polar demon

Chapter 48

The remaining ghosts were easily eliminated by Jiang Yuan.

Finally, Jiang Yuan woke up the middle-aged man who had fainted from fright:

"Hey! Time to go!"

After the middle-aged man woke up, he was so frightened that he kept away from Jiang Yuan:
"You! What kind of monster are you?!"

"Monster your head!" Jiang Yuan slapped the middle-aged man to wake him up, "I am a Yangcheng arrester who fights against violence and saves people with righteousness. Come with me!"

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yuan picked up the middle-aged man and returned to the same way as if he was holding a chicken.

The sky in the east has turned pale, and the dim light has brightened the surroundings.

Jiang Yuan returned to the bushes, and the ugly woman was still standing there with her pipa in her arms.

When passing by the woman, Jiang Yuan couldn't help asking:
"The sun is coming out, don't you hide?"

The woman shook her head:

"Everyone is gone, I should be gone too, we should be gone long ago"

Jiang Yuan glanced at her, then continued to lead the middle-aged man forward.

Among the ghosts, besides Sun Xiaohe, this woman is the second one he has ever seen.

There are exceptions to everything, and among ghosts, they are also a rare exception.

Jiang Yuan has harvested enough ghost energy tonight, and there is no shortage of this strand, so Jiang Yuan doesn't care about her.

As he gradually moved away from the woman, the calm middle-aged man couldn't help asking:
"Who is she?"

Jiang Yuan opened his mouth and answered:
"She is the benefactor who saved your son. She is the benefactor."

"Ghost?!" The middle-aged man was startled.

In the end, the middle-aged man couldn't help turning his head to look at the woman.

The woman was still standing there silently, as if waiting calmly.

The morning sun peeked out from the top of the hill, piercing the morning mist with golden rays, and sprinkled all over the weedy wilderness.

The woman raised her head and looked at the rising sun.

The warm sunshine sprinkled all over her body, and wisps of green smoke rose from her body.

Under the horrified eyes of the middle-aged man, the woman was fragmented bit by bit and disappeared.

The wilderness is full of vitality in the early morning, and the thick weeds are woven like a green carpet. Who would have thought that after nightfall, this place would be a frightening place.

The two walked through the wilderness and continued towards the manor.

The sun is rising higher and higher, and the wind is warm, dispelling the cold and making people feel warm all over.

On the way, the middle-aged man kept asking how his wife and children were doing.

Jiang Yuan is too lazy to say more.

The morning breeze brought the fragrance of tea trees, a gentle slope appeared in the line of sight of the two, and further away was the green tea mountain.

The manor is not far away, just behind the gentle slope.

When the two walked up the gentle slope, they saw the manor down the slope and the people who had already been waiting outside the manor.

With the gentle breeze, the flowers and plants on the slope and the middle-aged man's hair and beard swayed with it.

A group of young and strong workers working in the tea house suddenly burst into cheers.

Seeing this scene, Boss Cai couldn't help but said with joy and annoyance:
"These mud legs really succeeded! They dared to threaten me last night, and I must deduct their wages! But as long as people are fine, as long as they are fine."

The middle-aged man looked at his wife and daughter walking out of the crowd, covered his face and wept hard, but his slightly hunched body felt capable of taking any responsibility.

Jiang Yuan and the middle-aged man walked down the gentle slope.

The woman rushed forward with the little boy in her arms, and the middle-aged man held them quietly in his arms.

The couple blamed each other again, and at the same time poured out their worries to each other.

Although the boy who was hugged by the couple didn't know much about it, he cried when he saw his parents crying.

Jiang Yuan also showed a rare smile.

This feeling is actually good.
The elegant and handsome Lu Junsheng walked up to Jiang Yuan:

"If the ghost handprint on Xiaolong's body disappeared, I knew Brother Jiang had succeeded. Everyone has softness in their hearts, and the true feelings are even more touching. Take virtue as a teacher and live up to this life"

Jiang Yuan looked at Lu Junsheng and shook his head:
"It's really sad that morality is so binding on people."

Lu Junsheng is willing to use the precious amethyst orchid as the price to save irrelevant ordinary people, which is really worthless in Jiang Yuan's view.

"It should be gratifying!" Lu Junsheng said with a smile, "The gratifying thing is that morality can still bind people."

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Yangcheng, night patrol guard government office.

After a busy night, Xia Mingxuan finally came out of the study.

The bright sun shone on his body, but tiredness began to flood his body.

A night guard guarding outside the study stepped forward and said:

"Lord Captain, Master Zhou asked for an audience last night, and has been waiting in the side room for a long time."

Xia Mingxuan was puzzled when he heard this:
"Zhou Cunjian? Why did he come to see me? Why didn't you report to the county captain immediately?"

The night watchman hastily replied:

"Master Zhou said that there is no need to report in a hurry, and you will see him after you are done."

Xia Mingxuan waved his hand:
"Got it, I'm going to see him right now."

The side room was not willing to be far from the study, so Xia Mingxuan quickly came outside the room.

It's just that the door is closed, leaving only a gap.

Xia Mingxuan pushed open the door, only to see that all the windows in the room were closed tightly, blocking the sunlight and making the room dark and gloomy.

"Master Zhou?"

Xia Mingxuan walked into the room and shouted.

After waiting for a while, no one answered.

Xia Mingxuan shook his head, did Zhou Cunjian leave?
Just when he was about to leave, a faint voice suddenly sounded from behind the screen:
"Master Xia"

Xia Mingxuan asked suspiciously:

"Master Zhou, don't you need to find me, what are you doing behind the screen?"

