The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

Anger was boiling in her heart, making her very angry. Seeing that she looked unhappy, Gong Yu tried to persuade her, "Not everyone in Huajing is stupid. There are always smart people and martial arts masters. He was killed because he did evil and then he got himself killed."

"Sister, don't be angry. That kind of bad guy has done so many evil things that he might have already been targeted by the righteous knights in the martial arts world. This can save us the trouble. Wouldn't it be better to use someone else's hands instead of doing it ourselves?" Qi Baige also advised her in a low voice, revealing a great wisdom in his words.

Mu Hanxing admired her quite a bit. What the two generals said were right. She was angry because someone got there first and robbed her of the spotlight. She was a little depressed. Anyway, it was good that Jing Leizi was dead.

The three of them bought three buns at the bun shop to fill their stomachs. As they were eating hastily on the side of the road, they heard someone on the street shouting, "It's written in blood that the statue of Jing Leizi in the Wuliang Pagoda must be smashed, otherwise the gods will come down to earth to punish us!"

"Ah? Come on, let's go together!"

"Take me one!"

A group of people were talking, holding axes and hoes in their hands, and walked towards the tower in a group. Mu Hanxing quickly ate the remaining half of the bun and said to the two of them, "Let's follow them!"

The three of them followed the triumphant crowd and hurried to the Wuliang Pagoda.

I saw a group of people fighting in front of the tower. The few people holding tools just now hit the statue of Jing Leizi with an axe. With a "bang", a corner of the statue was broken. Jing Leizi's believers had already suffered a blow when they heard that he was dead. They were too sad to lose their faith, so for a while, this group of people united and rushed over to wrestle with the people who chopped the statue. The scene was extremely chaotic.

"The Imperial Master's body is still warm, you are committing a sin!"

"Bullshit! He clearly deserves to be put to death. He performs rituals in front of the Wuliang Pagoda all day long, but the ghosts in Huajing never really disappear. This is nothing but a scam!"

"How dare you curse the Imperial Master? Are you rebelling?"

"Ignore them! Take the statue down!"

"Yes, worshipping two gods in one temple is a big taboo! General Yunhui's spirit appeared because you put Jing Leizi's statue together with him. Who can stand it?"

“Tear it down!”

Even in such a chaotic time, Mu Hanxing saw that there were still believers who were calm and composed, kneeling in front of the pagoda to burn incense and worship, and even putting money into the merit box.

...It's terrible. She couldn't help but sigh and shook her head slowly.

"This Jing Leizi's death is strange, could it be related to the Jiuzhou Ding?" Qi Baige frowned and said, "Senior Sister, I still want to investigate the matter of the Jiuzhou Ding. If someone sneaked into the Imperial Master's Mansion and killed Jing Leizi in order to take that thing away, then this matter makes sense. The murderer might be the first person who entered the ruined temple last night."

It was a very chaotic day and she didn't know how the Jiuzhou Ding was stolen. She also didn't know whether it was taken back to the National Master's Mansion by Jing Leizi's men in the middle of the night. Everything was a mystery.

Qi Baige's guess made sense. Maybe there really was a reckless man with great martial arts skills who sneaked into the Imperial Master's Mansion to steal the tripod and kill people. Mu Hanxing hesitated for a moment and said to Qi Baige, "Okay, then you should be careful. I don't bring much with me this time, and I don't have any healing pills to give you."

"My injury is no longer serious. Thank you Chenchen for finding the hemostatic herb for me. I'm leaving first." Qi Baige was worried that the Jiuzhou Ding would be the beginning of a disaster, and he couldn't just leave it alone.

She had just left in a hurry when she turned back and said to Mu Hanxing carefully, "Also, Senior Sister, I will continue to help you investigate the matter of your obsession when I am free."

"Junior sister, don't worry. I know what's going on." Everyone said that she was going to be possessed by a demon, so she had to investigate it herself.

"Okay, then I'll take the first step."

After Qi Baige finished speaking, he squatted down and stroked the little pink pig at an extremely fast speed, then quickly disappeared into the crowd.

"What should we do now?" Gong Yu asked in a low voice.

The crowd was making so much noise that some officials came over to try to stop them. However, there were too many people making trouble and the situation could not be calmed down in a short time.

Now that Jing Leizi is dead, the plan has changed.

Mu Hanxing decided to go to the tower alone tonight to meet General Yunhui. It would be bad to just ignore the haunted place. She asked Gong Yu, "Do you have any magic weapon to calm the soul?"

"I have a soul-calming talisman. I don't know if it will work, but I can only give it a try. Lord City Lord, are you planning to break into the tower tonight?" Gong Yu looked shocked and a little worried.

"Of course, it's not a good idea to keep going on like this. Do you have any idea about the blood letter?" she asked.

"I have heard of one thing. It is said that many years ago, an immortal came to Huajing to punish evildoers. After killing someone, he would write a blood letter with the prisoner's blood. The contents of the blood letter mostly revealed the prisoner's crime. However, no one has ever seen this immortal, but some people believe in him very much and will act according to the instructions in the blood letter, just like smashing the statue of Jing Leizi today." Gong Yu explained.

"I see. Anyway, let's wait until night and then we can go into the tower," she said decisively.

The revived evil spirits are usually inactive during the day, but only active in the middle of the night when it is dark.

She was not afraid of the haunted tower even though she knew it was haunted. Besides waiting until she returned to Fuyue City and finding time to practice with the sect secrets given to her by her senior brother, she also had to find monsters in the wild to upgrade herself, so that she could progress faster in her practice to the highest level.

The two were discussing plans for tonight when they heard lazy footsteps.

"Good morning, Lord City Lord."

This sound startled Mu Hanxing. On the surface, she remained calm, frowning slightly. She turned around and looked with a hint of doubt on her face: "Jingchen? Where did you go?"

I saw that he had changed his clothes, wearing a white robe, a jade crown to tie his hair, and a half mask on his face. He looked like a different person, and his temperament seemed to have become more reserved and calm.

He was holding a few bags of honey fruit tea in his hand, and he handed them over and explained, "I haven't been back to Huajing for a long time, and I miss my hometown so much that I walked around the city alone. I hope the city lord will forgive me."

Mu Hanxing took the honey fruit tea without hesitation and stuffed it into her sleeve. It was all hers.

At this time, Gong Yu rolled his eyes and said coldly: "Master Jing."

Jing Chen turned his sight and found that there was someone standing next to him. He quickly apologized gently: "My eyes are not good enough. I haven't seen you for a long time, so I can't recognize you. Is you going back to the city?"

"Wherever the city lord goes, I go." Gong Yu didn't even look at him and rolled his eyes.

The main reason was that he felt that Jingchen was a bit ungrateful. The city lord was so good to him, doting on him, and giving him enough face in front of the whole city, but he was still unwilling to sleep with him. Why did a person who managed money put on such a big airs? The city lord liked him, wasn't that exalting him? He simply didn't know what was good for him.

What's more, Gong Yu had tactfully advised the city lord not to be blinded by lust and give too much power to Jingchen, as this would only bring harm to himself. But the city lord happened to be intermittently blind and fell in love with him, preferring to be a tyrant. It was really terrible.
