The Tanglin County Ya is dilapidated as always, and now there are a few more traces of decadent artistic conception, the two standing class soaps at the door of the county government are listlessly holding water and fire sticks, standing loosely on the edge of the county ya, as if the tendons on the body have been pulled out, without a trace of spirit.

This is not to blame them, just this morning, the third murder happened, the death was also a pregnant woman, the premature baby in the body was also stripped out, three murders, four lives, three babies, like a heavy stone, pressed on everyone's hearts, the county order Li Yuannian's hair is becoming thinner, there are no more than a few, half of the fast catchers in the yamen were beaten, and the other half were trembling, for fear that it would be their turn next.

Tie Jun was not beaten, he was just a rookie who had just entered the industry, no one would think that he could do anything in this matter, what should he do, but the atmosphere in the yazhong also affected him.

Just today, after more than ten days of investigation, there is finally a clue, Zhang Wulang, a merchant who sells goods along the streets, once saw a black-clothed Taoist priest appear at the door of the third victim's house, but it disappeared in a blink of an eye, Tanglin County is not big, the population is not large, everyone is an acquaintance, look up and don't see what you look down, so the appearance of a stranger is very eye-catching, Zhang Wulang is very sure that this black-clothed Taoist is not from Tanglin County, but at that time he only saw a glance, the Taoist disappeared, at first I thought I was dazzled, Therefore, he didn't see the clear appearance of this black-clothed Taoist clearly, but he remembered that there was a long banner hanging on his body, and he thought it was a traveling Taoist priest who helped people tell fortunes.

The black-clothed Youfang Daoist, with such a clue, has a certain goal, and the catchers once again investigated the black-clothed Youfang Taoist, and finally got another news.

Old man Li, the gatekeeper of Yizhuang outside the city, and Song Yi, a traveling merchant, had seen a black-clothed Taoist priest on a mass grave in the west of the city, which also disappeared in a flash, and there was also a long banner behind him, but Old Man Li saw it five days ago, and Song Yi saw it one day.

As a result, the mass grave in the west of the city and the black-clothed Taoist priest became the only clue in their hands.

※※※

The mass grave in the west of Dongling County has a history of hundreds of years, no one knows how many people have been buried there, and no one knows the origin of it.

Now Tie Jun had no choice but to mix in a group of fast catchers, and went to the mass grave.

The mass grave is about ten miles away from the county seat of Dongling, bypassing a small river, biasing to the west of the official road, and seeing an old locust tree in the distance, it is almost to the place.

This old locust tree is also old, the old man in Tanglin County said that this old locust tree is very supernatural, the lush branches and leaves are entangled with lonely souls and wild ghosts, it is precisely because of those lonely souls and wild ghosts that he is entangled in mass graves, Donglin County can be safe, therefore, every July 14th when the ghost door is opened, the old people of Tanglin County will come here to burn incense, after so many years of edification, this old locust tree that is about five adults can hug each other has been blackened by incense ash on this side of Tanglin City, In front of the tree there is also a small incense table with some fruits on it.

When a group of catchers approached the old locust tree, a cold wind blew from the mass grave behind the locust tree, and everyone shivered, although it was now noon, the sun was above their heads, but by this yin wind, everyone subconsciously gathered their clothes, Tie Jun was no exception, a trace of heat rose from his dantian, swimming all over the body, but still could not remove the chill on the body, when they walked past the old locust tree, the temperature around them suddenly cooled down, It was several degrees lower than before.

"Everyone be careful, we have already entered the range of the mass grave, the yin qi here is relatively heavy, if you can't resist it, call a few mouthfuls of ginger soup!" Redon's voice rang in his ears.

Before coming, Lei Dong asked the county government to boil a large pot of ginger soup in the kitchen, saying that it was used to ward off the cold.

After drinking a few sips of ginger soup, Tie Jun felt that this was more effective than that trace of less yang internal qi, and there was a trace of warmth on his body.

At this time, he didn't know what was going on, he suddenly felt that someone was talking by the old locust tree not far away, and subconsciously turned his head to look, but he couldn't see anything, there was no one under the old locust tree, and he couldn't see a ghost.

"Junzi, what's wrong, hurry up and keep up!"

Just when he stopped, he fell behind, and Wang Laoqi beside him pulled him and pulled him into the team again, "Junzi, today Qin Tou took the two of us into a group, you kid have to remember, no matter what happens, don't mess up, understand?" Everything is up to Qin Tou'er, do you know the way? ”

"Yes, yes, I know!" Tie Jun nodded, pulled his legs and followed the team, but another trace of the sound that seemed to be someone whispering came from the old locust tree, he felt a chill in his heart, and shivered, but he was not afraid to stay here anymore, so he walked a few steps and followed behind Wang Laoqi.

The scope of the mass grave is huge, and no one knows how many people have been buried here in the past few hundred years, so the yin qi is extremely heavy, except for a few annoying crows in the sky, even the city fox society rats are reluctant to approach this ghost place.

