    The carriage was swaying on the road, shaking people drowsily. Qiu Ruan was nestled in Mo Li’s arms, holding little Chuchen who was sleeping soundly. Liu Qi and Huiguo were sitting outside driving the carriage. They were rushing to Kongyong County.

    A few days ago, Mo Li received a message from the Immortal Shanhe of Kongyong County, saying that there have been a lot of strange things happening in Kongyong County recently and that he can’t deal with them. Please go and have a look.

    Mo Li counted with his fingers and found that there was indeed something wrong, so he planned to go there.

    Although it was inconvenient to bring his wife and daughter with him on the road, he was even more worried that they would not be with him, so he took them with him.

    As for Liu Qi and others, when they heard that he was going to collect demons, they didn’t even need to say hello. On the day of departure, they all followed him one by one.

    Liu Qi is also very arrogant. If he follows him out of Beijing like this, won’t he worry that Su Shaoyou will cause trouble while he is gone?

    Mo Li asked he about his worries, Liu Qi waved his hand and said: “So what if I just let him go for once?”

    Liu Qi said generously, but he was snickering in his heart. Su Shaoyou was pestered by the eldest princess every day and couldn’t get out of bed, so he didn’t have to worry. What’s more, he also ordered the secret guards to secretly give aphrodisiacs to the eldest princess, and never let Su Shaoyou have the opportunity to get out of bed and cause trouble.

    Seeing Liu Qi’s malicious smile, Hui Guo silently looked away, without thinking, just mourned for Su Shaoyou.

    A few days later, a group of people arrived in Kongyong County. They entered the county town in the afternoon and stayed at an inn called Liu Ke. They stayed at the Liu Ke Inn on purpose. Shanhe said that this inn was unusual.

    Shanhe said that a year ago, Liuke Inn was not an inn, but a restaurant, and the business was not very good. Later, he got Zhang Fangzi from somewhere, and a longevity soup attracted many people. The business gradually became prosperous, and the boss expanded it into the current inn. I heard that a restaurant will be built soon.It doesn’t sound like there’s anything unusual about it, but He’s longevity soup is a bit unusual.

    I don’t know when his longevity soup has become popular among people, and Shan He is also very curious. On that day, he turned into an ordinary person and came to Liuke Restaurant to try his family’s famous longevity soup. Unexpectedly, he couldn’t stop eating it. If he didn’t eat the longevity soup once a day, he would scratch his head and panic. He couldn’t quench the desire in his heart. He couldn’t help but eat it every time. But after many times, he found that as long as heAs soon as he eats longevity soup, his cultivation will regress, but he cannot control his desire to eat it, which is extremely abnormal.

    He quietly investigated with people in private, but every time he saw longevity soup, he was attracted by the fragrance of longevity soup. Regardless of eating a bowl of longevity soup and forgetting the original intention, he had no choice but to ask for help from Mo Li.

    As Shanhe said, he would subconsciously lick his lips every time he mentioned the three words “longevity soup”, which shows how much he likes it in his heart.

    In fact, when Li Moli saw he, he saw some clues. He was an earthly immortal, a member of the immortal family. Judging from his appearance, he had the tendency to turn into a demon. His whole body was full of death and yin energy. He didn’t look like an immortal, but more like a big devil.

    Li Qiu could tell, and Qiu Ruanruan even more so, that the situation was already bad for Shan He. If he delayed for some more time, there would be no way to save his life. Not only would his cultivation be ruined, but his biggest worry was that he would be possessed by a demon. Once he was possessed, the people around him would be doomed.

    Earthly immortals are like this, but what about ordinary people?Wouldn’t it be more serious?But they didn’t notice anything strange when they entered the city.

    Qiu Ruanruan hugged Chuchen, gently pushed the window, and looked down. She was still afraid of scaring people with her red eyes when she went out, so she still wore a curtain when she entered Kongyong County. At this time, she took off the curtain and looked down. There were not many people walking on the street, but they were all normal. However, Kongyong County was surrounded by death and was very depressing.

    In the early morning, I was licking my little finger in my mother’s arms, completely unaware of the adults’ concerns.

