Chapter 69 The disappearing baby

Ruan Xia looked around and saw that the light beams of several other array eyes appeared for only a moment, and then the surroundings returned to silence.

The array activation failed!

She destroyed the formation one step too quickly, but her skillful method of drawing thunder was useless after all.

"You! You actually broke my formation."

Ruan Xia snorted coldly, "What's so difficult about this?"

She has yet to encounter a formation that she cannot break!

The old Taoist was so angry that he was trembling all over. He punched Ruan Xia in the direction. The thunder in the air was sharp and harsh, and the scenery in front of him was instantly swallowed up by the wind of the fist.

Ruan Xia chuckled softly and gently raised his left wrist. The bracelet burst out with dazzling light. The halo revolved around Ruan Xia, forming an impeccable protective cover in an instant.

She lowered her eyes, adjusted her breath with luck, and quickly kneaded the secrets with her hands. Then with a flick of his finger, a lightsaber transformed from spiritual power went straight towards the old path with a cold breath.

"ah--"

After a wailing cry, the old man fell from the height and fell to the ground.

"With this little ability, you still want to fight me?"

Ruan Xia was about to go over to capture him and ask him to understand. Not far from the old Taoist, he saw the old Taoist raise his hand and take out some yellow powder from his sleeve.

Follow the wind and come straight towards Ruan Xia.

"No, it's poisonous!"

She hurriedly covered her mouth and nose. When the powder in front of her eyes cleared, the old Tao who was lying on the ground had disappeared.

"You escaped quite quickly!"

"Ruan Xia!"

Suddenly a familiar voice came from far away.

Ruan Xia looked in the direction of the sound, and it turned out to be Mo Tingye.

That usually expressionless face now looked a little worried.

"Are you okay? Your body hasn't recovered yet. Yuan Qi said there are people setting up formations here."

Ruan Xia trotted to meet Mo Tingye, feeling happy inside.

"Look, I'm fine. That bad Taoist priest took one move from me and ran away. It's a pity that I couldn't catch him."

After saying this, he jumped around in circles as if he was afraid that Mo Tingye wouldn't believe it.

"By the way, I discovered that this formation and the last lucky formation were both created by the same person. This person is also the person behind Xu Rongchang. As long as we find him, everything will be clear."

Mo Tingye didn't say anything. He stretched out his hand to gather the broken hair around her ears. After a long while, he slowly spoke.

"Why are there two of us in that painting? Have we known each other a long time ago?"

Mo Tingye's eyes flashed, as if he was expecting some kind of answer.

Ruan Xia met his eyes and said, "I don't know, I seem to have lost a certain part of my memory. What is certain is that there is some kind of connection between you and me."

Mo Tingye lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something.

"Does the person setting up the formation know all this?"

Ruan Xia nodded, "It's very possible that since he is targeting the Mo family, it must be related to you. As for me, I believe that the Taoist priest will go back to report soon, and he will not let me go."

She explained in an understatement, but Mo Tingye's brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

Ruan Xia quickly took his arm.

"It's okay, they are no match for me, let's go home."

In the evening, in an alley, a woman was walking on the road unconsciously. Her eyes were distracted, but she still walked forward mechanically.

At this time, she didn't know where she was going, where she could go, or what she was going to do. There was only a voice that kept thinking in her mind.

"Looking for babies... looking for many, many babies... looking for Zihe cars... many, many..."

In front of her, a pregnant woman with a big belly was walking hard with one hand on her belly and talking on the phone with the other hand.

"Husband, where are you? I suddenly have a stomachache. Come pick me up."

The zombie-like dull woman looked at the pregnant woman's belly after hearing the sound, with greed in her eyes. She walked towards the pregnant woman unconsciously, with lust shining in her eyes.

At this time, the pregnant woman only felt unbearable pain. She sat down against the street lamp, her body shivering in pain, and soon a water stain appeared under her body.

