If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 567: Looking at the Qi
"The three dogs are missing. Could they have been kidnapped by some kidnappers?" Xiaoyu looked at Xiaoqiang and Sister Cui'er in surprise. Both the man and the dog looked worried, but not very anxious.

Sister Cui'er, in particular, doesn't look like a loving mother at all after losing her only son.

"It shouldn't be that she was kidnapped." Cui Er looked around and saw many people gathered around her. She said vaguely, "Things are a bit complicated. I will explain it to you later. Now you go see the Marquis first."

Xiaoyu was getting more and more confused. San Gouzi was missing, and this mother had such a reaction.
But she didn't ask any further questions.

After saying hello to the acquaintances and strangers around her, she walked across the yard and into the main room.

When Li Xianzhi heard the noise outside, he immediately came out of the house.

Seeing her happily talking to her old friend, he didn't go up to disturb her.

Seeing her come in, Li Xianzhi didn't waste any words and immediately led her to the side hall.

There was only one person, Li Wupan, in the side hall.

"Li Jingwen, the military judge of Yingxiang Prefecture, is honored to meet Fairy Yu." Uncle Li looked at her with complicated eyes.

Xiao Yu bowed his head and asked, "Li Wenpan, do you have any news about the Black Flood Demon King?"

Li Wenpan spread out a map of Yingxiang Prefecture on the table, marked ten points with a red pen, and drew a few lines.

"We have checked all the eighteen caves you tortured out of the ape.

The women and children hiding there were probably bewitched by the evil spirit and lost consciousness, so there were no traces of human activities left.

The City God summoned the local mountain gods and land gods.

After careful investigation, they discovered faint remnants of demonic energy.

But we can’t follow the evil spirit.”

"This is the trajectory of the evil spirit confirmed by the mountain god using magic." Li Wenpan pointed at a few red lines with a pen and said helplessly: "The 'black-winged bat' mentioned by the water ape is obviously the bat spirit.

Not only can he fly, but he is also very skilled in hiding his movements!

They should have flown away directly from the sky, carrying the women and children abducted by the aquatic monkey.

The remaining evil spirit left the cave and quickly disappeared."

Xiao Yu was very dissatisfied, "You just searched for the eighteen caves that I have already found?"

Li Wupan did not avoid her gaze and said seriously: "The eighteen caves are clear targets, so of course they must be inspected in detail.

I had hoped to find some clues and then follow them to the root of the problem.

But the goblins are cunning and are obviously wary of us ghosts and gods.

The eighteen caves are not actually inside the mountain, but at the corners of the mountain range, which is the intersection of the territories of the mountain god and the land god.

Going further up the mountain, it belongs to the territory of the mountain god; going further out of the mountain, it belongs to the territory of the land god.

That's why it has been hidden for so long and has not been discovered by the mountain gods or the land gods.

Fairy Yu, I am not telling you this intentionally to shirk my responsibility.

But it is to let you understand that the Black Dragon Demon King is by no means an ignorant wild monster.

He knew Shinto very well.

Even the cave for temporarily storing women and children was chosen so carefully, how secretive must his own hiding place be?
Of course we looked for more than eighteen caves.

The City God announced the news to the entire territory, and every land god and mountain god received the notice.

I personally brought several Gong Caos with me to meet with them one by one, talk to them in person, and carefully observe their expressions to make sure they were searching seriously and not colluding with the evil spirits. "

Li Xianzhi asked, "White Dragon King, do you have any news?"

The White Dragon King shook his head and said, "The Black Flood Demon King is indeed cunning and cautious. He didn't find any clues."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Li's already frank expression became even brighter, and his back straightened up. When he looked at Xiao Yu, there was a clear indignation in his eyes: "Look, is it because the ghosts and gods in our City God's Office are not serious? Didn't the White Dragon King find any trace of the two hundred demon generals?"

Xiao Yu said faintly: "Li Wupan, you are right about one thing at least. The Black Dragon Demon King is unexpectedly familiar with the way of God!"

Uncle Li was not happy about being recognized, but felt upset instead.

Her unexpected familiarity with Shintoism was a hint that the ghosts and gods were in collusion with the Black Dragon Demon King.
“Fairy Yu, the Black Dragon Demon King has been roaming the Flowing Sand River for decades. He is a famous demon god in the West. His Taoism and wisdom are incomparable to those of ordinary demons.

