Seven-star Sword Master

"I'll go."

Just as everyone was thinking about it, a voice was heard.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and discovered that the owner of the voice was a third-level patrol guard with an extraordinary background.

Lu Feipeng stood up slowly, and Zhou Yiming, who was beside him, looked a little uneasy after hearing Lu Feipeng's statement, because he was similar to Lu Feipeng, both of them had joined the Inspection Department in the past two days and were pure newcomers.

Perhaps sensing Zhou Yiming's slightly embarrassed state, Lu Feipeng turned around and smiled at him:

"Don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything. You just need to follow my lead."

"But I..."

Before Zhou Yiming could finish his words, Lu Feipeng reached out to stop him. He showed the three circles on his left arm and said:

"Mo Huang, even if you don't believe me, don't you believe the three rings on my arm?"

As soon as these words came out, it seemed to give Zhou Yiming great confidence. Zhou Yiming looked at Lu Feipeng with a firm face and nodded:

"Well, I believe you, Brother Lu."

"In this case, let's go without further delay, Captain Ding."

After comforting Zhou Yiming, Lu Feipeng urged Ding Zhichang.

"Okay, both adults, follow me."

Under the guidance of Ding Zhichang, Lu Feipeng and Zhou Yiming followed him all the way out of the inner city and came to the outer city area in the south of the city. Behind them were seven or eight yamen runners.

"My Lord, here we are."

Arriving in front of a slightly dilapidated courtyard, Ding Zhichang stepped aside and revealed the gate of the courtyard in front of him for Lu Feipeng and the others to see.

The gate was open at this time, and two yamen runners were standing guard on the left and right of the gate. A group of people gathered around to watch the excitement, and they would point their hands inside from time to time.

Through the open door, one can clearly see the main hall inside, and next to the dining table in the main hall, there are several figures lying on the ground.

Seeing this, he glanced at the streets surrounded by people. Lu Feipeng couldn't help but frown, and a big "川" character was formed between his eyebrows. Then he looked at Ding Zhichang with dissatisfaction.

He was extremely dissatisfied with Ding Zhichang's approach and thought:

"Is this how Ding Zhichang does things? He is the head of Ningtai Township.

Even he, a newcomer to the Inspection Department, knew to avoid suspicion. How could he, a captain who has been in the job for who knows how many years, not know?

When I return, I must carefully understand the procedures of Ningtai Township. "

Ding Zhichang also seemed to realize that Lu Feipeng was somewhat dissatisfied with him, which made him completely confused.

"What's going on?"

He was fine when he came, why did he suddenly change his attitude?

"boom!"

While Ding Zhichang was still wondering, Lu Feipeng and Zhou Yiming had already walked into the yard, followed by the sound of a heavy door closing.

"Oh, so that's how it is!"

Hearing the sound of the door closing, combined with Lu Feipeng's previous behavior of looking around, he immediately understood why Lu Feipeng was dissatisfied with him.

"sweat!"

Ding Zhichang was sweating slightly, which was also caused by his negligence.

He had already gotten to know the other patrol guards well, so he no longer cared about these small details.

However, he still looked at the two men he had left behind to guard the scene with dissatisfaction, and snorted:

"Humph, you two just stand here and don't know how to close the door, right?"

Sure enough, after shouting out his depression, his mood immediately became much happier. After he finished speaking, he pushed open the door and entered the courtyard.

The two yamen runners were left staring at each other.

As soon as I entered the yard, a pungent smell of corpse hit me in the face.

Lu Feipeng sniffed with the tip of his nose, narrowed his eyes, and thought to himself:

"It seems that he must have been dead for some time, otherwise there wouldn't be such a strong stench of corpse."

Before entering the house, you can see five figures lying on the ground.

“The deceased were a family of five, a middle-aged couple, the two children were their children, and the old lady was their mother.

The coroner has examined the bodies and concluded that the deceased family must have been killed at 5:35 pm two days ago.

Judging from the untouched food on the guest table, the family must have just been preparing to have dinner, but for some reason something unexpected happened.

The wounds were all on the neck, and the cause of death was a sharp object piercing the throat. According to the information, the murder weapon should be a fingernail."

At this time, Ding Zhichang, who came over from behind, quickly reported the information he knew to Lu Feipeng and the others.

While listening, Lu Feipeng looked at the bodies on the ground.

Sure enough, a deep scratch was found on his neck, and the wound had turned black, with a faint trace of demonic energy remaining on it.

This was also the first time Lu Feipeng was involved in such a thing, so he didn't know where to start.

But it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t know, he can ask!

So he looked at Ding Zhichang and asked him:

"Captain Ding, how did you handle similar incidents in the past?"

Ding Zhichang only knew that Lu Feipeng looked unfamiliar, but didn't know his specific origins, but the three circles on his left arm could not be fake.

