Chapter 37: Chapter 37
The black SUV drove into the city along the traffic flow, Yin Tangfeng first sent Lu Linglan home, and then returned to Yunjinguan with Tong Shangyan.
The bodies of the six old people have been taken away, and all the young people from Shenjia Village who stayed in the temple have left, only Yuan Min is left to wait for Yin Tangfeng to come back.
After lunch, Zhang Dongmu greeted all the people who should be called, sat together in the meeting hall, and listened to Yin Tangfeng explain the affairs of Shenjia Village in detail.
After hearing about the grievances between Xiu Po and the six village chiefs, the several officials in charge sighed. Yun Jin watched this unwarranted disaster and could only swallow it in silence. Now he hoped that Sun Bingban would wake up and recover as soon as possible.
At this point, the matter in Shenjia Village came to an end, Yuan Min didn't stay any longer, and left immediately, the studio opened tomorrow, Yin Tangfeng didn't go back for the time being, let Yuan Min go back to sit in town.
After the matter was finished, everyone dispersed.
Tong Shangyan sent Yuan Min to the mountain gate, and Yin Tangfeng stayed behind, so he naturally wanted to follow, the two exhorted each other and parted ways.
Zhao Youruo led a few little ones to wait for Tong Shangyan, saying "I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you very much", but Tong Shangyan couldn't tell that the little ones really missed him, probably because of him pastry.
Fortunately, he was also willing to cook, so he led a bunch of small beans to the dining hall.
At the same time, after coming out of the meeting hall, Yin Tangfeng first went to the library where Zhou Bo's relics were placed to take out his manuscripts, and then went to Zhang Dongmu's room—although the matter in Shenjia Village has come to an end, it does not mean that everything is dust. settled.
Xiu Po's words have always made him brood. These days, he has been continuously extracting information from Xiu Po's words, and using this to speculate on the disappearance of Xiu Po's daughter according to the chronological order of events—
More than 20 years ago, the six village chiefs took a fancy to the fate of Azhen, the daughter of Xiupo, and sacrificed her to the "devil". Ah Zhen's body was not found, and Ah Zhen was finally judged to be missing.
Xiupo, who lost her daughter, became insane after searching for nothing.
Then, more than 20 years later, for some reason, the six village chiefs talked about the truth about what happened to Ah Zhen back then, and Xiu Po learned about it by mistake.
In order to avenge her daughter, Xiupo practiced the vicious witchcraft inherited from her aunt on the six people, and ended the hatred by exchanging one for six.
"Brother, don't you feel familiar with the disappearance of Xiupo's daughter?" Yin Tangfeng changed the method, telling Zhang Dongmu about Ah Zhen's "disappearance" and said: "The battle of the small canal recorded in the master's handbook, at the beginning... was People are missing!"
After he mentioned it, Zhang Dongmu's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly opened Zhou Bo's handbook, and turned to the page he had read countless times.
The so-called "Battle of the Small Canal" refers to Zhou Botong Xiaoshui's joint acquaintance with Taoists to destroy the evil cultivators and rescue the kidnapped people. Because the abandoned factory where the evil cultivators hid hostages was located next to the small canal, this battle between good and evil was also called Called the "Battle of the Little Canal".
However, what Zhang Dongmu wants to see is not how fierce and exciting the fight between his master and the evil cultivator is, but the reason why they traced the kidnapping of the people in the first place.
About 25 years ago, Zhou Bo and Tong Xiaoshui were entrusted by a friend to find their missing daughter and apprentice.
This man's surname is Chu, and he is considered to be half of the Taoist sect. He manages the business handed down by his ancestors, and specially provides magic tools such as cinnabar and yellow talismans for the Xuanmen. supply.
Boss Chu has only one daughter, and he regards her as the apple of his eye, so he takes in an apprentice who is close to his eyes and trains him as his son-in-law.
