I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

Chapter 445
Early the next morning.

in the bedroom.

The black-eyed Mao Xiaofang blew out the Dou Da Lantern, fastened the demon-catching bag tightly, and lightly tapped on his lower back to get up.

After a whole night of interrogation, but still found nothing, he was even more sure that there was something wrong with this matter, and he even had some vague guesses in his heart...

"Dong dong dong."

"Dong dong dong."

While meditating, there was a sudden knock on the door, followed by Xiao Hai's anxious voice: "Master, Master, come out and have a look."

Mao Xiaofang's eyelids twitched, he quickly got up and opened the door, just as he walked into the yard, he saw more than a dozen fellow villagers standing together, men and women, old and young, all with anxious faces.

"Master Mao."

"Master Mao..."

Seeing him coming out, the crowd immediately swarmed up.

Mao Xiaofang was used to this kind of scene, and said calmly: "Don't worry, don't worry, just talk to yourself, what happened?"

"Master Mao, we want to ask, are the ghosts caught last night still there?" An old man stared at Mao Xiaofang closely and asked with a complicated expression.

"Of course it's still there." Mao Xiaofang said, "Is there any problem?"

"If those ghosts are still there, it means that Master Lei's ghost summoning spell is not thorough, and he didn't recruit all the ghosts. As a result, the ghosts attacked us in the middle of the night and took our family away. If those ghosts are not there, Master Mao, come on If so, don’t I need to say more?” said the old man.

Mao Xiaofang thumped in his heart, and hurriedly rushed back to his room, but saw that the table was empty, and the monster-catching bag that was placed there had disappeared at some point.

Cold sweat broke out with a bang, at this moment Mao Xiaofang suddenly realized: he seriously underestimated the intensity of this fight, seriously underestimated the cruelty of this fight.

The opponent's methods were one move after another, and even timed each time just right, without giving himself a chance to breathe.

Now that the monster catch bag is gone, it just so happened that there was another ghost disaster last night. What's more serious is that last night Lei Gang insisted on eradicating the evil ghosts, and he was the one who "saved" these ghosts.

So, how should he explain to these folks now?

"What's the matter, Junior Brother?" At this moment, Lei Gang was helped by Lei Xiu, and asked with concern.

Mao Xiaofang shook his head, took a deep breath, turned around and saw Qin Yao, and immediately strode over: "Qin Daochang, I need your help."

Qin Yao nodded and said, "Master Mao, please tell me, as long as I can do it, I can't deny it."

"Just now, during the conversation, the monster-catching bag I left in the room disappeared." Mao Xiaofang said in a low voice, "Can Daoist Qin deduce who did it?"

Qin Yao suddenly realized, and subconsciously raised his eyes to look in the direction of Lei Gang: "It's useless, Master Mao, I don't have enough prestige in Gantian Town, even if I deduce who did it and can't produce definite evidence, Others won't believe it either. But the problem is that metaphysics is the most difficult thing to verify."

Mao Xiaofang's eyes dimmed, and he remained silent.

"What's the matter, Master Mao?" In the courtyard, the old man asked loudly.

Mao Xiaofang cheered up, and slowly came to the crowd: "To be honest, everyone, the Monster Bag was stolen just now, and I guarantee with my life that the ghosts last night must not be the ones in the Monster Bag, because I Stayed up all night last night, interrogating them all the time."

The crowd suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were different.

At this moment, no one erupted, not even a voice of doubt, it was purely that Mao Xiaofang's previous prestige was still there.

If they didn't have this prestige, these people would have made trouble long ago.

"Master Mao, we are willing to believe in you. The most important thing is that those missing people can come back." After a long time, the old man whispered.

Mao Xiaofang understood what he meant, took a breath silently, and promised: "I will do my best to find those villagers who were looted by ghosts."

"How many days?" A man in the crowd suddenly asked.

Mao Xiao's face froze, and said: "Three days, I will give you a result in three days!"

Not long after, after finally persuading these victims away, everyone in Fuxi Hall stood in the courtyard, speechless for a long time.

"Junior Brother, you have taken this matter too seriously."

After a long time, Lei Gang said softly: "Think about it, how could those people be still intact after being taken away by ghosts for such a long time? If what you retrieved were only corpses, those people who lost their loved ones would definitely not let you go. Even, Fuxitang will not be let go!"

