Chapter 184 Shadow Ghost

Feng Zhi turned to look at her: "Why does it want to let these monsters leave the city?"

"These demons who have cultivated into humans all have demon pills on their bodies, and these demon pills are of great use to evil cultivators."

When Su Nuobai said this, he thought of another thing he had just said: "Did he just say a beautiful demon?"

"Did it say so? That's why it chose Hu Lili?" An idea flashed through Feng Zhi's mind, but he hadn't grasped it yet.

"You don't dare to come yourself, but instead let a ghost do the job." Xiao Jiang sneered.

"Even a shadow ghost can fool you." Mo Bao said with his eyes closed.

"I think you are looking for a fight." Xiao Jiang said as he hit Mo Bao.

Mo Bao jumped easily, stepped on his head, curled up his body, and landed safely.

Su Nuobai looked at the zombie and the cat jumping up and down and fighting, and shook his head helplessly. Fortunately, he had protected this house, otherwise they would fight like this every day.

This house has long been in ruins, and I don’t know how much money it would cost to repair it.

"Feng Zhi, go find Hu Lili tomorrow. I need her help with something."

Feng Zhi nodded: "Okay."

"My dear Su, I recently traveled around and found that a newlywed couple in the village was eaten." Liao Kong's voice came to his ears.

Su Nuobai was slightly stunned: "Where?"

Liaokong told her where he was recently: "But it was a long time ago. I only heard about it from the villagers when I arrived."

"Gu Yue also sent a message earlier. When they went there, the guy had already escaped and could not be tracked. Now we don't know where he is hiding."

After Su Nuobai heard what Liao Kong said, she knew that what Gu Yue had said before was not the first time it happened.

Liao Kong: "I'll look for it. I'll let you know if I have any news."

The Enke exam is over, and Taoist Master Luo Zhen and his colleagues have completed their work and are preparing to return to Qingyun Temple.

Lu Heyu came to the courtyard with them, and it seemed more comfortable here than before.

Just sitting in the yard, most of the fatigue in my body disappeared.

Taoist Master Luo Zhen and his companions gained a lot of insights during their trip down the mountain. They planned to go back and comprehend them carefully. They did not wait for Su Nuobai to come back. They packed up their things, sent her a message, and left.

Xi Tianyun also followed them back to Qingyun Temple.

Lu Heyu sat alone on a bench in the yard. He didn't know if it was because he felt comfortable here, but he closed his eyes and fell asleep unconsciously.

When Su Nuobai and the others came back, they saw him sleeping on the table, with a few fallen peach petals in his black hair.

Xiao Jiang wanted to speak, but Mo Bao covered his mouth and dragged him away.

Su Nuobai took out a cloak from her bag and gently covered him with it, but even so he did not wake up.

A soundproof barrier was set up around him to allow him to sleep more comfortably.

"Xingyun, has your master been staying up late again recently?"

Xingyun walked out from the darkness and shrugged helplessly: "The master of the imperial examination has to be in charge. Many important positions have been vacated in the court this time."

"If we randomly place people there, there will definitely be chaos. So, in addition to having Taoist Luo Zhen and others read their faces, he also retrieved their household registration and other information."

Su Nuobai brewed a pot of tea and poured a cup for Xingyun: "If Taoist Luo Zhen and the others can't figure it out, they can come to me. Why bother with so much trouble?"

"The master said that he doesn't want to rely on you for everything, otherwise he would appear useless. He would rather solve problems on his own if he can do them himself." Xingyun picked up the teacup and took a sip of water.

"That's true. After all, you are my long-term meal ticket. I can still help with this small favor." Su Nuobai looked at the sleeping Lu Heyu.

I don't know why this guy works so hard while others in his position are just slacking off.

He did his job with all his heart. If you say he was seeking wealth, his family had plenty of money. If you say he was seeking power, he was in a high position now.

Feng Zhi walked in at this time: "Miss, Hu Lili said she wants to see you now."

Su Nuobai stood up and walked outside: "Xingyun, once your master wakes up, the barrier will naturally break. If he is free this afternoon, ask him to treat me to a meal."

Xingyun stood up and nodded: "Okay."

Hu Lili's small courtyard is not big and is located on the inconspicuous edge of the city. She usually disguises herself before going out to avoid being targeted by interested people.

She was now pacing back and forth in the yard, moving her hands back and forth, obviously a little anxious.

"Hu Lili." Su Nuobai called her.

Hu Lili saw her as if she had seen a savior: "Master Su, I just heard a demon say that a butterfly demon seemed to have disappeared."

Su Nuobai narrowed his eyes: "When did it happen?"

"About half a year ago, a friend wanted to see if it had returned from its trip, so he went to look for it, but when he arrived at its house, he didn't see anyone."

"The house was covered in a thick layer of ash. She would usually go to the mountains to collect herbs and exchange them for silver, but she had never been away for half a year like this before."

Hu Lili couldn't help feeling a little worried. They had been living in Shengjing City for quite some time, and they were just like ordinary people on weekdays.

Now that a demon has suddenly disappeared, coupled with the previous tracking incident, they are all starting to worry whether someone is targeting them.

Su Nuobai: "Do you have anything this butterfly demon used? Or can you take me to her house to have a look?"

Hu Lili took out a handkerchief from her bag and handed it to her: "This is what she used. Her friend is very afraid of Master Xuan, so she asked me to ask you for help."

Su Nuobai pinched her fingers together, lit the handkerchief, and then drew a breath of air and injected it into the thousand paper cranes.

The thousand paper cranes flapped their wings twice in the air and then fell down, no longer moving.

"Master Su, what's going on?" Hu Lili asked anxiously.

Su Nuobai put away the thousand paper cranes: "The butterfly demon is dead."

"Dead, dead?" Hu Lili's face was pale.

They are monsters, so ordinary people cannot hurt them, and they never hurt ordinary people. Now the monster is dead, either it was Master Xuan who took action.

Or maybe you encountered a more powerful monster.

Su Nuobai looked at Hu Lili and said, "If we want to catch the person behind this, I'm afraid we still need your help. Otherwise, danger may be around you at any time."

Although Hu Lili was afraid, she also knew that they could not sleep well until the danger was eliminated.

Su Nuobai looked at the body trembling slightly: "Don't be nervous, since I asked you to lure it out, I will naturally keep you safe."

Hu Lili bit her lip and nodded vigorously: "I'm not afraid of death. We demons who can transform have all experienced life and death. It's just that we have never hurt anyone, but others don't want to let us go."

"There are good and bad monsters, there are good and bad people, and the same goes for ghosts. Only by keeping your original heart can you achieve the great way." Su Nuobai said to Hu Lili.
