Chapter 208: Very disobedient
The fishing village is close to the water's edge.
The hut was well ventilated, and the ground was covered with damp hay, so it was crawling with spiders and water flies.
Especially around the corpse, these water flies don't know whether they are sucking blood or laying eggs and parasitizing, densely packed with a lot.
The original black and gray body turned dark red after being stained with donated blood, like rolling blood beads, which looked very disgusting.
"According to your analysis, we only need to find out who this person's enemy is, and when he died, and maybe we can find the 'spirit'. Li Ning said as he put the white shroud back on.
"But to be honest, if a spirit appears in such a remote place, there is a high probability that there will be a spirit weapon. Wu Yi looked at him with a serious expression and reminded.
"I know you once said that there is a high possibility of the existence of a spirit weapon when a spirit appears, but this spirit should not have reached the 'evil' level. Li Ning nodded, understanding what she meant.
"But you have to think about the location first. IMHO, this place looks normal, and the probability of a birth spirit is really low. Wu Yi said and got up slowly, frowning slightly.
"If you talk about it carefully, I have some idea in my heart. Li Ning also got up, and the two of them turned around and walked towards the door one after the other.
The messy hay was trampled in pieces.
Many are mired in slightly sticky soil.
Wait until the curtain is lifted to come outside.
Wu Yi glanced at the little sister who was still there, and then spoke: "Most of the spirits are mainly earth-bound spirits, and they can only exist within a certain range. Because the smaller the range, the stronger the aura of death. β
Li Ning looked around as if he didn't understand: "You mean, this place is close to the Qingguan River, so because there is no way for the spirit to condense the qi of death, if you want to be born, you must rely on the spirit weapon." β
"When the air is carried by the wind, it is dispersed, and the boundary water is stopped. The breath of death born of resentment by the undead will be absorbed by the water, and it will not be able to envelop the body. Wu Yi pointed to the sky with the index finger of his right hand, pointed to the water in the distance, and nodded.
"If you follow this statement, then the aura of death in this Qingguan River is extremely strong, and it stands to reason that more undead spirits should be born. Li Ningjue still seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and found a loophole and retorted.
"Death's breath is death's breath and will not move unless the undead disappear. And water is living water, and countless creatures are born in it, and the vitality is very strong. Wu Yi explained.
Other words.
Unless it's a backwater.
Otherwise, the breath of death will not give birth to the undead.
If it had to be born.
So how powerful is the resentment of this undead.
It is necessary to cover the entire Qingguan River with the breath of death.
"No, isn't there a water ghost?" Li Ning said in surprise.
"Water ghosts, do you mean the undead in the water? We call them locks!" Wu Yi replied after a pause.
"What do you mean?" asked Li Ning curiously.
"Whenever a water ghost is born in your mouth, then there must be a hole underwater, that is, a special small environment formed by geology, which can accumulate yin qi. This kind of is very low, and it is not even possible to go ashore, and it is far from the level of the spirit. Wu Yi chuckled.
"Then what if this water ghost encounters a spirit weapon and evolves, even if the probability is very low, it is not non-existent!" Li Ning raised his eyebrows noncommittally.
Spiritual artifacts are also known as cursed things.
Spirits live in it.
"This is just our speculation, go ask the village chief. Wu Yi was stunned and then waved his jade hand.
"Hmm. Li Ning nodded.
The two then came to Zhang Laoshi and Wu Ruanrou.
Zhang honestly looked at the two of them and asked, "I don't know if the investigation is clear?"
Li Ning shook his head and said, "Not yet, we need to understand further." Tell us who the deceased is and where the body was found. β
Zhang Laoshi nodded with his mouth slightly open, and replied: "His name is Zhang Ergou, he lived in a wooden house in the west before his death, he was a little lazy, and he hardly did things. The body was found on the shore of the wooden bridge on the right. β
"Take us to the place where the body was found. Wu Yi hurriedly said.
"Okay, please come with me. Zhang Laoshi naturally would not refuse, let go of the hand holding Wu Ruanrou, and slowly stepped forward to lead the way.
Look at his old back.
Li Ning's inexplicable nose was sour.
I felt a little uncomfortable and painful.
It didn't come from him.
It seems to come from the predecessor.
Maybe it's because I think I can't cultivate and live for a few decades at most.
And his father and eldest brother are still alive even if he dies.
Even the hair is still black.
At this moment, the current Li Ning seems to have completely understood why his predecessor became a prodigal gentleman.
I think it's because of this comparison, I am very unwilling, but I am helpless, so I choose to give up on myself.
Instead of letting the black-haired people such as the father, the eldest brother and Uncle Quan send the white-haired people, it is better to have nothing to do with themselves.
Give everyone, including loved ones, a reason to abandon him.
The wooden bridge is not far from the fishing village.
In fact, it's only a few steps.
The wooden bridge is across the river.
Specially designed for docking fishing boats.
Just a little above the water.
The wooden pillars below are soaked in water all year round.
The color becomes dark black.
Occasionally, water-filled cracks can be seen.
All sorts of things in the water are parasitic on it.
Li Ning even saw a lot of small gray water snails pasted on the surface.
