Chapter 74: News from the Governor



Suddenly, the blood-sucking ghost disappeared from Qin Yuesheng's sight, and was replaced by two fist-sized objects on the ground.

"Hehe...Hehe..." Qin Yuesheng gasped. All this happened in an instant, so even though he was pierced by the blood spear, he did not suffer too much damage to his flesh and blood.

"That was a close call." Qin Yuesheng said thankfully, touching the wound on his body.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, it was the decomposition function that helped him a lot. It was really unexpected.

Pick up the Evil-Suppressing Knife that fell on the ground, and the two things obtained after decomposing the Blood-Sucking Ghost.

This is a blood-red heart and a white embryo. The embryo is very hard and feels like jade when touched.

Inside the embryo, there was a dog monster curled up in a ball and sleeping with its eyes closed. It looked exactly like the blood-sucking ghost just now.

"Ghost fetus, blood-eating ghost?" Qin Yuesheng looked at the dog monster in the ghost fetus in confusion.

"Could it be that the blood-devouring ghost was hatched from this ghost fetus?"

Looking at the other blood-sucking ghost heart, this was the second heart he obtained using the decomposition function.

Last time, the Heart of the Heavenly Demon brought him a huge amount of almighty essence. I wonder what benefits the Heart of the Blood-devouring Ghost will bring this time.

After stuffing both things into Tianmo's waist bag, Qin Yuesheng picked up his knife and walked towards the Qin family cargo ship.

Without the blood-sucking ghost, the remaining tentacles on the cargo ship lost their autonomy. Even if Qin Yuesheng approached, no tentacle would penetrate from the wooden planks of the hull to attack him.

After searching around in the cargo ship, Qin Yuesheng finally found several human skins in the middle section of the ship that had not been discovered by the bailiffs before.

At the same time, there was a blood-stained cocoon wrapped like a mummy in the corner.

Qin Yue was afraid that this thing was something similar to the blood-sucking ghost, so he chopped it off with a knife, intending to destroy it completely.

The blood threads on the surface of the blood cocoon were broken into pieces, exposing its true appearance inside.

"Hiss!" Qin Yuesheng couldn't help but take a breath.

The person in front of him was Xun Sheng, who everyone thought had met with misfortune.

Xun Sheng's entire body was covered in a layer of ice crystals, freezing him completely inside. Perhaps it was this layer that prevented him from having his flesh and blood sucked out by the blood-sucking ghost.

Qin Yuesheng knocked the ice crystal with the handle of the knife, and the ice crystal immediately broke into slight cracks.

After several attempts, the entire ice crystal suddenly shattered. Xun Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and shouted excitedly: "Don't eat me!!!"

Qin Yuesheng: "..."

Xun Sheng's voice echoed in the cabin. Qin Yuesheng looked at him, and he looked at Qin Yuesheng. The two of them stared at each other, feeling a little awkward.

Qin Yuesheng took the initiative to break the awkward situation: "That's great, sir, you are still alive."

Xun Sheng was stunned for a moment, but soon reacted and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Thank God, this time it is really thanks to Lord Bai Hao."

Xun Sheng was helped up from the ground. His body was very cold, like a popsicle.

Looking at the human skins not far away, Xun Sheng asked, "How long have I been captured?"

"Less than a day, sir, what method did you use just now? I felt it was very strange."

Xun Sheng said, "This time, Lord Bai Hao came to Qingyang City and gave me a small gift, a jade ring. He said it has the effect of protecting the body. It can only be used once, and it is best used in life-or-death situations. I don't know the specific effect, but it should be the scene you saw me in."

"Lord Bai Hao is truly a god." Qin Yuesheng said with emotion.

"What's the current situation? Has the murderer of those crew members been found?"

Qin Yuesheng nodded: "I have already eliminated it. It was a corpse ghost."

"Excellent, absolutely excellent." Xun Sheng patted Qin Yuesheng's arm. "I am very pleased that Qingyang City has a young talent like you. From now on, if you encounter any difficulties in Qingyang City, feel free to come to me. I will definitely help you solve it within my ability."

"Thank you, sir. I'd better help you out first. You must be tired after being locked up for so long."

"Well said."

"Also, although this ship is no longer a threat, we still need to send someone to deal with it. I suggest burning it."

"Okay, I'll have someone come over to take care of it tomorrow."

After taking Xun Sheng away from the cargo ship, Qin Yuesheng sent him back to the yamen, and also took him to experience the feeling of speeding and leaping on the roofs of every household at night.

Qin Yuesheng: "Sir, this feeling is quite refreshing."

Xun Sheng held his waist with one hand and the stone lion at the gate of the yamen with the other: "Ugh..."

"My Lord! It's my Lord who has returned!"

As Xun Sheng walked into the yamen, an official immediately recognized him and quickly went to inform the various assistant officers.

Xun Sheng is still alive, this is great news.

After all, these people have followed Xun Sheng for many years and have long been considered to be in the same faction as him. If a new prefect were to take over, there would probably be a major change in their positions, which would not be very beneficial to those who currently hold official positions.

Sitting in the lobby, Xun Sheng stroked the lid of his teacup with some trepidation. "I've been a prefect for many years, and this is the first time I've encountered something like this. Although it was dangerous, I've escaped death, which is a glorious experience in my life."

Xiang Quan immediately offered his flattery: "Since you have survived a great disaster, you will surely have good fortune in the future."

Xun Sheng asked, "Has Lord Bai returned from his outing?"

Xu Jin said, "I just received a letter from Lord Bai via carrier pigeon. It says there's a clue to Miss Wan'er's whereabouts. Lord Bai is still searching and will probably have to stay out for a few more days. Also, a courier just arrived from Chang'an, saying they had this for Lord Bai."