    Shanhe also said that Kongyong County didn’t know when it started, and it was busier at night than during the day. Many shops now only open night markets, such as Liuke Inn, which now only opens night shops. The rest of the time is the inn business, and foreigners staying in the shop can have priority to taste the longevity soup.

    Li Li took the daughter from Qiu Ruannuan’s arms, wiped the little one’s saliva, and said, “Then let’s try He’s longevity soup tonight.”

    Xiao Chuchen looked at his father with his big round eyes, grinned at his lips because of the movement of his words, and looked at his daughter’s smiling face. The expression on Mo Li’s face couldn’t help but soften. He took out a bottle of incense burner ash and a yellow talisman from the Qiankun bag and gave them to Shanhe, asking him to burn the yellow talisman and mix the talisman ash and incense ash with water to drink, which would remove the bad luck from his body.

    Shanhe quickly responded and drank as he said. The dark water filled his stomach, and his stomach suddenly started to churn. Then he vomited uncontrollably, vomiting out a lot of smelly filth, which smoked everyone out of the room.

    Liu Qi was gagging and asked: “What’s going on? Why does it stink better than feces!”

    Before Mo Li could answer, Daoxu came out from nowhere and said, “Filthy things naturally stink extremely.”

    Xiao Chuchen was so smoked that he cried loudly, feeling sorry for someone in the sky. It was strange that Li Moli didn’t think twice before acting, but he couldn’t intervene yet, so he could only act in a hurry.

    Hui Guo took out a handful of mugwort and tangerine peel from the baggage in her hand, twisted it into a ball, and lit it with a fire stick to dissipate the smell.

    By the time Shan He finished vomiting, the whole room had been so smoked that it was impossible to enter. Fortunately, Shan He was able to use magic to clean it up, so that the waiter who brought water did not notice anything strange. However, Li Guo still asked Hui Guo to help Shan He smoke mugwort and tangerine peel in the room for half an hour to remove the smell. They also took this time to go around the city.

    There are fewer people in Kongyong County than in other counties, and the streets are deserted.Liu Qi asked the shopkeeper of an open silk and satin shop on the pretext of shopping. The shopkeeper was kind and kind, saying that everyone had been accustomed to going out for a walk at night, and it would be lively at night.

    Liu Qi was a little confused. If it wasn’t lively during the day and was lively at night, wouldn’t it be a ghost town?

    Liu Qi was about to leave when he was called by a man. The man asked him if he was a foreigner and if he was here to find someone.

    Liu Qi was stunned, then he agreed, saying that his eldest brother was a traveling businessman, and he had not returned home after being away for several months. His sister-in-law was very worried, so she asked him to go out and look for his eldest brother. He asked all the way and got here.

    The man looked around, pulled he aside, and said, “Then I guess you won’t be able to find your brother.”

    Liu Qi didn’t believe it: “Brother, please don’t scare me. I can’t stand your scare.”

    Seeing that he didn’t believe him, the man said: “I am a gentleman from Sifang Academy. If you can trust me, just go to a place with me and I will tell you carefully.”

    Liu Qi bowed his hands and said, “Of course I can trust you, brother.”

    Liu Qi followed he and left, secretly making a gesture with his hand behind his back, and the secret guard quietly left to inform Mo Li and them.

    The shopkeeper of the silk shop wiped his eyes. Just now he seemed to have seen Hu Jianyi, who had been dead for a year.

    Liu Qi followed him to the Sifang Academy not far away. There were not many people in the academy, and other people would call him Mr. Hu when they saw the man. Seeing this, Liu Qi felt relieved and followed the man to the library of his academy.

    The man said his name was Hu Jianyi, and he was a native of Kongyong County.

    Hu Jianyi took out a book from the bookshelf, turned to a certain page and handed it to Liu Qi, saying, “I heard you were asking the shopkeeper about the Liuke Inn. I happen to know something. The Liuke Inn is unusual. I’m afraid something happened to your brother here.”

    After hearing what he said, Liu Qi’s expression became serious. When he looked at the book he handed over, his smile faded and he said, “Eel in the Moon?”

    “Exactly, the moon eel eats carrion and grows. It is an extremely poisonous thing. I don’t know what method Liu Ke Inn used to make longevity soup. After eating it once, people can’t stop.”

    Liu Qi looked up at he and asked, “How do you know this?”
