I am the main soul in the soul banner

Chapter 985 Layout

The dusk is vast.

Wanning County, despite the undercurrents, is peaceful.

Probably because Wanning County has such a strong and capable commander to support it, even outsiders would not want to fight with the commander of Wanning County.

As a result, many frauds and robberies were turned into transactions that both parties were willing to make under such supervision.

A young man in a black robe stood outside the gate of the courtyard.

A man and a woman also came with them.

The man was very strong, like a bear.

The women are graceful and very beautiful.

"Is this the place?" The young man stared at the courtyard.

He said in a cold voice: "This snake demon has been on the run for so long, and she dived into the forbidden land, making it difficult for us to find her. She is really amazing, she came all the way from outside the pass to the most powerful place in the capital."

"It's a pity that she still couldn't escape my pursuit."

"Long Qi, what are you waiting for? Let's break this place down and catch her out!" The tough guy cursed.

"She's gone."

The black-robed young man called Long Qi had a gloomy expression.

"what?!"

Xiong Sheng was furious and shouted, "She has been running for so long that she has already digested all the Dragon Spirit Holy Medicine. If we can't catch up with her, I'm afraid we won't even be able to drink the soup. This damn bitch, if I catch her, I will make her live a life worse than death!"

Long Qi raised his hand and said, "Be patient."

"The Dragon Spirit Holy Medicine has not been refined by a great alchemist. Swallowing it whole will damage your lungs."

"Didn't you hear what Brother Long said?" The woman rang the bell on her wrist and said calmly, "She was injured by us. She can't even recover from her injuries after entering the forbidden land, let alone conceal her own aura. As long as we follow her aura, we will definitely find her."

"This damn forbidden land, I can't even fly. It takes months to move between the two places, and it takes several years to find someone."

Xiong Sheng suppressed his anger and stopped cursing.

However, he continued to complain about the forbidden land of God, and seemed not to want to come here at all.

Long Qi glanced at Xiong Sheng who was still angry.

He said in a relaxed tone: "The forbidden land is controlled by the Taoist Shangqing. If a cultivator wants to enter, he has to pay a large sum of money. We followed Bu Canghua into this place, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise."

"In the past few years, I have gained opportunities both big and small."

"Should have left quietly."

"After all, there is still a sense of anger in my heart."

dong dong.

The man in the yard opened the door with confusion.

When he saw the three people outside the door, he didn't look surprised.

He had seen many strangers like this before, but he didn't have any heirlooms at home, so he was wary of strangers coming to his house and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I'd like to know where the woman who used to live here has gone?" Long Qi asked with a smile, looking like a really elegant and kind gentleman.

"Oh, you mean Marshal Shou's wife."

The man suddenly realized, but frowned again: "Who are you?"

"We are old acquaintances of her."

The man was indeed surprised when he heard it, and after a closer look, he smiled and said, "Oh, I recognized the wrong people. I thought you were foreigners, but you are Marshal Shou's relatives. It's really that your clothes and appearance are too similar to those foreigners."

"Marshal Shou and his wife moved out half a month ago."

"He said he was going to live in the West Hill."

"This sky..." The man looked at the sky. At this late hour, Marshal Shou must not be in the government office. He must have gone back to his residence in West Hill. He said, "You probably won't be able to find Marshal Shou if you go to the county office now. Why don't you go to West Hill to look for him directly?"

"Xishan?"

The three of them looked at each other.

"Yes, Xishan."

"It's really rich. It's said to be a temple hall. It's easy to recognize."

Now that they had a direction, the three of them headed towards the West Mountain.

The temple is nestled against the mountain and beside the water, covering half of the Western Hills. Its size alone is enough to stop people in their tracks.

Long Qi watched from the hillside for a long time.

Looking at the warriors in green clothes coming in and out of the gate.

He narrowed his eyes and shook his head, "Not right, Shou He is the head of the county government, and he is also a first-class warrior with magic weapons."

"Although we have the means to control them, there are still many other warriors in this temple."

At dusk, there were two or three convoys coming in and out.

According to estimates, there were at least three to five hundred people living in this temple.

Ordinary people posed no threat to them, but they had to guard against the large number of third-rate and second-rate warriors, not to mention the first-rate warriors who were in charge among them.

The woman was surprised and said, "They may not take action."

"We can't gamble."

Young Master Long shook his head and pondered, then said, "Since she is devoted to that useless Shou He, as long as we can contact Shou He, we can tell him about Bu Zanghua's origins. Once a man knows that his wife is a demon, I think he will think about it carefully."

"We can ask our senior brothers for help. I heard that they have also come to the forbidden land of the gods." Xiong Sheng lowered his voice.

The woman scolded, “Are you crazy?”

"Even if the brothers and sisters are willing to help, will we still have a share of the holy medicine?"

"What about us now?"

"Don't worry."

……

The next day.

Shou He, who was riding a fast horse on the official road, grabbed the reins.

He stared quietly at the man who was crossing the official road.

