Wu Zhiqi watched the unconscious prisoner being dragged away. The fat Taoist priest spoke again, but he said it to himself, "You claim to be a member of the evil way, but have you studied the art of living corpses? Why don't you introduce it? Second, if there is any merit, just try it on you."
Wu Zhiqi was trembling all over and was speechless. The fat Taoist priest seemed to be having a great time talking, "This Australian art of living corpses was passed down by the local natives. It uses secret medicine to refine the soul and make the soul gradually disperse. At first, I didn't notice it, but I seemed to be moving as usual, and then I became thinner day by day. He does not think, and likes to eat raw food. After ten and a half days, he will become confused, irritable and irritable, and ordinary people can no longer eat food. Only living food can slightly alleviate hunger and thirst. After a few days, his appearance will be withered and his body will become haggard. Gradually decaying, corpse insects occasionally come close to the body. At this time, half of the soul is separated from the body, and there is no sense of consciousness. All questions must be answered. Hey, what is the secret? Now I will ask you all. If you wait for a few more days, the living corpse will It will be like what I saw just now, with only the instinct to pursue blood and food, and suffer the torment forever."
The fat man finished speaking in one breath, looked at the pale-faced people, and continued, "It's a pity that although this method is exquisite, it takes too long and has no immediate effect. Later, it was improved by Taoist Parasol Taoist, using secret techniques to steam the blood of living corpses and inject it into living people." In the body, it only takes three or four hours for the living corpse to be completed. I estimate that after another hour or three, the person who wants to atone for his sins will know everything. If he doesn't have time to finish, the next person... " He stretched out his finger and slid it in the air, pointing at the person next to Wu Zhiqi, "It's you!"
Wu Zhiqi looked sideways, and saw that the man was paralyzed, his head drooped, his eyes were unfocused, and he seemed to have suffered a mental breakdown, muttering words such as mercy and confession.
At this moment, the door opened again, and three weirdos held a stick with a ring on the top, put it on a person's neck and hands, and pushed the person in. That person was vaguely the prisoner who was dragged out just now. After only being separated for a short time, this person's eye sockets were sunken and his complexion was ashen. He was somewhat similar to the living corpse in the shadow just now.
Cui Hantang stepped forward, played with the prisoner's face with his big-gloved hands, and exclaimed: "The craftsmanship is not bad!" At the same time, he waved, and the three weirdos pushed the prisoner toward the tied prisoners. At the same time, he said, "There is another wonderful thing about this living corpse. It contains corpse poison. If they catch a handful of them and take a bite, they will inevitably become like this. It's just that they have such a good appetite that they will lose their limbs. Of course. , it makes no difference to you." As they spoke, the three weirdos forced the prisoner's head to rub against the other prisoners. The prisoners who were touched tried their best to avoid it, but unfortunately they couldn't escape even though they were tied up.
"This person has not been refined for a long time and has not lost his mind. When he gets mad, he will open his mouth and take a bite!" Cui Hantang made an exaggerated gesture. Seeing that the fire was almost done, Wu Zhiqi's lips trembled, as if he wanted to say something, and the other prisoners' begging for mercy had become subconscious nicknames.
He found a chair and sat down, "The time has not yet come, please wait patiently." After a while, he looked impatient again, "Idle time is idle, we might as well have some fun. I'm going to ask about this job now. Corpse, you can say whatever you want. If it can speak faster than this living corpse, the Taoist Master will reward it with something when he is happy. If it is not as effective as this living corpse... Cui Hantang paused, "Then reward it with a piece of meat!" "
"He did it all." Cui Hantang said proudly, "At first, the demon refused to say anything, but later I found out that he thought he had been sucked out of both souls. The fat man had to show off his boundless power, and the method used it to defeat him. It took at least a dozen of Fatty's efforts to retract Fatty's soul, and then he fell to the ground and convinced of Fatty's magic power! If you ask him again, it's like pouring beans through a bamboo tube - it's all clear. Humph, what I asked for is nothing more than exemption. The soul, even if it is cut into pieces by a thousand cuts, is still the original intention. This deal is really worth it!"
"Stop promoting your feudal superstitions." Wu Mu disagreed, "It's better to ask Bureau Mu to discuss the case first."
Although Cui Hantang destroyed Wu Zhiqi's mental defense, the case was complicated and there were many clues. The specific interrogation work was personally presided over by Mu Min, who had experience in criminal investigation.
"The case is more complicated than we imagined, but in general it is similar to what we previously judged. It was an anti-Senate group. The leader of this group is Shi Weng who has appeared in many political cases. '." Mu Min, who was in charge of the specific reconnaissance work, said, "Wu Zhiqi said that he didn't know who Shi Weng was. He only knew that he was a big boss in the capital, a Taoist named Mu Shi Taoist, who was responsible for liaising with and arranging their work. By the way, he By the way, this Wu Zhiqi is very afraid of Taoist Mu Shi, saying that he knows the art of soul extraction, and he accidentally had one and two of his souls stolen by him, so he has no choice but to be controlled by him and come to Guangzhou to do this desperate business."
"What a nonsense..." Lin Baiguang commented involuntarily, "How does he know he has lost his soul?"
