Uncle Jiu: I am the one-armed swordsman, I will destroy the devil in a year

Chapter 44 Whereabouts!

Wencai pointed to some traces of fighting beside the pool. There were many scratches on the bluestone slabs, and there were many hairs under the bluestone, which seemed to be left by Chu Xiaomei.

"Brother Qin, it seems like there was a fight here."

Qin An walked up and, as expected, there were signs of fighting around the pool.

Wencai and Qiu Sheng even found a circle of white ash-like substance in the weeds nearby, with some talisman papers scattered around.

Qin An also saw these things and immediately picked up some talismans on the ground. Of course, Qin An could not recognize these talismans, after all, he was not a Taoist.

"Wencai, Qiusheng, look at what this talisman is."

Qiu Sheng and Wencai picked up the talisman, looked at it carefully, and both frowned.

"Brother Qin, this spell is not simple. Generally, people from the orthodox Taoist sects would not use this kind of spell. It seems that Chu Xiaomei has been taken away by someone."

Qin An frowned. He had finally managed to negotiate with Chu Xiaomei to avenge her and dispel her resentment.

In the end, someone got there first! ! ! !
You know, after dealing with Chu Xiaomei, he will be able to gain a wave of experience points, and then he will have a chance to get a bronze skin.

At this moment, Qin An remembered that Chu Xiaomei had said that Tian Ji had found a Taoist priest to perform a secret ritual. Chu Xiaomei was so resentful, it must be the work of this Taoist priest.

Qin An asked around in the village but couldn't get any information about this Taoist.

I went to other neighboring villages to ask, but still couldn't find it.

Helplessly, Qin An could only take Wencai Qiu Sheng to Liusha Town to look for clues.

However, before leaving, he went to Village Chief Tian's house to loot some money. He didn't know where the old man hid the money. There was only the five hundred yuan reward. Qin An was too lazy to search. It was more important to find Chu Xiaomei first, after all, it was related to his promotion to Bronze Skin.

At noon, Qin An, Wencai, Qiu Sheng and others found a restaurant in Liusha Town and ordered some food.

In the restaurant.

Two young Taoist priests appeared instead. The young Taoist priest ordered some dishes and drank some wine.

The two young Taoists talked while drinking.

"Master went to Datian Village overnight last night and captured the evil spirit from Datian Village."

"Master is really capable."

Datian Village, evil spirits!!
Wencai and Qiu Sheng showed ecstatic expressions. Chu Xiaomei was indeed captured. Wencai and Qiu Sheng said excitedly.

"Brother Qin, did you hear that?"

Qin An's gaze also condensed, with a hint of ferocity in his eyes.

Damn it, he spent so much effort to calm Chu Xiaomei's resentment and avenge her, and only then was Chu Xiaomei willing to let Qin An deal with her.

As a result, he was taken away by this group of people first.

However, Qin An did not act impulsively and asked Wencai and Qiu Sheng to remain on hold.

"Don't be impulsive, listen to what they have to say."

The two Taoists drank one cup after another, and one of them showed a smug expression.

"I'll tell you a secret. The evil spirit in Datian Village was actually created by Master. Master was the one behind it all."

"What, are you serious?"

"Of course, after Ota Murakami killed her, he asked the master to perform a ritual. The master suddenly discovered that this woman was born on the Ghost Festival on July 15th, and she died tragically, so the master secretly performed a ritual on her to increase her resentment."

When the other Taoist heard this, his eyes widened, "Brother, what you mean is that the reason so many people died in Datian Village was actually because of Master."

"That's right. Master increased the resentment of the female ghost and made her keep killing people. Her resentment will grow bigger and bigger."

The younger Taoist frowned and asked, "Master, what is your purpose in doing this?"

"Hush, I'll tell you quietly. I heard that the master is going to practice some kind of beads. Once this female ghost has killed many people, she will have great resentment, and a kind of resentment bead will condense in her body. I heard that this magic bead is very powerful and can win over hundreds of ghosts and make them work for the master. Have you heard of the Five Ghosts Moving Technique? The master is practicing the Hundred Ghosts Moving Technique."

"Hiss, Master is really amazing, but this method is a bit cruel."

"Okay, don't tell anyone, otherwise we will all die. In this day and age, no matter what means he uses, Master must use more powerful means so that we can have food to eat. Who in this town dares not to give us face?" "That's true."

The two young Taoists lowered their heads and spoke.

however.

They never expected that their conversation could be heard clearly by the people at the table behind them.

Qin An's eyes also narrowed. This was similar to what he had guessed. Chu Xiaomei was taken away by someone with evil intentions.

Fortunately, I came to this restaurant in Liusha Town to eat and accidentally heard about Chu Xiaomei's whereabouts. Otherwise, this trip to Datian Village would have been in vain.

"Brother Qin, what should we do next?"

"Let's catch these two guys and interrogate them later." Qin An lowered his voice.

"Row."

Now that we know Chu Xiaomei's whereabouts, Qin An will find out about it first.

……

There is a Taoist temple in a deep mountain thirty miles away from the town.

There are many magical instruments placed inside the Taoist temple.

In a dark house in the backyard of the Taoist temple.

A Taoist priest in gray squinted his eyes and smiled.

In front of him stood a woman with disheveled hair. It was Chu Xiaomei. Chu Xiaomei’s body was covered with dense runes and she looked very painful.

"What do you want to do? Who are you?" Chu Xiaomei was panicked.

“Hahahaha, who am I? The fact that you can possess such resentful power and become a powerful evil spirit is all thanks to me. Hurry and condense the resentful beads for me!”

The Taoist held a cup filled with dark liquid and emitting black smoke, and then poured the liquid into Chu Xiaomei's mouth.

Chu Xiaomei was trembling all over and in unbearable pain.

The Taoist in gray robe sneered, then he sat cross-legged and began to cast a spell.

All the resentment in Chu Xiaomei's body condensed into a ball.

The Taoist in grey robe was overjoyed: "Master Dao, I will succeed!"

After a moment, the Taoist in gray robe walked out.

There were about ten people standing outside the door, all disciples of the Taoist in gray robe.

He said sternly: "Watch out for me, don't let the female ghost inside escape, or I will hold you accountable."

"Master, don't worry."

On the other side, in a restaurant in the town, two young Taoists ate and drank their fill, then got up and left. The waiter grabbed their Taoist robes.

"You two young masters, you haven't paid yet."

The two young Taoist priests shouted, "Pay? We never pay for our meals. You are so blind. You don't even know who we are. Get your shopkeeper out of here."

After the shopkeeper came out, he immediately apologized to the two young Taoists.

"Masters, this waiter is new here. He doesn't know your identities. Please leave slowly and come back next time."

The two young Taoist priests snorted coldly, "That's more like it."

After the two of them walked out, three more followed them out...

These three people are Qin An, Wencai and Qiu Sheng.
