Three days later, Elder Ma and I returned to Tianmen Mountain.
After a short rest on Tianmen Mountain, I set off again with Elder Ma.
Next stop, Sanchu City.
Sanzhu City is located in the south. It is a very important city in China with a very developed economy and culture.
After piecing together the four pieces of the divine map, I sensed it again, and this time it was more accurate. I could be sure that the fragments of the demon clan's divine map were in Sanzhu City.
But Sanzhu City is so big that it is not easy to find the fragments of the demon clan’s sacred map.
It was almost evening when we arrived in Sanzhu City.
Elder Ma and I found a hotel near the train station to stay temporarily.
Coming here without knowing anyone, it's not easy to find the fragments of the demon clan's magic map directly. But there is still a way. Ask people, people don't know, but you can look for ghosts.
For such a big city, there must be a lot of ghosts. It’s just that the city is densely populated and has strong yang energy, so ordinary ghosts rarely appear.
I sent the evil spirit Xiao Hei out to look for ghosts and get some information.
Elder Ma and I stayed in a double room in the hotel.
After a long journey and sitting on the train for nearly a day, we were both exhausted.
Elder Ma fell asleep, and I sat cross-legged on the bed, starting to meditate and regulate my breathing.
Yin and Yang poles appeared in front of him, forming a pattern that continued to flow.
The "spirit" in the air quickly poured into the Yin-Yang pattern, the cathode entered the "spirit", and the anode poured out the "spiritual energy". The spiritual energy was continuously injected into the golden elixir, and the golden elixir rotated, and the spiritual energy was slowly transported to the meridians, bones, and flesh of the body.
After regulating my breathing for about an incense stick of time, the fatigue in my body disappeared.
But after all, I was used to sleeping, so after regulating my breathing, I fell on the bed and fell asleep.
At around one o'clock in the middle of the night, the window opened with a "whoosh" and a cool breeze blew in.
The curtains are purple with tulle on them.
When the wind blew, the curtains bulged out, as if there was a person standing behind them.
I opened my eyes and saw the evil spirit Xiao Hei floating near the window.
"Master, are you awake?"
The ghost Xiao Hei said happily.
I curled my lips and said, "How can I not wake up when you make such a big noise?"
Xiao Hei smiled awkwardly, and then hurriedly said, "Master, don't be angry, I just came back in a hurry to report. However, I did find out some information this time."
"News? Is it about the demon tribe?" I asked.
Yin Ling Xiao Hei nodded and said seriously, "Yes, it's about the demon race. Master, I asked a soul-catching ghost some questions. Recently, there have been many murders in Sanzhu City. Some people have been sucked to death, and the police have not found any clues."
"And all the dead were men. According to the ghost, the dead had some demonic aura on them. So, I think it is very likely that the deaths of those people were related to the demon tribe."
When I heard this, my eyebrows stood up.
I didn't expect that the demon tribe members hiding in Sanzhu City were not honest, but instead engaged in activities that harmed people and sucked blood. It's really abominable.
After all, I am a Taoist priest who catches ghosts, so I have to take care of this kind of thing. Besides, I have to find the fragments of the demon clan's divine map, so considering these two aspects, I have to take action.
"Anything else? Tell me all the information you have found out." I said with a serious face.
"Yes, Master."
It turned out that after leaving the hotel, the ghost Xiao Hei encountered a ghost in the sewer. The ghost was hiding in the sewer next to a bar called "Golden Dragon Frenzy".
hook
Hun Gui said that he had seen a woman with a strong demonic aura enter the bar these days. And that woman would appear almost every once in a while.
But every time that woman appeared, a male corpse would appear in Sanzhu City the next day, and they would all have their blood sucked dry and died tragically.
Therefore, the ghost suspected that the woman was a monster.
I have known for a long time that monsters can transform into human form, so it is not surprising. However, it is rare to see monsters coming into such a densely populated city to harm people.
Most monsters harm people secretly in the wilderness or in deserted places.
As Sanzhu is such a big city, there are naturally many Taoist priests who catch ghosts.
Even the ghost-catching Taoist priest is not afraid of it, which shows how powerful the monster is.
After thinking for a while, I told Yin Ling Xiao **: "Let's go to the 'Golden Dragon Frenzy' bar and wait for the opportunity. Maybe, if we are lucky, we can catch the evil monster tonight."
"Yes, Master."
When he heard that they were going to catch monsters, the ghost Xiao Hei seemed very excited.
The Golden Dragon Frenzy Bar is located on Dongfa Road, Xinbei Street. There are many shops on both sides of the street, including many barbecue stalls and food stalls, as well as bars and KTVs.
There are many luxury cars parked in front of the Golden Dragon Frenzy Bar. It seems that the bar is a place where young people from wealthy families hang out.
On a street corner around the corner from the bar, there is a horse gourd lid.
The ghost Xiao Hei lowered his voice and said to me, "Master, I just found the ghost under the lid of this gourd. However, he wanted to harm people, but I stopped him. After I asked him some questions, I let him go."
I nodded and said nothing.
