Chapter 148 - Hundred Ghosts Burial Ground, Blood Prison Fierce Demon Office
Once we reach the East Ward, Lin Dong asked for our intentions and immediately sent someone to the storage room to retrieve a small tombstone.
I told Zhao Qi to tell him to find the Old He. Although the old man is a money grubber, he is a disciple of the Three Purities Sect.
Not long after, the person who was sent to retrieve the tombstone returned and said a few words to Lin Dong.
Lin Dong's expression instantly became extremely unsightly.
"The tombstone is gone."
My heart thumped, but I didn't have time to ask how the tombstone disappeared. Seeing that Old He was brought here, I asked if I could have a word with him alone.
The tombstone on the roof of the old building had mysteriously disappeared. The thing in the storage room was gone. As the leader of the jail, Lin Dong was embarrassed. He nodded his head, stood up and walked out with a gloomy face.
Listening to me explain the situation, Old He furrowed his brows and asked Blind Liu:
"What's the situation in Dong Jia Village?"
"Hundred Ghost Burial Ground, Blood Prison's Fiendish Land."
"What?!" Old He's body trembled, the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground, "How can a hundred ghosts be buried in such a dangerous place?"
Blind Liu looked at me and shook his head, "The terrain and water channels there have already been filled with blood fiends. Now is not the time to investigate the source, so let's first think of a way to save the villagers. "
Old He focused his attention to think for a moment, and said:
"Even with the ancient tomb's stone, it might not be able to suppress the evil spirits. If we can find the Flexible Jade and bury it in the Evil Demon's position, we might be able to turn the situation around. "
"Flexible Yin Jade?"
I thought for a moment, then told him about the Ghost Head Jade and asked if he could use the Ghost Head Jade to suppress it.
Before the Old He could say anything, Blind Man Liu raised his head and sighed, "No wonder so many ghosts could be buried there. It seems like nineteen years ago, a certain someone had already planned this pernicious scenario carefully."
My heart sank.
When my injuries improved in the hospital, I had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but I couldn't think of anything.
Now that he heard Blind Liu's words, it was as if a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind, and the reflection of the lightning reflected in his eyes was that of a lynx.
After the first two encounters, the goatherd seemed a little out of sorts.
I always thought he was getting old, and that he was going to be a little jittery, and emotionally unstable, and that there were a lot of taboos in it, which was why he was being so secretive.
But after hearing the words of the blind man, I finally thought of the wrong place.
Although the goatherd was old, he had been in the business of holding back treasures all his life, and had experienced many more dangers than the fight for gold. Without careful and rigorous logic, he definitely would not have survived until today.
How could such a person have made the mistake of casually guiding the affairs of Yin and Yang?
Unless, he had done that on purpose …
The Old He said, "Although the Ghost Head Jade hatched in Karakorum, it is not a Dark Flexible Jade. The so-called flexible yin jade, as its name implied, was alive. The one who wore it had to be a yin spirit. Spirits were earth type, so the longer the active jade was worn by the spirit, the more Earth Spirits it would absorb. If one can find a high quality jade with a Yin Spirit that has been worn for more than fifteen years, the effect would be much better than that of the stone tablet. "
I thought for a moment. "I know where the Flexible Jade is, I will look for it!"
Zhao Qi, who hadn't spoken up all this time, looked at me and said:
"If the accident happened in the Dong Clan Village tonight, why did Duan Jiayin send you to the Fourth Hospital?"
Blind Liu rolled his eyes and said: "Anyways, I believe that 'Duan Si Mao' is definitely a two-edged blade."
Old He asked: "Are the headless corpses dug out from the Fearful Land at the Fourth Hospital?"
I nodded.
"In that case, Duan Si …. It's not bad that the girl surnamed Duan wants you to go to the hospital. "
Old He rolled his small eyes and looked at me. He lowered his voice and said, "The situation is bad, there's no way someone would directly kill someone …"
I jolted. "Could it be..."
The Old He nodded and stood up:
"Bring me the cinnabar yellow paper!"
I took out the cinnabar yellow paper, Old He picked up a brush, dipped it in cinnabar and started to draw.
He drew over twenty talismans consecutively. His face was already starting to turn pale and his forehead was covered in beads of sweat.
I said, "Uncle He, you should rest for a while."
It had to be known that the talisman was not drawn casually. It was also a red ink brush and yellow paper. If ordinary people drew a picture of it, then the talisman drawn would also be useless.
Real talismans with magic power needed to be combined with the technique of calming one's breath and drawing. The more powerful the talisman, the more energy and vitality one would consume when drawing it.
Old He is so old, and he drew so many talismans at one go, I was really afraid that he would not be able to hold on.
Old He did not say anything, he only shook his head and continued drawing talismans.
After about half an hour, he put down his brush and dropped into his chair, panting.
"Distribute these talismans to the villagers of Dong Jia Village and have them stick them on the doors. After midnight, the birds will chirp for the rest of the night, and you are not allowed to go out. Otherwise, you will be in danger!"
I nodded my head and kept the talisman.
After leaving the prison, I first called Dou Dabao and had him prepare some things. After that, I returned home, opened the cabinet, and took out a cloth bag from the lowest floor and put it into his bag.
