The incarnation of the water god!
Wang Yanpin read the profound meaning of his master's words and whispered to himself: "The ancient water god, the innate god, Gonggong! He once controlled the law of water and was the deputy of Emperor Zhenwu. In the ancient times, he competed with Zhu Rong for the emperor of heaven and lost. Such gods are ancient and mysterious, and at least they are perfect gods. Master knows the secrets of heaven and must have a sense of proportion. Therefore, Master ordered me to kill the incarnation of Gong Gong, which should be something I can do. "
He stood up slowly, lifted the heavy curtains, and what came into view was an architectural design that was similar to Western European style.
The lights flickered, and there was a strong smell of burning kerosene.
Hanging on the chair directly in front of him was a dark blue nylon uniform, which was a standard police uniform.
At this time, I was wearing a light-colored hospital gown.
"Are you awake? How do you feel now? Can you move around? This is warm milk, drink it while it's hot. The doctor said that you are in a coma due to stimulation, and hot milk has a soothing effect."
At this time, the wooden door was pushed open.
The black-haired young man slowly walked in with a cup of hot milk, his face was concerned and his words were calm.
"grateful."
Wang Yan took the milk with both hands and took a slight sip.
A warm current goes straight into the heart, sweet and rich, nourishing the Dantian.
There was a hint of reminiscence in his eyes, and he mocked himself with a bit of joking: "My body has become an immortal and the world has become a thing of the past. This seems to be the first time I have eaten or eaten in the thirteen years since I set foot in the world. Right? I really miss it."
Wang Yan slowly raised his hand, and there seemed to be ripples between his eyes.
The power of the soul, with a radius of three thousand miles, is all concentrated between the pupils.
He raised his brows slightly and whispered to himself: "There is no lingering breath of heaven and earth, no stagnation of Dharma principles, and no gathering of yin and yang and the five elements. Within three thousand miles, all people are ordinary people, and there are no traces of cultivation. It seems like this The ordinary world is actually the incarnation of the water god Gonggong, so there must be something extraordinary about it.”
Out of caution, Wang Yan's test was quite cautious and cautious.
He spoke softly, and there was a bit of magic in his words, reaching into his heart: "What place is here?"
"This is the hospital in Far East City and the Central Hospital of New England. I am a trainee police officer in New England and will soon be a full-time official." The black-haired young man's eyes were empty and dim, and his words were mechanical and cold.
modern society?
Wang Yan raised his eyes slightly, sipped the fragrant milk, and said softly: "New England, is it a city or a country? Is it part of the European continent? What year is it now? Has the second industrial revolution progressed? ?Is there an extraordinary system in New England today? What level has the nation’s science and technology reached today? Answer each of my questions in turn and tell me everything you know!"
"New England, formerly known as the British Empire. Three hundred years ago, natural disasters struck and the land was silenced. Everything in the past was completely erased, and all memories of the past disappeared. The history of this land is still in darkness and ignorance. , only a small number of texts and classics have been handed down to the world, and the past civilization has been completely covered. Today's New England is a country built on a destroyed land. It is not only an extremely large ancient city, but also a new dynasty that carries the name of England. "The black-haired young man spoke slowly, with a hint of sadness in his words, "Three hundred years ago, a flood fell from the sky, washing it with blood, and destroying the world in seven days! The blood-colored flood buried the earth, devoured civilization, and changed the mountains and seas. , the continent fell apart! Nowadays, scholars need to work hard to study whether the European continent exists."
Flood destroys the world?
This is in line with the European myths and legends in my memory.
But, why did He do this?
At first, I thought that He was adhering to the idea of "destroying the world and then saving it" to harvest faith, practice the way of incense, and transform into the incarnation of incense and fire.
It seems that this is not the way to go.
Wang Yan held his chin, with a little more thought between his brows, and said slowly: "In today's city, are there any sacrifices to gods and worship of faith?"
"No. Today's New England is a new city and a new country. It was named here to commemorate the England of the past! Today's New England has no gods to sacrifice and no legends of demons. In mythology, it is Nothing! After this country integrated with the civilization of the Far East, the Secret Order, the Church of Gods, and even the belief in demons from the Far East continent were introduced." There seemed to be a bit more anger in the words of the black-haired young man.
