Chapter 993 Empty House
"This has to start with the fact that Miaozhen was injured," said the Taoist priest, "you know something, before the two came back, when we entered this room, we were hindered a bit."
Li Muyuan nodded, "I know this, before we left, Miaozhen cast a lot of spells in this room."
"Not only that, he also left a five-watch Tiantian pendant on Zhuge Shou as a last resort," said the Taoist priest, "and this pendant is something that every disciple in the five-guard day has. , Through the Tian Pei, the master can come to rescue the disciples when they are threatened."
Xia Hua raised her index finger, placed it on her chin, and thought, "That's true."
"So..." Li Muyuan said, "The heavenly pendant on Miaozhen's body should be..."
"It is what Laoqiao left him," Xia Hua said, "Miaozhen is the disciple brought up by Laoqiao himself."
"But when Miaozhen was injured, Master didn't come to rescue..." Li Muyuan murmured, "I understand, this is also a doubt."
"As for whether Tian Pei can be used for eavesdropping, in fact, I did an experiment." said the Taoist priest.
"Ask Ling!" Luo Jiutian raised his index finger and said loudly.
"Yes," said the Taoist priest with a slight smile, "First of all, because Patriarch Xia Hua said that reinforcements will arrive in a few days, and Qiao Moqin is one of them, which means that Wenling will meet Qiao Moqin, so I guess that before they arrive, the spirits may be in danger...
"So, in this room, in front of you, I said that Wenling would stay here with me," said the Taoist priest, "but in fact, Wenling has gone to Xinjing with Xiaolan and the others."
Li Muyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"But Ms. Wenling's room was still under attack." Xia Hua said.
Daoist priest nodded, "It's not about Ling's room, but about Ling's bed, this... he should know."
The priest lowered his gaze and looked at the man who fainted in the corner.
"This shows that the scope of Laoqiao's ability to eavesdrop through Tianpei is limited," Xia Hua said blankly, "I understand everything... Daoist priest, it's hard for you to think so much."
"Since this side's attack on Miss Wenling failed..." Li Muyuan said, "Wouldn't they be in danger in Xinjing?"
Daochang sighed, "No way, although this step is a bit risky, but I have to, at least through this step I have confirmed two points: one is that the enemy can indeed eavesdrop on us through Tianpei, and the other is... they are indeed afraid to ask questions. spirit."
"I have to tell them these things quickly," Luo Jiutian took out his mobile phone, "Eh? Why is there no signal?"
Dao Chang was stunned for a moment, then took out his cell phone in his pocket.
There is no signal on his own cell phone, and the news still stays at the moment when Xiaolan and the others just got off the plane to inform him that he is safe.
"I don't have mine either." Xia Hua raised her head.
"Me too," Li Muyuan also said, "what's going on?"
"Don't panic," the Taoist priest quickly walked to the window and put his mobile phone out of the window, "Maybe this person's attack just now affected the signal around here."
"I'll try it in the opposite room." Xia Hua said and walked out the door.
The Taoist priest looked out of the window, the night was dark, the surrounding windows were all pitch black, the streets were empty, and the Taoist priest was inexplicably depressed.
"I can't make calls," Li Muyuan said. "Could it be that the base station was damaged?"
"You are here to protect Miaozhen and Brother Zhuge, I'll go downstairs to see." Luo Jiutian said.
"Can you be alone?" Li Muyuan said, "There may be danger down there."
Luo Jiutian said seriously, "I'm not alone."
Under Li Muyuan's confused eyes, Luo Jiutian and Lao Luo ran out of the bedroom together.
"There is no signal in the hallway or the room opposite," Xia Hua came back, "It's really strange, and I don't know when it started."
"Isn't their attack over yet?" Li Muyuan said.
"Daoist?" Xia Hua looked at the Taoist's back and asked, "What are you looking at?"
The two walked over, following the priest's line of sight, and looked at the world outside the window.
"No one..." The Taoist priest said silently.
"It's all this time, it's normal that no one is there." Li Muyuan said.
The moon hangs alone in the center of the black-gray sky, like a big bright yellow eye.
"I'm a little uneasy." Xia Hua said bluntly.
"Me too," the Taoist priest turned around, "Everyone must be careful."
"Otherwise wake him up and ask." Li Muyuan pointed at the man on the ground and said.
"Wait first, and I don't think he may know about it," the Taoist said. "Wait for nine days to come back."
As soon as the Daoist Master finished speaking, there was a burst of hurried footsteps in the corridor. After a while, Luo Jiutian rushed into the room with a whimper.
As soon as they saw his appearance, everyone knew the nature of the news he was going to report.
"It's not good!" Luo Jiutian said hoarsely, "There is no one downstairs, the boss and the proprietress are gone!"
"Gone?!" Xia Huaxing stared.
Daochang had a white face, and walked a few steps to the bedroom opposite. After returning, he said in a calm voice, "Looking out from the window opposite, there is no one in sight."
"No way..." Li Muyuan was dumbfounded.
"We have to go out and see." Xia Hua said.
"Well, Jiutian and I went outside the hotel to take a look. How about you two protect Miaozhen and Zhuge here?" said the Taoist priest.
Xia Hua nodded, "You must pay attention to safety, beware of sneak attacks."
"You too."
Daoist Master and Luo Jiutian hurried up the stairs and ran downstairs.
"Did Director Luo find anything unusual?" The Taoist priest asked Lao Luo behind the two.
Lao Luo's brows were furrowed more tightly than anyone else's, and the words between his brows were extremely clear. He shook his head and said, "I don't feel anything at all."
"If someone in Qiaowu Town dies suddenly, you will definitely receive the news, right?" Luo Jiutian said hopefully, "Then these disappeared people, shouldn't they be dead?"
"Qiaomu Town is still in charge of Lingluo," Lao Luo said, "but if she receives news, she must go back to Qiaomu to deal with it. I can feel she hasn't come back yet."
The three of them ran to the lobby on the first floor. The hall was brightly lit, the computer screen at the front desk was also on, and there were still traces of someone on the table, but the person who was supposed to be here was nowhere to be seen.
Daoist priest looked at the corridor at the other end, "Jiutian, have you checked the room inside?"
"I checked them all," Luo Jiutian said. "They are all empty, they are really gone."
