Chapter 79

Guan Yangpo's defense lasted only one day and one night.

The next afternoon, the herald from the Great Wall defense line arrived at guanyangpo and announced that the animal tide had receded.

During this period, Guan Yangpo's defense line has only experienced five or six shocks of scale, and the number of each time is very small. There are three or two big cats and kittens. When Chu Yun is in charge, there are not even one casualty.

There are two main reasons why there is no pressure. The first is that the scale of animal tide is really small. The second is that Guanyang slope is well located and located in the rear, so it bears little pressure.

But

Chu Yun observed carefully, but found that the herald's face was not good-looking.

"Why, is there a heavy loss ahead?"

Chu Yun couldn't help asking.

The herald smiled bitterly and shook his head: "how can the animal tide with only three wolf smoke suffer heavy losses..."

When Chu Yun heard the speech, he knew there was something hidden inside. His mind moved, so he couldn't help asking, "are those demons who can abduct a whole camp again? Is it near us? "

“……”

The herald officer was stunned for a moment, then looked a little low, nodded, sighed and said, "yes, it's in the guanlinfeng area not far from here. When I went to the herald, I found that all the martial artists in the whole area had disappeared and didn't even stay alive."

Chu Yun's heart moved and looked at shopkeeper Yang next to him.

He has seen the strategic military deployment map. There are only three defense areas between guanlinfeng area and guanyangpo area, which is very close.

In other words, they are almost one step away from those mysterious threats.

"No more."

The herald obviously didn't want to mention it. After shaking his head, he said, "the news has arrived. Please help yourself."

With that, the herald rode a fast horse and went to the next defense area.

"Big shopkeeper, let's go."

When shopkeeper Yang saw that Chu Yun was stunned, he whispered and urged.

According to the Convention, after the beast tide recedes, the garrison forces can take whatever monster they hunt. All the booty belongs to the garrison forces themselves, and there is no need to hand it over to the city Lord's house. So now the warriors of Yuanhe Pavilion can go back to the house after collecting the booty.

"No..."

Chu Yun slowly breathed out a sigh and said, "go back first. I'm going to guanlinfeng to have a look."

He would make such a decision for no other reason, just because after the herald told the news, a system prompt sounded in Chu Yun's mind.

Sting——

"Phase task trigger, phase 1"

"Mission objective: To explore the truth of the disappearance of martial artists in guanlinfeng area"

"Task time limit: None"

"Task reward: three local bait"

……

This is a special stage task, which means that there will be more tasks in the follow-up of this task. With the progress of the stage, the task difficulty will be higher and higher, and the task reward will be more and more.

Although Chu Yun knows that behind the disappearance of martial artists in guanlinfeng area, there is a direct connection with the demons in the evil spirit mountain, which can be said to be very dangerous, it is the so-called wealth risk. Relying on the rewards released by the system alone, Chu Yun must fight with them.

"OK, big shopkeeper, you should be more careful."

Shopkeeper Yang nodded and didn't put forward any opinions on Chu Yun's decision.

Although it was only a few days' contact, shopkeeper Yang was fully aware of one thing, that is, Chu Yun's existence, whether force, intelligence or even talent, should be far above him.

For such an amazing person, as long as it is Chu Yun's order, he can obey it unconditionally. With his level, he is not qualified to influence Chu Yun.

Then, under the leadership of shopkeeper Yang, the martial artists of Yuanhe Pavilion left guanyangpo and returned to Linghai giant city.

Chu Yun, the big shopkeeper, started West to guanlinfeng area.

According to the military deployment map on the Great Wall defense line, Chu Yun soon came to this area. At this moment, the people of the city Lord's house have arrived here, led by Qin Shuangyan, the son of the city Lord, are exploring in the area.

"Come so fast."

Chu Yun thought in his heart that people had walked past.

"Shopkeeper Chu?"

Qin Shuangyan raised his eyes and saw Chu Yun coming. He looked surprised, but he still said hello.

Chu Yun arched his hand and said with a smile, "general Qin, meet again."

"Did you hear about it here?"

Qin Shuangyan didn't beat around the Bush and asked directly. At the moment, he seemed to have just come down from the battlefield, wearing armor and his cloak covered with blood.

