Fellow!Stop!

There are slight "kuang kuang" sounds one after another, which is very disturbing to sleep in the quiet and lonely morning of winter.

Shiluo Town is close to the northwest, and a strong north wind suddenly blows up overnight, whistling and whimpering around the entire Shiluo Town.

In the inn where Xuan Yi lived, the window edges of several rooms downstairs were not repaired, and when the fierce north wind blew, they could not stop hitting the window frames, making a disturbing knocking sound.

Xuan Yi was disturbed to sleep by the sound, squinted his eyes a few times, and wanted to continue to sleep peacefully in a daze.

The morning sun in winter looks quite fragile when the sky is cold and freezing, and the sky has not yet been fully illuminated after Maoshi.

Unfortunately, there were a few light sounds from the edge of the window, as if someone was hitting it lightly with a sharp object.

Xuan Yi and Meng Che opened their eyes at the same time, listening intently to the voice outside the window.

"Tut duk." Another voice came again and again.

Xuan Yi wanted to get up, but Meng Che raised his hand and pressed lightly on his shoulder, signaling him to stay on the bed first and take a look.

Meng Che got up and tucked the quilt for Xuan Yi, got off the bed, put on his clothes and came to the side of the closed window.

From the window, one can clearly see the shadow of a spirit sculpture.With a flash of light in Meng Che's eyes, he quickly opened the window and let the spirit sculpture into the house.

The whole body of this spirit sculpture is snow-white, except for a fine ink-like feather on the top of its head, so it is called Dianmo.

——Dianmo is a spirit sculpture raised by Hanzhen Sanren.

The spirit carving entered the room, flapped its feathers and folded its wings, the snow-white figure was extremely eye-catching in the dark room.Xuan Yi also saw the spirit sculpture clearly in the still dark room, so he hurriedly got up from the bed and walked to Meng Che's side.

Meng Che was taking the letter tied under the paw of the Lingdiao, and when Xuan Yi came to his side, he unfolded it and read it together with him.

On the white paper, a line of small characters is clearly visible, but just one sentence has already made Xuan Yi very excited.

——Qinglan Village, Shili Town, Quanzhou, Southwest China

When in Yuyang Mountain, Xuan Yi made an appointment with Hanzhen Sanren, he and Meng Che searched north, while Hanzhen Sanren and Situ Wulin searched south.Human monsters can be seen everywhere, but earth monsters and sky monsters are extremely hard to find.Relying on him and Meng Che alone would be weak.Therefore, they work in teams of two, with a division of labor between the north and the south.Whoever finds the news about the sky demon or the earth demon first will inform the other party with a spirit sculpture, and the four of them will work together, and the chance of intercepting the demon pill will be greater.

At this time, receiving a letter from Hanzhen Sanren is tantamount to good news. Hanzhen Sanren has always been safe in dealing with things. If you can ask him to go quickly, even if you are not [-]% sure that there are monsters to catch, there will always be [-]% to [-]% .

After reading the letter, Xuan Yi was so excited that he wished he could pick up his sword and rush out now, but was stopped by Meng Che.

Meng Che looked at him worriedly and said, "Your injury hasn't healed yet."

"It's okay, let's rush over to meet with Hanzhen Sanren to discuss, and I will catch monsters after I recover from my injury." Xuan Yi saw Meng Che's worried face, so he kissed him on the cheek and assured him earnestly.

Meng Che looked at him, opened his clothes to check the wound, and had to personally guarantee from Xuan Yi that he agreed to leave on the same day.

The two of them quickly packed their bags, gently put the sleeping pine nuts into the treasure bag, hurriedly had breakfast in the inn, and rushed to the place mentioned in the letter.

Since Quanzhou and Shiluo Town were together for more than a thousand miles, and Xuan Yi was injured, Meng Che and him did not travel day and night.They traveled during the day and stayed in inns overnight. By the time they arrived in Quanzhou, it was already six days later.Xuan Yi's injury had already healed, which made Meng Che, who was worried about him all day long, finally heave a sigh of relief.

Quanzhou is located in the southwest, with a mild climate throughout the year, abundant rainfall, and sufficient sunshine. It is very suitable for the growth of various crops. Although it is not as rich as the south of the Yangtze River, most people never lack food or clothing.

