I Killed Gods and Demons in Song Dynasty

Chapter 64: Finding Your Whereabouts
After hearing what Li Qingyun said, Lu Zhen simply shook his head:

“The young master of the Zhu family doesn’t look like he’s possessed by an evil spirit.

"Children have vigorous blood and energy. Once they encounter an evil spirit, their reaction will be quite strong. It is unlikely that they will be unconscious so quietly.

"Moreover, even if he is possessed by an evil spirit, we cannot just randomly experiment with an exorcism ritual that has no clear origin.

"Whether Wei Xiuwen's son has really been cured or there are greater hidden dangers, these need to be verified first."

Li Qingyun nodded and asked, "What Lu Zhen said makes sense.
"Should I bring Wei Xiuwen here for trial?"

Lu Zhen shook his head:

"Don't make a big fuss about it. As you said, he may be afraid of his secret being exposed, so he may not be willing to tell the truth. It would be better for you to find out privately as an individual.

"I will go to the Zhu family in person later to find out whether Zhu Chengxi is possessed by an evil spirit. If it is just ordinary hunger and excessive fright, then we just need to comfort the spirit a little."

After hearing what Lu Zhen said, Li Qingyun finally put his heart at ease. He said goodbye to Lu Zhen and hurried back to the Yingxiong Building.

……

By the time Li Qingyun arrived at the Juyi Hall, it was almost the evening hour.

It was only then that he remembered that he had not eaten yet and his stomach was growling with hunger.

It was a good opportunity to go to Zuiyanglou to eat and drink for free, and save the money for a meal... Li Qingyun was making some plans in his mind, but he saw two figures, one tall and one short, wandering around stealthily.

This is... a thief?
Li Qingyun's heart was lifted up, but he immediately let it go.

Are you kidding? The Changle Gang is so poor, which thief would be willing to patronize them?

When he looked more closely, he saw that the two figures were Fang Shuan and Han Tianjin.

They were visiting incognito and had dressed up to conceal most of their features, but one of them had a big head and the other had a strong body, which could not be hidden from the eyes of a second-level warrior.

When Fang Shuan, who had no nose, saw Li Qingyun, he walked over with a humming voice: "Well... Brother Qingyun, when are we leaving?"

Along the way, Li Qingyun had already divined about tonight's banquet and got a hint that the danger was not great. He was confident in his heart, so he smiled and patted Fang Shuan's shoulder:

"Let's go now. Please pretend to be my followers for the time being and just follow me. We in the Changle Gang are all underworld figures and are not used to dealing with government officials."

Since they could get free food and drinks and have the opportunity to make merit, Fang Shuan and Han Tianjin naturally nodded in agreement and followed Li Qingyun into the Juyi Hall.

In addition to Chu Jinxiang and Wei Xiuwen, there were more than twenty strong young men, all of whom were carefully selected from the several halls of the Changle Gang.

In addition, there was a young girl of about eighteen or nineteen years old, who was pretty and sweet, but her face was full of worry.

Li Qingyun recognized her immediately. This was Song Ke's sister, Song Shu.

He suddenly felt a little embarrassed, because in his vague memory, his previous incarnation had harassed this beautiful girl a lot, and because of this, he was almost pinned to the ground and beaten up by Song Ke several times.

Li Qingyun avoided Song Shu's gaze, frowned, and looked around again, but did not find Song Ke, so he asked Chu Jinxiang:
"Where is Master Song?"

Chu Jinxiang stepped forward and replied:

"Song Ke hasn't shown up today, and he didn't go home last night. Now, his sister is here."

At this time, Song Shu also said:

"Boss Li...Boss Li, my brother said last night that he would accompany you to the trade fair at Xuanwu Pavilion, but he never came home.

"At first I thought he was staying in the Hero Building to handle official business, so I didn't take it seriously. But there was still no news from him today, so I came to the Hero Building to ask, but still no one... No one had seen him..."

At the end, she was choking up a little, because her brother would come home to see her every day no matter how busy he was with official duties, and now he was missing all day, something must have happened. Li Qingyun frowned, recalling the situation last night. Song Ke was fine when he left, could it be that he met his enemy on the way home?

He frowned, closed his eyes and began to meditate and divine.

With his current cultivation level of the second realm, he no longer needs to summon the mysterious palace when fortune-telling. He can directly use the pupil mark on his arm and the "super sense" method to track.

Especially for someone familiar like Song Ke, with whom he has a lot of interactions, he can get very accurate revelations without even having to use anything close to him to capture his breath.

At this moment, he silently said in his heart: "Song Ke's current position..."

After a moment, scenes emerged in Li Qingyun's mind:

Song Ke, with torn clothes, was tied up and lying drowsily on a pile of straw, locked in a cold and gloomy room.

His handsome face was covered in bruises, his right eye was swollen so high that it couldn't be opened, and there were black clots all around it, which was a shocking sight.

Then, the view suddenly zoomed up, revealing the full view of the building. With carved beams and painted buildings, it was magnificent. Lanterns were hung on both sides of the gate, illuminating the plaque hanging high in the middle, on which were written in large gold-plated characters:

"Zuiyang Tower"!
……

"call!"

Li Qingyun opened his eyes, changing his usual cheerful look. His face was as gloomy as water, and he said to Song Shu in a deep voice:

"Your brother probably fell into the hands of the people in Jinfengxiyu Tower."

When Song Shu heard this, tears immediately fell like beads from a broken string, and she cried and said:

"The people in Jinfengxiyu Tower are ruthless and cruel. If my brother falls into their hands, I'm afraid... I'm afraid..."

Chu Jinxiang was beside her. She quickly reached out and held the little girl in her arms to comfort her. At the same time, her eyes widened and she said angrily:

"These bastards are so vicious. On the surface, they gave us wine to apologize, but secretly they took advantage of our carelessness to kill us. I will fight them to the death!"

Wei Xiuwen was always serious. He bent his middle finger and tapped the table lightly, saying slowly:

"This style seems to be Chen Jin's work, but if so, the banquet they set must be a Hongmen Banquet. If we go there, I'm afraid we will be in danger."

Chu Jinxiang glanced at Wei Xiuwen, then turned her gaze to Li Qingyun:

"Boss, what should we do?"

Li Qingyun sneered:
"What should we do? Of course we should go to Zuiyanglou for the banquet and bring the person back."

Wei Xiuwen frowned:
"Boss Li, are you crazy? You know it's a trap, but you still want to die?"

Upon hearing this, Li Qingyun swept his sharp eyes over him:

"How can you save people if you don't go? If you're scared, you can stay."

Wei Xiuwen met the eyes of his gang leader and suddenly his whole body shuddered. He felt a chill deep in his bones, as if he was being stared at by some huge ferocious beast. He felt nervous from the bottom of his heart.

He didn't know why he had such a feeling when facing that scoundrel, but his morale plummeted and he could only lower his head and remain silent.

Li Qingyun turned his eyes away from him, looked around, and waved to everyone:
"If you are not afraid of death, follow me. Let's go and bring Hall Master Song back from Zuiyang Tower..."
