Take e-commerce in the previous life as an example.
There are countless stores in a certain store, who makes the most money?
It must be someone who once became the richest man.
The platform boss earns much more than other merchants!
Meng Yu sighed in his heart, he really cannot underestimate anyone in this demon world.
The appearance that Tian He showed in the Demon Slayer Division was that of a coquettish, indulgent and extremely dandy second generation ancestor. Who would have thought that it would be him who organized the spiritual gathering in Nancheng.
This guy knows how to use his status as a playboy to hide his true colors, and he is very scheming!
"Thank you, Mr. Tian." Meng Yu put the golden mask away without ceremony.
"But, is this golden mask too high-profile? Are there any masks worn by ordinary spiritual practitioners?"
Tian You was stunned for a moment, then showed a "fellow-minded" smile: "Brother Meng is really my confidant!"
“You can make a fortune by being low-key, but you can only attract attention by being high-profile!”
The number of golden masks in the gathering of thousands of gods is very small. Once they appear, they are easily noticeable and not low-key at all.
"This silver mask should be enough. All spiritual masters wear this mask." Tian or turned over his left hand and handed over another silver mask. Obviously, he also had storage equipment.
"Not bad, not bad. I came out in a hurry this time. I will return the gift to Mr. Tian when I get the chance." Meng Yu was overjoyed and said politely.
With these two masks, he can blend into spiritual gatherings.
It will be much easier to buy and sell things then.
For example, the talismans he refines can be sold directly to spiritual gatherings, and he can earn 10%, so why should he give the talisman shop 30% of the profit?
"Repay the gift? Brother Meng is so polite..." Tian You was evasive on the surface, but he was quite looking forward to it in his heart.
This is a big shot from Kyoto, so he shouldn't give him any small gifts, right?
How did he know that this was just a casual polite comment from Meng Yu.
The two of them chatted all the way and got a lot closer by talking.
The two walked for more than ten miles and finally saw a half-collapsed mountain temple.
In the temple, only half of the body of the mountain god was left, and the ground was covered with rubble and broken tiles, and it was a mess.
"It shouldn't be the case here." Tian or Zhuma looked at it carefully for a while and said.
"This mountain temple is in disrepair and has collapsed for at least five years."
"This is inconsistent with the two-year period on record."
"It's impossible for people from the martial arts school and escort agency to rest in this half-collapsed mountain temple."
It has to be said that Tian You does have good eyesight, and Meng Yu thinks the same way.
The paint on the remaining half of the body of the mountain god has been severely peeled off. Only after a very long period of rain and sun can the paint peel off to this extent.
In other words, this mountain temple definitely did not collapse two years ago.
Although the possibility was extremely small, Tian Or still left a light yellow spiritual flag to mark it.
The two rode north for more than thirty miles and discovered two dilapidated mountain temples on the road. These two mountain temples had not collapsed, but no one had entered the temples for a long time. The ground and the The altar table was covered with thick dust.
After making the same mark, the two of them turned back.
Two quarters of an hour later.
The two returned to the intersection where Gong Xingju was. The others had already returned, and they were the last to arrive.
Everyone will tell about the mountain temples they saw one by one.
There are four mountain temples in the east, two mountain temples in the west, plus Meng Yu's three in the north, there are nine mountain temples in total.
However, there is nothing unusual about this Jiujian Mountain Temple.
"These mountain temples seem to be in disrepair and covered with dust. No one has gone to worship them for at least one or two years..." Others agreed with Liu Hongxiu's words.
Gong Xingju calmly analyzed: "This is Tieling, and most of the residents are miners."
"They rely on the mountain to eat the mountain, there's no way they won't worship the mountain god!"
"Two years ago, something terrible must have happened to the mountain temple. The people living here are not worshiping the mountain god, but they are afraid of the mountain god, so they don't dare to go to the mountain temple anymore."
"Maybe the mountain god has appeared, but it's an evil spirit!"
"To find the real mountain temple, you have to ask the residents here."
"Do you understand what I mean?"
Everyone nodded at the same time.
"Who brought the money?" Liu Hongxiu asked suddenly.
Everyone shook their heads. They all had the cultivation level of a spiritual master or above. How could they carry money that ordinary people could use on their bodies.
Only Meng Yu reached into his arms and took out a stack of banknotes, about one hundred taels in denomination.
