Chapter 44 Scum
After receiving the task, Yun Kong immediately set off under the guidance of the black flag, and arrived at Chiwa Town where there might be evil spirits in the morning of the next day.
Since evil spirits still do not appear during the day, the domineering ability to find evil spirits has been sealed by the system, and he does not have Tanjiro's super sense of smell that can distinguish the smell of evil spirits, so he can only wait for the night to come.
During the time before sunset, Yun Kong didn't waste any time, and went to a nearby [hidden] army stronghold to consult intelligence personnel for information related to this mission.
"Lord Yunkong, according to the analysis of our intelligence department, there is a high probability that the mysterious disappearance of the villagers in Chiwa Town is related to evil spirits."
The intelligence officer in charge of receiving Yunkong took out a document and handed it to Yunkong, which recorded the recent events in Chiwa Town.
"One month ago, Mr. Suiting, an antique dealer, mysteriously disappeared at home. Later, his body was found in the forest outside the town, leaving only one head;"
"21 days ago, Mr. Kobayakawa, the owner of the clothing store, mysteriously disappeared while having dinner and drinking with his friends in the private room of the tavern. His body was also found in the forest outside the town;"
"Thirteen days ago, Mr. Nanjo, a major grain and oil merchant, also mysteriously disappeared at home. According to the memories of his guards, there was nothing unusual before he disappeared;"
"Five days ago, Ms. Xiaopu, the owner of the wagashi shop, disappeared mysteriously while she was making dim sum in the back kitchen. According to the store's waiter, there was only less than a minute between when Ms. Xiaopu entered the back kitchen and found her missing. ;"
"Two days ago, members of the Intelligence Department Yone and Shimkawa went to the forest outside the town to look for clues. They haven't returned yet, and they seem to have encountered an accident."
After reading this information, Yunkong agrees with the intelligence personnel's speculation that only the evil spirits who have mastered the strange blood ghost technique can take them away without anyone noticing.
However, in addition to confirming that it was a ghost, Yun Kong also found a strange clue and asked the intelligence personnel: "Have you found out that the missing persons recorded in the data are all merchants in the town. Is there any relationship between them?" contact?"
"This." The intelligence officer obviously didn't realize this, and replied with some embarrassment: "Sorry, we haven't investigated this aspect yet."
"It doesn't matter," Yun Kong said with a smile, without scolding the intelligence personnel, "According to the current clues, it can be roughly concluded that the forest outside the town is an area haunted by evil spirits. At night, I will go there directly to look for evil spirits."
……
Unknowingly, the time came to night, and the figures of Yunkong and Heiqi appeared in the forest outside the town.
Yunkong took out a few dried fish that Heiqi loved to eat from the system space, and after feeding it to Heiqi with shining eyes, he ordered: "Heiqi, high-altitude investigation, please."
"Okay, master."
Hei Qi nodded, flapped his wings and flew into the sky, looking for traces of the evil spirits, and Yun Kong himself was not idle, choosing a different direction from Hei Qi's search.
Not long after, the black flag flew back from afar, and while hovering above Yunkong's head, he said: "Master, I have found the target, over there, follow me quickly."
"Okay, lead the way."
Yun Kong regained his spirits, and after following the black flag for a certain distance, he saw the evil ghost eating humans by the side of a boulder covered with moss.
"what?"
Just when Yunkong was about to go forward to kill the evil spirit, he suddenly heard footsteps approaching from a distance, so in order to avoid startling the snake, Yunkong stopped moving and was going to see if the person coming was the evil spirit's companion.
The evil ghost who was eating also heard the approaching footsteps, threw away the bone with little flesh and blood in his hand, and looked in the direction of the person expectantly.
After a few breaths, a middle-aged man carrying a sack appeared in Yunkong's sight panting.
However, to Yunkong's surprise, this middle-aged man was not the evil spirit he imagined, but a very ordinary human being.
"Strange, humans dare to come here to meet evil spirits."
A strange look flashed in Yunkong's eyes, and he stood still for the time being, ready to see what tricks they were up to.
"Uchiyama, you guys are too late."
On the other side, when the evil spirit saw the middle-aged man, he immediately stood up and took the sack from his shoulder.
"Ah, it's really fragrant."
The evil ghost opened the sack, bowed his head, took a deep breath, and praised with a fascinated face: "As expected of a newborn baby, Uchiyama, this is much more delicious than the ones you let me tie up .”
"Hehe, as long as you are satisfied."
Seeing that the evil ghost was satisfied with the 'food' he brought, the middle-aged man named Uchiyama showed a flattering smile and asked hesitantly: "Your Excellency Zeka, I brought you the food you asked for, so I want it."
The evil ghost Zeka glanced at Uchiyama, and said disdainfully: "Don't worry, I already asked about it before eating that woman, the ledger is buried in the backyard of her house, three feet south of the largest cherry blossom tree .”
"Huh, that's great, now they don't have any evidence of me accepting bribes, and all the troubles can be solved."
After listening to the evil ghost Zeka's answer, Uchiyama heaved a sigh of relief, then showed a flattering smile, nodded and bowed his head and said, "Your Excellency Zeka, don't worry, as long as my position as mayor can be kept, I will They will bring two babies to honor you."
"Hmph, you're smart, if you dare to lie to me, then I'll eat you."
The evil ghost Zeka snorted arrogantly, then waved his hand to signal Uishan to leave, and couldn't wait to enjoy the food brought by Uishan.
"Thunder's Breath · Four Shapes · Far Thunder!"
Yun Kong, who watched all this from the sidelines, naturally would not just sit back and watch the baby be eaten by Zeka. He rushed to Zeka's side in an instant, slashed at his neck with a knife in one hand, and grabbed the sack containing the baby with the other.
The evil ghost Zeka was far inferior to Xiaxiansi, even Xiaxiansi's younger brother. Facing Yunkong's sudden attack, he had no time to react, and was turned into ashes and dissipated in the forest by him.
"Shh!"
After eliminating the evil spirits, Yun Kong grabbed the sack that fell from Zeka's hand and carried out the unconscious baby inside.
"Fortunately, it's not a big problem."
Relying on part of the medical knowledge attached to medical ninjutsu, Yunkong did a simple examination on the baby and found that the baby had no physical problems, but fell asleep under the influence of the medicine.
The sudden change caused Uchiyama to sit down on the ground in shock, pointing at the sky with trembling arms, and asked in panic, "Who are you?!"
"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that you colluded with the evil spirits and even gave the baby as food to the evil spirits. It is absolutely unforgivable."
Yun Kong didn't have the slightest liking for this kind of crazy guy, he ignored the other party's begging for mercy, and sent him to hell with a single blow.