The man was dressed like a Taoist priest, with a long banner hanging high in his right hand and a bell in his left hand. When he walked past the Linjiao horse, he twitched his nose and looked over in surprise.

He said suspiciously, "Sir, you have a strong demonic aura. Is there anything wrong with you recently?"

Shou He immediately thought of his wife at home, and the old immortal said the same thing at that time.

No matter where the lady came from, she was still his lady after all.

Shou He rode his horse and was about to leave.

The Taoist sighed, held a long banner, crossed the official road, and walked towards the bamboo forest.

When the Taoist priest passed by, Shou He felt as if his body was stabbed by a steel needle. He stared at the Taoist priest's back and shouted loudly, "Where are you going, Taoist priest?"

"Riverbank creek mouth."

"What to do?"

The Taoist didn't answer him but continued walking. Shou He, who was about to dismount, found that the Taoist was no longer there, so he quickly patted the horse and sent it back to the county government office.

The old horse knows the way and will go back by itself, but he followed the direction the Taoist left. He felt a murderous aura from the Taoist.

The murderous intent is as sharp as a needle.

The stabbed man rises.

The other party must be a master to be able to develop such murderous aura.

As the chief detective of Wanning County, he did not want such a person to appear, but since the other party had come, he could not ignore it.

No matter who the other party wants to kill or who wants to be killed, he will stop it.

After passing through the bamboo forest path, we arrived at a teahouse at the foot of a hill.

The Taoist sat down calmly and ordered a cup of tea.

After a while, a dark-skinned man with a heavy bag on his back and wearing tight clothes stood opposite and said with a smile, "Master, is there anyone here?"

"no one."

The young Taoist nodded slightly.

"Great."

The dark-skinned man sat down and called out, "Shopkeeper, a pot of tea."

"But I advise you to leave early." The Taoist smiled. He did not feel any resentment towards the official because of his familiarity. Instead, he was really advising him not to get involved in some bizarre things because of his curiosity, which might lead to very serious consequences.

"Oh."

Shou He chuckled.

He was all too familiar with this kind of conversation.

Every time we handle a case, someone will always say this.

Just like when he was investigating the Blood Jade Gourd some time ago, Zhao Qingyi said the same thing even though he didn't know him. It seems that this Taoist is also a good person.

"Or maybe you yourself have been involved in it for a long time."

"Appreciate further details."

"You have lived in the third house in Taohua Lane in Wanning County for a long time, right?"

"Yes."

"How many people are there in your family?"

"Two."

"That's right."

"I have been trying to find it. Since the officer has lived there, either you are a monster, or your wife is a monster."

There was no expected outcry.

There was no angry scolding.

There is only silence and indifference.

The dark and ordinary man said calmly: "So what?"

A strange look flashed in the Taoist's eyes, and he said calmly: "Compared to the police, you have checked the files of the county government. Even if there is no police, you will be alert. There are always children missing. Didn't the police wonder where they went?"

"Don't forget, children are a great tonic for monsters."

"Master, do you mean that the children were eaten by monsters?"

"Of course."

Shou He was furious, but he still suppressed his anger.

Try to be calm and say, "I already know where the child has gone."

"Since humans can be divided into good and bad, demons can also be good and bad. Not to mention, demons are also a kind of cultivators, and they are no longer as absurd as they were in the wild."

"Infinite Heavenly Lord."

"It seems that your wife has said a lot to you, sir."

A look of disappointment flashed across the Taoist's eyes.

He certainly hadn't counted on that.

I didn't expect Bu Zanghua to dare to reveal her origins so boldly.

There are fools who are willing to believe it.

"Why waste your time talking to him!" The tall monk hiding in the back hall came out with a grim smile.

He wiped the blood off his hands and said, "I have checked all around. There is no ambush. I have also killed all those ants in the teahouse. There is absolutely no one who can disturb us from doing our work."

"Take him down, and we won't have to worry about forcing him to step out of the hidden flower."

"If Bu Zanghua remains unmoved, cut off this man's head and send it to her so that she can see it clearly."

"What's this move called?"

"Correct."

"Stop the grass and scare the snake."

Shou He's face changed drastically.

"Now you know you're afraid?"

"late!"

Xiong Sheng laughed out loud.

Shou He stared at Xiong Sheng intently and said in a cold voice: "Mr. Su and his family run the teahouse honestly, but they didn't expect to suffer from your vicious hands."

When I thought about how it was because of me and my husband that the teahouse family was destroyed.

Shou He suddenly became furious.

He grabbed the Blood God Halberd behind him.

Veins twisted, he said sternly: "You really deserve to die!"

call out.

The halberd exploded with a loud bang, slashing out a long, sharp blood-red breath.

boom.

The monk, who was as tall as a bear, took it hard.

He used the back of his hand to wipe away the blood from the corner of his mouth.

He laughed and said, "What's wrong with killing a few ants? They are just grass in the mud. I am afraid of getting my boots dirty by stepping on them while walking through the mud. It's nothing unusual."

"I'm not angry that my chance was snatched away from me."

"Why are you angry? What qualifications do you have to be angry?"

"Ants!"
