Chapter 387: An Uninhabited Town, Man-Eating Objects

After confirming that the blood-colored moonlight outside did not have much impact, Ye Jianxing stepped out of the inn carefully.

When all exposed to the blood-colored moonlight, Ye Jianxing only felt an endless chill coming, which continuously penetrated into his body.

Fortunately, he did not find any bad effects, but felt a shock in his spirit, becoming more ethereal and clear.

The true qi in his body seemed to be constantly purified and became more pure.

If it continues like this, it may not take long for him to go further and break through to the middle stage of the innate.

Could it be that he really thought too much before.

In fact, these blood-colored moonlights do not have any disadvantages?

Seeing that Ye Jianxing did not have any problems, the rest of the people also walked out of the inn and bathed in the blood-colored moonlight.

Feeling a clearer mind, the true qi in the body was being purified little by little, and everyone couldn't help but show surprise on their faces.

"I didn't expect that the blood moon would have such an effect."

"I feel that I only need two or three days under this blood moon to break through to the Xiantian realm.

By then, I can also become a small flag.

By then, the master will be competent for the general flag, and I will be a small flag under the master's command."

In the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty, only those who are above the Xiantian can truly hold a powerful official position.

Just like Ye Jianxing, who is a strong man in the early Xiantian period, he can hold a small flag or even a general flag, commanding fifty Jinyiwei.

If you reach the middle Xiantian period, you can serve as a trial centurion and a centurion officer.

And in the late Xiantian period, you can serve as a thousand households.

The strong man in the Grandmaster realm can serve as a commander, a commander and a commander.

Of course, this is a rough division in the early Ming Dynasty.

Now, in fact, many rules have been broken.

In particular, many Jinyiwei positions are inherited from son to father.

Naturally, there are many generals who do not have the corresponding strength at all.

Of course, although these people inherited the official positions and received corresponding salaries, they actually did not have much control over their subordinates.

After all, if you let a person of acquired talent order a congenital strongman, I am afraid that he himself would be afraid, right?

If he is not careful, he will be slapped to death.

Therefore, many Jinyiwei who inherited their father's career could not even fill the quota of subordinates.

Small flags and general flags are still good. Even if they are only acquired, most of their subordinates are acquired, and they can still rely on the reputation of Jinyiwei to barely suppress them.

But if they are in a higher position, if they do not have the corresponding strength, they will definitely be alone.

Of course, there are also many people who have reached the corresponding strength but have not been promoted.

Although after Wei Zhongxian came to power, both the East Factory and the Jinyiwei have regained some of their splendor.

However, many of the drawbacks are still difficult to completely eliminate.

In other words, many of these problems are also due to Wei Zhongxian.

In short, the current Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty is no longer as prosperous as it used to be.

Otherwise, with Ye Jianxing's merits and strength, he would be more than qualified to be a general flag.

For ordinary people to be promoted, corresponding strength and merits are only the most basic requirements.

In other words, if ordinary people want to be promoted to a small flag, they must at least be in the innate realm and have enough merits.

As a small flag that climbed up from the bottom, most of the Jinyiwei under Ye Jianxing have enough merits.

The only thing they lack is strength.

As long as their strength is improved, it is still easy to get promoted.

The innate realm is already considered a strong man. Even if it is not as good as the master or the grand master, it is worth it for the Jinyiwei to win over with the position of a small flag.

In fact, it is only now that the Ming Dynasty is relatively stable and the Jinyiwei is famous again.

Otherwise, it is actually a bit petty to win over the innate strong with the position of a small flag.

If placed in some sects and families, it would at least be the backbone.

On the other side, after realizing the benefits of the blood-colored moonlight, it took a long time for everyone's excitement to calm down.

Then, everyone began to look at the surrounding environment.

The whole town was silent and dead, without a trace of movement, completely without the hustle and bustle of the day, and even without the chirping of insects and birds.

A hazy blood-colored moonlight fell, and the streets and houses were all reflected in a blood-colored color, which looked strange and gloomy.

