When Zhang Baoshan led people over, the four people were still sitting in the car, swaying as if the car was moving.
The outside of the yard was crowded with alarmed villagers, laughing and pointing.
Tao Danian wore a coat and led several joint defense team members to maintain order and prevent the villagers from entering the yard.
"what's the situation?"
Zhang Baoshan was both funny and a little surprised.
I lit up the car with my cigarette and said, "The man driving the car is called Lu Desheng, the fifth son of Peng Gulu's family. The elixir Wang Laogun made was bought by his family. There was another person in the house who was also one of theirs. He was trapped in the car. These were the ones who shot and killed them.”
When Zhang Baoshan heard that there were shots fired and dead people, his face became a little ugly. He hurriedly asked the police who were following him to enter the house to check the situation. However, he took me aside and asked in a low voice: "Did you do anything?"
"No. This is Wang Laoguan's alchemy site. There is erysipelas, which conflicts with raw pills. They must have eaten raw pills. They will be confused when they enter the yard. I don't need to do anything."
"It's good that we didn't do anything." Zhang Baoshan breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's go back together later. Such a big thing happened, so we have to record a confession."
I said: "They should know the true identity of this old stickman Wang."
Although Wang Laoguan was arrested, he refused to cooperate and did not answer any questions.
Although Zhang Baoshan and the others resorted to tricks, it was nothing to Wang Laoguan who could shed his top shell.
Zhang Baoshan raised his eyebrows, "Really?"
"You can review it when you go back. By the way, they probably can't finish the raw elixir they bought. You can just ask where the rest is stored."
Zhang Baoshan was very excited. Although he was assigned to the anti-trafficking task force, he was still working on the Dahong Village Corpse Cauldron case. Only because there was no progress, he put it on hold for the time being and focused his attention on Qian, which was progressing faster. Face Hu case here.
If the Corpse Cauldron case could be brought to an end, it would reduce the huge pressure on both him and the district bureau.
After all, this case was registered by the ministry. Not to mention their district bureau, even the provincial department was under great pressure.
I followed Zhang Baoshan back to record the confession. Before the recording was finished, Lu Desheng started speaking.
He confessed three things.
The first one is the true identity of the person who took on Wang Laoguang’s shell.
This man's real name is Shao Kunshan, who was originally a Taoist priest from Penggu Qingxu Temple. Eight years ago, he returned to secular life and became the Yin-Yang Master. He was invited by the Lu family to worship him. He used sorcery many times to help the Lu family get rid of their opponents. The Lu family was able to occupy all the sand quarries and quarries in Penggu and dominate the local earthwork market, which was indispensable to Shao Kunshan.
Wang Laoguan was originally a local eldest brother in Penggu. After losing to the Lu family, he escaped from Penggu and took refuge in Jincheng.
Following the orders of the Lu family, Shao Kunshan chased to Jincheng to eradicate the roots, skinned Wang Laogun and replaced his identity. In order to ensure the vitality of the top-shell human skin, the real Wang Laogun was sent away in a jar. Store it in Qingxu Temple.
The second is the issue of refining the elixir of life.
The Lu family has an inherited congenital heart disease. It costs a lot to treat this disease, and there is no guarantee of 100% cure. Later, the head of the Lu family, Lu Lianpao, took a treasure passed down from his ancestors and asked Qingxu Guan for help. Not long after, Shao Kunshan came to the door and mentioned that he could help the Lu family cure this problem by making a pill of life, and he could also help the Lu family dominate Penggu. The condition was that the Lu family would give one-third of their annual income.
Shao Kunshan has practiced elixir twice in Penggu. Each elixir can be taken for three years, and the effect is excellent, but if he wants to avoid recurrence, he must continue to take it.
In Penggu, a small place where people always go missing like this has such a bad impact. It happened that Wang Laoguan settled down in Dahe Village, Jincheng, so Shao Kunshan simply took over his shell and collected alchemy in Jincheng.
The third reason is to come to me for revenge.
Shao Kunshan collected the dead meat mushrooms and took back half of the Lu family's property. He originally planned to use the meat mushrooms to completely cure the Lu family's genetic problem of congenital heart disease, but he didn't know that it ended up killing everyone in the Lu family. He immediately left Penggu and left a letter to Qingxuguan, explaining that the dead meat was made by me and that he wanted to seek justice from me. The day before yesterday, the host of Qingxu Temple, a Taoist named Jiang Kunsheng, found Lu Desheng, showed him the letter he had left, and instructed him to seek revenge from me.
