Cheng Yu listened to the discussions of the women below from a height, and was filled with doubts.
So he immediately summoned his soul, and then took out the Wu Jun Token from his arms. Just as he was about to inject a breath with his index finger to summon a nearby Wu Jun Palace patrol envoy, he suddenly noticed something strange in the periphery of the crowd at his feet. He turned his head and looked over there, only to see a woman dressed in black gauze appearing there more than once.
He is wearing a black gauze curtain hat, and through the black gauze, it is vaguely visible that his appearance is very beautiful and fair. At this moment, he is looking at him in mid-air in horror.
This woman was fair-skinned, beautiful, and slender. She was hidden behind the crowd. Cheng Yu, being a sparrow, didn't even see her.
At this time, he summoned his soul and took out the Martial Lord Token. The beautiful woman opposite seemed to be able to see him, showing a look of fear, and was about to turn around to run away, only to be noticed by Cheng Yu.
Moreover, in addition to her white skin and unique beauty, this woman does not have three soul fires in her body.
Dead souls...
Although there are shade trees in the clearing in the forest, they cannot block the sun. Even though it is past noon, the soul of the dead cannot resist the sun.
There is something very strange about this woman.
When the woman saw Cheng Yu staring at her, her eyes widened and she stepped back in horror.
Cheng Yu turned around and slowly flew towards the woman.
When he reached the top of everyone's head, the beautiful woman finally couldn't hold herself any longer, a trace of black energy leaked out of her body, and she disappeared in an instant.
Cheng Yu frowned, thinking that it was impossible for this dead soul to disappear into thin air.
So he immediately used his consciousness and noticed that in the small river next to him, there was something carrying a cold air, quickly flowing down the river, and in the blink of an eye it had slipped out more than ten feet away. p>
Can also escape from water...
Cheng Yu secretly laughed in his heart, this woman was so panicked that she ran into the cat's arms like a blind mouse.
Immediately he started using the water technique.
"Wow!"
"Come out."
After Cheng Yu finished speaking, a group of transparent water bubbles as tall as a person suddenly rose up from the surface of the seemingly peaceful river.
The sunlight is refracted by the water bubbles on the ground, giving off a jagged light.
There seems to be something bumping around inside the transparent blister, and I want to break free, but I can't.
Seeing that he was still dishonest, Cheng Yu picked up the Wu Jun Token in his hand, touched it with his middle finger, pulled out a breath, and flipped his hand to flick the bubble.
An invisible breath instantly penetrated into the bubble.
"Ah!"
A woman screamed inside the bubble.
"Crash!"
The water bubbles collapsed, watering the grass on the ground like falling rain. The sound of rushing water caused everyone who was talking upstream to look over.
But all of them are mortal to the naked eye. Apart from some water drops on the ground, there is no trace of a beautiful woman soaked all over, lying powerlessly on the grass.
Cheng Yu fell in front of the woman and saw that her black gauze and curtain hat had turned into pieces of pitch black scales, tightly wrapping her whole body.
Cheng Yu walked to a height of one foot above the woman, keeping a certain safe distance, and looked at her intently.
"Who are you?"
He opened his mouth to ask, but before the woman could answer, another wave of cold air hit him, and he saw an envoy from the Wujun Palace, wearing a full set of Yin helmets and Yin armor, floating forward.
"I paid my respects to Mr. Cheng. I was just cruising nearby when I suddenly sensed the scent of Lord Wu's token coming from here, so I came here."
Seeing the Japanese parade envoy, he cupped his fists and saluted, Cheng Yu also raised his hands and returned the salute:
"The patrol envoy is polite. I just used Wujun's token to capture the soul of a woman, and this woman's soul is very suspicious... Well, I have a question that I must ask the patrol envoy first."
"Just ask what Mr. Cheng is talking about, and I will tell you everything."
"I wonder if Jiangkou Town is still under the jurisdiction of Qingchuan Wujundian?"
"Yes, it's just on the edge of Qingchuan County, but it's still within the jurisdiction of Qingchuan Wujun Palace."
"Well, what's unusual about these days?"
The patrolman on that day frowned when he heard this, lowered his head and pondered for a while, then clasped his fists and said:
"I happened to be on duty near Jiangkou Town these days, and I noticed a lot of strange movements among the people in the town, and they all said it was haunted. However, I also inspected it carefully and found nothing strange." p>
When Cheng Yu heard this, he pointed to the woman at his feet and said:
"Just look at her."