Looking up, a blood moon that seemed to be able to drip blood was hanging, surrounded by a thick cloud, and only where the blood moon was, there was a layer of light mist.

It seemed as if it was deliberately like this, reserved for the blood moonlight to fall.

The overall look was like a blood-red single eye, looking down at the town from the sky.

After watching for a long time, Li Jianxing and others even felt that the blood-red single eye seemed to blink slightly, revealing a hint of teasing.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help rubbing their eyes hard and looking at the blood moon in the sky again.

The blood moon hung quietly in the sky, and it seemed that nothing had changed.

"Huh~!"

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, Ye Jianxing directed everyone to form groups of five and began to carefully check around the inn.

After the inspection, everyone was shocked to discover that not only the waiter of the inn, but also the surrounding residents had completely disappeared.

It seemed as if the people in the entire town had disappeared in an instant.

This strange situation immediately set off alarm bells for Ye Jianxing and others.

"Ah~!"

And just when Ye Jianxing was about to leave the town immediately after everyone returned, he suddenly heard a scream from the back door of the inn.

"Hmm~?"

After everyone heard this, they immediately looked in that direction. Ye Jianxing quickly mobilized the energy in his body, jumped onto the courtyard wall in a flash, and swept towards the back door at high speed.

Seeing this, everyone else jumped up one after another and ran quickly towards the back door.

When Ye Jianxing arrived at the back door, he saw three Jinyi guards running towards the front yard in panic.

Ye Jianxing flashed and appeared in front of the three of them.

"Ah~! Ghost!"

In an instant, the three of them screamed again, turned around and ran away.

"it's me!"

Frowning at the embarrassed three people, Ye Jianxing couldn't help but yell angrily.

Hearing Ye Jianxing's voice, the three of them relaxed slightly, their running figures slowly stopped, and they looked back anxiously.

Seeing that it was indeed Ye Jianxing, the three of them relaxed completely and hurried forward, saying in panic:

"grown ups!"

"What's going on? What happened to you? Where are the other two? Didn't I tell you not to separate?"

"Disappeared!"

"melted"

"There are ghosts here, invisible ghosts"

"Been, eaten by money"

"Dead, dead, they are all dead"

Ye Jianxing couldn't help but frowned when he heard the three people's inconsistent answers. What's the matter? What was eaten by money?

Involuntarily, Ye Jianxing shouted loudly again.

"Quiet! Come one by one, speak slowly, tell me from beginning to end, what exactly happened?"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

After being shocked by the innate true energy contained in Ye Jianxing, the three people finally calmed down a little, and then they explained the cause and effect.

Just now, a group of five of them were exploring the situation at the back door and entered a house opposite the back door.

Then they found dozens of taels of silver in a hidden compartment, and the two of them took it in their hands out of greed.

Originally, they were going to share some among the three of them.

However, before they could share it with them, as soon as the two of them walked to the door, a burst of blood suddenly erupted above the silver coins, quickly covering the two of them.

Under this bloody light, the bodies of the two people melted quickly, and soon they also turned into bloody light, and then merged into the silver.

The remaining three people immediately ran away screaming in fear, and then met Ye Jianxing.

Hearing this, Ye Jianxing couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, and said in a deep voice:

"Where? Take me there."

"this"

After hearing Ye Jianxing's words, the three of them couldn't help but look at each other with hesitation. None of them wanted to go back to that weird place.

However, as members of the Jin Yiwei, they did not dare to disobey Ye Jianxing's orders.

In the end, after Ye Jianxing's face suddenly darkened and a vague innate force locked onto the three of them, the three of them still led Ye Jianxing and the people who came after them to the courtyard opposite the back door of the inn.

Sure enough, the back door of the inn and the courtyard opposite were all open. It was obviously what a few people had just done.

"Huh~!"

Taking a deep breath secretly, everyone cautiously stepped into the courtyard. Just in front of a bedroom door, everyone saw the dozens of silver cars that the three people mentioned before.

