Chapter 40 The Mysterious Taoist

The man noticed that Chu Nanxing doubted him, and he was not angry.

He sighed and stroked his beard, "Look at you, you don't look like an ordinary person."

"You came here probably because of the incident you heard not long ago!"

Chu Nanxing didn't understand what the man was talking about, and looked blank.

The man didn't seem to need Chu Nanxing's answer, and continued, "In the past few years, the frequency of monsters appearing across the country has become more and more common than that of ordinary people."

"I always felt that someone was controlling all of this behind the scenes, so I followed the information I learned and started investigating."

"Not long ago, I found out that people in some places are actually experimenting with monsters and ordinary people, and synthesized a monster that can be seen by people but loses their minds."

When Chu Nanxing heard what the man said, his pupils dilated and his expression was shocked.

She lowered her head to hide the expression on her face so that the man would not notice.

She has not been able to confirm whether the man in front of her is credible.

After all, this is too coincidental.

Chu Nanxing didn't want to be stabbed in the back when he trusted others.

"So have you found anything in this village?"

The Taoist priest sighed and shook his head.

"I came a little late, so I didn't get any useful news!"

Chu Nanxing frowned, obviously not believing what the Taoist said.

She frowned and asked, "If you didn't see anything, then why did you know that this statue is not a statue of a god, but a sealed monster?"

The Taoist also noticed Chu Nanxing's suspicion, and was not angry.

He said helplessly, "That's because I did all these things."

"I don't have much ability, only the ability to seal objects and monsters is not bad."

"When I saw monsters all over the village, I didn't have the ability to eliminate them all, and I was worried that these monsters were forcibly transformed into such a look, so I didn't dare to do it, so I used the means of sealing."

"This seal can last for a month in the sun. I plan to find someone who can solve this problem during this month. I didn't expect that before I had time to leave, I felt that someone had moved the seal and rushed back."

What the Taoist said was logical and self-consistent, so Chu Nanxing wasn't too suspicious.

She raised her eyebrows and asked, "If you don't find someone who can solve this problem, how do you plan to deal with these monsters you have sealed?"

There is currently no way to confirm whether these monsters can be recovered. To be on the safe side, all of these monsters must be eliminated.

But thinking of his sister who was left in the special affairs office by him, Chu Nanxing hesitated for a moment.

The Taoist priest's eyes wandered over the seals, but he didn't notice Chu Nanxing's emotional abnormality.

He sighed helplessly and said, "If there is really no other way, I can only burn these seals with fire before these monsters break through the seals."

"Then they will disappear with the burnt seal."

Hearing the Taoist's words, Chu Nanxing was a little surprised.

It was the first time she had heard of such a method.

"No need to go to so much trouble, you can unlock a few of the seals and I'll take care of it!"

Chu Nanxing's words surprised the Taoist priest.

He looked at Chu Nanxing blankly, unable to react for a moment.

"You... you have thin arms and legs, can you handle it?"

Looking at the Taoist priest's suspicious eyes, Chu Nanxing was speechless.

How long has it been since you judged a book by its appearance?

"If you try it, you will know if I can handle it!"

The Taoist priest hesitated.

It has been more than ten days since the seal was set, and now there is not much time for him to find other people.

He frowned, struggled for a while, and then agreed to Chu Nanxing's proposal.

He took down a smaller monster and estimated that the monster's combat power was not particularly strong, so he unlocked the seal.

As soon as the seal was lifted, a monster as tall as a normal human appeared.

The monster hunched its back, and its hands became very long, propped on the ground like a crutch.

As soon as it resumed action, the monster ran away like crazy, desperately running to the side.

He seemed to be keenly aware that if he continued to stay here, he would lose his life.

But Chu Nanxing and the others didn't want to give him a chance to escape when they released him.

The moment the monster turned around, Chu Nanxing's spiritual knife had already touched him.

Before the monster's feet even left the ground, they disappeared without a sound.

The Taoist priest was still worried at first, but after Chu Nanxing showed such a trick, those worries in his heart immediately disappeared.

"I didn't expect you to be so powerful at such a young age. I used to judge people by their appearance."

"It seems that with your ability, the monsters here should be a piece of cake!"

Chu Nanxing just showed off her abilities. She didn't intend to destroy all the monsters here.

After hearing what he said, she smiled and said, "I have something to trouble senior."

Her attitude was very humble, which made the Taoist feel respected, so she couldn't help but smile a little when she spoke.

"Let's hear it, as long as I can do it, I won't refuse."

When Chu Nanxing heard what the Taoist said, he immediately said, "I would like to trouble seniors to send these sealed monsters to the headquarters of the Special Affairs Department."

"Many of these monsters may be the kind of existence that the predecessors said before. If possible, maybe they can return to normal!"

Chu Nanxing's words made the Taoist's eyes widen.

He obviously didn't expect that what Chu Nanxing wanted him to do was actually this.

"Are you serious?"

"You have to know that monsters are uncontrollable, and they will actively absorb grievances. If such monsters mix together, no one knows what will happen."

Chu Nanxing understood the Taoist's worries.

She smiled and said, "There are people out there who know how to trap these monsters."

"And I believe in senior's ability, I will never give these monsters a chance to escape at will, won't I?"

"If the experiment I mentioned succeeds, many innocent people who were transformed into monsters will also have a chance to recover. This is a great meritorious thing!"

Chu Nanxing's words were very touching.

The Taoist priest was not very determined, but now he was completely persuaded by Chu Nanxing.

He no longer hesitated, nodded directly, and said seriously, "Little friend is right!"

"I really should give them another chance!"

"I agreed to the proposal that Xiaoyou said. I don't know where the headquarters of the Special Affairs Department is? For the sake of safety, can Xiaoyou accompany me on the trip and escort me to my destination?"
