Chapter 367 When the Demon Emperor comes, I'm not afraid
The owner of the purifier shop is dead. This thin old man lay quietly on a pile of magic weapons, no breathing, no heartbeat, no life, and even his soul was drained.
The evil cultivator who seized the child's soul refining weapon was eventually drained of his soul by his accomplices. He was lying on the pure magic weapon that he had been proud of all his life, but unfortunately the magic weapon under him had been destroyed one by one, turning into a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron, and there was no longer that feeling of perfection.
"One step too late. After Cheng Ziming checked the body of the owner of the purifier shop, he searched the room, but unfortunately he didn't find any useful clues, and even the magic weapon in perfect condition couldn't find another one. It can be seen that the people who came to extinguish the mouth were quick with their hands and feet, and they did things cleanly.
And the weasel, named "Chicken Thief", simply disappeared and disappeared. Cheng Ziming speculated that he was probably abducted by the murderer of the store owner. But why did this mastermind behind the scenes kill the shopkeeper and take the weasel away? Wouldn't it be more straightforward to kill the weasels together? Cheng Ziming was puzzled and couldn't find a clue for a while.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Chen Ping, along with two middle-aged men, rushed in with a group of people. When everyone saw the corpse of the thin old man, they were all dumbfounded.
"There must have been a leak of the rumors, and the shopkeeper was killed by his accomplices. Cheng Ziming's eyes were sharp, and he swept over the people in front of him one by one.
"What are these words? Are you saying that we are not doing things well, or do you mean that there are evil cultivators among us?" A purple-robed immortal cultivator with a white face and long beard at the head glanced at Cheng Ziming unslowly, and said in a deep voice.
Chen Ping interjected at the right time: "Boss Xue, this is the owner of our Treasure Pavilion. β
After speaking, Chen Ping took two steps forward, pointed at the purple-robed immortal cultivator and said, "Dongjia, this is the boss of the Four Elephant Pavilion, Xue Daoren. β
"I knew that the Treasure Pavilion had changed the big owner, but when I saw it today, it turned out to be a little monk in the Qi refining period. Hmph!" Xue Daoren's attitude was obviously not very friendly. He is a cultivator at the peak of the Jiedan, and Cheng Ziming wears the witch's jade pendant, so it seems that he is already in the realm of qi refining, and he is a very inconspicuous existence among everyone.
"The clue to this black shop was found by me more than ten days ago, and there has been no movement for so many days, how can the owner of the store be killed as soon as I notify you? At the same time, his gaze swept over the faces of the crowd, and he searched for the leaker with the most unnatural expression after hearing the accusation.
Unfortunately, he saw all kinds of expressions of surprise, disdain, confusion, and anxiety, but he did not find any suspicious person.
At this time, a middle-aged man with a haggard face walked out and persuaded: "The owner, Boss Cheng, everyone is for the sake of my family's children, let's say a few words." β
Cheng Ziming glanced at this person, obviously, this was the father of the kidnapped twins, Song Bao, who was the deputy shopkeeper in the Sixiang Pavilion.
He groaned slightly, and said to Song Bao: "Presumably Daoyou is the shopkeeper of Song." Now that the matter has come to this point, the clues have been broken, I don't know if Shopkeeper Song can tell the situation at the time of the case in detail, and perhaps, other clues can be found from it. The mansion down is just behind Yipin Street, so why don't you come to my house and talk about it in detail?"
"This ......" Song Bao glanced at Boss Xue hesitantly.
Boss Xue snorted and said, "It's just a Qi refining cultivator, how much ability can he have." Brother Song, see the situation clearly, time is precious and cannot be wasted. β
Song Baoyi gritted his teeth and said, "The owner, if this little brother hadn't found out about this black shop, we wouldn't have known why Xiaonu and Xiao'er were kidnapped. If it's really for the sake of taking souls, then the names of my sons and daughters are in danger. Even if there is little hope, I have to give it a try. β
After speaking, Song Bao nodded to Cheng Ziming and said, "There is Boss Lao Cheng, if I can really find the clue to rescue my children again, I will definitely do everything I have, and I will be grateful for Boss Cheng's kindness." β
......
Half an hour later, Cheng Ziming welcomed Song Bao to the study at home. Only here is something to talk about.
"Don't hide it from Shopkeeper Song, I suspect that your children are likely to have been killed. Cheng Ziming said straight to the point. He saw that Song Bao loved his children very much, and Cheng Ziming didn't want to give him unrealistic illusions.