Although it is cold winter, if you go to Quanzhou, at least it will be much more comfortable than the north wind howling in the northwest.Thinking of this, Xuan Yi secretly felt amused, thinking that this monster is also extremely smart, knowing how to choose a good place to stay.

However, when he really arrived in Quanzhou, it was not as he expected.The climate is indeed not cold, and there is not much rainfall, but most of the people walking in the market or in the countryside look very depressed, and the poor people with disheveled faces can be seen everywhere.

Xuan Yi and Meng Che walked with their swords all the way, looking at the land under their feet, with puzzled expressions on each other's faces.

When they approached Qinglan Village in Shili Town, they were even more surprised when they looked around.Outside Qinglan Village and within a radius of more than a hundred li, there are rice fields in a mess.Weeds are overgrown everywhere in the fields, but few crops are missing.There are even very few weeds in some fields. At a glance, they are bare, which is much worse than the original barren land in the northwest.

What's going on here?Why is this everywhere in Qinglan Manor?

Infested with pests?

Xuan Yi was puzzled all the way, when they arrived at Qinglan Villa, when they found the steward on the village and told him his name, the steward with a sad face finally showed a reserved smile.

"But Mr. Xuan and Mr. Meng?" The manager's surname is Fu. He is over forty years old. He is of moderate stature and plain-looking. The brows on his face are always frowning. Reach out to soothe him.

"Yes." Xuan Yi inexplicably looked at the expression gradually brightening in his eyes, and nodded in wonder.

"The two young masters are here!" Repeating these words, Manager Fu almost raised his sleeves and wiped his tears, a gleam of joy appeared on his face, which was like a bitter melon.

Xuan Yi raised his hand and made a series: "May I ask if Hanzhen Sanren is here?"

"Yes, yes. Two distinguished guests, please come with me." Manager Fu seemed more anxious than they were looking for someone, and while answering Xuan Yi's question, he turned around and led them into Qinglan Manor within.

Xuan Yi and Meng Che followed Manager Fu all the way to the inside of Zhuangzi, and what they passed was even more amazing than the outside of Zhuangzi they saw in the sky just now. There were so many fields that there was no grass growing, and the sand and gravel were scattered all over the field. The truth can be described as terrible.

"How could this be?" Xuan Yi was surprised and asked directly.

"Ah! Three years! Three years! Qinglanzhuang was originally rich in agricultural products, but there was no harvest for three consecutive years!" When Manager Fu said this, his emotions were already a little uncontrollable, and there was a tinge of emotion in his voice. Trembling slightly.

Xuan Yi followed Guanshi Fu all the way and saw that he had finally put away his emotions and waited to ask again, but he saw that Guanshi Fu had brought them to the meeting hall of Qinglanzhuang.As Manager Fu stepped into the gate, he immediately saw Hanzhen Sanren and Situ Wulin coming out to welcome him.

The four greeted each other, and when the manager Fu went to order the servants to pour tea, Xuan Yi didn't exchange many greetings, and went straight to the point.

Hanzhen Sanren listened eagerly to his question, so he straightened out his train of thought, and picked up signs that he thought were suspicious and asked first:

"Can you find out what's wrong with your actions along the way?"

Xuan Yi recalled it for a while, and replied: "Quanzhou in the southwest is not a barren land, why is the field so deserted?"

Hanzhen Sanren nodded and said: "Wu Lin and I came here and felt the same doubts. Manager Fu once said that since three years ago, for unknown reasons, there are often sandstorms in Quanzhou. Since then, large swaths of fields have been destroyed. The storms have been raging especially near Qinglan Village for more than a hundred miles."

After hearing this, Xuan Yi exchanged glances with Meng Che, and both felt something was different.

Xuan Yi looked at Hanzhen Sanren and said, "I don't know how Hanzhen Sanren thinks about this?"

"We have checked Qinglan Manor and its vicinity, and we feel that there is something different here."

Xuan Yi frowned and asked: "But there is a monster?"

Hanzhen Sanren shook his head in doubt: "I didn't perceive the existence of monster energy."

