Lu Zheng didn't expect to meet Taoist Priest Jiuzhen and his young disciple here.
"Fengyang Mountain Jiuzhen, I have met fellow Taoist!"
"Baiyun Guan Mingzhang, I have met fellow Taoist!"
"Why is the Taoist Master here?" Lu Zheng couldn't help but ask. Didn't they want to go back to Fengyang Mountain? How come so many days had passed before they reached Tonglin County?
Taoist Priest Jiuzhen said, "My disciple and I met another cat demon who came from southern Xinjiang to cause trouble. After a few days of delay, we arrived at Kakuda Town this afternoon. After hearing about what happened here, we came over to take a look.
look."
"Have you discovered anything?" Taoist Master Mingzhang asked.
Taoist Priest Jiuzhen shook his head and said, "The foreign object has left, and there is only an empty tomb."
"Who is this thing?" Taoist Master Mingzhang asked.
"Judging from the interior of the tomb, it should be an official from the previous dynasty." Chief Li stepped forward and answered.
Taoist priest Mingzhang was shocked when he heard this, "The previous dynasty? That must have been more than six hundred years ago!"
"Exactly." Taoist Master Jiuzhen nodded, "So the Taoist conduct of this thing should be quite profound."
The faces of Capt. Liu and Chief Li both looked ugly.
Early this morning, the county magistrate heard about the report from Kakuda Town, so he sent Capt. Liu and Chief Li to investigate.
Liu Captou was a martial artist, and he brought with him some talismans and magic weapons issued by the imperial court, which were enough to deal with ordinary foreign objects.
Mr. Li is a well-informed official, so he can investigate the ins and outs of this tomb, and then write a document and report it.
When the two came to Kakuda Town, they happened to meet Taoist Master Jiuzhen's master and apprentice who were coming to join in the fun, so they joined forces and headed to the tomb together.
Seeing that there were officials and strangers here, a dozen or so daring common people also followed from a distance, wanting to see something strange and to brag about it later.
It wasn't until Taoist Priest Jiuzhen, Taoist Liu and others walked into the tomb that they found nothing. When they came out, Taoist Lu Zheng and Taoist Mingzhang also arrived.
"Two Taoist priests, this thing won't cause trouble in Tonglin County. Do I have to report it to Yizhou Town's Yi Department immediately?" Liu Captou asked in a deep voice.
Taoist priest Jiuzhen looked at Taoist priest Mingzhang. Baiyunguan was the landowner of Tonglin County, so he should naturally answer.
"Let me search and see if I can find any trace of the zombie." Taoist Master Mingzhang said, then he twisted a magic trick in his hand and used the Qi Observation Technique.
He grabbed the Yin Qi from the cave, blended it into the condensed cloud Qi in his hand, and floated back and forth in the air with the seal in his hand.
Taoist Master Mingzhang pondered for a moment...
"I didn't find it. The other party has completely restrained his aura. He is indeed profound."
Taoist Master Mingzhang shook his head, turned to Capt. Liu and said, "Now we don't know the intentions of this zombie from the previous dynasty. Pindao will continue to investigate. To be on the safe side, the captivity should report it to the Yiyi Suppression Department."
Be prepared."
"Okay!" Mr. Liu responded with cupped fists, "If you guys don't go in again, I will ask people to seal this tomb."
"Don't ban it yet. What if the zombie comes back again?" Taoist Master Mingzhang stopped him.
"Fellow Taoist said this foreign object is a zombie? How did fellow Taoist know what happened here?" Taoist Priest Jiuzhen asked.
Then Lu Zheng told how Yuan Jing was injured here and then returned to Baiyun Temple with force.
"I see!"
Taoist Priest Jiuzhen nodded and said, "This zombie has profound Taoist practices. If he really wants to cause trouble, he can massacre the village and destroy the town in one day."
Taoist Master Mingzhang also frowned, "And he even left the tomb. Aren't zombies generally not leaving their tombs?"
Taoist Priest Jiuzhen said, "Maybe those tomb robbers stole something from him?
Maybe it was because he couldn't move when he was woken up yesterday, or couldn't see the sun?
Just after recovering last night, you immediately chased him out?"
"But we yesterday..." Lu Zheng stopped after saying one sentence. Obviously, although they found three dead people, it does not mean that there were only three gold thieves.
Taoist Master Mingzhang said to Capt. Liu, "Please Capt. Spread out his men and go to the county towns, just in case."
"good!"
Taoist Master Mingzhang pondered, "The zombie went out last night and disappeared for a whole day. It's dark again today, and there's no way it will show any trace. How about we go to several surrounding towns and villages to investigate?"
Taoist Priest Jiuzhen nodded, "That's how it should be."
Lu Zheng glanced at Liu Ning and said, "Shall I send little brother Liu to my house first?"
"I will follow Master!" Liu Ning said.
"Obey, Master said I have to go to a lot of places today, so I can't take care of you."
So Taoist Priest Mingzhang and Taoist Priest Jiuzhen separated into several places. Lu Zheng said that he would come to help after sending Liu Ning home.
…
All the way back to Tonglin County, just after sending Liu Ning home and asking Uncle Li to arrange a side room for him to stay, Yan Hongxia and Liu Qingyan came.
"Brother Lu, is there any trace of the zombie?" Yan Hongxia asked.
"How did you know?" Lu Zheng asked in surprise.
Liu Qingyan answered, "After we came out of Yuling Garden, we heard the policeman patrolling the street saying that Capt. Liu was ordered to leave with many people. When he came back, he saw that you were not there, so we made some guesses.
"
Lu Zheng nodded, then shook his head, "I found his tomb, but I didn't find him."
Lu Zheng told what happened today, and Yan Hongxia immediately said, "Count me in!"
Before Liu Qingyan could speak, Lu Zheng interrupted her, "Qingyan, you stay in the county. If anything happens, go to Baiyun Temple to find my senior brother."
"oh."
Liu Qingyan nodded and did not insist, but secretly made up her mind to practice more after practicing medical consultation in the future.
…
Lu Zheng and Yan Hongxia left the city overnight, divided up the remaining villages and towns, and then went their separate ways.
…
The sky is getting brighter...
When Lu Zheng returned to Kakuda Town, he found that Taoist priests Mingzhang, Jiuzhen and Yan Hongxia had all returned.
"You didn't notice it either?"
"I didn't find it." Lu Zheng appeared, knowing that Yan Hongxia and the two Taoist priests must have already said hello.
"Could it be that you have already left Tonglin County?"
"Or go to the Yin-Yang Road, tear the two worlds apart, and enter the Netherworld?"
"No matter what, it's always a good thing if there are no traces of zombies causing trouble." Taoist Master Mingzhang said.
"Yes, if there is no movement after another two days, then it should be fine." Taoist Priest Jiuzhen nodded and said.
Taoist Master Mingzhang said, "Then Taoist fellow Taoist, you might as well go to my Baiyun Temple to stay for a few days."
"It's so disturbing." Taoist priest Jiuzhen was not polite.
After a good discussion, they went to Tonglin County to pick up Liu Ning.
But just after returning home, Lu Zheng found that Guangyue was already waiting at his home.
"Master Guangyue?"
Guang Yue stood up and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, there is a zombie that captured nine boys in Pingtan County, broke into the secret realm of Jiming Temple, and sealed the secret realm from the inside. I can't break it, so I'm asking for help."