Song Bao's face turned pale and he sat down on the chair.
Cheng Ziming knew that Song Bao probably had a premonition from this before, but he just didn't want to admit it. After a pause, Cheng Ziming continued: "However, even if they have been killed, Daoyou, as a father, still has to rescue them. Because what they are facing now is not a matter of life and death, but a major event of whether they can be reincarnated. β
"I understand. "Song Bao has been to the Purifier Workshop, and he has already heard about the methods of evil cultivation. The divine soul is locked in a magic weapon and cannot be reincarnated, which is equivalent to being a coolie for the rest of his life, which is the most feared and terrifying ending for immortal cultivators.
"I have a kind of talisman that can send the souls of the dead to the Nether Ghost to be reincarnated. Even if it's a divine soul imprisoned in a magic weapon, I have a way to rescue it. Cheng Ziming finally got to the point, he invited Song Bao to his study to talk secretly, naturally not to find new clues, but because Song Bao is the deputy treasurer of Sixiang Pavilion, and the key raw material for making the death talisman - gentian stone is not for sale in the collection of Sixiang Pavilion.
Cheng Ziming glanced at Song Bao and found that he was listening very carefully, so he continued: "But to make this kind of talisman, I need gentian stone......
Song Bao's body was shocked, and then he sighed and said, "I understand." However, I must see the souls of my children to confirm that they need this talisman. β
"That's easy to say. Cheng Ziming said: "Now that the sky is dark, you go to get the gentian stone now, and then come to my mansion immediately, I am sure that I will let you see your children before dawn tomorrow." Whether it's life or death, a soul or a magic weapon, in short, I will give you an explanation. β
Cheng Ziming said this with confidence, and the reason why he was so confident was because the housekeeper hedgehog revealed a crucial clue to him, and this clue could guide him to find the missing child.
Song Bao looked directly into Cheng Ziming's eyes and observed for a moment before he said, "Boss Cheng can really make a reincarnated talisman? β
After the two negotiated, Cheng Ziming asked the housekeeper hedgehog to send the guests away.
When the hedgehog returned to the study, Cheng Ziming was silently looking at a map. This is the street map of the eastern district of the demon capital, and he was silent for a moment before he said: "Ade, the mansion you mentioned is not small. You heard it right. β
"Young master, don't worry, the villain still has this confidence. The hedgehog put his two paws in front of him and said respectfully: "At that time, the villain and the young master were staring in the alley, and I suddenly heard a strange clanging sound from the purification workshop, like the sound of a female cultivator colliding with each other. Then I heard the shopkeeper say that the people from the Xinglong Courtyard hadn't come to deliver the goods for two days, and the gang was getting lazier and lazier, so they had to take care of itβand then he let out a scream, and then he was silent. β
"Hmm. The Purifying Vessel Workshop refines the Divine Soul into the magic weapon, and the Divine Soul is the raw material. In this way, the purchase that the dead shopkeeper wants should be the soul of the child. Then logically speaking, this Star Dragon Courtyard is naturally the place where the evil cultivators store their souls. Cheng Ziming looked down, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "But this Star Dragon Courtyard is not small." The owner of the courtyard is so mysterious that even a well-informed person like you can't find out the results. The only thing I know is that there is only one housekeeper and two demon servants living in the Star Dragon Courtyard at ordinary times, and it is surrounded by defensive formations, which are very well guarded. β
"Young Master. The hedgehog asked with some hesitation: "Since it's not easy to break in, it's better to forget it." The young master has not yet started a family, so what does the little boy who lost the demon capital have to do with the young master? The villain always has a hunch that if this matter continues, I am afraid that there will be big trouble. The villain is a hedgehog, born with a keen sense, and also has some ability to predict natural and man-made disasters. β
Cheng Ziming didn't answer, he shook his head silently, he had already promised Fu Xiaodie and Song Bao to send the trapped soul to be reincarnated, and after making so many preparations in front of him, it was already past the time to give up lightly.
"Young Master. The hedgehog asked hesitantly again, "Even if you want to break into the Star Spirit Academy, you don't have to go alone." If this is the nest of evil cultivators, wouldn't it be very dangerous? β
"There are so many people that we can't leak the news anymore. Cheng Ziming said in a deep voice: "Besides, I have a rare spirit sword, take this treasure with me, even if the demon emperor comes in person, I am not afraid." β
