Ji Qingling, Shen Ru and Ji Qingyuan took people to check the homes of the three missing persons.
When they met again, their faces were solemn. They felt the devil's energy. There was a devil cultivator making trouble here!
From the beginning, they felt that this method was not done by the right way, and was most likely caused by demons or the like.
Ji Qingling frowned, "This should be under the jurisdiction of East Vietnam."
This is the first time Ji Hui has been so close to a demon cultivator, "Should we report it to the sect?"
"Qing Ling and I are Jindan monks. If some minor characters are causing trouble, the sect will probably let us handle it ourselves."
"Senior sister is right. Let's first find out who dares to cause trouble here. Brother, you go back first. Senior sister and I will go look for it. I'll let you know if there is any news."
"Uncle Master, isn't it the mission of a well-known and decent sect to conquer demons? We can also help!"
Shen Ru gave Liang Yu a warning look, and she withdrew again.
Wow, Master Shen is really fierce~
Ji Qingling and Shen Ru began to search the entire city from the south to the north.
Once the mortals in Jiuzhou Continent are invaded by demons and ghosts, the various sects will naturally send people to protect them.
When Ji Qingling's consciousness discovered something strange in a courtyard in the city, he immediately informed Shen Ru.
This demonic cultivator is really arrogant, just a simple restriction, but he is sitting in the room refining weapons!
The other party is a woman in the early stage of foundation building, who is pretty and charming.
At this time, the black demonic energy was flowing from her palm into a mask hanging in front of her.
Shen Ru reminded Ji Qingling, "Be careful. A person who is in the early stages of foundation building dares to go to Dongyue's territory alone?"
Demon cultivators are not tolerated by righteous cultivators, and they hide themselves deeply even when they go out, but this woman's behavior is not normal.
Ji Qingling nodded, "Senior sister, I'm going to ask the government officials about the situation in this courtyard. If anything happens, I'll send a message at any time."
When the leading yamen official understood the courtyard Ji Qingling was asking about, his face couldn't help but tremble.
"The master is asking about the courtyard with the word Qin at the door?"
"Besides the courtyard door is the word Qin Mansion."
Several government officials looked at each other after hearing this, and the leader swallowed his saliva and said with a trembling voice, "Everyone in his family has died long ago!"
Ji Qingling frowned, "Speak clearly."
The man thought carefully before speaking, "It happened more than sixty years ago, when I was not born. I heard from my father that all ten members of the Qin family were quartered overnight, and their deaths were extremely miserable. "
The man shuddered when he said this, as if he had seen it before.
Tong Cheng was puzzled, "Has no one lived there for so many years?"
"It's not impossible. My father was also a government official back then. He said that after the Qin family died, a nephew of that family put the house up for sale in Yahang. It took many years after the sale before it was bought by a family from outside. , who would have known that in less than half a year, all the family members would be killed overnight, and the Qin Mansion sign that had been removed appeared again at the gate of the courtyard!"
Liang Yu asked him, "Didn't the government find any clues?"
The Yamen servant shook his head, "My father said that the family's belongings were all there, so it could only be a vendetta. But they had just moved here from another place, and the family of scholars didn't have a grudge against anyone. After searching for a few days, no clues could be found, so the matter was dismissed. ”
He opened his eyes and said hesitantly, "Because the sign saying Qin Mansion appeared suddenly. People say this house is haunted. The people who died were so unjust and have turned into evil ghosts and are guarding the yard and refusing to leave. The story became more and more true, and now the houses on both sides of the house next door have been moved."
"Did anyone else live there afterwards?"
"No more. If someone goes in, it will feel like a ghost punching a wall, spinning around and then coming out on its own!"
The yamen servant didn't know much, so Ji Qingling asked them to stay in the yard while the others followed her out of the room.
"It would make sense if this was just an ordinary demon cultivator, but sixty years is not right. The woman should not be sixty years old yet!"
"Uncle Master, does she have other elders?"
"My senior sister and I checked, and there was no scent of anyone else except her in the yard."
After Ji Qingling met Shen Ru again, the two decided to take action!
The restrictions in the courtyard were easily destroyed just as they thought.
In the room, Feng Jiao was concentrating on refining her newly acquired magic weapon. This was a gift given to her by her senior brother, and it suited her very well.
In order to advance the magic weapon as soon as possible, she came to the mortal world.
A strong fluctuation of spiritual power shocked Feng Jiao, spiritual power? Monk!
The next moment, when Ji Qingling and Shen Ru broke in, they found that the demon cultivator in the house was missing.
"He was there just now!"
"It disappeared suddenly!"
There must be some hidden formation in the house. It took Ji Qingling a few breaths to find a boy hidden under the round table in the inner room, but the figure of the female demon cultivator was nowhere to be seen.
The hidden formation is not too difficult, just a little clever.
When the boy saw Ji Qingling and the two of them, his big eyes were full of fear. He pursed his lips, his little body was shaking a little, and he didn't dare to make a sound. It was really pitiful.
Shen Ru looked at Ji Qingling, "Are the three people who disappeared yesterday so old?"
"That's the house I went to. My parents were around at the time, but when I woke up, the child was gone."
Ji Qingling turned around and looked at the little boy, "Don't be afraid, you are Zhu Goudan? Can we take you home?"
The boy nodded timidly and then cried, "I want my father, I want my mother~wuwu~wow~wow~"
Neither of them had any experience coaxing a child, so they had to let him cry first and then check the house carefully, but there was still no sign of anyone else.
"Run away? A Foundation Establishment stage demon cultivator ran away under our noses?" Ji Qingling looked in disbelief.
"The cunningness of demonic cultivators cannot be compared to that of us righteous monks. Those guys are bad."
After searching inside and outside the courtyard, they were sure that the demon cultivator had escaped!
"Send this child back first?"
The two elders and the younger one had only taken a few steps when Ji Qingling suddenly shouted, "That's not right!"
The sound was so loud that the child froze in fear.
Shen Ru asked her angrily, "What's your name? If you have something to say, please say it."
Ji Qingling stared at the child and smiled, with a sinister smile. Those who didn't know it thought she was the demon cultivator.
"Zhu Goudan, I'm very curious about how that mask of yours can completely block the demonic energy on your body!"
The child's face changed and he took two steps back.
Shen Ru was already standing behind the boy and asked Ji Qingling, "Are you going to stop acting so soon?"
Ji Qingling pointed in one direction in the yard, "He just looked at the flower bed in the yard."
"so what?"
"Why is the flower bed full of green in a house that has been unoccupied for decades? Looking at other parts of the yard, I don't think that demon cultivator is interested in growing flowers and grass."
