Chapter 39: Chasing the Murderer

Following the guidance of Xiao Meihua, Wan Ning and Shopkeeper Kui quickly arrived at the scene.

Outside the door of the treasure vault of the Zhou Mansion, the cast iron and copper door was opened by Zhou Jiang's key, and the ingots were scattered all over the place.

And Zhou Jiang collapsed on the floor, holding the pale cyan pine snow incense stone in his hand, his limbs twitched, his face showed a look of horror, and there were words in his mouth: "There are ghosts, there are ghosts, there are ghosts..."

"Wan Daoyou, this is..."

Even the shopkeeper Kui didn't know what was going on for a while, and he asked Wan Ning a little nervously.

"Don't worry, this is part of my plan, Zhou Jiang was just overly frightened and fell into evil, nothing serious. There is a recipe for this, you take it to the pharmacy to grab the medicine, boil it into soup and drink it and it will get better. ”

Wan Ning took out a pre-prepared note from his clothes, handed it to the shopkeeper Kui, and instructed.

"There won't really be ghosts in the Mansion this week, right?"

After listening to Wan Ning's explanation, Shopkeeper Kui breathed a sigh of relief, but he saw that Zhou Jiang's expression was indeed frightened, and he still asked with one more words.

"Settle down, I'm pretending. ”

Xiao Meihua came out, holding a Rakshasa mask in her hand, put it on her face, and said to Shopkeeper Kui.

"I see," said the shopkeeper Kui, who suddenly realized.

"Shopkeeper Kui, don't talk much, I'm going to chase Yun Youzi, I have left a spiritual power mark on him, and it will dissipate if it is delayed any longer. ”

Wan Ning appeased the shopkeeper of Xia Kui, and then prepared to leave the Zhou Mansion. Previously, when he and Yun Youzi were dodging the zombie explosion under the table, they had physical contact, and it was at that time that Wan Ning took advantage of his unpreparedness and left a mark on his shoulder.

"It's hard work, it's good to do what you can to chase the murderer, safety is the most important, it's really not okay to wait for the boss to wake up and then make a decision. ”

He had watched the battle between the two at the door before, and although it seemed that Wan Ning had the upper hand, this strange Taoist trick was frequent, and the shopkeeper Kui was worried that he still had some killer weapon in his hand.

"I'll be careful. ”

Wan Ning nodded, took the little plum blossom, the wind under his feet, and soon left the Zhou Mansion.

Shopkeeper Kui looked down at Zhou Jiang, who was still twitching, with a look of disgust, he bowed a handful of cold water from the small pool beside him and sprinkled it on Zhou Jiang's face.

"Ah!!! ah, I was wrong!! you have a lot of them, don't kill me!!"

Stimulated by the outside, Zhou Jiang straightened up like a spring, and then immediately lay on the ground, his head banging on the ground.

"Bastard! Look up at me!"

The bear-like shopkeeper Kui, who couldn't stand Zhou Jiang's bearishness, stretched out his right hand, stuck Zhou Jiang's neck, and then raised his left palm, snapped twice, and slapped Zhou Jiang's face mercilessly.

"Don't !!... Yes... Uncle Kui...?"

Under the two big mouths of the shopkeeper Kui, Zhou Jiang finally regained his senses, his lips trembled, and he finally recognized the middle-aged man in front of him.

Then Zhou Jiang seemed to remember something, and he immediately looked down at the pine snow incense stones scattered on the ground, and the door of the treasure vault that he opened without authorization, and immediately understood the situation. Zhou Jiang sighed dejectedly and fell to the ground, he knew that everything was over.

"I was scared like this by a fake ghost, so I didn't hurry up and get up and confess to your father. ”

Shopkeeper Kui stood up, kicked Zhou Jiang's buttocks, and said with hatred. The shopkeeper Kui is unmarried and unmarried, has no children under his knees, and brought Zhou Jiang up with his own hands, how can he not have any feelings for Zhou Jiang.

"Is it fake?"

Zhou Jiang was stunned and asked subconsciously.

"Otherwise, that's Wan Daoyou's spiritual art, I didn't expect it to really scare you. ”

In line with the principle of keeping things secret for Wanning, the shopkeeper Kui did not reveal the existence of Xiao Meihua, but changed his name to Lingshu.

