Chapter 81 Caution
"It was Mrs. Zhou Li. She was talking nonsense in the village, saying something like there was a dead body. She frightened the patrolling village guards, so they called me over and called Doctor Wei over. Doctor Wei slapped her twice, and she came to her senses a little!"
At this point, Cheng Yong paused, his face full of mixed emotions. 'Mrs. Zhou Li' was Aunt Li. She said, "Except for saying that she found a body here, she didn't know anything else!"
"Zhou Li?"
Wang Lin said angrily: "It was her who almost stole our Ping An away and almost killed our Ping An. You must take care of our family!"
"Just now when Doctor Wei examined Mrs. Zhou Li, he said something that said she was frightened. Who knew this would happen?"
Cheng Yong smiled bitterly, then looked down at the black-robed corpse not far away. He seemed to have thought of something, and his pupils shrank suddenly. His eyes were filled with shock that could not be concealed. He said in astonishment:
"Brother Wang, you just said that it was the evil cultivator who had been causing trouble in Qingyang County recently. Is this true or false?"
"These are all our Dong Zhu's guesses. How would I know if they are true or not? But there is a great possibility that they are true!"
Wang Lin said, "How about you, village chief, ask someone to come over and confirm whether this man in black robe is an evil cultivator?"
"I will arrange for someone with strong legs to go to the county government to report the case!"
Cheng Yong turned his head and looked at the burly men around him who were armed. They were all members of the Hutougou Village Protection Team. Ever since Mao He told him not long ago that there were evil cultivators wreaking havoc in Qingyang County, he had arranged for the village protection team to patrol all day.
Each group consists of two people and is responsible for eight hours of patrol missions.
I never expected that the evil cultivator had been dealt with in just one day, and it was announced that the village protection team could give up patrolling.
although.
Wang Lin didn't dare to guarantee whether the body of the black-robed man in front of him was the evil cultivator himself, but from Wang Lin's description - no, it was Wang Lin's retelling, he discovered that the body of the black-robed man in front of him was the evil cultivator himself.
In all likelihood, it is the evil cultivator himself!
Cheng Yong selected a strong man with good leg strength and gave him a few instructions. When he stood up and prepared to go to the county government to report the case, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to him, and he said:
"Wait, when you go to the county town, don't go to the county government to report the case first. Go find Taoist Xuanqing first and ask him to come over first!"
He was not afraid that his and Wang Lin's guess was wrong. The black-robed corpse in front of him was not the evil cultivator himself, and that the people from the county government would make a wasted trip.
Regardless of whether the body of the man in black robe is the evil cultivator himself, the mere presence of a body here is enough to attract people from the county government to come.
He suddenly gave up asking for help from the people in the county government and instead went to ask Taoist Xuanqing first because he knew that if the body of the man in black robe was that of the evil cultivator himself, it would be of great benefit to Taoist Xuanqing.
yesterday.
When he arranged for the village protection team to patrol, he went to Xuanqing Temple. Originally, he wanted to ask Taoist Xuanqing to take action. After all, the evil cultivator who dared to ignore the immortal officials in charge of Qingyang County and cause chaos in Qingyang County must be a top-notch powerful character.
The people in their village protection team are all strong men who have practiced some mediocre kung fu, but compared with the evil cultivators, it is no exaggeration to say that there is a world of difference between them.
If we really encounter an evil cultivator, with the abilities he displays, we may not even be able to sound the alarm, let alone drive him away.
It has to be a master like Taoist Master Xuanqing who has achieved great success in practicing Taoism!
Unfortunately, to his disappointment, he learned from Taoist Xuanqing that the Qingyang County Immortal Official had asked Taoist Xuanqing to help solve the evil cultivators that were causing trouble in Qingyang County, and that he could not come to Hutougou to protect them.
As for why Taoist Xuanqing agreed to the request of the Immortal Official of Qingyang County, although Taoist Xuanqing did not say it explicitly and he did not ask, it is needless to say that in addition to the righteousness, he also agreed to great benefits.
Although Taoist Master Xuanqing was unable to come to Hutougou to take charge, he still gave him a few talismans, saying that even if he could not solve the problem of the evil cultivators, he could at least drive them away.
Don't even want his money!
Facing Taoist Xuanqing's kindness and righteousness, he knew that if the body of the man in black robe was indeed that of an evil cultivator, it would definitely be of great benefit to Taoist Xuanqing. How could he send it to the county government?
"Guihua, take your Dongzhu and Ping'an back first. Staying here for too long is not good for your Dongzhu's health. She is still in confinement after giving birth!"
When Cheng Chengyong looked at a villager walking towards the county town, he retracted his gaze and saw Liu Dongzhu's expression full of fear and relief out of the corner of his eye. Knowing this, Liu Dongzhu was greatly stimulated.
Wang Lin reacted and said, "Old lady, take Dongzhu and Ping'an back!"
"Dong Zhu, let's go back!"
Zhang Guihua nodded, helped Liu Dongzhu up, who was sitting on the ground like a puddle of mud, and said distressedly: "You are still in confinement. Ping An was born not long ago. You can't catch a cold, otherwise there will be sequelae!"
"Two people come to help them, so that the three of them won't be attacked!"
Cheng Yong gave an order. Although this possibility was very small, there was an old saying: It is better to be safe than sorry.
Not to mention that the three of them were from Hutougou, and not to mention that Wang Ping'an was the disciple of Taoist Xuanqing, let's just say that Wang Ping'an was a person who had to deal with even the evil cultivators. Even when Taoist Xuanqing and the Immortal Official were preparing to join forces to deal with the evil cultivators, the evil cultivators still dared to come and harm Wang Ping'an's life.
This is enough to show Wang Ping'an's extraordinaryness!
If it were any other evil cultivator, with their vigilance, upon hearing the slightest hint of something, they would either hide themselves immediately or flee to some other place.
"Village Chief, this is not necessary..."
Wang Lin was about to reject Cheng Yong's kindness, but before he could finish his words, Cheng Yong interrupted him and said, "It's better to be cautious. Let's talk about this evil cultivator first. How did he die?"
Having said that, Cheng Yong subconsciously glanced at the body of the man in black robe, and vaguely saw a horrible bloody hole where his heart should be.
This doesn't look like it was caused by a sharp weapon!
"Village chief, it has not been confirmed whether he is an evil cultivator or not!"
Wang Lin's face straightened. Seeing Cheng Yong smiling, he obviously still believed that the black-robed corpse was an evil cultivator. Without further ado, he continued, "It should be caused by the lightning talisman given by Taoist Xuanqing!"
"The lightning talisman?"
Cheng Yongdao was not too surprised. Yesterday, when he was at Xuanqing Temple, the talisman that Taoist Xuanqing gave him was this one. Taoist Xuanqing would give it to an outsider like him. Wang Ping'an was his disciple, so it was impossible that he didn't have it. He said:
"I remember that Taoist Xuanqing seemed to have said that the Lightning Strike Talisman is specifically used to deal with evil cultivators. If this man was killed by the Lightning Strike Talisman, then it means that he is most likely the evil cultivator who has been causing trouble in Qingyang County recently!"
"should be……"
Wang Lin subconsciously wanted to nod, but before he could finish his words, he changed his tone and said, "Let's wait for Taoist Xuanqing to come over. Then we'll know if he's an evil cultivator or not!"