Returning to the car, I hesitated for a moment before calling Guo Sen.
"Captain Guo, can we send that headless corpse back to Dong Jia Village?"
The person on the other end of the line went silent for a moment, then Guo Sen's calm voice came out: "Reason."
"If we don't bring the corpse back to the Dong Jia Village tonight, everyone in the hospital will die."
"Do you think the higher-ups will accept that?"
I thought about it and said,
"As long as the headless corpse is still in the Dong Jia Village, this case can only be solved with the truth."
After hanging up, I told Zhao Qi to go straight to Dong Jia Village.
Just as the car entered the village, they saw 20 to 30 people gathered around the river at the entrance.
Blind Liu and I looked at each other before we got out of the car and walked over.
"Fu An? Why are you back? "
I grew up in the village. As soon as I walked past, someone recognized me.
Most of them were looking at me with a strange, peculiar look. Some of them were even wary of me.
"Fu An is from our village, why can't he come back?"
With an angry shout, Third Grandpa straightened his back and walked over.
"Third Grandpa." I shouted.
Third Grandpa nodded at me and asked me in a loud voice:
"Has everything been investigated? "What happened to the body?"
The villagers were looking at me strangely because the police had dug up a headless corpse in my house. The old man purposely raised his voice to ask so that I could tell the truth of the matter to the villagers in a loud voice.
My nose turned sour and I held onto Third Grandpa's arm before turning around to face the crowd. "Second Uncle Dong, Fourth Uncle Dong, Fourth Aunt Si, Brother Guang, Little Fan …"
"Officer Xu, we are here to investigate a case, let's get down to business first." Zhao Qi walked over.
"Officer Xu?"
Everyone looked at me quizzically.
Zhao Qi raised his eyebrows, his hands on his waist, purposely revealing the gun and handcuffs on his waist, and said loudly:
"Everyone, I know that Xu Huo … Comrade Xu Fuan is from our village. He was now a forensic officer in the Police Department of the Municipal Public Security. He was a technical police officer. This time, we are here on official business. Let's have him come back another day to reminisce about old times. "
Xiao Fu, you've graduated?!
"Brother Fu, have you become a police officer?"
"Xiao Fu An, how can a doctor become a police officer?"
… ….
"Fu An!" A rough voice suddenly shouted and a burly man squeezed through the crowd to pull me back, "You've come at the right time. You're a cop now, so I'll call the police directly!"
"Foolish uncle, what's going on?" I asked, stunned.
This man also watched me grow up since I was young, and people in the village called him Old Stupid.
"Take a look, come over quickly and take a look!" Lao Chi pulled me along and roughly pushed the few people behind me away.
When the crowd moved aside to look at the scene along the banks of the river, I was stunned.
There were a hundred dead ducks on the riverbank, each with a bloody belly and some with intestines sticking out, as if something had bitten them out of their bellies.
Looking at the net bags with long bamboo poles in their hands, and then looking at the more than ten dead ducks floating on the river in the distance, I felt a chill in my heart.
The old man held my hand tightly and said with red eyes:
"Your Uncle Dan raised these hundred or so ducks this year, so I sold them during the new year. Next year, I'll pay the tuition fees to your Lil 'Liang and your Lil' Lil 'Lil' Lil. "If he's f * * king dead in one afternoon, how am I supposed to deal with him?"
"Idiot!" Third Grandpa walked over with large strides, threw away his hand that was holding mine, and said with a sullen face:
"Fu An and the others are here for work, don't mess with them."
Hearing Third Grandpa's words, the old fool glanced at me before squatting to the side and wiping his eyes while staring at the river surface. He didn't say anything further.
The blind man walked up to me and whispered,
"Go, go, go into the water. These ducks were bitten to death by the fishes in the river."
If I wasn't exorcist, upon hearing these words, I would definitely have felt that his mind wasn't normal. Only ducks would eat fish. There was no reason for a fish to bite a duck to death.
But looking at the scene in front of me, I knew he was telling the truth.
Once the wind breeds the water and suddenly becomes sinister, some unnatural phenomenon will definitely occur...
A police car and a hospital van were parked at the village entrance.
Guo Sen jumped off the police car and walked over.
"Captain Guo."
"Captain Guo."
Guo Sen took off his police hat, looked at the dead duck on the ground, raised his eyes and said to me in a low voice:
"The corpses have been delivered, but Zhao Qi and I have to follow them throughout. This is already the limit of what I can do."
"Understood."
"Where's the body?"
I forced a smile and said, "I'll also send you to my house and leave you in the courtyard."
I took out my phone, looked at the time, pulled him aside and whispered,
"There's one thing I need you to help me with."
"Speak."
I whispered a few words into his ear, then took out that blade of Yellow Talisman from my bag and stuffed it into his hands.
Guo Sen stared at me, and said in a low voice:
"In the future, if you dare to learn Ma Li's technique again, come with me and push me around, see how I'll take care of you!"
After he finished speaking, he took the Yellow Talisman and walked to the side of the third grandfather …
The villagers dispersed, and Dou Dabao drove over.
When the passenger door opened, the person who got off was actually Pan Ying!
