"Who the hell is this Erlang Shen? He doesn't look that great."

Old Sun snorted and said, "He is one of our village's hostages, a thief. No matter where he goes, people will get annoyed and the people in the village won't pay any attention to him."

" "Eh, Great sir, where are you bringing us to? Aren't the villagers over there catching the fish?"

At this time, under Old Sun's lead, they had already left the village and were walking in a patch of grass. From the looks of it, they were heading in the direction of a forest.

Old Sun chuckled and said, "This is a good place that I found a few years ago. There is a small pond with a large amount of fish trapped inside. It only takes half an hour to fill two fish baskets. No one in the village knows except my son and me."

Like I said, with so many people in the village catching fish, why is it that others are fine, while his son died for no reason? And during the process, no one had seen him fishing in such a remote place.

One had to know, in a place full of human aura, monsters normally wouldn't stay for long. The more remote the place, the easier it was to attract monsters to stay.

"Uncle, when we get to that shallow place, hurry up and leave."

Old Sun replied without turning his head, "Why did you want me to leave? I wanted to catch some fish and bring them home."

"I'm afraid we can't catch fish today. We have to catch evil spirits there." I paused for a moment before taking out a few Demon Slaying Talismans from my pocket and handed them over to Old Sun. "Stick these talismans on the door so that our family members won't leave."

"Little deity, are you kidding me? Where are we going to catch those evil monsters in the middle of the day?"

I scratched my head and awkwardly said, "Little deity doesn't dare to call me that. Just call me Little Tian." It's not certain if there are any monsters in the shallows, but as long as there are any, don't even think about escaping. "

"Sure, I'll listen to you."

After walking out of the short grass, they walked around the dense forest for a while. Old Sun held onto an extremely thick tree, pointed ahead and said, "You can see the shore from this opening. You two be careful."

Qing Qing and I waved at him. Old Sun turned around and left.

I stood far away and looked at the shallows. I didn't sense any Yin Qi. I said doubtfully, "There aren't any traces of evil here. Could we have guessed wrongly?"

The shallows Old Sun mentioned were only one-sided. The river was still as wide as before, but the land on one side was a little low. The river flowed outside and formed a shallow bank the size of a football field.

Water grasses and reeds grew on the surface of the shallows, but they were all very low. If one could see through the water's surface with a single glance, then no evil monster would choose to hide here.

Qing Qing also had a face of doubt. She looked for a while in the shallows before saying, "Looks like we found the wrong direction, why don't we go back first and find a chance to check up on that person called Er Lai. I think he knows something."

"I think so too." I nodded in agreement.

Since this place is different from what I imagined, there is no need for me to continue staying here. I pulled Qingqing by the hand and turned around. However, when I turned around, I saw a strange phenomenon from the corner of my eyes.

It wasn't a shallow beach, but a corner of a dense forest. At first glance, it didn't seem that special, but upon closer inspection, one would find that the leaves there were especially lush and abundant.

Qing Qing noticed that I had stopped, so she followed my gaze and said, "That place is just a forest, what is there to look at?"

"Don't you think that's strange? That leaf is especially lush, as if someone purposely made it."

Qing Qing looked at me and smiled. "I knew that you wouldn't be so willing to leave. Alright, since there's nothing important to do at home, we can go and take a look."

The closer they got to the forest, the clearer the situation became. The leaves were not only lush, but compared to the nearby forest, the growth of the leaves was also very strange. It was as if they were deliberately concealing something.

When we were almost there, Qing Qing and I slowly approached with the help of the tree trunk, trying our best not to make any noise. It took us about ten minutes to reach a distance of less than a hundred meters.

At this moment, they were only ten meters apart, and I could clearly see the situation inside. There was indeed something wrong with the forest, under the lush leaves, there was a very old wooden house, just like a hunter's temporary residence.

Hiding at the side and carefully observing for a while, we didn't hear any movements. Qing Qing and I slowly walked over and directly walked to the front of the wooden house. We saw that the door and windows were boarded up.

What made me even more surprised was that there were remnants of talisman paper on the door and windows. I looked at these talismans and saw that they were all talismans of the Demon Suppressing Talisman type.

"It looks like there are indeed evil spirits here, but who posted these talismans?"

This was indeed strange. Judging from the amount of time that the Demon Suppression Talisman had been damaged, it should have at least been a dozen or so years. Could it be that a few decades ago, there was already a demon here?

At that time, the person who posted the Evil Suppression Talismans, since it was able to trap Yao Xie, then he had the ability to kill him, but why didn't he do so, and only suppressed Yao Xie.

Qing Qing thought for a moment and said, "Little Tian, what do you think is the evil spirit that appeared here?"

"Judging from these Evil Suppression Talismans, they shouldn't be ordinary demons. Otherwise, after the talisman was destroyed and it died, it would have disappeared. Then, I would still dare to continue staying here."

While I was talking, I leaned against the window and peeked inside the wooden house. It was very spacious inside, and I could only see two tall cabinets in the corner. Other than that, I didn't even see a stool.

Qing Qing also looked over and shook her head. "I still can't find anything …"

Without waiting for her to finish speaking, I kicked at the door that was sealed shut and the smell of mold assaulted my nostrils. Fortunately, I was prepared for it and held my breath.

My goal was clear. I walked towards a corner and upon closer inspection, there weren't two cabinets but two dusty skeletons. The one on the left held a long rotted sword hilt.

The skeleton on the right had a Soul Suppressing Talisman pasted on its head. Both of its arms were stretched out, probably trying to pinch the neck.

Judging from the movements of the two skeletons and the remnants of the items, this should be a fight against General Xie. On the left hand was a Daoist warrior, and on the right side was the Evil Demon with the Soul Suppressing Talisman.