Demonic belief?
Wang Yan's eyes flickered, and he crossed his hands in front of him, thinking: "This should be the extraordinary system of this world, right?"
The black-haired young man continued: "Today, it is the 300th year of New England. The second industrial revolution was already underway before the catastrophe. As for the extraordinary system, it exists in the city and is limited to the wanted followers of the devil and the mysterious ones. Order. As for the level of science and technology, because of the fragmentation of civilization and the advent of disasters, today's civilization is somewhere between the 1960s before the disaster. We have developed electric lights, but because of insufficient energy levels, kerosene is still used in many places Lights. The transformation of the internal combustion engine was completed, cars began to be used, and there were also urban trams, but horse-drawn carriages were still a large-scale transportation device."
Wang Yan nodded slightly and snapped his fingers.
"Crack-"
The black-haired young man shook his head as if he had just woken up from a dream, and said politely: "Sir, please come with me to the police station. Because your identity information is really vague, for safety reasons, we need Information certified.”
Wang Yan smiled lightly and said, "I don't have any objections."
"Thank you for your trust. Your clothes are in the wardrobe. I have sent someone to iron them. Now, I will wait for you outside the door. By the way, my name is Zhang Liang. I am of Eastern descent. My ancestors came to England to do business. People." The black-haired young man casually put on the nylon police uniform, put on an armband with a number and a sword-shaped symbol engraved on it, picked up the baton, and walked out of the room.
After Wang Yan confirmed that the clothes were correct and contained no restrictions or curses, he changed his clothes.
He walked down the stairs, and what he saw was a city that was both retro and somewhat modern.
The morning fog was thin on the central streets, and people were coming and going.
On both sides of the road, there are four-wheeled or two-wheeled carriages passing by, as well as human-pulled rickshaws.
Looking far ahead, you can see the old bicycle with a huge frame and the tram staying in the center.
The rows of wires are neatly displayed.
"Let's go to the police station."
Zhang Liang saw the trolley bus approaching slowly and greeted Wang Yan. When he was about to straighten his clothes, he saw a burly man getting off the trolley car.
"Good morning, Sir Li." Zhang Liang stood firm subconsciously and immediately saluted.
The man known as "Sir Li" glanced at Zhang Liang and said slowly: "Just in time, you don't have to go back to the police station. An inhumane murder occurred nearby, and it may involve the secret cult. Your kid is about to become a regular member, just in time. Come with me today to see something, so that if you encounter him in the future, you will be too scared to hold the gun. Others will come later. "
"But." Zhang Liang's words were somewhat difficult, and he subconsciously looked at Wang Yan.
The man raised his eyes slightly, his eyes sharp and lively: "Who is this one?"
"Last night, we found a foreigner in the ruins of the ancient city. He had no identification and no documents for entering the city. Maybe he lost it. I was about to take him to the police station to verify his identity." Zhang Liang He spoke quickly.
Foreigner?
The man narrowed his eyes slightly and was thinking about how to act. Wang Yan smiled lightly and said: "Sir Li, maybe I can participate in your action. I am a senior surgeon and I have made some achievements in dissecting cadavers." . It is no exaggeration to say that I am one of the best doctors. If it is a murder case, I can definitely help you."
"In that case, then you can come with us." The man nodded and turned around.
Zhang Liang seemed a little incredible.
This "Sir Li" is the most impartial and selfless, resolute and rigid in doing things, and refuses to be casual and accommodating.
Why are you so talkative today?
There was a flash of light in Wang Yan's eyes, and he said slowly and leisurely: "Your boss is very easy to talk to."
Zhang Liang shook his head and said with lingering fear: "Remember, this is only for today and will not happen next time. Perhaps your status as a surgeon made him restrain his anger. Otherwise, according to his violent temper in the past, he would have to get angry."
Wang Yan chuckled and said meaningfully: "Really? When we first met, I thought he had a good personality. After all!"
