Chapter 42 Seriously suspect that the man just ran away from home
[Since last year, there have been strange disappearances in Yuyang County. Men, old and young, good-looking and ugly, often go missing. People in the county treated it as a joke at first, but now they are beginning to feel uneasy. ]
[You and Niu Sandao came here to handle the case together with a group of practitioners. 】
[When you have no clue, a charming woman waves to you at the entrance of the alley and asks you to come and play. 】
[You actually passed by and found that the other person was not a human being. You increased your vigilance and followed the other person. On the way, you found other practitioners, and they were all hooked into the treacherous hook fence, and they were fascinated. 】
[When you come to the evil gate Goulan, a big battle is about to take place.]
This is a normal development of the plot. Su Fei knows that he is involved in it. If he makes a slight change, the ending will change.
It's just that the plot sounds quite unnerving, but there is very little information available.
Moreover, the plot description this time gives an open ending, which makes people wonder. Did he defeat the evil girls, or did he become a tool of the evil girls?
Everything is unknown.
The diversity of crisis plots is revealed.
We can dig out some clues inside, at least we know that the evil spirit that committed the crime exists in the form of a sly hook, and the usual method is to wave at the entrance of the alley, and we also know the reason why the man disappeared.
Su Fei decided to do this well.
Not only is it the beginning of expanding the reputation of Lingxian Temple, but it is also a manifestation of justice. After all, a city lacking men will be too quiet at night.
A few days later.
Inside the Yamen of Yuyang County.
Niu Sandao led the Taoist priests from Lingxian Temple here.
The situation is the same as described in the plot. In order to handle things more securely, Yuyang County Magistrate hired many experts, but it was stated in advance that only the person who really solves the trouble will receive the reward.
The lobby is noisy now.
Many family members of the victims were also present.
"I'm just a man, the Taoist priest must help me..." A woman had tears in her eyes, holding Su Fei's left hand and begging softly.
"The Taoist priest can see that he is an eminent monk and will definitely be able to help us find our husbands." The other woman seemed to be stronger and held Su Fei's right hand, but she also seemed to be more ignorant. The monk and the Taoist priest said in confusion.
"As soon as you meet the Taoist priest, you feel at ease."
"Taoist Priest, I have a cousin..."
"I also have a cousin..."
The content of the debate gradually went sideways.
"It's time for the Dao Alliance to take care of the trend in the world of judging people based on their faces." A broad-faced sect figure said coldly.
"No, last year I caught a monster with a monk who was kinder than me. It turned out that I contributed the most and he got the lion's share of the money. It's not fair."
"What's the use of looking good? When the critical moment comes, the monsters and monsters don't care what you look like. The prettier you are, the more delicious it will be for others to eat."
A group of elites who were also invited by Yuyang County looked sideways at Su Fei and said sour words, but each felt miserable in their hearts, wondering why they were not so handsome.
Moreover, they were all invited, so why was he the only one receiving attention? This was unfair. They also wanted to be surrounded by women, and that feeling should be wonderful.
Su Fei didn't think this was anything. When people are in helpless difficulties, from a human psychological point of view, they are more willing to trust people who have a friendly face.
It is only natural that his Taoist temperament becomes more and more outstanding and he can gain the trust of others.
"I'll do my best, just wait and see." Su Fei comforted the many women.
A Taoist priest walked in at this time. After seeing Su Fei, he was stunned for a moment, and then his expression was full of unhappiness.
He is Wu Changqing, an outstanding disciple of the traditional Taoist Qingyun Temple, and he once had a relationship with Su Fei.
At that time, the Taoist priest who grabbed the job crushed Xie Sui with his bare hands, which shocked him so much that he couldn't help but make a sound.
After returning to Qingyun Temple, I didn’t even think about food and drinks, and studied the quick, effective and elegant way to eliminate demons.
Finally I figured it out, it was just gathering the spiritual energy in my hands and forcefully pulling out the evil spirits.
From the perspective of traditional evil spirits, it is not advisable. Apart from being smart and simple, it has serious side effects. First of all, it will consume a lot of spiritual energy. If there is more than one evil spirit, the next battle will be extremely difficult, and some people may even lose their lives.
risk.
Jianghu monks are always cautious in their actions and always think about how to do things with the least amount of spiritual energy.
So Wu Changqing turned from being surprised at Su Fei to being disdainful, because he seemed to be able to do that.
"I didn't expect you to come." Su Fei and Qingyunguan didn't have any big grudges at first. They took away their work last time, so now it's polite to say hello.
"Pindao has quite a lot of experience in eliminating demons. In addition, he has made a breakthrough in his realm recently and has reached the peak of Qi training. Naturally, he has to go out more and practice more." Wu Changqing said things easily.
What he said was just to save some face for Qingyun Temple, and the effect was indeed good. At least the practitioners' eyes stayed on him for a while, feeling quite envious.
Qingyun Temple is a powerful Taoist temple in Taoyuan County, but the fees are a bit high. Otherwise, Niu Sandao would not have thought of going to Qingyun Temple to find help for the Ning family murder case.
The county magistrate arrived late, and when he saw that all the monks he had invited had arrived, he spoke and described the dire situation in Yuyang County as extremely miserable, but the central point remained the same, which was that Yuyang County was in disgrace.
Based on the information provided by the magistrate, many practitioners started discussions.
"Men have the strongest yang energy, so they should be taken away to make elixirs. We should find the direction from the perspective of alchemy."
"This fellow Taoist has just heard clearly. The county magistrate once invited monks to catch evil spirits and retrieved several men who were in distress. The matter involved the Resentful Soul Pearl and has nothing to do with the human elixir."
"Then it's to catch a man and condense the Soul Bead of Resentment."
Wu Changqing listened to a group of people wasting time and interrupted: "What we want to discuss now is not the cause of the matter, but how to catch evil and save people. We must have a direction..."
"It is recommended that everyone split up. After all, there is only one bounty."
Not only did he put forward the direction, he also showed the layout map of Yuyang County that he had learned in advance, pointing out the areas where men are most likely to get lost.
Su Fei felt that what the Taoist said was reasonable and he was careful enough in his work, so he casually agreed: "Yes! Saving people is important."
As soon as he finished speaking, the woman nearby looked at him with tears in her eyes: "What the Taoist said is so good, we are waiting for you."
"With these words from the Taoist Master, we feel relieved."
"Taoist Master, please be safe."
Wu Changqing was furious. He said so much without even a word of applause. Others just said a few words casually and then licked them.
They strongly doubt that their men have run away from home rather than being lost.
Su Fei also felt that there was something unusual. He used the body observation technique to look at a group of women who had lost their men, and found that they had too much yin energy and needed to get rid of some moisture, otherwise they would be more affectionate towards things with strong yang energy.
It's not a big problem, just crush a pill and spread some refreshing fragrance.
It's just that I didn't have a good grasp of the body observation technique, and my gaze penetrated a little too much.
Su Fei looked at a colorful ink landscape painting in the hall, it was a magnificent scenery with colorful purples and reds.
