Qin Shaoyou, who was holding a basin to catch the blood, suddenly remembered something very important and hurriedly turned around and asked Shan Daonian:
"Miracle doctor, can the poison in these demons be cured?"
Shan Daonian could not understand his intention of asking about this matter, so he quickly replied: "Don't worry, sir, it can be resolved and it will not have any adverse effects on the eater."
"That's good."
Qin Shaoyou was relieved.
After fixing the basin for collecting blood, he took out a handful of salt and sprinkled it into the basin.
This is done to allow the blood of the hawk demon to be collected in the basin to solidify and turn into blood tofu.
Then Qin Shaoyou stopped caring about this matter and did not stay here. Instead, he picked up a knife and hammer and attacked other monsters and ghosts around him.
Before these demons could escape the influence of the magic beads, Qin Shaoyou, Cui Yougui, Zhu Xiucai and Shan Daonian, along with several night watchmen, killed them all.
These monsters are much worse than Zhang Huaimin.
Zhang Huaimin just fell asleep in the middle of the night and was woken up by Su Shi. He said, "Huaimin hasn't gone to bed either."
But these demons and ghosts didn't even have a chance to wake up. In their fantasy dreams, they were killed by Qin Shaoyou and others.
With a group of sixth- and seventh-level demons and ghosts being eliminated, the remaining demons and ghosts are no longer to be feared.
Qin Shaoyou immediately made arrangements based on the new situation, asking Zhu Xiucai and Cui Yougui to join their respective subordinates and lead the team to launch the final elimination of the remaining demons and ghosts in the ghost market.
Of course Qin Shaoyou himself was not idle either.
Although the sixth- and seventh-level demons and ghosts had been eliminated, he was not in a hurry to clean up the battlefield and collect ingredients. Instead, he held the demon-suppressing hammer in his left hand and the demon-slaying knife in his right hand, and also launched an encirclement and suppression of the demons and ghosts.
The kind of encirclement and suppression in which one person chases a group of demons and kills them...
During this process, there were also some smart and cautious demons who noticed something was wrong.
Not only did they not participate in the fighting, but they also wanted to leave the ghost market and escape the chaos and fighting.
Their choice was right, but it was a pity that they were already in deep trouble and could not escape at all.
Because around the ghost market, Sun Xianzong, Monk Ma and their men had already set up a 'dragon net' specially used by the Demon Suppression Department to contain demons and ghosts.
If they are sixth-grade monsters and ghosts, this dragnet will naturally not be able to trap them.
But now, all the sixth-grade demons and ghosts have been killed by Qin Shaoyou and the others, and the seventh-grade demons and ghosts have almost been wiped out.
These demons and ghosts who want to escape are not strong enough. No matter they are on the ground or in the sky or underground, there is no way to break through the dragnet of the Demon Suppression Department.
In the end, they were either blocked by the dragnet, or they triggered the traps set by Monk Ma, Sun Xianzong and others, or they were tied into demon rice dumplings with ink thread soaked in cinnabar, or they were directly strangled by the agencies. Lost his life.
When the morning star appeared in the eastern night sky, the battle entered its final stage.
Qin Shaoyou put away the seal of the mirage long before the overall situation was decided.
Because at this time, the existence of thick fog will not only not be able to help the night watchers, but will also interfere with their search and elimination of the remaining ghosts.
Without Qin Shaoyou's instructions, the night watchman took the initiative to allocate a part of his staff to clean the battlefield and collect the flesh, blood and bones of demons and ghosts.
They have followed Qin Shaoyou for so long, how could they not know the value and taste of these things?
Tonight, they fought desperately, not only to fulfill their duties as night watchmen to protect the country and the people, but also to buy more goods and eat more delicious ghost food.
Therefore, these night watchmen cleaning the battlefield, looking at the corpses of monsters and ghosts all over the ground, not only did not feel tired, but they were also very happy, and even hummed a cheerful ditty.
Of course, they occasionally frown and look unhappy.
For example, at this moment, a night watchman found a nest of rabbit demons whose heads were smashed, and he couldn't help but darken his face and complained:
"Who did this? The work was too rough, wasn't it? A whole nest of rabbit demons had their heads smashed like this? Doesn't he know how delicious this rabbit's head is? If you let me know who killed this nest of rabbit monsters, I will give him a good scolding."
