"In other words, this is the source of the thing we are looking for?" Duan Rongrong asked in a low voice.

"This level of Yin Qi... not necessarily." Yan Kai shook his head slightly.

At this time, Lu Sheng has already begun to invite a few strange people to show off his skills.

The Taoist who spoke before laughed.

"The skill of the poor is this."

He stretched out his hand to grab it, found a stone from nowhere, held it in his hand and squeezed it hard.

swish...

The fine stone powder was squeezed out from between his fingers and drifted down with the wind.

The rest of the people who came together looked at him in amazement.

Obviously, even the strongest masters in Jiulian City may not be able to do this kind of kung fu.

The ranger, who was disguised as a man, stared at the Taoist with serious eyes.

Even Yan Kai paid more attention to this Taoist.

With this kind of strength, it is necessary to have extremely strong inner skills to crush stones into powder. I didn't expect to meet such a master here.

Surrounded by guards and servants, some people couldn't help but let out low voices.

Lu Sheng stared at the Taoist, didn't speak, just frowned.

The Taoist laughed.

"How is it? Eldest son, can the hand of the poor Dao still catch your eye?"

Lu Sheng exhaled slowly.

Suddenly his eyes sharpened.

"This is clearly the smell of fossil powder! Where is the liar who dares to fool me! Take it for me!"

The people around were taken aback for a moment.

Before they could react, two strong guards rushed over and pinned the Taoist to the ground.

The Taoist yelled and struggled, but he was held down by two people at this moment, so he didn't have the domineering inner strength that he had crushed into powder just now.

Just an ordinary person.

The guard at the side asked in a rough voice. He was one of the bodyguards who saw the Eldest Young Master show off his might and kill the female ghost last night, and now he has completely become the most loyal supporter of the Eldest Young Master Lu Sheng.

"Eldest son, what should we do with this person? Do you want to notify the people from the yamen?"

Lu Sheng looked at the struggling Taoist on the ground with disgust.

"You don't need to send it off, just pull it out and chop it up."

"No! Eldest son, the younger one is just confused for a while and wants to earn some money to live! It's just a moment of fascination!"

When the Taoist heard this, he was frightened and begged for mercy loudly. He was shaking like a sieve, his face was pale, and he was sweating profusely.

"My lord, please forgive me!!"

"yes!"

The big guard didn't care, and led the Taoist out of the courtyard.

On the side of the school grounds, there is a torture chamber dedicated to executions.

The Lu family was so powerful that he executed several people by himself, and the yamen turned a blind eye.

Yan Kai and the others watched in shock as they watched the man being dragged out. Soon, a scream was faintly heard from outside.

"Okay, everyone, we've cleared away the shams, now let's ask the next one to show off his skills."

Lu Sheng returned to his previous soft smile.

The rest of the people also had a better understanding of the temperament of the eldest son of the Lu family.

It looks like he has a weak body, but he turns his face when he says he will turn his face. He is decisive in his actions and ruthless in his actions. He is really a character.

After a while of silence, the second one to come out was Master Zhentan, a monk from Honglian Temple. The master's hands were shaking a little, but he still stood up bravely.

"The poor monk... The poor monk suddenly remembered that there are still urgent matters to be done in the temple...."

He came out not to show his skills, but to slip away.

Facing Lu Sheng, Master Zhentan was sweating on his forehead when he spoke.

The younger monk behind him was even more unbearable. Not only was his forehead sweating, his face was pale, and his feet were shaking non-stop.

"Since Master has something important to deal with, please go first."

Lu Sheng smiled, still gentle and polite, he didn't make things difficult for the two of them, and immediately asked the maid to guide Master Zhentan and the two to leave.

Three people went at once.

There are three people left, they are You Xia'er and Yan Kai.

"Next, let me do it."

The ranger, who was dressed as a man, stepped forward and drew out the two knives around his waist.

"I'm good at light work, short-distance long-distance raids and follow-up investigations. It should be helpful to find missing persons."

"Oh? So, I don't know how to call this lady?"

Lu Sheng smiled.

"Specialized bee."

"Chuanfeng?" Lu Sheng was taken aback.

The female ranger quickly wrote two words on the stone table with her hands.

Only then did everyone realize that her surname was Zhuan.

"So, Miss Zhuanfeng, how can I show off your skills?"

Lu Sheng showed a little curiosity.

The bee sniffed his nose, squatted down, and checked the ground carefully. Then put your ear close to the ground and listen.

After a while, she stood up.

"I can judge, Mr. Lu, it will not take more than two hours for you people to come here and this other courtyard.

There should be two groups of guards and maids going in and out to clean here, the number of them should not exceed ten, and the time should be an hour ago.

Then the Eldest Young Master arrived, and none of the Eldest Young Master and the guards around you have ever entered the room in the other courtyard.

Apparently this yard was temporarily opened up to test us. Even you didn't have time to enter the room. "

These words were spoken.

Immediately, Lu Sheng and the rest of the people opened their eyes wide. Not only them, but also the guards and maids around them all looked as if they had seen a ghost.

Just lying on the ground, looking, listening, and smelling, you can judge so many things.

This lady bee is really a strange person!

"sharp!"

Lu Sheng applauded lightly.