But at this moment, they were scattered on the ground, shining with a touch of metallic blood under the bloody moonlight.

but

After Ye Jianxing observed carefully, he suddenly asked the three of them.

"Are you sure it's dozens of taels of silver?"

"Um!"

"Definitely. In a small town like this, a family with dozens of taels of silver is already very valuable."

"Anyway, it will never exceed one hundred taels."

"Yeah?"

Ye Jianxing pointed to the silver scattered on the ground in front of him and said in a solemn tone.

"Look carefully, does it look like it only has dozens of taels of silver?"

"Well"

When everyone heard this, they were not only slightly startled, but then they all looked at it carefully.

"Huh~? How do I feel? That's at least more than two hundred taels of silver?"

"Yeah, how can it be that there are only dozens of taels? There are more than two hundred taels, right?"

"Could it be that the two people from before lied and wanted to get the big head?"

Someone couldn't help but guess.

"It's indeed possible!"

Many people nodded in agreement.

Well, that's more than two hundred taels of silver, so it's not impossible for such a thing to happen.

It is even said that most people will withhold part of it.

At least, that's what they think.

However, Ye Jianxing put forward different opinions.

"Well, is it possible that there are other circumstances?"

"Other cases?"

For a moment, everyone was a little confused.

Looking at everyone, Ye Jianxing spoke slowly and inexplicably.

"For example, the silver gained growth after devouring two people."

"."

The moment Ye Jianxing finished speaking, everyone fell silent, a chill ran down their spines and rushed straight to the back of their heads, and their hair stood up instantly.

After a long while, someone swallowed his saliva secretly, and said with difficulty:

"Hehe, how is this possible?"

"How is this impossible?"

Ye Jianxing glanced at the courtyard shrouded in blood-red moonlight, and retorted lightly.

"Uh"

Everyone looked at the blood-red world, and they were all speechless.

Think about what the three people said before, that the silver swallowed two people.

Then in this strange place, it seems that it is not impossible that the silver can be increased by swallowing humans.

After a long silence, Ye Jianxing spoke again.

"Let's go back to the inn and check the situation of the inn.

Be careful not to take things casually.

Then just see if there are any precious items dropped underground"

".Yes!"

Hearing Ye Jianxing's order, everyone was stunned at first, and then they reacted thoughtfully.

Ye Jianxing thought that maybe the missing person had messed with the valuables here and was swallowed by those valuables.

Thinking of that situation, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill.

Who could have thought of this?

With the style of their Jinyiwei in the past, it was normal to collect some money and items when performing tasks.

If they hadn't paid more attention to searching for missing persons and clues before, they might not have searched for gold, silver, finances and precious items.

After returning to the inn and searching, everyone really found some places where some gold, silver and precious items were left.

Gathering together again, everyone fell into silence.

Unexpectedly, it was really like this.

Some of their bad habits in the past actually harmed them at this time.

However, as long as they didn't take things randomly, there would be no problem.

So, after some thought, Ye Jianxing finally decided that everyone would go to various parts of the town to check the situation of the town.

Watching everyone leave, Ye Jianxing looked at the restaurant opposite with white paper lanterns hanging.

With his internal Qi running, Ye Jianxing flashed and instantly jumped into the restaurant through an open window.

The restaurant was quiet, without any human figures, like a ghost building that had been uninhabited for a long time.

After checking back and forth and finding nothing, Ye Jianxing went to other places again.

However, there were no human figures in several places, including the place where the mayor of the town lived and the outermost houses of the town.

It was not until about five o'clock in the morning that Ye Jianxing and others returned.

After communicating with each other, it was finally confirmed that the whole town was completely empty, as if everyone had left.

Just when Ye Jianxing was thinking about whether to leave the town, a sound of a night watchman beating the night watch suddenly came from a distance.

"~!!"

One long and four short, the fifth watch has arrived. (End of this chapter)
