Anger and hatred made Niu Er's eyes bloodshot. The evil spirit released from his body had reached its peak, and all the rolling blood evil energy was sucked into Mi Tuo's body.

While absorbing the evil spirit generated by Niu Er, Amitabha said with satisfaction: "Hate is indeed a good thing..."

Niu Er said angrily: "Is this the result you want? You devil, you have done this destructive thing. Aren't you afraid of the consequences of retribution? Even if I, Niu Er, die at your hands today, I will be the emperor tomorrow." I want to take revenge on you for being a fierce ghost."

After Niu Er finished speaking, he picked up the long stick on the ground and rushed towards Mi Tuo angrily. Looking at Niu Er rushing towards him, Mi Tuo raised the corner of his arrogant mouth and said: "The evil spirit in your body is gone. , What’s the use of keeping you? Just let me relieve you!”

As he spoke, Mi Tuo struck with the Han Che Sword in his hand, and the long stick in Niu Er's hand was broken into two pieces by the sword energy of the Han Che Sword. Mi Tuo then struck out with another palm, only to hear Niu Er's sternum being struck by Mi Tuo's palm energy. Below, there was a breaking sound. Niu Er fell heavily to the ground and never reacted.

In the dim room, as Niu Er fell to the ground and died, the room returned to silence, except that there were three more cold corpses on the ground, and the original gray ground now turned bright red.

Amitabha didn't feel any guilt or guilt towards those three cold corpses. He didn't even look at them. He turned around, waved his right hand, and released a burst of force. The oil lamp was knocked directly onto the curtain, burning with raging fire, burning everything in the house, including what Amitabha had committed in the house. sins.

When the neighbors were awakened from their dreams by the raging fire, the fire had become unstoppable. Everyone had been busy for a long time, but it was only a drop in the bucket and had no effect. They could only stand aside helplessly and watch. With this raging fire, the entire house was reduced to ashes.

Amitabha returned to his study at night without anyone noticing. At this time, he felt that his body was full of strength. He enjoyed this feeling very much.

Amitabha wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to practice and break through the "Seven Evil Blood Refining Magic Skills" while the iron was hot. However, it was already late, and when he practiced the magic skills today, due to lack of evil spirits, he was counterattacked by the magic skills. Although he had been nursed back to health, he no longer had any obvious symptoms. It hurts, but I can still feel some discomfort in my heart.

Amitabha thought that if he couldn't get hot tofu out of a hurry, it would be better to wait for two days until the situation in the south of the city calmed down a little, and then he could gather some evil spirits to try to succeed, lest he failed again at the critical moment due to insufficient evil spirits. , wouldn’t that be worth the loss?

For this reason, Amitabha slept quietly, cultivated his body quietly, and tried his best to keep his body in the best condition in order to prepare and lay the foundation for practicing the "Seven Evil Blood Refining Magic Art" in the future.

The next day, the news that Niu Er's house in the south of the city caught fire, and the family of three was burned alive, quickly spread throughout Jiuli City. The people in Jiuli City who knew Niu Er lamented the misfortune of his family. There were many rumors on the street about Niu Er's family having a fire for no reason.

"Niu Er's family is a respectable and amiable person. I haven't returned the money he gave me to repair the roof of my house last time. I haven't returned it to him yet. I didn't find him and he encountered such an unfortunate thing."

"Why did a kind-hearted family like Niu Er suffer such a bad fate? God is really short-sighted."

"This is called good people's lives being short-lived, and disasters lasting thousands of years." When the man said this, his eyes spontaneously looked towards the prince's palace.

After hearing what he said, the faces of the few people around him immediately changed, as if they were a little scared. They hurriedly made a silence gesture to the man, and then looked around to see if anyone listened.

They whispered: "You don't want your life. Be careful if someone hears it. If it reaches his ears, it will be terrible."

General Chi Li returned to his house with a gloomy and unhappy look on his face. All the depression in his heart was written on his face.

Elder Haoran looked at his depressed look and asked: "Looking at your expression, it looks like you have lost hundreds of taels of silver. Who has offended you again? Make you so depressed."

General Chi Li said angrily: "Sir, do you think there is any justice in this? Such a good family was killed in a fire for no reason. What do you think is the justice?"

Elder Haoran was confused when he heard this, and asked again: "Whose family was buried in the flames? It seems that this family is not simple, otherwise it would not make you so sad? It inspired your compassionate emotions."