Xuan Yi frowned when he heard Hanzhen Sanren's answer.Hanzhen Loose Cultivator is already very advanced. He hasn't sensed the evil spirit for many days, but he feels that something is different here. Then... what is causing the trouble?

According to common sense, if there are a lot of visions in a certain place, it must be caused by evil things.But when it comes to evil things, how powerful is this evil thing, which can make the whole Quanzhou fall into a severe disaster, and this disaster will last for three years?

To be honest, Hanzhen Sanren and Situ Wulin have traveled all over the world, they should be considered well-informed, even they can't perceive the evil spirit, so how capable is the master who caused trouble this time?

A gleam of light flashed in Xuan Yi's eyes, and he already had some premonition in his heart - this is definitely not something that ordinary monsters can do.This trip seems to be not in vain!

Everyone was silent, but Meng Che's cold voice suddenly sounded: "I didn't feel the evil spirit, but there was resentment."

This short sentence caused everyone to suddenly turn their attention to him.I saw that Meng Che was closing his eyes, and there seemed to be an ice-blue aura flowing around his body, as if he was interacting with the heaven and earth with his own aura.

"Resentment?" Hanzhen Sanren and Xuan Yi asked at the same time.They were all very surprised, resentment is usually only issued by ghosts.So, what kind of ghost is this, whose resentment is enough to make Quanzhou fall into a barren land?

At the same time, Situ Wulin suddenly asked: "Brother Meng Xian, your spiritual power seems to be different from before?"

Only then did Hanzhen Sanren concentrate on discussing with Xuan Yi, and did not pay attention to Meng Che.And Situ Wulin has always been particularly sensitive to the atmosphere around him, and it was he who asked the question at this time, and Han Zhensan realized that Meng Che was different from the past.Hanzhen Sanren stared at him, only to realize that Meng Che's spiritual power was surrounding him like a faint mist.

All these situations made Hanzhen Sanren's heart tremble suddenly.

This is... this is... the aura that I have only seen on Master Ziyun Shangxian!

"Meng Che! Have you cultivated to become an immortal?" Hanzhen Sanren confirmed with a little surprise.

Meng Che opened his eyes to look at him, and nodded slightly. Hanzhen Sanren looked carefully, only to find that the aura in his eyes was like deep sea water. The aura was abundant and endless. float.

No wonder he is the only one who can perceive that the vision in Quanzhou is not monster energy, but resentment energy, because his cultivation base has reached the upper immortal, and his perception of the natural world must be much higher than that of immortal cultivators who have not yet broken through the Mahayana limit.

Hanzhen Sanren has no worries or doubts.Originally, he was worried that his visit would be in vain, but this time he received the message from Meng Che, and he also felt in his heart that there was a very high possibility that there would be unusual monsters here.Situ Wulin saw Hanzhen Sanren glanced at him, immediately understood, went to the meeting hall to summon the servants and invited the steward Fu to come.

Manager Fu originally wanted to give the seniors more time to discuss, but who would have thought that he would be called over half an hour later. Could it be... can these four people really solve the sandstorm that has plagued Quanzhou for the past three years?Thinking of this, Manager Fu couldn't help feeling a little dazed.

Seeing Guanshi Fu's worried look, Hanzhen Sanren asked slowly, "Guanfu Fu, you once said that Quanzhou was hit by a storm three years ago?"

Manager Fu nodded in a daze and said, "Yes, is the Taoist priest sure that there is a monster here?" In his heart, he had doubts about killing the monster after finding it. After all, they have invited countless Taoist priests and immortal cultivators in the past three years However, no one can find out what kind of monster is here.If it wasn't for someone in the yamen who proposed to invite the three great immortal clans, Fu Guanshi might not have been able to stop Hanzhen Loose Clan passing by here in time and ask for help.But even the well-known Hanzhen Sanren couldn't find out what kind of monster it was after several days of investigation, so he is in a trance now, not sure why Hanzhen Sanren asked him so.

"It's not evil spirit, it's resentment." Meng Che looked at Manager Fu with a puzzled expression, and reminded him to correct him.

"Resentment? It's from the ghost?" Manager Fu couldn't believe it. Can the ghost's resentment cause such a disaster in Quanzhou?So they were all wrong?

