Qin Shaoyou relayed these stories about fish, shrimp, turtle and crab to everyone, which immediately triggered a discussion and speculation.
"Taking heart and courage? This is all for the scholar's Confucianism and literary courage..."
Zhu Xiucai touched his chest with one hand and his ribs with the other, showing a somewhat frightened expression.
When Cui Youguo saw this, he laughed and said, "What are you afraid of? Do you have the courage to be a Confucian scholar?"
Zhu Xiucai suddenly became unhappy. He frowned and said, "Why not? Although I have become a night watchman, I still can't let go of the book. I am more Confucian and literary than many people in county schools, government schools, and state schools."
"I'm embarrassed to mention what book you are reading without letting go of it," Cui Youyou complained.
In fact, he also knew that Zhu Xiucai's Confucianism and literary courage were indeed better than many scholars and scholars.
But he just likes to hit Zhu Xiucai, who makes this guy hit him so often.
No one else participated in the bickering between the two, and they were all pondering the clues given by the fish, shrimp, turtle, and crab.
Monk Ma touched his bare head, thinking, and said angrily:
"If the murderer is a demon, it would still make sense to poach the Confucian scholar's literary courage. After all, the blood of the warrior, the literary courage of the Confucian scholar, the compassion of the monk, the Taoist heart of the Taoist, etc. are all good things for the demon.
Especially the demons and ghosts who practice evil ways. After seizing these things, they can exchange the secret skills for their own things, which can not only improve their cultivation, but also fade away the demon body or return to yin and yang.
But the fish, shrimps, turtles and crabs in the lake said that the perpetrator was a man... What does this man want from Confucianism and Wendan? "
Qin Qiaoer held the knife in one hand and tapped her forehead with the other, shaking her head slowly.
"The fish, shrimps, turtles and crabs in the lake only say that the victims were thrown into the lake by humans, but they do not say that the perpetrators are also humans.
After all, this is just a dumping ground, not a place of murder.
Maybe the murderer is a demon and has enslaved a group of people to work for him. But it is also possible that they are really human beings, poaching Confucian scholars and scholars for some ulterior motives, such as using them to refine demons and raise ghosts..."
At this time, Zhu Xiucai also stopped arguing with Cui Yougui and interrupted to express some of his doubts:
“The night watchman of Shi Nan Mansion is also a little weird.
The people said, were they really colluding with the perpetrators and aiding the tyrants, or were they because the case was so serious that they were given a time limit to solve the case? A scapegoat to close the case so as not to be held accountable by superiors? "
After a pause, he told another thing that everyone was worried about.
"The most critical question now is where Xue Xiaobao, Xu Ba'an and others are."
This is a group of thieves who want to dig deep. It would be terrible if they could not find Xue Xiaobao and Xu Baan as soon as possible, and the bloody disaster in Cui Yougui's divination would really happen...
Qin Shaoyou is also thinking about this matter.
Since there are no clues here in Jinyan Lake, let's go to Shi Nan Mansion and ask the night watchman of Shi Nan Mansion.
See if they know anything about the situation.
Qin Shaoyou was about to turn around and give an order when he suddenly saw a wave of water in the lake.
An old turtle, holding a soaked book in its mouth, swam towards Qin Shaoyou and wanted to dedicate the book to him.
Through the supernatural power borrowed from Li Erlang, Qin Shaoyou got in touch with the old turtle and learned that this book belonged to one of the people who had his heart ripped out and his body thrown into the lake.
At that time, this book was the person's personal belongings. It was thrown into the lake together, fell from his clothes, and sank to the bottom of the water.
After such a period of soaking, the pages of this book have become soft and even torn.
However, you can still vaguely see the blood stains on the book, which did not dissipate because of the blisters.
I don't know if it was because of the severe blood staining at that time or the victim's resentment that the blood clotted and did not disappear without being soaked.
When Qin Shaoyou saw this book, he suddenly thought of a way to investigate and hurriedly turned to greet Cui Yougui.
"Brother Cui, see if you can use this book to summon the soul of the victim and ask him about the murderer."
Cui Youying said "Hello", took the book that was constantly dripping, took out the magic weapon such as the soul summoning bell from the bag, and was about to start the practice.
At the same time, Qin Shaoyou terminated [Talking with Ghosts and Gods].
Without the influence of the river god's authority, all the fish, shrimps, turtles and crabs in the lake disappeared instantly, making the lake calm again.
Qin Shaoyou felt sticky all over his body, and there was a chill.
This is a side effect of borrowing the authority of the River God.
Qin Shaoyou urged the blood energy to travel throughout the body, allowing the hot blood to offset the cold and sticky side effects.
When Su Tingyu saw this, without him having to say hello, she kneaded her hand and recited a mantra, releasing a strengthening technique to him to help him strengthen his foundation and strengthen his body so that the cold evil would not hurt him.
On Cui Youguo's side, after a lot of soul-calling operations, there was no gain.
The souls of the victimized people were not attracted, but a lot of mosquitoes were attracted.
"What's going on?" Zhu Xiucai released his blood and helped Cui Youxian drive away the mosquitoes. At the same time, he curled his lips and said, "Can you do it?"
Cui Youyou didn't argue with him this time. He frowned and said, "The soul of the deceased is neither in the underworld nor in the Yang world."
Zhu Xiucai was stunned for a moment, and his expression became serious.
"Is this the soul that is gone? It's not enough to break people's hearts, but they also destroy people's souls. This murderer is a bit ruthless... I'm afraid the corpses of these deceased will also be bruised and ashes in the end, right?"
"Indeed."
Gunshanjun spoke at this time, but he used his mountain god's ability to contact the animals on several nearby hills and asked for some information.
"After the night watchman of Shi Nan Mansion fished out the corpses from Jinyan Lake, he announced that these corpses had been bewitched by demons and ghosts, and there was a possibility that the corpses would become zombies. In order to avoid such an accident, all the corpses were removed. The corpses were burned to ashes by the lake and then scattered in the mountains, forests and lakes..."
After listening to the situations described by Gunshan Jun, Qin Shaoyou combined them with Cui Yougui's findings and immediately came to a judgment.
"The murderer is obviously afraid. He is afraid that some of the victims may be haunted and go somewhere else to complain!"
Qin Qiaoer followed his words and said: "This murderer is probably not an ordinary monster, and his identity is definitely not simple!"
Qin Shaoyou nodded, turned to look to the southeast, and added: "The night watchman of Shi Nan Mansion must know something about the situation, otherwise he would not be so cooperative."
"Let's go to Shi Nan Mansion immediately and ask the night watchman of the local Demon Suppression Department for clarification!" Qin Qiaoer was about to call everyone to set off.
"Wait a minute." Qin Shaoyou stopped his sixth sister, "Let me try and see if I can get some more clues from the victim's ashes."
"Ask for clues from the ashes?"
Qin Qiaoer was stunned.
How can we find clues from these ashes?
Besides, weren’t the victims’ ashes scattered in the mountains, forests and lakes? Where can I find it?