"I know it in my heart." Mao Xiaofang nodded, and looked up at Qin Yao: "Qin Daochang, please come with me."

"Okay." Qin Yao responded, followed him silently, and strode out of Fuxi Hall.

Lei Gang watched the two leave with his "eyes of heart", and a few fluctuations flashed in his blind eyes...

Soon, in the yellowed green hills, Mao Xiaofang walked slowly, "Daoist Qin, I suspect that all of this is caused by... Lei Gang."

Qin Yao: "It's obvious, if you don't fall down, how can he stand up in Fuxitang?"

Mao Xiaofang pursed his lips, paused his steps, and bowed deeply towards Qin Yao: "Please save me, Daoist Qin!"

Just like in the original book where he was forced into a dilemma by Lei Gang, although the plot has undergone earth-shaking changes, the result is the same.

Now he seems to have entered a deadlock, unable to break free, and can only place his hopes on outsiders!

Looking down at Mao Xiaofang who was bowing and saluting, Qin Yao couldn't bear it, but then he became ruthless again.

If he only needed Mao Xiaofang to worship the mountain, then he had reached this level earlier.

If he wanted Mao Xiaofang's respect and gratitude, then now is the time.

But the problem is, he wants much more than that.

He wanted Mao Xiaofang to return to his heart, and he wanted the other party to surrender!
The Tiandao Sect is a subordinate institution of Maoshan, but Fuxitang is not.

As long as Mao Xiaofang is still the master of Fuxitang for a day, and he doesn't regard himself as the Tiandao faction, he can't be regarded as returning to his heart, let alone surrendering!
Now it's not too late, if he softens his heart at this time, Fuxitang headed by Mao Xiaofang may be grateful to him for a long time in the future, but he can't let him be driven, let alone give him a heavy responsibility.

Thinking of this, Qin Yao supported Mao Xiaofang's elbows with both hands, and said in a gentle voice: "It's a family, so there's no need to treat others like this.

I'm going to Huangquan right now, borrowing the yin and yang volume from Meng Po to find out those missing villagers.

You don't have to worry too much. If the ghosts want to kill people, they won't take people away. I guess they are probably looking for a body for themselves to walk in the world.

Or, under the instigation of some people, they hid the villagers as hostages. "

"I think so too." Mao Xiaofang said: "Then please, Daoist Qin."

Qin Yao nodded, and said: "But there is one thing, I can come back within three days. Before I come back, I can only rely on you to support myself."

Mao Xiaofang took a deep breath and said, "The big deal is to buy a little more time from the villagers..."

"It's not that simple. It won't be easy in the next few days. You must be careful."

Qin Yao waved his hand and said, "Master Mao, it's not too late. I won't go back to Fuxitang, and go directly to Huangquan."

Mao Xiaofang cupped his hands and said, "Thanks for your hard work, Daoist Qin."

Qin Yao smiled slightly, and his body fled away in an instant...

"Junior brother, why did you come back by yourself, where is Daoist Qin?"

Half an hour later, when Mao Xiaofang stepped into the monastery alone, Lei Gang in the gazebo immediately stood up.

"I asked Daoist Qin to help me with some errands, and he will not be back until two days later." Mao Xiaofang said.

Lei Gang's heart trembled, and he suddenly felt a sense of urgency.

In his opinion, Mao Xiaofang was still the same as ten years ago, and the two apprentices he took in were like waste materials.

In terms of threats, looking at the entire Fuxi Hall, only this mysterious Daoist Qin made him puzzled...

'No, nights are long and dreams are many, Mao Xiaofang must be driven into the dust and expelled from Fuxitang before the other party comes back! Lei Gang murmured secretly in his heart while his thoughts were turning.

Then, the next evening, something happened again. I saw a short man with a thin body and short beard walking like flying, rushing into the Fuxi Hall and shouting: "Master Mao, Master Mao..."

In the lobby, Mao Xiaofang stepped out and asked, "Dachun, what happened again?"

Since Da Lei Gang came back, strange things happened frequently in the past two days, which made him a little exhausted physically and mentally.

"Master Mao, something happened in Mojiazhuang this time!" Dachun said with a look of horror: "It's terrible, it's terrible..."

Mao Xiaofang's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said, "Take me there now, and talk while walking."

After the two left quickly, Lei Gang led Lei Xiu out of the room, and asked lightly, "Are you all ready?"

"It's all ready, Dad." Lei Xiu said.

