Taoist Chimei left the palace angrily, with his eyebrows twisted and an expression on his face that he would not let strangers approach him.
The streets of Jiangcheng are supposed to be the busiest during the River God Festival. Even after the River God Festival, they can still be lively for about a month, but now...
There are very few people on the empty streets.
The surrounding streets were filled with white flags announcing mourning, and heart-wrenching cries could be heard in every house. Some people even fell ill directly in the mourning hall.
"The monsters are so rampant that they dare to do such a thing..."
As a member of the Taoist sect, Chimei still felt bursts of anger when she saw such a tragic scene, but then she thought about it, this might be a great opportunity for her to show off her skills in front of the woman in white.
If he can successfully kill the monster and save the people of Jiangcheng, then not only will Prince Le be respectfully grateful to him, but even the woman in white will probably fall in love with him.
"Hahahahaha..."
Thinking of this, Taoist Chimei couldn't help but burst into laughter. He shook his head happily, as if he had saved the people of Jiangcheng and won the heart of the woman in white.
Akame is this person...
Has a conscience, but not much.
But with such a tragedy happening throughout Jiangcheng, where should we start to find the evil evildoer?
Whatever happens, there must be traces.
He must be able to find some clues, Taoist Chimei made up his mind, and then he pinched the Taoist sword with both hands, and his whole body turned into an illusory cloud and soared into the air.
Uh-huh!
Crossing the deserted streets, occasionally landing on the eaves of others, and then flying to another roof. From a distance, it looks like a white rabbit jumping and swinging on the black roof tiles. Body posture.
"No? How could there not even be any evil spirit left..."
Just as I landed on the roof of a certain house, I heard no crying coming from below, and it was very cold.
The clouds fell to the ground, revealing the figure of Taoist Chimei.
He walked up to the coffin. The dark coffin might feel oppressive to others, but to Taoist practitioners like Taoist Chimei, it was really nothing.
Chimei opened her mouth and spat out, and a ball of light fell into her palm. Then, when the light shrank little by little, it turned into a long sword with plum blossoms engraved on it.
He took two steps forward and wanted to open the coffin, but then he thought about it and felt that it was not good for him to disturb the deceased's rest.
"Alas, for the sake of the dawn of life, I can only feel wronged by my brother..."
Taoist Chimei bowed to the coffin.
Then he raised the plum blossom sword with a cold light in his hand, and waved four subtle sword auras towards the four sides of the black coffin.
Click, like a sharp knife cutting tofu.
boom!
The boards around the coffin were cut off by the sword energy, and then fell down due to gravity, hitting the ground with a loud bang.
"Uh, what should I do..."
Chimei looked at the four sides of the coffin that had been cut off, leaving only the upper coffin lid and the lower coffin bottom sandwiching the body in the middle.
There was someone inside the house. After hearing the noise, several people came out one after another. They all stared at the body sandwiched in the coffin with only two wooden boards left. They didn't know what to say for a while.
"Hey, this damn old prince! He actually dares to sell us low-quality coffins. He is really an old bastard who is even greedy for dead people's money..."
How this family searched for a coffin and then went to fight with Shopkeeper Wang of the coffin shop are all trivial matters that I won’t go into too much detail here.
…
"Huh, if anyone knew that I, Chimei, a third-generation disciple of the dignified Taoist sect, actually did such a thing, it wouldn't be a shame..."
Chimei ran quite fast. As soon as he heard the footsteps, he knew something was wrong and immediately escaped in the clouds. Those who were still cursing in the yard never thought that the culprit of all this was actually hiding in the courtyard. Inside a cloud above his head.
After drifting for a while, I deliberately stayed away from the house where the accident happened just now, and found a very clean house.
In other homes, the door should always be open because of funerals, so that it would be more convenient for people to welcome people and send them there. However, the house Chimei found was strange. The door was actually closed.
As before, he first came to the mourning hall where the coffin was parked. Seeing that there was no one inside, he walked in confidently.
First salute the coffin as before. But this time Chimei learned the lesson wisely, and instead of using her extremely sharp plum blossom sword, she pushed the coffin lid with both hands.
If there were other coffins that had already been nailed, he would not be able to push the coffin open without first pulling out the nails or directly cutting them off.
But it was a coincidence that the coffin was not nailed.
Chimei easily pushed open the coffin and saw the body of a man with a thin body and a withered face lying inside. He was wearing a shroud that wasn't too expensive, but he didn't have a treasure buried with him or anything else.
"Ugh, that's a little gross."
The dead body had a withered and haggard face. Because it had been inactive for many days, the blood on its face had lost its color, and its skin was gray-white.
Chimei didn't want to touch the body with her hands, so she could only look at the body for a long time, but she didn't see any useful clues, but she was unwilling to leave without finding anything.
Well, there just happened to be a mourning stick thrown on the floor of the mourning hall.
Chimei picked it up without hesitation, then poked the corpse's body with a slender stick, and even opened his clothes to take a look.
"Why does he seem to have been drained of his yang energy? Could it be that the one causing the trouble is a banshee who specializes in sucking men's essence?"
