Li Huaiyun slowly opened his palm. Buried in a pile of jade powder was a jade sculpture that resembled a dead tree. Its shape and size were somewhat similar to those he had seen before.
"Sure enough, it is this jade sculpture used to shield the aura that allows Cai Dashi to cover up his own aura without being discovered by the Demon Slayer Division."
Narcissus stood in front of him and gently touched the jade powder in his hand with a look of regret on his face, "Master, are you just grinding this jade into powder? It's such a waste."
"Why do you have such an idea?" Li Huaiyun asked curiously, "What is there about this monster that is worthy of pity?"
Narcissus hurriedly explained, "Master, I'm not pitying the monster, I'm pitying this jade!"
"What's so sad about this?"
"This jade pendant is absolutely extraordinary and valuable!"
"Ah!" Li Huaiyun's heart tightened and he took a breath, damn! I acted too quickly, without thinking about it!
He looked at the pile of white jade powder in his hand, and his heart was bleeding.
Damn it! I should keep this jade pendant, and then find a way to get out the jade carving inside without damaging the main body.
He patted his head regretfully and blamed himself for not thinking it over just now, otherwise he would have made a fortune in vain if he had left the jade pendant!
"Ouch! You should have told me earlier, Narcissus!"
Narcissus turned his head and said, "Master, you only want to show off your abilities!"
Li Huaiyun felt a physical pain in his heart. When he felt regretful, he glanced at the mummy and found something else.
"But, it's okay!" He smiled, squatted down, and took off the ring on Cai Dashi's thumb, "This should be worth a lot of silver!"
"Master, if you take those personal things, will it harm your virtue?"
"How could it be possible? I hired you, a ghost, for free. Wouldn't it be more detrimental to my moral character?"
After a while, the demon hunters who were waiting outside the brothel quickly rushed to the room. They saw the half-skeleton mummy on the ground and the head that fell to the side. They all had shocked looks on their faces. Want to know what happened?
"I'll leave this place to you!" Li Huaiyun said to the demon hunters, "You just need to wait here for a while, and Captain Liu will naturally come back here!"
"I have important things to do."
"Um...," one of the demon hunters called out to Li Huaiyun, "Brother Li, what's going on here!"
"The merchant named Cai Dashi that you are staring at has actually become a monster," Li Huaiyun pointed to the mummy on the ground, "This is his true face."
Another younger demon hunter, who was relatively courageous, looked calm and calm when he saw the mummy and head. He squatted next to the mummy to look at it, and then picked up the blood-stained head with a look of disdain.
"Yo! This separation of heads is quite complete!"
The demon catcher observed it carefully for a moment, then gently touched the wound on his neck with his hand, "It was cut by an extremely sharp knife. The edge of the knife must be quite sharp."
"Yes! A moment of negligence led to Cai Dashi being attacked by a sneak attack! Then the body was separated."
"Ah Ying! Put down that head!" The leader, the relatively older demon hunter, shouted loudly,
He knew that this guy was extremely courageous and didn't take many things seriously, but this made everyone else feel a sigh of relief in their hearts, fearing that something might happen to this guy named Aying.
After all, in this era where demons and ghosts are rampant, everything needs to be treated with the utmost caution.
This is especially true for the monster hunter, but this person never seems to be able to accept a lesson and is straightforward.
"I'm investigating a case! I want to find more clues."
"Then you can start from other places and look for it slowly, you don't have to be so bold!"
The demon hunter named Aying grabbed the hair on his head and said, "Okay! I know!" He was just about to put the head on the ground when he heard that ferocious smile.
Ah Ying let go of his hand alertly, his heart beating violently, there was something wrong with his head!
I saw the head floating up in the air, the corners of the mouth turned up, frowning and glaring, the wrinkles on the face squeezed into deep pits, the sharp laughter echoed in the room, the sound broke the silent night .
Everyone present was sweating in their hearts. This thing before their eyes was so weird that they didn't expect it!
Li Huaiyun raised his head and looked at the head floating in the air. This guy is really not simple!
"Master! What's going on?" Narcissus asked.
"I don't know! Someone may be manipulating it!" He bypassed the revelation, came to the window, and looked around the dark surroundings.
His first impression was that he could control the Taoist Yin Technique of the dead body!
He used his aura technique to look down the dark roads and houses, but found nothing else.
Aying took out the ghost-headed sword with a cold glow from his back, "Monster, don't make trouble!" He kicked the ground hard with one leg and quickly approached the head.
The sharp blade cut out light and shadow in the air, and the friction with the air produced a whistling sound. The sword technique was fierce and powerful, and the blades struck at the head in the air in bursts.
One knife after another, dizzying.
But what's even more surprising is that under such a heavy and tight knife formation, the head was unscathed, without even basic dodge.
Those tyrannical knives, the moment they hit the head, the rescue was in vain.
Just as the most majestic knife struck the head, in an instant, the head flew towards the beams and disappeared into the darkness.
"Be careful, this head is probably looking for an opportunity to leave this house."
Li Huaiyun shouted loudly and immediately closed the window door.
He lowered his body and spread his energy on his arms.
