A murder happened again, and the group of people had no clue.

At this time, Nan Fubo said:

"Let's go find someone, he must know the clues."

Bai Yu asked curiously:

"Who is it? Could there be other monks here?"

Nan Fubo said: "The city god of the prefecture!"

"City God?"

Nan Fubo explained:

"My junior uncle grew up in Dali, and he may not be very clear about the affairs of Songming Kingdom."

"There is a way of incense and fire here, and the gods of incense and fire are most sensitive to what happens within their own territory."

Bai Yu suddenly realized.

The way of incense and fire is something that has never existed in Dali Kingdom.

Just like Uncle Jiu, although he is supported by the people, he cannot really become a god.

As they were talking, the group arrived at the City God Temple.

The City God Temple is not big and looks a bit dilapidated.

But early in the morning, many people came here to burn incense and pray.

Everyone entered the inner courtyard and saw a statue of the City God as tall as a person.

This City God was dressed in iron armor and had a bow and arrow on his waist, but he was dressed like a military general.

Nan Fubo took out a Five Thunder Order and chanted a spell.

"Little Lei Guan Nan Fubo, summon the City God of Xizhou City."

Strangely enough, the statue in front of him emitted bursts of light.

A faint figure walked out of the statue.

"Little God Xizhou City City God Yan Xiong, meet several immortals."

Bai Yu was very interested. This Xizhou City God looked like a soul body, which was not much different from a ghost.

Perhaps a special ghost cultivator?

Judging from the aura on his body, his strength may be around the late stage of Qi Refining.

However, the cloud of luck above his head was red, which should be the strength of foundation building.

Nan Fubo said:

"General Yan, I told you yesterday to secretly monitor the movements in the city."

"A murder really happened last night. Do you have any news?"

City God Yan Xiong looked embarrassed and said:

"To answer the immortals, I didn't rest all night last night, but I really didn't find any clues."

"These monsters are really tricky, otherwise I wouldn't have asked the immortals to come."

Nan Fubo's face froze.

He never thought that he had laid two back-up plans last night, but none of them worked.

Even the City God didn't find any trace of the murderer.

On the other hand, Bai Yu, who was standing aside, looked at the somewhat gray statue and thought about something.

Perhaps the City God didn't want Bai Yu and others to find the enemy.

In his previous life, there was a saying in his hometown:

"Gods are useless without ghosts."

This sentence has two meanings.

First, the righteous gods also need to gather mountain spirits and ghosts as their soldiers, so that it is convenient to do things and everything will be effective.

The second meaning is that if there are no ghosts and monsters making trouble, the people will not worship the gods every day.

If the gods are not popular, they will not work.

For the City God of Xizhou City, the strange things that happened in Xizhou made his incense more popular.

Bai Yu stepped forward and said lightly:

"As the City God, you are supported by all directions, but you can't protect the people."

"Even so many caesarean sections have happened in recent days, and you don't even have a clue?"

"I will go back to Jindu City tomorrow and explain this to King Songming."

He showed the green jade certificate of the third-class auxiliary state true monarch.

Since the City God follows the way of gods, he must collect incense and faith.

This is the weakness.

Once the king declares that he is an obscene worshiper, it will have a devastating impact on the City God.

Of course, Bai Yu and King Song Ming were not familiar with each other.

But it was still possible to use it to trick people.

"General Yan, think carefully, has there been anything unusual in the city these days?"

City God Yan Xiong pondered:

"Report to the immortals, my strength is low, and I really don't know the clues of the thieves."

"But if you have to say it's unusual, there is a dilapidated temple on the Wolf Head Mountain outside the south city. It seems a bit strange. I have felt a dangerous atmosphere in it several times."

Sure enough, after being tricked by Bai Yu, the city god told the truth.

After hearing this, everyone rushed to the dilapidated temple in the south of the city.

As soon as he approached the dilapidated temple, Bai Yu felt a cold breath, exactly the same as the bloody breath he felt from the deceased Zhao Xiaoni.

Above the dilapidated temple, there was a faint black air entangled.

The four looked at each other and felt the unusualness in the dilapidated temple.

Nan Fubo gave an order and ordered eight Qi-refining iron guards to hold formation flags and set up a large formation to surround the ruined temple.

Master Fa'an released several bronze arhats and manipulated them to attack the ruined temple first.

A group of bats flew out of the ruined temple.

Everyone jumped into the ruined temple, but found that it was already empty.

After searching for a while, they found a secret room.

In the secret room, there was a pool of blood.Full of smelly blood.

Near the inside, there is a statue with three heads and eight arms.

However, the body of the statue is covered with cinnabar-painted talismans, and the eight arms are wrapped with chains.

And the three heads are also covered with talismans, covering the eyes of the statue.

Nan Fubo said:

"It seems to be a demon cultivator. Only demon cultivators will worship this kind of demon statue."

"They want to use the power of the demon, but don't want to be infected by the demon, so they use talismans to seal the demon statue."

Bai Yu nodded slightly.

He had heard that the path of demon cultivation is like walking on the edge of a knife.

Because demons and demonic energy represent chaos and madness.

If a demon cultivator is not careful, his temperament will change drastically, and even his intelligence will drop drastically, turning into a madman who only knows how to kill.

Bai Yu stepped forward, wiped a little incense ash from the altar and smelled it.

"The incense ash still has the scent of sandalwood, at least it was burned within a day."

Nan Fubo said:

"Uncle Junior, do you mean that the demon cultivators left not long ago?"

Bai Yu nodded:

"Yes, within a day, or even before and after."

"So much so that they didn't even have time to take the demon statue away."

The crowd searched the area near the mountain again, but still found nothing.

This group of demon cultivators seemed to have disappeared directly, without leaving any trace.

The crowd had no choice but to destroy the ruined temple and go back home.

Halfway through, Bai Yu's brain was working fast, and he had a question in his mind.

How did the demon cultivators know that they would go to Wolf Head Mountain?

Moreover, how did they avoid the search of Jinglong Ding, sometimes in the east and sometimes in the west?

Is there a traitor?

Or have they been monitored from the beginning?

Thinking of this, Bai Yu had an idea in his mind.

When he returned to his base, he suddenly said:

"I am so tired today. I will not go with you tomorrow. I will go alone. If you find the demon cultivator, please inform me."

Nan Fubo and others looked at each other in surprise.

After only two days of investigation, Bai Yu is going to give up?

However, they did not dare to object.

In terms of seniority, Bai Yu is Nan Fubo's uncle, so Nan Fubo could not speak up.

As for Master Yin and Master Fa'an, it was even more difficult to say anything.

They are disciples of Leiyang Shangzong, so they are naturally superior.

Nan Fubo could not object, so he said:

"Then let Ding San run errands with Uncle Master. Uncle Master can tell him if there is anything."

He thought to himself that maybe Uncle Master wanted to search alone.

The next day, Bai Yu went out early in the morning.

Nan Fubo nodded secretly. It seems that the young uncle still wants to do serious work.

In the morning, Nan Fubo and others led the soldiers to search every house.

At this time, Ding San sent back the news:

"Brother Nan, Senior Bai went to the brothel."
