Terrifying Heavens: I Slay Demons by Painting Faces
Chapter 41 Xie Qiming Arrives
He didn't delve deeper into Liu Chenghao's matter, since the man had already made peace with himself.
His girlfriend's body, the cause of her death, and other issues also need to be addressed by the other party.
After all, there are no demons or monsters in the courtroom... and Liu Chenghao did indeed kill his girlfriend with his own hands.
Chen Hengyi also told the other party to call if needed, and that he was happy to provide financial support.
Chen Hengyi returned to Zhoucang Temple just before dawn the next day.
When he saw the statue of Zhou Cang on the altar, he felt a strange sense of peace in his heart.
After he entered the room, he saw that the kitchen light was on.
The sound of him entering the room startled the two of them.
After showing concern and looking him over carefully, Ah Qing and his wife breathed a sigh of relief when they found that Chen Hengyi was indeed unharmed.
"It's too risky for you to go alone. Thank goodness for Zhou Ye's protection."
Chen Hengyi nodded; going alone was indeed a bit risky.
As she spoke, Sister Qing took a handful of leaves and swept them over Chen Hengyi: "You've been in contact with those ghosts all the time, so you're carrying bad luck with you. I'll sweep you with pomelo leaves and the bad luck will be gone."
Chen Hengyi obediently let the pomelo leaves sweep over his body.
Then, Chen Hengyi went to a room where Chen Duoduo, Li Ruonan's daughter, was lying on the bed.
Chen Hengyi first checked and found that the condition was stable and there was nothing wrong.
"It seems that as long as we stay in Zhoucang Temple and don't cause any trouble, nothing will happen."
Next, Chen Hengyi needs to deal with the Great Black Buddha Mother, but before that, he needs to take a look at the Black Book.
Back in his room, he took out the black book.
Sever ties with past karmic debts, lest evil spirits wreak havoc.
The text was flickering slightly, the next second...
The comments appeared word for word.
[Slay the demons, destroy the evil wombs; though people are troubled now, the karmic ties are severed. Miscellaneous matters continue; what in this world is perfect? Only my heart finds peace.]
Chen Hengyi pondered, reflecting, "I certainly didn't do things perfectly. I shouldn't have wasted time going to Liu Chenghao's house... As for Xiao Chen, I should have knocked him unconscious immediately instead of trying to persuade him."
If he were to knock someone unconscious, he might be charged with assaulting a police officer... but if he acts quickly and discreetly, none of that matters.
But this is all for later.
"Stop talking nonsense, let me see the reward."
[Ruyi Outfit: Requires the outfit to be within the "Ruyi Carrying" item. With a thought, it can be instantly changed without interruption.]
Upon seeing this, Chen Hengyi realized that if this were combined with his face-changing skills, wouldn't it be equivalent to unleashing a powerful attack on the spot?
Chen Hengyi immediately decided to give it a try, and the costumes he brought this time were those of Emperor Huaguang and Zhong Kui.
He walked to the center of the room and looked in the mirror.
With a thought, in the blink of an eye, the Zhong Kui opera robe was on her body, while the original set of clothes was stored in [Ruyi Suishen].
Chen Hengyi was surprised; he himself hadn't figured out how he had done it.
"Huh?" This left him a little confused.
He tried a few more times, and then decided not to waste his time on this. He didn't care about the principle; as long as the effect was there, that was enough.
All he knows now is that he can change his appearance on the spot. Although the mask is not as good as the painted face, it is enough.
Afterwards, Chen Hengyi rested for a while and then immediately went to find Master Aqing.
He said, "I'll take Chen Duoduo to the Fude Temple to see Tiger Lord right now. Can we contact him beforehand?"
Ah Qingshi naturally wouldn't refuse. He looked down and pressed a few buttons on his phone, then said, "Hey, Ah Long, are you free right now? I'm here..."
After a moment, Master Qing hung up the phone and nodded to Chen Hengyi: "You can go over now."
Sister-in-law Aqing carefully carried the unconscious Chen Duoduo out of the house and whispered, "Be careful on the road. This child is in your hands now."
Chen Hengyi took Chen Duoduo, wrapped her in a blanket, and felt her faint breathing. She was perfectly healthy and wouldn't die.
Master Aqing handed over a peace charm: "The master of Fude Palace is named Along, whom I know from the past. You can just call him Master Along. Although Tiger God is the protector of children, you should still worship him sincerely."
"I understand." Chen Hengyi put away the amulet, glanced at the solemn statue of Zhou Cang in the hall, and bowed.
Just as he was about to leave, a car suddenly drove up outside Zhoucang Temple.
Before the car had even come to a complete stop, a man rushed out of the driver's seat.
It was Xie Qiming!?
As soon as Xie Qiming got out of the car, his eyes seemed to be on radar, instantly locking onto Chen Duoduo in Chen Hengyi's arms.
"Duoduo!"
Chen Hengyi was stunned. How did this person find this place?
Xie Qiming rushed over, his face revealing his exhaustion.
"Duoduo!"
Chen Hengyi had met Xie Qiming when he kidnapped Li Ruonan and her daughter.
He knew this man was a good person, a true man, which was why he didn't want to drag him into it, lest he be cursed to death by the Great Black Buddha Mother like in the original story.
But now, the other party has actually come here on their own! Why did they have to come right when he was about to leave?
No, it's wrong in a million ways!
Chen Hengyi instantly became alert and shouted, "Stop right there!"
Xie Qiming stopped, glanced at Chen Duoduo, then gritted his teeth and turned his gaze to Chen Hengyi: "What did you do to her!"
Chen Hengyi suspected that the other party had been bewitched by the Great Black Buddha Mother, which was why they came to him at such a crucial moment.
Chen Hengyi took a step back and handed Chen Duoduo back to Sister-in-law Aqing to hug.
The next second, he moved and rushed out the door.
"I don't care what you are. Since your arrival is suspicious, then come and pay your respects to Master Zhou first!"
Xie Qiming was visibly startled. He had never expected Chen Hengyi to speak up so directly, and he had no time to resist.
In the blink of an eye, the sandbag-sized fist was already in front of him, and to his horror, the fist was surrounded by a flame.
"What is this? I...."
With a thud, Xie Qiming's head jolted, his vision blurred, and he felt dizzy.
Then Chen Hengyi dragged the other person down and pressed him in front of Zhou Cang's altar.
Chen Hengyi forced Xie Qiming to kneel before the statue of Zhou Cang, and shouted sternly, "Speak! How did you find this place?!"
"After I went to the police station to report the case, I met a policeman surnamed Li, and then I went to the traffic police station to check the surveillance footage... and followed this car..."
Chen Hengyi quietly released his hand and coughed lightly: "Then you should pay your respects to Master Zhou first."
A moment later, Chen Hengyi burst into laughter and helped Xie Qiming up, saying, "Oh dear, brother, it was all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
Xie Qiming rubbed his swollen eyes and sighed, "I am Duoduo's guardian. She has been kidnapped by you, and I have to find her. I have to take responsibility for her."
Xie Qiming looked around and asked, "Where's Li Ruonan? She..."
Chen Hengyi suddenly interrupted, saying seriously, "Let's talk about Duoduo first."