The wooden planks creaked when they stepped on them.
It seems to be reminding pedestrians above to pay attention to safety.
"Well, right down there, there's the place for three reeds. Zhang Laoshi said with his left index finger to the river.
"Go down and have a look. Li Ning and Wu Yi glanced at each other.
The two jumped directly off the wooden bridge.
Steady on the soft sand.
"The tide has passed, and all traces are gone. Wu Yi glanced at it, and after finding that there was no trace, he said helplessly.
"The biggest question now is whether people are dying in the water or on the shore, and that's the most important thing. Li Ning wrinkled his brows and did not let go of any corner.
"Now it seems that it was so close to the water that it should have died in the water and then pushed ashore at high tide. Wu Yi pondered.
"If that's the case, then the spirit should be in the water, but why are the corpses all divided, but one piece is not missing?" Li Ning always felt that something was wrong.
Several pieces of corpse were not attached.
But it happened to be washed together by the water.
It's also too coincidental.
"Yes!" Wu Yi nodded, also feeling very strange.
"You say, could it be that he drowned in the water, but who found him on the shore and made it like this? Li Ning's mind flashed.
"You mean that the corpse was injured twice, but in this case, is the spirit in the water or on the shore!" Wu Yi did not deny this speculation, but felt that in this way, the previous idea must be overturned.
Whether this spirit is on land or in water?
If you don't understand this, you're losing your bearings.
The investigation would then be at an impasse.
"Does it make sense to say that he was pushed into the water and drowned, and was pushed ashore by the rising tide and then attacked by the spirit? Li Ning pondered.
"So, the village chief and I will go to his house to check it out, and you continue to look for clues here. Wu Yi thought about it and said.
"Okay, stay safe. Li Ning also felt that it was faster to move separately.
Wu Yi jumped on the wooden bridge and left with Xiaomei and Zhang Laoshi.
Li Ning was left alone to continue to stay at the place where the body was found.
"If I'm right, then there should be no spirit in this water. β
"The wounds on the body of the deceased are so strange. β
"There were tooth marks on the arm and they were deep, but the wounds elsewhere were lacerations. β
Li Ning thinks.
Since it is possible to tear apart a living person.
Why do you have to take a bite?
Therefore, he suspected that the bite mark was not spiritual and most likely human.
I remember that Zhang Honest said that Zhang Ergou is a person who is unlearned and lazy.
Since he is such a person, why did he suddenly want to go to the river on a whim?
The biggest possibility is that I had to go because of something.
If you follow this logic.
The living must be on board.
You can't swim over.
Then, the person who was on the boat with Zhang Ergou at that time should have been the one who bit him or even pushed him down the river.
Li Ning squinted slightly at Qingguan River, and his gaze gradually changed to black, gray and white.
The forehead also appeared.
In the horizon of the teacher.
The whole Qingguan River has become extraordinarily different.
There seems to be an emotion at the outlet.
Waves rise.
The water surface is constantly rippling.
It's all irregular waves.
And in the water, there are all kinds of cloud-like objects swimming.
It's not a living thing.
More like gas.
"Heyβthere's traces of spiritual power. Li Ning's gaze slipped to the location of the three reeds found in the corpse, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
In the tricolor vision, a white streak with faint fluctuations walked towards the shore from the location where the deceased's body was found.
He turned slowly, followed the fluctuating white belt, and climbed ashore one foot deep and one foot shallow.
The fishing village of Xiaxian is close to the river, with a flat ground on the left, and a hill of one or two hundred meters after it.
In the distance, there is also a ring of fields, in which some yellow rice is planted that is close to maturity and full of grains.
And this spiritual white belt spreads along the damp and weedy banks towards the fishing village.
Li Ning followed briskly.
After a while, it was back to the bottom string.
Then he didn't bother to deal with the curious villagers around him.
I kept walking along the spiritual power white belt towards the west.
Not for a while.
Come to the window on the left side of a wooden house high up on a dirt slope.
Through the open wooden window, the view extends to the interior to a bedroom.
It looks very simple.
Removing a wooden bed with hay and a thin quilt, there is a simple dressing table with a bronze mirror in the middle.
In addition, there is only a tall black wooden wardrobe for the people who put the clothes, and the others are gone.
And along the wooden door that opened the bedroom, I heard the sound of someone talking.
Li Ning saw at a glance that Wu Yi was sitting on a low wooden bench with her little sister and Zhang Laoshi, chatting with a middle-aged woman about thirty or forty years old.
This woman only shows the right half of her face and figure, although she has experienced wind and frost, but the charm is still there, and you can tell at a glance that she was not bad when she was young.
In the middle of the rounded earlobe hangs a silver earring carved with a water pattern.
"Wu Yi wants to investigate Zhang Ergou, and the village chief said that this guy's house is in the west, so doesn't that mean that it is here. Li Ning looked at the woman's side face and said secretly in his heart.
A person who is short, uneducated, and extremely lazy can have such a beautiful wife.
Moreover, poor as this, but the earrings on the earlobes seem to be silver if nothing else.
In various cases.
Fools can see that this Ergou family is very disobedient.
It's too uncompatible.
