Chapter 637 Something fishy is going on

Yang Yiyi had absolute 100% trust in Li Chengxi. If he said that the sun in the sky was actually green, Yang Yiyi would probably believe it.

In the unfamiliar place of Southern Xinjiang, all her friends were captured. Yang Yiyi, who was already panicking and picking her feet, was completely at a loss.

However, although Li Chengxi was also surprised, he did not panic. Panic would definitely not work at this time.

So he thought calmly and first needed to sort out the clues.

He was not familiar with other people in the Sixteen Villages. In this case, the most likely place to find clues should be Wu Shaoyi and Qin Yan's room.

The doors of the two rooms were closed. If Yang Yiyi had not seen blood in front of the door, she might have thought that Wu Shaoyi and Qin Yan were still resting.

The door was not locked, but only half-closed. Yang Yiyi kicked the door open and entered Qin Yan's room first.

The furnishings in the room were the same. There was a round table in the middle, a green plant or something on one side, and a bed at the back of the room, but there was no figure of Qin Yan.

But surprisingly, the room didn't look messy, and it didn't look like someone had fought inside. It was just that the quilt on the bed was not folded properly. Judging from the shape, it looked like someone had carried Qin Yan away while she was sleeping.

Yang Yiyi was about to ask Li Chengxi if he had seen anything, but before she could say anything, she heard Li Chengxi say again:

"Go to Wu Shaoyi's room and take another look."

Yang Yiyi did the same thing again, kicking the door open.

Wu Shaoyi's room was similar to Qin Yan's room, except that the shape of the quilt was slightly different, and it looked like someone had carried her away while she was sleeping.

"Well, there's nothing to see. Let's go and leave Fenghuang Village first."

Yang Yiyi had a lot of questions in her mind, but Li Chengxi said to leave Fenghuang Village, so Yang Yiyi immediately turned around and ran out of the inn again.

On the way, they also met an old man who came with a cane:

"Lady, what are you doing..."

"Let's see what's going on. I'll go after him now."

Yang Yiyi didn't even stop. She left a word and ran out of the inn. She ran all the way out of Fenghuang Village. When she ran to a place where no one was, Li Chengxi said:

"This matter is quite strange. What the old man said may not be true."

"Ah? Brother Li, do you mean that the old man lied to me?"

"It may not be completely wrong, but it is definitely not all."

This was said like a riddle. Li Chengxi then explained:

"There was no sign of fighting in Qin Yan and Wu Shaoyi's room. They should have been kidnapped because they were drugged and could not resist. But it was too clean."

"Is there anything wrong?"

"Think about it, where did Wu Shaoyi's wheelchair and Qin Yan's bag go?"

This reminder made Yang Yiyi realize that something was wrong.

Others didn't have the Book of Heaven to help them pack their luggage. Qin Yan had been carrying a small bag from beginning to end, and Wu Shaoyi needed a wheelchair because of his inconvenience in walking.

If they were just here to arrest someone, why would they take the wheelchair and bag with them?

"In addition, the old man said that someone from Fenghuang Village colluded with Baofeng Village and secretly put drugs in the food, but this is not just one or two. Together with the Sixteen Villages and a few Jianghu wanderers, there are more than twenty of you in total. It is a bit unrealistic for so many people to be implicated at the same time."

"Brother Li, do you mean that the old man lied to me, and in fact Qin Yan and Wu Shaoyi were all locked up in Fenghuang Village?"

"Not necessarily, look at the footprints on the road."

Yang Yiyi looked down. Since this road leads from Fenghuang Village to Xiashan Town, there are footprints and wheel tracks everywhere on the road.

At first glance, there is nothing wrong, but if you follow the footprints to the side of the road, you will find that dense footprints have left the road.

"Businessmen who come to do business will definitely not go to the wild. Those footprints are very new and heavy, as if they are holding someone. It is indeed as the old man said, they went to the northwest."

It can be considered as good luck. It happened to rain heavily before, and the soil was still very soft. When I stepped on it, the footprints were particularly clear.

Judging from the direction of the footprints, they were the kind that came and went, indicating that outsiders did come to Fenghuang Village in the middle of the night.

"This Fenghuang Village is not big. I just took a quick look and didn't find a basement that could accommodate more than 20 people. It seems that they were indeed captured, but the old man's words cannot be fully believed."

When looking at Wu Shaoyi and Qin Yan's room, Li Chengxi used the perspective adjustment function to look at the shallow surface and confirmed that there was indeed no basement in Fenghuang Village.

If they were simply locked in the bamboo house, they would definitely call for help. It is impossible that there was no movement at all.

"Anyway, let's follow the footprints first. If they just wanted to kidnap people instead of killing them, they wouldn't be able to go far with more than 20 unconscious people."

This analysis made Yang Yiyi feel relieved, and she immediately used the four-step technique to follow the footprints.

But there was one thing Li Chengxi didn't say, the whole thing was weird.

The people from Baofeng Village came all the way to capture people?

Since they are hostile to the Central Plains people, why not just chop them as soon as they enter the door? What's the point of taking everyone away with time and effort?

The missing heroes of the Sixteen Villages were indeed not seen in Fenghuang Village, nor among the corpses, so the other party's purpose was somewhat puzzling.

And the timing was too coincidental. It happened to be the time when the martial artists in the inn separated. If they were one day earlier, they would have to face hundreds of martial artists. Such a coincidence is definitely not normal.

But instead of letting Yang Yiyi worry, why not tell her first and wait until we catch up.

–-——–--——

Yang Yiyi herself didn't know when the inn was attacked in the middle of the night. She didn't feel anything. Even though the people outside were killing with red eyes, Yang Yiyi was still sleeping soundly, which shows how strong the drug was.

The effect of ordinary knockout drugs on Yang Yiyi was not obvious. After all, her tendons and bones were too high, which was equivalent to an extremely good physique.

Just like ordinary people would fall asleep on the spot after taking a few sleeping pills, Yang Yiyi took dozens of pills and only felt bitter in her mouth. There was no major impact.

This is the difference between people and physiques.

Besides, the heroes of the Sixteen Villages are extremely experienced in the martial arts world. They can taste the knockout drugs with just a sip. It feels like it may be a special medicine unique to southern Xinjiang.

After all, this place is famous for witchcraft, and the witchcraft does not only refer to insects, but also medicine.

It must be said that Li Chengxi is still very lucky, thanks to asking Aoerdai for magic items in advance.

Yang Yiyi had experienced many times of being attacked in the middle of the night, so Li Chengxi asked Aoerdai if there was a way to solve this problem. He didn't expect that Yang Yiyi would use it as soon as he got it.

There was a lot of fighting outside, but Yang Yiyi was fine. It must be the Naga Guardian that worked.

Of course, Li Chengxi hadn't told Yang Yiyi about these things yet. She was now concentrating on finding footprints on the ground and running all the way to chase them.

The old man said that Baofeng Village was northwest of Fenghuang Village, outside the nine mountains and nine waters. Although the distance was not accurately stated, it was clear from this description that it would definitely not be very close.

If it was really the people from Baofeng Village who took Wu Shaoyi and Qin Yan away, it would be impossible for them to run too far in just one night.

After all, the mountain road was difficult to walk on. Even the locals could not have two more legs than the people in the Central Plains. They were just more familiar with it and took fewer detours.
