fang, who was beside Yunjing, frowned slightly and snorted. With his extraordinary cultivation, he killed half a street of mosquitoes and maggots with just a snort. The dead mosquitoes fell like raindrops. In this way, the vultures in the sky were nearby.

The entrenched crows were frightened and fled in all directions.

There was a badly decomposed corpse on the street. Yun Jing knelt down to observe it carefully without changing his expression.

This is the corpse of a middle-aged man. It has rotted to the point of disgrace. The corpse is covered with maggots. There is no corpse water spreading under the body. It has been dried under the scorching sun. The stench that can be smelled even outside the city is

This is how it came about.

While Yunjing was looking at the corpse, a sixty-year-old doctor who came with him said: "Sir, when we first entered the city to investigate, the corpse was still mummified, not decomposed and swollen, with no wounds on the body. After a few days, it has become...

This is what it looks like”

Yunjing understood in his heart that the mummy he was talking about was not the kind of air-dried 'bacon', it was just shriveled up without being caused by human blood. It would naturally rot under the action of microorganisms after being dead for a long time, unlike real bacon.

It lasts a long time as well.

Nodding slightly, Yunjing stood up and looked around. All he saw were corpses scattered everywhere.

'There are no wounds on the body, but the blood all over the body has disappeared.' Thinking about it, Yun Jing felt it was a bit strange, but considering the strange ability given to people by foreign civilizations to rape, it is not impossible to do such a thing.

After all, the corpse was already rotting. Even if Yunjing carefully scanned every place with his mind, he could not get any valuable information. If he had arrived as soon as possible, he might have gained something.

"Master Yun, did you see anything?" Chai Shilin couldn't help but ask.

This is no longer on the road, but actually doing things, so the name will naturally need to change.

Yun Jing shook his head slightly and said: "After so many days, it is so easy to find something valuable. Let's go and have a look in the center of the city. I hope I can find something."

The others had no objections and had no choice but to follow.

Walking on the purgatory-like streets, everyone's face looked ugly. If they didn't vomit directly, it was because they had a strong mind and endured it.

Observing all the way, after Xu Hou went deep into the purgatory-like Lumen City, Yun Jing said: "There are hundreds of thousands of people in the city. If you want to kill them all, it is definitely not something that one or two people can do. It should be noted that there are not only civilians in the city, but also

There are powerful warriors, soldiers, and police officers. Lumen City’s specialty is the precious Lumen Stone. The person in charge of mining it will definitely invite a true artistic conception expert to take charge. Even such people were poisoned and could not survive. It is conceivable that

Know how powerful your enemy is!"

Hearing what Yun Jing said, everyone accompanying him had serious expressions on his face. The enemy's power and concealment methods were frightening. Even as top masters in the late stage of Zhenyijing, Xiong Fang and the others felt great pressure.

Yunjing has fought against the always weird people. They were endowed with weird abilities by insects. Each one of them is extremely difficult to deal with without understanding it. If you don't pay attention, you will suffer big losses. The methods used to deal with ordinary warriors are used on them.

Not appropriate.

"The enemy is quite terrifying, especially when he comes and goes without a trace. You don't know his face until you see him, and you don't even know how to deal with him," Leng Wushuang gritted his teeth.

As one of the three heroes of the younger generation of San Luo, he is not afraid of any challenges and difficulties, but facing such an enemy, he feels extremely aggrieved. If you have the courage, you should stand up and see if I don't kill you!

Yunjing suddenly stopped, turned back and looked outside the city and said, "I wonder if you have noticed a problem, that is, all the people who died are in the city."

"Why did Mr. Yun say this?" Chai Shilin asked subconsciously.

Pointing to the direction outside the city, Yunjing said: "During the severe drought, countless victims must have gathered outside the city. Before I came in, I saw many disaster relief facilities outside the city, but I didn't see half of the dead victims.

Presumably it was not the garrison behind who brought the corpse into the city, which means that the evil organization took action only after everyone gathered in the city!"

After everyone heard about it and thought about it for a moment, it was undeniable that this was indeed the case.

Leng Wushuang asked: "Master Yun, what do you mean...?"

"The closer you get to the center of the city, the denser the corpses are. I think that the evil organization used some method to gather the crowd before taking action. It didn't start collecting blood until all the people outside the city were gathered. There are hundreds of thousands of people. They want to gather them all in one place."

Normally, who can do this without missing a single person in the city? But this situation just happened. Let’s make a bold guess, is it because the enemy has the means to control people on a large scale?” Yun Jing said solemnly.

Everyone's expressions changed again. Everyone was well-informed. Naturally, they knew that one could indeed control people after reaching a certain level of martial arts cultivation. However, it was unheard of to control hundreds of thousands of people, no matter how sophisticated mental control was.

The Myth Realm may be able to do it, but even in the Myth Realm, killing hundreds of thousands of people is probably just a slap in the face. Do you still need to gather hundreds of thousands of people so specifically?

In this case, the only explanation is that the enemy has the means to control people on a large scale, and there are many people who have this means. Otherwise, it would be impossible to gather hundreds of thousands of people into the city.

With a flash of eyes, Leng Wushuang grasped the key point and said, "Master Yun just said that the enemy gathered the crowd to collect blood?"

"I think so. You might as well think about it. There are many ways to peel off human blood. I think some of you here may know it, but such martial arts methods can only be used by a few people. Dozens of people can be peeled off.

Thousands of people's blood, where did that blood go? What if they weren't collecting blood? Otherwise, wouldn't it be easier to kill them directly? Then, following the method of controlling people on a large scale, the enemy also has the terrifying method of stripping human blood on a large scale

!" Yun Jing said in a deep voice.

While they were thinking about these words, Yun Jing continued: "The reason why the enemy is scary is because we don't know the unknown. Once we understand it, there will always be a way to deal with it, right? Otherwise, even if the enemy appears in front of us, we will be helpless.

So for now, in addition to investigating who the enemy is, it is equally important to understand what methods they have."

"Master Yun's words make sense." Everyone nodded.

With thoughts flickering in his mind, Yun Jing was thinking, how can a traitor control people on a large scale? He couldn't help but think of the saint who controlled various animals he met on the way to Niujiao Town. At that time, he had a radius of ten miles.

All the animals are controlled by him, it can be said that it is overwhelming, and now this method of controlling people on a large scale is an advanced version?

Then, how is the blood in the bodies of hundreds of thousands of people stripped away? Especially when there are no wounds on the human body, it seems to be drained out of thin air. Could this be a new and strange method of human betrayal given by the Holy Lord?
To be continued...
