“Huff huff!”
The figure was running in the night, but in terms of speed, he was no match for Qin Yuesheng. In just a few breaths, Qin Yuesheng had come behind this person and grabbed his shoulder tightly.
"Huh? Why is it you!"
Qin Yuesheng was surprised. The person in front of him was actually the village chief Peng from Pengqiao Village.
Village chief Peng showed a cruel look on his face, and immediately drew out a dagger to stab Qin Yuesheng, but the dagger just touched Qin Yuesheng's heart and then stopped.
Qin Yuesheng is now at the level of external forging hammer, and no iron weapon can hurt him at all, not to mention that he is wearing a layer of demon inner armor under his robe. It is as difficult as climbing to the sky for Village Chief Peng to kill him with such a short sword.
Qin Yuesheng grabbed the dagger by the blade and broke it in half. He then grabbed Village Chief Peng by the collar and said, "Tell me, why do you want to kill me? I have no grudge against you, right? Is it because I killed that spider?"
Village Chief Peng grabbed Qin Yuesheng's hand, trying to get him to let go, but their strength was simply not on the same level. In the end, he could only sternly say, "Let me go! You've made a grave mistake and are doomed to die. If you let me speak a few good words for you, you might be able to save your life."
Qin Yuesheng laughed: "What a big tone! I want to see who can make sure I die."
After saying that, Qin Yuesheng grabbed Village Chief Peng's neck with one hand, exerting slight force, as if to break his larynx.
“Ahem!”
Village chief Peng kept struggling, but it was of no use. On the contrary, the strength in Qin Yuesheng's hands became stronger and stronger, and the feeling of suffocation in his mind became stronger and stronger.
"Young Master Qin... please... spare my life..."
Qin Yuesheng loosened his grip slightly, giving him a chance to breathe. "Tell me, why do you want to kill me? What happened to those sneaky things just now? Can you control them?"
In the face of death, Village Chief Peng chose to admit defeat. In response to Qin Yuesheng's questions, he told him everything he knew.
"You killed the beauty spider that Deacon Wang had raised. One of my junior apprentices and I live here, responsible for keeping watch over the beauty spider. He's incredibly talented and even more beloved by Master than I am, so Master taught him many techniques. He used those techniques to manipulate those sneaky moves."
Qin Yuesheng: "You are not the real Village Chief Peng?"
"No, Village Chief Peng is my imposter."
Qin Yuesheng stretched out his hand and grabbed the man's face, immediately pulling off a layer of human skin mask and wig.
Under the mask was a middle-aged man with ordinary appearance.
"Who is your master, and why does he know how to control sneaky things? Who is this Deacon Wang you mentioned, and what's the story behind the Beauty Spider?"
"It's Wang Tao, the steward of the Gold and Silver Pavilion. He heard that the recently transferred eunuch Guangzhao from Yangzhou Prefecture likes to keep strange creatures in captivity. He wanted to curry favor with one or two, so he specifically asked a traveling sorcerer for the method of raising beauty spiders with poison. By sacrificing a young woman to a strange spider mother, who would then eat her, he had a chance of raising a beauty spider."
Qin Yuesheng suddenly remembered the blood-stained altar he found in the forest during the day. He thought that these people must have done these cruel things there.
Offering one's own kind to a spider for food, just to get a beauty spider to offer to a eunuch, is worse than pigs and dogs.
"My master is..."
"Brother, you seem to have said too much."
Suddenly, a whisper came from the darkness.
"You! You actually put a curse on me!"
I saw 'Village Chief Peng' suddenly foaming at the mouth, his eyes rolled back, his body and limbs twitching and shaking constantly, and finally he died completely in a fit of tremors.
"He's dead now..." Qin Yuesheng put 'Village Chief Peng' on the ground. Judging from the desire to survive shown by the other party, he was not a person who would dare to commit suicide. It must be closely related to that voice.
Following the direction of the voice, Qin Yuesheng went straight there. He caught 'Village Chief Peng' in the peach blossom forest near Pengqiao Village. After going deeper, he found the house located deep in the peach blossom forest.
That day, "Village Chief Peng" said that this house was left behind by the villagers who left Pengqiao Village, but now it seems that it is not that simple.
"Young man, your kung fu is good, but some things can't be solved by kung fu alone. You killed the Beauty Spider, and Deacon Wang won't let you go. I'm giving you a suggestion that will save your life. Leave Qingyang City quickly, the farther away the better."
The same voice from before sounded again.
Qin Yuesheng curled his lips: "What nonsense, you will let me go so easily? Are you so kind?"
After saying that, Qin Yuesheng rushed into the yard with a knife in his hand, and saw that the yard was empty. There was nothing there except a well and a broken cart.
The only room that attracted the most attention was the one with the door half open.
Qin Yuesheng jumped up, climbed onto the roof, and slashed down with his Collapsing Mountain Blade, directly cutting the roof into two, carrying a large number of broken tiles into the house.
Then he saw a white-haired old man with a cane sitting on a chair in the room. In the darkness, his slightly glowing dark green eyes were staring at Qin Yuesheng.
When Qin Yuesheng was about to land, the old man moved.
The crutch thrust out like a spear, heading straight for Qin Yuesheng's throat. Although he had made great progress in external training, Qin Yuesheng would not let someone hit his throat in vain.
So he grabbed the cane with one hand, using softness to overcome hardness to grab one end of it, and at the same time shook it violently, transferring the force towards the old man.
The old man suddenly swung his crutch, using his clever strength to free the crutch from Qin Yuesheng's control, and then grabbed it with a claw, pressing the weak point of Qin Yuesheng's body.