"Yes, the herald told me what happened here when he passed guanyangpo area."

Chu Yun nodded, glanced around and said, "this is the first time I've experienced this kind of thing. Naturally, I want to come and have a look."

Qin Shuangyan nodded to show understanding.

Then he glanced at Chu Yun and said faintly: "the mood is understandable, but you don't have to worry. Those demons will only pick soft persimmons. There are not many hard stubbles among the martial artists who have always been kidnapped. With the strength of Chu shopkeeper, you don't need to worry about them coming to the door."

"Oh?"

Chu Yun raised his eyebrows and said, "are those small forces kidnapped every time?"

"Every time." Qin Shuangyan nodded, then took a look at the intact City pass and the empty barracks. A trace of gloomy anger flashed in his eyes and said, "what was taken away this time is Hengyuan firm in Linghai giant city, including the president's family."

Chu Yun heard the speech and thought it over carefully. At the birthday party of the city Lord's house yesterday, he heard the name of Hengyuan firm, which basically belongs to a low-class force. When giving birthday gifts to the city Lord, he ranked very late.

"If those demons can choose some weak warriors to plunder every time, does it mean that they know our internal situation very well?"

Chu Yun touched his chin and muttered.

Qin Shuangyan glanced at him, shook his head and said, "the characteristic of military defense is that the strong forces are in front and the weak ones are in the back. Guan Linfeng is in the rear. Naturally, he is weak."

Chu Yun nodded, which is indeed the same truth.

Qin Shuangyan seemed unwilling to talk more about it and said, "if manager Chu has nothing else to do, go back to Linghai giant city first. I have something else to do. I'm sorry I won't accompany you."

With that, he arched his hand at Chu Yun, turned and continued to track down the clues in the camp.

Chu Yun naturally didn't go.

The mission has been released. He is asked to investigate the disappearance of the fighters here. How can he not look at anything?

So Chu Yun sneaked into the city master's house and followed them to investigate around the camp.

He first went into the barracks. Although it was empty, the kitchen was still on fire and the dishes were in the pot. All these proved that there were people active here not long ago, but now I don't know where they all went.

In the city, there was no fresh trace of battle. The city gate was wide open, and the defense array was not even activated.

This strange scene gave Chu Yun a strange sense of vision.

It was as if, at a certain moment, the Hengyuan merchants who entered the guanlinfeng defense line suddenly lost their resistance, or even lost their consciousness directly, and then were packed and taken away by demons from the outside world. The process was extremely peaceful and there was no resistance at all.

But how did this happen?

How can terrible magic do this? How terrible is the strength of the demon who performs this magic?

Can a fourth order monster comparable to mountains and seas do it? Is it a fifth order?

Chu Yun's eyebrows wrinkled deeper and deeper.

At this time, a special light reflection attracted Chu Yun's eyes. He looked around and saw that a piece of light purple spar powder appeared in the corner under the sun.

Chu Yun stepped forward, twisted the crystal powder, came up to his eyes, looked carefully, and found that this is a special spiritual power ore, in which there is a slight fluctuation of spiritual power. It seems that its efficiency is related to spiritual power.

"This should not be something owned by guanlinfeng area?"

Chu Yun muttered to himself.

At this time, Qin Shuangyan, who came out of the barracks, saw Chu Yun still standing under the city wall and couldn't help frowning. A deputy official under his opponent said, "go, please leave the shopkeeper Chu. This is not a place to visit at will."

"Yes."

The adjutant took the order, bowed with his fist and came to Chu Yun to explain his intention.

Seeing this, Chu Yun had to smile bitterly and nod to leave.

The responsibility for investigating the truth of the disappearance lies in the city master's house. He is not an outsider of official origin. Naturally, he has no name to put his foot in it.

Fortunately, the lavender spar powder found under the wall has given Chu Yun a clue to investigate.

Moreover, the system does not have a very accurate time card for this stage task, which requires him to complete it in a few days, but generously without time limit, which means that Chu Yun can have enough time to carry out all aspects of investigation, and there is no need to be in a hurry.
