Lu Yuxuan didn't seem to want to explain the pile of skeletons, but when he met Ruan Li's eyes that were particularly hungry for the truth, he sighed helplessly and said slowly, "General Bones was only a few steps away from ascending and died as a martyr. Later, his body never withered or decayed, and he became the patron saint of our Shenmeng City for decades before he turned into white bones. Later, the stars changed, the world changed, and the bones of General Bones were scattered everywhere. These were collected by me since I took over as the city lord. I lowered it to express my gratitude to General Gu for his righteousness."

He sighed, "I came here today just to express my inner feelings to General Bone. After all, I can't tell others what's on my mind. I don't want you to misunderstand me."

Ruan Li and Wei Min looked at each other. They had an intuition that this matter was not that simple, but there was indeed only a pile of corpses here, and there were no clues about the formation. They had no evidence to refute Lu Yuxuan's words.

Back at their residence, Yue Man and the others didn't rest. They had just returned from the leader of the White Walkers and were in a depressed mood. They sighed when they saw Ruan Li.

"Have you found anything? This battle really cannot be fought. There are only old, weak, women and children left in the White Walkers."

They don't want to get involved in this kind of thing, but they really can't stand it. Although they have seen some violent and hateful White Walkers in the past few days in Shenmeng City, most of them are actually no different from ordinary people. It's not like they want to be White Walkers. Yes, even if this is strange, the demons who caused trouble should be blamed. Lu Yuxuan's approach was really too extreme.

Ruan Li: "There is gain, but there is no gain."

She told what happened in the secret passage, and several people murmured for a moment, feeling that Lu Yuxuan must not have told the truth.

"I don't know what the formation is in the secret passage. It's a pity that none of us know how to do it." Ruan Li said, noticing that Xiao Mei in the Qiankun Bag had been making a lot of noise since just now, and she was so annoyed that she threw it at it. He did a few sleep tricks to keep this guy quiet for a while.

She thought, "You still have to keep an eye on Lu Yuxuan."

There is no other clue at the moment, only Lu Yuxuan is showing weirdness in every aspect, so we still have to start with him.

None of them had any objections. They just talked about the fact that the Immortal Alliance had not sent a reply. They were worried that something had gone wrong, so they decided to send someone to deliver the message in person. Everyone recommended the job to Gu Bai.

Yue Man urged, "Let the alliance leader think carefully. It would be best if he could come to meet us in person, and at the worst he would have to send two elders."

They haven't found the whereabouts of the red ambergris yet, and the demons are probably the same. They have no clue even if they try to find it. The most likely scenario is that the two demons intend to rob it openly, otherwise they wouldn't have come together at once, so they must be hiding Mantis. The thought of catching cicadas and oriole behind is too late to ask for help by then, but coming early can easily cause trouble. I hope the leader can seize the opportunity.

Nangong He added garrulously, "Don't come too early. We, as disciples, can still act like young people messing around when we interfere in the affairs of Shenmeng City. If the elders or alliance leaders come, we will not be able to explain this matter clearly."

After all, the power of the Immortal League is not big enough to manage the "household affairs" of Shenmeng City, but if they don't intervene, the current situation here is like fishing in troubled waters, which is really a headache.

Gu Bai: "..."

You guys are really hard to take care of.

"You came early and you can hide," Ruan Li expressed great expectations to Gu Bai, hoping that he could successfully attract reinforcements.

Of course, she was not idle either. Ruan Li went for a walk outside and found that the battlefield had been cleaned up. She remembered what the leader had said before and asked someone to inquire, "Did you really throw all the corpses at the city gate? "

The passers-by glanced at her, looking more confused than she was, "How could they throw it at the city gate? Then what has happened to our Shenmeng City? The corpses are all disposed of under the order of the city lord. They are first collected in the corpse pit outside the city and then buried together."

There is nothing strange about this treatment method, but Ruan Li then heard the passerby say in a disgusted tone, "The White Walkers are indeed inhumane. Even their bodies are different from us. The city lord is right, they are completely alien." , no different from the demons." Ruan Li was about to turn around and leave, and then perked up his ears when he heard the words, "What's the difference?"

How else are corpses different?

The man seemed to not want to remember anymore, and spoke vaguely, "You don't know if you haven't seen it. The corpses of those White Walkers are so shriveled after death. It is said that they don't bleed at all and have no blood to shed. Do you think it's strange? They really don't have any blood to shed." not human!"

Ruan Li frowned. She was at the scene yesterday and had seen the appearance of the White Walkers after death. None of them were as "shrive" as this person said. Even demons would bleed. This rumor was too ridiculous.

But then she thought, what if this wasn't a rumor?
What if the shriveled corpse was man-made?

Ruan Li immediately joined the others and briefly stated her thoughts. Before they could react, Wei Min suddenly remembered something and his expression turned cold.

"There is a kind of formation that requires blood to be nourished. It is a kind of evil magic that can be used to exchange lives and guide spirits. The condition is that the blood needs to be connected to the bloodline of the formation master, and it requires the blood of many people to perform the spell in large quantities."

Yue Man shuddered, "What do you mean, are you saying that the shriveled corpses of these White Walkers are because they have been drained of blood? Lu Yuxuan used the blood of these White Walkers to create formations?"

She couldn't figure it out, "Does Lu Yuxuan want to change his life or something?"

Life-changing is a magic trick used by people who are on the verge of death. In order to give themselves a chance of survival, Lu Yuxuan doesn't need this.

Jingsi said "Amitabha" and said hesitantly, "You can't get living blood half an hour after death. If this is the case, there should be some strange ghosts that are still alive when Lu Yuxuan takes blood."

There were many seriously injured people on the battlefield. It was not uncommon for some White Walkers to fall into Lu Yuxuan's hands when they were on the verge of death. This was probably how he got the blood.

Is this why Lu Yuxuan insists on exterminating the White Walkers?Because he needs White Walker blood?

Ruan Li was thinking about something else, "Blood connection... Lu Yuxuan is a monk. If he wants to use blood, shouldn't he use the blood of Shenmengren?"

The number of survivors in Shenmeng City is not large. It is not uncommon for incestuous marriages to have been passed down for hundreds of years. The relationship is very close. It is reasonable to say that they are "blood connected". Lu Yuxuan wants to find someone who is connected to him by blood. Almost All dreamers can.

But the abnormality of "shrunk corpse" only appeared on the body of the White Walkers, indicating that Lu Yuxuan did use the blood of the White Walkers.

"Unless Lu Yuxuan is not the leader of the formation, he set up this formation for others."

Who could make Lu Yuxuan willing to pay such a price, go to war, and set up this formation even if both sides were injured?
Yue Man couldn't figure it out and murmured in a low voice, "It's not about exchanging lives, it's about attracting spirits...Whose spirit does Lu Yuxuan want to attract?"

In an instant, Ruan Li and Wei Min thought of a possibility at the same time.

The condition for opening this formation here, "blood connection", does not mean that it must be a blood connection between relatives. A more distant relationship is also possible.
