Chapter 40 Evil Spirits
At night, Suti stayed in the room alone.

Analyzing the entire incident of my cousin’s kidnapping in my mind.

He handled the ending of this matter very well. There were no cameras or anything like that along the way, and he got off the car early, so there was no way they would find anything on him.

Moreover, after this incident, Su Zihao's family will surely be more careful. Given their wealth level, they will definitely have ways to fight back or protect themselves.

Even if not, this attack alarmed the police, and the other party would not dare to come a second time in a short time. Therefore, Su Ti was not particularly worried about the safety of Su Zihao's family for the time being.

But there was one thing that still concerned him, and that was the matter of the spiny worm.

Su Ti was full of doubts.

"What on earth could allow a normal person to have such a level of immortality, and even provide me with energy after being killed?"

"Currently, the only thing known to provide me with energy is a cursed antique that is dug out from a pile of dead bodies. This strange creature can provide me with energy, so what is the commonality between this thing and the cursed antique?"

Su Ti thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so he turned on his phone and called Long Yuanzheng.

Long Yuanzheng is a person from the ancient martial arts world and is knowledgeable. He should know the origin of this vertebrate worm.

Long Yuanzheng's call was quickly connected.

Su Ti thought about it for a while, then he told the other party what happened today with a little modification.

He slightly modified the course of events, and the incident remained the same from beginning to end, except that the strength of these two people had become the second level of internal training.

After hearing this, Long Yuanzheng frowned.

"Martial artists from outside the area? These two actually dared to kidnap your family. Humph, just beat them to death. If there is trouble later, Master will solve it for you."

Long Yuanzheng had gotten used to Su Ti's murderous nature. Besides, if Su Ti didn't kill Long Yuanzheng when encountering such a thing, he would look down on him and think he was a heartless person.

If you don't even dare to kill someone when your family is in trouble, what kind of martial arts are you practicing?
"Master, I have erased all traces very well. They shouldn't be able to find me."

Su Ti said this not because he was afraid that someone would come looking for him, but he simply felt that he had not left any traces behind, so no one would come looking for him.

Long Yuanzheng said: "It's hard to say. You have just entered the ancient martial arts world and you don't know the rules of this industry. Either they won't come looking for you, but if the forces behind the two warriors you killed really come looking for you, they will definitely find you in person."

Su Ti was a little confused, and Long Yuanzheng explained.

"It's a fighting method. You killed them using the Golden Python Four Styles Fighting Method, right?"

Su Ti's pupils shrank and he understood instantly.

"The detectives in the outer world can't use this to find people, but the ancient martial arts sects in the inner world can find out by asking around. The only way that can cause such injuries is our Longmen's fighting style."

"But it doesn't matter. It would be fine if the forces behind them don't come. But if they do, I will have to hold them accountable and give you an explanation."

Su Ti felt warm in his heart when he heard this.

"Master."

"Well, let's not talk about the forces behind those two people. The spinal worm you mentioned, Suti, is quite rare even in the other world. Even I have only heard rumors about it and have never actually seen one."

"What the hell is that?"

Suti asked curiously.

Long Yuanzheng's tone turned serious.

"It's evil."

"Evil?"

"Yes, I heard your uncle talk about this a long time ago. There are some ghosts and monsters in this world that cause trouble, and these things are collectively called evil spirits."

"But most of these evil spirits have fixed territories, all of which are located in deep mountains and old forests far away from human traffic. Ordinary people rarely see one in their lifetime. At least I have never seen one."

Su Ti felt something was wrong when he heard this and reminded them.

"But that person seems to have practiced ancient martial arts, and there seems to be some ancient martial arts organization behind him."

Hearing this, Long Yuanzheng replied.

"That is an evil sect that uses evil spirits to practice martial arts. They have assimilated with the evil spirits, and are half human and half evil. They use the flesh and blood of living people as bait to practice martial arts, and are not tolerated by society."

"But I have only heard of this kind of sect. At least as far as I know, there is no such sect in our Nanjiang Province."

"But don't worry too much. The evil sects are not tolerated by society. They hide here and there like rats and are selfish. It's unlikely that they will seek revenge on you for a dead person. On the contrary, the righteous sect may send someone to you. If they come to you, tell me. Don't solve it by yourself."

