Snowy Night Murder

Chapter 234 Snowy Night Murder

The old man looked through it and nodded: "I have seen them. They came to me to ask for directions."

Several other Taoists in the village felt fear in their hearts. The old man was standing in front of them, but they could not see his face.

Even at such a close distance, the old man's facial features seemed extremely blurry. Even if they used various divine eyes, they could not see the old man clearly. It was as if he was not a living person.

The Demon King Dutian was also silent and dared not say a word.

This old man is the Yinchai of the Netherworld and a deity under the command of Tubo. Such Yinchai can be encountered in almost every world. These Yinchai are responsible for different things. Some are responsible for guiding wandering souls to the world of the living, some are responsible for extraditing the dead, and some are responsible for capturing those powerful people who try to escape death.

They are in charge of the order of the underworld and the dead in the world of the living.

A world-destroying war once took place in the Dutian world, which almost completely destroyed the world. At that time, the fields were filled with corpses.

The sun in the Dutian world has gone out, and almost everywhere is dark, but there are countless lights in the endless darkness, and under each light there is an old man who comes to guide the wandering souls.

At that time, the Demon King of Dutian survived the war and became the lord of Dutian. Dutian was still young and full of enthusiasm. When he saw these ghost messengers coming to extradite the souls of the people of Dutian, he immediately rushed forward to kill them. However, he was seriously injured and his soul was almost taken away.

When the Demon King Dutian saw these evil officials, he was still a little frightened and didn't dare to say much.

Qin Mu said respectfully, "May I ask where they went?"

The old man raised his hand and pointed into the darkness: "Worry-free Township. But they can't find it, they will just be trapped. There are ghosts ready to take their souls."

The sound of splashing water came from the riverside. Wet men and women emerged from the water and walked slowly towards the village, their faces grim and without a word.

A paper boat flew out of the village, and the men and women boarded the paper boat, which slowly sailed into the darkness.

The other Taoists in the village were all shocked and hurried to move away from the old man. At this time, they noticed that their two companions did not move, but sat stiffly in the same place.

And on the paper boat that had sailed into the darkness, their figures were vaguely visible.

The remaining three Taoists were horrified. Long Jiaonan, who was also dressed as a Taoist, felt his legs trembling and wanted to escape, but he dared not to because it was dark outside the village.

"Keep your head down and don't look at that old man!"

One of the older Taoists came to his senses and said quickly, "He is a ghost messenger! If your eyes meet his, your soul will be taken away!"

Long Jiaonan and another young Taoist priest lowered their heads quickly, not daring to look at the old man.

Qin Mu's tone became more respectful: "May I ask Brother Dao for your advice, where exactly is Wuyou Township?"

The old man still pointed his finger at the darkness and said nothing more.

Qin Mu frowned. The direction the old man pointed to was the world of the dead in the darkness, which was another underworld, where Fengdu was located.

That time, he and the village chief entered the world of the dead and almost didn't come back alive!

"That is not Worry-Free Township. May I ask where the real Worry-Free Township is?"

The old man shook his head, still pointing at the darkness.

Qin Mu asked again, but the old man stopped talking.

Qin Mu frowned. He simply didn't have the strength to pass through the darkness. Besides, except for the village chief, it would be difficult for other people in the village to pass through the darkness, unless they could carry the stone statue on their backs.

He became quiet. There was no other sound in the village except Long Qilin's snoring. He fell asleep.

After a long time, no body appeared in the river. The old man stood up, got on the boat and disappeared into the darkness.

Everything in the village returned to normal, and it was not as cold as before. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. There were only three Taoists left in the village, and Qin Mu also had the Demon King Dutian and Long Qilin on his side.

The dilapidated stone statue emitted a faint light, forcing back the surrounding darkness. Qin Mu felt something in his heart. He looked at the female Taoist priest, smiled slightly, and said to the other two Taoist priests: "You two Taoist priests look unfamiliar. Where is the fairyland?"

The older of the two Taoists said, "Since the Heavenly Demon Sect Leader has asked me, I dare not hide anything. My master and I are from the Xingdou Tianluo Sect. I am Taoist Chiyun, and this is Shao Yuan, the bad disciple. The two men just now were also my disciples, but unfortunately they were unlucky and their souls were seduced when they looked into the eyes of the Yin Messenger."

Qin Mu stood in awe and said, "So you are a master from Xingdou Tianluo Sect. The leader of Xingdou Tianluo Sect is called Luo Xinghe, right?"

"Lord Luo was our master, and he has passed away."

Taoist Chi Yun said sadly: "That day, the Heavenly Demon Cult took the city mountain away from Daxiang City, and my master died at the hands of State Master Yankang."

"I see." Qin Mu nodded.

The cold wind howled in the darkness outside the village, and the villagers fell silent again. The two Taoists took off the sword cases on their backs and wiped them carefully. Long Jiaonan smiled and gently touched the earrings under his earlobes.

Qin Mu reached his hand into the Taotie bag but did not take it out, with a smile still on his face.

A few crystal snowflakes floated across the sky and landed among the crowd.

This night was a little uneasy, and it started snowing without us noticing.

Demon King Dutian noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange, and quietly kicked Long Qilin. Long Qilin woke up, looked around, found nothing unusual, and went back to sleep.

The Demon King of Dutian was furious: "What's the point of keeping this lazy fellow?"

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and soon everyone was covered in white snow.

At this moment, a Buddhist chant was heard suddenly, and everyone's heart was startled. This Buddhist chant came from the darkness. Qin Mu pulled his hand out of the Taotie bag, Long Jiaonan also put down his hand that was touching the earrings, and the two Taoists also put down the sword box.

