Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 348 It's Coming
Yang Qian saw that the kid was talking in a mysterious way, but he didn't pay much attention to it. After all, his divine sense had already covered the ruins, and he didn't find any "secret place".

"What do you want to do with the silver?"

"Get some medicine for my mother. She'll die if she continues like this. Without my mother, I'll be sent to another city."

Yang Qian raised his eyebrows.

"Okay, lead the way. Let's see where the secret place you mentioned is. If you dare to lie to me, I will beat your ass!"

As Yang Qian spoke, he took out two pieces of loose silver, estimated to be a little over five taels, and threw them over.

Faced with Yang Qian's ferocious threats, the kid was also afraid, but he did not back down, as if the "hidden place" he mentioned gave him enough confidence. After taking the silver, a blush of excitement appeared on his thin face.

We shuttled back and forth among the ruins, and finally stopped at a dried-up pond, which was still filled with some broken porcelain basins and covered with a thick layer of mud, now covered with waist-high weeds.

"Inside?"

"Yes, uncle. Just follow me. I won't lie to you!" The kid put the remaining half of the pancake into his arms and led Yang Qian to jump into the dried-up pond.

After walking a few steps, the child figured out the direction and finally stopped in a corner of the pond. He pulled aside the deep weeds, revealing traces of the soil on one side that seemed to have been turned over by someone, and a flat stone door could be seen under the soil.

The kid was obviously a little panicked when he saw the stone door exposed outside, and said, "Uncle, it's right here. I, I clearly covered it up after I saw it."

Yang Qian did not speak, but frowned slightly as he looked at the half-closed stone door. This was because his divine sense had just entered the stone door, and before that, he had not noticed anything unusual here. His divine sense had been deceived.

Looking at the magic pattern on the stone gate, Yang Qian thought that maybe he had found the right place.

Going down the steps after the stone door opened, there was a two-meter-square underground secret room, but because it had long lost its airtightness, it was damp and musty. Apart from some empty stone boxes, there was nothing else.

"Uncle, this place looked like this the last time I came here. Do you think this is the place you are looking for?"

Yang Qian did not answer, but concentrated on using his spiritual power to scan the secret room without missing a single detail.

The kid might not know, but Yang Qian knew very well that someone had entered the secret room recently. And he had stayed inside for quite some time. The faint footprints on the ground could explain the problem.

There were many footprints, as if someone was searching for something in a secret room.

It was clear at a glance what was there to search for in the empty secret room? But after the previous experience of being deceived by his mind outside the secret room, Yang Qian did not dare to be careless.

After careful and repeated identification with his divine sense, Yang Qian finally found something strange in the northeast corner of the secret room.

Yang Qian felt an extremely weak fluctuation of magical power on one of the wall bricks, which was only two inches wide and close to the ground.

Yang Qian squatted down and looked for a while before finally laughing.

He saw the same method he had seen in Baiguling before, where the magic array patterns were engraved inside the material with a special technique instead of showing it outside. However, although the technique was the same as the ancient array technique he had seen in Baiguling, the array arrangement was different, and it was a method that Yang Qian knew.

In a short while, Yang Qian broke the formation hidden in the wall brick, and then forced it open along its veins.

Instantly, this corner of the secret room began to shake slightly, and the northeast corner began to collapse, and soon a staircase appeared. After the staircase appeared, the obvious fluctuations of the magic circle inside came to the fore, which was why Yang Qian's divine sense could not directly discover this underground building. The children beside him were all scared and stared at Yang Qian going down the stairs. They were stunned for a while before they couldn't help but be curious and followed him down the stairs.

In the originally pitch-black underground, a ball of soft light hung above Yang Qian's head, illuminating the entire secret room.

There were only eleven or twelve steps, and after going down there was another stone chamber, but it was much larger than the one above. It was filled with stone boxes, but they were all opened and the boxes were empty.

The child looked around curiously, and finally saw Yang Qian standing in front of a wall of the stone chamber in a daze.

After walking around, the child could see clearly that there was a relief of a monster on the wall. It was in human form, with three eyes and a single horn on its head.
"Uncle, what is this painting about? It looks scary!" The kid didn't understand, but he felt a chill all over his body just by looking at the relief. He didn't even dare to look into the eyes of the relief, as it made him feel as if he was being stared at by a monster.

"It's just a monster." Yang Qian raised his hand and touched the child's head. A gentle spiritual energy flowed into the child's body to soothe his soul, and the trembling child immediately returned to normal.

The relief of the evil god is so evil that even though Yang Qian has reached the out-of-body state, he still can't explain the reason. Even he can always feel the vague sense of oppression from the relief.

The statue had obviously been infused with magical power recently.

Moreover, Yang Qian saw some black stains in front of the evil god statue. Based on his experience, he could be sure that those stains were left after the blood dried up.

The contents of the stone box had also been taken out recently. Since the box was open, there was much less dust inside than on the ground.

He opened the magic circle, took away the things, and also paid tribute to the statue of the evil god.

Although these findings did not have clear directions for the follow-up, they already satisfied Yang Qian. This was because it was certain that someone from the Huashen Sect had been here. Plus the coincidence in time, it could only be Zhou Zhong and his gang who had inherited the Huashen Sect and caused a catastrophic disaster in Jizhou Prefecture.

Yang Qian restored the things in the secret room to their original state, restored the magic circle at the entrance to its original appearance, and cleaned up all the footprints left by him and the little kid.

Back outside again.

"When was the last time you were here?"

"Before my mother fell ill, it should have been two months, probably in the middle of the previous month." The child thought for a moment and replied.

Yang Qian calculated the time in his mind and found that it matched, with not much difference.

"Do you want to make some more money?"

"Uncle, you tell me! I want to make money!"

"Please ask quietly if anyone saw a stranger running into this abandoned garden two months ago.

If no one knows, you can only get one or two taels of silver."

As he spoke, Yang Qian took out another piece of loose silver and placed it in the child's hand. Then he took out another talisman and handed it over, continuing: "If you ask something, such as the man's appearance, whereabouts, etc., you can crush this small talisman, and then I will come to find you, and then you will get ten taels of silver, or even more, it all depends on what information you ask.

Don't try to lie to me, it's not good for you."