When he arrived at the edge of the mass grave, Lei Dong began to assign tasks, and every three groups of three people searched here separately to see if they could find the black-clothed Taoist priest, but everyone obviously didn't have much hope for this, and even some resistance, Tie Jun also knew that everyone had the idea of going back to the business as soon as possible, and the reason why they came here today was also to have an explanation in front of the boss in the imperial court, telling them that we had come here to search, but we couldn't find anything, anyway, the master of the six doors was about to arrive, will take over this case tomorrow at the latest, and they will be relieved, although they are still called to life, but they no longer need to be in charge, at most they are just running errands, and the masters of the six doors have always been above the top, I'm afraid they can't even look down on them, so it will be easy.

The group was assigned before departure, and Tie Jun unexpectedly divided into a group with Lao Qin Tou and Wang Laoqi, and began to go to the east of the mass grave.

Lao Qin Tou was holding an iron ruler in his hand, Wang Lao Qiqing took out his waist knife, and Tie Jun was also holding a knife in his hand, and the three of them walked forward cautiously as if they were in chaos.

"Junzi, take it easy, don't be nervous, it's okay, let's just come here today, so that we can give an explanation to the above, if it is really a case done by evil cultivators, even if it is to fill in the lives of our people, it is useless, but these monks also look down on us, as long as we don't meet them, they won't touch us."

"Do you know anything about cult cultivators?"

"Didn't the Iron Head tell you? These monks have their own rules, and even if they are evil cultivators, they will not attack ordinary people for no reason, unless you really provoke him. ”

"For what?" Tie Jun was puzzled.

"Because of what kind of karma, heavenly calamity, or something like that, the more innocent people they kill, the greater the trouble they will have when they should be calamated in the future, so whether it is right or evil, there is a sense of proportion."

"Measure, this guy takes the Zihe car to cultivate, and he still has a sense of proportion?"

"It's because this kind of thing he does is too evil, so he will pay more attention to this aspect of things." Old Qin Tou smiled bitterly, "Don't ask me what I'm worried about, these are all things I heard from those masters of the Six Doors back then, as for whether it's true or not, to be honest, I've lived so big, and I really haven't seen a real monk." Old Qin Tou said self-deprecatingly.

The three of them inspected this mass grave, except for the gusts of wind and a few old crows, they really didn't find anything, just as they were about to call it a day and go back, not far away, suddenly there was a miserable scream.

"Oh no, it's Huzi, something happened!"

As soon as they heard the screams, the faces of the three of them changed at the same time, and they all subconsciously ran towards the screaming place, but after just running a few steps, they all stopped and looked at each other.

They were all scared, as I said just now, if they really ran into the evil cultivators, even if they filled in all their people, it would not be enough, now there are only three of them, and they are not sent to death when they run over, no one is a fool, and they don't want to die.

Therefore, after stopping, as soon as Lao Qin turned around, he ran away, and when he left, he didn't forget to pull Tie Jun, and shouted in a low voice, "Run, otherwise it will be too late." ”

Tie Jun was originally a little undecided, but he was dragged by Lao Qin's head, and he subconsciously ran away, of course, this was just his own psychological words to comfort himself, and he was also afraid.

The three of them fled all the way, and just about a hundred paces away, they ran head-on into Lei Dong and the others who heard the screams and rushed here.

"Old Qin, what's going on?"

"Out, something's wrong!" When Lao Qin saw Lei Dong, he didn't stop, Tie Jun followed him, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was, there was nothing originally, but he ran behind people in a little ignorance.

But after running a few steps, he clearly felt a feeling of fear rising from the bottom of his heart, this terrifying feeling devoured his heart, making him run faster and faster, and the expression on his face became more and more frightened, so after encountering Lei Dong, he also did not stop.

Instead, he ran forward lifelessly, Lei Dong was furious, and stretched out his hand to pull Lao Qintou, but Lao Qintou's speed was too fast, he didn't hold it, but was deflected by the force of Lao Qintou's run, and it just hit Tie Jun's body.

Lei Dong is a strong guy, and Tie Jun, just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man, the body still looks a little thin, and his own speed is fast, without preparation, he was hit by Lei Dong like this, and was knocked out of the Lu obliquely, after rushing out of the Lu for two steps, his feet were tripped by a protruding stone on the ground, and the whole person rushed forward, this piece of ground was a little inclined to the ground, Tie Jun was tripped by this collision, his body completely lost his balance, and fell on the ground, Rolling forward along the slope, rolling straight for a distance of about 20 zhang, he hit the old locust tree head-on, and his head smashed on the trunk of the tree, and he lost consciousness with a bang.

Over there, Lei Dong not only did not catch Lao Qin's head, but also hit Tie Jun, seeing him hit the old locust tree headlong, his heart couldn't help but tighten, Tie Qian is his master, from the moment he entered the yamen, he followed Tie Qian behind him, if Tie Jun really has something long and two short, he doesn't seem to be Tie Jun's confession, just now I saw that Tie Jun hit not lightly, he didn't care about the scream, he had to go to see if Tie Jun was really hurt, but, before he lifted his steps to check, A black cloud flew from the depths of the mass grave.

