Chapter 191 "Tapir"

…

There is a shrine enshrined in a secret room in the provincial capital, and the man in black robe who met Shi Shaojian in the alley is standing in front of the shrine.

Shortly after he put a stick of incense on the shrine, a dim light flashed in the shrine, and a little ghost floated out from it, with dull eyes floating in the air.

"how's it going?"

"Already given it to him."

"Okay! Good job!"

The little ghost who had a dull face suddenly had a sudden change in his aura, his dull eyes suddenly became bright, and he asked questions to the man in black robes.

The black-robed man bowed slightly when the voice sounded and reported to him respectfully.

"Shi Jian is so arrogant that he disdains our Eternal Life Alliance. He probably wouldn't have thought that we would start with his son!"

"From the moment he chooses to protect his son, he must be restrained by us, unless he wants to never do it again!"

"You did a good job on this matter. I will help you ask for credit from the alliance leader."

"Thank you, sir!"

…………

After Li Mu returned to the Demon-Conquering Hall, Shi Jian had already gotten up and was boxing in the yard.

After Li Mu greeted him, he went back to his room and changed his clothes. When he came out, Shi Shaojian also appeared in the lobby.

"Junior brother, when are you going to leave?"

Shi Shaojian looked at Li Mu who came to him and asked. His words made Li Mu stunned. This was the first time Shi Shaojian took the initiative to talk to him.

"tomorrow."

Li Mu had already told Shi Jian that he planned to continue traveling and had stayed in the provincial capital long enough.

"What a pity. I also wanted to say that if junior brother stays for a few more days, I will be free to take you shopping!"

Li Mu's mouth twitched when he heard Shi Shaojian's words.

During the time he moved in, Shi Shaojian seemed very busy in his eyes.

The next day, Li Mu packed his luggage and said goodbye to Shi Jian and his son, and then continued northward.

On the third night after Li Mu set out, the closed door of the Demon-Conquering Hall quietly opened a gap, and Shi Shaojian was seen sneaking out carefully and quietly.

Soon he came to an old courtyard and found a place at random. Shi Shaojian couldn't wait to sit cross-legged, put his hands on his knees, inhaled deeply and exhaled lightly.

After he completely calmed down, he took out a charm from his clothes and placed it between his eyebrows. Then he intertwined his hands and made a strange handprint.

After a gust of wind passed by, Shi Shaojian felt his body light up, as if he had been blown up by the wind.

When he opened his eyes, he saw his body sitting cross-legged on the ground motionless with his eyes closed, and his Yang Shen suddenly came out of his body, unharmed by the strong wind between heaven and earth.

"That person really didn't lie to me, he really succeeded!!!"

Looking at his body sitting cross-legged on the ground, an ecstatic smile appeared on Shi Shaojian's face.

Originally, he was worried that the man in black robe would leave some tricks on the secret method, so he studied hard for several days before he dared to try it.

Unexpectedly, the effect was unexpectedly good. After several tests without finding anything wrong, Shi Shaojian Yang Shen returned to his body. After a while, he took off the talisman on his forehead, got up and returned to the Demon-Conquering Hall.

His father was not alarmed.

………

In Renjia Town, a classic car came quietly. Ren Fa and Ren Tingting got out of the car. The servants of the Ren family who had been notified had already come to the door to wait. After they unloaded their luggage, Ren Fa asked Ren Tingting to go back.

Rest while he went to Yizhuang with Li Mu's letter.

"Master, what did Master Ren want to do with you just now? Did he ask you to check Feng Shui again?"

When Ren Fa was leaving, Qiu Sheng happened to be riding his bicycle to Yizhuang. At a quick glance, he saw that the person in the car was Ren Fa and curiously asked Uncle Jiu.

The Feng Shui of the Ren family cannot be ignored. Last time a zombie appeared. Looking at the Feng Shui again, I wonder what kind of powerful character will appear.

"No, it was Amu who met Mr. Ren in the provincial capital and asked him to deliver a letter back."

Uncle Jiu's words made Qiu Sheng's eyes light up, and he quickly came up to ask.

"Is there a letter from Amu? Is the provincial capital more lively than Renjia Town?"

"What, you really want to go?"

"Of course... I don't want to think about it anymore, I still have to serve you, old man, are you right, Master?"

Qiu Sheng originally wanted to answer that of course he wanted to go, but seeing Uncle Jiu's unkind expression, he immediately changed his mind.

"You have now reached the threshold of the Taoist realm. You need to stabilize your realm and learn more about it later."

Uncle Jiu sighed. In the past, his disciples were not worried about their progress, but now he is worried about his disciples' progress.

After Qiu Sheng has established a foothold in the Taoist realm, even if he doesn't want to go out, Uncle Jiu will kick him out to practice. Without seeing the outside world, there is no future for him to work behind closed doors. When the time comes, he will only have Wen Cai as his disciple.

Maybe this is the trouble of happiness!

"By the way, Master, I've already gone to see what you told me before, and it's pretty much what you guessed!"

It turns out that during the time when Li Mu was no longer in Renjia Town, a strange thing happened in the village near the Songzi Empress Temple where Gu Gu was located.

A villager was found dead at home with a wound about a finger wide on his head. His expression was blank before he died, and he seemed to have been fatally struck before he had time to react.

Because it was suspected of homicide, the village chief reported the matter to the security team, who sent someone to do an autopsy. It was found that the man's brain had disappeared and not a trace remained.

There is no way for ordinary people to peel off the brain so cleanly through wounds, so this became the Yizhuang case, and the body was sent to Yizhuang for rest.

When Uncle Jiu heard the comment from the person who delivered the body, he immediately felt that something was not right, so he started examining the body again after the person left.

Finally, some black hair was found in the two rooms of the deceased, and there was a faint evil and fishy smell on it.

After checking the fatal wound, Uncle Jiu sent Qiu Sheng to find the deceased's house to check if there were still the same hairs. Qiu Sheng took out a white square cloth and opened it, and there were several black hairs on it.

This kind of hair does not look like human hair, it is thin and soft, but looks like animal down.

"Master, do you know who killed this person?"

Seeing the expression on Uncle Jiu's face, Qiu Sheng asked curiously.

"Hmm...the one that's causing harm is probably the tapir!"

"Tapir? What is this?"

"This is not a thing, it is a monster with the human body and the head of an animal, a long nose and mouth, and a long slender tongue that can pierce the human skull. This monster likes to eat brains and usually comes out to cause trouble when there is no moon."

After hearing Uncle Jiu's words, Qiu Sheng couldn't help but recall the night before he found the deceased. It seemed that in his memory there was really no moon that day.

"Then what should we do now? Should we tell the security team the news?"

"What's the use of telling them? Can you provide evidence?"

I also have some headaches for Uncle Jiu from the security team. As the saying goes, when a scholar meets a soldier, he cannot explain why he is right. Even a famous person like Uncle Jiu will inevitably be embarrassed in front of them. If it is the security team of Renjia Town, then it is still

No need to have a headache, it happens to be from a neighboring town.

I found Strange Beasts from the Classic of Mountains and Seas and made some changes. Let’s use it as a new plot first.

It would not be good for the protagonist to stay any longer, because once he discovers Shi Shaojian's activities, he will inevitably conflict with him. At this time, Shi Shaojian will inevitably kill the protagonist to silence him for the sake of his son. It is better to leave first when nothing happens, and then do something else.

The local government found a clue related to Shi Shaojian, thus avoiding a direct conflict.
