Chapter 117
117 Go fishing in peace town
Old master Cheng looked at him deeply and thought for a while before saying,”I can just tell you.”
recently, there have been a few cases of missing children in various counties in the hang Zhou Prefecture. The number is not high, at most three to five people in each county and less than one person in each village. Therefore, it has not attracted much attention.
“If this kind of case can’t be solved, it will be reported to the government. When I was arranging these documents, I felt a little strange.”
“It’s not unusual for a County to lose two or three children in a month. However, there were dozens of children who went missing at the same time. This is rare in the Hangzhou Prefecture.”
and the description of the crime is very similar. They were all children playing outside the village, and they disappeared in the blink of an eye. The criminal did not leave any traces.
“I immediately decided to combine these cases and deal with them as major cases. At the same time, inform the constables of the magistrate’s office to investigate. After a few days of investigation, they found that the movement of some horses and carriages in this place of peace town was very suspicious. It could be the place where they hid the children.”
“But it will be hard to make any more progress if we continue to investigate. I was just about to submit the scroll and ask for the assistance of Chaotian que. At this moment, this letter arrived.”
“It must be a warning from that group of villains, Yingluo.”
Bang!
Monk God Eye slammed his fist on the table and said angrily, ” “How arrogant!”
Old master Cheng glanced at the yellow rosewood table with heartache and felt his head hurt even more.
Li Chu was a little angry after hearing that.
The trafficking of children was an extremely hateful crime no matter what era it was. These villains even dared to use witchcraft to murder Imperial officials.
It was too much.
“If cultivators kidnapped these children, then they probably didn’t abduct them for human trafficking,” Zhao liangchen said after a moment of silence.
“Oh?” “What’s that?” old master Cheng asked.
“It’s not strange for evil people to do things that anger the heavens and the people.” “Of course, it’s most likely that they’ll abduct some of the more intelligent children and raise them as disciples to expand their influence,” Zhao liangchen said.
The world was filled with evil, demons, ghosts, and monsters.
Only “Devils” were demonized by other living beings, and 90% of demonized living beings were humans.
Ironically, most of the ‘Devils’ were cultivated by humans.
That was because there was a demonic sect in the pugilistic world. At its peak, it was on par with the Taoist and Buddhist sects. It was only later that the Imperial court and the Orthodox sects joined forces to suppress it, and it gradually disappeared.
However, there were many inheritances in The Fiend sects, and they were strange and abnormal. It was difficult to completely eradicate them, and some of them still had relatively large forces.
These fiend sect cultivators cultivated techniques that went against the righteous path and took risks out of desperation.
For example, there were living sacrifices, killing to break through the realm, and many other evil methods. Even if he didn’t need all of this, there were most likely other strange and unspeakable things.
The benefit of Demonic Cultivation was the speed of advancement. In the early stages of cultivation, the speed of demonic cultivators far exceeded that of righteous cultivators. In addition, in the same realm, the strength of the demonic sect cultivators often crushed the righteous path cultivators.
But correspondingly, they had to constantly take the risk of being possessed by the devil, which was no different from walking on a tightrope.
In each of the Seven Realms of heaven and man, more than half of The Fiend cultivators would either die or go crazy. Every possessed person would completely lose their humanity and become a bloodthirsty and evil “devil.” In addition to the power of Demonic Cultivation techniques, this kind of demon was very difficult to deal with.
Therefore, every living demonic sect cultivator could be seen as a time bomb.
The higher the realm of the devil cultivator, the greater the risk of the explosion.
All these years, under the suppression of the Heluo dynasty, it was very difficult for the demonic sects to accept disciples. The Imperial court also wanted to use this method to cut off the new blood and cause them to gradually wither.
Right now, it was very likely that some of the inheritances in The Fiend sects could not withstand the pressure and had started to abduct children.
“AI …”
Hearing this, old master Cheng sighed. these evil thieves might have spies in the government office. When I’ve recovered, even if I don’t care about my health, I’ll immediately present the file. After the government has approved it, I’m afraid it will take several days to send it to Chaotian Palace. They’ve been inside and out for so many days, I’m afraid they’ve already succeeded and moved away.”
“Preposterous!” Monk God Eye suddenly stood up. how can there be such a good thing? ” There’s no need to find that troublesome Chaotian que. I’ll head to Pingan town right now and investigate which group of evil thieves from the demon sect are involved! Are you two going?”
Zhao liangchen frowned.
He also understood what old master Cheng said, but he was a little embarrassed.
It was precisely because the demonic sect was behind this that they had to first find out which force it was, right?
Although most of the demonic sects were small inheritances, there were also large forces. There were even yanyue sect, which was comparable to the 12 immortal sects, and the lone Peak.
Fiend sect cultivators had treacherous methods and were difficult to defeat at the same realm. If these people were from big forces with many experts, they had fought their way out of the law of the jungle. Rashly looking for him would be no different from sending a sheep into a Tiger’s mouth.
The battle with the demonic cultivators was different from the other evil spirits. After all, monsters, ghosts, and spirits were not humans, and their thoughts were very different from humans. However, a demonic cultivator who was also a human Tao Wu was the most difficult to deal with.
Were there any creatures more sinister and cunning than humans in this world? There was probably no more.