Zhang Baoshan was overjoyed to get so many clues at once. He immediately called Bao Jianguo to report, regardless of the fact that it was night time. Bao Jianguo rushed over and hosted a case analysis meeting, and decided to send an action team led by Zhang Baoshan to Peng Jianguo. Gu, go to Lu's house to retrieve the remaining pills as physical evidence, and at the same time go to Qingxu Temple to investigate the situation and get a feel for Jiang Kunsheng's background.
Since the Lu family has been operating in Penggu for many years and has all-pervasive influence, the district bureau did not contact local counterparts and only gave Zhang Baoshan the power to make random decisions.
As a consultant and a client, I participated in this case analysis meeting. I did not speak during the meeting. At the end, I only suggested that I could go to Qingxu Temple with Zhang Baoshan, and suggested that in order to avoid long nights and dreams, we should set off overnight.
This volunteer made Bao Jianguo very happy, praised him repeatedly, and repeatedly told Zhang Baoshan to protect my safety.
After the meeting, Zhang Baoshan immediately transferred eight key personnel, including me, a total of ten people, took two Mitsubishi off-road vehicles, went straight to Penggu, hurried for half the night, and arrived at around five in the morning.
Everyone was sleepy and tired, so they found a place to park on the roadside and took a nap in the car without entering Penggu.
I was not sleepy, so I got off the car alone, squatted by the roadside and lit a cigarette.
Zhang Baoshan also came down, asked me for one, lit it, took two deep breaths, blew out a long stream of smoke, and then whispered: "Mr. Zhou, this is not like your approach."
I asked, "How?"
Zhang Baoshan said: "Since we have known each other, although you have participated in these things, you have not been active. How should I put it? You have given me the feeling that you are a cold-eyed bystander, focusing on things but not doing them. But this time, your The heart is in the matter.”
I took out a large amount of money from my pocket, still with some remaining incense ash, showed him the front and back, then threw it up and pressed it on the back of my hand.
Raise your hand to show.
flower.
Zhang Baoshan didn't know why.
I tossed and pressed again, nine times in a row, and every time there were flowers.
Zhang Baoshan smiled and said: "What kind of trick is this? Can you teach me? Then I will trick those idiots in the team to death."
"This is not a magic trick, it is the simplest way of asking for money by throwing money. For one thing, there are two choices, one for the word and one for the flower. I learned this method of asking for the hexagram when I was eleven years old. Every time I throw it out, it is always a word. This is the first time flowers have appeared.”
"Ah? Are you so awesome? What do the words and flowers mean?"
"The word is born with murderous intent. The person you ask the hexagram will die, not by humans, but by heaven."
"If you ask this hexagram, your life will be lost, so who will ask?"
"Asking about other people's lives is not about asking about your own life. There are so many people you want to ask. If you want someone to die, you can ask me now."
"Forget it, I don't believe in this stuff. You said the words are born with murderous intent, and God accepts people, but what about the flowers? Is it the mercy of God, the long life?"
"Hua, heaven and earth are unkind!"
"Hey, I've heard the word "Heaven and Earth is unkind". There was a TV series in Hong Kong a while ago, and they often said this sentence. "Heaven and Earth are unkind, treating all things as stupid dogs, thinking about it with hands behind your back and a straight face. It always sounds like a master." . If someone is born with murderous intent, God will accept him. If the world is unkind, then does it mean that God will not accept him?"
"Heaven and earth are merciless, and all living beings are equal. Someone once said to me that one day I can throw a flower, and I will be able to break free from the shackles of natural murder."
Zhang Baoshan frowned and looked at me, "What do you mean? It sounds a little scary. Are you going to do something anti-social?"
I laughed, put out the cigarette butt on the ground, stood up and stretched out my arms, stretched out my right hand and fished it out in the air, and suddenly a bouquet of blooming flowers appeared in my hand.
"There is a saying in Water Margin: If a letter comes from the Qiantang River, you will know that you are me today. If you change it, you can apply it to me. If you cast a hexagram and ask for divination, you will know that you are me today! I am a disciple."
