Chapter 431 Heaven and Earth Cannot Tolerate This!

After walking out of the occupied land of Old Dayu and arriving at a place where people live, Ning Wuxie immediately took a carriage and headed for a densely populated city.

The group of Confucian disciples searched all the way in that direction until they arrived at Yong'an City and found nothing. They could only return the same way and go to the temporary headquarters set up by Confucianism in Yanluozhou, a border city of Old Dayu.

They booked the Xiangyun Inn in Yanluozhou as a temporary residence for activities, sorting out and exchanging various information about finding the people of Dayu, and distributing tasks at the same time.

Half a month has passed since two traitors appeared among the seven Confucian saints and were suppressed by Xun Zhu and the other four saints.

The entire Confucian family was in panic and uneasy.

Worried that traitors would appear around them, and their teachers and classmates were also members of the secret organization.

But three days later, news came from Wanzhu Hall, and Xun Zhu announced that all traitors in Confucianism had been arrested, and everyone could rest assured.

Only those two saints were traitors?

While they were relieved, the wounds left in the hearts of the Confucian disciples were difficult to heal.

If even the Seven Saints could have traitors, what on earth was Confucianism?

Even those who had tearfully asked Xun Zhu not to disband Confucianism fell silent, feeling that their worldview and beliefs had been greatly shaken.

In the dark room of Wanzhu Hall, Xun Zhu, the other four saints, and Meng Cangran knew the truth of everything.

In the end, they decided to go to Dayu first.

Find the people here first.

At this time, Meng Cangran was in a private room on the second floor of Xiangyun Inn, listening to the captain in charge of the search report today's findings.

"I led six people from Ziyunzhou and headed straight for Yong'an City, but found nothing."

"I led six people from Yanlanzhou and headed for Yong'an City. On the way, we passed a small hill and went in to search, but found no traces of people. After passing through three cities, the residents in the city were still there, and there was no other situation."

Meng Cangran nodded, frowning slightly.

This search is almost a carpet search, but still nothing is found...

"I led six people from the south and headed north. There were no mountains in the middle, only wasteland. We passed two cities. The cities were normal, but we found two people in the wasteland."

The last person said, it was Li Chang.

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him, "You actually found someone? Who is it?"

"A peddler uncle in his forties or fifties, holding a little girl of twelve or thirteen, said they were father and daughter, and came out of Yong'an City to do business in Dachu."

"Did he say anything?" Meng Cangran asked.

"No, he didn't know why all the people in Dayu disappeared."

"..."Everyone was silent, it seemed that he was just an ordinary person.

After Dayu suffered this change, many people in various places could not continue to live, such as landlords and merchants. No one gave them land to farm, and no one bought their goods. They could only become working people again and make a living with their own hands.

"Is the man so old?" Meng Cangran asked, "He is nearly 40 or 50 years old, and his daughter is only 12 or 13?"

"Yes, this man has a big beard. They should be real father and daughter, very close." Li Chang said, and then smiled.

"That girl is interesting. I called the man uncle, and she actually glared at me, as if I called her father old..." Li Chang touched his chin and said with a smile on his lips.

Everyone laughed softly.

Someone joked, "Of course they don't want you to call your father old."

"But that man looks like he is in his 40s or 50s! I'm not blind!" Li Chang retorted.

"Okay, okay, don't waste time on these details, go and rest, listen to the arrangements tomorrow morning, and continue the search."

Meng Cangran said, and the other disciples took the order and turned to leave.

With a sigh, Meng Cangran walked out of the private room and saw busy Confucian disciples coming and going, holding papers in their hands to pass information. He held the railing and saw people in the hall on the first floor were having a meeting.

After listening to a few words, Meng Cangran realized that they still had nothing to show for it, and his eyes were completely dark.

Nearly a million people... How could they disappear in just half a year?

This is simply an incredible horror story, and even the craziest brain can't make up such a plot.

Thinking of the moment when the remaining five saints and himself knew the truth in the dark room of Wanzhu Hall, a bone-chilling chill ran down from head to heels.

That kind of horror was even worse than the tragedy of millions of people disappearing from the face of the earth.

"Alas." Meng Cangran sighed softly.

Brother Ning, you are indeed doing something earth-shaking...

Where are you... Do you have anything to do with the strange things in Dayu?

Meng Cangran doesn't believe that Ning Wuxie has nothing to do with this. Now, any abnormal things happening on Lingwu Continent will make him think of Ning Wuxie.