After Long Yuanzheng gave some instructions, Su Ti hung up the phone.

He sat on the bed and thought for a moment.

"Evil?"

It seems that this world is hiding another side that he doesn't know about, and that side is even hidden deeper than the ancient martial arts world. Even an old man in the ancient martial arts world like Long Yuanzheng knows little about it.

He originally wanted to find out where he could encounter this evil spirit, so that he could have a source of energy, but Long Yuanzheng didn't know where it was.
At this moment, Su Ti was stunned.

He thought again of the tomb-robbing gang he encountered during the day.

Old Xu told him about ghosts and monsters, and Long Yuanzheng said that evil spirits are ghosts that cause trouble, so is it possible that these two are the same thing?
Thinking of this, he picked up his phone and called Mr. Xu.

The call was quickly connected, and Mr. Xu's voice came from the other end.

"How is it? Has your Excellency changed his mind?"

"No, I want to ask you about ghosts. I seem to have encountered something similar."

"Well, you said."

Su Ti described to Mr. Xu what happened after the vertebrate worm possessed and left his body.

After hearing this, Mr. Xu thought for a moment and replied.

"If I'm not mistaken, the thing you touched should be a corpse puppet worm."

"Corpse puppet worm?"

"Yes, this is a kind of evil spirit that was born underground. It was originally an ordinary insect, but because it absorbed Yin energy for a long time, it gradually turned into an evil spirit."

"This kind of insect can parasitize corpses and manipulate them, so it is called a corpse puppet insect."

"But it's not impossible for it to parasitize living people. After being parasitized, living people will gradually lose their sense of pain and become fond of eating human blood and flesh. At the same time, they will also lose all their vital parts. Even if they lose their heads and brains, they can still continue to fight under the control of the corpse puppet worm."

"It is said that the evil sects in some provinces use these corpse puppet insects to practice martial arts and turn themselves into immortal bodies with no weaknesses."

What Mr. Xu said exactly matched what Su Ti saw!

Moreover, compared to Long Yuanzheng, Old Xu obviously knew more and in more detail, even knowing the specific names of evil spirits! Su Ti secretly thought that he was indeed a tomb robber, he had seen a lot of evil spirits, and he had his own specialties.

"I see. I wonder if Mr. Xu can tell me more about the evil spirits."

Evil spirits and cursed antiques can both increase Suti's energy, so Suti is naturally very interested in them.

Old Xu laughed.

"In fact, your knowledge of this aspect is useless, because it is very difficult for normal people to encounter evil spirits. These things are born in the Yin meridians. Even if you know of their existence, it is like listening to a story. You will never see their true selves."

Long Yuanzheng also said this. Evil spirits are in the deep mountains and old forests, far away from human habitation, and ordinary people rarely see them in their lifetime.

After hearing this, Suti fell into deep thought and asked after a while.

"Then will you encounter evil spirits in the tomb you are going to rob next?"

"There is a high probability." Old Xu said seriously. He had said this to Su Ti at the beginning and now added to it.

"Because the tomb is built on a Yin meridian, tombs built on Yin meridians are usually more likely to have evil spirits. Although we haven't been there to see it, we've already prepared ourselves for the possibility of encountering evil spirits."

That tomb is too dangerous, even with Old Xu's strength, he doesn't dare to set foot in it easily. This is the reason why he invited Su Ti before.

If you go there without sufficient strength, you will be seeking death.

After hearing this, Su Ti thought for a moment and replied.

"In that case, I'll go with you guys."

Mr. Xu was overjoyed when he heard this.

"real!"

Suti responded.

"But I have one condition. The profit sharing is still as you said before, 30% is fine, but if there is any harvest, I will take the initiative to choose it, and if there is a premium, I will make up the money for you."

"No problem, no problem, I'll do as you say!"

Old Xu had seen Suti's integrity before. He was able to trade fairly even when he could rob others. With a partner like him, there was no need to worry about him being tempted by money!
This is also the reason why Old Xu invited Su Ti. Having military force alone is not enough. You know, they can use money to invite warriors with better martial arts skills. However, the place where Old Xu is going is rarely visited and there are no laws. Once there is a huge gain, the stronger the warriors they invite, the more dangerous they will be!

