Chapter 154

Cultivators can only feel the remaining breath of the spirit beast, but they cannot know exactly what kind of spirit beast it is.

Mo Yinxing looked at the jade pendant held by Pei Zhuo'an, and asked him puzzled, "Where did you find this thing?"

"Here, after I came in, I sensed the situation here, and found that the box containing this jade pendant has the breath of a spirit beast. Let Husky smell it and see if it belongs to a former beast."

Spirit beasts can be distinguished from each other by their breath, but the premise is that Husky must be a spirit beast.

As a monster, of course he couldn't smell it out.

So Mo Yinxing could only lie for him as a cover and said, "The husky's nose was injured before, so he may not be able to smell it well, and it's the same when he brings things back for the treasure hunting mouse to sniff."

Pei Zhuo'an had never raised a spirit beast, so he didn't know whether what A Mo said was true or not, so he could only put away the things first, and then continued to search in the county magistrate's study.

But until it was completely dark outside and they stopped in the magistrate's couch, they still found nothing.

The only thing that can be regarded as some gains is that this county magistrate who looks to be in his 40s is a bit too neurotic.

Even though the room was brightly lit, several lamps were placed in front of him, and he was still holding a Buddha string tightly in his hand. While collecting beads, he kept saying "Don't come to me, don't come to me".

No matter how you look at it, it seems that you have done something wrong and are afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.

At this time, Ning Xiang also sent a communication jade slip, saying that he saw a dead person floating on the water of Mingjing Lake.

The deceased looked to be over sixty years old, without any obvious scars on his body. Although he had become a corpse, the expression on his face was frighteningly distorted and frightened.

"How's the progress on your side? If it's almost there, come back and have a look. Bai Yun and I are here, and we didn't notice any movement at all, and saw the corpse floating up."

Pei Zhuo'an and Mo Yinxing did not make much progress here. After taking a deep look at the county magistrate who was behaving suspiciously, they turned back to Mingjing Mountain.

"Look, we didn't dare to move the corpse, we just used spiritual power to bring him ashore."

Ning Xiang stared at the soaked, whitish and swollen corpse, and then glanced at the location of Mingjing Lake. She couldn't understand how this thing appeared out of thin air.

With her and Bai Yun's cultivation base, unless the opponent's strength is higher than them, it would be very difficult to do this.

Pei Zhuo'an withdrew his gaze from the corpse, and made a conclusion: "It looks like it should be the handwriting of the former dust beast. It is not like a normal dead person, there will be no wounds on the body, and this corpse does not seem to be sick. .”

"However, Senior Sister, why didn't even you and Senior Brother Bai Yun notice that someone came to throw the corpse? Could it be that the cultivation level of that person is higher than yours?"

"Tsk, it's impossible to think about it." Mo Yinxing glanced at Pei Zhuo'an, looking at him like he was looking at some idiot, "If that person is really a cultivator whose cultivation base is stronger than Xiangxiang and the others, It is completely possible to destroy the corpses and wipe out the traces, why do you have to spend so much effort to throw many corpses in Mingjing Lake?"

Bai Yun agreed: "That's true, and the location is fixed here. I think it must be that something big happened here. If we go down the mountain to find out the news from the people nearby, we may be able to figure out why."

Now it's the end of Xushi, and it will be Haishi soon. Today's corpse throwing is over, and there is a high probability that the thrower will not come again.

Ning Xiang thought for a while, and suggested that otherwise, she should go to the mountain to find an inn to settle down, and then go to the town to inquire about the situation after dawn.

"That's the only way to go. By the way, let the treasure hunting mouse sniff this jade pendant." Before Pei Zhuo'an finished speaking, he was frightened by a howling like a wild beast, and the jade pendant he picked up fell to the lawn.

He wanted to reach out to pick up the jade pendant, but was preempted by a spirit beast about the size of a treasure hunting mouse, and took it away with its mouth.

Everything happened too fast, and by the time Ning Xiang and his group reacted, the spirit beast had already fled into the deep forest without a trace.

Only Treasure Hunter noticed the anomaly immediately and followed closely.

Ning Xiang realized later that the treasure hunting mouse was gone, so she asked Husky to help her smell it and confirm the direction in which the treasure hunting mouse left.

But they didn't catch up for long, and found the panting treasure hunter at the edge of a bush.

Ning Xiang panted and asked, "How is it? Have you seen what kind of spirit beast it is? Is it a former beast?"

The Qianchen beast looks similar to the pangolin, the only difference is that it does not have scales on its back, but a piece of soft black fur.

Treasure Hunting Mouse nodded: "Yes, it's Qianchen Beast. I almost caught Shushu just now, but it also used hypnotism to hypnotize me for a few seconds, otherwise I would definitely catch it!!"

Ning Xiang followed the sight of the treasure hunting mouse to look at the place where Qianchen Beast left just now, pursed her lips and said, "Anyway, it has been confirmed that the jade pendant is related to Qianchen Beast, Junior Brother."

The girl turned her head to look at Pei Zhuo'an behind her, and asked him if he still remembered what was special about that jade pendant.

The whole body of the jade pendant is bright green, without any lace engraved on it, only a small "pure" character is engraved in the center of the jade pendant, so Pei Zhuo'an can still remember it clearly.

After telling Ning Xiang about this, the group went down to Mingjing Mountain and found an inn at the foot of the mountain to stay.

Early the next morning, when Ning Xiang was having breakfast at the inn, she pretended to inadvertently ask the diners at the next table about the trip to Mingjing Mountain, to see if she could get any useful information.

When the diner heard that Ning Xiang wanted to go to Mingjing Lake to see the scenery, his eyes widened: "No, little lady, are you a local? Don't you know that people have died frequently at Mingjing Lake recently, which is scary! !"

Mo Yinxing interjected: "Is it true? My senior sister and I came to Qiwu Town for the first time. I heard that the scenery of Mingjing Mountain here is good, and there is a lake, so I thought of going to enjoy the scenery. People die frequently. What's going on?"

Hearing this, the diner took a look around, picked up the noodle that he had only eaten a few mouthfuls of, and moved it to the side where the four of Ning Xiang were sitting, and said in a low voice very gossipy:
"I heard that there are spirit beasts that have become demons, and they are going to settle accounts with those who caused them to become demons! I don't know why, but the dead people are all kinds of people, and there is no rule in age, which makes people panic."

"Obsessed?" Ning Xiang and the treasure-hunting mouse on her shoulders looked at each other, and asked about it with the bond of master and servant. Did you feel any demonic energy attached to the former beast yesterday?

Treasure Hunting Mouse shook his head, and asked Ning Xiang to ask again, does he know where the spirit beast he mentioned often haunts?
 This little story may be a bit heavy, and I don’t know if Dakar will feel uncomfortable when it is released.
