I became a fox girl and was captured by the True Dragon Saint

Everything seemed perfectly normal.

It seemed that all the weirdness only attacked Jiang Ke'er, while others were immersed in the prosperity and comfort and were completely unaware.

38. The second half of the day

This is an extremely terrifying feeling of loneliness and helplessness, as if one is in a different space from the familiar world in front of one.

He could see everything clearly, but apart from Qiao Qianxue, no one else could understand his fear... It was so close, yet so far away.

There is a weirdness that goes against common sense everywhere.

Jiang Ke'er even noticed that the fortune-telling stall owners never took their eyes off her.

Their gazes seemed to penetrate the crowd and follow me as I moved.

This made Jiang Keer feel like a thorn in her back.

"Want to scare me?"

Jiang Ke'er's beautiful eyes suddenly glared at him, and she was so angry that she glared back angrily: "Do you know who my brother is?"

This didn't work, but her voice caught the attention of an acquaintance.

The right gate guard of the prefect's house.

Because of his contribution in solving the case, he has now been promoted from a doorman to a patrol captain.

"Lady Shui Shui, who offended you?" When he saw Jiang Ke'er, he hurried over to greet her with a smile.

"Do me a favor," Jiang Ke'er made up her mind, "arrest all the fortune tellers on this street."

"What's wrong?" asked the patrol captain in surprise.

Jiang Keer repeated the details of the incident.

The team leader did not think there was anything wrong at first, thinking that this was at most a conspiracy to confuse the issue.

But after Jiang Keer took him to several fortune-telling stalls, his expression became serious.

It was an indescribable, eerie feeling of foreboding.

Those stall owners were like puppets with pre-programmed language flows; all of their demeanor, expressions, and even tone of voice were carved from the same mold.

And all this was directed at Jiang Ke'er only. If anyone else went up to ask, there would be nothing unusual.

There was nothing unusual when asking other questions.

This situation will only be triggered when Jiang Keer goes forward to calculate her marriage and the first half of her life... Everything goes normally when calculating other items.

It was as if someone had predicted Jiang Keer's problem and set up a series of language mechanisms before she arrived.

Because of her stubborn temper, Jiang Keer never asked about the follow-up content of "You don't have enough skills, you have to pay more money to reveal the secret."

She thought these guys might be a gang, and she didn't want to be a victim of collusion or a scapegoat whose pockets were taken, so she never compromised.

Now it seems that I may have to compromise... Even if the other party is a gang, such a dedicated performance is an eye-opener for me and is worth the expense.

"Where's the back?"

This time, after the other party got stuck, Jiang Keer slammed a bill on the stall.

Oddly enough, these fortune tellers were not afraid of the arrival of the patrol captain at all.

Logically speaking, their profession is similar to that of a swindler, and they would feel natural pressure when facing officials.

But they didn't.

After Jiang Keer asked the question, the stall owner in front of her suddenly lowered his head in the shadows, rolled his eyes fiercely, and showed a strange and sinister smile.

Two lines of blood flowed from the corners of his eyes.

"escape!!!"

He suddenly burst into a loud roar, stood up and shouted excitedly.

At the same time, his face was ferocious and he pushed towards Jiang Ke'er like a mad devil.

"You can't beat him!"

"Let go of your obsession! It's your only way to survive..."

"You can't beat him!!!"

After saying that, he staggered and fell to the ground, his whole body twitching wildly.

"what--"

"Hurry up and save people!"

Screams were heard from all over the night market.

Throughout Jinguan City, all the fortune-telling stall owners fell down almost at the same time, twitching all over and their condition was unknown.

They seemed to have received a great shock at the same time, blood flowed from all seven orifices, and they became unconscious in an instant.

"Save people first."

Jiang Ke'er didn't have time to think about the meaning of the other party's words, and immediately squatted down to check the fortune-telling stall owner's condition.

His breathing was rapid, and his heartbeat was furious...but it was slowly coming down.

Vital signs also tend to gradually return to normal.

It seems that the bleeding from all seven orifices just now was the result of a sudden increase in blood pressure, which caused the capillaries to rupture.

But the other party showed no signs of poisoning or illness.

This stall owner couldn't be healthier.

Why this happens is a complete mystery.

Rather than a natural disease, it is more like a momentary overload of mental energy, resulting in disharmony between the soul and the body.

"He's fine. Big brother, please arrest him first and take him to the jail for questioning." Jiang Ke'er stood up and ran to other stalls.

With this person's physique, enduring a brief mental overload is not a problem at all.

But it was different for the old lady that Jiang Keer met at the beginning - Jiang Keer still remembered that the first stall owner was a very old man.