So he said without thinking:

"My Lord, in the past, if we encountered a similar incident, the adults in the Inspection Department would use a talisman called a tracking talisman to obtain a trace of demonic energy from the wound and track it with the tracking talisman."

When Lu Feipeng heard the word "tracking symbol", he immediately understood.

He did receive a few tracking charms yesterday, but for a moment he didn't remember them.

Then he took out a tracking talisman from the storage bag on his waist, and took a trace of magic energy from several corpses on the ground and injected it into the tracking talisman.

After doing all this, Lu Feipeng was seen making hand gestures with one hand and continuously injecting spiritual power into the tracking talisman.

The originally dim talisman suddenly became bright with the infusion of Lu Feipeng's spiritual power.

"go with!"

As Lu Feipeng let out a low shout, the tracking talisman flew from his hand into the air.

"coax…"

The next moment, the tracking talisman ignited without wind, turned into a wisp of white smoke that floated out of the house and slowly drifted in a certain direction.

"Go, follow!"

Lu Feipeng turned his head and said something to Zhou Yiming, then his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

Zhou Yiming followed closely behind. Just as Ding Zhichang was about to go forward, he heard Lu Feipeng's voice.

"Captain Ding, please deal with the body, and the two of us will deal with the murderer."

This made him, who had originally planned to follow behind him and wanted to see the strength of a third-level patrol guard, lose his freedom as soon as Lu Feipeng gave the order.

Meanwhile, Lu Feipeng and Zhou Yiming were chasing the white smoke. On the way, the white smoke kept changing directions, and the two people following behind it had no choice but to follow behind it in turns.

The white smoke transformed from the tracking symbol finally floated to a small courtyard and stopped.

Seeing this, Lu Feipeng and the other man looked at each other and realized that they had finally found the place this time and they didn't have to run around anymore.

Just as the two of them stopped, the white smoke dissipated into the sky and disappeared without a trace.

Zhou Yiming stepped forward and raised his hand, ready to knock on the gate in front of him.

But he was scolded by Lu Feipeng who was standing beside him.

"do not move!"

This scolding immediately caused Zhou Yiming's right hand, which had just been stretched out, to freeze in mid-air. However, he still asked Lu Feipeng:

"What's wrong, Brother Lu? Is there no reason why I'm too weak?"

"You really don't know your place. Do you know what we were tracking here for?"

Lu Feipeng couldn't understand who gave him the courage to join the Inspection Department so recklessly? Was he really not afraid of being caught and killed by the demons?

"Of course it's a tracking charm."

Zhou Yiming blurted out the answer without even thinking about it.

Lu Feipeng smiled and said:

"Then do you know how we found this place?"

"of course……"

Zhou Yiming was about to say something, but the next moment, his face suddenly changed, and even the hand that had been frozen in the air was immediately retracted by him.

“That was a close call!”

A feeling of surviving a disaster arose spontaneously, and Zhou Yiming stretched out his hands and patted his chest continuously. When he thought of his rash behavior just now, Zhou Yiming was filled with fear.

"Look, I'm only calling you once."

At this moment, Zhou Yiming heard Lu Feipeng's voice in his ears.

"boom…"

The next moment, he kicked open the door of the house.

As the door was kicked open, the evil energy mixed in the air rushed towards him.

The next moment, a dark shadow rushed out from the house.

The black shadow was moving so fast that Zhou Yiming could only see a residual image.

The next moment, a black shadow appeared in front of them, and stabbed Zhou Yiming with a long sword in his hand.

"what……"

Zhou Yiming was immediately frightened. Seeing the attacking sword getting closer and closer to him, a look of regret and unwillingness suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"No, my life is over!"

However, at this moment, a big knife suddenly came out from the side, and the big knife chopped on the long sword. The moment of contact, the long sword was deflected.

"Huhuhu..."

Seeing that he had escaped with his life, Zhou Yiming's heart was pounding and he kept letting out heavy gasps.

Although the black shadow was fast, Lu Feipeng did not take it seriously. He had already locked onto it the moment it appeared. How could he let Zhou Yiming get hurt in front of him?

The black shadow did not continue fighting after missing the attack. The next moment, his figure appeared three meters away from Lu Feipeng and the others.

"Drink, drink, drink..."

This black shadow didn't seem to be able to speak, and only a shout could be heard from its mouth from time to time.

"What is this?"

Lu Feipeng stared at the monster opposite him that looked like a human or a demon, and uttered a low whisper.

At this time, Zhou Yiming beside him also reacted, and then he exclaimed:

"Oh no, this is a demon. This is a demon that has been demonized by the demon clan."

After taking a closer look, Zhou Yiming was immediately startled, and then his face became extremely terrified, muttering:

"No, no, it's impossible. How could he be a demon in the Spiritual Fluid Realm?"