Zhou Cunjian's voice continued to come from behind the screen:

"Master Xia, close the door quickly, I have something confidential to tell you."

Xia Mingxuan frowned, but still closed the door and bolted it.

With the door closed, the room became darker and darker, even in the daytime, it gave people a cold feeling.

"Master Zhou, just speak up if you have anything to say." Xia Mingxuan became impatient.

Zhou Cunjian's voice still sounded behind the screen:

"Master Xia, come here, I only tell you this matter, come here quickly!"

Xia Mingxuan suppressed his impatience and walked behind the screen.

The corner behind the screen was even darker. I saw Zhou Cunjian squatting in the darkness, holding his knees and hanging his head like a child.

"Master Zhou," Xia Mingxuan asked, "Are you alright?"

Zhou Cunjian remained silent, still squatting on the spot.

Xia Mingxuan began to feel angry, did Zhou Cunjian play tricks on himself?

He stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhou Cunjian's shoulder.

Seeing that his hand was about to touch Zhou Cunjian's body, Xia Mingxuan suddenly stopped.

Then, he suddenly withdrew his hand, quickly took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, and sprinkled the liquid inside towards Zhou Cunjian.

"Spirit blood!"

Zhou Cunjian's speed was even faster, he jumped up from the ground suddenly, as agile as an ape.

The spiritual blood was scattered, Xia Mingxuan kicked over the screen, and took out another bottle of spiritual blood. At the same time, he drew out his waist knife and vigilantly looked for Zhou Cunjian in the dark room.

"Hey hey hey hey"

A strange laugh suddenly sounded above his head.

Xia Mingxuan raised his head, and saw Zhou Cunjian grasping the beam with both hands and feet, twisting his head to the back, looking down at Xia Mingxuan on the ground with a sinister smile on his face.

At this time, Zhou Cunjian did not look like the mighty county captain before. His mouth was open, mucus dripped from it, and his face was full of evil and bewitching.

Xia Mingxuan turned pale with shock, and hurriedly wanted to spill his spiritual blood again.

However, at this time, Zhou Cunjian jumped down from the beam of the house and rushed towards Xia Mingxuan who was directly below.

Xia Mingxuan's movements were already fast, but compared to Zhou Cunjian who was extremely agile, he was still a bit slower.

As a gust of wind hit his face, Xia Mingxuan was pushed to the ground, and he thought to himself: It's over!
"Bah!"

When the room could not be opened, the door was kicked open from the outside.

Strong sunlight poured into the house from the outside in an instant.

Zhou Cunjian, who had just pressed Xia Mingxuan, was shone by the sun, screaming in pain, and white smoke rose from his body.

An old man with an extraordinary bearing stepped in from outside the house, it was Fei Qingquan, the Star Warden:
"Where is the ghost? How dare you make trouble in my night patrol office!"

Zhou Cunjian didn't care about Xia Mingxuan, and quickly ran to a dark corner of the room to avoid the sunlight.

Only then did Xia Mingxuan get up from the ground triumphantly, and he retreated to Fei Qingquan with the porcelain bottle in his hand, staring at Zhou Cunjian in the corner vigilantly:
"He was hooked."

Anger flashed in Fei Qingquan's eyes:

"How many years have passed, no ghosts have dared to cause trouble in Yangcheng, where did you come from?"

Zhou Cunjian in the corner slowly climbed up the vertical wall, turned his head around, pointed at Fei Qingquan and said:
"Fei Qingquan, quickly prepare the living souls in Yangcheng, and my master will come to pick them up soon."

Fei Qingquan stepped forward and asked sharply:
"Who is your master?"

Zhou Cunjian stared at Fei Qingquan and laughed madly:
"Hey hey hey hey hey. My master is called Yingxiao, and we are old friends with your Fei family!"

When Fei Qingquan heard this name, his expression changed dramatically.

Ying Xiao is one of the five leading evil spirits of the Five Ghosts.Such a powerful demon really wants to come to Yangcheng.
Zhou Cunjian slowly crawled along the window lattice:

"Hey hey hey hey! You are scared! I can feel that you are so scared! Hahahahaha."

Fei Qingquan became angry from embarrassment:
"court death!"

With a movement of his figure, he had agility that didn't match his old appearance, and he came to Zhou Cunjian's side in an instant.

Fei Qingquan stretched out his arm, spread his five fingers, and stabbed into Zhou Cunjian's back.

The power of inheritance in the blood surged wildly, and the veins on his arms burst out. In just a short moment, Zhou Cunjian's whole body exploded with a "boom!".

In the blood mist, a wisp of black ghost energy writhed like a black snake.

It felt the flesh and blood of a living person, and flew towards Xia Mingxuan instantly.

Fei Qingquan snorted coldly, and slammed the window beside him into pieces.

The sunlight from outside the house shrouded the ghost aura inside, and the ghost aura writhed wildly like a wounded bug.

In just an instant, the ghostly aura dissipated in the sunlight.

Xia Mingxuan breathed a sigh of relief for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and stepped forward to thank Fei Qingquan:
"Thank you for your help, my lord."

Fei Qingquan's expression was still ugly:
"Immediately let all the night patrols, yamen servants, and defenders shrink back into the city, and at the same time conduct a strict investigation in the city to sweep away the hiding ghosts!"

"Subordinates obey!" Xia Mingxuan said, "The five ghosts are really coming—"

"Shut up!" Fei Qingquan interrupted, "The superior ordered the bronze coffin to be strictly guarded, and I will defend it with all my might, and we must not let it fall into the hands of evil spirits!"

Xia Mingxuan wanted to say something more, but hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't say it.
