Chapter 289: The Flesh Sword Saint

The case evolved into a situation where only by finding the curse master who issued the curse could one avoid the possibility of becoming a pile of meat paste.

Everyone trembled.

The old woodcutter, who was suspected of being the murderer like Li Changxiao and others at the beginning, came out trembling all over, with a crying tone in his tone, "Who... who is the curse master? Why did he kill us?"

"My precious granddaughter is still waiting for me to go back, I can't die here!"

The old woodcutter was almost collapsed.

Official Xian Tai frowned, and only by solving the case as soon as possible could he avoid casualties as much as possible.

At this time, Dao Ji, who had been deceived by the heartless man in her early years, stood up. She looked at Li Changxiao and pointed the spearhead at him, "You... are the curse master, right?"

"Ah?" Li Changxiao was stunned.

I don't know where to start this.

Dao Ji said coldly, "I have been observing you for a long time. When Master Yu just said that more people would die, the three of you did not show any fear."

"And from yesterday to today, you have been extremely calm, not like normal people being suspected!"

Dao Ji's words really moved many people, and they looked over at almost the same time.

Xian Tai and Master Yu were also like this, casting suspicious eyes.

Mei Sanniang poked Li Changxiao's lower back with gloating.

Li Changxiao thought about it and told everyone that he was just a big heart, and then drank wine and felt dizzy.

The matter of the curse master really had nothing to do with him, and it was a waste of time to suspect him.

His explanation was somewhat effective, but some people still didn't believe it.

Li Changxiao thought about it and put forward several inferences. First, why did the curse master come here from thousands of miles away to curse and kill people randomly.

Second, at what time did the ceremony take place last night? The curse master should have been present when the ceremony was presided over.

But 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 the other two were on the left side.

And if he was a curse master, he would have to go through a long corridor in the middle to perform the curse ceremony, which would be extremely easy to be discovered.

After explaining it.

Many people showed a look of understanding.

So it makes sense.

After listening, Xian Tai also nodded secretly. If it was really a curse master who was performing the curse ceremony.

Then the room of the curse master must be in the room on the right, otherwise it would be asking for trouble. There were about seven rooms on the right side, and eleven jianghu people stayed there.

Xian Tai set his eyes on a jianghu person who lived in the right wing room.

While questioning them one by one, he ordered people to search their rooms carefully.

In the evening.

There was indeed a harvest.

In the room of a thin man, the soldiers found a black Buddha statue.

It was an evil god statue.

Most of the people who worship Taoism to prolong their lives have something to believe in, and the appearance of this evil god statue undoubtedly pushed the thin man to the forefront.

In an instant, everyone looked over.

"I have no grudges against you, why do you curse us!" Dao Ji was furious.

"No... no..."

"I'm not!"

The thin man shook his head and wanted to explain something.

But he saw a man swinging his iron fist and hitting him hard in the face.

In an instant, blood flowed from his nose, and the thin man flew out and smashed a wooden table.

His appearance was horrible.

Immediately, several more people swarmed in.

"Kill him!"

"Just kill him! The curse can be broken!"

I don't know who shouted, and everyone present started to kill.

Li Changxiao frowned, and a palm wind hit out, pushing everyone to the ground in an instant.

The people who had lost their minds were shocked. This person was so powerful.

Master Yu looked at Li Changxiao for a second. This person had a thorough understanding of the acupoints and had opened up many mysterious acupoints, so he was very powerful.

He had made a mistake before, ignoring the presence of such a person.

Li Changxiao looked at the thin man who was beaten unconscious, frowning slightly. There was still something strange about this matter, but he couldn't say it.

Xian Tai thought the case had been solved, and thanked Master Yu solemnly.

Then he ordered people to open the door of the inn and let everyone leave.

Some people were worried.

They were afraid that the curse would still come true on their heads. Master Yu told them that they didn't need to worry about it. One of the secret rules of the curse master of the sacrificial way was that once the curse master was exposed, the curse would be exposed to the sun and the curse would 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. Dao Ji was holding a knife, the old woodcutter's hands were full of grooves, 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 general look inside. It was very clean, as if it had been cleaned.

There are actually many doubts about this place.

But...that's Xian Tai's business.

Since he is free, he should go back to the inn.

The inn has been abandoned for a few days.

I don't know what it looks like.

"Why are you standing there! Come down quickly!"

Mei Sanniang and the cook climbed onto the carriage and shouted to Li Changxiao.

Li Changxiao smiled slightly and carried his bag, "Here we come!"

...

On the flat post road.

A carriage passed by.

Mei Sanniang sat in the carriage, crossing her legs in a coquettish posture and smoking a dry pipe.

Li Changxiao and the cook sat outside the carriage. Li Changxiao held the reins while the cook stared at the snowy scene in a daze.

On the road.

Because the wheels of the carriage were loose, the carriage was forced to stop. It took two hours to repair the carriage and continue on the road.

This carriage was rented. If it broke down, it would cost a lot of money. Mei Sanniang treasured it very much.

It was just boring on the road, so the three of them talked 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 held.

But Li Changxiao didn't know what the ceremony was and what the effect was.

Because he didn't know much about sacrifice.

"You say... are those meat pastes really caused by curses?" Li Changxiao asked in a deep voice.

He has always been interested in such cases.

Li Changxiao thought for a moment, and his eyes swept over 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 seems to be the fusion stage, right? Even you can't sense it?" Li Changxiao asked.

Mei Sanniang raised her eyebrows, kicked Li Changxiao with her legs, and said coquettishly: "Can I still lie to you? I said I didn't sense it, and I really didn't sense it."

"Besides, I'm now self-sealing my spirit, body, and god, isn't it normal that I didn't sense it? That thing didn't come for me, so it's normal that I can't sense it."

"But then again, can a mere curse master really avoid my senses and silently crush people into meat paste?" Mei Sanniang said, pinching her chin, revealing a thoughtful look.

Suddenly.

Li Changxiao pulled the reins hard.

The carriage braked suddenly.

Almost hit an old man.

It was the old woodcutter that he met in the Beauty Fragrance Inn.

He was carrying a sack on his back at the moment, looking at the three people pleadingly, "Young man..."

"The wind and snow here are getting stronger and stronger, and I am old, can you give me a ride?"

"I have fifteen copper coins, all for you."

The old woodcutter pleaded.

The cook was thoughtful.

"Forget it, get on." Li Changxiao waved his hand. There was still some space in the carriage, so it didn't matter if there was one more person.

"Thank you, thank you..."

The old woodcutter nodded frantically.

He just tried a few times and couldn't climb onto the carriage. He stretched out his hand a little embarrassedly and asked, "Young man, can you help me?"

"Of course." Li Changxiao stretched out his hand to pull.

At this moment.

The cook who was just thinking about something seemed to have finally thought of something, and anxiously almost roared: "Don't touch him! He is the Meat Sea Sword Saint!"

At the same moment.

Mei Sanniang reacted instantly.

An indescribable force pressed down on the old woodcutter, and his charming eyes revealed a horrified killing intent!

And the old woodcutter showed a smile on his face.

He quickly grabbed Li Changxiao's hand.

Finally, he touched it lightly.

Because the distance was too close, even if Mei Sanniang and the cook exploded in an instant, they couldn't stop it.

"Hehe."

"Die."

The old woodcutter showed a smug expression.
