Mr. Zhao's concubine committed suicide by throwing herself into a well in the middle of the night.And the next day after the incident, when the concubine's body was found, Mr. Zhao called seven or eight strong men, but they were unable to salvage the female body.
Mission Difficulty: Samsung

Task reward: [-] contribution points.

Songbai County.
Zhou You knew its location.

It's a bit farther than Qingniu Village, but not far.

"I'll take this task." Zhou You thought for a while, but still took it.

The area of ​​this world is much larger than that of Lanxing, and the area of ​​Qingzhou alone is equivalent to the country of his previous life.

According to Zhou You's memory, in Qingzhou alone, there are almost thousands of counties, dozens of big cities, and Qingzhou City with a population of tens of millions.

It is conceivable what kind of pressure the Exorcist will face.

Batch after batch of training camp students were recruited, and it never stopped.

Basically, hundreds of people become trainee demon slayers every year, but no more than one-tenth of them can be promoted to official demon slayers.

Basically, the demon divisions are operating at overload, and there is simply not enough manpower.

Zhou You remembered that his master Xu Ling once mentioned that when he was at his peak, he even took on three demon slaying missions at once.

Because the locations of these three missions are close to each other, after completing one mission of eliminating demons, you can immediately rush to the location of the next mission, which can save a lot of time.

"Okay." After the delicate woman registered the information, she handed over the case file to Zhou You.

After leaving the Tianxing Temple, Zhou You didn't stop, went directly to the stable to ask for a horse, and set off directly towards Songbai County.

When he was resting on the road, he had time to take out the mission file and look it up.

"My concubine is called Li Yan. I spent several hundred taels of silver to marry her back. She is also considered a duty on weekdays. She has not done anything out of bounds."

"She is usually kind to the servants, and she can get along with the principal. I have never heard of her offending anyone."

"The body was found on the morning of September [-]st. It is a habit in my house to get together for breakfast every day. As a result, Li Yan didn't come, so I sent someone to look for her."

"As a result, her body was found at the well"

"When I heard the news, I was confused. How could Li Yan commit suicide when she was so good-looking?"

"But when I saw Li Yan's body under the well, I was also taken aback."

"It's been less than a day since she died. Her body is as white as if it had been soaked in water for a few days."

"Especially those eyes, which were wide open, exuding an evil energy, as if they were still alive, staring at me, which made me break out in cold sweat."

"Later, I went to the county government to report to the county government. After a few arrests arrived, they led people to investigate the room and the scene. I thought that Li Yan should have committed suicide, not the victim. Let us salvage and collect the body."

"I didn't think too much about it, so I asked some young and strong servants to pick up Li Yan's body!"

"Guess what? Five or six strong men broke three or four ropes, but they didn't pull the corpse up!"

"Next, something even weirder happened. At night, someone in Li Yan's yard faintly heard a woman's cry. The cry turned out to be Li Yan's..."

"I also sent someone to look in the yard in the middle of the night to see who was crying, and it turned out that the crying came from under the well..."

The content of the case file ends here.

Zhou You was also slightly lost in thought.

This Li Yan's death was very strange, according to what Master Zhao said, she had no reason to commit suicide at all.

And after he died, so many strange things happened behind it, what kind of secret was hidden behind it.

"This task is a bit tricky."

Zhou You shook his head and continued on his way, trying to reach Songbai County tonight.

bang bang bang~
Songbai County.

Today is the Fireworks Festival, the streets are endlessly lively, crowded with people, like an incomparably bright golden river.

Street vendors shouting loudly on both sides, running around with lanterns, children playing and playing, handsome rich men, girls chattering non-stop. Everyone's face is filled with festive joy.

However, the Zhao Mansion, one of the Songbai clans, was in a state of panic at the moment.

The servant girl looked terrified and restless, with thick dark circles under her eyes, as if she hadn't rested for a long time.

And the brightly lit hall was also gloomy at the moment.

"Master, can this Daoist Qingyun really dispel Li Yan's resentment?" A woman couldn't help asking.

She is Mr. Zhao's regular wife, Mrs. Zheng.

"I don't know either, this Taoist Master Qingyun is already the best Taoist priest we can invite here." Zhao Wan, the master of the Zhao Mansion, was also very disturbed, pacing back and forth in the hall.

At this time, his eldest son, Xin Zhao, who was handsome and talented, interjected: "Didn't the county government say to report this matter to Qingzhou City, and someone from the Demon Division will come to deal with it soon?"

"Who knows when the people from the Exorcist Department will come. Daoist Qingyun also said that today is the fireworks festival. You can use this auspicious aura to eliminate the resentment in Li Yan's mouth." Zhao Wan sighed.

It has been six days since Li Yan committed suicide by throwing herself into a well, and he went to the county government to urge her every day.

The county magistrate also made it clear that it is beyond his business to ask how the exorcism division arranges it. It is useless for you to come and bother me. You can rest assured at home and wait for the news.

In desperation, seeing Zhao's mansion panicked by the corpse of the woman from Shuijing, and even the servants and maids left for more than half, Zhao Wan could only spend a lot of money to invite Daoist Qingyun, who is said to be very effective in Songbai County, to come and do something. Can pick up Li Yan's body.

Xin Zhao shook his head: "I always feel that this Taoist priest is unreliable. Don't be self-defeating when the time comes, and we will be in big trouble!"

"Daoist Qingyun has been in for so long, and you just said such frustrating words. Why didn't you say it at that time?" Zhao Wan snorted coldly.

Xin Zhao looked a bit ugly, but he didn't dare to refute his father, so he could only sit on the chair and say nothing.

"Okay, master. Isn't Xin'er worried about making any more troubles?" Mrs. Zheng came out to smooth things over.

Zhao Wan was also depressed these days and stopped talking.

For a moment, the hall fell into an eerie silence.

There was panic on everyone's face, but mixed with a trace of expectation.

Looking forward to the fact that Daoist Qingyun is not a charlatan, he can really eliminate the resentment of the female corpse.

"Ahhh!!!"

Suddenly, a terrified scream broke the dead silence.