I sensed it and found that there was indeed some residual ghost energy under the lid of the horse gourd, but not much, which meant that the soul-catching ghost had left.
If I met that haunted ghost, I would certainly not let him go.
Soul-catching ghosts, this kind of ghosts either died unjustly or suffered injustice, and often like to harm people.
Maybe my action of squatting on the lid of the horse gourd was a little special, which attracted a lot of people's attention.
A young man who looked arrogant and flashy walked out of the Golden Dragon Frenzy Bar.
He walked unsteadily, like a duck. When you got closer, you could smell the strong smell of alcohol coming from him, as well as the disgusting smell of alcohol coming out of his mouth.
When he walked past me, he stared at me with a dazed look in his eyes and said unhappily, "What are you looking at, kid? If you keep looking at me, I will dig out your eyes."
I didn't say anything and slowly stood up from the ground.
I frowned, not because of the young man's attitude, but because I noticed that there was a look of death between his brows, and there was not much life in his eyes.
This means that this young man will die soon, and it is very likely tonight.
But this kind of thing is inevitable.
People's lifespans are fixed and recorded in the underworld's book of life and death. There is no way to change it.
Even if I wanted to help, I couldn't.
Besides, I don't have much time left on my body, and I'm covered in shit, so how can I help others? Not only can I not help, but even if I do, I won't be treated well in the underworld.
What's more, this young man has a really bad attitude, and just looking at him makes people feel disgusted.
Seeing that I was still staring at him, the young man glared at me in dissatisfaction, raised his chin, and said arrogantly: "You are still looking at me, believe it or not, I will cut you. Bastard, don't think I don't know what you are doing here. Look at the shabby clothes you are wearing, you must be a beggar."
"Hahaha... It's a beggar, definitely a beggar!"
I don't know why he is so proud and why he feels so superior.
He was very contemptuous of me.
I snorted coldly and ignored him.
But I didn't expect that he would actually pick a fight and block my way.
"Hey, what's wrong? Beggar, after listening to what I said, are you dissatisfied? Here, it's a reward from me."
The young man muttered, reached out his hand, pulled out a wad of money from his pocket, and threw it hard on the lid of the horse gourd.
"What are you looking at? I am rich. My father gave it to me. Are you as rich as my father? He is in the real estate business..."
I just don't understand, why is this guy showing off his wealth again? !
I was helpless and didn't want to get too entangled with this dying man.
I picked up the money from the ground with a smile, put it in my pocket, and said to the young man, "Since you gave me the money, thank you."
After saying that, I shrank my neck and walked towards the Golden Dragon Frenzy Bar.
The young man was surprised to see me take the money and leave directly.
He uttered a few insults and curses.
What I didn't know was that this guy was actually completely drunk.
As for him, he was not a rich second generation at all, he was just pretending to be one. As for why he drank so much and lost his temper, it was because he had a bad time at the bar tonight, and his girlfriend, who he had just pursued, saw through his identity and broke up with him.
The young man, who complained about his life experience, felt that his parents were incompetent, and had broken up with his girlfriend, drank a lot of wine and got himself completely drunk.
He thought that alcohol could numb him, but he didn't know that it was not anesthesia, but another level of self-depreciation. He was a guy without ambition.
I shook my head and looked down on the young man in my heart.
"Master, do you want me to teach him a lesson? He is so rude!" The evil spirit Xiao Hei asked me while he lay on my shoulder.
I shook my head and said, "No, he won't live long."
It could be that I am too talkative, or it could be that my youthful life span has just run out at this time.
"Bang!"
There was a loud muffled sound behind me.
When I looked back, I found that the young man had been hit by the car and flew out, his body falling into the green belt. His arrogant face was covered in blood.
After a few movements, the young man lost his temper.
"See, this is what it means, wealth and honor are determined by fate, life and death are in the hands of God!"
I shrugged and said.
Of course, I'm not being sarcastic, I'm just expressing my feelings. After all, I've seen a lot of life and death separations since I got the Yin-Yang Soul Transfer Notes.
The ghost Xiao Hei nodded and said, "It's true."
There was a car accident. A young man was hit and killed by a taxi. He was dead before the ambulance arrived.
There were a lot of people watching the excitement around, and traffic was blocked for a while.
When I paid attention, I found that there was a ghost lying on the back of the frightened taxi driver. That ghost happened to be a ghost of seduction.
"Xiao Hei, is that the haunted ghost the one you saw?"
I raised my finger and pointed at the ghost lying on the taxi driver's back and asked the ghost Xiao Hei.
Yin Ling Xiao Hei nodded and said in surprise: "It really is that guy."
I told Xiao Hei, "Go, kill that guy! I'll go into the bar first, you wait for me outside."
"Okay, Master, I'll go right away. It seems that the ghost who catches souls is not an easy person to deal with. I am your ghost with the same fate as you, and I have also been blessed with the fate of a Taoist priest who catches ghosts. If I help you kill the vicious ghosts, I can also accumulate some merit."
The evil spirit Xiao Hei flew towards the blood-stained taxi.
I walked into the Golden Dragon Frenzy Bar alone and leisurely.
