Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 71

Trapped in the tree trunk, Lin Ji frowned slightly, but he was not in a hurry to break through the current predicament.

This spirit does have some ability. If you look at it as a monk, at least it is a third-level cultivation base, but for him now, it can't do any harm.

What makes him strange is that this kind of spirit is not weak anymore. Even if the body is a big tree, it can still take the essence of plants and trees cultivated by itself, and leave on its own. Why do they want to harm people in the city?

You must know that such spirits are too dangerous in the city, and it is safer to find a place to take root in the mountains and forests, and it is also beneficial to cultivation.

Folks often say that the rumors of ginseng dolls encountered in the deep mountains and old forests are like this.

When the little ginseng becomes fine, it can run away and become invisible at every turn, which makes people puzzled.

Even if this third-level elf was born in the city, it should have left the place where the crowd gathered earlier, but this elf did the opposite. What is it trying to do?
"Ghosts don't go to practice in the mountains and forests, but instead harm people in the city?" Lin Ji instinctively felt that this matter was not easy.

Gradually, the surrounding pressure has been increasing.

Lin Ji's thoughts were interrupted by this pressure, and a little dissatisfaction appeared in his heart.

"court death."

With a thought, the aura in Lin Ji's body began to rotate, faintly resonating with the heaven and the earth.

In just one breath, a pure force surrounded his body.

"North pole skill, Tianshu star power."

The exercises that I just learned just happened to come in handy at this time.

Lin Ji felt as if he had infinite strength and inexhaustible strength.

Just trying to move it a little bit, I could clearly hear the sound of the surrounding wood breaking.

"You little monster, you're not good at fighting, and you dare to come out and make trouble." Lin Ji sneered, and raised his hand to break the shackles.

But before he could make a move, there was another whirlwind in front of his eyes, and he had already been released by the spirit.

Not only that, Lin Ji also keenly noticed that the aura in Zheng's garden was rapidly gathering towards the roots of the big tree, and was still moving slowly.

Lin Ji frowned, and he could tell that the spirit wanted to run away.

"Can you run away?"

The long sword was unsheathed, the light of the sword jumped above the edge of the sword, and a sharp aura swept all around.

In the past, the sword light was transformed by the aura of Lin Ji's Haoqi Jue, but now this sword light has a little more star power.

As for how powerful it is, Lin Ji felt that it would be a good idea to use this monster to try it out.

Lin Ji flipped his wrist to hold the sword in his backhand, then threw the long sword out suddenly, and went straight to the place where the aura was the strongest in the spiritual exploration.

Immediately afterwards, there was a scream.

"what!"

Lin Ji stepped forward and held the long sword in his hand again.

But just when he was about to continue his attack, a green villain emerged from the soil.

"My lord, spare my life, Senior, spare my life"

Seeing this green villain, Lin Ji was a little dazed for a moment.

This is the first time he has seen the real body of the ghost, and he has learned about it from ghosts and ghosts before.

And spirits seldom appear outside the mountains and forests, so they are not common.

The villain in front of him was only about half a meter tall, and the clothes on his body were made of leaves and bark, which looked rather funny.

There is no nose or ears on the face, only two eyes and one mouth are left on the round face.

The head is bare, and there are two leaves on the top of the head.

The spirit looked at Lin Ji timidly with its back against the big tree, hunched over, ready to run away.

Lin Ji put the long sword on the neck of the spirit.

The spirit began to tremble in fright, its lips were pale, and its body was very weak.

This little thing doesn't seem to have any external injuries, but Lin Ji's sword just now has hurt its origin, otherwise it wouldn't be so frightened that it came out to beg for mercy.

"It was you who caused trouble in this garden and killed the two old men of the Zheng family?" Lin Ji asked coldly.

The ghost quickly shook his head.

"My lord! Senior! No."

Before he could finish speaking, footsteps suddenly sounded at the garden entrance behind him.

A voice with a somewhat familiar smile came into Lin Ji's ears.

"This is the new chief arrester, Mr. Lin, right? Tian Jiufeng, the deputy arrester, has met Mr. Lin."

Lin Ji turned his head and looked at the person coming.

"Tian Jiufeng, Guan Chengnan's deputy chief arrester?" Lin Ji asked casually after looking him up.

"It's the subordinate."

"Wait aside." Lin Ji turned his head, ready to continue questioning the spirit.

But Tian Jiufeng stepped forward quickly, came to Lin Ji's side, and said to the monster: "Non animal! I said where did you escape, and you dare to come to Zheng's house to harm people!"

Lin Ji obviously found that the fear on the ghost's face became more and more obvious after seeing Tian Jiufeng.

But before he could ask, Tian Jiufeng quickly explained: "Master Lin, this monster was raised by my Tian family, and it was used to take care of the spiritual field at home. Who would have thought that this little thing would escape from it not long ago?" go out."

"Spirits in the third realm, can your Tian family support them?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows.

"Responding to my lord, this spirit was bought from the capital, and it was restrained when it was bought." Tian Jiufeng replied subconsciously.

Lin Ji asked again: "Since there is a restriction, how did it escape?"

"This, this." Tian Jiufeng was at a loss for words for a while, unable to give an explanation for a long time.

Lin Ji didn't bother to pay attention to him, stretched out his hand and grabbed the two saplings above Jingguai's head, and lifted them up.

"It doesn't matter if it belongs to your Tian family or not. This little thing has harmed people. Naturally, you can't just say a few words to solve this matter."

Tian Jiufeng's face changed slightly.

"Master Lin, this ghost is worth a lot, and our family also spent a lot of money."

"Let the Tian family send out two people to pay for the lives of the second elder of the Zheng family, and I will return this spirit to you, how about it?" Lin Ji sneered.

"How can this work?" Tian Jiufeng could tell that Lin Ji couldn't speak at all.

He simply set his sights on Zheng Yunxuan.

"Patriarch Zheng, the Tian family is willing to give you a satisfactory explanation on this matter, so please don't pursue it any further, how about it?"

Hearing this, Zheng Yunxuan was silent for a moment, subconsciously looking at Lin Ji.

But found that Lin Ji was also looking at him.

"If you dare to nod, I'll charge you with collusion and kill you right away, and leave 10 taels of silver to your family, how about it?"

Zheng Yunxuan quickly looked away, not daring to speak.

Lin Ji looked at Tian Jiufeng.

"Deputy Tian arresting the head, using power to suppress people is not easy for this officer! There is still something strange about this matter, and this officer will definitely investigate and find out."

"Master Lin, why are you doing this?" Tian Jiufeng's face also became gloomy.

Lin Ji pulled a perfunctory smile from the corner of his mouth.

"There's no such thing as an official here who doesn't raise an official and don't investigate. I can't see this matter, but I saw it, and no one cares about it. That's me."

While speaking, footsteps sounded outside again.

Lin Ji turned his head and found that it was Sun Hai who arrived with the other two deputy head arresters.

One is Li Wushuang who has already met, and the other is a young man under 30 years old.

Presumably, it was Chu Qin, the last deputy head arrester who came out of the sect to practice.

After so many days as chief arrester, Lin Ji finally recognized all the arresters in the city until now.