There was light coming from the darkness, and a fat monk with big ears came out of the darkness, looked around, put his hands together and said, "Dear donors, I am sorry to bother you."

Qin Mu did not dare to neglect him, and quickly stood up and said, "We are just passers-by, so we are not a bother."

A sturdy man walked out from behind the big monk. He was covered in black hair and lumps of flesh. He was six feet tall and had a strong demonic aura, like a violent ape in human form. He held a Zen stick in his hand and said in surprise, "Little one!"

Qin Mu was also inexplicably surprised. He looked at the Zen staff and recognized it as the Xiqi Luo that he had given to the demon ape. He cried out in surprise, "Big guy! Why are you here? Have you transformed?"

The demon-like ape was surprised and delighted. He stepped forward to recognize Qin Mu and pointed at the fat monk and said, "Bald, little one!"

The demon ape pointed at himself again and said in a muffled voice: "Big, bald, teach. Bald, small, small!"

Qin Mu was confused and asked tentatively: "You mean, this monk is from the Little Leiyin Temple? The monk from the Big Leiyin Temple found you and taught you skills, and then this monk from the Little Leiyin Temple found you again, told you that he was from the Little Leiyin Temple, and then took you back to the Little Leiyin Temple?"

The demon ape nodded repeatedly.

Everyone in the village was stunned. Demon King Dutian murmured, "How did you understand the meaning of what he said..."

Qin Mu felt awe in his heart. This fat-headed and big-eared monk was able to lead the demon ape in walking in the darkness. He must be at the same level as the old Tathagata and the old village chief!

A god-like existence.

Long Jiaonan, Taoist Chi Yun and Taoist Shao Yuan were terrified and retreated quietly, but if they retreated further they would find themselves in the darkness outside the village.

The three of them secretly groaned. The Yin Messenger just now and the Little Tathagata of the Little Leiyin Temple now were all people Qin Mu knew. They were afraid that Qin Mu could kill them with just one word!

Little did he know that Qin Mu was also extremely nervous. The Little Tathagata of the Little Leiyin Temple was a demon cultivator, a great monster and demon king who had defected from the Big Leiyin Temple!

His comprehension of Buddhism went to extremes, and he once used a bronze Buddha to suppress the centipede fairy Qing'er in the oasis in the middle of Yongjiang River. However, Qin Mu used the power of the ice tide to knock down the bronze Buddha and rescued Xian Qing'er!

The fat-headed and big-eared little Tathagata looked like a living Buddha. He was dignified and looked at Qin Mu and said, "So you are the little donor. You ruined my merits, do you remember?"

The eyes of Long Jiaonan, Chi Yun Taoist and others lit up, and some hope arose in their hearts.

Qin Mu said: "Remember."

The demon ape stood in front of Qin Mu and shouted, "Bald, brother!"

Xiao Ru came to see him, shook her head and said, "Don't worry, if my enemy comes, I won't kill him. My enemy has arrived, you stay here, I will go meet him."

As soon as he finished speaking, a laugh came from the darkness: "Little Tathagata, your fight in the middle of the night is quite interesting."

In the snowy night, an old man wearing a bamboo hat walked into the dilapidated village from the darkness. Qin Mu was slightly startled and said in a lost voice: "Master Ling Jing!"

The old man in the bamboo hat lifted his hat and looked at him, smiling: "So you are the disciple of the old sword god. You even borrowed two Fengdu coins from me. Do you have the money to pay it back now?"

Qin Mu was embarrassed and said honestly: "The two Fengdu coins have been spent."

Long Jiaonan, Taoist Chi Yun and Taoist Shao Yuan's faces froze. Here came another extremely powerful person who could walk in the dark, but he was also an acquaintance of Qin Mu, the leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect!

How many god-like beings does this demon leader know?

"It's not too late to pay it back when you have money later."

Taoist Ling Jing took off his bamboo hat and stood it against the wall. He looked at Little Tathagata and said leisurely, "It's snowing heavily and dark, it's a good time to kill people. Little Tathagata, let's go fight in the distance."

"good."

The two extremely powerful men walked into the darkness one after another, and the village became quiet again. Qin Mu looked at Long Jiaonan and others opposite him, and Long Jiaonan and others were also looking at him, and none of them moved.

The demon ape was puzzled when he saw this. There were waves of terrifying tremors coming from afar, and then the snow in the sky turned into drizzle and fell. It was the magical power of Taoist Ling Jing and Little Tathagata that melted the heavy snow in the dark night and turned the snow into rain.

Sometimes snowflakes fell from the sky, and sometimes it turned into drizzle. After an unknown amount of time, suddenly a rooster crowed in the darkness, and the darkness was rapidly rushing to the west. At this moment, Qin Mu, Long Jiaonan, Dutian Demon King and others suddenly jumped up, and almost at the same moment they rushed towards each other and killed them at the same time!

The dragon unicorn roared, shook its body, and revealed its true form. Flames were blazing all over its body. It raised its front paws and held down the head of the red snake that was rushing towards it, smashing the snake's head into the ground. Qin Mu rushed to Taoist Chi Yun in an instant, and Taoist Chi Yun's countless flying swords were all blocked by the Demon King Dutian who was standing behind Qin Mu.

The demon ape leaped up from behind the Demon King Dutian and smashed Chiyun Taoist's forehead hard.

laugh--

A beam of sword light pierced through Taoist Chi Yun's chest. Qin Mu raised his finger and the sword light slashed across the neck of Taoist Shao Yuan, who had not yet recovered.

Long Jiaonan grabbed the big snake's tail, the red snake shrank, and the woman flew into the air and disappeared in a flash.
