Youshu Xiaolu calmed down the people with a few hands, and then walked to the couch and covered the queen's face with a white handkerchief. No matter what mistakes this woman makes, she is the mother of the master after all, she brings life to the master, and with these two points alone, Youshu will be grateful to her and will avenge her.

Although the Nine Emperors tried their best to forbear, they inevitably let out a trace of gloom, and they also walked to the couch and stroked the back of the queen's cold hand.

Emperor Zhong Kang waved his sleeves, intending to send everyone away, so that the queen could get a moment of peace. At this moment, the six princes, who had never opened their mouths, said word by word, "I don't believe it!" The murderer is obviously Zhao Youshu, just because he is Lao Jiu's person, and he played a few street performers' usual tricks, so he cleared the suspicion? Let the queen mother and the royal sister die in vain? I don't believe it, I don't believe it anyway! Unless he comes up with tangible evidence, I will go to beat the drum, kowtow in front of the Zongren Mansion and shout grievances, and let the people of Shangjing make decisions for me. ”

Everyone turned their heads in unison, their expressions were surprised, but the Nine Emperors had expected it, and said lightly, "You don't pretend?" ”

"My relatives are all dead, what's the use of keeping this life?" The six princes sneered, and they no longer regarded Lao Jiu and Emperor Zhong Kang as relatives.

Emperor Zhong Kangdi was furious and was about to reprimand, but he heard someone Shu say, "The evidence you want will arrive immediately." The words fell and looked at the master and asked in a low voice, "Can you send someone to send the body of the county lord of Mingzhu into the palace?" Also, let them let my mother go quickly, she was wronged. ”

The Nine Emperors promised one by one and sent people to do it. When the ministers heard that there was another corpse to be brought in, they were a little worried in their hearts, and they couldn't run away again. What is the boundary of the palace? How can you make you come and go? If it weren't for the fact that the dead person was the mother of a country, and the murderer was the future crown princess, it was a matter of national ancestry, and they wouldn't dare to make such a fuss.

In less than half an hour, the bloated corpse of the Pearl County Lord had been placed in the Fengluan Palace. Originally, the main hall with large windows and bright light was now hung with white flags and incense candles, and it looked a little eerie under the smoke. The courtiers were all crowded in the corner and didn't dare to open their mouths, let alone look around, but several royal families walked over slowly, their expressions solemn.

When the six princes were crazy, no one cared about him, even his uncle's family never gave him a bite of food, a tael of silver, but the usual arrogant and arrogant Mingzhu County took him in without hesitation, for which he frequently had conflicts with the concubine, and received many reproaches from his in-laws. He already has a deep relationship with the county lord of Mingzhu, and he has the grace of being sheltered for his life, how can he still pretend to be able to hear the news of her and the death of her mother? He threw himself on his knees with a thud, and shed tears before he could say a word.

Emperor Zhong Kangdi is also very unbearable, after all, it is his own blood and bones, how can he really ignore her after his temperament? Especially when she died, she was still pregnant with a child, and there was a great life ahead. The father and son did not cry, only cried silently, which made the ministers feel sad.

However, the Nine Emperors and the Fifth Prince of Zhao had calm faces and did not show sadness. That's it, Zhao Wugongzi actually took out a dagger from his sleeve pocket and gestured on the body of the Mingzhu County Lord, what is this for?

"What do you want to do?" The courtiers didn't dare to ask, but the six princes were furious, and pinched Youshu's wrist hard, hating to break it.

The Nine Emperor Princes were about to break the siege, when they saw Youshu change the dagger to the other side at a speed that was so fast that it was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, raised it and quickly made a cut in the middle of the face of the Pearl County Lord, warning word by word, "Hello, let's see, is this corpse your sister?" As he spoke, he peeled off the skin on both sides along the edge of the knife.

This move was really shocking, causing the six princes to suddenly shake him off, take two steps back, and this retreat, his vision became wider, and he happened to see another layer of skin exposed under the peeled skin, what was going on?

Emperor Zhong Kang and the Nine Emperor Princes also saw this scene and hurriedly surrounded them. Youshu was free, so he slowly peeled off the clothes of the lord of Mingzhu County and continued to peel the skin. The timid courtier had turned his back and cowered in the corner, and the bold one realized that something was wrong, so he cautiously moved over. Cheng Engong was not very bold, but because it was his niece who died, how could he ignore it, so he had to move forward hard, and when he got closer, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, "What, why is this?" How could there be a pair of skins under the county lord's skin? ”

Well? What do you mean by having a pair of skins? Realizing that there was a frightening meaning hidden in this sentence, the courtiers who did not dare to look directly trembled and almost fainted.

"This person seems to be the second wife of the Anle Hou Mansion!" I don't know who shouted, and more people recognized this skin. How could a good county lord become the second wife of the Hou Mansion? It's getting more and more mysterious! They don't have enough brains, and they are completely stunned when they can't figure it out.

