The two are now in the lair of an unknown evil creature, with mountains of corpses and seas of blood under their feet. However, Xie Beiming said to a half-rotten corpse: I have seen this face.
Shen Qiqi immediately became alert and turned to look at him.
Because Xie Beiming has never been a person who talks nonsense.
Sure enough, he said, "Last time in Pingxi Village, while you were unconscious, I went back. A villager told me that his brother had been captured by an evil spirit and asked if I could help him find his brother. He also said that the two brothers were twins and looked exactly the same, so I took a few more pictures of that man's face."
Xie Beiming's long eyebrows furrowed more and more tightly. He stared at the half-rotten corpse in front of him and said in a deep voice: "That person's face is exactly the same as this face."
"..." Shen Qiqi paused, thought for a moment, and said, "Maybe they just happened to have similar faces?"
Xie Beiming: "That person also told me that his brother had a black birthmark the size of a copper coin behind his right ear."
Shen Qiqi quickly went around to the back of the corpse to check, and sure enough, she found a birthmark behind the other person's right ear.
Although a small part of the birthmark had rotted away, it was undoubtedly black, and judging from the curvature of the remaining part, it was indeed in the shape of a copper coin.
Two strangers may happen to have a similar face, but if even the position, color and size of the birthmark are exactly the same, it is not a coincidence.
The only explanation is: the two are one.
In other words, the half-rotten corpse in front of him was the brother from Pingxi Village who was captured by the evil spirit.
Speaking of which, the evil ghost in Pingxi Village and the unidentified evil creature under the ancestral hall of Master Qi have one thing in common: both of them have a layer of black mist armor on their bodies.
The difference is: although the black mist armor on the evil ghost in Pingxi Village is invulnerable to swords and spears, Shen Qiqi can use talismans to break the black mist armor.
However, the unknown evil creature living under the ancestral hall of Master Qi's family is not afraid of talismans, and is obviously several times more powerful than the evil ghost in Pingxi Village. Comparing the two things together, it is like one has just entered the apprenticeship and the other has already achieved academic success.
But the evil ghost in Pingxi Village had already been killed by her and Xie Beiming. They saw it reduced to ashes with their own eyes.
Something that had been reduced to ashes suddenly appeared somewhere else and wreaked havoc for months... Wait! Months?!
Shen Qiqi suddenly turned her head to look at Xie Beiming.
"Master Xie, do you know when this disaster in Furong Town started?"
Before, when they were in Wuji Sect, Yinqiao only told her that the evil spirit in Furong Town had been causing trouble for more than several months.
But Yinqiao didn't say exactly how many months this "several months" meant, and she didn't ask in detail.
Two months can be called several months, and ten months can also be called several months.
Xie Beiming was searching for something in the cave. Upon hearing this, he withdrew his gaze and looked at her with appreciation.
"Furong Town has been in turmoil for the past three years. People occasionally go missing inexplicably, but not often. On average, about six or seven people go missing each year. This number of missing people is within the normal range, so the residents of Furong Town didn't panic at first."
"It wasn't until over three months ago that the number of missing people in the town suddenly increased dramatically, and the people began to panic. It's reported that a total of 178 people have disappeared in the town over these three months."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Shen Qiqi quietly, with no intention of continuing to speak, nor did he urge Shen Qiqi to do anything, as if giving her time to think.
