They found a secluded place, with Taoist Tian and others standing guard, while Su Cheng closed his eyes and began to figure out the whereabouts of the monster.
The power of Su Cheng's Yuan Shen filled the void, and he used Taoism to calculate silently. Countless qi machines came from all directions, containing various complicated messages. He needed to explore them one by one to find useful information.
Looking at the endless messages in the void, entangled with each other, and endless, Su Cheng can be regarded as understanding why so few people are proficient in the secrets of heaven. Unless they are gifted, otherwise, facing so many messages will sooner or later make people change.
Go crazy.
"July...Rongcheng...monster...skinned..."
Using only a few clues to search accurately from the void, it would be difficult or easy to find Su Cheng.
With his spiritual cultivation, there is not much difficulty in dealing with these endless messages, but it is just a bit cumbersome.
Half an hour later, Su Cheng stopped exploring and said to the people around him:
"Although it didn't go well, we still have some clues. According to the information from the investigation, this monster has not left Chengdu. Otherwise, it will come out to harm people."
Heavenly secrets are not omniscient and omnipotent, but they are about getting what you want from the chaotic information of heaven and earth.
How much information is obtained and whether it is all correct depends entirely on the person's cultivation ability.
After experiencing this incident, Su Cheng's fear of Tianji's calculations has become much less.
Su Cheng had been worried before that his identity and origin would be seen by those powerful people at a glance, and he might even have the illusion that what he was doing now might be under the nose of some powerful person.
But now it seems that Su Cheng's worries are somewhat unnecessary. Those powerful people may have great cultivation, but they are far from omniscient and omnipotent.
Even saints sometimes make miscalculations, let alone these great powers, who cannot know all the secrets.
If everything could really be predicted, or there was omniscience and omnipotence, then it would be impossible for such a person to pay attention to little people like Su Cheng.
At this time, Su Cheng didn't get much information from the calculations, but even so, combined with his understanding of the original plot, it was enough for him to guess some things.
"Then what should we do next? Should we continue to wait here, or should we talk?"
Taoist Tian didn't ask too much, he just asked what to do.
"From the information I learned, this matter will later involve a scholar. We just need to find the scholar and wait patiently. This monster will inevitably appear."
Later, Su Cheng and others made some inquiries in the city, and after a lot of effort, they found out where the scholar lived.
Nowadays, the people in the city are in a state of panic because of the monster incident. Even if there are pedestrians on the streets, they leave in a hurry. No one is willing to talk to strangers unless there is money to clear the way.
Su Cheng and others came to the Lotus Bridge in the south of the city and rented a courtyard directly.
Looking at the elegant courtyard aside, Zhao Min looked curious and said:
"This is where the scholar is? It's a pretty good place. Anyone with a courtyard like this must be a wealthy family."
Su Cheng nodded and said with a smile:
"Yes, we can know from the calculation that the scholars in the courtyard here will encounter the monster in two or three days."
Speaking of this, Su Cheng was also surprised. From An Youyu at the beginning, to Tao Wangsan, Ning Caichen, etc., the monsters in the Liaozhai world really preferred scholars.
But this is normal. Scholars have literary talents and are mostly simple-minded. When dealing with such people, those monsters will probably have a much easier time.
Tread!
Taoist Tian and Xin Shisi Niang walked over from the side, then pointed to the courtyard and said:
"The scholar here is named Wang Qinglai. His family has considerable assets. He just married a lovely wife two years ago. The family is harmonious and there are no problems."
At this moment, they don't know much about the monster, and they don't even know what kind of monster it is. Naturally, they need to inquire more to avoid the monster appearing, and they may not be able to discover it.
"There are no other problems found within a ten-mile radius. The monster should still be somewhere else."
Xin Shisi Niang whispered that as a fox tribe, she would have no problem communicating with the demon tribe in this place.
Just like human beings, there are good and evil beings among the demon clan. Xin Shiiniang was born with a strong spiritual sense. After inquiring with several local kind-hearted demon clan, she did not get much information.
"Let's stay here first. The monster will appear immediately without us searching for it. I think at this moment, it should have set its sights on the scholar."
Su Cheng shook his head, and then returned to the manor with Taoist Tian and others to rest.
Zhao Min and Xiao Zhao were still practicing hard, while Su Cheng, Taoist Tian and Xin Shisi Niang, checked the situation in the courtyard from time to time, preparing to respond in time.
On this day, Su Cheng was still familiar with Taoism when he saw Taoist Tian walk in, nodded to Su Cheng and said:
"He showed up. Early this morning, Wang Qinglai brought back a woman. But... the strange thing is that I didn't notice anything wrong with her. The same goes for Xin Shisi Niang. She didn't see anything wrong with this woman."
Su Cheng was not surprised. This monster could hide for so long without leaking any traces. Naturally, it was not a simple character.
"Let's go and see the situation together."
Later, Su Cheng and Taoist Tian came to the top floor of the nearby courtyard, and Xin Shiniang was also here at this time.
Xin Shisi Niang pointed to the courtyard but said nothing.
Su Cheng looked up, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw a young man and woman having an intimate conversation at the rockery in the courtyard.
The man was handsome and dressed in a white shirt. Su Cheng didn't pay much attention to it because he was none other than the scholar Wang Qinglai, so there must be nothing wrong with him.
The woman has a soft figure and fair complexion. She looks like an extremely beautiful young woman, without any evil spirit or anything special.
"No wonder no one can find it. It's really a good trick..."
Su Cheng's face was solemn, and from the look in his eyes, he didn't even notice the problem.
If it weren't for Tianji's calculation, Su Cheng would not think that there was something wrong with the woman in front of him.
"What kind of monster is this? Or...does it have special magic or treasures? Otherwise, why can't you see any problems at all?"
Taoist Tian said softly that based on his family education, he could not figure out the origin of previous monsters, so he knew it was something serious.
Xin Shiniang on the side shook her head, she didn't have any clues.
Su Cheng looked carefully at the woman in the courtyard in the distance, compared it with the original plot of Liaozhai, and said:
"Didn't I say before that a monster will skin itself when it encounters a woman? I think this woman's appearance is exactly that of the woman who died before. Perhaps this is also a way to hide her whereabouts..." This chapter has been completed!