But Ning Wuxie had disappeared from the face of the earth several years ago, just like the people of Dayu, and no one knows where he will appear.

Meng Cangran's mind was in a mess. He always felt that as long as he found Ning Wuxie, all problems would be solved.

He put his elbows together on the railing, leaned over to look at the hall on the first floor, and suddenly saw Li Chang, who had just reported to him, walking downstairs.

"Li Chang!" he shouted.

The first floor was noisy. Li Chang looked around and found that it was someone upstairs who was calling him, so he looked up.

"What was the name of the person you met?"

"I don't know, I didn't ask."

Meng Cangran pouted and nodded, indicating that he was fine.

Li Chang took two steps, and suddenly thought of something, so he stopped and looked up at Meng Cangran and said, "I heard that man calling his daughter, Xuan'er, which sounded pretty."

He smiled and lowered his head to do his own thing.

With a loud bang, everyone on the first floor was stunned. Looking at Meng Cangran who jumped down from the second floor, he rushed to Li Chang in two steps and grabbed his shoulders.

"What do you think the little girl's name is?!"

"Xuan, Xuan'er, Xuan of daylily flowers..."

"Call your team members and set off with me immediately!"

"Now, now, it's dark..."

"Immediately!!"

...

The border of Da Chu, Beiyang City.

"Do you remember what this is?"

Ning Wuxie squatted, holding a string of red candied haws in his hand, shaking it in front of Xuan'er's little face.

As soon as you enter Da Chu, even if it is a border city, the prosperity and bustle in front of you still warm your heart.

Da Chu did not have the strict market system of Xuan Qin. There were all kinds of shops along the streets. Even in the evening, there were many people wearing thick clothes shopping on the street, seemingly shopping for New Year goods.

Many people hung red lanterns in front of their doors, and the doors emitted a dim and warm light. Not far away, the sound of children playing with firecrackers was heard, and the New Year atmosphere was overwhelming.

Xiao Xuan'er stood on the ground. Although Ning Wuxie knew that she would not be cold, she still bought her a hat and put it on her head, making her as cute as a rag doll. She looked at the candied haws in front of her, and mist came out of her little mouth.

"My brother always used candied haws to coax me every time he went on an adventure." She looked at Ning Wuxie's face behind the candied haws and whispered.

"Hehe, try one."

Xuan'er opened her little mouth and bit the first hawthorn. The crisp sound of the rock sugar breaking rang out. The red hawthorn was bitten off half by Xuan'er, and Ning Wuxie caught it with his other hand below, worried that it would fall out.

"Do you really think I'm fourteen years old?" Xuan'er grabbed the hand he stretched out.

"Sometimes I really miss those days..." Ning Wuxie smiled.

"Why?" Xuan'er held his hand tightly, chewing hawthorn in her mouth, making a crackling sound.

"Maybe I'm old."

"Don't talk nonsense, you can live a thousand years. That young man in the daytime actually called you uncle, really..."

"I am the uncle." Ning Wuxie smiled, "I'm over 30 years old."

"Brother is always brother."

Xuan'er took the candied haws from Ning Wuxie's hand, turned her head to him, and wanted to feed him.

Ning Wuxie looked at Xuan'er steadily, "I want to eat the one in your mouth."

Xuan'er was stunned, "It's all broken..."

"Don't mind."

Her face turned red, turned her head and looked around, they were huddled in the street, no one paid attention to this place.

Xuan'er looked at Ning Wuxie, took the candied haws away from between them, opened her cherry mouth slightly, and leaned over to get close to him.

Ning Wuxie raised his hand to support her chin, and opened his mouth to kiss her.

"Hmm..." Xuan'er made a comfortable sound.

At this moment, there was a loud and noisy sound of footsteps and a cry of surprise: "They are there!"

"Ah... He, they are... Oh my God!!"

Ning Wuxie quickly let go of Xuan'er's mouth, and the latter took a step back in a daze.

He turned his head and saw seven or eight Confucian disciples in green clothes on the corner of the street, staring at him in amazement. The one who pointed at him and screamed was the young man he had seen during the day.

He opened his mouth wide and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he had seen some horrible scene that the world could not tolerate.

Looking at his side again, Ning Wuxie was stunned.

It turned out to be...Meng Cangran.

He was not scared, but just smiled with tears in his eyes.
