Chapter 37 Clues
Mountain Inn.

This place has long been in ruins. After two or three months, weeds are overgrown, spider silk is all over the beams and decayed, and many animals have settled here.

When the merchants heard about the accident at the inn, they also gave up their residence here. No one came and went, and it gradually became desolate.

The three arrived and frightened away the beasts, and Jiang Han walked around the ruins seriously, investigating the scene.

Wu Ming and Liu Zhaojun were chatting idly by the side, the red phosphorus horses were kept nearby, watching the wind and going to play by themselves at the same time.

"Why did Daoist Liu get involved in this matter? The case is complicated. If nothing can be found in the investigation, it will be a waste of effort." He asked curiously.

As a result, the female Taoist choked Wu Ming with a word, and she said in her unique cold voice: "Because I have gained a lot of Taoism."

But he thought about it, and it's true. Daoist servants have more jobs and less money, and slaying demons and demons may not be an easy task. Demons and ghosts are not stupid. Standing in place and waiting for Taoists to gain experience, they are more cunning and vicious than humans. Very good.

The few missions Wu Ming took before relied on Jiang Han's tracking method, otherwise he could only eat the ashes of ghosts, and it would only add up to ten skills.

Thinking of this young man's luck, the rivers and lakes are dangerous, if Mengxin Daotong's first experience was not accompanied by two "experienced" big sisters, he must have suffered a loss.

"It should be the Suihou Zhu that is taking effect." Wu Ming thought to himself, and he felt that he owed the broker Bai Kui a small favor.

On the side, Liu Zhaojun hugged his chest and sighed: "Taoist skills are hard to earn. If you want to be promoted to a Taoist priest, you must have a complete system of spells. Guarding, attacking, flying, etc. are all indispensable. A subtle Taoist art requires five skills. Taoism and Magical Artifacts must also be required."

Her chattering appearance conflicts with her cold and glamorous temperament, and there is a kind of cute contrast, which looks strange and cute.

Wu Ming also learned about the normal state of Laoshan Taoist disciples from chatting. They only taught the meditation method that suits them after three years of introductory training, and then continued to visualize day and night. Their spirituality grew slowly. It will take at least ten years of work to prepare all the spells and prepare for promotion to Yinshen.

There are only a few special cases like him. After eight years of accumulation in Daqin, he obtained the Dao Fruit of the Wandering Warlock, which is equivalent to rebuilding, and he entered the Tao overnight.

"found it!"

Suddenly Jiang Han shouted excitedly.

Hearing this, Moyu's duo rushed over, stepped on the ruins and looked down, and saw a dirty petite girl curled up in a face-sized compartment somewhere.

Wu Ming was shocked, cats are liquids, women are made of water, so they are especially able to hide?
"What did you find?" Liu Zhaojun frowned and asked.

"The hiding place of that evil cultivator, I have also confirmed that this case is the work of the Caijushi." Jiang Han said solemnly.She is too familiar with the playwrights, and Wu Zuo is also a low-level one, so she can't be fooled!
Then she pointed to the ruins, analyzed the superiority of the inn's spatial structure based on the decoration of some ruined walls, and cleverly created visual dislocation and extra space. The props were hidden in cubicles similar to Jiang Han's curled up, sticking out their heads.

Wu Ming understands it, it is actually like some modern stages, hiding a large number of performers through ingenious design, it looks amazing to the audience.

"I remember that hundreds of heads were beheaded that night. No colorist can just watch the prop man in his hand die." He noticed the blind spot.

"I don't know about this." Jiang Han hesitantly came out of the cubicle, "Maybe it's a trick of separating the heads, but the props are actually not dead."

"It makes sense, but the Qisha Talisman has not yet been promoted to the second-level talisman after killing hundreds of people. Maybe only a dozen people were killed, and the rest were deceived by magic tricks." Wu Ming agreed with this statement, but he was still vaguely uneasy.

At that time, he was not necessarily weaker than ordinary Taoists, but he still had a premonition of an invincible crisis. There should be things at the second level to be able to do this... However, Taoists who are proficient in the art of heaven concluded that only the level of Taoists was involved.

The two statements contradict each other, Wu Ming took this point to heart and made all the preparations.The only regret he has now is that he didn't do it himself at the beginning. It was Wang Heng who beheaded the beauty's head, and some details could not be seen clearly.

Jiang Han confirmed the identity of the behind-the-scenes, but it was actually useless, the energy had already dissipated, and he could not use tracking spells to lock it.

However, it is easy to break through if there is a direction. The three returned to the Gaotang County Government Office and began to search for the identities of some folk jugglers, and invited Youshen and Land to inquire about gossip in the territory.

In the yamen, several illusory black-armored soldiers stood in the air, one of them nodded and bowed his head and said: "The elders and the younger ones know so much. There is indeed no extraordinary incident in Gaotang County recently."

