SFS Chapter 289: Flesh Sea Sword Saint
Chapter 289: Flesh Sea Sword Saint
The case evolved into a situation where the only way to avoid becoming a pile of meat was to find the curser who cast the curse.
Everyone was trembling.
The old woodcutter, who was suspected of being the murderer like Li Changxiao and the others, walked out trembling, crying, "Who... who is the curse master? Why did he want to kill us?"
"My precious granddaughter is waiting for me to come back. I can't die here!"
The old woodcutter was on the verge of collapse.
Official Xian Tai frowned, thinking that only by solving the case as quickly as possible could casualties be avoided as much as possible.
At this time, Dao Ji, who had been deceived by the unfaithful man in her early years, stood up. She looked at Li Changxiao and pointed the finger at him, "You... are the curse master, right?"
"Ah?" Li Changxiao was stunned.
I don't know where this comes from.
Dao Ji said coldly, "I have been observing you for a long time. When Master Yu said that more people would die, you three didn't show any fear at all."
"Moreover, from yesterday to today, you have been extremely calm, not at all like normal people being suspected!"
Dao Ji's words really moved many people, and they looked over almost at the same time.
Xian Tai and Yu Shi did the same and cast suspicious glances.
Mei Sanniang poked Li Changxiao's lower back with a gloating look.
Li Changxiao thought about it and told everyone that he was just a carefree person and drank some wine so he felt dizzy.
The matter of the curse master really has nothing to do with him, and it would be a waste of time to suspect him.
His explanation was somewhat effective, but some people still didn't quite believe it.
Li Changxiao thought about it and came up with several inferences. The first one was why the curse master came here from afar to randomly curse and kill people.
Second, at what time was the ceremony held last night? The curse master should have been present during the ceremony.
However, the rooms on the second floor were arranged in a "廾" shape. The rooms of the fifteen dead were on the right side of the second floor, while the rooms of Li Changxiao and three other people were on the left side.
And if he was a curse master, he would need to pass through a very long corridor in the middle to perform the curse ceremony, which would make him extremely easy to be discovered.
Give an explanation.
Many people showed understanding expressions.
That being said, it does make sense.
After hearing this, Xian Tai nodded secretly, if it was really a curse master performing a curse ceremony.
Then the curse master's room must be on the right, otherwise he would be asking for trouble. There were about seven rooms on the right, and eleven wanderers were staying there.
General Xian's gaze fell on a wanderer who lived in the right wing.
While interrogating them one by one, he ordered people to search their rooms carefully.
at dusk.
It really was rewarding.
In the room of a thin man, soldiers found a black Buddha statue.
It is an evil statue.
Most of those who practiced Taoism to prolong their lives had something they believed in, and the appearance of this evil statue undoubtedly pushed the thin man to the forefront.
In an instant, everyone looked over.
"I have no grudge against you, why do you want to curse us?" Dao Ji was furious.
"no no…"
"I'm not!"
The thin man shook his head and wanted to explain something.
But then a man swung his iron fist and hit him hard in the face.
In an instant, the thin man flew out with blood flowing from his nose and smashed a wooden table.
It looked terrible.
Soon, several more people swarmed over.
"kill him!"
"Just kill him! The curse will be broken!"
Someone shouted loudly, and everyone present started to kill him.
Li Changxiao frowned and blasted out a palm wind, knocking everyone to the ground in an instant.
Those people who had lost their minds were all shocked. This man had such powerful strength.
Master Yu looked at Li Changxiao for a second longer. This man had mastered the art of spiritual enlightenment and opened up many mysterious acupoints, so he was very powerful.
He had misjudged the situation before and had overlooked the presence of such a person.
Li Changxiao looked at the thin man who was beaten unconscious and frowned slightly. There was still something strange about this matter, but he couldn't put it into words.
Xian Tai believed that the case had been solved and thanked Master Yu solemnly.
He then ordered his men to open the door of the inn and let everyone leave.
Some people are worried.
Afraid that the curse would come true upon them, the Rain Master told them not to worry about it. One of the secret rules of the curse master in the Taoist priesthood is that once the curse master is exposed, the curse will be exposed to the sunlight and will lose its effect.
In short, just leave with peace of mind.
