Chapter 305 Crisis Reappears(2/2)
Then choose it!
[I heard from the prison boss that the office documents room on the east side of the Yamen keeps quite a lot of local files. So you choose to go to the office documents room to have a look. In that room, there are more than a dozen bookshelves stacked with official documents and bookshelves.
There is a thin layer of dust on top.]
[The scholar in charge was drunk and dozed on the table. When he heard your footsteps, he just raised his head and glanced without becoming suspicious. It is also appropriate for a "Qinghui Taoist" to come here to clean up the bad luck.
.]
[You wake the other person up and hand over some broken silver, expressing that you are very interested in the history of Fenghua City and want to take a look at the customs and customs here.]
[The scholar accepted the money with a red smile and pointed to a bookshelf for you to check at will. Although this matter is not in compliance with the rules, as long as no one is held accountable, it doesn't matter. 】
[During your review of the files, you found several suspicious clues.]
[*You discovered in these files that a local deity named "Wu Ming Hui Shu" was canonized as a righteous god three years ago and was enshrined in the side hall of the Taoist temple. 】
[*You found in these files that the population of Fenghua City may be decreasing year by year, and the mortality rate of newborn infants is very high. The reason for this is not stated. 】
[*You discovered in these files that grave robberies have occurred frequently in recent years, and even the bones in mass graves have been dug up directly and disappeared.]
Wang Hao scratched his scalp, confused by these gloomy clues.
"Such an obvious reminder... The next evil boss is this Wu Ming Shu?"
Wang Hao couldn't help but feel shocked when he thought about how he had just captured the "Water Ghost King" and received 34 points of false power.
"I have food in my hand and don't panic. The worst I can do is add more military combat power. I wonder how much reward I can get for capturing this 'lifeless man'?"
Of course, to support war with war, we must achieve great victories again and again, but with only one heavy damage, Qingshi Town's combat power will be greatly reduced, and it will be extremely difficult to replenish it. Therefore, the necessary caution should still be exercised.
…
…
Li Qingshan slowly put down the books he was holding. Seeing that it was getting late, he bid farewell to the drunken scholar and returned to his room.
Waiting until nightfall, I quietly took out the conch headphones that were thrown under the bed and put them on my ears.
His current identity is equivalent to that of a spy spying on information. It doesn't matter if he dies. This Conch headset cannot be lost, so he doesn't dare to carry it directly with him.
"Dongdongdong" knocked on the earphones and knocked out a series of regular signals.
After a while, there was a response from the other side of the earphone.
"How was it?" Lu Tianming asked, "How was the investigation today? Are there any new results?"
Li Qingshan said: "I checked the files in the city today, and the situation is very bad... The locals attribute the reason for the population decline to the macroscopic impact of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's ineffective power, but in fact it is not
.”
"I believe that the subtle infiltration of a certain evil force has led to the decline of the population." Li Qingshan briefly described the content of the text he read today, "This evil force is very obscure, coupled with the local people's tolerance for evil.
It’s a very high level that has led to the current situation.”
"Well, the results of my investigation here are also the same." Lao Lu pondered for a moment and said, "Many wealthy families have noticed the changes in the environment and have a strong desire to move. For example, Ding Zhijing and his family have moved to Qingshi Town.
"
"Ding Zhijing has surrendered to us a long time ago, which doesn't mean anything, right?"
"Ding Zhijing is just a branch family, and there is also their main family. There are more than a hundred people in this big family. Some of them have been elected officials and have been high officials. Now they are also thinking of moving."
"Most of their property is here in Fenghua City. They would rather abandon their property than move. They are only willing to do this when their life safety is threatened. So don't underestimate the locals. I speculate that there are many people with higher spiritual strength.
The locals have developed a mysterious sixth sense, which prompts them to make decisions."
"Didn't you ask why?"
Lu Tianming lowered his voice: "The problem does arise with the 'Wu Ming Hui Shu'. The locals are not stupid, and they will always tell the difference through some clues. 'Wu Ming Hui Shu' was a small foreign god at the beginning.
, through a special kind of 'talisman water', you can cure diseases after drinking it, so the number of people who believe in it has increased significantly in recent years, approaching the level of the Great Mother of Turtle Spirits."
"Ding Zhijing has some suspicions that the source of the 'Fu Shui' is incorrect, but there is no reliable evidence. In addition, the imperial court has canonized him as a righteous god, so the local squire cannot object."
"Other people think that with Mother Turtle Spirit sitting in charge, they can keep Fenghua City safe. They are unwilling to give up their property and leave directly."
The two discussed it for a while and concluded that "killing one person to save another" must be evil and there is almost no need for discussion on earth.
But in this world where black and white are reversed, most people feel that bad things will not happen to them.
Next, Lu Tianming enthusiastically introduced the big and small things that happened in Qingshi Town.
The appearance of "Tianmen" and "Six Paths of Reincarnation" made Li Qingshan feel excited. He had only been out for a few days, and such a big thing happened!
Lao Lu said with a smile: "How about that guy in the prison? Can you deal with it? The rewards for dealing with these guys are very generous. Each one has hundreds or thousands of points. Now several S-level and A-level investigators are
I'm gearing up and thinking about catching the evil god."
Li Qingshan immediately rejected this option: "I have inquired about this person in the prison in the past few days. Not only does this prison in Fenghua City exist, there are also so-called 'prison gods' who torture prisoners to death in prisons in other cities.
"
"Either they exist as a species with many similar weirdnesses; or they are just thousands of incarnations of the same existence."
If it's the former, it's okay to say that the power level is limited and there is a possibility of being captured alive.
If it's the latter, a certain existence that "incarnates into thousands of people" is really something that humans can't easily offend.
After hearing this, Lu Tianming could only give up temporarily. The current focus of the investigation was still on "Wu Ming Zhu Shu", and there was no need to cause more trouble.
As the discussion continued, Li Qingshan's heart became more and more subtle, and a sense of urgency continued to rise.
In the end, he still didn't want to see the city in ruins, and he thought: "Or, tonight, let me go and investigate in person. Go and see what happened to the lifeless woman?"
Anyway, even if you die, you can still be resurrected.
"That's okay, you can bring the bomb...be careful not to reveal your identity...please tell me that your identity as a Taoist disciple is still useful."
"clear."
After the information exchange session ended, Li Qingshan took off his earphones and hid them, took off his Taoist robe, and put on a black suit.
He took out a few thumb-sized black balls from his bag, stuffed them into his pocket, and put one of them in his mouth.
This thing is a "robust bomb". With just one bite, it can trigger a huge explosion and blow itself into a ball of minced meat.
By then, no one will be able to identify themselves from the minced meat.
Li Qingshan climbed out of the wall with a gentle step.
The moon and stars were sparse, and the night was as dark as water. Something seemed to be brewing in the air.
In the middle of the night, Fenghua City was eerily quiet. Even the beggars on the street huddled in their dilapidated houses and did not dare to sleep on the street.
There is a local legend about the "cat-faced old lady" who will eat someone's face if someone sleeps on the street; there is also the legend of a fox demon, which disguises itself as a human and sucks male essence at night.
Of course, it is not yet known whether these legends are true or false.
