Chapter 89 Burning the Zhou Familys Ancestral House
Out of the Zhou family.
Xu Yi and others temporarily found a restaurant to sit down and discuss countermeasures.
"Zhou Qin's strength is not weak. She was injured in the hands of that evil spirit. If we want to deal with that evil spirit, I'm afraid it won't be that easy."
Xiao Wen had a sad look on her face.
Originally, she had great confidence in whether she and others could kill the evil spirits.
But now, the confidence has disappeared a lot.
After all, they got the exact information about Zhou Qin from Tianchawei and understood that the other party was a master in the middle stage of Tongmai.
Hand others to join forces.
It may not be much better than a single mid-level master of Tongmai.
Hear the words.
Jiang Yu’s face didn’t look very good either, and there was sadness on her pretty face: “If we can’t deal with that evil spirit, this mission will be considered a failure——”
If it is a general task failure, then forget it.
If they fail the assessment task, the Demon Suppressor will not give them a chance to stop and will definitely arrange other tasks.
At that time.
Perhaps the task will be more difficult.
If you fail two or three missions in a row, the punishment from the Demon Suppressor will come.
To know.
The Demon Suppressor never raises idle people.
In the assessment task of the trainee demon slayer, it doesn’t matter if you fail it once or twice. If you fail one after another, the fate of yourself and others will definitely not be easy.
Just when a few people looked sad.
Xu Yi had a faint smile on his face and did not look nervous at all.
“The evil spirit in the Zhou family’s ancestral home is indeed powerful, but we may not have no chance of winning.”
“What does Brother Xu mean by this?”
Jiang Yu had doubts on her face.
The other two people also looked at Xu Yi.
See this.
Xu Yi said calmly: "Zhou Qin went deep into the Zhou family's ancestral home last night and met the evil spirit, which proved that the evil spirit has always existed in the Zhou family's ancestral home.
In other words, the evil spirit may not be able to leave the Zhou family's ancestral home for some reason."
Hearing this sentence, Tian Feibai's brows suddenly condensed.
“Although the evil spirit has always existed in the Zhou family’s ancestral home, it doesn’t mean that the evil spirit has no way to leave the Zhou family’s ancestral home, right?”
“Brother Tian should know that the evil spirit feeds on my human race. Although I don’t know why it will appear in the Zhou family’s ancestral home, but since it appears, its purpose must be to suck the essence and blood of living people.
This can be seen from the fact that many people in the Zhou family died.
But now all the people of the Zhou family have moved away from their ancestral home, and there is no living person there at all. But even so, the evil spirit still lingers.
So I have reason to believe that the evil spirit cannot leave the Zhou family's ancestral home, or it still covets something in the Zhou family's ancestral home, so it keeps lingering."
Xu Yi said this.
He paused and then continued.
“No matter what the reason is, there is no doubt that evil spirits exist in the Zhou family’s ancestral home. A ghost-level monster must be attached to something to exist. If the thing it possesses is destroyed, its strength will inevitably be damaged.
At that time, it will be much easier for us to deal with it.”
Speaking of this.
Tian Feibai and others finally understood Xu Yi’s thoughts.
only--
“The ancestral home of the Zhou family is so big, how can it be so easy to find the place where the evil spirit is possessed?”
“Although the Zhou family’s ancestral home is big, it’s not impossible to find where the evil spirits are hiding. It depends on how we do it.”
Xu Yi smiled slightly.
“As the saying goes, fire and water are merciless. Once the fire passes, everything will be reduced to nothing.”
“You are going to burn down the Zhou family’s ancestral home!”
Xiao Wen was shocked.
The Zhou family's ancestral home is the Zhou family's foundation. Even if there is evil now, the Zhou family's old man is not willing to give it up.
If a fire were to burn down the Zhou family's ancestral home, the other party might not be willing to do so.
Xu Yi said: "For the current plan, the only way to force the evil spirit to appear is to burn down the Zhou family's ancestral home. You must know that killing the evil spirit is the main thing.
Otherwise, when the evil spirit leaves the Zhou family's ancestral home, I don't know how many people will die."
"Should we discuss this matter with the Zhou family?" Tian Feibai looked hesitant.
"Need not."
Xu Yi shook his head.
“When I, the Demon Suppressing Division, need to discuss things with the aristocratic families in a place, anyone who dares to stop the Demon Suppressing Division from slaying evil spirits will be punished with the same crime as betraying the human race.
No matter how bold the Zhou family is, they will never dare to say anything."
Xu Yi knew very well what kind of power the Demon Suppression Division had in Da Qin.
Don’t mention a Jincheng Zhou family.
Even the aristocratic families in the capital did not dare to stop the Demon Suppressor.
It can be said.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is the king in Da Qin.
Except for the current Holy Emperor, even members of the royal family are not qualified to point fingers at the Demon Suppressor.
this--
This is the power of the Demon Suppressor.
Tian Feibai and others first entered the world, and they didn’t understand how powerful the Demon Suppressor was, but Xu Yi knew it very well.
Everyone else looked stunned.
