Before the 11th, Li Xiao received a call from Daoist Chen, the head of Baiyun Taoist Temple.
After hanging up the phone, she frowned slightly. "Is the corpse aura raging?"
Daoist Chen told her that zombies had appeared in some places in Xiang Province, and some villagers had been bitten because of it. Although the local head of Qingping Taoist Temple, Ke Qingqiu, had rescued them in time, he had not caught the culprit. Ke Qingqiu had also asked for help from other Taoist temples, and Daoist Chen and the others had already prepared to go to the local area to take a look.
Zombies?
Li Xiao naturally could not turn a blind eye to this matter, so when Daoist Chen asked her, she agreed immediately. But speaking of zombies, she remembered the red zombie she knew who always cheated his elders. Li Xiao had his contact information before, so she could ask him.
They were all zombies, and he might know the origin of the zombies in Xiang Province.
However, before she could find the red zombie, the red zombie came to her door crying. The red zombie usually did not like to come out during the day, but today, he came to look for her under the hot sun. It was obvious that there was something important.
"… My father and grandfather are missing."
The red zombie's expression was anxious, with obvious worry.
"I called their phone, but it was turned off."
The corner of Li Xiao's mouth twitched. This zombie was quite up-to-date. Not only did he chase after celebrities, but he was also very good at high-tech products.
She asked, "How long have they been missing?"
The red zombie hung his head dejectedly. "It's been two weeks."
Li Xiao asked again, "Do you know where they went?"
"Q City. A crosstalk master they liked had a nationwide crosstalk performance, so they chased after him to see it. "
"…"
Li Xiao did not know what to say about this family. Should she say that they were indeed a family! Even if they had become zombies, it did not affect their enthusiasm for chasing celebrities. The older ones ran to follow crosstalks, while the younger ones ran to follow concerts.
"I couldn't contact them five days ago. At first, I thought that their phones were out of battery, or that they accidentally lost their phones — my father's phone was often stolen. But these days, I couldn't get through to him. Usually, they would tell me that they were safe every day. "
The red zombie was about to cry. Their family basically cultivated with the help of moonlight or Yin Qi, and they had never used blood before. However, many Daoist priests and monks did not know about this. When they saw that they were zombies, they would shout to kill them. Therefore, they usually acted very low-key. If it wasn't for the fact that that crosstalk master was his grandfather's idol, they wouldn't have left S City.
Although he was very confident in his father and grandfather's strength and knew that ordinary Celestial Masters couldn't hurt them at all, Hong Jiang couldn't help but worry.
"What a coincidence."
Li Xiao looked at Hong Jiang and said in a deep voice, "I received news yesterday that zombies have appeared in Xiang Province and villagers have been killed. I wanted to ask if your family knew what kind of zombies were there. "
One had to know that Q City was not far from Xiang Province.
"It can't be Dad and Grandpa." Red Zombie suddenly raised his head and said with certainty, "Dad and Grandpa wouldn't do such a thing!"
"I believe you too."
Li Xiao had seen the two of them before. Their cultivations were not weak. What was rare was that their auras were clean and upright. If he continued like this, he might be able to attain the Dao one day.
"It's just that your family members are now missing, and something like this has happened there. I'm worried that someone is deliberately framing you. "
Hong Jiang's lips trembled, and he became more and more flustered, "Then, then what can I do?"
Although he was born as a zombie, he was well protected by his elders since he was young. The only Daoist priest he came into contact with was Li Xiao, who had no prejudice against other races. This caused him to be quite naive. When he encountered conspiracies and machinations, he was immediately caught off guard.
Li Xiao made the final decision, "When the time comes, you can go with me and take a look. Maybe we can find some clues."
"… Okay." Hong Jiang could only do so now.
Li Xiao booked an extra ticket and let Hong Jiang accompany him as a disciple of Yunxiao Guan. In any case, other people didn't know how many disciples there were in Yunxiao Guan. However, Hong Jiang's appearance was too eye-catching. At a glance, one could tell that he was a zombie and had a certain level of cultivation. However, this was not a problem for Li Xiao. An illusion was enough to solve the problem.
After her original body returned, Li Xiao's illusion could be said to be at the peak of perfection. When she used the illusion seriously, even Cang Hai couldn't distinguish it clearly, let alone other people.
The abnormal redness on his body was concealed by the illusion, making him look like a handsome young man. He touched his face curiously. Li Xiao wasn't sure whether other Daoists would recognize Hong Jiang's face, so she slightly changed his appearance. It was a bit like pinching his face, which was quite fun.
After pinching his face, Li Xiao looked at the dazed Hong Jiang, and her eyelids twitched. Oh no, the face she pinched looked a bit like Cang Hai! Although it wasn't 99% similar, it was 70% to 80%.
This time, Li Xiao didn't call Cang Hai to go with her. Sparrow Spirit wanted to accompany her, but the Orange Cat came back.
The Orange Cat took Sparrow Spirit to the dungeon every day. She played until she didn't know what day it was and almost gave up on the update in her hands. As the saying goes, once you enter the game, you are as deep as the sea. From then on, the update is like floating clouds. In this case, Li Xiao certainly wouldn't bring Sparrow Spirit with her.
Besides, she was going there for an important matter, not for a vacation.
On the day of National Day, Li Xiao arrived at the place and stopped a taxi to go to Qingping Guan Temple.