The sixth prince also wanted to stop Youshu's behavior of desecrating the body of the imperial sister, but when he saw this scene, he couldn't even stand, so he crawled to the ground and retreated, and then shook like chaff. Who exactly is this corpse?

Emperor Kang, who was as bold as Zhong, also turned his head away with a grim face, not daring to look at it again.

Youshu continued to move. He made a slash in the middle of the second layer of skin, slowly peeling it off, revealing the third layer, and beckoned, "Who came to help me identify it, and who is this?" ”

No one dared to move, but the Nine Emperor Princes leaned over to take a closer look and guessed, "After many years, my memory is a little vague, if I am not mistaken, it should be Lord Li's eldest daughter, who met at the palace banquet five years ago." The words fell and beckoned outside.

Master Li, who was hiding in the corner, froze when he heard this, but he didn't dare to disobey, he moved step by step, trembling the rope, and finally walked closer and glanced at it quickly, and then slammed it on the ground. The guard stepped forward to check the pulse, saying that he was stunned.

"It seems that it is indeed Miss Li." With a shushu head, he continued to peel the skin, and his expression was always calm and light.

Some courtiers had already knelt down and kowtowed to him from afar, shouting in a hoarse voice, "Lord An Guogong, please don't peel it!" That's the end of it! "I always felt that something terrible would happen if I continued to peel it off.

Without waiting for Youshu to answer, the Nine Emperor Princes said coldly, "Don't you want to see the evidence?" Then let you have a good life. Who is this corpse, we must check it out today, otherwise who will wash the dirty water on Shu and Mrs. Zhao? ”

Emperor Zhong Kang, who was also going to stop Youshu, coughed, then retreated to the outside room, waved his hand and said, "My chest is tight, go and breathe." Sixth, don't you want evidence, go over and look carefully. ”

The six princes wanted to cry without tears, and they couldn't wait to faint in the hall. Such a corpse, such a strange thing, which has never been seen even in the most terrible nightmare, and it is better for him to continue to pretend to be crazy than to be really frightened mad.

Human skin is already thin and extremely elastic, one by one, and dozens of pieces are covered. An hour later, when Youshu finally peeled them off, revealing the rancid and blackened texture and internal organs, there was a basin full of human skins piled up beside him, and each one was identified, and the guards were ordered to write it down on paper.

"If you look at this list, what do you come up with?" Youshu used the tip of a knife to pry open the sternum and show the unbearable inner cavity to everyone.

No matter how bold he was, he finally couldn't bear it at this time, and a group of ministers rushed out of the hall, lying on the railing and vomiting, and smoked Zhong Kangdi, who was standing under the porch to breathe, out again. Seeing the miserable situation of everyone, he became more and more afraid to go in, but said with righteousness and awe, "After vomiting, I will continue to investigate the case." Don't you want to avenge the Queen? Want to bring the killer to justice? I give you this opportunity. ”

"Emperor Xie reuses." Everyone had words of suffering, but they still had to kneel down to receive the order, and then you pushed me, I pushed you, squeezed and squeezed, trembling and entering the palace again, just a few steps to see the six princes paralyzed on the ground in fright, with a lot of yellow and white residues sticking to the placket, and I thought that I had vomited.

"Come here." Youshu had already opened her chest, and when everyone came to see, her eyes swept slightly in the crowd, and she wrung her eyebrows and said, "Why didn't the sixth prince come?" This evidence is specially shown to him, otherwise I would have burned the body without much effort. ”

Why didn't you say it earlier? Burn it, wow, hurry up and burn it! The ministers shouted in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it on their faces, they all looked at their noses and noses, and waited in silence. It's not that they don't want to speak, but they're afraid that they will vomit when they open their mouths. Youshu wanted to ask again, but the Nine Emperors had raised their hands and ordered the guards to bring the Six Princes over.

The six princes' hands and feet were weak, hanging like a noodle on the guards, and their heads were deflected one hundred and eighty degrees, but they refused to look at the corpse. The Nine Emperor Princes pinched him by the jaw and straightened him, and he immediately closed his eyes and resisted to the end.

"Sixth, the royal sister died unjustly, you should take a look." The Nine Emperor Princes couldn't, so they had to open their mouths to persuade.

The six princes trembled violently, and it took a quarter of an hour before they finally calmed down and opened their eyes. I saw that there was a rotting mass of internal organs in the open chest cavity, which was black, bloody, and stinky, and it was impossible to distinguish at all. This scene, this smell, was really terrifying, making the six princes who had just mustered up their courage vomit again. Fortunately, the guards were prepared, and immediately connected the copper basin in their hands under him.

The ministers standing on the side covered their faces with their hands, they couldn't bear to look directly, and they also complained about the six princes and Cheng'en Gong in their hearts. Whatever the immortal master said about this matter, he directly buried the queen and the county lord, and let Mrs. Zhao go, isn't it over? I'm going to make a lot of moths!

