Chapter 56: Soul Beast

In the distance, there was an earth-shattering cry from the village, which was really sad and made people cry.

Chen Laomou jumped off the horse, opened the crowd of onlookers, and looked at the dead people. The county magistrate had already carried all the people out and laid them out, and each corpse was covered with a white cloth.

Chen Laomou squatted down and lifted the white cloth, revealing the horrific corpse inside. The corpse was barely humanoid, its skin was black and dry, and the blood on its body seemed to have been sucked dry by something, leaving only one skeleton. I've heard of monsters that can soar through the clouds and fog in the Guanlan Mountains before, could it be that the monsters have broken into the state capital and killed humans?

Chen Laomou frowned, and he had an inexplicable foreboding in his heart, this phenomenon was beyond the scope of his perception, and it must be reported to the Zhenbei Division!

Just when Chen Laomou turned around and got on the horse, he saw a young man standing in the crowd, dressed in green clothes, with his brows tightly locked, as if he was thinking about something. Although the man was ordinary-looking, his eyes were extremely bright and full of wisdom.

"This person is not from the state capital!" This was Chen Laomou's first thought, and he took his foot off the stirrup and came to the young man: "This son, what do you seem to think?"

The young man is naturally Liu Changqing, originally he was meditating and practicing in the retreat shuttle, but the fine scales were busy manipulating the retreat shuttle, and he had a lot of fun, but he actually lost his way, and it was difficult to distinguish the direction underground, there was no way, Liu Changqing had to drill out of the ground, put away the retreat shuttle, and the sword flew. When passing through this place, I found that the whole village was covered in black smoke, and there was a faint cry coming from the village, and someone must have died.

Liu Changqing is quite sensitive to black smoke, because what he is cultivating now is the Ten Thousand Ghosts Dynasty Sect, and in the black smoke he smells the breath of ghosts! There are ghosts and ghosts here, which endanger the common people! Although he only has the late stage of spiritual cultivation, and he doesn't know what level of ghosts and monsters are, but as a catcher of the former Great Chu, he naturally wants to figure it out, if he can help the villagers within the scope of his ability, he can help, if the other party is too powerful, he can only persuade the villagers to leave quickly.

Liu Changqing recognized the clothes on Chen Laomou's body, and he had worn it for a while, but fortunately, he still had the waist card of Zhenbei Yinwei in his hand, and took it out and shook it to Chen Laomou, "I have something to do, I happened to pass by here, and I saw that there was a murder, so I here's to take a look!"

"I've seen an adult!" Chen Laomou's eyes lit up, and he naturally recognized it as the waist card of Zhenbei Si Yinwei, and sighed in his heart, this adult was too young and too light, but his face was very respectful: "My lord, what do you think is going on? Do you need to evacuate all the nearby residents?"

"No, if I say that there are ghosts here, and it is the ghosts that suck up the essence and blood of the villagers, do you believe it?" Liu Changqing looked at Chen Laomou and asked.

"Ah?!Is this—Is this true??" Chen Laomou shuddered with fright, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead. Ghosts have been extremely difficult to deal with since ancient times, and once appeared in a town where thousands of people were sucked dry of blood by ghosts overnight and turned into dried corpses!

"Okay, maybe I'm wrong, you take someone back first, tell everyone here to go back, close the door at night, and stick this talisman on the door! Remember, no one can tear off the talisman! Once they are torn off, I can't guarantee their safety!" After speaking, Liu Changqing handed Chen Laomou a stack of evil spirit runes, which he drew when he practiced drawing spirit runes, which belonged to low-level spirit runes, and could only play a certain role in blocking evil spirits.

Chen Laomou took the spirit talisman in surprise, how could the people of Zhenbei Division still know the immortal law, and he was suspicious in his heart, but he still told all the villagers what Liu Changqing said. But the families of several dead villagers were reluctant to leave, crying heartbroken, they were crying about the death of their relatives, and more importantly, they lost the support of their future life!

Liu Changqing sighed, and took out the silver tickets from his arms, five hundred taels for each family, and five thousand taels for ten families, these silver taels are all ill-gotten gains looted in Dajue Temple, anyway, I don't need it, it's better to do some good deeds.

Chen Laomou and all the villagers were stunned, this is five thousand taels of real money, five hundred taels for a family, enough to live for decades.

"Thank you Bodhisattva! Thank you Bodhisattva!" Dozens of family members of the victim villagers all knelt down and bowed to Liu Changqing, the most important thing is to have a secure life in the future, and the person in front of him is a living Bodhisattva!

Liu Changqing hurriedly stretched out his hand to pick up everyone, and repeatedly told him to stick the spirit talisman on the door after going back, so as to ensure safety. All of them went back with the talisman in their hands.

"My lord, what are you" Chen Laomou was very puzzled, this young adult acted so strangely, and suddenly scattered five thousand taels of silver.

"Money is something outside of the body, just do your best. You can take people away too, don't leave anyone at night, these corpses will come back tomorrow to collect them, buy some coffins, and let them be buried in the ground." Liu Changqing handed Chen Laomou two hundred taels of silver, and walked to the village alone, taking advantage of the fact that it was still dark, to inspect the scene.

Chen Lao Mou looked at Liu Changqing who walked into the village, and his heart became more and more strange, this young adult is really generous, and he doesn't seem to be afraid of ghosts.

Although Chen Laomou was worried about Liu Changqing's safety, seeing Liu Changqing's calm expression, he still waved his hand to withdraw all the arrests and wait for tomorrow to come.

Because there were two murders, the villagers died unclear, and the other villagers were afraid to come out, the streets of the whole village were empty, Liu Changqing took a tea time to walk around, and did not find anything abnormal, so he found a big tree, flew to the tree, meditated cross-legged, and waited for the night to fall.

Soon, the sun set, the night came, there was no moon tonight, the sky over the entire village was covered by dark clouds, and the black smoke in Liu Changqing's eyes became thicker and thicker. As soon as the sky arrived, a black light flew from the northwest corner and fell into the village, but it was a small beast like a monkey, but two long fangs were exposed, and the forelimbs were relatively long, and they were all dragged to the ground, what is this?

"It's a soul beast! there is still such a thing?" The voice of the book spirit sounded in Liu Changqing's mind, and he looked very surprised.

"Soul beast, what kind of demon beast is this?" asked Liu Changqing curiously.

"The soul beast is actually not a real demon beast, but a kind of alien beast naturally derived from the place where a large number of souls gather, it has no gender, no parents, is born and grows, and mainly devours souls. I have to say that master, your luck is too good and too rebellious, this guy with fine scales broke into a mess, and actually let the master you touch the soul beast!

"Shu Ling, do you mean that the soul beast is very useful to me?" Hearing Shu Ling say this, Liu Changqing realized that this soul beast seemed to be very useful to him.
