When Lan Xi arrived at the river, it was already five or six in the afternoon.
It has been a year since the last child drowned and went missing.
It is not an easy task to capture the remaining breath of the evil cultivator by the river.
Even Lan Xi had to use several Yin Gathering Talismans to gather all the Yin energy within a radius of several miles.
Because of the wide gathering area, these negative energies are more mixed.
There may be negative energy from elderly people who died in the nearby villages.
It could also be the unwillingness of someone who died of illness before dying.
Or perhaps it was the resentment left behind by some people who drowned in the river.
Among the mixed Yin Qi, Lan Xi took a lot of effort to classify the different auras in this group of Yin Qi one by one.
Finally, she found a faint trace of evil aura!
Picking out this strand of Yin Qi, Lan Xi waved his hand and dispersed the other mixed Yin Qi floating in the void in front of him.
Then, she took out a simple-looking sandalwood compass from her small gray cloth bag.
She held the evil cultivator's Yin Qi with her fingertips and placed it on the compass.
The next second, the evil cultivator's Yin Qi was like a wisp of black and gray flickering flame, trembling and floating in the center of the compass.
Then it shifts in one direction.
With this breath of breath guiding her, Lan Xi knew that it was only a matter of time before she would find the whereabouts of the evil cultivator.
After finding what he wanted today, Lan Xi was already planning to leave.
But before she took a few steps, she saw several villagers from a nearby village walking towards the river with piles of paper money in their hands.
When the villagers saw Lan Xi, a stranger, appear by the river, someone casually asked, "Little girl, are you here to burn paper money for your family as well?"
As he spoke, the other party looked at her empty hands.
"Little girl, don't you know where to sell paper money nearby?" a villager asked.
Other villagers nearby immediately responded, "It's at the tobacco shop at the entrance of the village. Just tell the owner and he will take out the paper money from the back."
Listening to the villagers' kind advice, Lan Xi did not explain that she was not there to burn paper for the dead.
But seeing someone nearby, she casually asked, "Has anyone else drowned or gone missing in the past year?"
A middle-aged woman in her forties shook her head.
"This little ditch doesn't look deep, but people drown there every year. However, last summer, the bodies of those who drowned were all found. Unlike in previous years, when the bodies of those who drowned disappeared along with them!"
Other villagers nearby chimed in, "I just can't understand it. How could someone drown in such a shallow river?"
"This summer, a relative of mine actually tried it himself! The deepest part of the river was only up to his waist, but that little bit of water is enough to drown someone!"
Listening to what the villagers said, Lan Xi was a little confused.
If someone drowns in shallow water, it can only be because there is a water ghost in the river looking for someone to take his life.
But when she was collecting the Yin energy nearby, she didn't notice there was a water ghost in the river.
Could it be that the water ghost left the river?
But under normal circumstances, how could a water ghost leave on its own?
All these clues made Lan Xi suspect that the water ghost might have the ability to hide from his perception.
Or the water ghost has been taken away -
Lan Xi didn't think that with her keen perception of Yin energy, ordinary water ghosts could hide to the point where even she couldn't find them.
Therefore, the missing water ghost is most likely related to the evil cultivator!
The villagers saw the young girl standing there in a daze, and they thought she was sad because she had heard them say that someone had drowned in the river, and she was thinking about her dead relatives...
So the few villagers who came to burn paper sighed, said nothing more, and walked towards the river one by one.
Lan Xi didn't know what the villagers were thinking. She was still thinking about the water ghost.
Once we find the evil cultivator who was lurking nearby a year ago, perhaps we can know the whereabouts of the water ghost in the river~!
Thinking of this, Lan Xi picked up the compass again and began to deduce the city where the evil cultivator was located based on the direction in which the Yin Qi was shifted.
The sun was setting, and before dark, Lan Xi's calculations finally yielded some results.
What surprised her was that the evil cultivator actually went to Yuncheng?!
Thinking about the damage to the defensive magic weapon over there not long ago...
Could it be that the evil cultivator that Lu Sichen encountered was the target she was looking for - the 'High Immortal'?
Lan Xi frowned slightly, and then she decided to go to Yuncheng herself to see what was going on!
As for now it’s dark and there are no buses going to the city?
With the 'Evil Spirit Cat' as a means of transportation, it is not easy to attract other people's attention at night, which is suitable for cycling -
…
When Lan Xi went to Yuncheng overnight, the evil cultivator who was knocked unconscious by Lu Sichen had already been detained by the personnel of Yuncheng Special Event Management Department.
The existence of evil cultivators is extremely dangerous. Even if there is a person in charge of the special event management department, we dare not be careless.
Therefore, in addition to being tied up with ropes painted with runes, the evil cultivator was also injected with anesthetics.
To ensure that this evil cultivator can be smoothly transported to the Shangjing Monks Association.
As for what to do after it is transported there, that is the responsibility of the Monastic Association.
…
At the Lu family, Lu Sichen received a deposit message of four million on his mobile phone.
He had not expected that the evil cultivator who came to his door was actually a wanted person.
As for the four million, it is the reward for capturing the evil cultivator.
Although this amount of money was not much for Lu Sichen, it was the first time he earned money through cultivation.
It’s quite special when I think about it.
Shortly after Lu Sichen received the bonus, the phone rang next to him.
Lu Sichen didn't expect to receive a call from Lan Xi at this time.
He thought the girl had seen the online gossip, so she came to him to ask why he didn't give an explanation.
As soon as the call was connected, Lu Sichen heard Lan Xi ask, "Brother Lu, have you encountered an evil cultivator?"
Although he didn't know how the little girl knew about this, Lu Sichen answered truthfully.
"yes."
"You should be okay, right?" Lan Xi asked.
"It's okay, but the white jade bracelet you gave me broke again, and the ring also broke into several pieces."
This was the result of the protective magic weapon spontaneously resisting the attack after he encountered danger and was eventually destroyed.
Lu Sichen suddenly thought of the reason why the little girl knew that he had encountered an evil cultivator.
Maybe it was because the magic weapon was damaged, she should have sensed it.
Although Lan Xi had known for a long time that "Xiang Pai Bo" was fine, she was completely relieved only after hearing it with her own ears.
Only then did she ask about the whereabouts of the evil cultivator and learned that Lu Sichen had received a reward of four million for capturing the evil cultivator.
This time, it turned out to be correct!
That evil cultivator 'Gao Xianren' came to Yuncheng just to look for Lu Sichen!