"I heard in the city today that there is a bricklayer in the south of the city. He is a very kind man and is willing to help others. Many elderly and poor people in the city have benefited from him. However, for such a good family of three, for some reason last night, a fire broke out in their home. A fire broke out and the family of three was burned alive inside. I heard there was a two or three-year-old girl among them."

Elder Haoran asked in surprise: "No one in the family of three escaped?"

Chi Li said regretfully: "Yes, no one escaped, and the whole family of three was buried in the sea of ​​fire."

After hearing this, Elder Haoran's mood became solemn, "Why is it that the government didn't intervene in the investigation?"

"I heard that people from the government went there early in the morning. They carefully inspected the scene and found no traces of homicide. They finally concluded that the oil lamp might have been knocked over at night and ignited something combustible, which caused this fatal incident. The fire killed that family."

Elder Haoran said with suspicion: "Did he really knock over the oil lamp? Then who knocked over the oil lamp? Didn't the falling of the oil lamp wake up the family of three? Unless they slept like you and couldn't wake up due to thunder. "

Chi Li said in embarrassment: "Young master, just talk about what you say! Why do you involve me in your topic again? I was shot while I was lying down. Do you think I am unjust or not?"

"Do you feel wronged by that family of three? Come on, let's go to the scene and see what kind of oil lamp is so powerful that it can burn the lives of a family of three without anyone noticing?"

As Elder Haoran and Elder Chi Li walked along, they could hear citizens talking about the tragic incident in which three members of Niu Er's family were killed in the flames. Various speculations about the accident were derived from this, including the theory that enemies were chasing them.

Elder Haoran said to General Chi Li: "It seems that Niu Er's family is very popular. Most people on this road are sad and sorry for the death of his family. You say that such a person will not offend others. Set yourself on fire?"

General Chi Li said: "How could a person like this, who is harmonious with his neighbors, go back to cause trouble and cause such a calamity of annihilation?"

While they were talking, Elder Haoran and General Chi Li had already arrived in front of the ashes of Niu Er's residence, looking at the ruins left after the fire and the blackened and collapsed roof beams.

General Chi Li sighed: "As the saying goes, fire and water have no mercy, and it's true. In just one night, the originally happy family was wiped out."

Elder Haoran said: "Water and fire are ruthless, and humans are even better! We'd better walk around to see what caused the lives of this family. What about the bodies of Niu Er's family of three?"

General Chi Li replied: "After the government surveyed the scene, they concluded that the oil lamp was responsible. Therefore, the kind-hearted neighbors could not bear to expose their bodies outside, so they all contributed to bury the family on the mountain behind."

General Chi Li and Elder Haoran carefully inspected the ruins of Niu Er's family house to find out if there was anything abnormal. In Elder Haoran's mind, the death of Niu Er's family was definitely not caused by a falling oil lamp that ignited Yi. However, it is so simple that it is caused by items.

Looking at the traces of corpse oil left by Niu Er's family when they fell on the ground, and looking at the layout of the house, Elder Haoran concluded that the family was in the hall when the fire burned. It means that the three of them had already woken up and came to the hall at that time, and were not asleep in the bedroom. In this case, why didn't they escape from the fire in time? Judging from their family's financial situation, there shouldn't be any finances to be obsessed with. What's strange is that from the traces of corpse oil left on the ashes, there is no trace of struggle.

The results of the on-site investigation were as he expected. It was not that simple. Who could have such great ability to execute this family in a fire without leaving any trace? Elder Haoran thought to himself, with such a A capable person is neither a demon nor a monster, nor a human being.

In order to thoroughly investigate this bizarre human life case, Elder Haoran closed his eyes and used his microscopic powers to check whether there was any evil spirit around him?

As soon as Elder Haoran used his microscopic power, he sensed a weak evil aura. Elder Haoran's face suddenly changed with shock, and he couldn't help shouting: "Not good!"

General Chi Li saw Elder Haoran being so frightened. General Chi Li asked curiously: "Sir, is there something wrong? Is it the work of thieves? I just said how could such a strange fire be silent? They burned Niu Er and his family of three in the fire."

Elder Haoran smiled and said: "I think you are overthinking. His family just died in the misfortune of the fire, and there is nothing wrong with it. The matter is clear, let's go! Let's go back!"
