Demon Slayer Starts From the Proficiency Panel

Twenty miles north of Chaotian Capital is Wendeng County. This county is located at the intersection of four post roads and is adjacent to the Changxia River, a tributary of the Chaotian Canal. Merchants, fleets and escorts traveling from south to north have greatly promoted the county. the county's economy.

Therefore, other industries in Wendeng County are mediocre, except for inns, brothels, and wineries that are evergreen, which have become the three major local characteristics over time.

Recently, a county citizen in the county reported to the local yamen, saying that a local inn had an unfortunate accident and fell into the Changxia River half a month ago.

This was just an accident, but the strange things that happened later made Wen Deng County panic.

After hearing the news, the Paotang family came to collect the corpse, and temporarily placed the corpse in the courtyard of their home, but they never thought that the corpse would disappear overnight.

The family searched the whole Wendeng County but found nothing, and in the end had to leave it alone.

But in the following days, many strange things happened in the county one after another. Many people fell into the water and died when they passed by the Changxia River at night. The number of victims was as many as seventeen.

After the county magistrate's arresting officer intervened in the investigation, he learned from several companions of the drowning deceased that the victim did not accidentally fall into the Changxia River, but a strange person in the water grabbed his ankle and dragged him into it.

The magistrate of Wendeng County realized that this must be an evil and disorder, and the manpower strength of his magistrate was not enough to handle the matter, so he wrote a letter and sent it to the Fumo Division.

I hope that Fu Mosi can send someone to solve it, and never have future troubles.

This is the letter Su Qianqian gave to Ning Xiu.

Since entering the championship camp, Ning Xiu has never left Chaotian Capital. This time he was ordered to go to Wendeng County, which can be regarded as a long-term experience and an eye-opener.

In the champion camp, in addition to teaching martial arts, equestrian is also one of the skills that the apprentices must learn, and they will train every seven days. Therefore, Ning Xiu was a little bit knowledgeable about horseback riding.

Borrowing a horse from Fu Mosi, Ning Xiu immediately rode away from Chaotian Capital.

The location of Wendeng County is actually easy to identify, and you only need to go all the way along the post station outside Chaotiandu to reach it easily.

After Fengfan spent a day sleeping in the open, the outline of the city walls of Wen Deng County appeared in Ning Xiu's eyes.

This is a small but delicate county town. There are many red lanterns hanging at the gate of the city wall, and wind chimes are attached to them. Whenever someone passes by, you can hear the sound of ding ding dong dong.

This time, Ning Xiu did not wear the black-silver chainmail that he received from the Demon Lord. He felt that the outfit was too eye-catching.

Not to mention the common people, even the evil spirits know that you are Fu Mowei after seeing you. This kind of feeling that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light is not what Ning Xiu likes.

Facts have proved that this choice is still very correct. When Ning Xiu rode into the city, no one paid attention to him.

When I came to Wendeng County, the first thing was to report to the yamen, so that I could learn more information that was not written in the letter, so that it would be convenient for Ning Xiu to investigate.

When he arrived at the gate of the county government office, before the two guards could ask questions, Ning Xiu took out his iron horse Fumowei token and said, "This time, the Fumo Division sent me to your county to investigate and take me to see Ben. County magistrate."

The Fumo Division was an independent force from the imperial court. Even the iron horse Fumowei had a terrifyingly high official position. The guards did not dare to neglect, and immediately led Ning Xiu to the yamen.

Soon, in the study room of the county government office, Ning Xiu met Dong Fu, the magistrate of Wendeng County.

This is a fat man with a bloated body. The flesh on his face is squeezing his eyes into squinting eyes. When he sees that there is no shortage of delicacies from the mountains and seas on weekdays, it can be seen how good the economic situation of Wen Deng County is.

"Who are you?" Looking at this unfamiliar boy, Dong Fu put down the "Jin Ping Yan Nv" in his hand and asked inexplicably.

The guard hurriedly walked to his side and explained, Dong Fu just got up and said with a very simple and honest smile: "I didn't know the adults were coming,

I can't welcome you far, and I hope the adults will forgive me. "

"You're welcome, show me all the files about the drowning case in your hands, and try to solve it as soon as possible, so that no more innocent people are killed." Ning Xiu sat down on the mahogany chair in front of the desk and said calmly.

"Yes, yes." Dong Fu immediately brought a lot of files from the bookshelf behind him and placed them in front of Ning Xiu.

Taking advantage of this time, Ning Xiu couldn't help looking at the book "The Beautiful Girl in the Golden Bottle" that Dong Fu had read earlier.

I saw that the book was two fingers thick, with apricot-yellow writing, and a vivid picture of a man and two women as mandarin ducks on the cover. All three were only 5% dressed.