He has tens of thousands of demon soldiers and generals under his command, and his territory covers thousands of miles on both sides of the Liusha River. He has almost established a demon country. He is equivalent to a 'Demon Emperor of the Immortal Dynasty'!"

Xiao Yu said: "No matter how powerful he is, he is just a foreign dragon. No matter how weak you and I are, we are still local tigers.

I don't expect the 'sitting tiger' to kill the 'dragon crossing the river'.

I just want to know the whereabouts of the 'Dragon Crossing the River'.

As a 'sit-on-the-ground tiger', it is normal and natural that he can't even do this? "

Uncle Li wanted to refute, but the words in his heart were stuck in his throat and he could only let out a helpless sigh.

Her words were unpleasant to hear, but they were true.

It’s normal that you can’t defeat the Black Dragon Demon King.

The Black Dragon Demon King brought three hundred demon soldiers and generals into Western Shu, which was a huge force.

This group of monsters committed evil deeds, harmed people every day, and caused a lot of noise.

But it is really unconscionable that they didn't even notice where the goblin was.

"Fairy Yu, we are definitely a tiger sitting on the ground, but the time is too short to achieve any results. Don't be anxious. We haven't found it yet, but that doesn't mean we have given up the search. We are still looking for it, and we will find the magic dragon sooner or later.

If the evil dragon sends out evil generals again, they will kidnap and harm people in the territory of Western Shu.

We must locate him faster.

If he is careful and doesn't dare to harm the people of Xishu again, we don't have to worry." Uncle Li said softly.

In any case, Yu Fengxian's efforts to eliminate the evil in Western Shu is 100% in the interests of their Li family.

As long as she can really kill the magic dragon or even just block it, instead of causing a big mess and killing herself, and causing them to be retaliated by the angry magic dragon, he will definitely stand on her side.

No matter how bad her attitude was or how sarcastic her tone was, he didn't care.

Li Xianzhi asked: "Will the Black Flood Demon King receive the news and leave Yingxiang Mansion?

The Dragon Palace and Water Palace may appear near Longtou Town.

Although Longtou Town is within the territory of Yingxiang Prefecture, it is not far from the nearby counties.”

He looked at his uncle and said, "Since Yingxiang Mansion has already started a large-scale investigation, why not expand the scope.

Notify the surrounding prefectures and let the city gods be on the alert."

Uncle Li nodded and said, "Burn a few copies of the petition and I will send a message for you in the name of the 'Grand Commander of the Demon Suppression Division'."

Li Xianzhi said: "Xiao Fengxian, it seems that we can only wait for news and can't do anything. Why don't you take a night's rest first? You and your old friend have met again after a long absence, and you should have a lot of intimate things to say.

The Guanyun Pavilion next door has prepared food and drinks, you go first, I will come later."

"What happened to San Gouzi? When did he get lost? You guys don't seem to be in a hurry?"

On the way to Guanyun Pavilion, Xiaoyu asked Sister Cui'er.

"I was extremely anxious, but there was no point in being anxious because I couldn't find anyone."

Cui Er sighed, leaned close to her ear again, and whispered, “Actually, this is not the first time.

San Gouzi was very smart. Less than half a year after birth, he was able to learn to read and write.

His father personally taught him to learn. He could speak fluently at the age of two and was like a little adult at the age of four.

Now he is eight years old (in lunar years), and I can't control him or talk him down.

Two years ago, he suddenly disappeared for the first time and was nowhere to be seen for two whole months.

We were terribly worried, but fortunately Taoist Master Yunqing had not yet passed away and told us that San Gouzi would be blessed with good fortune and no disaster."

Glancing at Shuilong Taoist, White Dragon King and others, Cui'er paused for a moment and continued, "By the way, you know that Taoist Yunqing passed away last winter.

He was still thinking about you before he died! He gave me the robe made of the skin of the Sky-Swallowing Toad for safekeeping."

Xiaoyu guessed that there was another hidden story behind San Gouzi's "disappearance", which was probably the result of his identity in his previous life, so he didn't ask any further questions.

"I heard from Divine Doctor Min that after I finish my work here, I will go to his grave and look for him myself."

"What are you looking for?" Xue Cui'er asked curiously.

"Find the dog meat Taoist priest. Even though a person is dead, his soul still exists. He has only been dead for less than half a year. If he has not rushed to the underworld to reincarnate, we will definitely find him in the tomb." Xiao Yu said.

