"Many people are now showing symptoms of lethargy. Could it be that the Anti-Life Talisman has begun to absorb the lifespan of ordinary people?"

Lan Ting shook his head: "That's not the case. Life span is the foundation of life and it is not so easily shaken. From what you described, people have been sleepy in recent days. Now it is just a prelude. It will take at least half a month before they really start to absorb their life span."

"The process of formally absorbing lifespan is extremely long and difficult to detect."

"But there is also a way to forcefully activate the Anti-Life Talisman."

"What method!" Lu Yang asked.

Lan Ting said seriously: "Use the Reverse Lifespan Talisman as the node to form the Reverse Lifespan Formation, and use human blood as the guide. You don't need to wait for half a month to activate the formation, and use the lifespan of a mortal to improve your own cultivation!"

In fact, the Reverse Lifespan Talisman and the Reverse Lifespan Formation are quite unpopular knowledge and are only recorded in a few books. And because the Reverse Lifespan Talisman is a real evil way, the books that record it are listed as banned books. Even those who are knowledgeable about formations may have only heard of the name of the Reverse Lifespan Talisman but do not recognize its pattern.

That is to say, Lanting was born in the Laurel Fairy Palace and was qualified to access these banned books.

She claimed that she did not have a deep knowledge of battle formations, but the knowledge she revealed now was definitely not something that could be described by the four words "not very deep".

Lan Ting added: "But the person who wrote the anti-life talisman should not be able to reverse the life formation. Before the anti-life formation was activated, there was no sign of sleepiness, which is more secretive. But it is also possible that the anti-life formation is still being set up and has not yet been completed."

Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu were listening on the side and also realized the problem. Now the people in the entire Yanjiang County were sleepy, which meant that the anti-longevity talisman was hidden in various locations in Yanjiang County!

The people in the dark have big plans!

"After the Anti-Life Formation is activated, to what realm can the caster be elevated?"

Lan Ting shook his head: "It's hard to say. It depends on how much life span the formation will absorb. It's hard to tell at the moment."

"Let's go to Dashiqiao and have a look. There might be more there!" Lu Yang called three people.

There is a big river called Yinlong River on the west side of Yeonggang County. The flow rate of Yinlong River is slow when it passes through Yeonggang County. People often like to play here. It is a major characteristic attraction of Yeonggang County. The word "Yeongang" in the name of Yeonggang County comes from this.

The "big stone bridge" mentioned by Lu Zhi, who attempted burglary, is here.

It was late at night and there was no one over the Yinlong River. The four of them went to the big stone bridge and searched it from top to bottom, but they couldn't find any new anti-longevity talisman.

"Sure enough, the other party is not stupid. He would not place two anti-longevity talismans in the same place."

Early the next morning, Captain Wei found Chief Captain Fang Qingyun.

"Xiao Wei, what do you want from me?"

"Master, have you noticed that recently the people of Yanjiang County generally go to bed early at night and cannot get up in the morning?"

Fang Qingyun nodded: "That's true. I think it's possible that the consumption level in Yanjiang County has increased, but the income has not increased, which has led to great pressure on people's lives and they have to work hard to earn money during the day."

Captain Wei rubbed his brows painfully and carefully organized his words: "Master, I know you really want to be promoted. You have been reading social economics books recently to lay a good foundation for future promotion, but have you ever thought that you are not suitable for development at all?"

"If you have something to say, say it. If you have to fart, fart now!"

"… It's like this. Last night, a caring citizen caught a thief who broke into a house. According to the thief, he accidentally got a talisman paper that can make people sleepy. It can make people within a radius of 50 meters sleepy."

Captain Wei took out the talisman paper from the sealed box.

The seal has a sealing effect. He found that the sleeping talisman had no effect on him, but it was extremely effective on ordinary people. Everyone who worked the night shift with him fell asleep.

He had no choice but to lock the talisman paper in the box.

"Do you recognize this thing?"

Fang Qingyun looked at it for a moment and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know him either: "Chief Li is well-informed, maybe he knows him."

When the two of them found County Magistrate Li, he was busy handling government affairs.

The two of them admired County Magistrate Li very much. As a Jindan-stage cultivator, County Magistrate Li had been in Yanjiang County for twenty years, but Yanjiang County had not changed at all. However, whenever his superiors came to inspect Yanjiang County and County Magistrate Li went to report to his superiors, Yanjiang County would always show its best side, as if Yanjiang County had undergone earth-shaking changes in the past twenty years.

"County Magistrate Li, I have something to report to you!" Fang Qingyun said.

Magistrate Li put down his brush and motioned for the two to sit down and talk.

Captain Wei reported last night's situation truthfully and took out the talisman paper for Magistrate Li to review.

Li Junshou narrowed his eyes and uttered a sigh, as if he remembered something. He fell into deep thought and said after a few minutes, "If my memory is correct, this is the life-reversing talisman?"

"Thirty years ago, I was in charge of combating the magic path in Poyang County. When I was exchanging experiences with colleagues from other counties, one of my colleagues introduced this spell. He said it was a life-reversing spell that could absorb a person's lifespan and convert it into cultivation. It was an undisputed magic method."

County Magistrate Li said solemnly: "The Spring Festival is approaching, and a large number of people from other counties will come to visit, including ordinary people and monks. The Spring Festival is the most resounding signboard of our Yanjiang County to the outside world, and we cannot make any mistakes. You must catch the evildoers who posted these talismans before the Spring Festival begins!"

"These evildoers are simply lawless and don't take the imperial court seriously!"

"Captain Fang, you must pay special attention to this matter. If the anti-longevity talisman becomes popular, there will be endless troubles!"

Then County Magistrate Li changed the subject: "Of course, if you catch the culprit, it will be a great achievement. I will report it to the higher-ups. If possible, you'd better make a breakthrough in your cultivation. Then your promotion will be a sure thing."

"yes!"

"It's alright, you guys can go now. I have another meeting later."

The next day, Lu Yang and his companions wanted to continue looking for the location of the anti-longevity talisman based on the clues. Before they left the house, Captain Chu sent someone to tell Lu Yang to come over.

Lu Yang didn't understand why Captain Chu only called him. He was secretly alert and felt that something was strange.

Captain Chu sat on a jade chair, his head supported by his hands, wearing a mask, and said in a hoarse voice: "I heard that you caught a thief last night and found a yellow talisman paper that can make people sleep?"

Lu Yang said respectfully: "Yes, I suspect that the yellow talisman paper is a means of our magic path. I want to find the person who wrote the talisman paper, kill him and rob him, and learn the skill of drawing this kind of talisman paper!"

Captain Chu waved his hand and said, "It is necessary to build good relations with the government, but this time is different. The government will vigorously investigate this matter. With the involvement of a Jindan-stage cultivator, the truth will soon come out. You should not intervene, lest you expose your identity and get yourself involved."

"It's just a piece of talisman paper that makes people sleepy. It's not worth the risk."

Lu Yang was shocked. Captain Chu knew about what happened last night this morning, and he also knew that a Jindan cultivator would take action, but he himself didn't even know about this.

Yan Jiangduo has planted an undercover agent in the government!
