Chapter 433: Searching for fragments and the truth



Chapter 433: Searching for fragments and the truth

The originally peaceful Mengze City was completely destroyed overnight. A huge rock carved into a mountain in front blocked the road and the news.

Li Changxiao realized that this matter was not simple without careful consideration. He was not in a hurry to leave, but continued to explore the city.

Even though the mermaids are wearing black robes, they are all tall and have extremely beautiful eyes. If they move around in the city, they will surely be seen by many people.

Even if those people have turned into corpses, it is still possible that they have left behind relevant information in the form of dream fragments.

Just like a waiter in a shop.

Li Changxiao went to the inn. The inn had three floors. The mermaids lived in the third room on the right row on the second floor.

Looking along the way, there were corpses everywhere, some with pierced hearts, some with broken heads, all killed in one blow, with blood all over the ground.

There is no need to elaborate on the various tragic scenes. Li Changxiao walked to the guest room rented by the mermaids in just a few steps.

Looking inside, it was the only room that was fairly tidy. Li Changxiao opened his dream senses, as if he had opened an eye, and saw everything around him more clearly.

He wanted to try to find and pick up the dream fragments of the mermaids, but obviously, this idea was a bit naive. The mermaids were also proficient in dreams, and it was extremely difficult to pick up dream fragments from them.

At first glance, there were no dream fragments left in this room. Li Changxiao did not give up. He searched carefully and scanned with his spiritual sense. He found a small piece of crystal on the right leg under the dressing table.

It was an extremely tiny fragment of a dream. Li Changxiao stretched out his index finger and touched the small piece of crystal.

He read through all the fragments of the dream.

Just a very brief scene.

In the picture, a mermaid woman's pupils shrank and she said in a lost voice: "This ancient tomb actually exists in this form?"

Then the picture disappeared.

Li Changxiao sat at the head of the bed, looking at himself in the dressing mirror.

I am certain that the tomb of the God of Dreams is nearby. And the people of the mermaid tribe have already grasped some clues.

Another extremely crucial point is that this tomb is very special, so special that even the powerful geniuses of the mermaid tribe were moved and had strong emotional fluctuations the moment they learned about it.

Otherwise no dream fragments will be left.

After thinking for a long time and sorting out some clues in his mind, Li Changxiao did not stay in the inn any longer. He went straight down the stairs and walked out of the inn.

Standing at the door of the inn, Li Changxiao looked at the shops around him and already had a plan in his mind.

At present, he knew very little about this ancient tomb. Instead of searching blindly and running around, it would be better to stay in this deserted town.

This tragedy was caused by the mermaids, so all you need to do is follow the clues step by step, and you will definitely encounter the mermaids.

The tomb of the God of Dreams naturally emerged as well.

After sorting out the priorities, Li Changxiao swept his spiritual sense and imprinted the main streets and the general urban structure of Mengze City into his mind.

Since this inn was once inhabited by mermaids, we should gradually expand outward from this point. If we are lucky, we may be able to completely restore the route of the mermaids after they arrived in Mengze City.

With this plan in mind, Li Changxiao immediately set his eyes on the dessert shop directly opposite the inn. He walked over to investigate and found that the owners of the dessert shop were a loving couple.

There were still candied fruits, rice cakes, and sugar balls left in the shop. Li Changxiao snatched the food from the mouse's mouth, snatched a sugar bean from it, wiped it with his white clothes, and threw it directly into his own mouth.

While chewing, look around.

"Go, go, go, what are you looking at?"

The mouse obviously didn't expect that there are such humans in the world who would even steal the food of mice. It was looking at Li Changxiao with a very humane look of surprise.

Li Changxiao became a little impatient with being stared at and kicked the mouse away.

There are no taboos for practitioners.

It didn't matter if the food was snatched from a rat's mouth. As long as it wasn't some filthy grain, he wouldn't feel any pain when eating it.

I tried both the good and the bad, but to be honest, this candy bean was sour and bitter and not delicious at all. In the end, I spit it out and rinsed my mouth with wine a few times before the taste gradually faded away.

The couple from the dessert shop really had an impression of the mermaids, and they had left behind quite a few fragments of their dreams.

Because they were right opposite each other, the couple could often see the mermaids going out when they were selling cakes during the day. They were tall and wore black robes, and no matter who they were, they would be impressed after seeing them a few times.

First, the clearest dream fragment.

This was the scene before the couple died. They saw several dark shadows walking out of the inn opposite, and as soon as they left the inn, they scattered in all directions.

Among them was a black shadow, who walked straight towards the couple and asked them how much the cakes were and which cake was the sweetest and most delicious. The black-robed man had a pleasant voice, and it was obviously a female voice. The couple thought that there must be a beautiful woman under the black robe, so they planned to charge her a few cents less and give her an extra cake as a gift.

When the woman was looking for money, she looked back and saw that her husband's head had fallen off. She was about to scream, but she felt dizzy and finally heard the sound of her head falling to the ground: "bang".

Completely plunged into darkness.

The dream fragment ends here.

Li Changxiao discovered a key point. When the mermaid killed people, he used one hand to protect the newly bought candied fruits and cakes to prevent them from being stained with blood.

"The means were decisive, cruel and cold." Li Changxiao murmured to himself, looking at the corpse on the ground and sighing. It was a pity and sad that the couple treated each other with kindness before they died.

Li Changxiao continued to pick up the fragments.

The fragments of the dream that followed were not so clear. Most of them were about seeing the black-robed people walking out of the hotel in groups, either heading east or west.

Just as Li Changxiao was about to look for clues in these two directions.

But suddenly I found out that it was in a very vague dream fragment.

When a group of black-robed men came out of the inn, there seemed to be a short figure beside them.

Because the couple's business was booming at the time, they only had a quick glance at the actions of the black-robed group, so their impression of this scene was very shallow and the picture was not clear.

It is even difficult to determine whether it is true or false.

However, Li Changxiao's eyes flickered slightly, this might be the key clue.

From the dream fragments of the couple in the shop, the people in black robes mostly moved in the east and west directions.

Therefore, if we look in these two directions, we may find more clues.
