It turned out that just yesterday, two villagers in the village went to the town to run errands, and before returning home, they had a slight quarrel with a strange man while eating and drinking in a small restaurant. At the time, the two villagers didn't take the matter too seriously, but when they were about to settle the bill, they found that all the money bags on their bodies were gone.

In desperation, the two persuaded the shopkeeper to give him a day or two of leniency, and then came back to pay the bill after returning to the village to get the money.

I originally thought that I would go to settle the bill early this morning, but I didn't expect that all the money and valuables in the entire village would disappear overnight.

You must know that the places where these villagers store their silver and valuables are really varied, some hide gold and silver in flour jars, some stuff them in wardrobes, some hide them on the beams, some bury them under the floor tiles, and even some people's private money hidden in secret places has been stolen completely.

However, no one in the village noticed anything unusual last night. Even the dogs in the village didn't bark much last night.

After carefully asking about the man's appearance and appearance, when the head catcher was feeling at a loss, Qu Wuming, who had been listening quietly next to him, suddenly spoke, saying that the man's appearance and behavior seemed to match the characteristics of a certain person - that was Xing Xin, who was known as the "ghost thief".

There is no bottom line of principles for Xing Xin's theft, sometimes it is because of need, and sometimes it depends on the mood. It is rumored that this Xing Xin once stole all the underwear of everyone in the palace of a small country because of a bet with others, and piled them up in the downtown area, so he was chased and killed by the sect to which the small country belonged for half a year.

Xing Xin was later annoyed by the hunting, and quietly sneaked back to the small country, killing ten random people in the capital every day, and finally killing people in panic, and the sect had no choice but to withdraw the pursuit of him.

Since then, Xing Xin's name has almost spread all over the Eastern Continent, but all the sects and forces with family backgrounds are respectful of him, even if he is stolen, he will not dare to force him too hard, Xing Xin has become more and more arrogant, until he provoked two difficult loose cultivators, almost caught and killed him, Xing Xin was again low-key and restrained a lot.

It's just that after pointing out that the person who stole might be Xing Xin, the head catcher was even more helpless - without him, that Xing Xin was already cultivating in the god transformation stage at that time, and he caught fast in a small qi refining period, even if he found Xing Xin, there was no way to bring him to justice, let alone recover the losses of the villagers.

Qu Wuming already despised Xing Xin's kind of person, especially as a cultivator who had lived for thousands of years, and he actually attacked ordinary people in a village indiscriminately, which made Qu Wuming angry for a long time, and seeing that the little catcher was at a loss, he took the initiative to take on the task of arresting Xing Xin.

And that Xing Xin didn't actually run away at this time, and she didn't even have the intention of escaping at all.

He had come here to steal the treasures of a monk who was living in seclusion in the town.

Originally, he was walking around the neighborhood after some disguise, but he didn't expect to have a quarrel with the two villagers, for fear of alarming the cultivators living in the small courtyard opposite the restaurant, he didn't dare to hurt people in public, but stole the money bags of the two as punishment, and then followed the two back to Huajia Village, and stole all the gold and silver money in the entire village.

In the past, when he needed to use gold and silver, he had done such a thing a lot, and every time he cast a spell and stole it, he would almost take away all the gold, silver and jewelry of every household, leaving nothing left.

As for how the latter people should live, that was not something he needed to think about.

Although the cultivation of the head catcher is not high, he is very experienced, and in just half a day, he took Qu Wuming to find Xing Xin's traces.

Xing Xin did not care about the life and death of ordinary people in this village, and had already returned to the town at this time, continuing to find out how to find out the daily activities of the reclusive cultivator.

When Qu Wuming appeared in front of him, he was crouching at a market stall, pretending to buy something. And the cultivator he was staring at was buying meat in front of the meat stall more than ten zhang away.

Many cultivators who choose to live in seclusion among ordinary people will take away all their breath and live like an ordinary person - many cultivators regard this practice as a kind of cultivation, a process of refining the mind, and many cultivators who have been refining from the peak of the Yuan Infant Stage will have such a cultivation process, rather than blindly retreating and cultivating in isolation from the world.

Qu Wuming didn't know that person existed, and when he came straight to Xing Xin's side, he also squatted down casually, pretending to pick the radish on the stall, but grabbed Xing Xin's wrist.

Xing Xin was startled, his wrist shook and wanted to break free, who expected Qu Wuming's hand to clench him tightly like pliers, not only that, Qu Wuming's palm seemed to hold a forbidden talisman, which was already firmly attached to his wrist at this time, even if he wanted to cast a spell, he couldn't do it.