They all just joined the Zhenmo Division not long ago, and it is their first time to leave the Zhenmo Division. They don't quite understand what the Zhenmo Division represents in Da Qin.
But now think about it.
After leaving the Demon Suppression Division, every place he went and everyone he met were polite to him and others.
Combined with what Xu Yi said, it seems to be the same.
“When does Brother Xu plan to take action?”
Tian Feibai asked.
Xu Yi said: "The faster, the better, to avoid long nights and dreams. In today's scorching sun, although it will not have any impact on evil spirits, it will be a great visual convenience for us."
“Ever since the Zhou family’s ancestral home was plagued by evil spirits, the people around it have been as fearful as snakes and scorpions and have not dared to approach it for a long time.
If the Zhou family's ancestral home is burned down, there is no need to worry about affecting others."
Tian Feibai nodded in agreement.
On the Tianchawei side, they had obtained the situation of the Zhou family's ancestral home in advance.
"But -" Xu Yi pondered for a moment: "Burning down the Zhou family's ancestral home will definitely cause some commotion. I suggest going to the Yamen first and borrowing some Yamen servants to maintain order to prevent others from getting involved."
"good!"
——
A few people discussed and decided and hurried towards the Yamen.
Shen Changqing was wandering around Jincheng. Except for the evil atmosphere in Wanhua Building and the Zhou family's ancestral residence, he did not feel the evil atmosphere in any other place.
Can be seen.
Evil spirits only exist in those two places.
"Um?"
Shen Changqing suddenly stopped and looked forward, seeing a large number of government servants approaching.
In the middle of the government officials.
Suddenly they were Xu Yi and the others.
In order to avoid making any sense, he stepped aside and, like other people, stopped and watched the government officials passing by.
Having a cursory glance.
Shen Changqing figured out the number of government officials in front of him.
What makes him curious is that if Xu Yi and others don't think of ways to eliminate the evil spirits, they can't just use the power of the Yamen to eradicate the evil spirits.
Think of this possibility.
Shen Changqing shook his head secretly again.
“Although Jincheng’s yamen are much stronger than Lin’an City, there are hundreds of yamen servants, but most of the yamen servants are just ordinary people, and a few can barely enter the body-forging realm.
Such warriors, no matter how many there are, cannot have a big effect."
Yamen can only maintain normal order in a city, and evil spirits are obviously beyond the jurisdiction of the Yamen.
At the end of the day.
Even if he is a capable master, he will not enter the yamen and just be a small yamen servant or a head catcher.
Don’t talk about distant places.
Simply speaking, he is a Tongmai warrior, and he has some status in the world.
Compared to joining a yamen and becoming a yamen servant to catch the head, Tongmai warriors can definitely get better treatment.
Thus.
It is destined that it is difficult to have any masters in the yamen.
Once an evil spirit appears somewhere, it is completely beyond the control of the yamen, and you need to seek help from the Demon Suppression Department.
So it is simply unrealistic to rely on the power of the yamen to deal with evil spirits.
Having doubts in my heart.
Shen Changqing did not stop, but quietly followed behind the many government servants.
Not long.
He stopped.
“The ancestral home of the Zhou family?”
Shen Changqing raised his eyebrows and jumped to the roof.
That position is just enough to have a clear view of the whole picture below, but because of the obstruction of the building, people below can't see themselves at all.
at this time.
He looked down at the scene below.
I saw a group of government officials scattering in all directions and driving away some people who came close to the ancestral home of the Zhou family without permission.
followed by.
Other government servants brought in kerosene, firewood, etc., and surrounded the ancestral house of the Zhou family.
See here.
Shen Changqing understood exactly what Xu Yi and others wanted to do.
“Burning down the ancestral home of the Zhou family is indeed the most convenient way to deal with evil spirits.”
He nodded secretly.
For low-level evil spirits, it is appropriate and easiest to use fire to force them to appear.
Instead of going deep into the Zhou family's ancestral home and fighting the evil spirits who don't know where they are hiding, it would be better to burn the Zhou family clean with a fire.
At that time.
Evil spirits that have nowhere to hide will naturally appear.
“Don’t leave out any place. Make sure the outside of the Zhou family’s ancestral house is piled up. Then wait for my order and light the fire at the same time.”
Xu Yi stood in front of the ancestral house of the Zhou family and gave orders to the surrounding government officials.
Hear the words.
Those government officials set off immediately.
Then, he looked at the person standing next to him.
"Liu Captou, after lighting the fire, you will lead the government officials to evacuate the Zhou family's ancestral home. At the same time, don't let other people get close. The evil spirits have strange methods. If there are too many people, there may be unnecessary damage."
“Don’t worry, sir. I know what to do in this matter.”
Liu Captou cupped his fists and accepted the order.
half an hour.
The outer walls of the huge Zhou family's ancestral house have been covered with firewood and poured with a large amount of kerosene.
Liu Capt. Liu stepped forward and said, "Master Xu, everything is ready."
"good!"
Xu Yi nodded, looking solemnly at the door of the Zhou family's ancestral house with the talisman paper in front of him, and suddenly waved his hand.
“Light the fire!”
give an order.
All the government servants holding torches threw the torches into the pile of firewood.