"Besides..." another Youshen'er with a mean face interjected: "Although the conspiracy of the beauty's head happened in our county, it is in the wild. It has long deviated from the official path and is not under our jurisdiction. You know Yes, without permission from the government, we cannot go out of the county."

A Youshen suggested: "Go and ask about the land in the village."

Wu Ming and others who were sitting around a table below heard the words and were helpless, so they gave up and said, "Okay, you guys go, remember to keep an eye on the county recently, and let me know as soon as possible if something important happens in the lower class."

After the wandering gods left, Jiang Han looked at the two of them and said calmly, "It seems that there is no hope for the City God."

Before that, they had interviewed dozens of folk jugglers, and even asked You Shen to go through all the details of these low-level people, but unfortunately, none of them were evil monks who were the first case of a beauty, and those people themselves were not extraordinary. In the end, it turned into an anti-crime and evil campaign.

"Unfortunately, our cultivation is not high enough to drive the immortal officials and Taoist temples in the county to do things." Liu Zhaojun pursed his lips and said, "It's better to activate the City God's Law, and then all the ascetics hidden in the county will be like the lines on their palms." Clear."

"Haha, you're overthinking." Wu Ming said with a smile, "It would cost a lot of money to activate the city god's domain. Even if the deacons in the dao came, they would have to apply to the county government first. Besides, the city god may not be willing to use his own divine power reserves."

"If you ask me, the big man's control over the wild is too weak. When we look for the Temple of the City God, the wandering gods don't care. When we look for the land and mountain gods, they don't care." Jiang Han sighed.

Hearing this, Wu Ming thought of his killing in Yangqiu County, and couldn't help shaking his head, the officials would avoid matters involving knight-errants and supernatural beings whenever they could, and left it to the ascetics to deal with.

He said: "There is no way. It's not that the imperial court doesn't want to take care of it, but that the population is insufficient. The god system and the monastic system want to include the wilderness. Population is the key. If the land is sparsely populated, it will not be able to provide sufficient popularity. Naturally, the land and mountain gods If you can’t stand up, you can’t start monitoring.”

"In fact, all Taoists have tried their best. In ancient times, places like Laoshan and Taishan were occupied by big demons and ghosts. They were almost like ghost countries on the ground. If it weren't for our generation of monks to break through and take root, the situation would be even worse than it is now. .”

Several people discussed it for a while, and finally Jiang Han decided: "It is expected that no clues can be found in Youshen Land. It is too easy for ascetics to hide them. Besides, the few groups of Taoists who can use extraordinary means to solve the case have long Just did it."

"Now, we can only use the most trivial way to handle the case, that is, to search the county's public files and past missing cases, etc. If there is any existence, there must be clues."

Here, Wu Ming volunteered. He used to be the chief accountant and deputy historian, and he had accumulated rich experience in the campaign against tyrants and registered households. In a short period of time, he was able to find several clues from massive files and unsolved cases.

"This evil cultivator is very cautious. I have observed the changes in the number of missing people in Pingyuan County over the past ten years, and they are all maintained at the same level. The hundreds of tool people he enslaved should have been accumulated little by little in the past, sharing the risk equally." Wu Ming analyzed.

"However, I still caught him. If we say that we flee from Pingyuan County immediately after committing a crime, then the average disappearance rate in the past two or three months will definitely drop a bit, but it still maintains the level of the past ten years. Besides, Pingyuan The number of missing people in the county is higher than that of other large counties, and there are ghosts in it."

Wu Ming had a clear mind, and decided to take the initiative to attack in a stupid way, and investigate the disappearance cases in the past two or three months one by one. Anyway, he can use extraordinary means to extract Qi and track them, and the efficiency will be much higher.

…………

In a family in the county, Jiang Han obtained the relics of a missing person and extracted energy from it. She pinched the Fa Jue, and a flash of spiritual light bloomed.

A paper kite was folded, and flew out of the window agilely, automatically looking for things that matched this ray of energy.

Consonance Matching Wings!
This Taoism is created with the allusion of "the body has no colorful phoenix and two flying wings, but the heart has a clear understanding." By capturing the spirituality or energy to find the enemy, it can be cultivated into a supernatural power with other minds. Level, the follow-up to a third-level spell.

"I don't know if it's an evil theater artist this time." Jiang Han sighed softly. They have been searching for seven or eight days. The previous few times they found either human traffickers or women who simply died in the wild. , so that a group of people go away in high spirits, and return in good and bad.

Seeing that half a month has passed, I am afraid that this case has really become an unsolved case.

The three of them followed the kite, and came to a dilapidated village outside the county seat casually. The surrounding families seemed to have moved away long ago, and weeds were overgrown near the dark thatched huts.

The kite stopped in front of a small courtyard, Liu Zhaojun looked calm, pushed aside the fence and walked into the courtyard.

The people inside seemed to be aware of the arrival, and opened the wooden door with a "creak", and a middle-aged man with a dark and ugly face came out and shouted: "Who is here to visit."

The moment he saw this man, Wu Ming was touched spiritually, and he seemed to have known this aura before.
