But I didn’t dare to show it at the moment.
When Chen Yuan had a confrontation with the old blood demon before, he, like Yan Kai, paid some attention to them and saw how terrifying that confrontation was.
Knowing that Chen Yuan was many times stronger than him, he still felt a little unwilling.
He ignored Sun Yuan's obstruction and went to the government office before, just to get rid of these bandits and add something to his resume, but now... the bandit leader escaped.
"I want you to teach me how to do something?"
Chen Yuan's expression moved slightly, and his gaze fell on Zhang Hefeng, which made him feel a chill in his heart, and he quickly explained:
"No... no, Inspector Chen, I am just..."
Zhang Hefeng opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but found something he couldn't express.
"Do you know who this person is?"
Chen Yuan pointed to the headless body on the ground.
"No...I don't know."
Zhang Hefeng shook his head slightly. Although he had some impressions of the white-haired old man before, he could not figure out his identity in a short time. After all, the old blood demon had disappeared in Qingzhou for several years.
"I don't know, then I will tell you that this person is the old man who was a notorious criminal, the Blood Demon." Chen Yuan said calmly.
He killed the old blood demon in full public view, and it was impossible to hide it. Of course, Chen Yuan didn't have much interest in hiding it, so he just revealed his true nature.
Let Zhang Hefeng know the importance of this person.
Of course, as Chen Yuan said, the old man Blood Demon was indeed a wanted criminal in Qingzhou, but because he disappeared, most people forgot about him.
But Chen Yuan knew that he had investigated the old man Blood Demon before.
"Blood Demon...Old Blood Demon!"
Zhang Hefeng's eyes widened and his pupils shrank.
He used to be from the government office, but he was transferred to Qingshui County later. Of course, he had heard of the evil name of the old blood demon, but he didn't expect that this person was the one.
And he also understood the implication of Chen Yuan's words, that is, the old blood demon is not so easy to kill. Do you really think that he, Chen Yuan, is invincible?
Moreover, the achievement of killing the old blood demon is no weaker than destroying a bandit village.
"But...those bandits."
Zhang Hefeng's eyes were a little hesitant. If these bandits were allowed to run away, if they caused trouble within the county, it would be his fault.
"Don't worry, County Lieutenant Zhang. It's just a small bandit. What kind of trouble can it cause?" Chen Yuan's mouth curled up slightly as he watched Yan Kai's retreating figure.
By hunting down these bandits, he would have a reason to stay in Qingshui County for a while to investigate the location of the Xuanyang Divine Crystal without arousing suspicion.
It is even possible to find a breakthrough through these people.
These were all planned in his mind from the moment he got the guidance information.
Yan Kai, it’s still useful!
As soon as Yan Kai left, the remaining bandits had almost no belief in resisting, and of course they did not have the strength to resist. The two ghost boys brought by the old man Blood Demon were also successfully captured by Mo Donghe and others, tied up and thrown away Waiting for disposal in front of Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan looked intently at the two trembling ghost boys in front of him without saying anything. The green demon he met at the beginning did bring him some trouble.
But to him now, two ghost boys really are nothing.
You can suppress it with a flip of your hand.
"Chen...Master Chen."
The two ghost boys raised their heads and glanced at Chen Yuan's calm gaze. For some reason, there was always a look of inexplicable fear, as if a mouse had encountered a cat-like natural enemy.
"What are your names?"
Chen Yuan asked in a deep voice.
Seeing that Chen Yuan seemed to want to ask something, Zhang Hefeng's mouth twitched slightly, but in the end he was wise enough not to say anything, and turned to deal with the other bandits who had surrendered.
Mo Donghe and others also looked at each other and stayed away in a tacit understanding.
"Little man ghost gold."
"Little will-o'-the-wisp."
The two ghost boys did not dare to hide it and immediately reported their family status.
"Fire...gold..." Chen Yuan's eyes flashed.
Xu Shi saw the confusion in Chen Yuan's eyes, and Gui Jintongzi quickly explained:
"Master Qi, I'll wait..."
From the ghost boy's story, Chen Yuan learned that there were five of them, each named after the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
The green demon Chen Yuan killed before was Guimudongzi.
They were part of the blood demon old man's practice, and they were preparing to use them to enter the realm of Tongxuan. This made Chen Yuan a little interested, and he immediately touched the body of the blood demon old man.
Unfortunately, apart from some evil secret techniques and practice resources, there was no information on how to use the Five Ghost Boys to break through, which made Chen Yuan slightly unhappy.
As for the ghost boys, they don't know how to do it.
The old man Blood Demon still did a good job of keeping secret.
"Who leaked my traces to the Blood Demon?"
Chen Yuan looked at the two of them and asked.
Ghost Golden Boy glanced at Ghost Fire and whispered:
"It's Tang Qian from the Qingjiao Society."
'Sure enough it's him! '
Chen Yuan's eyes flashed, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"You two are very sensible. I'll give you a treat." Chen Yuan raised his hand and a black evil aura enveloped his palm, which recovered after a moment.
Now Chen Yuan's internal Dantian has recovered a lot.
"Inspector Chen, the two of us are willing to be driven by you, and we hope that you will spare our lives."