"Miss Special Bee, no matter how you judged it, you passed the test. Next, these two..."

He looked at Yan Kai and the two of them.

Yan Kai is fine, but Duan Rongrong is getting hairy from the sight of this eldest son.

The person who was still smiling just now turned his face when he said he would turn his back on him, and immediately pulled that Taoist down and cut him down.

This kind of person, even if he smiles at you, you don't know if he intends to kill you the next moment

Duan Rongrong has already defined this Mr. Lu as a dangerous person in his heart.

Yan Kai's expression was flat, and he took a step forward.

"If I'm not mistaken."

He stared at Lu Sheng with piercing eyes.

"Young Master Lu's injury was caused by the attack of Yin Qi, right?"

"oh?"

Lu Sheng raised his eyebrows, he was really interested this time.

The man in front of him could really see something.

"The injury should be in the lower abdomen, but luckily it didn't hurt the internal organs. It's just that, if the yin qi enters the body, if you don't expel it, it will eventually hurt the yang qi.

This is Pindao's homemade yang-returning water. If you have the guts, you can take it and try it. "

He took out a small black porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it over.

The maid at the side quickly took it, put it on a tray, and brought it to Lu Sheng.

"Remember to return the bottle to me after drinking." Yan Kai added.

Lu Sheng looked at the porcelain bottle, picked it up, pulled out the cork, put it under his nose and smelled it.

Just smelling it like this, he felt that the coldness in his body was dispelled a lot. A hot smell came into his nostrils from the bottle, making him feel a little hot all over.

It was indeed because he had been slapped in the lower abdomen before, and after returning to his room to rest, he felt cold all over. The injuries on his body were second to none, the main reason was that the coldness was always lingering in his body, no matter whether it was taking yang-replenishing herbs or exercising in the sun, it was useless.

At that time, after taking the positive medicine or exercising, the whole body would feel warm, but once I rested, the cold feeling in the body would come back again.

Looking at the porcelain bottle in front of him, Lu Sheng smiled, picked it up and poured it into his mouth without hesitation.

A faint smell of rust permeated the mouth, accompanied by a spicy and stimulating smell, a stream of heat slipped from the throat into the throat.

Lu Sheng let out a long breath, feeling warm all over his body, like the sun at ninety o'clock in summer, making his whole body feel comfortable.

The coldness before melted like spring snow in the sun, and soon it was no longer felt.

"The Taoist priest is really powerful." Now Lu Sheng knew that he had met an expert. "This bottle of Yang-returning water will be included in the remuneration."

"So I've passed?"

Yan Kai asked.

"Of course! The three follow me."

Lu Sheng got up slowly, let the guards support him, and led the three of them into the inner room of the Yellow Crane Courtyard.

The maids all left one after another, and all the guards went out, only the burly man from before stayed by Lu Sheng's side.

Click.

The door is closed.

There were only five people in the room.

"The specific process is like this...."

Lu Sheng began to talk about the first missing person.

Yan Kai and the others listened carefully, asking some detailed questions from time to time.

If Lu Sheng knew something, he would answer it one by one. If he didn't know, the burly man beside him would add it.

A conversation lasted for half an hour.

After Yan Kai understood all the situation, he lowered his head and thought for a while.

After a while he looked up again.

"The kind of ghost that the young master encountered, the poor Taoist called it a ghost."

"Ghost? What is this?"

Lu Sheng asked back, this is really his first contact with the mysterious side of this world.

"Ghosts and ghosts themselves are not transformed after death, but ghosts condensed from human resentment, jealousy, hatred, grievances, and other emotions, absorbing some mysterious power in the surrounding environment." Yan Kai said solemnly.

"It's easy to deal with one or two ghosts, but once left alone for a long time, the infection will continue to spread, killing more people, and then transform into new ghosts.

Judging from the concentration of yin energy on the Eldest Young Master, the ghost you came into contact with should have been letting go for a long time. "

"Let's let it go for a while?? So, how many ghosts are there in Jiulian City??"

Lu Sheng's face changed slightly.

"Very likely." Yan Kai nodded. "Okay, I'll leave this matter to Pindao to deal with. You can just recuperate at home. But Pindao is only responsible for dealing with ghosts, but finding someone is just..."

"I'll find someone." Zhuan Feng said. "I have encountered this kind of ghost thing several times before, and I have some experience."

Lu Sheng nodded in response.

"The Taoist priest, I don't know what I can do for you?"

He now believed that the Daoist Yan Kai in front of him should be the legendary professional.

"This demon is not something you can deal with. The most urgent thing is that since you have already provoked it, you'd better move out of Jiulian City immediately, so as not to become food for nourishing the demon."

Yan Kai said lightly.

"In addition, we are here to investigate the whole story of the Xu family's extermination case."

"I also want to do my part."

Lu Sheng said seriously.

"If I say no, don't use it. No matter how many ordinary people come, it's useless. Even if you have practiced a little martial arts, it will only become a drag on us.

Martial arts are useless against ghosts! "

Yan Kai was not polite, frowning and speaking bluntly.

Duan Rongrong on the side was breaking out in a cold sweat, in case he offended the Lu Gongzi in front of him... .

Lu Sheng wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Yan Kai.

"Okay, needless to say, this is not something you ordinary people can get involved in."
