It has been more than half a month since the first baby died in a strange way. However, the government has no clues about the murderer. Ziyu, who has just arrived, claims that the murderer can be caught in just three days. An explanation.

Everyone turned their heads and saw that the speaker was a young girl who didn't know her face. Apart from being pretty and pretty, she seemed to have nothing special about her.No matter the county government headed by County Magistrate Hu or all the sufferers, they didn't believe her words, and some even thought she was here to make trouble and let her play around.

"Brother Zhan, Brother Fifth, do you trust me?" Ziyu asked, looking at the two people who had already controlled the situation, not caring much about the sarcastic remarks of others.

Zhan Zhao looked at her and nodded and smiled: "Zi Yu's ability, of course Zhan can trust her."

"Of course I believe you." Bai Yutang turned and walked to her side: "I will work with you to find the murderer."

At this time, everyone knew that the three of them were on the same road, and, judging from their conversations, it seemed that this little girl was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

On the same day, under the arrangement of magistrate Hu, the three of them lived in the guest room of the county government.

After asking several sufferers, they roughly understood the time and method of the murderer's crime.In order to further confirm her guess, Ziyu proposed to check the corpse.

Those who died were all children less than one year old, and they all died in miserable conditions. Parents couldn't bear to see their own flesh and blood like this, and they were all burned.Now, only the child who was killed last night has yet to be buried in the future. Under the leadership of County Magistrate Hu and the people, the three of Ziyu went to the home of the suffering master.

In a simple mourning hall, in a small coffin, there is a small corpse tightly wrapped in a white cloth.

Ziyu just glanced at it and stretched out her hand to untie the white cloth, but was immediately stopped by the person next to her: "Girl, the child died so badly, don't scare you. Besides, look at the wound, it looks like it was torn by something. I have bitten it, and I don’t know if I will get the disease. You just reach out and touch it, what if you get the disease?”

Hearing this, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao turned their heads to look at Ziyu, both a little startled, but she smiled lightly, shook her head and said softly, "It's okay."

As she spoke, she had already lifted a corner of the white cloth, revealing her livid calf underneath which should have been white and tender.

It was poisoned, and it was still very poisonous.

After she completely uncovered the white cloth, the few people who saw the corpse for the first time gasped, while others turned their faces away unbearably, and the child's parents burst into tears.

"He must have been bitten to death by a beast." Looking at the child's shattered body, Ziyu said to everyone in a deep voice, "His skin turned blue, it's because he was poisoned by a demon."

When they heard her say that she was a "demon", everyone looked clear.

"This girl is just like what the young man said before, she really is a monster!"

Their discussion immediately caught Zhan Zhao's attention: "What young man? Where is he now?"

When asked by him, the people did not answer, but glared angrily at magistrate Hu.

County magistrate Hu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stumbled back to Zhan Zhao: "That person was...by a lower official...and locked up...and now the county government...is in jail."

"Why did you arrest him?" Since the man also knew that the case was committed by a monster, he must be a fellow.He speaks uprightly but gets imprisoned, Tzu-yu can't help feeling a little unworthy of him.

"The lower officials thought...that he was bewitching the crowd..." Magistrate Hu was about to refute, but seeing that everyone was looking at him with cold faces, he hurriedly shut up and stopped talking.

Several people resigned from the suffering master and returned to the county government. The magistrate Hu immediately ordered people to go to the prison to release the young man.After a short wait, a handsome young man came in led by the yamen servant.

I saw that the person who came here was handsome and looked about fifteen or six years old. Although he was locked in a big prison for several days, which made him look a little sloppy, his expression had a calmness that did not match his age, and there was no trace of it. Tired or resentful.A cyan long gown exudes elegance, but it has a bit of fairy air.

When they were looking at him, he also raised his eyes and looked at them quietly. When he saw Ziyu, he was obviously taken aback, and then he called loudly: "Disciple Xu Mufeng pays respects to Master Uncle."

After speaking, he stretched out his hand to lift his robe and was about to kneel down.

Everyone in the room was stunned, and they all turned their heads to look at Ziyu.

As early as when he entered the door, Ziyu's expression changed.When she went out, she only felt that the case was different, so she wanted to come and have a look together, but she never thought that she would meet someone from Jiuyou Sect here.

Seeing that he wanted to worship, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to support his arm, preventing him from kneeling: "Get up." After he stood up, Ziyu said slowly: "I am no longer a disciple in the sect, you don't need to worship me, let alone Call me uncle."

Xu Mufeng knew that she had a knot in her heart, so he clasped his fists at her and made a bow: "Master, after you left in anger, the head of the sect ordered the disciples to look for you everywhere, hoping that you can return to the master's sect."

"Enough! I have nothing to do with Jiuyoumen. No matter what your head thinks or does, it has nothing to do with me."

As soon as these words came out, not only her tone was frighteningly cold, but even her eyes became cold.Hearing this, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao were both surprised: What happened to her?

