Chapter 229 The Evil God's Deal 12
Qing Yanrou raised her eyebrows and asked her, "Aren't you afraid that the little guy won't trust you anymore?"
Zhang Linger paused, looking a little unhappy.
“This is not a simple matter. It will take a while to catch the thing behind it. You can play with her and come over to the door.”
"Okay."
After Qing Yanrou and Chu Tingbai left, she went to the room, dressed Zhang Yuer who was still sleeping, and took her to the playground.
When the little guy woke up in a daze, he was already in the playground.
She woke up in the amusement park she had been longing for. She was so happy that the three of them played in the amusement park until sunset.
This makes us sigh that children have so much energy.
——
It was already noon when Qing Yanrou and Chu Tingbai came out of Bai Yi's place and arrived at the Taoist sect. Not only was Taoist Jie Yun waiting for them, but also Lin Yaoyao and Tang Lin, whom they had not seen for a long time.
"Hello, Taoist Qing."
When Lin Yaoyao saw them coming, she took the initiative to greet them. It had been a long time since they last met in the ancient tomb.
Now she only has admiration for Qing Yanrou, and no longer has that arrogant look on her face.
Tang Lin received her favor last time. Thinking that the little girl whom he looked down upon at first actually saved him, he felt very complicated.
Especially since she is still a highly respected figure in the entire Xuanmen, he felt extremely uncomfortable and just nodded to the two of them as a greeting.
"What's going on?"
Qing Yanrou didn't care about the change in their attitudes. She only cared about the thing that was making trouble behind the scenes.
"It was our colleagues from the Public Security Department who discovered the strange deaths of these three people and notified us. We were at a loss for what to do, so we came to the Dao Sect for help."
"Where's the figurine?"
"here."
When Lin Yaoyao heard her question, she quickly took out three identical, exquisitely crafted figurines from her bag and handed them to her.
Qing Yanrou took out the two small statues she had with her, a total of five.
"This? Could it be that two other victims are also dead?"
Lin Yaoyao frowned as she looked at what she took out. There were only three cases recorded so far, and now with these two cases, there were five in total. It seemed that the situation was becoming more and more serious.
"These two people didn't die, but one of them lost a year of life, and the other one had less than five years to live."
"What's going on here? Is the wish you mentioned on the phone related to this?"
The families of the three people who died here don’t know why they died, so of course they don’t know whether they made any wishes before they died.
"Aside from the little figures on their bodies, are there any other similarities between these three deceased people?"
Qing Yanrou did not answer his question immediately, but continued to look at Lin Yaoyao and asked.
"Oh, and also, they were burning incense and offering sacrifices at home some time ago. Because the three of them have this common characteristic, our colleagues asked us to take over this case in the first place."
"Um."
Qing Yanrou nodded at first to show that she understood. Seeing Jie Yun looking at her with a thirst for knowledge, she curled her lips slightly and continued to tell them the speculation she had previously told Zhang Linger and the others.
"Oh, by the way, we did a fishing trip last night and only managed to hook that thing out, but it was very alert and ran away. We tried again before coming to the gate, but failed to lure it out."
"So what should we do now?"
This is a cunning and cautious evil creature. How can they find it and catch it now?
"If it doesn't come out now, then we'll go find it ourselves."
Everyone was confused and had no idea how to find it.
Qing Yanrou didn't say anything, but took out the token given to her by Judge Cui. When she pressed the token, the temperature in the room suddenly dropped, and the netherworld aura coming from it frightened the other three.
Lin Yaoyao and Tang Lin had heard many rumors about her relationship with the underworld from friends and colleagues in the past few months. This was the first time they had seen anything related to the underworld, and they couldn't help but pay more attention to her every move.
Qing Yanrou concentrated on injecting spiritual energy into the body. After a while, a ghost gate opened in front of her, and pure and rich ghost energy continued to come out from the ghost gate.
Seeing the situation, Xie Yun quickly took a protective position to isolate himself from the aura. Otherwise, if the disciples outside were to sense such a strong ghostly aura, they would be terrified.
After a while, Judge Cui, wearing a well-tailored suit, appeared at the same place. Taoist Jie Yun remembered that the last time he saw Judge Cui, he was still wearing an official robe. How come he looked so fashionable today?
It was the first time for Lin Yaoyao and Tang Lin to see Judge Cui. They were both shocked. Could it be that the underworld was so advanced?
The ghost officials they had seen before were all wearing long robes, but they didn’t expect Judge Cui to be so fashionable.
This gave them a lot of insights.
"Rou girl, what's wrong?"
His friendly question scared Lin Yaoyao and the other person who were meeting him for the first time, but his aura was so terrifying that they dared not look at him directly. They stood aside and listened to them talking in a strange manner.
The only people who felt comfortable in the room were Qing Yanrou and Judge Cui.
"I'd like to ask you for a favor."
"you say."
It had been a long time since she asked him for help, and Judge Cui looked at her with a gentle expression.
"Recently, an evil creature has been causing trouble in the Yang Realm. It has stolen the lifespans of many people and even caused the deaths of three people. Are you aware of this?"
"Know a little."
"Then do you know the evil behind this?"
"Ahem, didn't you ask the underworld to give you some hints at the appropriate time last time? So when I realized something was amiss, I made a special effort to investigate."
After Cui Jue finished speaking, he looked at her expectantly, hoping to get some reaction from her, and Qing Yanrou did not disappoint him.
"Thank you. I'll ask him to help you find a way to connect the underworld to the internet."
Chu Tingbai was suddenly called, and he nodded to Cui Jue to indicate his agreement.
Cui Jue's eyes lit up, and then his tone became much lighter. "That thing claims to be a god, but it's actually just a spider spirit that has become a spirit. However, it does have some abilities. It can tear through space."
"But its cultivation is still a little shallow. It can't tear through space at will and go wherever it wants. With its current strength, it can only move freely within a radius of 30 kilometers."
"No more?"
Seeing the look of praise on his face after he finished speaking, Qing Yanrou couldn't help but ask back.
"No, it appeared at your place last night. Just look for it along the range I just mentioned."
"Okay, thank you."
Qing Yanrou looked at Judge Cui, who had finished speaking but was still standing there, and looked at him with some confusion.
"Um, when can we get the internet to the underworld?"
The reason why he hasn't left yet is that he wants to get definite news.
"After this is over."
"Oh, it's probably located in the west of Beijing City."
