When Captain Qiao was going up the mountain, he happened to bump into Wang Qiang and Qian Sheng. He didn't care to say anything more, just said hello and hurried away.
When he climbed to the entrance of the Gale Cave, he saw Qin Renjie and Bai Lu sitting at the entrance of the cave. The expressions on everyone's faces looked abnormal.
Especially Qin Renjie, sitting on a big rock with messy hair, dull eyes, and muttering to himself.
His assistant put his coat on him and stood silently behind him.
Bai Lu stood at the intersection with Wanya in her arms.
"What's going on at the scene? Where is Consultant Lin?"
"The lid of the coffin was indeed opened, and it was opened from the inside. Footprints were found inside. Brother Lin said he chased in to take a look."
Upon hearing this, Captain Qiao took out his pistol from his bag without saying a word, turned on the safety, and rushed in.
Lin Yi walked out from inside.
"Consultant Lin, are you okay?"
"It's okay. What can happen to me? It's just that the eldest son of the Qin family walks a little fast."
As he spoke, he turned on his phone and showed everyone the photos taken at the scene.
"Resurrection from the dead? Kick open the coffin board yourself, then dig a hole and get in?"
Team Qiao boasted that he had been handling cases in Qianzhou for many years and was experienced and well-informed. Hearing this result, he felt a little numb.
Lin Yi handed over a cigarette. Captain Qiao took it and held it between his fingertips without lighting it. He still didn't recover for a long time.
"I know you may not be able to accept this result for a while, but I still want to make it clear that the opponent we encountered is a bit strong. Not only is he good at layout, calculation, and good at bewitching, but he can also 'drive away corpses'. '."
"The art of exorcising corpses? The art of exorcising corpses in Western Hunan?"
Bai Lu reacted immediately.
"Sister Bai, what is the art of exorcising corpses? It sounds so scary."
"Lulu, tell them."
With that said, Lin Yi pressed the lighter and lit the cigarettes for himself and Captain Qiao. Over there, Qin Renjie said something unprecedented:
"Give me one too!"
Lin Yi handed one over, and Qin Renjie caught it, lit it, and took a puff, which made him cough.
Wealthy men like them basically smoke handmade cigars flown from South America. They burn them and turn them around in their mouths to taste them. For them, cigarettes that need to be inhaled into their lungs are... A bit strong.
"I'm fine, Miss Bai, please speak."
Bai Lu combined the information she had with the contents of the "Theogony" to give everyone some explanations.
“Removing corpses is actually part of the ancient shaman culture in our southwest region, also known as moving spirits, which originated in ancient times.
Chi You, the ancestor of the Southern Miao people, had a great battle with Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang in the Yellow River area, leaving corpses scattered across the fields.
When retreating, Chi You couldn't bear to leave the soldiers who died in the battle, so he asked Military Commander Wu Zhu-Apu to cast a spell to let these soldiers who died in the battle go with him.
So the two exchanged costumes, and Military Secretary Apu used the "Five Great Fog" spell to trap the pursuers of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang in the fog, and then asked Chi You to lead the way with the talisman.
After military commander Apu chanted a spell to wake up the Jiuli soldiers who died in the battle, he took the talisman from Chi You's hand and led them back to the southwest with the defeated Jiuli army.
Apu Army Chief later became the founder of the 'cadaver exorcism' sect. They will use three methods: spells, talismans, and tools to exorcise corpses. The purpose is the same as their ancestors, which is to let the Southern Miao people who died in a foreign land return to their roots. "
Listening to Bai Lu's narration, the people around him felt as if they were listening to a book from heaven.
They may have only seen these scenes in TV movies. Perhaps they were still wondering at that time why these movie makers had such great imaginations, but they didn't expect that this was actually true.
"Are all Uncle Nine's movies real?"
Qin Renjie asked.
"Uncle Nine's movie is fake, but what we are experiencing now is real. Qin Renqian should have been 'awakened' by the 'Corpse Curse'. The cave is semi-enclosed, and I smelled it when I walked in. The vision should be the smell of 'corpse-inducing incense'."
"Consultant Lin, what's going on with that black cat?"
"In order to deceive others, confuse the public, and mislead us in other directions. Wait until Lao San and Lao Wang come back. We will search in this cave. We must find Qin Renqian's body."
Wang Qiang and Qian Sheng hurriedly picked up the equipment from the construction site and returned to Mazhao Ridge.
This rapid march was very difficult for them. When they returned to the wind tunnel, they could not even utter a single word and could only breathe.
When Wukong saw Lin Yi, he jumped on his shoulder.
Wan Ya saw the cute monkey and was about to reach out to tease him, but Wukong suddenly bared his teeth and was so frightened that he quickly pulled his hand back.
"Be careful, he's a bit shy. It'll be fine as soon as you guys get familiar with it. Let's go in after Lao Wang and the others take a breath. Mr. Qin, it might be very dangerous here, how about you guys?"
When Qin Renjie heard this, he immediately stood up.
"Mr. Lin, let me go in with you, and Henry will follow. I won't cause you any trouble."
Lin Yi looked Qin Renqian's assistant up and down.
I didn't pay much attention to him before, but now that I've taken a closer look, it seems that he is indeed a practitioner.
"Practice?"
"The Flying Tigers retire."
Henry said calmly.
"Flying Tigers, are we still together?"
Team Qiao said unexpectedly.
Lin Yi and the others were stunned. As the saying goes, a person should not be judged by his appearance. He looked gentle and weak. He also wore black-rimmed glasses. His appearance was also the kind of popular face. You can’t remember the features even after looking at it several times. That kind of thing.
Looking back now, the more this kind of person is, the more suitable he is to perform some special tasks.
Moreover, it is impossible for the Qin family to hand over Qin Renjie's only surviving sapling to Lin Yi and the others with confidence and boldness. They must be equipped with a trustworthy bodyguard.
"Then, little sister, you."
"I won't leave. I don't dare to go back. I'm afraid. I want to follow you."
Bai Lu reached out and held her beside her.
"give it to me!"
Just think about it, sending a little girl back in the middle of nowhere just in case something unexpected happens along the way.
"Lao Wang, Lao San, how are you doing?"
"Come on, Brother Qiang, don't lie down anymore. Money is hard to make and shit is hard to eat. This is the last time you kowtow."
Qian Sheng stood up and reached out to pull Wang Qiang up.
"Captain Qiao, please say hello to the brothers at the local police station. Unless there are special circumstances, tell them not to come to the Gale Tunnel to watch the excitement."
Team Joe nodded.
"I have arranged all these, and have asked the village cadres and town leaders to talk to the villagers. The news will not be leaked for the time being, but I can't guarantee how long this matter can be hidden.
We still have to find Qin Renqian's body as soon as possible, so as to dispel the concerns of these villagers as soon as possible. "
"right!"
Lin Yi came to the entrance of Gale Cave, lit three incense sticks, murmured something in his mouth, then raised the incense above his head, bowed three times, and respectfully inserted it into the stone mortar at the entrance of the cave.
