Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Soldiers Are Divided into Three Paths
Lu Da did not retreat but advanced, the palm holding the handle of the knife glowed with a glowing white light, and the broken handle grew a long knife again.
The difference is that this time the long knife is made by the convergence of internal forces.
Rotating the hilt, it shook slightly, and the knife qi stirred up a large hole in his chest.
The woman fell to the ground with a bang, the red light in her eyes faded, and she finally regained her senses, but she had no time to speak, her mouth opened, and her life was completely cut off.
"Uncle Lu is mighty!" The captain of the guard rushed over with a smile on his face.
"If you summon a subpoena, you must find out the reason." Lu Da felt that it was an eyesore and pushed him away.
Then, he glanced at the guy who was drawing a map on the ground, and didn't say anything.
The captain of the guard kicked the coward in understanding, "Didn't you hear Uncle Lu's words?" Why don't you go find a servant?! ”
"Yes, yes, yes." The guards on the ground crawled up and walked in a very awkward manner, dragging mud and water.
"Then ...... next" The captain of the guard bent over as if he were following orders.
"What do you need me to teach?" Lu Da raised his hand and gave him a head to him.
Boom!
The captain of the guard was in pain, screamed "oops", and hurriedly covered the top of his head, but did not retreat half a step.
But he also straightened up and began to direct the scene, evacuating the crowd, in fact, there was no need to evacuate, everyone was so frightened that they walked away, leaving only Ming Chen and Yu Chuxue.
Just when the guards were about to drive them away, Lu Da was also a little embarrassed, and as soon as he finished speaking, he wanted to interfere in other people's case processes, but there was no way.
Just wanted to speak, but found that Ming Chen signaled him with his eyes not to.
Then, before the guards could speak, they turned and left.
Seven turns and eight turns came to Wang Ergou's house, and after a while, Lu Da also followed.
"Chen Zhuangshi, why are you leaving?"
Ming Chen calmly analyzed, "There is no value in staying, you can disperse the demonic qi with one sword, and you can't find anything, but this is not important, the important thing is how to curb the deterioration of the situation, and find out the real culprit as soon as possible." ”
"I have a concern." Lu Da frowned, looking full of gloom.
"You're right to be worried, we don't have much time left." Ming Chen's jaw was bowed.
As soon as he heard this, Lu Da was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and then thought of something.
"Chen Zhuangshi, isn't your magic weapon able to eliminate demonic energy? Help the people of Wangcheng. ”
With a bang, he knelt straight in front of Ming Chen.
Ming Chen was also shocked by his actions, hurriedly held him up, and said solemnly: "I know, you have long discovered the abnormality of the people of Wangcheng, and the water source is indeed mixed with demonic energy, so they can't control their emotions; I can do it, but I'm afraid that the blatant action will make the murderer behind the scenes jump over the wall, and at that time, the whole process will be ......."
didn't finish speaking, but Lu Da took it sluggishly, "Will they all become monsters like that just now?" ”
After swallowing his saliva, Lu Da's face became very pale, as if the sky was about to fall, and finally saw Ming Chen and the others, as if they were grasping a life-saving straw, they were full of hope.
"You will be able to save the people of Wangcheng, right?"
After glancing at Senior Sister Yu, Ming Chen raised his head, looked at the sky, and nodded heavily, "We must be able to." ”
After receiving the guarantee, Lu Da's pale face had a trace of blood.
"But we're running out of time to find out why the mutation is induced, and how to find the murderer, and how to clear the influence of demonic energy on the people." Ming Chen's tone involuntarily quickened a little.
"What do you need me to do and speak as soon as possible." Lu Da directly stated his attitude.
Seeing that Senior Sister Yu also nodded slightly, Ming Chen said, "Then let me briefly talk about my arrangements." ”
"Time is limited, and the troops are divided into three ways."
"Brother Lu, you try to find out the specific cause of the mutation, and then help me test whether the poison removal pill is helpful for removing demonic energy."
He took out a porcelain vase and placed it in his hand.
"We also need a quiet place, preferably in the middle of the lookout."
"No problem, wrap it up on me." Lu Da solemnly took the poison pill and slapped his chest thumping.
He took out the Sanpin Qingshen Pill again, handed it to Yu Chuxue and said, "Senior Sister Yu, here are ten Sanpin Qingshen Pills, which can stabilize their emotions; In the dead of night, we put ourselves in densely populated wells for at least three days, and these three days are the last time left for us. ”
"Hmm."
"And I'm in charge of investigating the case."
After a simple arrangement, they went to a quiet courtyard in the city under the leadership of Lu Da.
As Lu Da, it is very simple to find a courtyard, and it hardly takes much time.
It's just that along the way, there were a lot of disputes, all of which quietly subsided with the arrival of Lu Da.
On the way, Ming Chen thought a lot.
What is the purpose of the other party?
What is the connection between demonic energy and the disappearance of people?
Is it a demon cultivator or a monster?
If it's a monster and eats people and leaves, how does it hide in Wangcheng?
If it was a demon cultivator, how could there be such a huge demonic aura, and what was the purpose of his doing this?
