About a year ago, Baoqi Town, which was originally a smooth weather, suddenly became full of disasters.

Because Baoqi Town is located in the mountains and rivers, it has always lacked water sources.

Most of the town's residents get their daily water from wells. However, the wells are not easy to drill, the geography is difficult to choose, and the water is also turbid.

Even though there are some shallow pools around, they often dry up, and there is rarely a large amount of water storage, which is not enough for the thousands of households in Baoqi Town.

But a year ago, something strange happened.

A large number of ground fissures appeared around Baoqi Town, forming various culverts and waterways.

However, in a few months, the town, which had been short of water since ancient times, became abundant.

Logically speaking, this should be considered a good thing.

But since there is more water in Baoqi Town, strange things have increased.

For example, strange beasts and birds often appear at night, ravaging the countryside and even attacking local residents. Another example is the increase in strange diseases in the town, and there are often residents who die in unknown places.

The most appalling thing is the sharp increase in homicide cases, and the strange criminal cases with tragic casualties in the originally ordinary ancient town have been frequently reported one after another.

Patrolling the local government of Xuwu Prefecture, he was anxious and miserable.

Later, rumors began in the town, saying that there was a demonic overflow in the Jinglong Palace underground thousands of years ago, which led to drastic changes in the local geography, so strange things happened frequently.

As soon as the rumors broke, the residents panicked and became suspicious.

Since then, there have been various gossips and goblins, soul-devouring spirits, possession, trickery, nightmares, cannibalism and heart-gouging, etc.

If it's just a rumor, that's it.

But there are really a lot of strange things, such as the shadowless things infested by goblins and ghosts, which gradually become beginning and end, and the people who encounter them are all clear and understandable.

The government yamen repeatedly banned it, and began to put up notices to warn the residents of the town not to chase after the wind, not to exaggerate, and to put an end to rumors.

But it backfired, and as soon as the official yamen notice came out, it only made the residents of Baoqi Town more panicked.

Not only did the rumors not subside, but they did outrageous.

Many crimes in which the cause of death is unknown are all rumored to have been committed by goblins and ghosts.

In less than a year, Baoqi Town has become a place of bad luck shrouded in demon clouds and strange things. Many rich and powerful squires began to move away one after another, causing panic among people.

In Yanlang Lane, under the five doctors' locust trees, Jiang Youcai wiped his tears and whispered in shock and fear:

"Little fairy, you've just arrived, and you don't know what's going on in the town. If you are a local, you must be like me, and you will want to leave......"

Chen Fusheng listened to him for a long time, full of frightened rumors, and didn't start to say anything about what happened to the Jiang family or his own family, and couldn't help but comfort:

"Don't panic, let's talk about the Jiang family's ...... first"

Before the words fell, Jiang Youcai's neck shrank, and he quickly pulled Chen Fusheng's sleeve, didn't dare to look at the alley, and lowered his voice:

"Let's go, don't talk about it, be careful of causing trouble. ”

As he spoke, he picked up Chen Fusheng and left quickly.

It wasn't until another street and alley that was quite far away and still quite crowded that Jiang Youcai stopped with palpitations.

He found a stone pier and sat down, wiped his sweat, and sighed:

"Little fairy, you don't know anything. It's not that I'm suspicious, it's that my cousin's family is full of extinction, and it's miserable, so I really don't dare to say more about that place......"

Chen Fusheng nodded slightly and listened attentively.

Jiang Youcai continued:

"On the day of the incident, it was the lunar month of previous years, and every household was preparing winter food. I also heard the rumors from the yamen, and then I learned that something happened to my uncle's family......"

"Alas, the scene at that time, I still dare not recall it, it was too miserable...... Uncle Cousin's old man is a famous local doctor, and his family is quite wealthy.

Although Jiang Botong left home and had no news, he adopted a few disciples at home, and there were servants to settle down, everything was quite ...... behind him."

"Counting it, there are more than ten or twenty people, old and young, all died unexpectedly that night, and there is no one alive ......"

Jiang Youcai shuddered, and whispered tremblingly:

"Uncle and aunt, heads are different...... The rest of the disciples and servants were all broken bones, as if they had been torn apart...... The rest of the family also died of blood, and they died without turning a blind eye......"

