Chapter 88 Jingci Town



When I arrived at Bai Hao's residence with the booklet given by Xun Sheng, I saw Bai Hao just walking out of the house, looking very melancholy.

"Master Bai?" Qin Yuesheng shouted.

"It's you." Bai Hao relaxed his brows, deliberately controlling his expression and said, "I just happened to want to tell you something. Come with me."

Bai Hao took Qin Yuesheng directly to the next room.

"The room I lived in before is now given to my apprentice. If you have any problems in the future, come here to find me." Bai Hao said.

Qin Yuesheng nodded: "Yes."

Then he handed the booklet to the other party: "Master Bai, this is something that Master Xun asked me to pass on to you. He said it was sent down by express from the Seven Stars Prison in Chang'an."

Bai Hao took it, opened it and examined it carefully, and spoke after a long time.

"Chang'an sent several colleagues from the Seven Stars Prison over here. Their ranks are four wood, three iron, and one bronze."

"Oh!" Qin Yuesheng was secretly surprised. He knew that Bai Hao was talking about four people with wooden evil-warding toads, three people with iron evil-warding toads, and one person with copper evil-warding toad.

The ranks of the Seven Star Supervisors are divided according to their strength, and the capable ones occupy high positions.

I heard that Prince Li Mu, the number one person in the Seven Star Supervisory Commission, the Seven Star General, the owner of the Dragon Horned Purple Golden Toad, is a top master of the tenth level of internal strength. As long as he can take one more step, he can reach the mysterious master level.

Qin Yuesheng is not quite sure yet what kind of strength is needed to be promoted to the Bronze Toad rank, but it must be very strong.

"They are here to investigate the foreigners. They are not in as much of a hurry as the post officials. They are probably still on their way, so there is no need for us to rush to greet them."

Bai Hao took out a piece of white paper, picked up a pen and wrote on it, and finally took out his private seal and stamped it.

"This is the 200 Resentment Points I promised you before. Take this paper and show it to Xu Chang. He will understand."

Qin Yuesheng took the paper and saw the words "I transfer 200 resentments to Qin Yuesheng" written on it. Qin Yuesheng naturally accepted it with pleasure. After all, who would go against good things?

"Also, Qingyang City has been in turmoil recently, and I've received several requests for help from the public, suspected of being caused by sneaky gangs. I can't handle it all by myself. Do you have time to pick a few to help?" Bai Hao said.

Qin Yuesheng was worried about not having the almighty essence, so how could he refuse? He directly responded, "What are they?"

"Ten miles outside Qingyang City, near the Gusu River, there's a small fishing village. Lately, I've heard women singing from the center of the river every night, but I haven't seen anyone in the river.

Maoshan is a bit far away, thirty miles south of Qingyang City. According to local hunters, a monster with eyes like lanterns appeared in the mountain. It only eats the heads of wild beasts and hunters, and leaves a pile of headless corpses wherever it passes.

Jingci Town, on the Jingli Road, should be familiar to you as a Qingyang City native. It specializes in porcelain crafts. Recently, a Jingci Town craftsman reported to the authorities that several craftsmen who were working together to restore a piece of porcelain from a previous dynasty had disappeared, and they had searched the entire town in vain for their whereabouts.

Recently, reports have come in from over a dozen towns and villages near Qingyang City that children and women have mysteriously disappeared. The number of missing persons has reached over 30. Someone must be behind this."

Bai Hao listed four or five cases in a row before he paused and asked, "Which one do you want to take?"

Qin Yuesheng said, "Let's go to Jingci Town. I'm familiar with Jingli Road."

Bai Hao then took another piece of paper and wrote furiously, then handed it to Qin Yuesheng: "This is the address and name of the person who reported to the authorities. When you arrive in Jingci Town, just contact him directly."

"Master Bai, I have a question. Why did others come to Qingyang City to report the case, but the case is here with you? Doesn't Master Xun know about it?"

Bai Hao laughed and said, "Qingyang City is not a county town. Besides the government office, there are still many things that Lord Xun needs to handle. I am currently in charge of the government office for him. It is not surprising that these cases have fallen into my hands."

Qin Yuesheng suddenly realized: "Oh."

"Anything else? Things are urgent in Jingci Town. If you're free, you should hurry up and leave. I'm worried that other accidents might happen if we delay for too long."

Qin Yuesheng then told the government office the purpose of his visit, which was that someone was refining a half-broken jar in the underground of Fu'an Hutong.

"Half a jar!" Bai Hao's expression changed instantly: "To think there's such a thing!"

"The Half-Vat is based on the Human Pig. When fully developed, it has eight arms and three legs. Its danger is immeasurable. If it were to evolve to its full potential and emerge into the world, Qingyang City would be in calamity."

"Lord Bai, do you think this was done by a foreigner?" Qin Yuesheng asked.

"I'm not sure about that." Bai Hao couldn't help but sigh: "The water in Qingyang City is becoming more and more turbid."

Qingyang City is just a city in the Jiangnan area, under the jurisdiction of Yangzhou Prefecture. There are five cities like this in the Yangzhou area. Although there are ghosts and monsters in this world, Bai Hao has never seen so many strange events breaking out in a short period of time in any place as in Qingyang City.

To be honest, if incidents like those in Qingyang City happened frequently in every place, the world would have been in chaos long ago and the people would have fallen into panic.

After saying goodbye to Bai Hao, Qin Yuesheng left the Qingyang City government office. Before going to Jingci Town, he hurried to the Du family, Su family, and Lu family to explain his purpose.

Ask Du Beilun, Su Lanyin and Lu Junyi to help promote the novel.

Regardless of Qin Yuesheng's identity or friendship, these people will definitely help him with all their might, so Qin Yuesheng has no worries at all.

I gave Su Lanyin a soul-stirring bell. Seeing how excited this little girl was, I guess she will be happy for many days to come.