The two young people are childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts, and Boss Chu is happy to see it succeed. The only headache is that his daughter is spoiled a bit wayward. She is not very old, but she always thinks about going out to make a living.
Boss Chu didn't take care of one of them, and the two rolled up the family's ancestral gossip mirror, left a book and left.
Although the Chu family is considered half a Taoist family, Boss Chu is very clear about the weight of his daughter and apprentice, so he immediately asks for connections and connections, and wants to get back the two little ancestors.
However, after nearly a year of searching, there was no clue. Just when Zhou Bo and Tong Xiaoshui returned to Yu An, he bravely asked them for help.Zhou Bo has always been kind-hearted, so he and Tong Xiaoshui immediately divination for the two young people.
The hexagram image showed the location of the two people, Zhou Botong Xiaoshui and the two immediately set off and followed the location shown by the hexagram image.
Unexpectedly, this search fell into a deeper quagmire. The location shown by the hexagrams did not find the daughter of the Chu family, but Zhou and Tong accidentally discovered another missing person.
The missing person is a young man, the only son in the family, an elementary school teacher, he is humble, has a stable schedule, and has a very harmonious relationship with his family. He never came home after work one day. His parents did not believe that his son would suddenly leave without saying goodbye. I have been searching hard, but there is no clue.
Zhou Bo and Tong Xiaoshui felt strange, and used their personal relationship to inquire about the disappearances in Yu'an, and found that during the time when the daughter of the Chu family ran away from home, there were many cases of young men and women disappearing for no reason in Yu'an City. , there are clues to two missing cases, both of which show that they are related to the evil cultivator Shiyu who has disappeared.
Shi Yu was originally an orthodox disciple of Xuanmen, and had a very high talent for cultivation. Unfortunately, as he got older, he became more paranoid, and finally betrayed his teacher and became a crooked evil spirit.
After Zhou Bo realized that it was not easy for these people to disappear, he teamed up with many acquainted fellow Taoists, and finally found out that Shi Yu was hiding in an abandoned warehouse.
This warehouse is located next to a small canal. Yu'an City has well-developed waterways. The small canal is a branch of the Pingfu River. Most of the warehouses along the river are private warehouses, one after another, covering a very large area.
With the planning of urban reconstruction, the ten mile radius of the warehouse has been designated as an area to be demolished, and the buildings have long been empty. Therefore, Shi Yu gathered a group of evil cultivators, kidnapped dozens of men and women and hid here for nearly a year, but they were not found!
Zhou Bo, Tong Xiaoshui and a group of Taoists immediately formulated a plan to rescue the hostages and destroy the evil cultivators. Everything went smoothly. The only thing that Zhou Bo couldn't figure out was, why did Shi Yu kidnap so many people?He neither harmed the lives of these people nor used them to extort property. Why did he arrest these young men and women?
The answer to the mystery was not solved until they discovered that the warehouse had abnormal mana fluctuations and had to act in advance.
According to Zhou Bo's handwriting, it was a moonless night. After they rushed into the warehouse park, they were immediately resisted by the evil cultivators inside. Both sides suffered casualties during the battle. He and Tong Xiaoshui had been looking for Shi Yu's The trail eventually found him in a roofless warehouse.
At that time, his upper body was covered with strange bloody symbols painted on his skin, and he was sitting cross-legged next to a magic circle.
In the center of the circle lay a pregnant woman with loose long hair and a protruding belly!
The belly of the pregnant woman was high, and the child inside seemed to be wriggling, and it looked like it was about to be born.
The white dress of the pregnant woman was stained with blood, and she groaned weakly on the ground. The magic circle under her emitted a coquettish red light, like...a sacrifice to the devil.
Zhou Bo and Tong Xiaoshui naturally wanted to save people, they rushed forward without hesitation, Shi Yu immediately fought, one against two, preventing them from approaching.
The three of them have only heard of their name, they have never seen their person, and they don't know the depth of each other, and now they are facing each other directly, and it is difficult to distinguish between them.