This road was very secluded, no pedestrians passed by at this time, only the painful moans of pregnant women could be heard.

The woman's consciousness seemed to have recovered a lot. She walked to the pregnant woman and heard the man's voice coming one after another on the phone.

The woman threw the pregnant woman's mobile phone far away with brute force.

"Wife! Wife! Did you hear that? Hey...Wife, where are you? Send me your location."

The man on the other side of the phone kept shouting into the receiver, but unfortunately the only response he received from the other side was the whistling of the wind.

"What's wrong, Brother Zhang? My sister-in-law is going to give birth?"

Seeing his anxious look, the colleagues on the side couldn't help but ask.

"My wife just called me and said she had a stomachache. The due date was coming soon. I was afraid she was going to give birth. I asked her where she was and there was no movement."

A colleague comforted me, “Maybe you didn't hear me, so you can call me again."

Called again, still no one answered.

"No, I have to hurry over and take a look. You can tie up the rest of the trouble for me. I won't work overtime today. I'll go find my wife."

Colleagues nodded quickly and agreed. The entire unit knew that Brother Zhang’s wife was about to give birth, and everyone usually tried not to let him work the night shift.

At the same time, a crisp sound came from the news station on the table.

"Recently, another vicious murder case occurred in our country. The criminal's methods were extremely cruel. They mainly targeted pregnant women who were about to give birth. After killing the pregnant women with sharp tools, they cut open the pregnant women's stomach and took away the baby and placenta. Since the case occurred There is no surveillance at the location, and there are no witnesses. No suspects have been caught yet..."

"The police have not yet found the suspect. We would like to remind the general public, especially those with pregnant women at home, to be sure not to let pregnant women go out alone, and try not to go out at night to avoid being targeted by criminal suspects..."

The host's expression on the news was very serious, rumors were spreading, and the suspect was not caught for a long time, causing many citizens to panic.

Yuan Qi picked up a piece of green vegetables from the pot and put it on a plate, murmuring to himself, “These are two victims. The police didn't find the murderer. If this continues, I don't know how many more people will be killed."

Ruan Xia asked while putting vegetables into his bowl, “Are there no witnesses? It was too hidden."

Mo Tingye put down the chopsticks in his hand and poured a bowl of soup for Ruan Xia.

He slowly said, “Isn't the most bizarre thing about this matter not the modus operandi? And what about taking away the baby and placenta?"

Ruan Xia's hand holding the vegetables froze.

"The murderer hasn't been found yet, so it's hard to say anything, but..."

She took the soup bowl from Mo Tingye and took a sip.

The hot soup enters the mouth and flows down the esophagus to the stomach, warming the whole person.

"I'm afraid that someone will use evil magic to refine the corpse."

When the words fell to the ground, the other two people on the table were stunned.

Seeing that his words frightened the two of them, Ruan Xia quickly added.

"This murderer not only left no evidence that could be found, but also cleverly avoided surveillance. He must be a thoughtful person. Such a brutal method of removing the child through disembowelment shows that this person is ruthless. I'm afraid there will be more victims. "

Ruan Xia put down her chopsticks and suddenly felt that she couldn't eat any more.

"No, I have to take care of this. How can I dress up like a pregnant woman?"

Mo Tingye frowned, "No, you are not facing an evil ghost, but a living evil person. This is too dangerous."

Yuan Qi echoed from the side.

"Sister Ruan, don't try so hard. The police didn't even catch you. Do you want to take the risk?"

The more Ruan Xia thought about it, the more she felt that she had to take care of it. When she was young, her master once taught her a trick of waiting for the rabbit, and it came in handy.

She took a round pillow from the sofa and stuffed it under her clothes. She checked it and felt it was the right size.

He turned around and said, "I still feel that this technique does not look like something done by a normal person. If it is a person who knows magic, there are many ways to hide from the eyes of the police. I have to take a look and see who is responsible. "

She had an ominous feeling that this was not that simple.