"There is also Taoism in this -" Cui Hantang was about to explain, but Wu Mu interrupted him, "You can talk about this science popularization when we have tea. Let's talk about the case first."
"The even rarer plot is yet to come..." Mu Min said, "Although Wu Zhiqi's soul was taken away, Taoist Mu Shi promised to return his soul and give him another 30,000 taels of silver as reward after the deed was completed - this was something that in the Ming Dynasty But it was a huge reward - and a deposit of 10,000 taels of silver was made on the spot. Only then did Wu Zhiqi come to Guangzhou. According to his explanation, there were three purposes for this trip.
"The first one is to destroy the Feng Shui of Guangzhou and curse the Senate. It will ruin the luck of the Senate. They massacred people in the Maojia Inn and made elixirs. They were making the 'town objects' they were doing and then putting them into the Liumai Canal. Kill the vitality of Guangzhou and turn it into a desperate situation." Mu Min said, "According to his confession, more than half of the town objects have been released, and it was only because the Maojia Inn was cracked that it was not completed."
The faces of the elders present showed expressions of disbelief. Lin Baiguang asked: "So he has the book of Qu Pu?"
"It's not in his hands," Mu Min said. "The Qupu was brought to him by Gao Tianshi. He drew a 'map of the town' according to the shape of the Qupu and then handed it back to Gao Tianshi.
"The second one is to change the fate of Shi Weng. It seems that this Shi Weng is not satisfied or worried about his career." Mu Min continued, "However, because the Maojia Inn was uncovered, this so-called change of fate The transshipment formation could not be completed. Wu Zhiqi confessed that Taoist Mu Shi was very anxious about this matter. After the fall of Maojia Inn, he hid in the cemetery and still pressed for the matter, and strictly ordered Gao Tianshi to find someone for him, but Gao Tianshi The Tianshi could not obtain suitable human sacrifices, so the formation was never completed."
"Could this be related to Mingnu's case? Choose your birth date or your zodiac sign?" Wu Mu said.
"It's very possible, but we don't know much about the witchcraft involved. We still have to wait for Daoist Cui's further interrogation."
"It's all on the fat man!" Cui Hantang slapped his chest fiercely.
"The third one is to use human organs to refine a batch of 'secret medicine' by taking advantage of the opportunity of refining artifacts and performing sacrificial spells to kill people in Guangzhou. The situation here is complicated. It is not only refined for Shi Weng, because 'Raw materials are abundant', Wu Zhiqi himself and the group of 'picking and cutting' guys also benefited from it and refined all kinds of messy 'big medicine'."
"Fuck!" Wu Mu couldn't help but make a sound of disgust. Several people showed expressions of hatred.
"Where are those medicinal silvers?" Wu Mu asked.
"Wu Zhiqi said that he started refining it after he hid in the cemetery - Taoist Mu Shi only asked him to refining the medicine silver, but he didn't tell him what to do with it."
"Does the Zhu Tiyin seized from Widow Wang's house belong to him?"
"No," Mu Min replied, "Wu Zhiqi doesn't know Widow Wang at all, nor does he know where she lives."
This was beyond everyone's expectations. Based on his background and the seized "Medicine Silver", it was a certainty that Zhu Tiyin was brought by Wu Zhiqi, but unexpectedly it turned out not to be the case at all!
"So, the other of the two men who once visited Widow Wang's house was not Wu Zhiqi." Wu Mu said.
"Yes, Wang Dayiao cannot have Zhu Tiyin. The person who hid Zhu Tiyin in Widow Wang's house should also be the murderer of her and Wang Dayiao."
"Arrest Gao Tianshi immediately - he is very involved in this case and is probably a key figure who works as a liaison between the two!"
"It's too late," Mu Min said, "Wu Zhiqi confessed that just last night, he had followed Taoist Mu Shi's instructions and bit Gao Tianshi with the silver ring snake in the snake staff - if nothing else, this person He should be dead. I have sent someone to the Gao family to inquire about the situation."
"He also killed Wang Dong?"
"Yes, he killed both Wang Dong and Gao Tianshi." Mu Min said, "According to him, this was all according to Taoist Mu Shi's instructions - Taoist asked him to 'sweep clean the footprints'."
"This Taoist Master Mu Shi is really not simple."
"Based on the situation, Taoist Mu Shi should be Shi Weng's agent in Guangzhou." Mu Min said, "We know that there are some wealthy gentry in Guangzhou who may also be involved in the conspiracy, but it is likely that each of them only knows a small part. The person in charge is this Taoist Mu Shi! We are now conducting a surprise interrogation about Taoist Mu Shi."
"As for the situation of Taoist Mu Shi, there is no delay in shutting down the Guandi Temple people. Even if we are not yet able to contain and identify all the beggars, we should kill their upper-level backbone first. I am afraid there are many insiders involved in the conspiracy. If you don't hurry up, If we close the net, the enemy will probably kill them one by one!" Wu Mu said.
"I completely agree with Director Wu's view. The Guandi Temple people are not only deeply involved in this case, but also involved in a wide range of areas."
"This requires Liu Xiang's approval, but he will definitely understand the urgency of the matter." Lin Baiguang said, "I will go to the city government to make arrangements right now!"