The three of them came to a courtyard, which was very spacious and had many rooms, and no one disturbed them.
After Lu Da made the arrangement, he went to the government office in a hurry, and he said that there were some prisoners there, and he could get the answers he wanted through them.
Senior Sister Yu thought for a while and said, "I once heard Master say that a kind of spiritual liquid is not an elixir, but it can be used to decompose and assimilate demonic qi with the characteristics of spiritual liquid, and even tenacious demonic qi can be suppressed. ”
Ming Chen asked in surprise, "Really?" Can it be made? ”
"I'm sure to make it, although the quality of my production is not enough to deal with the strong demonic energy, but it is still possible to deal with the demonic energy of the people of Wangcheng, it's just ......"
Seeing that she wanted to speak and stopped, Ming Chen asked, "Is there any difficulty?" ”
"Hmm." Yu Chuxue nodded and said, "Even if it has an effect, with my mana, it will be a drop in the bucket, so I need a lot of aura." ”
He pondered for a moment, as if he had thought of something, "By the way, I can also decompose the aura in the elixir, but the quality of the spell pill is too high, and I can only decompose the second-grade elixir at most." ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed, thinking that he had thought of a good way.
But Ming Chen laughed, took off the small gourd hanging around his neck, turned it into a normal size in his hand, pulled out the gourd stopper, and a big wooden box appeared at the feet of the two.
"See what this is?"
Yu Chuxue opened it and looked at it, and immediately became excited.
"Second Grade Rejuvenation Pill? So much!!! ”
Ming Chen didn't expect that this box of Rejuvenation Pill would actually come in handy, "Senior Sister Yu, you can first try if you can make the spiritual liquid, and then give it to Lu Da and let him try if it has any effect." ”
"Well, I can help too." Yu Chuxue smiled very happily.
Holding the big box and running to the room, Ming Chen shook his head.
But when he turned around, his face recovered.
Now, the most important thing is to investigate the case.
Only by finding out what the other party is doing, or finding the murderer behind the scenes, can Wangcheng be truly rescued.
What exactly is the relationship between the missing person and the demon?
I don't have a clue at all.
But he already has three directions.
The missing city lord's palace guard, the cause of Wang Ergou's death, and Dr. Wen, who behaved abnormally.
A rough timeline has been put together.
Wang Ergou's death, the disappearance of the city lord's palace guards, the disappearance case, Zhao Long disappeared, the Wangcheng officials intervened, Xu Xia drowned in the well, the Wangcheng officials left, and Ming Chen arrived.
Therefore, Wang Ergou has become the key to the whole case, which is closely related to the disappearance of the population and the demonic energy in the water source.
Does Dr. Wen, who also lives in Dongcheng and behaves abnormally, know anything?
After clarifying his thoughts, Ming Chen set off to the pharmacy where Dr. Wen was.
He walked on the street alone in a low-key manner, but there were still people who came up to find fault.
"Boy, borrow some silver taels to spend flowers."
The person who spoke was a tall man with bare arms, and he still had a little flesh on his body, except that he was a little taller, he was not burly, so he stopped in front of Ming Chen, revealing a fierce look.
It's really direct, there is no reason, so I can't say that I am short of money.
Ming Chen looked at him expressionlessly.
"Dumb?" After the tall man shouted, two people walked out behind him one after another.
It's not easy to mess with them.
The two of them came up and grabbed Ming Chen one left and one right, and he didn't resist, just looked at the tall man expressionlessly.
This look made the tall man a little hairy, and then a wave of anger rose from the bottom of his heart, and he yelled: "Beat Lao Tzu to death!" ”
I still felt that the momentum was a little insufficient, so I rushed up and gave Ming Chen a punch.
"Let you see!"
Ming Chen relaxed his body, otherwise their fists would have suffered.
The raindrop-like fist landed on Ming Chen, and he swayed in the wind like a rag, and the expression on his face remained unchanged except for his body reacting.
Until the three of them were tired, Ming Chen still looked at the tall man with that expression.
He was observing the red light in the other person's eyes, there was no red light at first, but as his anger continued to rise, there was a faint flash of red light.
When his hand touched Ming Chen, the Void Mirror operated on its own, and the demonic qi was sucked into the Void Mirror along the opponent's palm.
But the tall man did not come to his senses, and was still in anger.
Then, another red light disappeared from his eyes.
This discovery made Ming Chen wonder if his Void Mirror could really save the people of Wangcheng?
The three were tired and out of breath.
The tall man held his knees and gasped for breath, but raised his head to meet Ming Chen's indifferent expression.
Suddenly, fear came to his heart, but in an instant he was occupied by madness, he felt very thirsty, and wanted to drink... Blood!
Preferably human blood!
But then he began to struggle, the whole person became sweaty, and the Ming Chen in front of him disappeared.
Is there a need for any triggers? Why did it fail?
With such a question, Ming Chen came to the door of the pharmacy.
Yesterday there was a long queue at the pharmacy.
The doors are closed!
A wrinkled grandmother next to her reminded: "You're late, Ziliang was called by Uncle Lu, it seems that there is something important." ”
