Chapter 369: Lure the Snake Out of Its Hole

"Fellow Taoist, I'm sorry. Captain Yuan went to clean up the bandits yesterday and hasn't come back yet!"

As the staff of the city lord's palace who received Qin Yu was explaining, the door was pushed open with a bang, and a hearty voice came from outside the door.

"Little friend Qin Yu, what problem did you encounter?"

Qin Yu turned around and found that the person coming was none other than Captain Yuan.

"Captain Yuan, I really have something to talk to you about!"

"Then go sit in the room first, and I'll go change clothes first."

There were a lot of blood stains on Captain Yuan's clothes, and he had a tired look on his face.

It looked like he had gone through a battle that was not easy.

Soon!

Captain Yuan came indoors and poured Qin Yu and Qin Yu a cup of tea.

"Captain Yuan, thank you for your hard work!"

Captain Yuan chuckled and said, "I'm used to it. Do you have a way to deal with the resentful spirits?"

"Yes. Logically speaking, Captain Yuan has worked hard all night, so he shouldn't ask Captain Yuan to help anymore, but things have changed a bit, and the two of us alone can't handle it!"

"It doesn't matter. It's my responsibility to protect the safety of this place. You are the one who comes to help. If you want to thank me, I have to say it!"

Qin Yu smiled and said: "Don't say that, this is also our mission."

"Captain Yuan, let me tell you about the current situation first!"

"Okay, please speak!"

Qin Yu said: "Last night, the two of us tried to lure out the resentful spirits and trapped them in the formation..."

"Can you draw out the resentful spirits?" Captain Yuan asked in surprise.

The biggest problem in dealing with the resentful spirit is not to find the resentful spirit. If the resentful spirit can be drawn out, it will only be a matter of a few punches for Captain Yuan.

"It can be drawn out naturally!"

"How did you do it?" Captain Yuan asked curiously.

Qin Yu said with a smile: "Snakes have their own ways, and rats have their own ways. Since we have accepted this mission, we naturally have our own methods!"

Captain Yuan realized that he had talked too much, "I'm sorry, I asked too much, little friend, please continue talking."

"Originally, we were fully prepared, but just when we were killing the resentful spirits, two men in white robes suddenly attacked us."

Qin Yu paused here, wanting to see if Captain Yuan had dealt with the man in white robe before.

But Captain Yuan's reaction was no different from anyone else's.

"Man in white robe, what man in white robe?"

"I don't know the other party's identity, but I guess he is from the Demon Cult."

"A member of the Demon Cult?" Captain Yuan's voice rose a little higher, and Qin Yu felt that the other party seemed a little excited.

"Fellow Daoist Qin Yu, I wonder what the cultivation level of the demon sect is like?"

"I have fought against each other, and both of them should be at the foundation-building level."

"Foundation-building perfection!"

Captain Yuan slapped the table and laughed.

"Wow! Hahahahahaha..."

"Great, I finally met someone from the Demon Cult, hahahahaha..."

The corner of Qin Yu's mouth twitched, and he cursed in his heart: 'I know that there is no normal person in this world except me! ’

"Sorry, sorry, I'm too excited!" Captain Yuan tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth and make himself look more serious.

‘No, you are so excited! ’

‘I am as happy to see the Demon Cult as I am to see my colleagues. ’

‘If you like the Demon Cult so much, I’ll let Dream Dog capture a Demon Cult stronghold and place it next to Gucheng! ’

Qin Yu muttered a few words in his heart, but he just complained.

With Qin Yu's wisdom, he could naturally guess what Captain Yuan was happy about.

Li Zhengtong looked confused and asked directly: "Captain Yuan, why are you so happy? Are you from the Demon Sect?"

"Little friend, don't talk nonsense, the reason why I am happy is because I am so happy, hahahahaha..."

Li Zhengtong: "..."

"Sorry, I couldn't help it!" Captain Yuan quickly stopped smiling and said that he was professional in this area.

"What I'm happy about is that I finally got the credit for this incredible feat, hahahaha!"

"Captain Yuan, don't be too happy first. You have to wait until you catch the other party to get any credit."

"Young friend Qin is right, please tell me about the credit first... No, what did the people from the Demon Cult do here."

"They broke the formation and used a magic weapon similar to the Qiankun Bag to capture the resentful spirits."

Captain Yuan asked hurriedly: "The other party captured the resentful spirit?"

"No, just when the opponent almost succeeded, the second resentful spirit took action and saved the severely injured one!"

"Is there a second resentful spirit?" Captain Yuan was even more excited this time and almost jumped up from his stool.

"Are you sure there is a second resentful spirit in the lake?"