Zhou Bo and Tong Xiaoshui have been partners for many years, and they cooperate quite tacitly. There is no redundant movement between each move, and there is no flaw that can be found.
However, Shi Yu is younger than the two of them, and he is at his peak state. He is strong and vigorous, and his moves are weird. It seems that he uses righteous methods, but all of them are full of sinister and deadly spirits. Suddenly, he had a fight with Zhou and Tong. have equal shares.
When the three of them were fighting inextricably, the pregnant woman suddenly burst into screams of pain, and then, an extremely thin man rushed out from nowhere, he quickly ran into the middle of the magic circle, squatted down, and tried to help his face Pregnant women like white paper.
It's a pity that before the man could make a move, Shi Yu had already spotted him. After a cover-up, he retreated to advance, distanced himself from Zhou and Tong, and took the opportunity to throw a steel nail the length of an adult male's palm at the man.
The steel nails flew quickly and went straight into the man's back. The man staggered forward, but caring about the pregnant woman in front of him, he barely stabilized his body and knelt beside the pregnant woman.
The pregnant woman turned her head, and after seeing the man's face clearly, she reached out to touch him, but the cramping in her stomach took away all her strength.
At this time, Shi Yu cut his palm and pressed it on the magic circle. The light of the magic circle was shining brightly, and the scream of the pregnant woman became even more horrific. The man who was hit by the steel nail was also in great pain. Holding his last breath, he stretched out his hand to hold the pregnant woman's hand .
The blood from under the pregnant woman flowed out like running water, the pupils of the man beside her were already dilated, tears were streaming from the corners of the eyes of the bloodless woman, her eyes slowly shifted from the man's face to the sky without stars and moon, her other hand was trembling Putting it on his stomach, he burst into a roar that seemed to be crying and laughing. The sound was like a cuckoo crying blood, and it was like a hundred ghosts crying at night, which made people creepy.
However, the sound didn't last long. When the baby's cry sounded, the pregnant woman's voice stopped abruptly as if being sawn off.
At the same time, Shi Yu looked up at the newly born baby and walked over excitedly...
Although Zhou and Tong didn't know what happened, they knew that Shi Yu had to be stopped, so they rushed over again and wrestled with him.
This time, I don't know if it was because Shi Yu had consumed his blood on the magic circle, but his attack was not as weird as before. After a lot of effort, the two of them finally subdued him.
Zhou Bo handed him over to Tong Xiaoshui to take care of him, and then ran into the magic circle to see the newborn baby.
The child lying in the blood was red and wrinkled, not too small, but its voice was as weak as a cat's meowing. He twisted the umbilical cord, hurriedly cleaned the child, wrapped it in clothes, and then went to see the pregnant woman and the man. No pulse.
Before he could grieve for the loss of his two lives, a powerful mana approached from behind. Zhou Bo was vigilant, hugged the child tightly and dodged very quickly. Just as he stabilized his body and turned around, he saw a flower bursting out at the place where he was just now. The sparks blasted the surrounding area into blackened black.
Before Zhou Bo could be surprised, the second wave of powerful attacks came right away, but the attacks only stared at his feet, as if they didn't want to hurt the baby in his arms.
Even so, Zhou Bo clearly felt that the mana of the other party was stronger than his, but it was just a trick to avoid killing him.
Seeing that something was wrong, Tong Xiaoshui hurried over to help. The two teamed up to attack and defend. The situation changed slightly, but they were still no match for that person, and they couldn't even attract the opponent to show up.
"What kind of a hero is he who hides his head and shows his tail!" Tong Xiaoshui broke the boat and threw a lightning-inducing talisman, trying to use the power of nine days to force the other party to show up.
Not long after, the sky was covered with clouds, thunder and lightning flashed, and the dazzling lightning fell one after another into the warehouse without a roof, making the already dilapidated warehouse even worse.
And the figure hiding in the dark finally had nothing to hide under this attack, and walked in front of Tong Xiaoshui from the darkness.
