"Master Li! Master Li! There is a demon in Qinglin Temple!" A middle-aged man wearing a police officer's clothes walked into the courtyard with a dragon's shape and a tiger's stride.
This middle-aged man has a thin face, but his temples are bulging. At first glance, you can tell that he is a martial arts master who has practiced internal skills intensively.
"Captain Wang!" Zhang Xiaoyue and the others recognized that the person coming was none other than Wang Xiaolong, one of the three captors from Nan Bing Division.
"You four, go to Qinglin Temple quickly." Li Xiangwen walked out of the room and said calmly.
"Yes!" The four of them bowed at the same time.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Meng Yu and the four others used their body-strengthening techniques at the same time, and their bodies jumped directly onto the roof.
"Qinglin Temple is five miles outside the south of the city!" Zhang Xiaoyue said to Meng Yu. After saying that, the four of them quickly jumped to the south.
Nan Bing Division not only has to take care of the residents of Nancheng, but also the residents within ten miles outside Nancheng.
Qinglin Temple is also within the jurisdiction of Nanbingsi.
"Wang Captou, what kind of monster is he? Do you have any clues?" Li Xiangwen looked at Wang Xiaolong.
When it comes to solving crimes, detectives have unique skills and they can find many helpful clues.
"Master Li, it's possible that he's a face-eating ghost!" Wang Xiaolong looked very solemn.
"What?!" Li Xiangwen was shocked!
"This face-eating ghost has been silent for four months, how could it suddenly..."
Wang Xiaolong shook his head: "I don't know either."
"The great philanthropist of the Zhu family in the east of the city went to Qinglin Temple today to fulfill his vow. Miss Zhu Miaomiao of the Zhu family died in the jungle on the trail outside Qinglin Temple."
"Her entire face was eaten to a bloody pulp, leaving no trace of her face!"
"It's most likely that he's a face-eating ghost!"
Li Xiangwen's eyes narrowed, and his figure had already jumped up, leaping more than ten feet!
His speed is much faster than Meng Yu and others!
The four of them quickly left the city.
The speed of the body strengthening technique is no less than that of a good horse, and the distance of five miles is quickly reached.
The four of them were entering Qinglin Temple. Li Xiangwen had already passed by the four of them and entered the temple one step faster than them.
"This is..." Zhang Xiaoyue's expression suddenly became serious.
Meng Yu was stunned, is there anything strange about this?
"It may be a major case!" Wei Ming explained in a low voice.
"In general supernatural cases, Master Li will delegate power and let us investigate first."
"Master Li will only take action if there are really no clues."
"Master Li came here in such a hurry. I guess the four of us can't handle this Qinglin Temple case!"
I see!
Only then did Meng Yu understand.
The four of them quickly entered Qinglin Temple.
A middle-aged member looked at the closed white cloth on the ground with tearful eyes.
Monks, servants, maids... there were at least dozens of people standing nearby, with frightened looks on their faces, obviously very frightened.
Eight detectives had already stopped the men, several feet away from the bodies.
Li Xiangwen reached out and lifted up a corner of the white cloth, and his eyes suddenly shrank!
This bloody face is indeed the hand of a ghost that eats faces!
"Brother Meng, guard the temple gate and pay careful attention to the demeanor of these people. Maybe the demon is hiding among these people!" Zhang Xiaoyue ordered in a low voice.
Meng Yu nodded slightly.
He doesn't have much experience in dealing with monsters now. If he rushes forward rashly, bad things may happen. If he stays and observes, he won't cause trouble.
Zhang Xiaoyue, Wei Ming and He Lianhui stepped forward. They separated the monks, servants and maids, and investigated their confessions.
In fact, the police have already asked for a confession.
But Zhang Xiaoyue and the others still wanted to ask again in case there were any missed clues.
Meng Yu was paying attention to the movements in the temple, and suddenly he felt a surge of spiritual power.
It was Li Xiangwen, and his eyes showed a faint green light at this time.
Is this a vision?
Li Xiangwen was checking to see if there was any demonic energy left.
The first thing I saw was Zhu Miaomiao's body. There was indeed some faint demonic energy on her face.
Li Xiangwen turned his eyes slightly and kept looking at the ground. He slowly stood up and followed the traces of demonic energy on the ground.
Meng Yu followed him quietly, and the two left Qinglin Temple one after another and arrived near the jungle where Zhu Miaomiao died.
"This is where the Face-Eater Ghost appears." Li Xiangwen whispered. He saw some light black evil energy in the woods. The evil energy here was relatively strong. The Face-Eater Ghost had been here for a while.
"Is there a trajectory of its departure?" Meng Yu followed, but he did not use his spiritual vision.
He had seen the name of the face-eating ghost in that demon catalog.
Demon's name: Face-Eating Ghost.
Level: Deformed Demon.
Characteristics: Beautiful as a flower, with stunning beauty, charming women.
Weakness: Dislikes ugly faces.
Cause: The mutated appearance of an ugly woman. She was jealous of beautiful women, so she would eat the faces of beautiful women, hence the name Face Eater.
That was the deformed demon in the second realm.
If Meng Yu turns on his spiritual vision, there is a chance that he will be contaminated by the distorted demonic energy, and the risk is not small.
Since Li Xiangwen has turned on his spiritual vision, he shouldn't miss the clues of the demonic energy.
"It stayed there for a while, and then slowly walked here..." Li Xiangwen first pointed to the jungle not far away, and then pointed to the location of Zhu Miaomiao's body, where there were still many residual blood stains.
"I stayed here for a long time, probably eating Zhu Miaomiao's face..."
"Next, she went that way!"
The last direction Li Xiangwen pointed was the direction of the mountain behind Qinglin Temple.
Qinglin Temple is built on a small mountain peak, with a monk's residence on the back mountain.
"Is the face-eating ghost a monk?" Meng Yu was stunned.
"No... the Face-eating Ghost was a mutated woman. She should have returned to Qinglin Temple while there was no one in the back mountain! Let's go!" Li Xiangwen followed the evil aura towards the back mountain again.
Meng Yu followed him, paying attention to the movements around him.
Li Xiangwen stopped behind the monk's house on the back mountain.
"The evil spirit has disappeared!" Li Xiangwen looked at the wall of the monk's house in surprise.
When the demonic energy reaches the wall, it disappears. There is not a trace of demonic energy left inside the wall.
It was as if it had disappeared out of thin air.
Generally speaking, the later the demonic energy is left, the longer it will remain.
"The demonic energy disappeared? Only to the wall?" Meng Yu raised his head in surprise.
He thought that the monster might have jumped to the top of a tall tree and escaped.
The demonic energy was brought to the monk's residence in Qinglin Temple just to disrupt the Demon Slayer's investigation.
However, there is a lot of space behind the monk's residence, and the nearest tall trees are more than ten feet away.
"There is no demonic energy on those tall trees...the demonic energy just disappeared so strangely!" Li Xiangwen was puzzled.
"Has that face-eating ghost learned some special breath-containing method..." Meng Yu suddenly asked.
"She deliberately led the demonic energy here, then gathered her breath and left... She is disrupting the direction of our investigation."
Meng Yu thought of the effect of the Thunder Hidden Technique.
"Demons can't learn the spiritual breathing method..." Li Xiangwen shook his head slightly.
"What if this face-eating ghost had already learned it before the mutation?" Meng Yu asked again.
"Uh...what do you mean?" Li Xiangwen was stunned.
