The task assigned to the Seven Demons of the Gourds is simple, it is nothing more than asking them to go to Fenghua City to inquire more.

The people who are asked about are street vendors, gangsters, etc.

As long as you are patient enough, you will definitely get valuable information from these people who are hiding in the market.

At this moment, there are no subordinates from the Six Gates around you, and Chen Mu, the Mingwei Guard in the city, could not trust them very much, so he could only let these seven brothers run errands. After all, they can't be left as decorations by their side.

To be honest, Chen Mu still doesn't understand why the old man asked him to bring the "Gourd Seven Demons" to the Destiny Valley.

Although these seven brothers are very strong in joining forces, except for the second brother, others have more or less inflated brains, which is difficult to provide substantial help, and it is often a burden along the way.

But since you have brought it all, try to use as much as you can.

Just think of it as a few newly recruited younger brothers.

In addition, Chen Mu also wrote down some of the things the old man told him and handed them over.

"Mr. Chen... are you sure that this... is all told by grandpa?"

Looking at the strange contents of the matter on the paper, the gourd dick stared at Chen Mu with a suspicious face.

Others also looked weird.

They can't blame them for doubting this, after all, what the old man told me was quite speechless.

Let the eldest brother go to a certain place to chop firewood, let the fifth brother go to a certain river to fetch water, and let the third brother dig a grave in a certain cemetery...

It feels like a np randomly dispatched tasks.

Chen Mu sneered: "Who knows what your grandfather is thinking, but I looked at it and some of these places are in the Destiny Valley and some are outside the island. It seems that your grandfather is quite familiar with this place. Could it be that there was anything to do with Destiny Valley before."

The seven brothers shook their heads repeatedly, and the third brother said, "Grandpa used to be an ordinary person who was honest and honest."

"Just be honest and honest? You are so stupid."

Chen Mu was too lazy to argue and waved his hand. "Go and ask me for information first, and do the rest of your grandfather's explanation later."

The seven brothers were still a little unhappy when they were called by someone as servants.

But considering that Chen Mu saved them before, he didn't have the nerve to say anything and left the house.

"In ancient times, underdeveloped information was really a killer."

Chen Mu sighed and looked at Qingluo's cute little face, "Have you ever been to Tiande Valley, my wife? What has Qingluo experienced?"

Shao Siming gently held the man's hand, and his beautiful eyes conveyed a feeling of comfort.

Chen Mu also held the girl's little hand tightly, gently stroked the tender and smooth skin on the back of his hand with his thumb, and said softly: "Be careful in everything, this place is still very evil."

Shao Siming lightly tapped his head.

"And you."

Chen Mu turned his head and stared at Wucai Luo. "Don't go out to find food if you have nothing to do. You won't die if you're hungry for two days. I'm so hungry that I have some nutritious meals for you."

Wucai Luo poked her red lips and turned her head to ignore her brother-in-law.

However, the little girl was still curious about the other party’s nutritious meals, thinking about how nutritious it is.

...

After accompanying Qingluo for a while, Chen Mu left Shao Siming and Wucailuo to take care of him, while he went out to investigate.

The Destiny Valley, which is located within the island, does not occupy a particularly large area.

Apart from several villas and caves, there are only lush ancient forests around them, lush and dense, surrounding the entire sect, with a tranquility and distant charm.

There is also a huge waterfall on the south side of the back mountain, rumbling.

However, what surprised Chen Mu was that the stone statue of the goddess could not be seen in the sect, which was in sharp contrast with Fenghua City.

In fact, along the way, many doubts have occupied Chen Mu's heart.

Whether in the eyes of the court or other external forces, the representative of Tianming Valley is the old man Tianji, and they all agree that he is the real leader of Tianming Valley.

Goddess more represents status like saints.

But since entering Fenghua City, Chen Mu felt different.

Whether it is the time area, the temples and worship statues in the city, or even the worship of the common people, they completely respect the goddess as the number one person in the Destiny Valley, as if she was the leader.

But when I came to Tianji Valley, I could not feel the traces of the existence of the goddess.

This has to be puzzled.

Because Tianming Valley did not restrict him personally, Chen Mu could wander around at will.