When everyone was looking for the head again, Ah Ying suddenly felt a sharp pain. He turned his head and found that the side of his shoulder had been bitten by the big mouth on the head.
The severe pain made Ah Ying scream. He changed the ghost head sword to his other hand and struck directly at the head biting his shoulder.
But no matter how he patted it, it was useless, the head still bit his shoulder.
When everyone saw this, they didn't dare to step forward. At this time, only Li Huaiyun ran forward without hesitation.
The reason why Li Huaiyun rushed over was because he saw a large amount of black hair at the fracture of the head. It was stabbing into Aying's arm continuously.
If it can't be stopped in time, this young man will probably be parasitized.
He raised his fist, like playing volleyball, and hit the head against the wall with a bang.
A Ying's brocade clothes had been bitten open at the shoulders, and there was a big hole in the shoulders, and the teeth marks were deep into the muscles.
At this time, the muscle on Ah Ying's shoulder had basically been bitten into a blue color, and it seemed that corpse poison was constantly entering from the wound.
A Ying couldn't hold on anymore and knelt on the ground. Sweat slowly flowed into his body, making his body feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Hurry! Come quickly to find Nuomi! There is corpse poison in this. If you wait too long, his entire arm will be destroyed." Li Huaiyun shouted loudly,
At this time, someone immediately left the room and hurried to find what Li Huaiyun was talking about.
Li Huaiyun stood in front of Ah Ying. He activated his true energy and re-injected it into his arm, so that the true energy could dissipate the corpse poison in his body.
Several other demon hunters worked together and used Taoism to control the head.
"What kind of monster is this? The body has been separated, but it can still be so aggressive!"
Ah Ying held her arm tightly, "I was careless, I should have been more careful!"
"No one thought that a head would have such abilities."
After some time, Captain Liu also returned to the room. When he saw the scene inside, he was a little surprised.
"How is this going?"
"We were attacked by this mummy! This young man was bitten on the head. He was poisoned by corpse poison!"
Ah Ying saw Captain Liu and lowered his head in shame, "Master, I was careless! I was attacked by this head."
"There is no need to blame yourself. The monsters nowadays are becoming more and more terrifying and quite difficult to deal with. This is your first time and you are inexperienced. Something will happen to you. Just remember it in the future."
"yes!"
At this moment, Nuomi has been brought, and with the combined efforts of everyone, the corpse poison on the body of the young man named Aying has been almost dispelled.
Li Huaiyun said hello and explained his situation to Captain Liu in detail.
"Your next step is to go to Cai Dadi's home?"
"Yes! This guy was killed by the man in black robes without saying anything. Therefore, we can only use the remaining clues to investigate. This guy just died not long ago, and we have to go to his home to investigate the situation. , otherwise, I'm afraid that the man in black robe will go first and destroy all the relevant evidence."
When Liu Pingzhong heard this, he immediately pointed to the gate, "Then don't waste time, go quickly! I will lead the way."
"Brothers, I'll leave this to you. I'm going to go to the site with someone to conduct an investigation."
"Okay! Captain!"
Under the pitch-black night sky, the entire Kyoto fell into silence. The night was like a huge night curtain, covering the city.
Li Huaiyun and Liu Pingzhong kept running forward on the roof of the house, hoping to get to Cai Dashi's house as soon as possible
"The monsters this time are different!" Li Huaiyun said, "It feels like this danger has become very common."
Liu Pingzhong frowned in thought, and slowly said, "One more thing, as the investigation of the case deepens, these monsters are even more invisible!"
"I hope we can find the place where the body was buried as soon as possible! Otherwise, the ghost bride will keep harming people on the street."
"Um!"
They came to Cai Dashi's house. Because of the sudden incident, the people from the Ministry of Punishment had not yet sealed off the entire Cai Dashi's house.
The two stood on a nearby roof and carefully searched for the location where Cai Dashi lived.
In Cai Mansion, there were several teams of guards carrying lanterns and patrolling inside.
"I can't believe that there are so many guards in this guy's house. It seems that there must be a lot of secrets inside!"
Liu Pingzhong showed a faint smile, "I think so too!"
"Let's go! Get in quickly!"
Just when they were about to jump into Cai's mansion, Li Huaiyun caught Liu Pingzhong in time, and the two squatted down, "Wait a minute! There's something going on."
At this time, in a small alley next to Cai Mansion, a figure appeared there. This figure seemed to have been seen there before.
However, because the night was pitch dark, I couldn't see the full figure at all. I could only vaguely see the figure wearing a hood, with half of his face exposed. However, through the outline, I could be sure that the face was anything but normal. Humanity.
"Sure enough, this guy has some special relationship with monsters."
Liu Pingzhong took out his stylus and drew a few strokes in the air. The ink became a worm, injected with his spiritual power, and flew directly towards the monster wearing a robe and a hood, and followed the monster away.
"I asked the bug to follow him. Then we will know where this monster is hiding."
"Why don't you just let the monster hunter follow you!"
Liu Pingzhong shook his head, "No, these monsters are quite cunning. At the same time, they have sensitive senses. They will be easily discovered if someone is chasing them."