The ghost boy swallowed his saliva and quickly lowered his head to beg for mercy.
The same goes for Will-O-Wisp Doji.
"I can't trust you."
Chen Yuan looked at the two of them with his lips moving slightly, wondering what else he could say.
Guijintongzi gritted his teeth, knowing that if he didn't say something that satisfied Chen Yuan, he would definitely be dead, and then he told his biggest secret:
"The Blood Demon has the evil secret method to control us, and can easily control our lives. Now that the Blood Demon is dead, we can all recognize him as his master..."
In the face of death, Guijin Tongzi and Guihuo Tongzi were completely willing to risk their lives, telling Chen Yuan that they could control their lives through secret techniques.
And as long as they gather the five ghosts together, they can use the formation to greatly enhance their own strength, and can even use bone refining to become a solid warrior.
But they currently only have four ghosts, and the other two ghost boys are still in Tang Qian's hands.
In addition, Chen Yuan needed to cultivate a ghost boy again, which made Chen Yuan frown slightly and felt that it was a bit troublesome. By the time he became a ghost boy, he would have already broken through to a higher level and would not be able to use their combat power at all.
In this regard, Onimudongji said that as long as enough people are killed and several people cooperate to assist, the time required to refine Onimudongzi can be greatly shortened.
In fact, he had already found the candidate for Oniki Doji.
It's just that they were worried that the old blood demon might risk their lives to break through, so they never dared to speak out.
After hearing this, Chen Yuan was slightly surprised and thought that these ghost boys were not stupid. Although they had to obey the orders of the old blood demon, they also had some small thoughts of their own.
Chen Yuan found out the method of controlling the five ghosts from the body of the old blood demon. It was a copper bell the size of a baby's fist, which contained the painstaking efforts of several ghost boys.
As long as Chen Yuan sheds his blood and recognizes his master, and then assists with the secret method, he can easily make the lives of several ghost boys worse than death.
After weighing a few breaths of time, Chen Yuan decided to accept a few of them. Anyway, he already had the Four Ghosts of Yunjiang, and he was not afraid of a few more people for him to drive.
He has seen how powerful Ghost Boy is, and has few opponents at the same level. If he steps into the Qi level in the future, he might be able to really help him.
Of course, this is definitely not the case on the surface.
Under Chen Yuan's instructions, the two ghost boys were secretly taken into custody by Nie Donghe and others. Once they left Qingshui County, they would find an opportunity to release them.
Just publicize that they are dead and that's it.
Zhang Hefeng wanted to be imprisoned in prison, but after looking at Chen Yuan's face, he finally gave up the idea.
After counting the casualties, Zhang Hefeng and Chen Yuan began to press the bandits down the mountain and drove their horses forward. Chen Yuan looked at Zhang Hefeng and said:
"Lieutenant Zhang County."
Turning to look at Chen Yuan, Zhang Hefeng was a little confused, but he still cupped his hands and said:
"What's wrong with Inspector Chen?"
"Does Lieutenant Zhang know Chiyang Mountain?"
Without too much pretense, Chen Yuan asked directly. However, to his expectation, Zhang Hefeng's originally calm face suddenly shrank when he heard the words 'Chiyang Mountain'.
He seemed shocked that Chen Yuan knew about Chiyang Mountain.
"How did Inspector Chen know about Chiyang Mountain?" Zhang Hefeng's mind was spinning wildly.
"Lieutenant Zhang has not yet answered Chen's words."
After some hesitation, Zhang Hefeng nodded: "I know."
"Where is this place?"
Seeing the shocked look on Zhang Hefeng's face, Chen Yuan knew that this Chiyang Mountain seemed very complicated.
"Why... why did Inspector Chen ask this question?" Zhang Hefeng asked.
"I've heard this name and I'm a little curious." Chen Yuan smiled pretending to be mysterious.
"Could it be that the people from the Tianxuan Division already know about Chiyang Mountain?" Zhang Hefeng immediately lost his composure.
Chen Yuan smiled and did not explain.
"Inspector Chen Mingjian, my official..."
"Just say what County Lieutenant Zhang has to say, don't make any mistakes." Chen Yuan now suspected that there was something wrong with Chiyang Mountain, and Zhang Hefeng seemed to know it very well, but he didn't want to say it out.
In this case, you can only cheat.
After looking around for a while, Zhang Hefeng relaxed and relaxed his brows, and finally approached Chen Yuan and whispered:
"This is related to County Magistrate Sun."
"continue..."
"This place was originally an abandoned red sunstone vein from the previous dynasty, but traces of red sunstone were discovered here a year ago. The quality is extremely high, and it is a good material for refining weapons.
Under the control of Magistrate Sun. "
Zhang Hefeng lowered his voice and said.
"Didn't County Lieutenant Zhang get involved?" Chen Yuan looked at Zhang Hefeng with a half-smile.
He could feel from his expression just now that Zhang Hefeng also knew this, and he knew it in quite detail.
"I am dedicated to serving the people and have never thought about this matter. As for these things, someone informed me through a secret letter not long ago. After investigation, it is indeed true.
Sun Yuan made huge profits from this, and secretly controlled the people to mine for him..."
