In Mianyuan County, there were constant cries of murder and ghost howls.
The demons and night watchmen started fighting in many places, which caused the residents in the county to close their doors tightly and block the doors and windows with objects for fear of being affected.
But this did not affect the black-robed monk and his attendants.
At this moment, the group of black-robed monks were next to the well where Qin Shaoyou discovered Liu Shuyuan.
And in this street, not far away, a group of night watchmen were surrounding and suppressing several vixens.
These vixens were beaten black and blue, trying to confuse the night watchmen with their colors.
It is a pity that the flag officer leading this night watchman is Monk Ma instead of Zhu Xiucai.
Faced with the temptation of the vixen, Monk Ma remained unmoved. He clasped one palm in front of his chest and recited: "No self, no human being, no sentient being, no lifespan, red skull, white bones, skin and flesh..."
Then he glared suddenly, raised his hand and hit the vixen with his war hammer in front of him with his legs and arms outstretched: "You guys also want to mess with my mood? Follow my orders and work with me to save these vixens!"
The night watchmen under Monk Ma have followed him for a long time and are influenced by him. They all feel that women will only affect their cultivation and becoming stronger, and they have no sympathy for women.
Immediately, together with Monk Ma, they launched an even more fierce attack on these vixens.
These vixens are all stupid.
They never expected that they were showing off to the wrong person and were quickly killed. Their bodies were also taken away by the night watchmen.
The salvation must be thorough, of course, and it is best to let them accept salvation in the temple of the five internal organs.
From the beginning to the end, Monk Ma and his men never saw the black-robed monks.
It seemed that there was a special barrier between the two groups, allowing the black-robed monk to clearly see Monk Ma and others, but Monk Ma and others could not see him.
As soon as Monk Ma and others left, the black-robed monk cast a spell, causing a burning black lotus to flash in his eyes.
It was with this spell that he spied on Qin Shaoyou.
But he didn't see Qin Shaoyou's flaws. Instead, he felt that everything was as he expected and that everything was under his control.
After all, Qin Shaoyou is only a sixth-grade martial artist. Unless he has an exotic treasure with him, how can he easily be manipulated by him?
The black-robed monk had already investigated Qin Shaoyou through his spy, and knew that this boy's father was just a retired flag officer. Even though he has a brother-in-law from a hundred households and a brother-in-law from the county magistrate, it is impossible for him to have a rare treasure that can compete with him.
After a while, the black-robed monk put away his secret technique and said secretly: "Let's bury this chess piece like this for now. I hope it can bring me some surprises in the future..."
In his eyes, Qin Shaoyou was always just a little person.
Although he did some tricks on Qin Shaoyou and others, it was just a casual game.
It would be best if these idle chess pieces can be put to use in the future, but it doesn't matter if they are not.
There is no need to let him waste his time and pay too much attention.
It was at this time that a waiter climbed out of the well.
He came to the side of the black-robed monk, bowed his hands in salute, and reported: "Master, I have checked, and there is indeed an undercurrent from the direction of Qingtang at the bottom of the well, and there is also a ground vein that has been suppressed by peach wood nails... That boy named Qin Shaoyou is indeed extremely honest in front of you, Master, and cannot hide any secrets."
The waiter wanted to flatter him, but unfortunately he slapped him on the horse's leg.
After listening to his words, the black-robed monk turned to look at him and said slowly: "I asked you to go down the well, not to verify whether Qin Shaoyou's words are true. Under my magical power, he will only tell the truth. , there is absolutely no possibility of lying or concealing anything. I asked you to go down the well to check if there were any clues that they had ignored or not noticed!"
Although the black-robed monk's tone and expression were very calm when he said these words, without any blame, the waiter was so frightened that he not only broke out in cold sweat, but also shivered.
He hurriedly said: "I...I'll go down and check..."
The black-robed monk shook his head gently: "No need, let's go to someone else."
Hearing this, the waiter turned pale with fright. He knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowed and begged: "Please give me another chance, Master, please give me another chance..." …”
The black-robed monk didn't react at all and seemed to let him go.
But just when the waiter secretly breathed a sigh of relief, arms suddenly stretched out from his shadow, grabbing him and entangling him.
The waiter was frightened and struggled hurriedly.