After entering the Demon Slayer Division, the silver notes Meng Changlin prepared for him were not used at all. He still had two to three hundred taels of silver notes in his arms that he had not taken out.
"I'm a weak woman, and I use money to clear the way. I guess they won't take precautions. Let's wait here for my good news." Liu Hongxiu took the silver note and left.
The Tieling area is full of miners, and they are very wary of outsiders.
If you want to get information quickly and effectively, you have to rely on Liu Hongxiu's trick.
Using spiritual techniques to intimidate may not yield the most effective information. Some ordinary people may remember some things incorrectly when they are intimidated, which is not beneficial to the progress of the case.
Gong Xingju glanced at Tian Or thoughtfully.
After Tian He and Meng Yu came back, he noticed something strange.
First of all, Meng Yu's name for Tian or changed. It was originally supposed to be "Master Tian", but now it has become "Master Tian".
Then, inadvertently, Tian You looked at Meng Yu with a hint of awe!
A spiritual master, respecting a spiritual master?
Obviously that's not right, that's showing respect for the other person's background!
This shows that Meng Yu’s background is tougher than Tian Or’s!
Another dandy second generation?
Not right either.
The reason why Meng Yu participated in this case was brought by Li Xiangwen.
He is not here to grab credit like Tian He.
In addition, Meng Yu's observation skills are amazing, his cultivation level is not weak, and his soul has reached the level of a spiritual master.
This is a low-key genius who should have been sent by a big force to gain training.
One thing is strange.
The experience of the big forces usually wait until the disciples have the ability to protect themselves before they are sent out.
At least one must have the cultivation level of a underworld warrior.
Meng Yu is only a spiritual warrior...which is a bit strange.
After returning home, he must investigate Meng Yu's background. Gong Xingju is now very curious about Meng Yu.
Liu Hongxiu came back smelling of alcohol. Her eyes were blurred and her cheeks were flushed. She must have drank a lot of wine.
"Huh..." He breathed a long sigh of relief, and Liu Hongxiu's eyes instantly regained clarity.
"We have found out..." Liu Hongxiu began to describe the information she had just obtained at the wine table. She had a drink with four or five miners, and slowly used words to test, and finally found out what happened two years ago.
"It was just after the New Year two years ago."
"Seven young girls are missing near the mine on the west side of Tieling."
"These girls are all miners' daughters. They delivered meals to the miners together and disappeared on the way back."
"Later, the miners organized manpower to search for traces of these girls all over the mountains and plains."
"Finally, in a mountain temple in the west, some torn strips of cloth were found in the mouth of the mountain god statue. Those strips of cloth were torn from the girl's robe."
"Since that time, legends of evil mountain gods have appeared in Tieling."
"The evil mountain god seizes a young girl as his wife. Once captured by the mountain god, she will never come back."
"With this legend, residents near Tieling no longer dare to worship the mountain god."
"This is why no one worships at the mountain temple."
A young girl? Brothel!
Isn’t this connected?
Everyone has guessed that possibility!
"The people from the escort agency and the people from the martial arts school met at the mountain temple. They had a good chat and maybe even drank." Gong Xingju sorted out the case.
"Those young girls happened to pass by the mountain temple when they were returning home."
"The smell of alcohol is rising, and the sex is so bold!"
"These guys may have raped those seven girls."
"Afterwards, in order to cover up the crime, I deliberately framed the matter on the mountain god!"
"After they took seven girls away, they sold them to a brothel!"
"Do you have anything else to add?"
Gong Xingju's voice contained strong murderous intent.
If this is really the case, then it would be no pity for the people in the escort agency and martial arts school to die!
"If that's true, those girls should still be in the brothel... But all the people in the brothel are also dead... This..." Li Xiangwen was puzzled.
"The land of brothels is extremely cruel to disobedient women. Maybe those seven girls could no longer bear the humiliation and committed suicide." Tian You's face was also very solemn.
He has the most say when it comes to women in brothels, and he has seen many cruel ways that brothels treat disobedient women.
"Let's put these things aside for now..." Yuankong suddenly said.
"What kind of demon is seeking revenge for these girls?"
The cases of ordinary people can be handed over to the Yamen police officers.
This demonic thing must be resolved.
Although now this demon is doing justice and avenging those girls.
However, no one can guarantee whether this demon will lose control.
Once the demon's demonic nature is aroused, it may be out of control.
Even the most rational demon cannot control its nature!
