Chapter 36: The town is foggy and rumors
But along the way, he observed many people, and his brow furrowed.
Suddenly, the old man's voice interrupted Li Guanqi's thoughts.
"Immortal Master, this is the residence of the second dog of the king."
"He died the day before yesterday, and he hasn't had time to clean it up."
Li Guanqi nodded slightly.
Then he walked straight to the door and slowly pushed it open!
Squeak!
The dilapidated wooden door creaked.
This voice couldn't help but make people's hairs stand up, and then the scene inside the door even Li Guanqi couldn't help but gasp.
The bloody breath came to his face, and the temperature in the room dropped sharply.
The scene in front of him gave Li Guanqi a lot of goosebumps on his arms.
I saw a sturdy man hanging upside down on a beam of twine rope.
A pair of scissors is put on the wrist, and there is a meat ball tied to the scissors.
When I looked at the man's eyes again, there were only two blood holes left.
The man's toes were all cut off raw!
The fatal wound was the extremely long wound on the neck.
It's just that there are a lot of scratches around the wound as well.
It seems that the scissors are not too sharp and repeatedly cut.
Blood covered the entire floor, and it had become quite sticky by this time.
This situation is the first time even Li Guanqi has seen it, and originally he thought that this mission was just to catch the evil ghost.
However, it now seems that things are not as simple as he imagined.
When I got up and looked around, I saw that the man's home was very messy and noisy, but that was all.
Then Li Guanqi took out a filthy talisman, and the spirit talisman instantly burned during the surge of vitality.
The moment the spirit rune touched the blood on the ground, it exploded instantly!
As the flames burned, bursts of black smoke erupted from the blood.
After a few moments, the black smoke cleared, and the cold breath in the room gradually disappeared.
Everyone nodded slightly when they saw this.
They also thought that the Great Xia Sword Sect had sent a hairy boy to perfunctory things.
The previous ones just looked at it, and they didn't see anything famous.
Li Guanqi, who was standing in place, couldn't help frowning when he saw the concentration of this black smoke.
He whispered, "Looks like a powerful guy!" ”
Then Li Guanqi said softly: "This will allow people to clean up the body and bury it as soon as possible." ”
"It's hot, and the corpse stinks after a while."
The old man hurriedly beckoned someone to help clean it up.
Then the old man walked quickly to the young man's side and asked in a slightly uneasy whisper, "Immortal Master, are you sure about dealing with this evil ghost?" ”
Li Guanqi smiled slightly, and said softly: "Whether you are sure or not, you have to try it to know." ”
"I should stay here for a few days, the yang energy is too strong during the day, and those powerful ghosts will not come out to do evil."
"I'll try him tonight!"
The reason why Li Guanqi said this was also to make the villagers in the town feel a little more at ease.
However, he really didn't have any confidence in this, so he could only ask at the sword box: "Sword Spirit, do you have any good solutions?" ”
Half an hour later, the voice of the sword spirit sounded in Li Guanqi's mind.
"Tsk, I thought you had a lot of ability, and you were here to support it for a long time."
"Simple."
"When it's ugly, as long as you sit in the window position in the south and cultivate, you will naturally lead her out."
Li Guanqi asked a little puzzled: "Why is it ugly?" ”
The Sword Spirit's voice seemed to be very impatient to explain the problem.
"The ugly hour is the time when the yin energy is at its highest among the twelve hours of the day."
"Of course, the location by the window is convenient for her to start, as for cultivation..."
"Your boy's body is like a lantern at night if you don't cultivate, and cultivation is just the effect of adding a few more candles."
After finishing speaking, the sword spirit suddenly reminded: "But you don't have to worry, I can make a move this time!" ”
Li Guanqi was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the other party to make a move.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but laugh and said, "What? Worried about me, do you want to do it yourself? ”
Silent.
After a long time, the sword spirit said arrogantly with seven points of disdain and three points in his voice.
"It seems that you are really blind, and you can't even recognize how many pounds and taels you have."
"Worried about you? I'm afraid that I won't have a place to absorb Yuan Li in the future. ”
"I can also absorb some of the power of evil grudges of the ghosts, and I will always devour some power from other places before you build a foundation."
Then the sword spirit's voice gradually fell silent.
And Li Guanqi smiled at the corner of his mouth, and whispered: "It's stable." ”
But at this time, there was still a long time before dark, and Li Guanqi first ate a local dish with the people in the town.
The spicy sensation whetted his appetite.
Xingyun Town is located in a plain, surrounded by mountains, which also causes some mist here to be shrouded in fog all year round, and the air is very humid.
Using chili pepper as a garnish can sweat and get rid of the cold in the body.
In the afternoon, Li Guanqi walked around the town at will.
Because of his arrival, the villagers who had been closed also dared to take advantage of the fact that it was still dark to go out and walk.
And in the afternoon, he also learned some other news from other people's mouths.
Li Guanqi, who was squatting on the side of the road, suddenly felt that things appeared in front of him like a mess.
The first person to die was named Zhang Daniu, who once had a mute wife who disappeared many years ago.
Later, Zhang Daniu found a widow in the town, and the two of them lived together.
After Zhang Daniu's death, the widow was also missing.
Those who died after that were all men from the village, some singles and others families.
"Hey...... What exactly is the relationship between these people? ”
Just when Li Guanqi was worried, his ears suddenly moved.
On the side of the road not far away, two middle-aged women held melon seeds in their hands, and their eyes kept drifting around.
The two of them whispered these things, and their expressions were exaggerated.
Even if they were more than ten feet apart, Li Guanqi felt that the two of them must be discussing some major matters.
Taking some mountain pastries from the storage bag, Li Guanqi naturally leaned over.
"What are the sisters talking about? I have two pieces of pastry from the mountain, I really can't eat them, so I might as well give them a try. ”
The middle-aged fat woman was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly reached out to take the pastry and said with a smile: "Oh, little immortal master, you... You're welcome. ”
Li Guanqi smiled slightly and asked, "I just saw the rise of the two sisters' chat, can you tell my younger brother about it?" ”
The slightly thin woman beside her glanced around, leaned into Li Guanqi's ear and said, "What can I say, it's about the people who died!" ”
Li Guanqi raised his eyebrows, his voice lowered a lot unconsciously, and said in a low voice: "Do you know some other insider information?" ”
As soon as she heard the word insider, the fat lady suddenly looked around like a thief.
Seeing that there was no one around, he spit out two words at Li Guanqi.
"Retribution!"
