Murders occurred in the town for three consecutive days, which made Liu Yijin frown.
After Song Lian and others learned about what happened in the town, they began to worry: "Yijin, so many people died this time, what's going on? Does the county magistrate know about this?"
"The county magistrate is also having a headache about this matter. Now it's not just our town, but this kind of thing has also happened in other places."
Wang Ying's face changed greatly: "This Maitreya Buddhism is so cruel that it even wants to dig out people's hearts?"
Song Lian said hesitantly: "But Maitreya Buddhism has also killed people before, and Li Ping'er has never heard of killing people and then digging out their hearts in all the years they have been in the town."
Liu Yijin also frowned: "This matter is very serious. The county magistrate has already informed the county governor. Now we can only wait for the next step."
"Yijin, aren't you the leader of the Wolf Guard? Then you can mobilize the Wolf Guard to investigate secretly, or directly mobilize troops from the border army."
Liu Yijin smiled bitterly, "It's not that simple. Now we don't even know where the enemy is. Even if we mobilize the army, it will be useless."
"The people from the Wolf Guard have noticed this matter and are currently investigating it secretly."
Everyone's hearts were anxious again.
Wang Ying pondered for a moment: "It seems that this time, Maitreya Buddhism is not just targeting our Qinghe Town. I wonder if this situation will also occur in other counties."
Liu Yijin shook his head: "Not yet, only our Qingshui County."
Just as Liu Yijin was looking sad, Erzhuzi suddenly ran in: "Brother Yijin, Huiji and Huineng are visiting."
Liu Yijin was stunned and hurriedly went out to greet him.
As soon as they met Huiji, he went straight to the point: "Do you know the series of things that happened in Qingshui County recently?"
Liu Yijin nodded: "Things are much more complicated than we thought. We didn't expect that this situation would happen."
"I just have some doubts about why Maitreya Buddhism wants to win people's hearts. Is this cruel method to frighten people's hearts, or is there another hidden agenda?"
Liu Yijin shook his head: "The key is that we have no way to start now, so we don't have a clue at all."
Huiji and Huineng looked at each other and whispered: "Sir, if there is need, we at Miaomiao Temple will help you."
Liu Yijin was relieved: "Two masters, I also think about it this way. After all, it is not enough to rely solely on the power of the town. If Piaomiao Temple can join, I think it will also be a reassurance for the people. "
"Amitabha, sir, you are kind to Miaomiao Temple, so we will naturally help you."
Huiji took out a box from his arms and said, "There are still a few big return pills in it, so I'll give them to you."
Liu Yijing was stunned: "Your temple doesn't have many great rejuvenating pills left. This gift is too expensive."
"My lord, please don't go outside. Your Majesty has given us the best formula for the Great Return Pill, so if you need it in the future, we will send it to you."
Huineng added on the side: "Sir, if you have nothing to do, you can still practice the Marrow Cleansing Sutra. After all, it is a good thing."
Liu Yijin was moved.
"I wonder if you two adults can give me the formula for this Great Return Pill?"
Huiji was stunned: "Sir, the formula for the Great Return Pill was given by Your Majesty. If you want it, I can ask Your Majesty."
Liu Yijin rubbed his hands and said, "That's okay. I think your Majesty will agree to give it to me."
Huiji was stunned: "Why is this?"
"This is a big deal."
After seeing off Huiji and Huineng, Liu Yijin turned around and saw Wang Ying waiting for him not far away. He walked over with a smile: "It's hot outside. If you have anything to do, just ask the maid to come and let me know."
Seeing no one around, Wang Ying allowed Liu Yijin to hold her hand and walk towards the back garden.
"One pound, I always find this thing strange. Maitreya Buddhism's poaching of people's hearts doesn't seem that simple."
"Besides, there is no one who carves Maitreya Buddha on the dead. In the tragedy of the Zhao family's annihilation and the Han family's annihilation, there was no image of Maitreya Buddha on their bodies."
Liu Yijin hesitated and said: "Maybe they want to intimidate us?"
Wang Ying shook her head: "It doesn't look like it. I always feel that there is something hidden. This matter seems to be someone who wants to divert our attention to Maitreya Buddhism."
The maid Du Juan ran over in a panic, without caring about etiquette, and knelt down directly in front of the two of them: "My lord, madam, something serious has happened."
"What's wrong?"
There was a look of horror in Du Juan's eyes: "Several of the servants who went out to buy things were killed."
"What?" Liu Yijin was angry this time: "Where is it? Take me to see it."
In a grocery store on the back street, the things inside were neatly arranged, and a waiter slumped on the ground with a pale face, his eyes dull.
Seeing Liu Yijin and others hurried in, they were so frightened that they started shouting.
Gouzi stepped forward and slapped him awake: "Tiedan, it's me, Gouzi!"
Tiedan was stunned for a moment, then cried loudly: "Ghost, I saw a ghost."
"The ghost just killed several people, and then dug out their hearts, right in the back, right in the back."
Listening to Tiedan's incoherent words, Liu Yijin and others hurriedly walked over.
The backyard is a place for storing vegetables and eating. There are many people in the Zhou family, so they buy a lot of things every time. This store is often visited by people in the Zhou family, so both parties are familiar with it.
Looking at the several corpses lying there, each one had a big bloody hole, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Hui Ji and Huineng frowned: "It doesn't look like it was dug out with a tool, but it looks like it was pulled out directly from the inside using internal force to break the person's chest."