"Oh?"
The Japanese patrol envoy took one look at the woman on the ground and immediately raised the soul-binding rope in his hand, but did not take action directly.
Covered in pitch black scales, it looks like a dead soul, but it dares to be exposed directly to the sun. How come it has never been discovered before?
It was also the first time that the Japanese patrol envoy encountered such a strange thing, and he immediately asked sharply:
"I am the Japanese patrol envoy under the command of Qingchuan Wujun Palace. Who are you? I have recruited you from the truth."
The woman covered in scales lay motionless on the ground and did not answer.
"If you are not honest, then we will not be polite!"
After saying this, the patrolman threw down the soul-binding rope with a "pop" sound, making the woman tremble all over with fright.
"Speak!"
Seeing that the woman was still holding on to her life, the patrolman raised the soul-binding rope and was about to throw it out, but was stopped by Cheng Yu. Then he winked at the patrolman and once again drew out a breath from the Wujun token.
"Why don't you recruit people from real sources?"
The woman looked up and saw the aura on Cheng Yu's fingertips. She could have been bounced towards her by it. Finally, she got up, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying:
"Sir, forgive me, sir, please let me go back. This little girl has never killed anyone before."
"You must be honest. If it's harmless, I can try to talk some sense into you in front of Mr. Wu."
"It's useless, Lord Wu can't save us either."
Cheng Yu frowned when he heard this, looked at each other and asked:
"Who are you?"
"The little girl is from Qingchuan County. Her surname is Hou and her given name is Siniang."
"Hou Siniang...is it Qian Linhong's side room?"
Cheng Yu heard something familiar at first, but then he remembered who this person was.
The woman kneeling on the ground kowtowed again.
"So, you drowned in the river with the person you had an affair with and turned into a water ghost?"
The woman on the ground nodded again.
The patrolman said "huh?" in surprise, and asked directly:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Since they have drowned, why don't the dead souls report to the underworld, and we and other Wujun Palace patrol envoys have not noticed the dead souls of you two?"
Cheng Yu stared at the dark scales covering Hou Siniang's body at his feet, and suddenly remembered something.
"Let me ask you, did you encounter any strange things in your last life or when you first died?"
Hou Siniang knelt on the ground with her head lowered, just trembling all over. After a while, she shivered and shook her head.
"If you don't tell the truth, then don't blame Mr. Cheng for being rude."
Cheng Yu could see that Hou Siniang was obviously hiding something, and she was about to pop out the Wujun token on her fingertips.
If Hou Siniang felt anything, she would lie completely on the ground and shout:
"I say, I say, sir, please don't play. I am also a miserable person! Wuwuwuwu..."
After Hou Siniang whimpered a few times, she lay on the ground, trembling and said:
"The little girl is the fourth daughter of the Hou family in Qingchuan County. She has two brothers and one sister. Among them, the third brother is the only one who is bad and spends all his time. After beating his parents to death, he even caused a life-threatening lawsuit..." "Hou Sanguan?"
Cheng Yu asked coldly.
Hou Siniang nodded:
"Exactly, Yuan Nu and Qian Rujian, a young man from another branch of the Qian family, had a secret love for each other. They just thought that in a year or two, his parents would come to propose marriage.
Unexpectedly, at some point, the Nu family was attracted by his uncle Qian Linhong. The old thief secretly gave my third brother three hundred taels of silver.
The medicine was bundled upside down and sent to Qian's Mansion.
After about a day and a night, I woke up and found that I had lost my virginity and had no choice but to follow the old thief.
Later, I met Ru Jian again by chance. I knew that after he learned that I was robbed into the Qian Mansion, he still cared about me. He even paid money secretly to meet me, so the two of us rekindled our old relationship... Not wanting what happened to be exposed on the wedding night of the mansion, the old thief was so embarrassed that he tied the hands and feet of the slave and Rujian, gagged his mouth, put them in a wooden box, filled them with stones, took them to the Longxiang River, and threw them alive into the river.
."
After Hou Siniang sobbed twice, she lowered her head and thought for a while, then continued:
"The slave was trapped in the wooden box for a long time. He was already dizzy. Suddenly he felt his body sink. A lot of water poured in around him, and then...
Then I don’t know how long it took, but I just felt that I was light and floating, floating out through the wooden box, and standing in the turbid river water. I could vaguely see the wooden box under my feet, the big man beside me, and a man in black in front of me."