"I don't think you can find him. He must have been reincarnated." Cui'er said.

"Have you looked for him?" Xiao Yu looked her up and down again. "Your internal strength training is very good, but your Taoist energy is a little shallow. I guess you haven't mastered many Taoist techniques."

Cui Er heard this and immediately showed an embarrassed and helpless expression on her face, "It's been almost seven years since you taught me the 'Five Thunder General Sword'. I've barely comprehended the sword's meaning, the Immortal Martial God has disappeared, and I only know two Taoist spells: the 'Rejuvenation Talisman' and the 'Golden Sword Talisman'.

Until now, I still have to rely on Xiaoqiang to enter the ghost world and the underworld.

However, I didn't go to see Taoist Master Yunqing.

He himself said that before he died he told the Taoist priests in Xianyun Temple that the Black and White Impermanence had come and wanted to take him to be reborn into a wealthy family.

He told them not to be sad and not to waste money preparing a Feng Shui site, a grave, paper people and paper horses for him, as it was not necessary.

Now when we want to visit his grave, we have nowhere to go because there is no grave at all.

Even the bodies were almost thrown into a mass grave to be fed to wild dogs.

He asked for it himself, saying that after eating dog meat all his life, he must feed his body to dogs, otherwise his legs would be bitten off by wild dogs in the next life.

Although he said so, the Taoists in the temple could not "betray their master and destroy their ancestors".

Just burn him to ashes and bury him under the ginkgo tree in the backyard."

Taoist Shuilong sighed, "In terms of the attainment of Xiantian Yishu alone, there are only a few people in the entire Xisha Region who are better than Brother Yunqing.

There must be a reason why he asked his disciples to throw away their stinking skins.

The Taoist priests at Xianyun Temple may have done something bad with good intentions.”

Xiao Yu asked: "The Taoist priest is also good at divination. Can you tell the approximate location of the Black Dragon Demon King?"

Taoist Shuilong smiled bitterly and said, “My level is only good enough to set up a fortune-telling stall in front of the temple and not starve to death.

It is far from enough to divine with the great powers of the Black Dragon Demon King."

Xiaoyu stopped and looked up at the sky.

The sun hasn't set yet, it's just after five in the afternoon. The weather is very good today, with bright sunshine and clear blue sky.

She was moved and said, "Please wait a moment, I will give it a try."

"Try what? You can tell fortunes and find out the fate and position of the magic dragon?" Taoist Shuilong asked curiously.

“I know a little bit about divination, but if I set up a stall in front of the temple, I’m sure everyone will starve to death.”

Xiaoyu smiled and pointed to the sky, "I'm looking at the air."

After she finished speaking, she did not bend her knees, and a strong wind suddenly arose, carrying her up rapidly, and soon she reached a height of a hundred feet.

You don’t know until you see it. When she saw it, she was shocked.

"Oh, I can see so far!"

Six years ago, on the top floor of Tianbaoju in the east of Tianmen Town.

She looked to the west and could even see the gate guards dozing on the city gate tower twenty miles away.

Now she was in the west of Yingxiang Prefecture, and she saw the guards on the west gate tower of Tianmen Town again.

At this time, the distance between them was more than fifty miles!
Xiaoyu hasn't opened his magic eye yet, he's just looking around in normal state.

One reason was that the weather was good today and the visibility was extremely high; another reason was that she was flying high enough.

But the main reason is her own change.

Open the magic eye!
Xiaoyu's eyesight improved again, and Yingxiang Mansion, Tianmen Town, and even the surrounding villages and manors were all within her field of vision.

Even if you can't see the details, at least you can get a general idea of ​​the shape.

You can look at the qi.

When she started the Qi-gazing technique, her eyes were covered with a bright silver light.

The scene within the field of vision immediately changed dramatically.

The people and landscapes quickly blurred until they disappeared, and she could only see thick "gas clouds".

Too much "qi" connected together to form a "cloud".

It’s like standing on the Tiandu Peak of Huangshan Mountain and watching the rolling sea of ​​clouds.

However, the sea of ​​clouds seen from Tiandu Peak were fairy-like white clouds (white mist), but what Xiaoyu saw at this moment was a grayish-white "cloud of air".

"Hey, it seems a little dark in the east"

Xiao Yu took a quick look around and didn't see any obvious "evil spirit". There was only a dark greyish aura in the east that seemed to be there and not there, looming.