Speaking of this, Jiang Youcai choked up for a while, didn't dare to say any more, and wiped his tears with trembling.

Chen Fusheng secretly took a cool breath.

Just these few words are enough to imagine the tragic situation at that time.

"What do the people from the government yamen say?" Chen Fusheng asked again.

"Alas...... What else can be said. Jiang Youcai shook his head and couldn't help sighing, "The murderer is nowhere to be found, and the case is unknown." The government determined that it was a rogue bandit, and it was only because of the burglary that caused the bloody disaster......"

"But...... Neighbors in Smokecage Lane say it can't be the bandits. ”

Jiang Youcai lowered his voice sadly, "Because everyone around has never heard any movement." More than 20 people suffered this tragedy, but they died silently...... You say, little fairy, is there such a strange and wonderful robbery in the world?"

"So you all think that this matter was done by goblins and ghosts?" Chen Fusheng frowned.

"Little fairy, there are some things, I have to believe it!" Jiang Youcai hurriedly lowered his voice, looked around, and said:

"I've heard that my cousin's house has collided with demonic energy, and there are medicinal herbs that the ghosts hate, so it caused a tragedy. ”

Chen Fusheng was silent, so he had to ask:

"Is the Jiang family's former residence still there?"

"How dare you keep it!"

Jiang Youcai hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head, "The official government yamen sealed the mansion and invited a group of monks and Taoists to do a big deal. Then, a thorn fence was set up around the perimeter to prohibit entry and exit. ”

"So far, the Jiang family's mansion has long been deserted and decayed, and has collapsed in many places. The surrounding neighbors have moved away several times, not to mention others, even those beggars who have no food and clothing, dare not go. ”

Chen Fusheng was silent again, thinking secretly in his heart, and he could only find an opportunity to quietly take a look.

If it is broad daylight and swaggering, I don't know how many gossips will be aroused and suspicion will be aroused.

"You said earlier that there are a lot of water sources in the town for no reason?" Chen Fusheng suddenly thought of a question and hurriedly asked again.

"yes. Jiang Youcai nodded, "In the past year, there have been a lot of nullahs that store water, and there are many sunken deep-water ponds, all of which are strange things that have never been seen before. ”

Chen Fusheng couldn't help but think of what the old Taoist priest said:

"Regardless of goblins and ghosts, if they want to be formed, they must obtain the Dao Yun Qi Machine, also known as the heaven-sent chance......"

"However, for the divergence of the Dao Yun Qi Machine, there must be a temple view of the foundation of the 'Spirit Kiln' before ...... can be born."

"Small towns and villages, only with the foundation of beautiful mountains, living water, hundred-year-old Wang people, and thousands of households, can it be possible to build a 'spirit kiln'......"

“...... Baoqi Town has no foundation, and there will never be a 'spirit kiln'. Then naturally it will not turn into a goblin and a ghost......"

......

Xiushan, living water, 100-year-old Wang people, 1,000 households...... Chen Fusheng groaned secretly, so it seems that Baoqi Town already has the foundation of "Spirit Kiln".

In other words, there are practitioners who have already built temples here?

Sure enough, the old Taoist priest said that Baoqi Town has undergone great changes!

Chen Fusheng looked at Jiang Youcai's depressed appearance, and asked again:

"Then what's going on in your home?"

Jiang Youcai's face suddenly collapsed, he was overly depressed, and said hoarsely:

"There is only one seedling in my family, who is 20 years old this year. A few months ago, Zhang Luo married a daughter-in-law for him. Alas, who knows......"

"Seeing that my daughter-in-law is pregnant and about to give birth, I don't know what strange things have happened...... The belly is getting bigger and bigger, not only can I not give birth, but my daughter-in-law wakes up from time to time when she is a child, and she becomes strange and abnormal, which is terrifying......"

Jiang Youcai talked about his family affairs, and he was even more timid and afraid, his face was full of wrinkles and squeezed into a pile, and he was so sad that he seemed to be dripping bitter water.

Chen Fusheng looked at his situation, and couldn't ask anything more, thought about it, took the hexagram flag in his hand, and stood in front of Jiang Youcai.

"Come, I'll do a divination for you. ”

"Ahh
