"This year's winter moon is the best time to kill him. If you miss this opportunity, you will have no choice but to let Mr. Li Lang cultivate his evil ways. Unless the founder of Longhu Mountain Taoist Court takes action, no one can deal with him."
"Now that I think about it, he told me that I must come to Yuping Town before the winter moon when I travel around. It turns out that this is what he meant here."
Xu Xiake showed a look of realization on his face.
"According to your master's wishes, he has met Mr. Li Lang before?"
Song Siyuan not only carefully pondered the meaning of Xu Xiake's words, but also specially wrote them down in her notebook. The palm-sized pieces of paper were quickly filled with memories.
"That's inevitable. He was still in the prime of his life and was fighting endlessly with Mr. Li Lang. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been seriously injured and spent half a year in Baoping Temple."
Xu Xiake's words made her particularly curious: "Is it possible that there really is an immortal family near Tiesha Mountain, and that Mr. Li Lang has become a demon through cultivation?"
"That's impossible. Mr. Li Lang is still a human being. According to his appearance, he is Kong Deshun. He used the golden needle to disguise himself and escaped into the mountains. However, according to my master, he has been hiding in the mountains for more than thirty years. There is no difference between you and a demon."
Xu Xiake's words made everyone finally heave a sigh of relief. If Mr. Li Lang really became a demon, it would be a trivial matter to be extremely difficult to deal with. Even their world concepts might be subverted. Song Siyuan finally felt anxious when he heard him mention that Mr. Li Lang was a human being. Let it go.
"Later, humans are humans and demons are demons, so why is there no difference? Does he have three heads and six arms, or is he covered with fur and horns?"
Yue Qingshan frowned. Although the pipe was not lit, he took several puffs of it sadly.
Xu Xiake sighed and waved his hand: "No, according to my master's observation, he used the art of making animals to create animals himself!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone took a breath and felt chills running down their backs for no reason.
Yue Guanchao and the others already knew the art of making animals, and even based on written records, they could feel the pain of those children. Now when the little Taoist priest said that Kong Deshun had made himself look like an animal, they felt that this man had gone crazy.
Xu Xiake recalled what his master had said and continued to introduce the details of the civet man: "The reason why he looks like a demon is because the beast he is looking for is a big civet cat. Ordinary civet cats are at most the size of a house cat. This civet cat in Tiesha Mountain It was actually even better than a tiger. He somehow subdued the civet cat, skinned the civet cat, stuck the hot skin to his body, and turned into a big civet cat."
"I heard that he also ate the brain of the king civet cat. From then on, the civet cats near Tiesha Mountain were able to understand his screams as if they were possessed. They could even let the civet cats do anything for him as long as he wanted. My master was almost trapped by that civet cat and died."
Song Siyuan thought for a moment and nodded: "In that case, the cat plague in Anyuan County was probably caused by Kong Deshun. As for sacrificial rituals, they often follow legends. So how did he do it? Is everyone in the county infected with the plague?”
No one knows how to explain this. Although Anyuan County is a mountainous county, it has a large number of people. The villagers can gather as many as 10,000 people and as few as 50,000 people. The whole county has a population of hundreds of thousands, so the plague can be It spread out so quickly, which shows how powerful it is.
Yue Qingshan frowned, sucked his pipe and guessed: "Girl, I remember Zen Master Gu Ming said that at first it was the wild raccoon cats who got sick first, and then people got sick after eating the dead cats, and then it spread to the whole county. , I was wondering at that time, eating cats is the most taboo for mountain people, and Anyuan County is a big mountainous county, and even beggars won’t eat live cats, so who would eat a dead cat that’s foaming at the mouth.”
"Let me see~" Yue Qingshan put down his pipe and gave a final explanation for the plague case: "The person who ate the dead cat must have something fishy. Maybe this person was possessed by the Li Langjun and asked him to deliberately spread the disease. The cats were eaten, and then the domestic cats were used to cause the plague, thus causing harm to the entire city.”
"As for how to create a plague, it's simply too easy."
Yue Qingshan paused and continued to explain: "Rat, as long as there are rats~"
"You still remember, since Li Langjun was sealed off, all the rats in the county have disappeared without a trace. I guess the source of the plague is those rats. These things are closest to our common people's lives, such as granaries, firewood sheds, and noodle stoves. Rats may be hiding in any dark place, such as on the platform, in the cracks of bricks in walls, in corners, or even on roofs and under beds. They carry the disease everywhere, fall into water or stick to clothes. Designate children to spread the disease to people."
"And the most frightening thing is that mice don't need to carry diseases at all, because these little things are dirty themselves, and their bodies are full of disease holes. Even if we don't have that civet cat, if we ask these mice to run around the county, they will still die. No plague."
"Why do you think there is a major epidemic after a major disaster? In fact, it is the rats that move around in the corpses, bringing the dirt on the corpses, and then spread through people. It is also for this reason that whenever there are many deaths, Wherever there is, the corpses must be disposed of with lime first, for fear that the animals will attract the plague.”