This kind of thing can be fatal for the elderly with fragile blood vessel walls.

as predicted.

The other person's symptoms were not just serious. When Jiang Ke'er came to her side, she was bleeding from more than just her seven orifices.

There was also extensive bleeding in the brain, and the blood vessels in the brain shattered like explosions, and he had entered a state of brain death.

With my current strength, I'm afraid I can't turn the situation around.

Jiang Keer saw that the old woman's soul had floated out.

She gritted her teeth.

"Mother-in-law, I'm sorry! As compensation, I will help you build a good home in Mingzhou!"

Jiang Keer reached out and took out a book from the old woman's soul.

Then the old woman's soul was temporarily stored away.

Jiang Ke'er has forgotten where the ability to retrieve books with her soul came from, but she still remembers the function of this ability.

The book carries the old woman's life memories, from her birth to the last moment of her life.

Jiang Ke'er decisively turned to the last few pages...

"What the hell!"

Her little hands trembled and she almost dropped the book.

The rest of the book was in good condition, except for the last page, where all the words were crossed out with a scarlet pen.

Dense and chaotic brushstrokes covered all the words, and it is impossible to know who hastily wrote down the brush to cover everything up.

Jiang Ke'er had no choice but to look at other pages.

Judging from the whole book, all the old woman's life experiences are normal.

——She has no children, her business is not doing well, and her life has always been difficult. She relies on this fortune-telling stall to support herself.

——Fortunately, she is quite hardworking. She would go to free bookstores to browse divination books and learn divination skills, so it is not a problem for her to support herself.

——She is well-read and has studied the divination techniques of various religions.

But none of that explains what happened today.

It seems that we have to start investigating from other survivors.

Jiang Keer sighed, helped the old woman close her eyes, and stood up.

Qiao Qianxue saw that she looked a little heavy.

In fact, there are two problems that are bothering Jiang Keer now.

Today's fortune-telling is just one of them.

Another thing made her feel extremely confused at the moment.

——The ability to take books from the old woman’s soul just now made her think of her own identity.

She is Hou Tu, in charge of reincarnation. This is not in the shattered half of her soul, so she has not forgotten it.

But she vaguely remembered that everyone around her said: That girl named Jiang Keer is also Hou Tu.

Oh my god! This is a big problem!

39. Memory

She didn't know much about "Hou Tu Jiang Ke'er" and all the news she had heard was hearsay.

These few words were not enough for her to construct an image, nor could she figure out what kind of connection existed between herself and the other party.

Next, we need to pay attention to more intelligence.

In the end, she decided to put the matter of "Hou Tu Jiang Ke'er" aside for the time being, first investigate the abnormal situation tonight, and then ask more about "Jiang Ke'er"'s situation.

"Please find out what these people have in common." Jiang Ke'er said to the patrol captain.

Since I don't know how to investigate the case anyway, I might as well start with their commonalities. Maybe I can find the connection between them.

"Jinguan City is short of manpower, and it will take a lot of time to interrogate everyone one by one. I'm afraid it's too late tonight... or you can go and rest first." said the patrol team leader.

"Wait, let's skip the torture. After all, nothing serious has happened. Besides, it will disrupt the normal judicial process," Jiang Ke'er said hurriedly. "When they wake up, just ask them about their past experiences. I guess they themselves don't know the situation clearly."

"Thank you very much for your understanding, lady!" The patrol captain breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

He was really afraid that Jiang Ke'er would demand severe torture to treat these people.

With Jiang Keer's current reputation and relationship with the prefect, if she really asked the prefect for help, under the banner of "these people are spies from Southern Xinjiang", it would be difficult for the prefect to refuse.

But that is very disruptive to the process.

Fortunately, Jiang Ke'er understood the greater good and did not abuse her fame for personal gain, thus embarrassing the government.

This immediately made him and his men admire "Miss Jiang" even more, and they thought that this thoughtful way of handling things was no less than that of Hero Taibai.

He is indeed a righteous man admired by the great hero Taibai!

"However, if possible, after the interrogation, it would be best to lend me the transcripts." Jiang Ke'er said embarrassedly.

"No problem. The prefect has appointed you as the special consultant of Jinguan City. It is completely in line with normal procedures for you to handle this case." The patrol team leader bowed respectfully.

"Thank you very much!"

The officers and soldiers took the unconscious stall owners away, and the casual Yi Lan was responsible for taking care of them.

Jiang Ke'er doesn't need to worry about the rest of the matters for the time being.

The crowd dispersed and the night market gradually returned to tranquility.

Jiang Ke'er held Qiao Qianxue's hand.