In her heart, Qingxuan is the current head of Jiuyou Sect, the one who killed Senior Brother Qingyi and Senior Sister Ziyan with one palm.It's not the second senior brother who grew up with her, always mischievous with her, and was punished by the elders to kneel after getting into trouble.

Sighing, Xu Mufeng called out again: "Uncle Master..."

"Don't talk about it," Ziyu's voice returned to the softness of the past: "I won't go back. If you bring this up again, I'll leave right away."

For a while, the two of them didn't speak any more, and the atmosphere in the room became a little depressing.

"The head of the Nine Nether Sect?"

After listening to the two of them talking for a long time, Bai Yutang began to become interested in this leader whom he had never heard of.Ziyu, who is usually gentle and cheerful, can suddenly become surly. What is the origin of this guy?What is the relationship between him and Ziyu, and what kind of grievances and grievances do they have?

Because Ziyu had told him about this before, and after hearing Bai Yutang talking beside him, Zhan Zhao subconsciously responded, "That man is Ziyu's senior brother."

Bai Yutang nodded in understanding, then looked at Zhan Zhao suspiciously with a frown: "How do you know?"

Glancing at him with disdain, Zhan Zhao turned his head to look at the two people who were in a stalemate: "Of course it was Ziyu who told me."

"Ziyu didn't even tell me about these things, how could she tell you?" Bai Yutang lowered his voice and questioned him, but returned a pair of blank eyes.

He felt that he was getting closer to Ziyu, but now, even Zhan Zhao had heard what she said, but he didn't know anything about it. Bai Yutang was inevitably a little unhappy, and Zhan Zhao's attitude made him even more angry.

Just as he was about to explode, he saw Zhan Zhao stepping forward, cupping his fists at Xu Mufeng and asking, "Young Master Xu, please discuss the matter of your faction later. The most important thing right now is to find the murderer and get rid of this scourge for the people of this place." Mr. Xu came one step ahead, I wonder if he has found any clues?"

After Zhan Zhao broke the deadlock between the two in a timely manner, Xu Mufeng gave him a grateful nod in his helplessness: "Actually, I didn't find anything, but what is certain is that the one who harmed people here is a monster born with spiritual wisdom. "

Xu Mufeng's words coincided with Ziyu's guess before, it seems that if they want to catch the murderer this time, they will have to work hard.

"Actually, with my uncle around, there's nothing to be afraid of a monster like this who has not yet transformed into a human form." Seemingly seeing everyone's thoughts, Xu Mufeng said to everyone confidently, showing a touch of brilliance laugh.

"Before catching the monster, we need Lord Hu's help in other matters." Without wasting words to correct his address, Ziyu turned to look at Magistrate Hu and said.

"Young lady Su, just tell me what you want." Hearing that she asked him for help, County Magistrate Hu was a little flattered: "The next official will definitely do his best and will not hesitate."

Ziyu shook her head and said with a slight smile: "The thing I'm talking about is actually not difficult. But before that, I need to know how many families are there in the city with children under the age of nine?"

Asked the master to find the booklet of the county's registered population, and after a long time of calculation, he gave Ziyu an affirmative answer.

Nodding her head, Ziyu took out a handful of paper talismans from her bag and handed them to County Magistrate Hu: "Distribute these to these families first, if it's not enough, I'll find a way."

As she said that, she turned around and looked at Xu Mufeng who had been waiting beside her all the time: "Can you get an order now?"

When Xu Mufeng heard this, he immediately took out a palm-sized black token from his arms, and held it in front of her respectfully.

Taking a look at the token, Ziyu nodded and said, "It seems that your cultivation has achieved a little bit. Go take a shower and change clothes later, and then come back to draw the spell."

"Yes." Xu Mufeng accepted the order.

County magistrate Hu immediately sent someone to boil water, prepare clean clothes, and arrange a room for him to take a bath.Then, they sent people to buy good cinnabar and yellow paper...

After everything was done, Xu Mufeng also changed into clean clothes and came back refreshed.After burning incense and praying, he took a pen dipped in cinnabar and drew a spell on the yellow paper like flowing water.Drawing talismans is a labor-intensive task, and by the time he finished drawing dozens of talismans in one go, he was already sweating profusely.

"Take a good rest and leave the rest to me." After finishing speaking, Ziyu turned around and walked out the door.

"Master Uncle," Xu Mufeng supported the table with both hands, and suddenly called to her: "Be careful."

"Ok, I know."

"And..." After all, it is a young man's heart, and he always feels uncomfortable when he has something on his mind.He paused, and then said: "Actually, the head of the sect blamed himself for that incident back then. We haven't seen him laugh all these years. He often practiced swords in the back mountain, and he practiced for a whole day..."

Ziyu didn't turn around or leave, she stood at the door with her back to him, listening to him silently.

"... Uncle, can't you forgive the head?" After whispering the last sentence, Xu Mufeng stared at her back with some worry and expectation.

Ziyu looked up at the somewhat cloudy sky, took a deep breath, said nothing, and quickly disappeared in front of everyone.

Looking at Xu Mufeng who was dejected because of her leaving, Bai Yutang frowned, and walked towards Ziyu in the direction Ziyu left.