The general posture is that a man is sitting on the edge of the bed, a woman is behind him, and a woman is washing face cream in front of him. It is really hard not to make people suspect that this is a pornographic book.

When Dong Fu came over with another pile of files, he happened to see Ning Xiu's curious eyes, and immediately smiled: "If you like it, just take it and read it. This book is not bad."

"How could Ning read this kind of book, I read Spring and Autumn." Ning Xiu declined directly.

What a joke, I didn't even read "Bai", "Shao" and "Door" in my previous life. Can I read your big business yellow book today?

After taking the dossier that Dong Fu had placed, Ning Xiu carefully checked it.

Including the first Jotang who drowned in the Changxia River, a total of 18 people drowned in Wendeng County in the past half month.

These dossiers record the identities, family backgrounds, and daily circumstances of the eighteen people.

"People frequently drown in the Changxia River. Since some people say that there is something in the river that drags passers-by into the water, you can make more detailed inquiries, such as whether anyone has seen the thing that dragged people into the water and what it looks like." Ning Xiu looked up at Dong Fu and asked.

Dong Fu scratched his three-layered chin: "Sir, someone has indeed seen it, but you may not believe it. That person said that Li Ming was in the water."

"Li Ming?"

"It's the running hall where the body disappeared after drowning."

Ning Xiu fell into contemplation. Running hall is a dead person. How could he drag someone into the water? There is only one explanation, that is, this guy became evil after he died.

After reading all the files compiled by Dong Fu, Ning Xiu stood up and said: "Okay, I have already understood the general situation, I will go to Changxia River to see."

"Good lord." Dong Fuwang said to the guard who led Ningxiu in the room, "You go with the lord. If the lord needs anything, you will do your best to achieve it, and you must not neglect it."

"No, I'm used to acting alone." Ning Xiu refused and walked out of the study.

When Ning Xiu left the study, he disappeared from his eyes. Dong Fu sat back in his chair, picked up the "Jin Ping Yan Nv" on the table and muttered: "Spring and Autumn? What kind of book is that, is it more exciting than my book?"

...

Since the accidental drowning of the Changxia River happened one after another, ordinary people have rarely dared to approach the Changxia River, except for the laborers who carried them at the ferry.

For fear of being dragged into the water by the rumored drowned ghost, he lost his life in vain. Therefore, today's Changxia River is extraordinarily deserted.

The seventeen victims on the file were all killed at night, so Ning Xiu booked a room in Wendeng County, and did not go out to Changxia River until nightfall.

When he came to the river, Ning Xiu performed the Spiritual Eye Observation Technique. If there was a drowned ghost in the river, he could find it at a glance.

However, no matter how Ren Ningxiu checked it, the Changxia River seemed extremely normal, and there was nothing wrong with it at all. This was an ordinary long river.

No way, he could only go straight along the river.

Cuckoo!

After walking half a column of incense by the river, a large number of bubbles suddenly appeared on the originally calm lake. After these bubbles appeared, they quickly swam towards Ning Xiu.

"Yeah!" Now Ning Xiu's senses are far sharper than before, and when he heard the movement of the water, he felt it in his heart.

Could it be that the drowning ghost appeared?

So Ning Xiu pretended to be calm, and continued to move forward, only waiting for the right opportunity to choose to shoot.

Whoa!

When the bubbles came to the river, a pale arm stretched out from under the water and grabbed Ning Xiu's ankle.

The wet touch was clinging to his own leg, and Ning Xiu knew that this was definitely a drowning ghost, and immediately kicked up, directly pulling the owner of the arm out of the river.

Through the night light, Ning Xiu finally saw what this thing looked like.

A man who was swollen all over!

His eyes have been swollen by the river water, and the two eyelids are tightly pressed together, making it impossible to see the eyeballs at all.

When Ning Xiu violently pulled him out of the water, the drowned ghost opened his mouth wide in fright. His mouth was full of sharp teeth, each of which was not the shape that a normal person should have.

boom!

Without any hesitation, Ning Xiu immediately punched the opponent in the face. The red pure anode punch was a nemesis for Evil.

The face of the drowning ghost suddenly turned red and smoked, making a rustling noise. After eating the pain, the first reaction of the drowned ghost was to flee back to the Changxia River.

But how could Ning Xiu give him this chance, he immediately poured his inner strength into his right palm and grabbed the drowning ghost's throat.

Ka Ka Ka!

The drowning ghost's throat was pinched by Ning Xiu. After he got out of the Demon Suppression Prison, Ning Xiu's strength became even stronger. Such a ninth-rank evil spirit could not be his opponent at all.

In the end, with the throat bone completely broken, the Drowned's body stopped moving.