He didn't deliberately hide himself and investigated around him with a swagger.

When you encounter something abnormal, stop and observe it.

When the maids or disciples on the road saw him, they just treated him well and continued to do their own things.

It can be seen that the above was specifically instructed.

Perhaps in order to prove his innocence, Chen Mu was allowed to investigate everywhere without interfering.

Such an open-minded attitude made Chen Mu somewhat believe that what Miss Yan'er said was true.

Before he knew it, Chen Mu came to a relatively desolate courtyard.

The reason why it is desolate is not because the yard is very dilapidated, but because the surrounding environment is quite bleak.

Large areas of trees covered half of the yard and shrouded in shadows. The dead leaves on the ground had not been cleaned for a long time. At first glance, it seemed like they had arrived at a barren mountain.

There was no more than half of the servants' figures.

There are no other courtyards nearby, only the lonely courtyard.

When the breeze blows, the rustling sound of leaves on the ground adds a bit of cold and cold air to this place.

Chen Mu looked at the courtyard, which was quiet inside and it seemed that no one lived there.

But out of habit, he walked over to check it out.

When he approached, Chen Mu found that the gate of the courtyard was covered with a large black lock, which merged with the dark door.

Chen Mu hesitated for a moment, and finally forced himself to drive without using brute force.

After all, it's not time to turn against each other.

So he bent down slightly and observed through the gap between the doors.

Because of his limited vision, Chen Mu only saw a dry well placed beside the house, covered with fallen leaves, and several clothes were hanging randomly on ropes with spider webs.

However, one of the bright red baby clothes was hung neatly, which shows that the owner was very concerned about it.

The ticking water droplets prove that the clothes have just been washed.

Is this a sign that someone is?

Just as Chen Mu frowned and thought, suddenly a gloomy scarlet eye was stuck on the crack in the door opposite, staring at him tightly.

"grass!"

Chen Mu was startled and subconsciously took a few steps back.

His heartbeat accelerated slightly, and he looked at the locked door with a nervous look. The eye that suddenly appeared just now was indeed very scary, like a monster.

Of course, there is no monster in Tiandesity Valley, so it is highly likely that it will be the owner of the courtyard.

Before Chen Mu could come back to his senses, there was a rustling sound in the weeds in the corner of the wall next to him, and a thin woman crawled out from the cracked wall of the courtyard.

Her clothes were ragged, like a beggar.

The hair was even more messy, not much better than the bird's nest, but the eyes on the dirty face were particularly bright.

She rushed to Chen Mu quickly, pulled Chen Mu's collar, with a crazy expression and asked anxiously, "Where is my daughter... Where did you take her?... Hurry, hurry, she must be hungry... You bring her here..."

The smell of the woman's body made Chen Mu frown. He wanted to push it away but found that the other party was extremely strong.

"What's your daughter?" Chen Mu's face was full of questions.

It can be seen that this woman is a lunatic.

Her thin cheeks and body were almost skinny, and her already ragged clothes hung on her like shabby sacks.

"Where is my daughter... where is she... bring her here..."

The woman, who was about 40 years old, just repeated these sentences, her thin and fleshless hands tightly clutching Chen Mu's collar, and her scarlet eyes were full of neurotic questions.

As the woman became more and more crazy, Chen Mu's clothes were almost scratched by her.

At this moment, two patriarch disciples who heard the movement finally came over and saw this and quickly wanted to pull the woman away.

But the woman held her tightly and kept muttering in her mouth, which made the two disciples unable to pull them away until a white shadow appeared. It was the girl Yan'er.

She raised her bare hands and a silver needle crossed the cold light and thorned the woman's neck.

The woman then let go of her hands and slowly fell down.

After falling down, the woman was still struggling to get up, grabbed the corner of Miss Yan'er's skirt, and muttered: "My daughter...my daughter...return it to me..."

"What are you doing while standing there?"

Miss Yan'er no longer looked gentle just now, her pretty face was as cold as ice, and she looked at the two disciples coldly.

The two shivered and hurriedly dragged the woman up and locked her up again in the yard.

The crack in the corner of the wall that was dug by a woman at some point was refilled and blocked with sand, soil and gravel.
