Travel through space and help the prince’s husband in construction

The brothers knew that the bounties offered by the government offices in the surrounding areas were getting higher and higher. Because, as more and more young men and women became abnormal, the pressure on the government was also increasing.

What is even more frightening is that people who have such strange behaviors are no longer limited to the young men and women of wealthy families. There are also old men and women in wealthy families who do not want to live, and they also engage in various suicidal behaviors.

The men took turns watching over them, fearing that if they failed to keep an eye on the rich family's elderly and children, they would commit suicide. This caused great trouble to the rich families in Yanzhi Country.

The storytellers outside also have a lot more content to tell their stories.

However, the wealthy gentlemen no longer come to listen to the stories. Instead, those who are a little better off come to the teahouse to order a cup of tea and listen to the storyteller interpret these strange events that happen one after another in their spare time.

The storyteller also analyzed with the guests the deep-seated reasons behind the series of strange events.

Everyone expressed their opinions, but most people believed that there was a dark hand behind everything, and even felt that the evil forces had revived and started to change their tactics to deal with wealthy families like them.

This statement was recognized by many people, and everyone felt that the goal of the underworld forces was to control these wealthy people.

Such speculation not only spread in taverns and teahouses, but even government officials and detectives regarded it as an important clue and launched an investigation.

However, this matter seemed to be related to the world of cultivation and also involved the power of ghosts and gods, making it very difficult for the government.

Therefore, the government decided to hire talented people from the cultivation world to assist in the investigation, and offered a generous reward. Currently, the reward has reached 200 to 500 taels of silver.

Qingchen suggested to consult Master Yuanming for countermeasures. After all, there are many fellow disciples in the Taoist temple. If he can get the support of the master, he can send some people with strong martial arts, good at gathering information and careful thinking to find the truth. He believes that as long as they work together, they will be able to uncover the mystery behind this strange incident.

Qingchen's suggestion was recognized by everyone, so they decided to go to Master Yuanming's residence to ask for advice. When they explained their purpose, the master said: "Regardless of whether there is a huge reward or not, as a Taoist ghost catcher, when encountering such a thing, it is naturally my duty to help investigate the inside story of this strange phenomenon."

Because Qingti, Xiao Yunyan and the others have not returned yet, Qingchen and their senior brothers can't wait any longer.

With the tacit approval of Taoist Master Yuan Ming, each of them took some spiritual supplies and some money to go out to find other junior brothers who had no work for the time being. Within a day, 16 people were gathered and divided into four groups to go to four counties to investigate the case.

Qingchen and dozens of fellow brothers started their own investigation and went to different areas to collect clues.

Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan brought those injured Taoists back from the mountain. The two young Taoists who led the way admired these two living gods very much because they saw with their own eyes the scene of Xiao Yunyan treating these injured Taoists.

Xiao Yunyan has miraculous medical skills, and these Taoists were all seriously injured by the magic attacks of evil forces.

But in Xiao Yunyan's eyes, these injuries were not difficult to treat.

Except for the limb defects that she couldn't let heal immediately, she treated the other wounds directly.

In addition to repairing pills, Xiao Yunyan also used her spiritual power to repair the bodies of those Taoists whose internal organs and bones were damaged.

Now, these Taoists who have been treated are extremely grateful to Xiao Yunyan and Qingti. They have accepted their suggestions and moved back to Xuantian Temple to continue staying here.

However, since the physical illnesses of these Taoists have basically been cured, they firmly disagree that Xiao Yunyan should be responsible for their living expenses in the future. They all said that they have hands and feet. Their bodies have recovered 70% to 80%. According to the miracle doctor, they can basically recover after another three or four days of recuperation. In this way, they can support themselves.

Xiao Yunyan did not argue with them too much. After this incident, he would often send some food and spiritual supplies to Xuantian Temple. For her, these things were readily available, but for these wandering Taoists, they were the capital for survival and practice.

Xiao Yunyan rebuked these Taoist priests who had a strong sense of justice and respected them very much. So he would often help them in the future.

When they returned to the Taoist temple, they learned that Qingchen and his fellow apprentices had gone to investigate the case. In order not to delay his return to Hell with Qingti Immortal, Qingchen would return in three days.

Xiao Yunyan and Qingti wanted to know the details of the situation. Yuan Ming explained the situation in detail to them.

Xiao Yunyan and Qingti both believed that this strange phenomenon was not a disease, but that these people were the target group selected by the evil forces. They took advantage of the fact that these young men and women, old men and old ladies lived a wealthy life and had never experienced pain on weekdays, which led to them being unable to withstand the slightest setback or temptation. Therefore, these evil forces attacked them. The purpose was simple, which was to control this group of people and at the same time control these families.