Meng Che looked at Manager Fu and shook his head.

Xuan Yi knew that Meng Che had always been a quiet talker, so he followed up Meng Che's unspoken words and asked, "Does Manager Fu know that there have been any major cases in the past three years?"

Manager Fu thought about it carefully for a moment, and answered with certainty: "It has never happened before." Qinglan Village is considered a big village in Quanzhou. It is absolutely impossible not to know the important food production places in places like Zhuang.

Xuan Yi continued to ask: "Then, have more than a thousand people died tragically overnight? Whether it is caused by man-made or disease, it is counted." If it were not for the resentment of thousands of people, it would be impossible to cause such a serious situation. disaster.

Manager Fu replied with certainty: "Absolutely not."

After hearing this, Meng Che concluded, "So it's not caused by a ghost transformed from a human soul."

Listening to the conversation of several people, Situ Wulin already understood the meaning of Xuan Yi and Meng Che, and then asked: "Is Qinglan Village the most affected place?"

Manager Fu nodded.

Xuan Yi knew what Situ Wulin meant, and the cause was still in Qinglan Manor.So he followed Situ Wulin's words and asked: "Manager Fu, did any strange things happen in Qinglan Manor three years ago?"

"Never." Manager Fu frowned, just answered no, but seemed to think of something and changed his words: "Ah...it seems that a family died."

Since the establishment of Qinglan Village, the agricultural products have been abundant, so the treatment for each tenant is quite good.Besides, even though Quanzhou is relatively wealthy, no one has ever starved to death in Qinglan Village.But three years ago, there was a family of children who starved to death in the Zhuangzi. Starving to death was a special thing in Qinglanzhuang, because he was reminded by a few people in front of him.

"Please tell Steward Fu to explain this matter in detail." Hanzhen Sanren gave a slight salute to Steward Fu.

Manager Fu didn't want to say more at first, after all, in his view, there was nothing suspicious, besides, there was a child who starved to death in the village. If it spread out, it would have an impact on Zhuangzi's reputation, but seeing the serious expressions of these experts, He explained the matter clearly from beginning to end.The parents of the child who starved to death died of disease, which was a normal death, not an accidental homicide or an unjust death. Therefore, they did not pay attention to it in the Zhuangzi at that time, and the parents of the child were buried hastily.The child lost his parents when he was only five or six years old. According to the local saying, it is considered to be the life of the father and the mother. Everyone feels that it is unlucky, and they don't want to interact with it. They rarely give alms. Under the care and feeding, it dragged on for a year and a half before starving to death.

After Manager Fu explained the matter clearly, several people thought about it for a while. Although they felt that there was some indifference here, they didn't find anything wrong according to the local customs.After all, in all parts of the country, if a child's parents die early, such a child will be considered unlucky.

"Manager Fu, I don't know where the family lived before?" Xuan Yi thought about it secretly, thinking that thinking is not the answer, he should go to the family's house, maybe there are some clues to be found.

"They live in the northernmost corner of Qinglanzhuang, a little far from Zhuangzi's main hall. They were originally going to be demolished and converted into farmland, but in recent years there has been no harvest. Zhuangzi didn't move that place because he couldn't make ends meet." Manager Fu He twirled his thin goatee, frowned and recalled, and then said: "If the distinguished guests don't mind, I can take you to see it."

Having said that, but when Manager Fu led these people to the family's house, he really didn't have much expectation in his heart.After all, this is really not a big deal, and it is not an unjust case. How could a family with three lives add up to such a big resentment?This is really unreasonable, so when Hanzhen Sanren and the others came here to investigate, Manager Fu really didn't think about this family, so naturally it was impossible to tell this matter.

But what Manager Fu and the hundreds of tenants in Qinglan Manor didn't expect was that he found the source of the problem just by mentioning it in passing today.

Indeed, it wasn't caused by the family's own death, nor was it that the little child who starved to death held any grudges against them.However, this monstrous resentment really came for the children.

This little boy who was ignored by no one back then, even his name and appearance have faded from people's memory, was actually deeply missed by the spirit demon transformed from the earth.