After a slight pause in his words, he said with a faint smile as if he was pointing: "The green ring in his hand is an emerald thing, and it is engraved with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva! I still thought that he was a latent practitioner of Buddhism. "
"Is that a thumb ring? It was given to Sir Li by Mr. Zhou. It is said to be able to ward off evil spirits, prevent contamination by evil spirits, and resist the invasion of external demons. Mr. Zhou is a respected senior in our police station. Although he has resigned now, his words are still there. , we are still willing to listen." Zhang Liang said seriously.
Exorcise evil spirits, avoid taboos, and resist the invasion of external demons.
Wang Yan nodded slightly, thoughtfully.
Ten minutes later, the three arrived at the crime scene.
This is a country house.
Even from a great distance, you can still smell the strong smell of blood, which is extremely pungent.
Zhang Liang's face was very pale and he tried not to vomit.
As the police chief, Sir Li was directing the evacuation of the crowd and guarding the scene. At the same time, he carefully put on white gloves and began to inspect the body and survey the scene.
There was blood everywhere and the stench was extremely foul.
"The deceased was a young man, about twenty-five years old. He was first pierced through the heart with a sharp knife, and then dismembered to death. The time of death should have been six hours ago, probably around 12 o'clock this morning."
The indifferent words sounded, and Sir Li raised his head slightly.
The person who spoke was the guy who claimed to be a surgeon.
"Kill with one strike. There are no unnecessary traces at the scene. The method is extremely ruthless and clean. Either he is a habitual criminal or there is a possibility of supernatural crime." Wang Yan looked around and spoke softly.
"Why do you see it?" Sir Li asked slowly.
"Although it is a country villa, the layout is quite elegant and the precautions are also good. Outside the fence, there is a dense barbed wire fence, and a three-meter-high power grid is set up. There is only a main door in the center, and there is no sign of damage. And Just now, I checked the surveillance of the villa, and apart from the victim, no one else entered the villa until our arrival." Wang Yan said with interest.
Sir Li's brows were furrowed and he seemed quite silent.
Soon, professional forensic doctors arrived at the scene and investigated and summarized the scene.
"Replying to Sir Li, the deceased was indeed pierced through the heart with a sharp knife and then dismembered to death. The time of death was indeed six hours ago, around twelve o'clock this morning."
After listening to the forensic doctor's report, Sir Li lit his pipe, his eyes fell on Wang Yan, and he said seriously: "Sir, what else did you see? Please tell me! This is very important!!"
Wang Yan said softly: "After the deceased was pierced through the heart, he did not die on the spot, but was still alive! Until he was dismembered!"
At this moment, both Li Sir and Zhang Liang felt cold all over their bodies.
How is it possible for someone to survive after being stabbed through the heart?
Could it be that supernatural forces are really involved?
While Wang Yan was thinking about it, he saw Li Sir helplessly taking off his white gloves.
"As expected, it's another case like this."
Li Sir sighed and said slowly: "In the past ten years, many similar cases have occurred. The conclusion drawn by forensic investigations is that the deceased suffered fatal injuries, but there was no death, including but not limited to stabbings." Pierce the heart, suffocate, cut off arteries, etc. People who should have died did not die, and needed to endure extreme torture, and then died in pain. There are countless cases like this!"
"Just last October, Mr. Holmes from the East Third District mentioned such a case. It was also a case of death that was extremely miserable. It was also the case that the person survived after sustaining fatal injuries, and then was tortured to death! The only difference is that , the identity of the deceased in that case was extremely special. He was a core member of the secret cult and a former believer of the devil! He also died silently in his home, and was only found ten days later. Discovered. Perhaps, I have reason to believe that this is another case involving supernatural forces and even followers of the devil."
He slowly blew out a smoke ring and said helplessly: "Let's close the team. Our Criminal Investigation Division does not need to take over such cases. All cases involving the supernatural will be handled by the Special Operations Division of the New England General Administration, which is directly under the chief committee."
"There's one more thing I need to remind you of."
Li Sir's expression became extremely solemn and solemn, and he said sternly: "Within twenty-four hours, do not touch water, including drinks, perfume, and even the juice in fruits! In the future, if you encounter such a weird thing again After the case, you can’t touch the water!”
"Remember?"
Can't touch water?
If I remember correctly, Gonggong is in charge of the authority of water, right?
Could it be said that these cases are related to Him?
Wang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and had more thoughts in his mind. (End of chapter)