Xiao Yunyan said: None of these people who wanted to die actually died. This shows that the evil forces behind everything were trying to control them, but they were trying to control them instead of actually killing them.

Xiao Yunyan told Yuan Ming and several Taoist priests who came back from the Taoist temple about her guess. At the same time, she promised that no matter whether Chen Qing and his brothers could find clues, as long as they contributed to this matter, she would reward them. She would never let them work in vain.

The brothers who came back later were also sent out by Yuan Ming. Regardless of whether there was a reward or not, the Taoists of Xuantian Temple were heroes who rushed forward.

They also received travel expenses and supplies, and they were going to a more distant state capital to investigate the person behind the scenes.

When Qingchen and his brothers arrived at the first county town, they asked the local people if there were any unusual people or things happening recently. While eating at an inn, they heard the guests at the next table talking about a mysterious doctor.

"It is said that this miracle doctor specializes in treating various difficult and complicated diseases, and many patients have been cured by him."

Qingchen's mind moved, maybe this miracle doctor knew some clues about the strange incident. He and his fellow apprentices found the miracle doctor's residence according to the address provided by the guest.

The doctor's name was Hua Tu. After learning the purpose of Qing Chen and the others' visit, he frowned slightly and said, "I have also noticed these strange events, but I have no clue yet. However, I can investigate with you."

Qingchen and his group were very grateful. With the participation of the folk doctor, their confidence was doubled. The doctor had contact with many people and could understand more situations.

Under the guidance of Dr. Huatu, Qingchen and his fellow doctors visited many patients and their families.

They found that these patients had come into contact with some mysterious spells or objects before the onset of the disease.

"These spells and objects may be tools used by evil forces to manipulate people," Hua Tu speculated.

Qingchen nodded thoughtfully, "We must find the source of these spells as soon as possible to solve the mystery."

After some investigation, they finally locked onto a black market that sold talismans. Qingchen and his brothers sneaked into the black market.

They clearly felt a gloomy atmosphere here, which was different from the aura emitted by ordinary people, but not like the aura of ghosts in hell.

They pretended to come to buy these talismans, and lingered in front of the stalls from time to time, trying to find out the source of these talismans.

However, the traders in these black markets are very cautious. They will not easily reveal the source of these talismans. They only mark the price and sell the goods. If you ask anything else, they will just say "no comment" to block it.

Qingchen and his fellow brothers planned to wait for two days. During the wait, Qingchen spotted a suspicious figure and followed him secretly.

The man walked into an alley and entered a dilapidated house.

Qingchen approached the window cautiously. Looking through the gap, he saw that the room was filled with mysterious spells and objects.

Just as he was about to observe further, he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw a man in black, holding a dagger and looking fierce.

Qingchen immediately started fighting with him, but the opponent was very strong and Qingchen gradually lost the upper hand. At the critical moment, Huatu, a genius doctor, arrived in time and subdued the man in black with his magic hands.

After interrogation, they learned that these spells and items came from an organization called "Shadow Cult".

This organization secretly controls everything and attempts to control people's life and death. Qingchen and his fellow brothers decide to investigate the "Shadow Cult" in depth to uncover the conspiracy behind it.

However, this matter was no small matter, and they could not act rashly, so they reported the results of the investigation to their teachers.

Xiao Yunyan and Qingti felt that the information they had investigated was very important and they could hand it over to the government office in exchange for some money.

However, if they want to take further action, they have to do it on their own. If they bring those detectives with them, they might just get in the way.

Xiao Yunyan gave each of these Taoists some talismans she had drawn herself, mainly attack talismans, siege talismans, teleportation talismans, and stiffness talismans.

In order to give them more chances to save their lives, Xiao Yunyan gave each of them two bottles of knockout drugs and antidotes. She told them to take the antidote before taking action. It not only removes the poison from the other party, but also sprinkles knockout drugs at the critical moment, and then uses the teleportation charm to escape, or uses the siege array to surround the enemy. This mainly depends on the strength of the opponent and the number of people.

If the enemy is small in number and weak in strength, you can directly surround them; if the enemy is large in number and it is unlikely to control all of them in a short period of time, you must first teleport to save your life and then make plans.

After receiving the supplies, Qingchen and his fellow apprentices continued to explore other branches of this dark organization. More importantly, they wanted to find the forces behind this organization.

Qingchen and his fellow brothers followed the plan and quietly approached a stronghold of the "Shadow Cult".

They carefully avoided the eyes of the church and finally found a secret account book which recorded the evil deeds of the "Shadow Church" and their plans.