But no matter how hard he resisted, he couldn't break free from the hands stretched out from these shadows!
In the end, the waiter was dragged into the shadow little by little and disappeared completely.
And his shadow blended into the shadow of the black-robed monk.
The black-robed monk narrowed his eyes and showed a relieved expression.
When the other waiters around him saw this scene, they all fell silent. Not to mention offering help and begging for mercy, they even held their breath.
After a while, the black-robed monk opened his eyes. Without looking at the waiters around him, he just ordered: "Go down one more person and check carefully."
The waiters looked at each other, unwilling to go down, but they did not dare to disobey the black-robed monk's order, or even make him feel neglected.
So soon, they selected a 'lucky person' and continued to go down the well to check.
At the same time, in the courtyard of the Demon Suppression Division, Qin Shaoyou, after putting away the Black Lotus Karma Fire, first went to burn a stick of incense on the statue of the founder of Jiutiandang Demon, thanking him for his help tonight.
After leaving the lobby again, he checked the contents of the new dishes on the page of the mysterious recipe.
The name of this dish is: Boiled Water Black Lotus.
It is said to be boiling water, but in fact, it requires the use of meat from various monsters. After adding Yin Qi, it is boiled with black lotus karma fire to make a soup stock.
The color of this soup stock is as clear as boiling water.
Then wash the black lotus flowers and pour the hot soup directly from the center of the flowers without adding other seasonings.
Under the influence of scalding broth, the black lotus will bloom completely.
Eating it at this moment not only tastes delicious and fragrant, it can also greatly improve your mental resistance and reach a state where you can stop being confused and slanderous.
This effect is exactly what Qin Shaoyou needs.
What he fears most now is mental attacks.
This time, had it not been for the help of his foodie instincts, mysterious recipes, and the statue of the Nine-Tian Demon Patriarch, he might have fallen into the trap of the 'see you tomorrow' monk.
Although I have escaped a disaster now, I can't always pin my hopes on external help, right?
As the saying goes, 'the best way to stop slander is to cultivate yourself', the best choice is to improve your mental resistance.
So Qin Shaoyou didn't hesitate and headed to the kitchen immediately, ready to start cooking the soup in preparation for making boiled black lotus.
On the way, he met Sun Xianzong.
Lao Sun yawned, looking like he had just woken up and had not slept well.
Qin Shaoyou said hello to him and left quickly.
Just because Sun Xianzong's body exuded a faint alluring fragrance.
Sun Xianzong himself obviously couldn't have a scent. He smelled like sweat or foot odor, which was more or less the same.
This is the scent of the black lotus planted in his body by the 'See You Tomorrow' monk.
Qin Shaoyou was afraid that if he stayed with Sun Xianzong for a long time, he would be tempted to take the black lotus out of his body and eat it.
Regardless of whether it can be done or not, as long as it is done, wouldn’t it be enough to alert the snake?
However, this scent also made Qin Shaoyou realize one thing: "It seems that there is no need to apply for supernatural items from Zuo Qianhu... I just need to wait for the night watchman who is out on a mission to come back. I will smell them one by one and I will know who has been tricked." No."
But he soon changed his mind: "You still have to apply for supernatural items, double checking is safer!"
Sun Xianzong looked at Qin Shaoyou who was walking away, feeling a little confused.
He always felt that something was wrong with the way Qin Shaoyou looked at him just now.
That look was so much like Zhu Xiucai watching the dancers in the Sand Dance Hall.
Sun Xianzong suddenly felt his buttocks getting cold and he broke into a cold sweat...
Qin Shaoyou didn't know what Sun Xianzong was thinking. After he entered the kitchen, he whispered to Qiurong, who was cooking midnight snacks for the night watchmen, and asked her to help him keep an eye on Sun Xianzong, Liao Yaosuo and Li Xianyou.
The reason why they did this was that they were afraid that the three of them would be manipulated by the 'See You Tomorrow' monk and do something detrimental to themselves and the Demon Suppression Division.
On the other hand, I also want to keep an eye on the three of them so that if something happens to them due to the black lotus in their bodies, I can rescue them in time.
Qiurong's ability to come and go without a trace was difficult for even Qin Shaoyou to detect, so it was just right for her to keep an eye on Sun Xianzong and the others.