While analyzing, Chimei dropped the stick in her hand and stepped out of the mourning hall. Just as she was about to find out more about the situation from this family, she heard a strange and charming smile from a woman.
The tender smile was mixed with a cry of pain, but there was also a faint feeling of pleasure in the cry of pain.
"You little slut, how about I feed you well this time? I'm not your husband who died long ago. He's in good health, so is he..."
There were women's coquettish voices and men's laughter in the room.
Um? Are they...
Chimei quietly walked under the window, then squatted down and listened to the two men and women inside who continued to talk.
"You are my dear husband, and I almost feel so happy... Come on, keep going."
"Come back...we haven't gotten out of bed for almost a day. Don't you know you're tired, you slutty bitch?"
"Hmph, didn't you listen to what I said... There are only exhausted cows, there is no plowed land... Are you coming or not? Are you already dying?"
Men can do anything, but they can't say no in that aspect.
"Look, if I don't plow today, I will destroy your fertile paddy field..."
Snapped!
There was a crisp blow, accompanied by the woman's giggle.
"Stop talking nonsense and come quickly..."
"coming!"
Chimei squatted under the window outside, her mouth dry as she listened to the wall, and she actually felt quite disgusted with what she was doing now. She was obviously a third-generation disciple of the Taoist sect, but now she was doing something that was not in line with etiquette.
But no matter how much he struggled in his heart, his legs seemed to have taken root and he couldn't move at all. I don't know how long it took, until the room became quiet, and Chimei under the window climbed out using both hands and feet.
My legs were numb, and my hands started to move around.
Chimei couldn't even use Taoist magic, so she could only open the door of the family, and then run away like a big white goose that had just escaped from the fence.
Gudong.
My throat was very dry, and it took me a long time to secrete some saliva from my mouth, and then I reluctantly swallowed it.
I don't know whether it was because of the rapid running or the excitement she encountered before, but now Chimei is really worthy of her name, and her whole face is as red as a cooked prawn.
Just put a teapot on your head and you can make tea directly.
"Amitabha, form is emptiness, emptiness is form..."
When people are insane, they start talking nonsense. A Taoist priest from a pure Taoist sect began to recite Amitabha. Fortunately, no one saw the scene, otherwise Chimei would have died of shame and anger.
After reciting it seven or eight times in a row, he realized that what he was reciting was a Buddhist sutra, and he had no choice but to stop. He originally missed the Qingxin Mantra and Bingxin Jue passed down by the Taoist ancestors, but he thought about it for a long time and couldn't remember what the first sentence was.
The Qingxin Mantra and the Bingxin Jue are things that young Taoists who have just started to learn must learn to memorize. They can improve their concentration during meditation and get rid of all the distracting thoughts and worries in their hearts.
Chimei hasn't used it for a long time, so long that he has forgotten how to recite the Pure Heart Curse.
call--
He could only calm down his excitement by taking deep breaths for an unknown amount of time. When he raised his head from the corner of the alley, he found that it was already dark.
Chimei thought for a while and realized that she had gained something today. After all, she determined that the monster that killed those people should be a female monster who likes to suck the essence of men.
"You can't tell Prince Le about this, otherwise the monk Fu Kong will know about it. When the time comes to catch the monster, they will take the credit from me."
I made up my mind and was about to leave.
When Chimei's nose moved, he felt a different smell. It was not just evil spirit, but also mixed with other things. Anyway, they were all disgusting smells, so there was no need to distinguish them so clearly.
He rode up the clouds and followed the direction of the strange smell to the sky above a huge courtyard. It was impossible to tell from other angles that this place was strange, but it was clearly visible from above.
Jiangcheng was full of wind and rain, and every household was hanging in mourning. Only the courtyard under his feet still hung a red wedding cloth. It seemed that no one had died...
In other words, the person is completely dead.
Chimei's back felt a little cold. He couldn't see a single living person in Nuo Da's courtyard, not even a dog.
Weird, really weird.
The aura of disgust he felt was hidden in this courtyard, but he couldn't distinguish it carefully, and he didn't dare to go in rashly.
"What on earth happened here... How could such a strange evil be entrenched? I just don't know the reality, otherwise I would just deal with it easily."
While Chimei was watching, an idea suddenly came to her mind.
You said, what if he invites Jiang Qin, a woman in white, to come to this place to slay the demon, and then when the time comes, Jiang Qin loses to the demon, and then he rescues and kills the demon.
"Hey, I don't believe you won't be completely devoted to me..."
The red plum blossoms fell from the clouds and landed just in front of the main entrance of this large courtyard. The two red lanterns at the entrance had burned out their candles long ago and hung dimly under the eaves, occasionally swaying in the wind.
"What's the word on the plaque on the gate? It's dark and I can't see clearly, but it seems to be...the three words Sima Family?"
The black blood slowly penetrated the entire plaque, but Chimei didn't notice it at all.
He laughed a few times, then clapped his palms as if he suddenly understood, pointed at the dark plaque and said:
"Oh, it turns out to be the Nangong family!"