Just as they were about to leave, they were discovered by a master of the sect, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.

Qingchen and his senior brothers remained fearless in the face of danger and worked in perfect harmony. With the help of the talismans and elixirs given by Xiao Yunyan and their own magic, they successfully defeated their opponents.

However, this battle also aroused the vigilance of the "Shadow Cult". They began to strengthen their precautions, making the investigation of Qingchen and others more difficult.

But they did not give up and continued to look for clues. Qingchen knew that it was difficult to fight against the "Shadow Cult" with their own strength, so he discussed countermeasures with Huatu.

Huatu decided to use his connections to contact other righteous people to fight against the cult together.

At the same time, Qingchen and his fellow brothers continued to collect evidence in secret, preparing to make the crimes of the "Shadow Cult" public.

With the efforts of everyone, the conspiracy of the "Shadow Cult" gradually surfaced, people of justice responded one after another, and a battle between good and evil is about to begin.

Rouge Country is rich in rouge, so among the wealthy families in the country, more than 30% of the family businesses are related to rouge.

Rouge was a must-have item for all women in ancient times, so it was in great demand. Rouge from Rouge Kingdom was supplied to many surrounding countries.

Therefore, the common people and wealthy businessmen who depend on Yanzhi for their living were created. Yanzhi has many rich people, which makes it the first choice for dark forces to make their moves.

The easiest ones to seduce are naturally the young men and women from wealthy families who are ignorant of the ways of the world. Then there are the old men and women who want to live longer.

The members of these organizations are all quacks or the scum among the cultivators. They will do anything to gain benefits.

They use the ability of fortune-telling to confuse these two groups of people. When using talismans and amulets with negative energy, not only can they not keep you safe, but they can also make you want to die.

The original plan was that if someone in a family wanted to commit suicide, they would definitely find a wizard who understood yin and yang to help them solve the problem. This was a good opportunity for the members of the Shadow Cult to make a lot of money.

Of course, they would restore the people controlled by negative energy to normal after receiving the silver, but since then they not only gained the trust and respect of the wealthy families, but also controlled the life and death of these wealthy families.

However, the government actually offered money to catch the manipulators behind the scenes. So they did not dare to jump out immediately to perform rituals to exorcise the evil spirits for these bewitched people. Instead, they waited for the opportunity.

Now, several of their strongholds were discovered and attacked by Taoist priests and cultivators, and they felt threatened.

Some branch organizations that couldn't hold on secretly contacted the organizations behind them. The leaders of the superior organizations asked them to temporarily stop and avoid the sharp edge.

As a result, Qingchen and his fellow apprentices suddenly lost their target. Qingchen and his fellow apprentices were not discouraged, as they believed that the Shadow Cult would not give up.

Sure enough, they received news not long after that the "Shadow Cult" was preparing to hold an important ceremony in an ancient tomb. Qingchen and others decided to seize this opportunity to thoroughly expose the true face of the "Shadow Cult".

With the help of Huatu, Qingchen and his team made a detailed plan. When night fell, they sneaked into the ancient tomb, but encountered many traps and ambushes. Fortunately, they successfully broke through the obstacles and arrived at the ceremony site.

At this time, the leader of the "Shadow Cult" is presiding over a ceremony, trying to awaken the evil power of the ghosts in the ancient tomb.

Qingchen and his brothers attacked without hesitation and started a fierce battle with the leader. For a while, spells flew everywhere, trying to catch the other party.

Qingchen and his brothers cooperated well with their superb martial arts and firm beliefs, and with the help of the talismans and drugs given by Xiao Yunyan, they injured the leader of the branch, but he escaped.

Qingchen's brothers conducted a sweep of the branch base and found a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. They didn't know whether to hand it over to the public or keep it for the sect.

When the news was passed back to the sect, Taoist Master Yuanming did not hesitate to let his disciples report to the authorities. This money was not obtained through legitimate means. It should be confiscated, and the court will decide how to use this huge amount of money. If the Taoist temple swallowed this money privately, it would bring disaster to the temple.

Xiao Yunyan and Taoist Qingti agreed with Taoist Yuanming's decision. There are even more powerful backers behind those evil forces.

The Taoists of Xuantian Temple joined everyone in the fight against evil forces. It was a just act of cooperation between the cultivation world, the martial arts world and the government. There would be no private grudges. Therefore, the possibility of private revenge was very small.

If the disciples took the silver back, it would be like killing for money, and a righteous act would become an evil one. There is a high possibility that they would be retaliated against privately by evil forces.

More importantly, the whereabouts of the stolen silver was also a matter of concern to the government. Taoist Yuan Ming's choice was both very rational and reflected his noble character.
