"Okay." Zhao Si just took out his mobile phone and saw an incoming call.
??【Brother Yi】
"Hey, Brother Yi... the company hasn't figured it out yet, but we can be sure that it was the work of evil spirits. Many people have had their souls taken away for no apparent reason... OK, OK."
??After hanging up the phone, the sadness on Zhao Si’s face disappeared.
??He turned to Lu Haochu and said, "Old Lu, let's go to the cafeteria and have a good meal later. Brother Yi said he will solve this matter."
??After coming back to his senses, he felt that his nervousness just now was unnecessary. Although things were very strange, as long as Brother Yi was there, nothing would happen even if the sky fell.
??Is there anything that the immortals in the world cannot solve?
——
??Li Yi hung up the phone and fell into deep thought.
"He lost a wisp of his soul for no apparent reason. It seems to be an extremely advanced spiritual power."
??Things turned out to be just as he had guessed, the sleeping sickness was indeed caused by supernatural power. And the murderer hiding in the dark was very clever and his actions were extremely sinister.
According to Xiao Si's description, people with sleeping sickness are spread across half of the state, and the farthest distance spans thousands of miles. It often occurs in densely populated areas, and once there is a case, similar symptoms will continue to appear in the area.
??The transmission route has not been identified so far, and the patients with coma and those who have been in contact with them were isolated immediately, but the spread of coma has not been stopped. This is an irregular and random symptom.
??This is a spiritual and mental disease, and modern prevention technology is completely useless.
??Secondly, coma does not extract the entire soul of a person, but only takes away a strand of it. This is its cleverness and insidiousness.
??It is not an easy task to extract a person's spirit and soul. It is more difficult than twisting off a person's head. If you only take away a strand of it, it is as difficult as pulling out a hair.
??For those with great supernatural powers, it is easy to seize people's souls. Seizing the souls of millions of people is as easy as moving mountains and chasing the moon.
??At the same time, it can also greatly consume social resources, cause unrest and panic, and make the company and Shangqing Palace exhausted. This is just like letting deserters go in ancient times and in modern wars, crippling soldiers instead of killing them.
??The government cannot just leave these people alone and will inevitably allocate a large amount of manpower and resources to take care of them.
??What kind of Taoist magic can achieve such an effect?
??All the magical powers and the people he killed flashed through Li Yi’s mind.
??Among these people, there are many cultivators who are good at spirits and souls. Ghost cultivators are best at this method. His own Yang Shen was also created based on ghost cultivators.
??Soon he thought of a magic technique, which could be said to be the cornerstone for ghost cultivators to enter the realm of transformation. Without it, ghost cultivators would only be at the Nascent Soul stage at best, and even the Golden Core stage would be the end.
"Heavenly Heart Jue."
??According to my birth date, it was created by a demon king about 3,000 years ago. This person was extremely talented and rose from a lonely ghost to a demon king.
The foundation of his life is the Heavenly Heart Art, which allows him to devour the souls of others without restraint and quickly grow his own soul. The most subtle thing about it is that he can abandon distracting thoughts, maintain his true self, and not be polluted by others.
??This is no less than the Star-Absorbing Technique in martial arts novels. As long as you have enough spirits and souls, you can quickly become a master.
??Li Yi raised his head and gazed into the distance, a glimmer of light flashing in his calm eyes.
??There was an unusual color in his sight, scattered points of light in the village, and the city in the distance was as bright as a starry sky.
??There are too many people, and there is no god like the City God. The slightest provocation will cause a huge storm.
??Withdrawing his gaze, Li Yi was not in a hurry to leave, but instead found a brush and a few pieces of red paper left over from the festival for writing couplets.
??Seeing this, Father Li asked curiously, "You want to write a couplet?"
??As a former teacher, he also has an interest in writing calligraphy.
Li Yi answered truthfully: "Writing it can ward off evil spirits and cure sleeping sickness."
??He had to make adequate preparations before going to put out the fire in case his house was robbed. He had no interest in putting his parents in danger.
??Saying this, Li Yi rolled up his sleeves and wrote two lines of words.
??First couplet: Auspicious dragons and auspicious clouds cover the lucky place.
??Second line: The tiger sits on the blessed mountain and the blessed wind blows all over the blessed house.
??The horizontal banner reads: Divine light shines everywhere.
??Just by writing these words, Li Yi broke out in sweat and felt a little exhausted.
Father Li took a closer look and was immediately amazed. He picked up the couplet and read it over and over again, muttering to himself, "Good words, good words, good words!"
"Dad, help me put it on."
??A few minutes later, Father Li pasted the couplet on the door frame, then moved a small stool and sat in front of the door, looking at it while copying it on the ground with a brush dipped in water.
??Behind him, the shadow of a tiger stepped into the yard. A green dragon was hovering above the house. If one could open his eyes, one could see that the small bungalow on the hillside was emitting golden light.
??The next day, Li Yi went down the mountain carrying a wooden sword. A black car had been waiting for him below for a long time.
??Xie Yunan bowed slightly and opened the car door for him.
"Mr. Li, the seniors from Shangqing Palace, Huayang Temple, and Bailian Sect are waiting for you at Shangqing Palace. We have prepared a direct flight for you."
??Li Yi sat in the back seat, holding the wooden sword, raised his eyes slightly and said: "I'm not interested in meeting them, let's go to Yucheng first."
??Xie Yunan was very confused in her heart, but as a military supervisor, she still loyally carried out orders, because the order from her superiors was to try her best to satisfy Li Yi.
??The vehicle started, and through the rearview mirror she could see Li Yi in the back seat closing his eyes and breathing slightly.
??It is hard to imagine that such a quiet man could have such a suffocating murderous aura that day.
??Since Li Yi did not tell him the specific location, Xie Yunan could only drive into the city and wander around.
??"parking."
??A voice as calm as a lake came from behind. Xie Yunan quickly slowed down and stopped by the roadside.
??Before she could ask, a dazzling white light suddenly shone in from outside, followed by a deafening thunder that resounded through the sky.
??Boom!!!
??Xie Yunan hugged her shoulders unconsciously, a sense of fear extended from her soul. The sudden thunder made her terrified. This was not ordinary thunder.
??Li Yi leaned back in his chair and said calmly, "Go to the west of the city, next one."
??What next? What did he just do?
On a sidewalk a few miles away from the car, a group of people were taking pictures with their mobile phones, and in the center of them was a charred body.
??There is one more update later, and two more will be added tomorrow morning. Please forgive me.
