"The eyes on the paper man are not perfect?"
Bai Duo frowned. There seemed to be some folk taboo in this jingle.
"The reason why the paper man cannot have his eyes lit is because he is afraid that it will be stained with human spirit and attract some dirty things to attach to his body.
I remember that the old man from Changfu seemed to have passed away recently, and his children even held a grand funeral for him. Almost all the skilled papermakers in the city were invited.
Could it be that there was a paper maker who had a grudge against the Chang family, so he specially tampered with the paper figures? "
Goldman Sachs said that the taboo of not painting eyes on paper figures has been spread by word of mouth in Fenyin City, and even he has been exposed to it since he was a child.
I still know some of the details.
It's just that when he later learned martial arts, especially after reaching the Ninggang Realm, he rarely believed in these strange powers and chaos.
Until the Mirror Ghost case happened.
“This matter is not trivial, especially since the murderer has not yet been apprehended and is a threat to all of us lurking in the city.
Regardless of whether a small paper maker can do this, even if it is a false clue, we still have to go and investigate. "
Lin Qianye turned to look at Bai Duo and had high hopes for him: "Boy Bai, since you have taken that innate seed, you should do more practical things for the people.
As the saying goes, with greater ability comes greater responsibility, so I will leave the investigation of the Chang Mansion massacre to you.
Whether it's evil spirits or demonic ways, everything must be investigated to get to the bottom of it. "
Bai Duo remained calm. The Lihuo Sutra was still a fragment at this moment, and he really had to do something to prove himself. From now on, I can just ask Yao Junsu about the complete version of the scripture in a circumstantial way.
Of course, whether Yao Junsu is willing to say it or not is another matter.
"When I accept my order, I will definitely give an explanation to the guilty souls of the Chang Mansion!" Bai Duo raised his fist, turned around and pushed open the courtyard door with an evil look on his face. The troublemaking people were still gathering.
But seeing Bai Duo's fierce expression, no one dared to embarrass him.
Just make way for Bai Duo to walk out.
"A paper maker?" Bai Duo turned over and rode up, his eyes flashing coldly, and his voice was cold: "You old boy can really help me.
Everyone, please listen to me. Within half an hour, I want information on all the paper shops in the city! "
"yes!"
The newly promoted police officers and a large number of government officials who had been waiting for a long time all spoke up and dispersed to every corner of the city.
Bai Duo himself turned around and went to Ju'an Pavilion.
If something weird happens, you have to find a professional to handle it.
"What are you still doing here? Get out of here, get out of here! You guys from the six doors all wear the same pair of pants, and you all said that Sister Xifu can't use her powers.
Don't waste your breath. If you come to bother us again, we, master and disciple, will not care about suppressing the plague.
Let’s see what you do then! "
As soon as Bai Duo walked in, he was scolded by Mu Xiaoli.
He was also a little confused. He had just come out of seclusion, why was he treated like this?
"Did you make a mistake? I didn't even understand what you said." Bai Duo sounded a little unhappy, but he still suppressed his anger and did not explode.
"Xiao Li, don't embarrass little brother Bai. I've heard a little bit about him being in seclusion these days. You go and look at some medicinal materials."
"On what grounds? Don't try to push me away this time."
"That medicinal material is worth a thousand taels of silver."
Mu Xiaoli paused and hurried to the pharmacy, "Damn old man, why didn't you tell me earlier!"
After sending Mu Xiaoli away, Cui Wenzi found a stone table and sat down opposite Bai Duo. Xifu lowered his head and brought the tea and secretly looked at Bai Duo like this.
He had flaming red hair, his eyes turned brown and red as if they were painted by magma, his body became more erect, and every move exuded an extremely violent aura.
This is a unique symptom of Nanmingli fire in the early stage.
Whether one can restrain the fire energy that escapes all the time represents the depth of one's cultivation in the Lihuo Sutra.
It is said that if you practice the Lihuo Sutra to the highest level, you can truly return to your original nature, but once you explode with all your strength, it will be like a suddenly erupting volcano.
Now Bai Duo must deliberately restrain himself. Once he is distracted, the Nan Mingli fire in his body will not be able to help but escape, causing everything around him to burn down.
"Did the paper hit people? I know about this, and I will go with you to have a look when the source is found." Cui Wenzi was also worried after listening to Bai Duo's account.
As the saying goes, when the house leaks, it rains all night. The plague has not been solved yet, and there are more ghosts committing crimes.
If another evil spirit committed a crime at the restricted level or even the ghost-eating level, then things would be quite difficult.
"I heard that the plague in the outer city has been much better than before. This is all thanks to Taoist Cui. I wonder what means you used to turn the situation around in just a few days?"
Bai Duo was also a little curious. It was clear that Cui Wenzi had been confused by the plague before he went into seclusion. If he could solve it, he would have solved it long ago.
Why wait until now.
Could it be that he also had some adventure?
Cui Wenzi shook his head and whispered in Bai Duo's ear: "You can't talk about it, I have my own considerations about this matter, and even Xiaoli and Xifu don't know about it.
Just assume that the medicinal materials worth a thousand taels of silver have worked. "
Bai Duo didn't hesitate to ask after hearing this. He was still very relieved about Cui Wenzi. Since what he did was beneficial to Fenyin City, he wouldn't say anything unless he said it.
Phew——!
A falcon cry suddenly came from the sky above Ju'an Pavilion. This was a messenger raptor specially equipped for Bai Duo with six doors. It landed steadily at Bai Duo's tiger's mouth.
The wings are long and pointed, the tail is long and narrow, there are teeth on the edge of the upper beak, and a pair of sharp claws are very sharp, but they cannot penetrate Bai Duo's skin.
Bai Duo took the letter from it. After scanning it with his tiger eyes, he saw that he twisted his fingers and the letter turned into ash and scattered in the wind.
"We found the paper maker."
"So fast? Six doors are very efficient in doing things, so let me go and have a look with you."
Bai Duo and Cui Wenzi didn't talk nonsense. After getting the news, they immediately rushed to the most suspicious paper shop.
The store door has been sealed, and people from the six doors have surrounded the place, and everyone feels like they are facing a formidable enemy.
"Have you found out the details about the owner of this shop?" Bai Duo stood in front of the paper shop and asked.
"Reporting to your lord, this paper shop is a time-honored brand in the city, and the owner is also a master with a good reputation in the funeral industry.
His subordinates checked for a long time and found that there was really no blood feud between him and the Chang family. "
One of the detectives said truthfully.
"Why do you have to stab people with eye-opening paper if there is no blood feud?" Bai Duo saw that the people next to him were cowering, and there was a seal on the door. Judging from their expressions, it was obvious that they had already entered.
What on earth did they see that made them so scared?
"Trash! What do I need from you?" Bai Duo's temper suddenly rose, and he smashed the door panel with a knife.
Before he could step in, he was blocked by a pair of dangling feet.
Bai Duo looked up and his pupils suddenly shrank.