Xing Xin turned her head to look and found that she was holding herself a burly man with a square face and a beard, who had never seen it before, because she was worried about alarming her target, she frowned and whispered, "Who are you?" What do you want to do? ”

Qu Wuming grinned, and said: "You don't care who I am, hand over the gold and silver of the villagers of Huajia Village, and I will let you go, if you want to resist, don't look at the crowd at this time, I still have dozens of ways to kill you!" ”

When Xing Xin heard this, her brows were even more twisted, and she shook her head and replied: "You have less blood and spew, what kind of Huajia Village?" It has nothing to do with me. ”

"So, do you want to toast and not eat and drink? Do you have the courage to admit it? Qu Wuming snorted coldly, "I dare to come to the door to arrest you, you should know that my cultivation is much higher than you, if you want to die, I don't mind finding a place to fulfill you ugly thief for a while." As he spoke, Qu Wuming was about to pull Xing Xin to stand up.

Xing Xin was in a hurry, worried that if she made a big fuss at this time, she hurriedly said, "Slow! I admit that I did it, I admit it, I admit it. I'll pay it back, okay? ”

As he spoke, Xing Xin leaned forward with the hand he was wearing a storage ring, and motioned for Qu Wuming to stretch out his storage ring, Qu Wuming saw that he was so single, but thinking of his reputation in the past, he hesitated for a moment, and finally took an empty storage ring and put it on the right.

The faces of the two storage rings were separated at the touch of a button, but there was already a small pile of gold and silver jewelry in the nameless empty storage ring.

Qu Wuming checked it slightly, and felt that it was not much different from the amount of money lost described by the villagers, so he let go of Xing Xin with a cold snort, and before turning to leave, he didn't forget to say a cruel word, warning Xing Xin not to attack ordinary people again, otherwise he would not be spared next time.

Xing Xin didn't answer, just glared at Qu Wuming fiercely, turned around and squeezed into the crowd, and disappeared in a flash.

Half a day later, Qu Wuming and the catcher returned to Huajia Village and returned the lost silver money to the villagers.

Qu Wuming couldn't entangle everyone's enthusiasm, and finally had to cast a spell to bind the villagers in place for a while, and when the villagers came to their senses, the village had long since lost Qu Wuming and the figure of the head catcher......

It can be regarded as a good thing, Qu Wuming is naturally in a good mood, and he took the head catcher back to the best restaurant in the town for a meal of wine and food, and stayed in the town that night, preparing to continue the journey the next day.

But what I didn't expect was that early the next morning, before Qu Wuming could check out and leave, the head catcher had already hurried over and told Qu Wuming an angry news - more than 100 people in Huajia Village died violently overnight last night, and the whole village, chickens and dogs were not left!

Everyone's body has no scars, but the death is extremely miserable, whether it is adults or children, before death, it is as if they have seen something extremely terrifying, one by one their faces are hideous and distorted, which makes people daunting.

"Okay, you Xing Xin!" Qu Wuming saw the tragic situation of the villagers in Huajia Village, and he couldn't guess who did the good deeds! Remembering that the day before, the villagers were still around him, with a smile on his face and full of joy, at this time, he had turned into a wronged soul, and he had long hated the root of his teeth in his heart, and he couldn't wait to immediately arrest that Xing Xin and correct the Fa on the spot!

However, when he and the head catcher returned to the town again, they could not find Xing Xin's trace, and when the two were exploring the street, they bumped into a figure that suddenly rose into the sky from an ordinary courtyard - it was an angry cultivator in the refining period, and the powerful power of divine consciousness had swept through the surrounding space of nearly a hundred zhang in an instant, and after not finding the treasure he had lost, he suddenly turned into a ray of light and chased it in a certain direction......

Since that day, Qu Wuming has started a journey of chasing Xing Xin for more than ten years.

That Xing Xin may know that she has too many enemies, her reputation is too poor, and her whereabouts are erratic, so it takes a lot of effort to let an "old Jianghu" like Qu Wuming chase after him.

For more than ten years, Qu Wuming followed in Xing Xin's footsteps and traveled almost a quarter of the Eastern Regions Continent, during which he really blocked Xing Xin several times.

However, although Xing Xin's cultivation is slightly inferior to Qu Wuming, the means to save his life are endless, and he has escaped from Qu Wuming's hands several times.

Later, Xing Xin also knew that it was Qu Wuming, known as a ranger, who was chasing and killing him, and he hated Qu Wuming so much that his teeth itched, but Qu Wuming was alone, even if he wanted to take revenge on Qu Wuming, there was nothing he could do.

In the end, as a last resort, Xing Xin actually defected to the Yin-Yang Ghost Sect and became an elder there, and rarely left the sect since then, completely breaking Qu Wuming's mind to continue chasing and killing, and the entanglement between the two finally came to an end......

————

Qu Wuming didn't expect that this time the Yin Yang Ghost Sect actually sent Xing Xin to the underworld realm, and coincidentally appeared in front of him again, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart, seeing that Xing Xin had turned into a ray of light and came straight to his direction, his mind was already in a flash, and he already had an idea......
