"I didn't attack mortals!" Bai Ying immediately retorted with a voice filled with urgency.
He Li pointed at Bai Ying and shouted angrily: "You said no! Many people encountered ghosts on the mountain and were injured by you! They are still unconscious!"
"I, I just scared them. Who knew they fell down when they were running away? It was all their own injuries. I didn't hit them..."
Hearing this, Bai Qingzhou immediately recalled the words that Capt. Shen said when he was in the store. Looking back carefully, he found that he did not hear Capt. Shen saying that this incident had caused human life. At this point, he couldn't help but wonder. : "Then why do you want to scare them if you are so good?"
After hearing this, the white shadow staggered to the ground, and then the entire white shadow on its body disappeared like smoke blown away by the wind, and finally a thin figure was revealed. The figure looked only more than ten years old, and still had red cheeks. The little boy with raven hair and bright eyes looked very lost and decadent at the moment.
He lowered his head and murmured: "Both my father and mother were killed..."
Bai Qingzhou could feel the pain on the little boy's body, and he looked very pitiful. He paused and asked gently: "You said your parents were killed. What's going on?"
The little boy sat on the ground, with his legs spread out, tears streaming from his eyes, and he slowly said sadly: "Just some time ago, my parents and I were still living well in the mountains, and suddenly someone broke in and burned down our home. Well, after forcing my parents to become monks, I killed them... Wuwu~"
Seeing this, the four of them looked at each other in confusion. Bai Qingzhou continued to ask: "Then do you know what that person looks like?"
"I know... that man held a long sword, and his aura was just like yours... He also planted many small flags in the door of our house. My parents were killed by him!" At the end of the sentence, the little boy sounded sad and angry.
Hearing this, Wu Haoming, who was standing behind, suddenly said: "It may be that a cultivator came over and used spells to burn the mountain, and also set up a formation to strangle the parents of this monster, but... I don't know why it can Escaped."
Bai Qingzhou looked at Wu Haoming and guessed: "Maybe it's because its aura was weak and it was not noticed, so it escaped..." After a pause, he turned to look at the little boy and said:
"Your parents scare mortals, and if they are seen by cultivators, they will definitely be exterminated. Even if you are a spirit, you will not

An exception can be made!”
Hearing this, the little boy seemed very angry and said loudly: "No! It's the mortals who are wrong! They worked hard to collect the resurrection grass! As a result, we all had no spiritual energy to drink, so my parents came out to scare them, and we didn't Hurt people’s lives!”
"Ah?!" He Li covered his mouth in surprise, looking very surprised.
"There are other things like this..." Bai Qingzhou was thoughtful, and after thinking for a while, he slowly said: "You are a spirit, and it is normal to survive by sucking spiritual energy, but why have you been safe before?"
"Originally, we can speed up the growth of the Resurrection Grass by absorbing its spiritual energy, but this can only be done when it needs a mature stage. But I don't know what happened to the mortals recently. They gathered so hard that they also picked up many immature Resurrection Grasses, so we were left with nothing. Eat, dad and mom scared them just to leave something to eat."
Hearing this, Bai Qingzhou nodded slightly to express his understanding, but then his ears twitched slightly, and he immediately turned his head to look at the roots of the tree in the distance, and then shouted loudly: "Come over if you see it!"
After hearing the words, three people dressed as police officers walked out from the root of the tree, it was none other than the three heads of the Shen Police Department.
The three of them were frightened. After having enough rest in place, under the leadership of Shen Captou, the three of them boldly pursued the ghost's escape route. Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived, they were captured before they could see the situation clearly. Bai Qingzhou discovered.
"Fellow heroes!" Mr. Shen stepped forward and said generously, cupping his hands.
Bai Qingzhou said calmly: "I was passing by the immortal master and asked you to come over and want to ask a few questions."
"Immortal Master!?"
Hearing this, the three of them were shocked. They immediately knelt down and kowtowed, shouting: "I have seen the immortal master!"
"No need to be polite, let me ask you, did anyone come here to slay demons some time ago?" Bai Qingzhou asked directly.
The leader, Shen Baotou, shook his head blankly and said: "I have never heard of an immortal master coming..." He paused, his eyes lit up, and said: "The city lord once went to ask for an immortal master to be stationed in Honzhou City. He He promised to deal with it at the time, or he might have secretly..."
"Then do you know why the city suddenly increased its efforts to collect resurrection grass?"
"I don't know..." Shen Captou shook his head blankly.
At this time, the young detective beside him raised his hand and said nervously: "Xian, Master Xian, I...I know
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
!”
"Then tell me about it."
"I once heard in the city that a famous customer in the capital wanted a lot of resurrecting incense and placed a large order. The city lord then ordered everyone to pick more and refine it into incense." The young detective said quickly.
"That's it..." Bai Qingzhou nodded, then he looked at the little boy sitting on the ground and smiled: "Then it will be easy to deal with. Just tell the city lord here not to collect too much, and then you can feel at ease. I practiced here."
The little boy looked shocked and said hesitantly: "You, you won't kill me?"
Bai Qingzhou chuckled and said: "Why kill you? You only did it to scare mortals for the sake of survival, and you never hurt humans. How can this be a crime? What's more, the duty of a spirit is to take care of you. Local people, with you here, you may be able to protect the safety of the people entering the mountain."
"..." The little boy fell into silence for a while, and then said: "Thank you, senior! Senior's actions today will be remembered by Qiyang in his heart!"
It turns out his name is Qiyang.
Bai Qingzhou nodded nonchalantly, then pointed at Mr. Shen and said to the little boy: "Don't do anything scary in the future when you encounter this matter. If you have anything to do, talk to this person. From now on, you must protect the safety of the people in this place." , do you understand?”
Hearing this, the little boy nodded heavily.
"Okay", Bai Qingzhou looked at Shen Baotou and the other three, and said: "The three of you will take my junior brother and junior sister to explain this matter to the local city lord, and explain to him that in the future you must not collect too much Resurrection Grass, as long as If you control the collection according to the previous frequency, you will not encounter ghosts and ghosts again, and it can also speed up the maturation of herbs for you, which is a win-win situation for both parties! Do you understand?"
"Young man, I understand!" Shen and the others responded immediately.
"Xiao Zuo Xiaoli, please make one more trip to finish this matter and then go back to the inn!"
"Don't worry, senior brother!" He Zuo agreed readily.
He Li nodded slightly at the side.
After Bai Qingzhou directly ordered everyone's affairs, he turned to look at Wu Haoming and said, "Then let's go back."
After that, Bai Qingzhou sacrificed the [Wind Controlling Crane], and the two of them jumped up. Under the control, the magic weapon took off and flew towards the city instantly.
This scene immediately caused a burst of exclamations from the three detectives.
