Chapter 40 Why hasn't the killer come yet? [New book, please collect it! ]
Escape! Escape! Escape!
Can't look back!
Never look back!
Leopard Five's heartbeat was like thunder, almost shaking his eardrums.
It ran like a gust of wind for an unknown distance before it dared to stop for a moment and take its first breath.
Immediately, I felt a fishy and sweet taste rising up my throat.
Then there was severe pain in the internal organs and dantian.
And my right arm is so limp. My entire right arm should have been crushed into powder, right?
What I fear most is the injury to the Dantian.
It didn't dare to check, but it already had a vague feeling.
His demon pill should have cracked.
The demon core was shattered, the five internal organs were displaced, and half of the body was broken. In simple terms, it means...
die.
For a monster that has been transformed for many years, death is not a simple thing.
Especially the Leopard 5, it is flexible, powerful and fast, which is the guarantee for it to kill countless people for many years and yet always escape unscathed.
Those who can catch up with it cannot beat it, and those who can beat it cannot catch up with it.
But it didn't expect that it would die in such a ridiculous situation.
When it used all its strength to punch the little Taoist priest with the "Heaven Collapsing and Earth Sinking Purple Gold Hammer", it did not feel any tearing of flesh, and the other party did not even move at all. It realized that something was wrong.
Could it be that this young Taoist priest had a body made of diamond? Even if it was a mountain, it would tremble when I punched it, right?
What is even more unexpected is...
Just a moment later, the force he had exerted rebounded back to him with double the force!
With a loud bang, it destroyed everything in its path.
This punch brought about great terror!
Leopard Five was instantly frightened out of his wits.
It turned and ran, but as it ran, it could still feel the recoil force raging through its body.
"ah--"
After a long time, it finally stopped among the green trees, leaned against a tree, and took a few deep breaths.
Since death is inevitable, we might as well keep some energy to do something useful.
The little Taoist priest didn't chase after him at all - in fact, Leopard Five had a feeling that from beginning to end, he didn't even look at him.
Indeed, a little demon like me might be just an ant in his eyes.
If an ant provokes you, you can kill it with the recoil force alone, so why bother chasing it?
But……
Why does a human have such a horrible body?
Why did such a great god suddenly appear in this small town in the south of the Yangtze River?
If you have such great skills, why didn't you reveal them earlier?
ah……
It's really unwilling to die like this.
But there is nothing we can do.
Such an enemy is not even one it can arouse hatred for.
That’s right!
It quickly took out a palm-sized bluebird statue from its arms. It looked colorful and lifelike.
The statue held a scroll of paper in its mouth. It pulled it out, opened it, and wrote a few words in blood.
"Taoist priests are scary, don't come."
Afterwards, Leopard Five stuffed the paper scroll back into the statue's mouth and injected the last bit of his demonic power into it.
call out--
After the statue was infused with demonic power, it actually expanded in the wind and transformed into a real colorful blue bird, quickly flying into the sky.
"call."
Only after seeing the bluebird fly away did Leopard Five breathe a sigh of relief.
If his sworn brothers and sisters knew that he died here, they would definitely come back to avenge him. The final outcome would surely be total annihilation.
You must not do this!
Leopard Five stared blankly at the direction where the blue bird flew away for a long time without closing his eyes.
Now the blue bird has become a living creature.
Instead, it was Leopard Five's turn to come alive.
At the end of its life, it seemed to see itself running under the sunset that day, which was its lost youth.
…
…
Time flies, and summer is almost over.
Li Chu had lived in the government office for some time.
These days, Yuhang Town is peaceful and calm.
If someone has deep grievances, the police from the yamen will go to their home overnight to deal with the matter. They will never stop until the dispute is resolved, and justice is never late.
The ghost has not appeared again, which makes Li Chu doubt whether there is really only that one ghost causing trouble behind the scenes.
The only change was the soup brought by Gongsun Rou.
She made different kinds of soup for Li Chu every day, such as turtle, wolfberry and lily soup, ganoderma lucidum, candied dates and old duck soup, mutton and cordyceps soup...
Li Chu also had doubts, "Why does the soup every day sound like it can nourish the kidneys?"
Gongsun Rou blushed as she replied, "It never hurts to take more supplements."
Li Chu thought about it.
really.
There is another thing. He has been in the yamen these days and has not had much contact with the outside world.
I didn't know I was already famous.
In the past, he relied on repeat customers, such as Chow Tai Fook, Wang Longqi, etc. to exorcise evil spirits, and his reputation did not spread far and wide.
But this time, Chun Manlou's heroic performance of killing the infant spirit in public was seen by all the beautiful girls.
In this era, the hubs of information flow are basically large restaurants, teahouses, brothels and other places with dense crowds of people.
Among these places, brothels are the more upper-class ones.
Whenever the scholars and literati who went to the brothels to gather talked about topics involving strange cases, they would inevitably be introduced to the stories of Taoist Master Xiao Li... and his appearance by the good girls.
Soon these things spread throughout the streets and alleys of Yuhang Town.
That day, Gongsun Zhe went out to attend a banquet at a restaurant in the town, and Li Chu also accompanied him.
There is a stage in the restaurant where Mr. Shu tells stories.
The storyteller lifted the gavel and said:
"The cold night is the saddest time of the year, and the haggard man is beyond sympathy."
"I was drunk after three cups of wine, and woke up from a cold dream at five o'clock in the morning after searching for fragrance."
"You have tears in your eyes for the phoenix hairpin, but I have no chance to see the rose flower."
"The lonely heart and the moon in the small building are hard to be like a hook or a round one!"
Bang!
"Everyone, today we are not going to talk about kings, princes, generals, or talented men and beautiful women. Instead, we are going to talk about a strange man in Yuhang Town. This strange man lives in Deyun Temple on Shilipu outside the town. There is a young Taoist priest in Deyun Temple, named Li Chu."
"This Taoist Priest Li..."
In the private room, Li Chu's face turned red.
Usually, most people who listen to these ghost stories are men. But when the storyteller told the story of Li Chu, most of the people sitting in the audience were girls.
Moreover, they were obviously very familiar with Li Chu's deeds, and they would cheer in advance whenever they heard something exciting.
In addition to those who shouted "Master Li", there were also those who shouted "husband" or "I love you", and even worse, there were those who shouted "Mom loves you".
This made Li Chu feel very uneasy.
After the old gentleman finished telling the story of Li Chu, they immediately dispersed, with a very clear purpose. But in this short period of time, the reward money left behind was more than what they would normally collect in a day.
The old storyteller chuckled, and his wrinkled face revealed the joy of having glimpsed the code to wealth.
Li Chu waited until they all left before he dared to leave the private room.
Be careful.
…
The number of visitors to Deyun Temple has increased dramatically in recent days.
Yu Qian'an has been receiving guests of all ages for many days.
In the early days, the number of pilgrims suddenly increased, and he was so happy that he couldn't close his legs.
However, as the number of pilgrims increased and continued to increase, the old Taoist priest gradually could not bear it anymore.
Every evening, he would be so tired that he would pound his lower back. Holding a cup of tea soaked in wolfberries, he would look tremblingly in the direction of Yuhang Town, with tears in his eyes.
"Disciple, when will you be back?"
"Master misses you."
…
In fact, Li Chu was also puzzled in the yamen.
Why hasn’t the killer from Qingyi Tower arrived yet?
Is its plan to let Gongsun Zhe die of old age?
Um?