"I see, it scared me, I thought that Liuli came to me in order to take revenge on me, turning into a ghost. ”

Hearing Kui's shopkeeper's words, Zhou Jiang patted his chest, and his tense heartbeat finally eased.

"What did you say?

However, Shopkeeper Kui's pupils constricted, and he stopped abruptly, turned around and glared at Zhou Jiang, as if he had said something taboo from his mouth.

At the same time, in the Chang'an Mansion, a faint wisp of black smoke came out of Zhou's house and flew towards the mountains and fields on the outskirts, and under the black smoke, a young man in white followed closely.

The boy opened his palm, and the red flame fluttered in the wind, and in the black smoke, a small red light could be faintly seen intermingling with it.

"I don't feel good, that wanderer seems to have the intention of luring you to his lair. ”

Xiao Meihua sat in the Wanning Shenhai, looking at the black smoke incarnated by Yun Youzi, his expression was a little solemn.

There were a few times when they were about to catch up with Yun Youzi's pace, and the opposite side naturally hurried to speed up, but when he saw that he was too far away from Wan Ning, he slowed down, as if he had the intention of waiting for Wan Ning.

"Then what's the way, since you want the pine snow incense stone in Boss Zhou's hand, at least you have to catch Yun Youzi to have an explanation. ”

Wan Ning said helplessly. After all, the most important thing now is to take the pine snow incense stone from Zhou Tai's hand, although it seems that he has a good relationship with Zhou Tai and is called a brother, but a pine snow incense stone has a price in Chang'an Mansion, and he will not think that Zhou Tai will give away the treasure.

And he naturally will not use violent methods to forcibly seize it, otherwise Yun Youzi, who was abducted and deceived by the pit, will become a raccoon dog, so the most effective way at present is to seize Yun Youzi, and then use it as a bargaining chip to discuss with Zhou Tai about the matter of Songxue Xiangshi.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Wanning followed the ethereal black smoke, long since leaving the crowded bustling street to a slightly desolate suburb. Under the gaze of one man and one spirit, the black smoke finally flew into a secluded and hidden cave.

"The matter has come to this point, Yun Youzi's intention has been obvious, he is to seduce you in and kill you, or we will turn back immediately and contact Zhou Tai to discuss this matter. ”

Wan Ning stopped at the entrance of the cave, and the little plum blossom also appeared, and persuaded Wan Ning.

"I must take this man, if I can't give a definite explanation to the bandits in the mountains, they will always be there to cause trouble for the people. ”

Wan Ning shook his head and said.

"This kind of thing is beyond your control, the most correct thing to do is to report to the sect and let those old men of the Aoki Sect find a way to solve it. ”

Xiao Meihua still did not give up persuading Wanning, Jiao Sheng said.

"The sect's actions are too loud, they have been entrenched in the mountains for a long time, and they are more familiar with the terrain, and by the time the spiritual cultivation arrives, they have already absconded. And judging from my experience with them, these Corpse Yin Sects are all devouring people, and they will definitely slaughter innocent people on the way back to Qi Kingdom. ”

The young man's eyes were slightly cold, and he said softly but resolutely.

"Isn't it good for you to be selfish in your heart, you have to pretend to be someone else. I don't care!

Xiao Meihua saw that Wanning oil and salt did not enter, so she had to raise her hand, sit on the big stone next to her and say angrily.

"It's okay, in fact, don't worry too much, this Yun Youzi shouldn't be able to help me, haven't I already fought with him before. ”

Wan Ning comforted the little plum blossom beside him, adjusted his breathing, and then walked towards the bottomless cave. Xiao Meihua couldn't help it, gritted her silver teeth, stomped her feet, and followed Wanning in.

"I didn't expect you to dare to come here, I thought that if I gave up, I would let you live. ”

Some cramped caves are filled with torches, and in the center of the field, eight chains pull a delicate coffin, and a gloomy circle is carved underneath. This made Wan Ning instantly think of the bandits' lair on the mountain, where the furnishings and altar were almost the same as those on Yun Youzi's side.