The companion who was collecting the flesh and blood of monsters and ghosts nearby heard him complain, took a look, and said: "This nest of rabbit monsters, I remember it was Ma Xiaoqi who killed it. Yes, it was him. I saw it clearly from the side at the time. He smashed it with a war hammer while saying that a family must be neat and tidy. He is a good person and will do his best to help reunite this family of rabbit demons."
"Ma Xiaoqi?"
The complaining night watchman couldn't help but shudder, and said with a dry smile: "Since it was Ma Xiaoqi who killed this nest of rabbit demons, there must be a reason for him to smash the heads of these rabbit demons, haha..."
Immediately afterwards, he looked at another demon not far away who was smashed by the waist and his internal organs were scattered all over the floor. After swallowing, he asked cautiously: "That demon was also killed by Ma Xiaoqi's hammer?"
The companion looked up, shook his head and said, "That's not it."
The night watchman's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was about to say a few harsh words of criticism, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly held back and asked cautiously again: "Then do you know who killed him? "
"I know, it was us adults who hammered him to death." His companion replied.
A few drops of cold sweat were visible on the night watchman's forehead.
He was glad that he had been cautious and finally made no mistakes. At the same time, he did not dare to complain or comment any more, and he buried his head in collecting and carrying the ingredients honestly.
Unlike the cheerful night watchmen, the residents living nearby were not in such a good mood.
That night, they were first robbed of a wave of yang energy and vitality because of the appearance of the ghost market. Although they were fine for the time being, those who were not in good health or angry enough would probably get sick later.
And when Qin Shaoyou led the night watchmen to fight with the demons, the shrill and terrifying howls of demons not only woke up the people nearby, but also scared them to death.
Not to mention going out to see what happened, they didn't even have the courage to get close to the window and take a look outside.
I was afraid that with this glance, I would find an eye looking into the room outside the window, staring at them.
The same kind of eyes that are constantly bleeding and carrying a sinister smile.
So the people nearby could only move things from their homes, block the doors and windows, then hug each other and tremble, praying to the gods and Buddhas in the sky in their hearts, never let the demons and ghosts outside enter their homes. Come.
At the same time, they are still looking forward to dawn soon.
At least after dawn, these monsters can calm down and no longer dare to make such unscrupulous noises as now.
And when the battle ended and the howling ghosts outside stopped, the people nearby were still terrified.
Although they kept guessing, they still didn't dare to check what was going on outside.
There were some stubborn people in the past...but now, the grass on their graves is ten feet high.
Just when the people were worried and speculating, they suddenly heard the sound of gongs and bangs coming from outside the house.
Another person was shouting loudly: "The night watchman is catching monsters. People don't need to panic. Now all the monsters have been killed. Everyone can rest peacefully, but they still have to abide by the curfew and wait until dawn before going out on the streets..."
"The night watchman catches monsters?"
Many people were surprised when they heard this sentence.
Yes, a group of night watchmen did come a few days ago, but after they arrived, strange things continued in Mianyuan County at night.
So much so that everyone was complaining, saying that this was a team of idle officials.
Unexpectedly, this group of officials from the Demon Suppression Division actually got into trouble tonight.
And once he did it, he started such a big battle.
Listening to the howls and screams of the demons before, how many demons and ghosts must have been captured and killed by these night watchmen of the Demon Suppression Division?
Are they that powerful?
The people hiding in the house did not feel relieved because of the 'Notice of peace and security' shouted by the night watchman outside.
On the contrary, many of them even suspected that this was a demon pretending to be a night watchman, trying to trick them into opening windows and doors to explore the situation, and then catch them and eat them?
But at the same time, they prayed in their hearts, hoping that this was true.
Because during this period, the nights in Mianyuan County are too dangerous. As soon as it gets dark, there will definitely be ghosts and ghosts, and someone will definitely suffer.
So much so that in these days, no one dares to walk on the streets at night, even if it is not curfew time yet.
Even the business of places like Sand Dance Hall has been greatly affected, forcing many dancers to change careers or remarry...
It would be really great if the new group of night watchmen from the Demon Suppression Department could really catch and kill demons and bring peace to Mianyuan County at night!