Lei Gang smiled silently: "Shan, let's go there now."

Shortly after.

Mojiazhuang.

in the lobby.

Song Zilong took Zhou Zhouyuan to investigate the situation. After seeing Mao Xiaofang, he immediately greeted him and said, "Master Mao."

Mao Xiaofang nodded, and just about to speak, he caught a glimpse of six human-shaped stone sculptures in the hall from the corner of his eye: "What are these?"

"The six members of the Mo family were found missing this morning, and suddenly there were six more humanoid sculptures in the main hall. We suspected that some evil cultivators cast spells and turned the six members of the Mo family into stone sculptures, so we let Dachun go Fuxitang invites you to come and have a look." Song Zilong said.

Mao Xiaofang came to the stone sculpture, stretched out his hand to sense the stone sculpture, nodded and said: "They are indeed human beings."

Hearing this, everyone present changed their faces.

After all, guessing is one thing, but actually confirming is another.

"Captain Song, let someone set up the cordon. I'll cast a spell and see if I can help them decompose." Mao Xiaofang said.

Song Zilong nodded, and immediately ordered Zhou Yuan to make arrangements.

Mao Xiaofang let out a breath, rolled up his sleeves, came to a little boy, sat cross-legged on the ground, made a mudra with his hands, and gently pushed the boy on the back.

In a blink of an eye, bursts of green light appeared on the stone carving, and green smoke rose from the top.

The onlookers widened their eyes in surprise.

at the same time.

On a piece of wasteland outside the town.

Lei Gang stood expressionlessly in front of an altar, tied Mao Xiaofang's used chopsticks with a yellow talisman to a scarecrow with Mao Xiaofang written on the back, immediately inserted the chopsticks into the mud in the incense burner, picked up the brush , dipped in the dirty blood, and tapped it between the scarecrow's eyebrows.

Inside Mo's Village.

As Mao Xiaofang continued to exercise, the boy's head gradually returned to normal, and cheers were heard from the crowd of onlookers.

Mao Xiaofang didn't dare to be careless, he tried his best to mobilize the mana in his body, and continued to relieve the petrified state for the child.

Suddenly, something that no one expected happened...

But Mao Xiaofang's body twitched violently, and the palms of his hands shifted uncontrollably, while the green light in the boy's body seemed to be drawn by some kind, and quickly instilled into Mao Xiaofang's body along Mao Xiaofang's arms. .

Mao Xiao's face changed slightly, but at this critical moment, he didn't dare to be distracted, let alone stop, otherwise even he wouldn't be able to imagine what would happen to the child in front of him.

After a long time, the child was lifted from the petrified state, and fell to the ground with a face full of horror.

Mao Xiaofang sat cross-legged on the spot, constantly working hard, and sealed all the curses in the little finger with difficulty. As a result, the whole little finger instantly turned dark green.

"Master Mao, are you okay?"

Song Zilong signaled Zhou Yuan to take the child away, and looked at Mao Xiaofang with concern.

Mao Xiaofang shook his head, got up and came to the second child: "I'm fine, don't worry about me..."

In a blink of an eye, as the child was unsealed, Mao Xiaofang's left ring finger also turned dark green.But he just flexed his little finger and ring finger, didn't say anything, and continued to undo the petrification of the child...

The two children cursed his two fingers, and the curse on the adults was stronger. After rescuing the two old people, his entire left hand turned dark green, so he had to continue to rescue the last middle-aged couple with his right hand. couple.

After nearly an hour, all six people were unsealed, but the corresponding price was—both palms of Mao Xiaofang turned dark green!

"Master Mao, are you alright?" Seeing Mao Xiaofang sweating profusely, Song Zilong leaned over quickly, trying to help him up.

"Don't touch me!" Mao Xiaofang shouted in a low voice.

Song Zilong froze for a moment, his palms froze in place.

"Brother, are you alright?"

At this time, Lei Xiu supported Lei Gang, who was holding a rabbit in his hand, and slowly came to Mo's village.

"Senior Brother." Mao Xiaofang's pupils narrowed slightly, and said, "Why did you come here?"

"I heard about the Mojiazhuang. I thought you were here, so I didn't come here. Instead, I went to track down the man behind the scenes, and finally hunted down this cursed rabbit." Lei Gang raised the rabbit in his hand, Gao Said loudly.

Mao Xiaofang's expression changed.