He has encountered too many partners who have engaged in scheming against each other for huge profits, so his subordinates are all trustworthy people, and he dare not keep those he does not trust around him!

"Well, since I have decided to join, you don't need to call me Your Excellency anymore. Just call me Su Xiu."

To be cautious, Suti did not give his real name but used a pseudonym.

"Okay, okay, I'll do as you say, Brother Su Xiu. I'll set out at 8 a.m. the day after tomorrow. We'll meet at the same place where we did the transaction today. See you there."

At the time agreed with Mr. Xu, Su Ti hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

The so-called money and silk move people's hearts.

Originally, Suti had no interest in tomb robbing or exploration, but after learning that the evil spirits could provide him with energy, he suddenly became very interested in this adventure.

Because tomb robbing not only allows one to obtain cursed antiques, but also creates the possibility of encountering evil spirits, it is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone, so Suti is naturally willing to take the risk.

The next morning the detective came to the door.

They came here regarding the kidnapping of Su Qiaoqiao and Su Yuwei yesterday.

After investigation, it was found that after the two were kidnapped, a mysterious man drove Su Yuwei's car and tracked them all the way, caught up with and killed the two kidnappers, and called the police to rescue the hostages.

Although the hostages were successfully rescued and the kidnappers were punished, this was not a punishment imposed by law. Although the mysterious man's behavior was just, he is still suspected of intentional homicide and needs to be found and brought back for investigation.

Although there was no surveillance during the kidnapping, the only witness, Mr. Li, died, the dashcam was removed, and there were no fingerprints or other traces at the scene,
As the last witness to leave, Suti is highly suspicious.

It is very likely that Su Ti was the mysterious man who drove Su Yuwei's car, caught up with and killed the kidnappers, and rescued the two women from them.

Therefore, it was no surprise that Suti was taken to the detective bureau for questioning and taking a statement.

Su's father and mother also went there with a look of surprise on their faces. It was not until they met Su Zihao and his daughter who were taking statements in the police detective bureau that they learned about the kidnapping of Su Yuwei and Su Qiaoqiao and were shocked.

After Su Ti finished taking the statement, he pretended to be confused.

"I had no idea this kind of thing happened. I got off the car and left. I didn't even know you were kidnapped. But luckily you two are okay."

He had an expression of extreme shock and regret, but also a bit of relief that no one in the Su family had discovered any flaws.

"You are so careless. I asked you to send Qiaoqiao and your cousin off, but they were kidnapped right in front of you and you didn't even know it!"

Su's mother pointed at Su Ti's head with her finger and said, "Iron cannot be made of steel."

Su Zihao on the side immediately came out to smooth things over.

"Hey, sister-in-law, don't say that. Suti had already left at that time and didn't see it. It's not his fault."

He knew very well that if that mysterious man had not appeared to rescue his two daughters, even if Suti saw this scene and called the police, it would not have had any impact in the end, and might even make things worse.

Therefore, Su Zihao did not blame Su Ti at all.

As for the possibility that Su Ti might be the mysterious person who saved his two daughters, Su Zihao had never thought about it.

If Su Ti had this ability, why was he kidnapped by underground black boxing some time ago?

Su Qiaoqiao and Su Yuwei, who knew that he might have some skills, were skeptical. But again, even Master Li, a martial artist in the Tongli period, was beaten to death. If Su Ti had this ability, why was he kidnapped some time ago?

After seeing Sutich's genuine confusion and shock, the two girls put aside their doubts.

After taking the statements, the detective still couldn't find out anything, and finally sent Suti and others back home.

Such a big thing happened. Although the mastermind behind the scene, Su Luo, had been arrested, Su Zihao, who was frightened, still applied for secret protection from the police on the grounds of fear of retaliation, and he also paid for several bodyguards to watch over his two daughters.
Let’s not talk about Su Zihao’s situation.

On the morning of the third day after the kidnapping, at an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city.

"Let me introduce you. This is Cao Man, my goddaughter."

Old Xu introduced with a smile.

Cao Man is the woman with a steel whip hanging around her waist. She is about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, wearing a camouflage military uniform, a ponytail, and no makeup. She has a pretty face and looks very capable.

"Hello."

"Just call me Su Xiu. Please take care of me from now on.

Cao Man nodded. She was obviously not good at speaking, so she stepped back.
