I am a monster in both worlds

Chapter 98 Doesn’t look evil
In the north of Tanggu County, the sky is bright.

The sun shines on the street, people are scattered here and there, the shouts of vendors are endless, and the faint sound of storytellers in teahouses can be heard.

Yi Bai walked on the street.

The sun's rays should not make him feel uncomfortable, and there is no other effect except that he instinctively does not want to be exposed to this light.

'The merits are profound. '

Yi Bai thought to himself.

He knew that his merits must have deepened and the sunlight could no longer suppress him.

Idle fetishes are useless.

He strode towards where the old man said the Li family was.

While walking, he swallowed the second clay pill to extend the time of his transformation.

Otherwise, he could not guarantee that he would not alarm the city god here.

soon.

Yi Bai walked to the door of Li's house.

He looked up at Li Mansion and saw nothing but popularity.

"Is there really something evil at work?"

Yi Bai was surprised.

He is a demon. If there is a demon, will he not be able to spy on it?
He stepped forward, intending to take a closer look at the 'second son of the Li family'.

Yi Bai walked up to the black door of Li Mansion.

There was no movement on the two peach charms beside the door.

Taoist magic is 'invisible', avoiding peach charms.

Yi Bai is relieved.

dong dong dong.

He knocked lightly on the door.

Yi Bai took two steps back after knocking and waited for the door to open.

After half a sound.

The door creaked and was pushed open from the inside out.

A young man walked out.

"This is Li Mansion, who are you looking for?"

the boy asked.

"As commissioned by an old friend, I came here to eliminate demons from the Li Mansion. Please inform me."

Yi Bai stood still and spoke.

"Exterminate, eliminate the demon? Mr. You are blind, how can you eliminate the demon?"

The boy didn't believe it.

"Go and report."

Yi Bai didn't want to say more.

The young man muttered, not daring to neglect, and said "stay away", closed the door, and entered the house.

Yi Bai stood outside the door and glanced at the peach charms on both sides of the door.

I always felt that Taofu couldn't detect that he was a monster, but Taofu seemed confused and kept watching him.

But he used the Taoist technique of 'invisibility' to gather his energy. Unless he took the initiative to reveal himself, Taofu would not be able to see through him.

After a cup of tea.

The black door of Li Mansion was pushed open again.

Several young men walked out surrounded by an octogenarian woman.

The old woman looked at Yi Bai with cloudy eyes.

"Where are you from, sir? I don't remember inviting you."

The old woman said slowly.

"Come here as entrusted by an old friend."

Yi Bai lowered his body slightly so that the old woman could hear clearly.

"Old friend? Which old friend?"

The old woman didn't understand.

"Master Dao Chan!"

Yi Bai said the old monk's Dharma name.

"Tao, Tao Zen?"

The old woman was stunned for a moment, her eyes widened, and she wanted to say something, but she had nothing to say and fell silent.

Yi Bai's eyes were closed in the cloth, but he could still feel the subtle changes in the old woman's mood.

He had some guesses in his mind.

The old Zen monk may be related to this old woman.

But he didn’t know the specific story.

Yi Bai didn't know how to speak.

The old woman was silent for a long time, sighed, and said: "Since I have been entrusted by Tao Chan, I think you can solve the disaster for my Li family. Please, sir."

The old woman moved out of the way.

Yi Bai nodded and walked into Li Mansion.

When the host nodded in agreement, Taofu Door God's sense of prying eyes disappeared.

The old woman and the boys followed behind her.

"Sir, does he know about my Li family?"

The old woman walked with difficulty and asked as she walked.

"I heard from neighbors that the second son of the Li family fell off his horse and his personality changed drastically. But is this true?" Yi Bai slowed down and asked.

"That's right. Some gentlemen said that this is an evil spirit. However, there is no use in dealing with evil spirits. I see, my second son is a living person, not an evil spirit."

said the old woman.

Yi Bai did not answer.

I plan to take a closer look to see if it is evil.

Now that he knew it from other people's mouths, he couldn't tell the truth from the lie.

……

Li Mansion is a vast area with few people. After walking for a long time, walking around the courtyards, we finally reached a wing.

Peach charms were hung on the door of the wing, and the door was locked with an iron chain. The chain was contaminated with an unknown liquid and gave off a foul smell.

"Sir, my second son lives here."

The old woman was very respectful.

"Is this iron chain contaminated with dirt?"

Yi Bai looked at the iron chain on the door, feeling unhappy in his heart.

He probably knew that the iron chain was stained with filth, which made him feel unhappy.

Dirt wards off evil spirits.

The old man's usual trick to deal with evil spirits. When he was young, he had heard that painting the door with filth could drive away evil spirits.

Looking at it now, filth may make him feel unhappy, but it cannot make him retreat.

Yi Bai is not afraid of dirt, but his Taoist technique of 'invisibility' is afraid of dirt.

One of the flaws in Taoism's 'invisibility' is filth.

If he touches the iron chain, the evil spirit will not be concealed.

Yi Bai didn't want to get close.

"Sir, it is indeed filth."

the old woman replied.

"Please ask the old lady to send someone to take away the chains and clean the house before I can enter again."

Yi Bai said so.

"Wait a minute, sir."

The old woman turned around and ordered several young men to do as she was told.

After half a sound.

The front and the inside of the house are clear.

Only then did Yi Bai enter.

He walked into the house and saw a man in rich clothes lying on the bed with two or three ropes tied to him.

"let me go!!"

The man saw someone walking in and shouted loudly.

Yi Bai was stunned when he heard this, and waved his hand to tell the old woman not to come in. He strode to the bed and looked at the man.

The man stared at him angrily.

'It doesn't look like evil spirits. '

Yi Bai felt suspicious.

Why did the second son of the Li family change his temperament so much?

Yi Bai took two steps closer and opened his eyes.

He looked directly at the man through the cloth.

popularity.

Very pure popularity.

wrong.

Yi Bai opened his eyes wide, with a faint purple aura in his anger.

And the shallow purple energy is constantly being eroded by popularity.

Yi Bai has only seen purple energy eating away at people's popularity, which represents the state of death.

I have never seen such a scene before.

'This person's popularity seems to be composed of two completely different kinds of popularity, which is strange. '

Yi Bai was suspicious.

I'm afraid this person was dropped.

Yi Bai walked to the bed and asked, "Who are you from? Why did you steal this person's body?"

The 'Erlang of the Li family' on the bed immediately spoke: "I didn't steal. I am from Shanshan County. My surname is Shen and I have the single word Bin. I was pushed to the guillotine because I was killed by an adulterer. Fortunately, a righteous man helped me to escape." During the first catastrophe, I was worried that the officials would catch me, so after escaping, I kept running, hoping to bump into the second son of the Li family. Then I fainted, and when I woke up they all called me the second son of the Li family. I don’t know what happened.”

Hear this.

Yi Bai was stunned for a while.

He walked out of the room and asked the old woman.

Where is Shanshan County?

"Sir, Shanshan County is next to Tanggu County and belongs to Dongjie County. What's the problem?"

The old woman answered patiently.

"Let's go and check to see if there is a person named Shen Bin in Shanshan County. Let's focus on checking. Recently, I asked if there is anyone named Shen Bin who was killed."

Yi Bai spoke up and warned.

The old woman waved and asked the young man to go and inquire.

When Yi Bai saw this, he didn't say much. He waited for the news to come back and he would know everything.

He found a chair, swallowed the third clay pill without leaving a trace, and maintained his human form. He looked at the old woman. He had nothing to do, so he might as well inquire about the deeds of the old Taoist monk and the old woman...
