"What Brother Zixian said is reasonable, and I am thinking too much."

After hearing what Luo Wenchang said again, Lu Rui's originally uneasy expression completely eased.

"Brother Lu, I will go around in this yard and search carefully. You should go and do your business first. If there is anything, I will notify you."

After taking a few casual glances at the backyard, Li Bai looked at Lu Rui with a smile.

"Okay, you can watch slowly, I will go and ask the servants to prepare meals for you."

Lu Rui answered very readily.

"Brother Lu, don't prepare the food, we have to go back early."

"I want it, I want it. The two of you come here from afar and don't even eat food. I, Lu Rui, will be laughed at."

Luo Wenchang was about to refuse, but Lu Rui left without looking back.

"I have heard that Brother Lu is hospitable. When I see you today, I am really worthy of your reputation."

He smiled bitterly, then turned his head and walked towards Li Bai.

At this time, a bronze mirror had already appeared on Li Bai's hand.

"What is the purpose of this bronze mirror in Brother Taibai's hand?"

Luo Wenchang couldn't help asking curiously.

"This is the 'Twenty-Eight Constellations Yin and Yang Mirror' that can identify the location of the demonic energy."

Li Bai stared at the bronze mirror in his hand with his eyes fixed on his face and said without looking back.

This bronze mirror was tricked by him from the Qingyang Palace Xuanchen real man a few years ago, but he didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.

Luo Wenchang's heart trembled when he heard this:

"The man from Yushu is right. This Taibai brother is really from Qingyang Palace. I, Qinglian Zhenwu Pavilion, seem to have really picked up the treasure this time!"

He still has some knowledge if he doesn’t have the ability to cultivate. These twenty-eight constellations Yin and Yang Mirrors are treasures of the Qingyang Palace. How could he not know?

"Brother Zixian, come and have a look."

Just as he was thinking this, Li Bai, who was not far from him, suddenly spoke.

"Here you come."

He immediately rushed over in three steps and came to Li Bai.

“Finally found.”

Li Bai pointed to the bronze mirror in his hand.

“What was found?”

Luo Wenchang looked over with confusion.

I saw a small iron needle on the bronze mirror in Li Bai's hand. One end of the iron needle was painted in vermilion red. At this moment, the end painted in vermilion red was pointing to a peach tree in the corner of the backyard.

"This iron needle can tell the location of the demonic energy, and even the subtle demonic energy can be distinguished."

Li Bai explained.

Luo Wenchang immediately understood.

"You mean, there are really monsters in this yard?!"

He said nervously.

If there is really a monster, the bounty of ten taels of silver will not be worth it.

"You find a servant to dig, maybe you can dig something under the peach tree."

Li Bai did not deny or affirm.

Luo Wenchang nodded, then called several servants from the mansion and started digging.

This excavation immediately alarmed Lu Rui in the mansion and returned to the yard.

"There's something really underneath this!"

However, before he could ask what happened to Li Bai and Luo Wenchang, the servants who were digging under the peach tree suddenly exclaimed in surprise, and then an extremely unpleasant stench floated out of the corner of the wall.

Luo Wenchang has seen the world, but when he suddenly smelled the stench, he almost vomited.

Li Bai, who was prepared for a long time, had already taken out a facial towel and blocked his nostrils, and watched leisurely.

"I really dug up something. Brother Taibai really predicted things like a god, but I just don't know if it was the cat."

Luo Wenchang pinched his nose and came to Li Bai.

"It should be that cat."

Li Bai looked at the corner of the wall and said without looking back at the servants who were still digging in full swing.

"But, how could that cat have evil spirit..."

"It's a rust tiger, it's a rust tiger, master, it's a rust tiger!"

Luo Wenchang asked halfway, and the servants once again exclaimed a burst of exclamations.

"Let me take a look!"

The head of the family, Lu Rui, heard the sound, then pinched his nose and walked forward with the crowd.

Li Bai and Luo Wenchang also followed him at this time.

A servant was picking a rotten corpse out of the pit under the peach tree, and then carefully placed it in front of Lu Rui.

Although the corpse has almost rotted, the yellow and white fur is still clearly visible.

"Oh... it's a rust tiger."

The head of the family, Lu Rui, sighed and finally confirmed.

...

On the way back to Zhenwu Pavilion, Li Bai and Luo Wenchang rode slowly on horseback.

"Brother Taibai, thanks to you this time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to find the cat corpse for ten days and half a month."

Luo Wenchang said with great emotion.

"It's also good luck. If you die outside and the demonic energy spreads, even if you have a bronze mirror, it will be very difficult to find it."

Li Bai's face was calm.

After finding the rusty tiger's body, the first reward case that Li Bai received was successfully completed.

As for how this cat died under the peach tree, who actually attacked it, that was the government's business, not what the Zhenwu Hall should do.

Moreover, Li Bai has just received a prompt to complete the system copy task.

"But I still don't understand why the cat is covered with demonic energy."

Luo Wenchang looked at Li Bai in confusion.

"There are only two possibilities for cats to be contaminated with demonic energy. Either the cat is killed by the demon, or the cat itself has become a demon."

Li Bai said.

He has not been in vain in the Qingyang Palace these years. He is at least theoretically not inferior to other cultivators to catch monsters, but he has not practiced it much.

"According to Brother Taibai, no matter how this cat died, there must be a monster who entered the Lu family before?"

Luo Wenchang felt a little chill when he heard this.

"That's right."

Li Bai nodded.

"Why did Brother Taibai not mention this at the Lu family just now?"

Luo Wenchang was a little surprised.

After the cat's corpse I was looking for, Li Bai did not explain to the Lu family about the cat's evil spirit.

"They paid ten taels of silver, and Brother Zixian was thinking about working hard for others?"

Li Bai gave Luo Wenchang a blank look. He actually wanted to say, "How many dishes are you drinking like this?"

“Brother Taibai said, what he said…”

Luo Wenchang also looked ashamed when he heard this.

In fact, he also knew that "mediating nosy" has always been a taboo for demon-slaying masters. Many demon-slaying masters die on things that have nothing to do with the mission.

"It's not entirely a matter of money,"

Li Bai shook his head and then said:

"The cat has been dead for at least half a month. In this half month, the people in the Lu family have been in peace. There are only two possibilities for this situation. One is that the monster has left long ago. The other is that the monster has no malicious intentions towards the Lu family."

Speaking of this, he turned to look at Luo Wenchang:

"We intervene at this time, just to make them panic."

"Brother Taibai actually thinks so carefully. Fortunately, I am a few years older than you, so ashamed..."

Luo Wenchang's face felt a little hot when he heard this.

"Okay, Brother Zixian doesn't need to think too much. No matter what, at least we have already handled this case."

When he arrived at a fork in the road, Li Bai stopped and said goodbye to Luo Wenchang:

"When you have a new case, Brother Zixian remembers to come and tell me that we will leave today."

"Okay, I will definitely go out and visit more in the next few days and find more cases."

Luo Wenchang also bowed to Li Bai, then turned his horse's head and galloped towards the road on the right.

Seeing Luo Wenchang walking away, Li Bai suddenly let out a long sigh, then took out a tuft of yellow hair from his cuffs.