She didn't know much about Qingping Guan Temple. She only knew that the current head of Qingping Guan Temple, Ke Qingqiu, was only 23 years old this year. After her father passed away at the beginning of the year, she inherited the temple. Qingping Guan Temple was considered prosperous in the local area. There were many disciples under its name, unlike Li Xiao who only had Sun Rui. The original Daoist Ke also took in several disciples. Under such circumstances, Ke Qingqiu was able to stand out with such a young qualification. Her strength could be considered extraordinary.
After all, strength was the absolute truth.
When Daoist Chen told her about this, he sighed with emotion that sooner or later, it would be the era of the young people.
As soon as Li Xiao arrived at the Taoist temple, a delicate-looking little Taoist boy welcomed them in. She also saw the head of Qingping Guan Temple, Ke Qingqiu.
Ke Qingqiu was beautiful and had a pair of peach blossom eyes that were born with affection.
Her lips curled into a smile. "Is it Daoist Li?"
Her gaze fell on the red zombie beside Li Xiao, and a trace of joy flashed in her eyes.
What was she happy about?
Li Xiao nodded slightly. "How's the situation now?"
Ke Qingqiu lowered her eyelids and revealed a bitter expression. "More and more people have been poisoned by the corpse poison. I asked the villagers to stay in the temple to recuperate. After the poison is detoxified, I will send them down the mountain."
Daoist Yang, who was quite familiar with Li Xiao, came out to welcome her when he heard that Li Xiao was coming. Hearing Ke Qingqiu's words, he couldn't help but praise, "Daoist Ke is really generous."
Ke Qingqiu showed a determined expression. "This is what we should do. I have been studying for a long time and finally came up with a detoxification prescription. It finally worked. As long as they take it for seven days, the poison in their bodies will be expelled so that they will not become zombies. "
Zombies were even worse than zombies. They were just walking corpses without consciousness and instinctively chased after flesh and blood.
Daoist Yang said, "This is already very good."
Li Xiao said, "But we have to find the culprit as soon as possible."
Ke Qingqiu nodded and said in a subtle tone, "I already have some clues here, but I still need to verify them." She looked up at Li Xiao. "I heard Daoist Yang often mention you. He said that your magic power is profound and your Taoist skills are extraordinary. I want to see if you can help me see if this prescription can be improved. "
She took out a yellowed prescription from her pocket.
Li Xiao looked over and said, "I don't know much about medicinal herbs. But I have a friend who knows these things. I can ask her to come over. "
The friend she was talking about was Little Green. Little Green was indeed familiar with all kinds of medicinal herbs. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to make so many ointments without professional and systematic guidance.
Li Xiao called Little Green and helped her book another ticket for the same day.
A female monk next to Daoist Ke said with some dissatisfaction, "Not everyone can have such talent like Shimei. Don't find some messy people to drag us down."
Li Xiao just glanced at her lightly, which made the woman tremble all over, as if she had been stared at by something terrible.
Ke Qingqiu said reproachfully, "I know that Shijie has confidence in me, but there is always someone better than you. I believe that Zhenren Li's friend must be like her."
Li Xiao was now sure that Ke Qingqiu looked gentle and easy to get along with, but for some reason, she seemed to be very unconvinced by her. Was it because she was too famous? But she couldn't be blamed for this. She was so powerful that she couldn't stop others from praising her.
Li Xiao didn't care about their desire to win or lose.
After the phone call, she found that Hong Jiang's body was trembling slightly, as if she was afraid of something, and her forehead was sweating.
Li Xiao's heart skipped a beat. She used the Heart Calming Formula on Hong Jiang, and Hong Jiang felt better.
Li Xiao followed Ke Qingqiu to see the poisoned villagers. They were lying on white beds, their faces ashen and full of death aura. Fangs could even be seen in their mouths. Many Taoist priests of Qingping Temple were chanting scriptures to calm their instinctive impulses. Li Xiao had just learned from Ke Qingqiu that the Taoist temple had taken in 94 villagers. Fortunately, Qingping Temple was big enough to accommodate so many villagers.
When the villagers saw Ke Qingqiu, they struggled to get up and saluted her. In their hearts, Ke Qingqiu was undoubtedly their savior.
Ke Qingqiu hurriedly told them not to get up. The most important thing was to have a good rest. Her every move was worthy of everyone's praise. It could be said that she had the heart of a Bodhisattva.
Li Xiao's heart skipped a beat. Could her staff, Yuxiu, absorb corpse Qi? There was no problem with Yin Qi, but she was not sure about corpse Qi. She had never tried it before.
At this time, a strong medicinal fragrance spread. The people of Qingping Temple had already boiled today's medicine and were ready to feed it to the villagers.
Li Xiao said, "Wait. Let me try first and see if I can remove the corpse Qi in their bodies faster. "
Ke Qingqiu was stunned for a moment. "Then I'll leave it to you." She did not stop him, but stood to the side.
The cloth surrounding Yuxiu fell down and floated in the air. The bamboo-like Yuxiu landed on the villager closest to the door. In the next second, Yuxiu bloomed with a dazzling light that made people unable to help but close their eyes. Then, the light converged, and at the same time, the corpse Qi surrounding the villager was swept away.
Li Xiao was pleasantly surprised. "It really works!"
This weapon refined by Cang Hai was really too useful!
She had easily solved the matter of the corpse aura, but it was true that Ke Qingqiu had said before that there was no such thing as a famous person.
Ke Qingqiu was dumbstruck.
Daoist Yang chuckled at the side. "That's good too. The villagers don't have to drink seven days of bitter medicine."