Huineng walked up, carefully checked the shape and traces of the wound, and frowned: "You see, there are two finger prints above the hole of this corpse. This shows that when the other party killed him, he first used his fingers to directly touch him. Judging from the focus and direction of the two finger marks, the opponent is left-handed."
Liu Yijin looked at Tiedan: "What does that person look like?"
"He had his head lowered when he came in. I was busy at the time, so I didn't pay much attention. But when he went to the back, I saw that he was not walking smoothly. There seemed to be something wrong with his left foot."
"Can you see if it's a boy or a girl?"
Tiedan shook his head: "No!"
After Liu Yijin had the body buried, he asked Tiedan some questions, turned around and walked out.
"One pound!"
Wang Ying came over in a hurry: "Something happened in the Han Mansion."
Liu Yijin and others followed Wang Ying to the courtyard of the original Han family. No one had been here since the Han family was exterminated, and no one would hang out here on weekdays.
But the scene in front of them made everyone feel like the hairs on their bodies were exploding.
Because there were several corpses of beggars placed in the room, and the hearts of these people had also been dug out.
Liu Yijin's face was as gloomy as water: "The damn murderer, if I catch him, I will cut him into pieces!"
"Actually, this may not be a good thing." Wang Ying frowned and said in a low voice.
"A good thing?" Liu Yijin said coldly: "Beggars are human beings too."
Wang Ying smiled bitterly and said: "That's not what I meant. The more people the other party kills, the more flaws will be exposed. Besides, through expert screening, we can roughly infer the time of death of the deceased. Of course, there are other information."
"Master?" Liu Yijin looked at Huiji and Huineng: "Two masters?"
Huiji smiled bitterly and said: "We are not very proficient in this area. Now we can only ask the magistrate for help."
Liu Yijin returned to his house with a frown on his face.
After receiving the news, Lan Yu'er came over, looked at Liu Yijin's gloomy face, and said calmly: "Take me to have a look."
"You understand this?"
Lan Yuer nodded: "Don't forget, I am the Medical Saint."
Liu Yijin slapped his forehead: "Yeah, why didn't I think of it? If the medical saint can't see anything, no matter how good the doctor is, it will be of no use!"
Liu Yijin got up and pulled Lan Yuer out.
As soon as they arrived at the yamen gate, they saw Liu Xin, the magistrate of Liu County, coming in a hurry.
"One pound, I'm looking for you!"
Liu Xin stepped forward and grabbed Liu Yijin's hand: "What should we do? There have been murders and heart-breaking incidents in the entire four towns of the county. I am so worried now that I have no clue."
"Does the Sheriff know about this?"
"The county guard is also very worried now. He has no clue at all. Wolf guards from the entire county have been sent out, but no clues have been found."
Liu Xin looked at Lan Yu'er who was standing next to Liu Yijin and said, "What are you doing?"
"I'll bring Lan Yu'er over to take a look. She's a Uighur medical saint. She might be able to find some clues."
"Is this okay?" Liu Xin had deep doubts in her eyes.
"We can only treat a dead horse as a living horse. If we can find clues, we can solve the case quickly. Otherwise, we don't know how many people will die."
The three of them walked in, and the man in charge of examining the body hurriedly came out.
"How's it going?"
Zuo Zuo is an old man who has been working in this industry for most of his life, but he still has a headache when faced with a room full of corpses: "I can only infer the approximate time, but other than these, I know nothing else."
Lan Yu'er walked up to the corpses, inspected them carefully, and frowned slightly: "The expressions on these people's faces are ferocious, and there is fear in their eyes. It can be seen that the attacks they suffered were sudden."
Wu Zuo nodded: "This girl is right, these people have a look of fear in their eyes."
Lan Yuer carefully looked through some corpses, pondered for a moment, then carefully checked the others, and frowned and said, "Why are these things all about men?"
Are they all men?
Liu Yijin and Liu Xin didn't expect that the deceased were all men, so they were slightly stunned: "What's so important about this?"
Lan Yuer said: "And the identities of these deceased are all traffickers, beggars, traders, farmers, and only three of the long-term workers of Zhou Mansion died, right?"
"Yes." Liu Yijin seemed to have found something, but he didn't understand it for a while.
Lan Yuer walked up to the three long-term workers, looked at each other's eyes, and frowned slightly: "There was no fear in the eyes of these three people, and judging from their facial expressions, these three people were smiling before they died. Yes, and the muscles on the body are also loose."
Liu Xin on the side blinked: "Why is this?"
The old man hurriedly stepped forward, checked each one, and couldn't help but sigh: "This girl observes very carefully, it is true."
Lan Yu'er opened the wounds on each person's heart and looked at them, and finally carefully checked every detail on each person's clothes.
Finally, he paused for a moment at the neck of a long-term worker in the Zhou Mansion, and then stretched out his hand.
"Miss Lan, what are you doing?"
Under everyone's shocked gazes, Lan Yu'er picked up a slender strand of hair from a long-term worker's underwear collar: "Are there women when carrying corpses?"
"No, it was all done by people from the Yamenmen."
"Then this hair should belong to the murderer."
Liu Xin on the side shook her head: "Maybe it belongs to his wife?"
Lan Yuer shook her head: "There is a faint floral fragrance in this hair, which is not something that ordinary women can use."
Liu Yijin stepped forward suspiciously and smelled it gently. There was indeed a faint aroma on it.
"You are insensitive to details." Lan Yu'er turned to look at Liu Yijin: "Can you draw for me the time and place where all the victims were killed?"
Liu Yijin was slightly stunned: "I will draw it for you now."