"Absolutely true!"

"And I also speculate that the formation of these two resentful spirits is probably related to the two white-robed men!"

Captain Yuan took a deep breath.

Yesterday he thought his only enemy was a wraith.

As a result, one night passed, and his enemies turned into two white-robed men who were suspected of being a demon cult, and two resentful spirits.

This intensity is a bit strong!

However, the greater the intensity, the greater the credit!

If we could deal with two resentful spirits and capture two members of the Demon Cult at once, that would be a great achievement!

Captain Yuan suddenly became energized.

"Little friend, you came to me, but do you have a way to deal with them?"

"Of course there is!"

"I will lure out the evil spirits again tonight, and Captain Yuan, you guys hide nearby. Once the white-robed man appears, take him down immediately. If he doesn't show up, we can get rid of the evil spirits, and it won't be a loss!"

Captain Yuan: "Good!"

......

Qin Yu returned to the temporary residence of Santian Village. The deputy village chief and others had already selected the "bait" for tonight.

This is a young man in his early twenties, not very tall, a little thin, and looks shifty, not like a good person!

"What's your name?"

"I...I...I'm Zhang Er!"

Zhang Er seemed a little too nervous. He trembled in front of Qin Yu and couldn't speak clearly.

"Do you have a grudge against that family of three?"

Zhang Er glanced at the head of the Zhang family furtively, but was glared back by the head of the Zhang family.

"My Lord, I'm asking you a question. What did you take?"

"I... I've never gotten along with them. I even had a fight with them before!"

Qin Yu's face suddenly changed. The spiritual energy around him burst out instantly. A pressure comparable to that of a big boss directly attacked Zhang Er.

Zhang Er's face turned pale instantly.

"Tell me, do you have anything to do with the death of that family of three?"

Zhang Er's face turned pale and he shook his head repeatedly.

Qin Yu restrained his breath: "Then you can go with me tonight!"

Zhang Er's body shook more violently.

"Don't worry, we will protect you when the time comes."

"Thank... Thank you, my Lord. You must protect me!"

Late at night!

Silence!

Darkness!

Zhang Er stood trembling in the open space by the lake. He was trembling nervously, his legs were shaking, and even two hot streams flowed out of his trouser legs.

Qin Yu arranged a formation to deal with the resentful spirits around Zhang Er, and also arranged a formation to deal with the cultivators.

No matter which side appears, Qin Yu and others have the home advantage.

"Do you suspect that the family of three was killed by the villagers of Santian Village?" Captain Yuan asked curiously.

Qin Yu sighed, "I had this guess at the beginning, but now I am more inclined to believe that it was the Demon Cult."

"However, the death of the village chief of Santian Village can be confirmed that he is definitely related to the appearance of the vengeful spirit."

Captain Yuan was silent for a moment and said softly: "Qin Xiaoyou, have you ever thought of a possibility?"

"Then the village chief was not killed by the vengeful spirit, but was killed by the people of the Demon Cult?"

Qin Yu's pupils suddenly shrank.

'Yes, no one has ever confirmed that the village chief was killed by the vengeful spirit. This is just based on the oral description of the villagers and the appearance of the vengeful spirit nearby, but there has never been any evidence to prove that the village chief was killed by the vengeful spirit. '

'If the village chief was killed by the Demon Cult, the purpose is to make the people who come to investigate the case suspect the villagers, so as to hide the traces of the Demon Cult. '

'It is also possible that the village chief discovered something and was silenced by the Demon Cult. '

'Sure enough, not all villains are fools like Li Zhengtong. Don't underestimate anyone. '

Qin Yu stared at Zhang Er in the dark with burning eyes.

"Are you sure this can lead to the vengeful spirit?" Captain Yuan asked in a low voice.

In order to prevent the vengeful spirit from appearing, Qin Yu and Captain Yuan and others hid not far away and restrained their breath.

Hearing Captain Yuan's question, Qin Yu said helplessly: "I dare not guarantee it, but if this Zhang Er is really the target of revenge by the vengeful spirit, then the probability of leading him out is still quite high."

"According to the information, the wisdom of the vengeful spirit is not high, and the greatest obsession is revenge."

"If you see the enemy nearby, and there is no strong breath around, you will definitely be unable to resist the desire for revenge."

"With their wisdom, they will definitely not see that this is a trap."

"If the vengeful spirit is really led out, then this Zhang Er is definitely related to the cause of death of the family of three."

Here's the words!

A gust of cold wind blew!

The calm lake surface was like a breeze blowing, shaking ripples.

(Although it's only one chapter, the number of words is quite a lot! One word can be counted as two chapters.)