He has already suffered a loss once, and it would be really stupid if he couldn't see Lei Gang's face and methods clearly.

The important point at this time is: since the rabbit that was the "source of the curse" was killed, and it happened that my hands were infected with this curse again, how should I explain if petrification happens again in the town in the future?

Even... after knowing that these hands of his can petrify others, what will the villagers think of him?

Just as he was thinking about this, Lei Xiu suddenly said, "Master, why are your hands green?"

"Green? Not good!" Lei Gang's face changed drastically, and he said loudly: "Junior brother, it seems that the curse has escaped to you. Hold your breath and focus on your dantian. I will heal your injuries right now!"

Mao Xiaofang is now full of doubts about Lei Gang, how could he agree to let him help him?

If you help me, and your cultivation is abolished, where can you justify yourself?

"No need, senior brother, I'll just go back and adjust slowly." Mao Xiaofang said.

Lei Gang nodded and said: "Then be careful, at this time, anything you touch will be petrified."

Hearing this, the onlookers even took a step back subconsciously.

"I will be careful." Mao Xiaofang nodded.

"Master Mao, you saved the six members of the Mo family. This is undoubtedly a great deed, but don't forget about the disappearance case. It's been a day now. I don't know what progress has been made?" A villager in the crowd suddenly said.

The surroundings were quiet, and all eyes focused on Mao Xiaofang.

"I'm investigating, please wait patiently for a while." Mao Xiaofang responded.

"It's better to have a good result, or you will be a sinner in Gantian Town." The villager muttered.

"What did you say?" The Mo family man said with his eyes wide open.

"I'm telling the truth." The villager said: "Originally, Master Lei said that those ghosts should be wiped out. It was Master Mao who insisted on going his own way and leaving the ghosts behind, which caused such a disaster."

"Fart." The man from the Mo family said, "We should trust Master Mao, the group of ghosts who caught people later must not be the ones caught by Master Lei."

"Master Mao just saved your family. Of course you believe him, but our family has not been rescued yet." The villager said.

The Mo family man was very angry, pointed at the door and said, "Get out!"

Listening to the conversation between the two, watching the villagers silently watching, Mao Xiaofang felt a chill in his heart.

He originally thought that he was the patron saint of Gantian Town, a respected Taoist priest.

But it wasn't until then that he realized that he was thinking too much.

The believers who come here for fame in the glory are often the grass on the wall. Once he falls into the well, let alone helping him, he is already very conscientious if he doesn't fall into the well.

In the past, I still didn't see through it, so that I was tired of the common name instead!
"Junior brother, let's go." Lei Gang said lightly.

Mao Xiaofang pursed his lips and said, "Brother, are you sure this rabbit is the source of the curse?"

"I'm sure."

Lei Gang said: "It should be that the rabbit absorbed the curse in a certain cemetery, and thus became like this."

Mao Xiaofang had nothing to say, got up and walked out.

Looking at his hands with green light, the crowd seemed to avoid snakes and scorpions, and they gave way to a road in the blink of an eye.

the next day.

It was dusk.

In Fuxi Hall, Xiao Hai walked into the hall softly, looked at the thin figure sitting cross-legged on the futon, and said hesitantly: "Master, since the morning, the wind reviews have been a little bit wrong."

"What's wrong?" Mao Xiaofang slowly opened his eyes.

"Everyone says, everybody says..."

"Don't stutter, say anything!" Mao Xiaofang shouted in a low voice.

"It is said that you are not as high-cultivated as your uncle, and that you are self-willed and self-willed, and the innocent villagers who have been harmed have suffered as a result. It would be good if you can finally find those missing villagers, and you will make up for it. If you can't find it in the end..."

"So what?" Mao Xiaofang said.

Xiao Hai: "That's why you killed the missing villagers..."

Mao Xiaofang was silent for a long time, then said quietly: "Do you all think so?"

"Many people think that the evil wind blows from nowhere." Xiao Hai said.

Mao Xiaofang was silent for a moment, and said disheartenedly: "The past kindness is wiped out, and it can be poured wherever the wind blows. It's great, it's great."

Little sea:"……"

He doesn't understand what's so good about it.

A blink of an eye.

The fourth day of the disappearance.

early morning.

Hundreds of villagers squeezed into the Fuxi hall, and the leading old man looked at Mao Xiaofang who had walked out of the hall, and said in a deep voice, "Master Mao, what explanation did you promise to give us?"