"The demon's true form may be the mountain god here." Liu Hongxiu speculated.
"It was originally worshiped by Tieling residents, but suddenly it lost its followers and was framed."
"It's natural to feel resentful, and the girls who committed suicide felt resentful."
"So, it followed the resentment and killed everyone in the brothel, escort agency and martial arts school."
Meng Yu was shocked: "The mountain god turned into a demon?"
"What's weird? Even gods can have evil thoughts, and when they change, they become demons." Gong Xingju said disapprovingly.
"This also explains why this demon only attacks once every half a year."
"The mountain spirit is far more intelligent than ordinary demons. In order not to reveal his whereabouts, he deliberately waits for a long time before committing a crime."
"Using the art of dreams to kill people without leaving any trace, even the Demon Slayer can't do anything to him."
Meng Yu was very surprised. Since he is a god, isn't his cultivation level very high?
"What state is the mountain god in?" he asked cautiously.
The two slaying rebel pavilion remnant gods he had seen in Shaolin County were both extremely powerful men in the seventh realm!
"Mountain gods are gods who practice by believing in incense. Generally, mountain spirits become spirits and protect one party." Mu Shengqi explained.
"It's different from the spiritual realm of spiritual cultivation."
"Where the incense is more prosperous, the mountain god's cultivation level will be higher."
"The population of this Tieling is not large, and the incense has been cut off for two years. The mountain god should not be very strong. At most, it is only in the fourth level."
The fourth realm? Huh, that's okay.
Meng Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, this mountain god is quite miserable.
Originally enjoying the incense in good condition, he was suddenly framed. Not only was the incense gone, but his reputation was also tarnished.
It is not only revenge for those girls, but more importantly, it is also a breath of relief for myself.
"Everyone, are you a spiritual master from the Demon Slayer Division?" An old voice suddenly reached everyone's ears.
Everyone turned their heads sharply.
I saw a hunched old man in cloth clothes, only about five feet tall, standing a few feet away, cupping his fists and saluting.
This old man resembles an ape, with a very thin body and an old face. He looks like he is seventy or eighty years old.
"Are you the mountain god here?" Gong Xingju opened his mouth and everyone else was shocked at the same time!
Unexpectedly, as soon as I mentioned the mountain god, the mountain god arrived!
"Yes, old Miaozhenzi is a monkey who became a spirit." The old man grinned and began to introduce himself.
"Forty or fifty years ago, I passed by this place and saw that there was no mountain god in Tieling, so I built a temple here to settle down and enjoy the incense and worship here."
"But I didn't expect that you should be very clear about what happened two years ago."
Gong Xingju frowned: "Why are you showing up now?"
Maozhenzi clasped his hands and said, "Kill those people, old man."
"Come and protect the Tieling believers."
"Secondly, protect the old man's reputation."
"The third time I come is to ask the Demon Slayer to rectify the old man's name!"
Gong Xingju frowned even more: "If you want to ask the Demon Slayer to clear your name, you can enter Myanmar Prefecture in a dignified manner."
Maozhenzi bowed again: "Although I am a mountain god, I am a monkey who has become a spirit."
"The demonic energy has not been completely removed from my body."
"If he goes to Burma Prefecture in person, he will probably be killed by a master of the extreme realm with one move."
"At that time, I won't even have a chance to defend myself."
Gong Xingju stared at Miaozhenzi closely and asked, "What method did you use to kill those people silently?"
"The art of sleeping in the spirit, this is an old man's natural talent, it can make people fall into a dream." Miaozhenzi knew everything and answered calmly.
"Those are just ordinary people, and their souls were dragged into the dream without any resistance."
"Lao Chan's strange technique cannot cause harm to spiritual cultivation, please don't worry."
What Maozhenzi said is very consistent with the case. Indeed, none of those who died were spiritual practitioners.
But Meng Yu felt something strange. When people in the martial arts hall died... they smelled like gamblers.
Why didn't Myoko mention this?
"Senior Miaozhenzi, are you a gambler?" Meng Yu asked.
"Gambler?" Miaozhenzi shook his head in confusion.
"I never gamble."
"I don't even know any gambling skills."
As soon as these words came out, Gong Xingju's expression suddenly changed!
"Be careful! It's not the mountain god who really harms people! There are other monsters here!"
However, it was too late.
Several thick black fogs blew in from all directions, shrouding everyone, including the mountain god Myozinko.