Qin Shaoyou didn't know what the people nearby were thinking.
At this moment, he was standing by the well, waiting for Cui Youying to go down into the well and fish out the mysterious man from the well.
Cui Yougui volunteered to go down.
It wasn't that he wanted to earn performance, but that he had originally planned to go down to the well to check the situation.
Take a look at how the Yin Qi in the well flows, and what kind of layout Feng Shui has.
Only by mastering this information can he be more confident in setting up a magic circle to seal the Yin Qi at the bottom of the well and prevent similar things from happening again.
Cui Yougui didn't want to mess this up, as it would make him lose face.
The well is not very wide, but it is enough for a person to lie half inside.
Because of the previous drought, even though it rained a few times, there was still no water in the well, but there was a lot of silt.
After Cui Yougui jumped to the bottom of the well, he found that the man at the bottom of the well was lying on his side, with his head leaning against the wall of the well. Only then did he avoid being suffocated to death by the mud at the bottom of the well that covered his mouth and nose.
Cui Youwei first called the man several times, but when he saw no response, he checked his situation again and frowned.
At this time, the night watchman on the well lowered the rope.
Brother Cui tied a rope to the man's body and asked the night watchman on the well to drag him up.
Cui Yougui himself stayed at the bottom of the well, took out a Feng Shui compass from his arms, and began to observe and study it.
At the mouth of the well, several night watchmen worked together to quickly lift the unidentified man up, and then dragged him out of the well with all their hands.
Qin Shaoyou stepped forward and took a look. Just as Zhu Xiucai said, this man was breathing and heartbeating, but he was unconscious - everyone was dragging and shouting, but he had no response.
Shan Daonian came over to diagnose and treat this man, but still could not revive him.
Even Qin Shaoyou took out the Awakening Golden Needle and pricked him, but his body only reacted with pain, but he did not wake up.
This situation is really weird.
So Qin Shaoyou came to the wellhead and looked at Cui Youyou at the bottom of the well to see if he knew the reason.
"How could I not know?"
Cui Youyou, who was at the bottom of the well, raised his head and replied: "The man's current condition is equivalent to a living dead. I just checked and found that his three souls are no longer there and only seven souls are left in his body. Although there is still breath left, But he has no consciousness, and is no different from dead. Unless his lost three souls can be recovered, even if he uses up all the medicine, stones, spells and even supernatural items, he cannot be awakened. Even his body will still be affected by the seven souls. Make trouble and your body will turn into a corpse."
Qin Shaoyou frowned slightly.
Although people are alive, they have no consciousness... isn't this a vegetative state?
I don’t know how many days this person has been missing since he lost his three souls? During this period of time, how did he survive without eating or drinking?
And his identity, who exactly could he be?
Since there is no way to wake this person up and ask these questions, Qin Shaoyou can only start with him.
He called Zhu Xiucai over and searched the man to see if he could find anything that could confirm his identity.
However, apart from a pair of relatively valuable clothes, only one scroll was found on this man's body.
There are no other official, body, road, etc. that can prove his identity.
Qin Shaoyou took the scroll presented by Zhu Xiucai, flipped through it, and found that the scroll was full of copied famous works of sages.
The "Song of Righteousness" that Haoguang transformed before was an article copied from this volume.
The words in the scroll are all vigorous and powerful, and you can feel a sense of awe and righteousness coming from just reading them.
There is no doubt that this volume, like the records of famous Confucian scholars that Zhu Xiucai regarded as a treasure, was written by Confucian masters.
It is even very possible that this person who lost his three souls wrote it himself.
Because Qin Shaoyou saw reading notes written in small characters in the blank space next to the page.
Judging from the handwriting, it is generally the same as the original text copied in the scroll.
"Is this man a Confucian master? But why did he lose his three souls, and why did he appear in this well?"
Qin Shaoyou held the scroll and frowned slightly.
The yin energy in the well comes from the fusang ghost tree.
So, are the three lost souls of this person also related to the Fuso Ghost Tree?
A Confucian master related to the Fuso Ghost Tree...
A person suddenly flashed through Qin Shaoyou's mind.
"Could it be that...he is the missing patrol censor, Liu Shuyuan?"