"Quack quack, who should I have such the audacity to dare to come to this seat for trouble, it turns out that it is you useless things!"

There was a strange laugh from the black clouds, and in an instant, he turned into a black-clothed Taoist and landed in front of Lei Dong and the other two catchers.

"Who are you?" Although Lei Dong was conceited, when he saw the other party's appearance, he couldn't help but "chuckle" in his heart, and secretly screamed "it's broken".

It's really bad, a black cloud, flying over, this is not at all the level that a county like them can deal with, no one expected that it was just a job to come out on an errand, but he actually met the main master, facing this monk who is obviously a cultivated monk, by no means an ordinary person, at least this kind of flying extinction ability is not something they can do.

Either this Taoist priest has reached the innate secret realm, or he has a powerful magic weapon on his body, and no matter which of the two possibilities is, they are not able to resist it.

"You don't have to know who Dao Ye is, as long as you know Lu Dao, you disturb Dao Master's cultivation, it will be a big sin!" The Taoist priest shouted viciously, flicking his sleeves, and saw two clouds of black gas flying towards them.

Before the black clothes could face each other, the three of them smelled a fishy smell coming to their nostrils, and they almost fainted.

"It's not good, let's go, this black gas is poisonous!" Lei Dong can be a catcher, naturally he has two brushes, and when he senses that something is wrong, he immediately uses his true qi to fight against this stench, and he pulls a catcher with one hand and retreats backwards.

"If you catch a little fast, can you escape from the palm of the Taoist master?" The Taoist priest laughed strangely, and suddenly a black banner flew up, after this big banner flew out, it actually rose in the wind, and rose to the size of three zhang, and the black gas on it surged, and the strong smell of blood could not be covered up no matter what, poor Lei Dong just felt that the fishy smell rushed straight to his mind, and the body that rushed backwards rushed forward and fell to the ground.

"Useless stuff!" Seeing this result, this Taoist priest couldn't help but be a little excited, at first he thought that it was the people from the six doors who checked it, but who knew that Lu Dao turned out to be a group of ordinary catchers, "Damn it, since you disturbed the Daoist Yaxing, let me die!" ”

The black banner in the sky suddenly covered Lei Dong and the others.

If it was really covered by this black flag, then Lei Dong and the others would be given ten lives.

At the moment of the last moment, a sharp rebuke suddenly came from Far EasTone Telecommunications, "Demon Dao, Hugh is rampant!" ”

Then he saw a white light flying from afar, and in a flash, it hit the black banner that was about to fall.

Burst!!!

The sharp white light actually pierced through the black banner directly.

"Flying Sword!"

The black-clothed Taoist priest was hit hard, his face began to turn gray, and with a move of his hand, the penetrated black banner turned into a cloud of black mist and wrapped him, and flew quickly into the distance.

"Hmph, guts bandits!"

As the person arrived, the white light in the sky flashed, turned into a long sword, and fell into the backpack of the person who came.

This person is about six feet tall, full of beard, tiger eyes and lion nose, wearing a blue-gray cloth robe, which looks a little dilapidated, and a yellow-skinned gourd hangs on his waist.

The light of the long sword in the backpack converged, and it was hidden in the bag, revealing only one sword hilt, and the black sword spike fluttered in the wind.

Seeing that the black-clothed Taoist priest turned into a cloud of black smoke and fled, he had no intention of pursuing, but took out a black pill and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, untied the gourd on his waist, poured a sip of wine into his mouth, gargled a few times, and sprayed it fiercely at Lei Dong and others.

Burst!!

The wine and medicine turned into a green mist, which fell on the faces of Lei Dong and the two catchers.

Just now, these people were polluted by the black banner of the black-clothed Taoist, which was refined by the black-clothed Taoist priest who collected many filthy things between heaven and earth, and was extremely poisonous, and ordinary people could be unconscious as long as they inhaled it, and if they were not treated in time, they would have to worry about their lives.

The mist sprayed on their faces, and after a while, their bodies suddenly trembled, and their faces showed a look of pain, and then a series of "puff puff" farts were heard

sounds, a foul stench came from their bodies.

The man with the sword on his back frowned, took a few steps back slightly, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw Tie Jun who was still fainting under the big locust tree.

"How can there be another one?" He was a little surprised, and when he walked under the locust tree, he seemed to feel something, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and the long sword behind his back made a shining sword sound.

I saw a flash of sword light, and the big locust tree that I didn't know how long the Dao had existed was actually cut off under his sword light.

"Hmph, the yin qi gathers to condense the spirit, and it almost makes you the climate!"

Withdrawing the sword again, the man sneered, and without looking at the locust tree, he picked up the iron jun, and at the same time, the unconscious Lei Dong and the others also let out a thin moan and woke up.