Just as he was thinking about this, Li Chu stood up and said naturally, ” “We must save those children.”
Li Chu’s declaration made Zhao liangchen’s head thump as if blood was rushing into it.
He stood up in a rush and said word by word, ” “We cultivators naturally can not retreat! Where the Dao is, I will go even if there are millions of people!”
After he finished speaking, several people in the room looked at him approvingly.
He couldn’t help but feel excited for three seconds.
This act won.
However, three seconds later, God Eye monk patted his shoulder heavily. well said. Let’s go!
“Eh?!”
Zhao liangchen was stunned when he saw the monk and Daoist turn around and leave. He sighed.
Sigh, you damned vanity.
Helplessly, he could only quickly follow. At the same time, he prayed in his heart that it would be an ordinary small power and not the yanyue sect.
……
Li Chu told Wang longqi and the little koi fish to go back first. He didn’t want to bring them to peace town.
Wang longqi was just a mortal, and the little koi fish, Jian Jia, had almost no fighting power that could be shown on the surface. The role of a mascot had yet to be verified.
Pingan town and Yuhang Town were about the same distance from Hangzhou’s Prefecture city, but in opposite directions.
And like Yuhang Town, Pingan town was also a County with the same name as the local county. Therefore, the place they went to could be called peace town or Xuanji.
Ping ‘an County.
They arrived at peace town by boat. When they got ashore, the sky was getting dark.
Monk God Eye touched his shiny skull. how are we going to find them? ”
Zhao liangchen narrowed his eyes and said, ” “You don’t even know how to find her and you’re already so aggressive?”
“You know about it?” the divine eye looked at him.
Zhao liangchen shrugged. of course not.
Old master Cheng didn’t give them much information. He only knew that the Hangzhou Prefecture had recently lost a child and suspected that he was hiding in Pingan town. He couldn’t even confirm it.
If they could find out the exact location, they would have reported it to the government office long ago.
In such a large town, coupled with the surrounding villages, if they were to search them one by one, who knew how long it would take.
Li Chu sighed.
It looked awkward.
The two teammates he had picked up this time didn’t seem to be very smart.
“In the situation where we can’t find the other party, it seems like Yingying can only let the other party come to us,” he said.
“Let them come to us?” Monk God Eye touched his head and said in realization, ” “Yup!”
Zhao liangchen nodded thoughtfully. that’s a good idea.
Monk God Eye shot him a glance. you’ve thought of it too? ”
Zhao liangchen blinked,”there’s no Yingluo, but I think you all seem to have thought of something. Yingluo, if I don’t nod, I’ll look weak, Yingluo.”
it’s nothing much, ” monk divine eye said. it’s just fishing!
“Fishing?” Zhao liangchen was stunned,”you’re talking about Yingluo?”
Li Chu nodded and said,”I remember you have a few little ghosts.” He could let them pretend to be lost children and test the waters around peace town. If those thieves really hid the children nearby, then they should have more eyes. We’ll be watching from behind. Once they make a move,”
“But if that’s the case, our divine senses must cover a greater distance than theirs. Otherwise, they’ll find us before we can find them. “I’ve just entered the divine union Stage not long ago,” Zhao liangchen said.”My divine sense can only cover a few dozen Zhang.”
although I don’t have a consciousness, my pair of wisdom eyes can see far and wide, ” “It can reach several hundred Zhang.”
I only have One Mind’s Eye technique, and it can cover an area of about half a mile, ” Li Chu said.”A radius of thirty li.”
“Then, Yingluo, huh? Wait a minute, Yingluo.”
Zhao liangchen was about to say something, but he suddenly felt that something was wrong. God Eye also turned to look at Li Chu.
There seems to be something strange between us?
Why did it feel like Yingying was talking about the same thing in a cross-server chat?
“Are you sure you’re talking about thirty miles?” Zhao liangchen asked in surprise.
If one’s divine sense could cover thirty miles, one would need to be at least at the peak of the all creations realm, or even the behemoth realm.
Moreover, things like spiritual awareness were not like realms that could be broken through by enlightenment. It basically relied on the accumulation of time and meditation to grow.
Even a genius would need at least 30 to 50 years to grow to this level, right?
“My heart’s eye technique is different from a xiuzhe’s consciousness. Perhaps there is a small difference,” Li Chu said indifferently.
Hehe, a small difference?
Zhao liangchen didn’t want to think about this anymore.
If he continued to think about it, his life would be ruined again.
Without saying anything more, he took out a small black bottle from his sleeve, removed the cork sealed by the talisman, and poured it down.
Then, a thick white mist flowed out.
In the White mist, the figures of a few children appeared. They seemed to be illusionary yet not illusionary, all of them hugging their knees and curled up.
Gradually, as the White mist dispersed, the figures became clearer.
There were four boys and a girl. The boys each had a ponytail, while the girl had a pair of pigtails. They were all wearing thick black and red cotton-padded jackets, as if they were made of paper.
Li Chu smiled when he saw these figures. The last time he met these little ghosts, he thought they were quite interesting.
The moment the White mist dissipated, the little children raised their heads one after another. They were in high spirits and shouted in unison.
“Have you eaten?”
