However, no matter how low the strength is, Aoki Jue is also a superior exercise, and it is still much more powerful than ordinary exercises.

Li Qiu practiced the four exercises with their own strengths, including two superior exercises, and after all of them reached the eighth layer, his strength was already able to cross the border and fight, rivaling the martial artists of the visceral cultivation period.

......

In the yamen of Shangjiang City.

Wang Bochao's expression was solemn and he listened to the report of his subordinates.

"Head catcher, we just received a report, dozens of miles south of Shangjiang City, there is a village, more than 100 villagers were all slaughtered, the death is extremely miserable, suspected of being a ghost!"

A catcher looked frightened and hugged his fists.

Wang Bochao nodded, and there was a gloomy cloud between his eyebrows.

This is the third village to be slaughtered!

In the morning, he received a report that two villages had been found to have been slaughtered, and he hurried there with the arrester to investigate.

In one of the villages, the corpses of the villagers were rotting and stinking, and the massacre of the village was estimated to have been two days ago, but only today has it been discovered.

There is also a village, judging from the corpse spots on the corpses of the villagers, it should be last night.

From the deaths of the villagers in the two villages, Wang Bochao confirmed that they were all done by ghosts.

He suspected that the gray-clothed ghost who had disappeared for a while had reappeared.

A few months ago, after the gray-clothed Yin Ghost injured him and killed so many hunters, Wang Bochao asked Guan Hao to kill the Yin Ghost.

Guan Hao led his soldiers to search carefully around Shangjiang City, but found no trace of the gray-clothed ghost.

For a long time, the gray-clothed yin ghost did not reappear to kill, Guan Hao and Wang Bochao thought that the gray-clothed yin ghost should have left the area of Shangjiang City, and the matter was finally over.

Now, a few months later, there is another ghost slaughtering village, and Wang Bochao thinks that it is very likely that the gray-clothed ghost did it.

He knew that with his own strength, he was not the opponent of the gray-clothed yin ghost, so he hurriedly returned to the yamen with the catcher, and if he wanted to take a break, he went to Guan Hao and asked him to make another move.

But when he returned to Yamen, he didn't have to rest for a while before he received another report.

Counting the two in the morning, this is already the third village to be slaughtered, and there are only a few villages near Shangjiang City!

With so many people dead, this matter cannot be hidden, and if it is not resolved as soon as possible, it may spread to the entire Shangjiang City area, causing panic and chaos!

Wang Bochao's expression was solemn, a hint of urgency flashed in his eyes, he suddenly stood up, hurriedly walked out of the yamen, and hurried towards the governor's mansion.

Governor's Mansion.

"Master Guan, the yamen received a report, and the gray-clothed yin ghost is suspected to have returned to the area of Shangjiang City, and it is even more crazy than before, wantonly slaughtering the people to absorb yin qi, and so far it has been found that hundreds of people in three villages have been killed!"

Wang Bochao looked anxious, and clenched his fists and said.

Guan Hao listened to Wang Bochao's report, frowned, and said in a murderous voice.

"In that case, I will lead my troops out of the city and search for the traces of that yin ghost with you, and strive to kill him before he can recreate and kill!"

The last time he led the troops to search back and forth in Shangjiang City for more than half a month, he didn't even see the shadow of the gray-clothed ghost, and finally he could only lead the troops back to Shangjiang City depressed.

This time, that gray-clothed yin ghost actually dared to show his head again, he must kill it!

Guan Hao put on his armor and rode to transfer troops, and Wang Bochao also rushed to the yamen, preparing to gather the arresters.

Although the fast capture is far less than the soldiers, it is also a force.

When he arrived at the Yamen, a catcher hurried up to meet him.

"Head catcher, after you left, we received another report!"

Wang Bochao's face changed slightly.

Could it be the fourth village?!

Slaughtering four villages in such a short period of time, this gray-clothed ghost is a little too rampant!

Wang Bochao's anger surged in his heart, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Where is it this time?!"

"Headcatcher, this time is a little special. Catcher said in a hurry.

"What's going on?"

"The villagers came to report the crime, there were evil ghosts attacking the village in broad daylight, and when he fled the village and rushed to Shangjiang City to report the crime, more than a dozen people had already died at the hands of the evil ghost!" replied in a hurry.

Wang Bochao was stunned.

"What! There are ghosts attacking the village during the day and slaughtering the villagers?"

"Yes!" nodded quickly.

"How can this be?!" Wang Bochao was very puzzled and said in surprise.

Yin ghosts usually lie dormant in the day and night, although it doesn't have to be like this.

But how can there be ghosts who kill people during the day?

Yin ghosts will gradually disappear due to the increase in killing, and the killers will scatter and flee during the day, and it is difficult for Yin ghosts to kill them all, and they are destined to lose a part of their yin energy.

Moreover, during the day, the yang energy is strong and the yin energy is thin, which is not conducive to the yin ghost absorbing the yin energy.

In addition, the key is to strike during the day, as it is easy for the fleeing people to rush to the nearby cities for help, causing powerful warriors to arrive and put themselves in danger.

In short, the yin ghost chooses to kill people during the day, and there is almost no benefit!

Wang Bochao frowned, feeling that this matter was quite strange.

This yin ghost that attacked the village during the day was really the gray-clothed yin ghost last time?

How did he suddenly become so unwise and so crazy?

Wang Bochao was full of doubts in his heart, but the situation was urgent, and he was not allowed to think about it.

At this moment, there are Yin ghosts attacking the village, and we must hurry up to help.

It may be a little late when they arrive, but it's one that can save one!

"Five people stay at the yamen, and the rest will come with me!" Wang Bochao looked anxious and waved his hand and shouted.

He led a group of catchers to the city gate agreed with Guan Hao.

Guan Hao was wearing armor and riding a horse, and there were more than 1,000 soldiers behind him.

There are thousands of guards in Shangjiang City, but it is enough to search for so many Yin Ghosts.

As for dealing with yin ghosts, ordinary people can't help much.

Wang Bochao hurried to the village with a group of catchers and told Guan Hao about the Yin Ghost attacking the village during the day.

Guan Hao was also puzzled, but he didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly led his soldiers to the village, and Wang Bochao followed behind with a catcher.

At the foot of the mountain, the mountain village should have been peaceful, and the cries of terror and misery resounded.

A ghost-like figure wantonly slaughtered the villagers, the power between the fists and feet was terrifying, but all the villagers who were hit by it were immediately pierced through the body, the head was burst open like a watermelon, and the brains and intestines were scattered all over the ground, and the scene was bloody and terrifying.

From time to time, there were even villagers who were torn in half by the ghost-like figure, their arms were stretched out, completely like bloodthirsty beasts.

The eyes of the villagers were full of fear, and their expressions were terrified to the extreme, and they let out a sharp and miserable scream, scrambling to be the first to rush and then fleeing outside the village.

But no matter how you escape, it's just a group of ordinary people after all.

The demon-like figure caught up with everyone and killed them all, without exerting even a little effort.

Looking back at the corpses and severed limbs along the way, the ghost-like figure gradually regained his senses.

A sinister smile appeared on Cao Shao's blood-covered face......