Li Changxiao and the other two went upstairs to pack their luggage, although there was not much luggage to pack.
Li Changxiao took a look at each room. Everyone was about to leave. The knife girl was holding a knife, the old woodcutter's hands were full of wrinkles, counting copper coins one by one, and the young man was playing with wooden tools...
Li Changxiao passed by the room where fifteen people died and took a rough look inside. It was very clean, as clean as if someone had cleaned it.
There are actually many doubts here.
But...that's Xian Tai's business.
Now that he was free, it was time for him to go back to the inn.
The inn was abandoned for a few days.
I don’t know what it looks like now.
"What are you standing there for? Come down now!"
Mei Sanniang and the cook climbed onto the carriage and shouted to Li Changxiao.
Li Changxiao smiled slightly, picked up his bag, and said, "Here we come!"
……
On the flat post road.
A horse-drawn carriage passed by.
Mei Sanniang sat in the carriage, crossing her legs in a coquettish posture and smoking a pipe.
Li Changxiao and the cook were sitting outside the carriage. Li Changxiao held the reins while the cook was staring at the snow scene in a daze.
On the road.
Because the wheels of the carriage were loose, the carriage was forced to stop. It took two full hours to repair it before it could continue on its journey.
This carriage is rented. If it breaks down, it will cost a lot of money to pay. Mei Sanniang treasures it very much.
But they were bored on the way, so the three of them started talking about the case of the Beauty Fragrance Inn.
When Li Changxiao saw the fifteen dead people for the first time, he guessed that some kind of ceremony might be taking place.
But Li Changxiao was not clear about what the ceremony was or what the effect was.
Because he didn't know much about the way of sacrifice.
"What do you think... is that meat paste really caused by a curse?" Li Changxiao asked in a deep voice.
He has always been interested in this kind of case.
Li Changxiao thought for a moment, and glanced at the cook and Mei Sanniang, "On the night of the incident, did you notice how that person turned into meat paste?"
Mei Sanniang shook her head, "I didn't sense it."
The cook's eyes flickered and he also shook his head.
"Mei Sanniang, your peak cultivation level seems to be the fusion stage? Even you can't sense it?" Li Changxiao asked.
Mei Sanniang raised her eyebrows, kicked Li Changxiao with her leg, and said coquettishly: "How can I lie to you? When I said I didn't sense it, I really didn't sense it."
"Besides, I have sealed my spirit, body, and soul now, so isn't it normal that I didn't sense it? That thing wasn't coming for me, so it's normal that I couldn't sense it."
"But then again, can a mere curse master really avoid my perception and crush people into meat paste silently?" Mei Sanniang said, pinching her chin, looking thoughtful.
Sudden.
Li Changxiao pulled the reins hard.
The carriage braked suddenly.
Almost hit an old man.
It was the old woodcutter I met at the Beauty Fragrance Inn.
He was carrying a sack on his back at the moment, and looked at the three people pleadingly, "Young man..."
"The wind and snow here are getting stronger and stronger, and I'm getting old. Can you give me a ride?"
"I have fifteen copper coins. I'll give them all to you."
The old woodcutter pleaded.
The cook seemed to be thinking about something.
"Forget it, get on." Li Changxiao waved his hand. There was still some space in the carriage, so it wouldn't matter even if one more person was added.
"thanks, thanks…"
The old woodcutter nodded frantically.
After trying a few times and failing to climb onto the carriage, he stretched out his hand somewhat embarrassedly and asked, "Young man, can you give me a hand?"
"Of course." Li Changxiao reached out to pull.
Just at this moment.
The cook, who had been deep in thought just now, seemed to have finally thought of something, and shouted anxiously, "Don't touch him! He is the Meat Sea Sword Saint!"
It's the same moment.
Mei Sanniang reacted instantly.
An indescribable force pressed down on the old woodcutter, and his originally charming eyes revealed a horrified and murderous intent!
And a smile appeared on the old woodcutter's face.
He quickly grabbed Li Changxiao's hand.
Finally, a light touch.
Because the distance was too close, even though Mei Sanniang and the cook exploded in an instant, they were unable to stop it.
"whee."
"Die."
The old woodcutter showed a proud expression.