Youshu waited for the six princes to finish spitting, then picked up the dagger and pointed at the internal organs with the tip of the knife, "How much can you understand?" ”

The sixth prince waved his hands again and again, vomited again and again, and wanted to kneel down for him, begging him to let him go.

Youshu shook his head, expressing regret for his IQ, and turned his face to Dali Siqing, who followed Cheng Engong to investigate the case, and said, "I remember that you are very good at autopsy?" ”

Dali Siqing, who is usually bold, trembled suddenly, and then waved his hand stiffly, but when he saw the Nine Emperor Prince's sleeves wave, two guards also carried him over, and almost clubbed his head on the corpse. As a last resort, he could only take a quick look.

"Judging from Cheng Dù, whose internal organs are rotting, can you tell the time of death?" Shu asked lightly.

The smell of corpses is too strong, and I don't know how Zhao Wugongzi and the Nine Emperors can endure it. The people on top are really powerful! Dali Siqing said quickly while thinking nonsense, "Judging from the decay of the internal organs, this person has been dead for at least two months. ”

"However, it is covered with dozens of layers of skin, which will more or less protect the internal organs, so the death time may be longer." Youshu added. It was precisely because these interlocking skins tightly locked the rancid smell of the internal organs that he was unable to identify the monster in the first place. Now, the skinned monster has long since lost its previous fat appearance, and has become a thin skeleton, and there is no fetus in the womb. The so-called pregnancy is just to cover up the appearance of rapid enlargement and deformation.

Youshu also thought about it for a long time before making this bold judgment, of course, it may not be accurate, but the abnormality of the internal organs is enough as evidence. He continued, "The entrails are already **, can you still tell which ones are?" Let's take a look at what's missing? ”

Dali Siqing, who had already turned his face, couldn't, so he had to continue to observe, and after a while, he was surprised and said, "Actually, there is a lack of heart." ”

"Are you sure?"

"Naturally, I know for sure."

"Okay, you stand down."

Dali Siqing was like an amnesty, and ran to the middle of the ministers to find a sense of security, but because of the smell of corpses on his body, he was pushed around and was very disgusted. Come to think of it, after today, he won't think about solving the case for a long time, especially the examination of the body.

Youshu looked at the six princes and asked slowly, "Just ask, is a person who is covered with hundreds of layers of skin, whose internal organs have rotted for three months, and who still lacks a heart, is she still alive?" ”

The head of the sixth prince was completely confused, and he couldn't answer at all. In order to prevent being called out again, Dali Siqing hid behind a minister and shouted, "How can you be considered alive?" What's more, she can't even be counted as a person! Mrs. Zhao's murder of the royal family is a fictitious crime! ”

Youshu was very satisfied with his appearance, and said, "There is finally a person who understands." That's right, this thing lying here is not a human, but a monster. These skins are looted after foraging for food, and used to hide their identity. It comes and goes in and out of your mansions in these skins and slaughters your relatives. And my mother had a peace charm on her body, blocking its attack, and it would suddenly fall to the ground. According to my judgment, it has been twelve hours since the queen died, and I think that at this time yesterday, the lord of Mingzhu should have asked to see the queen, right? She was dead by then, and what you see is nothing but an illusion. ”

Several palace maids hiding in the corner fainted when they heard this.

He didn't say that it was okay, but the more he said it, the more panicked the ministers felt, but they also longed for the peace charm in his mouth. Even such a terrifying monster can be killed, how powerful should it be? Isn't it portrayed by the immortal master himself? Can you ask for one?

When the safety of their lives was threatened, where did these people still have the heart to find out the truth, they couldn't wait to kneel at Youshu's feet, crying and shouting and begging him to give him a talisman. Even the Six Princes had reverence and longing in their eyes, apparently completely suppressed.

Youshu didn't pay attention to them, turned around and walked to the copper basin containing the skin, threw a few karmic talismans into it, and then put his hands together, his fingertips linked, and pinched a set of very mysterious and complex hair recipes. A purple flame suddenly appeared in the copper basin, and many black silhouettes faintly appeared in the light spots, and if there were people who knew each other, they would definitely be able to recognize their identities.

They first turned into green smoke and swirled over the main hall, letting out a sobbing cry, and then they met and circled each other, forming a black vortex and slowly disappearing. The flames lit up everyone's terrified faces, but it also sent chills down their bodies.

When the sunlight shone in again, the copper basin was empty, there were no purple flames, no hundreds of human skins, no burned black ashes, as if the previous qiē was an illusion. But as everyone knows, this is not a hallucination, but a real thing, because the skeleton covered with rotten flesh is still sitting on the bamboo mat.

Youshu finished the soul of the dead, and then threw the fire talisman on the skeleton, and said slowly, "Finally, I have to tell you one thing, as long as the heart of this monster is not destroyed, it can never die." Your mission now is to search the whole city and secretly find it and bring it to me for disposal. ”

The courtiers, who saw the corpses burned to ashes, heard such bad news before they could breathe a sigh of relief, and almost fainted on the spot. Especially the commander of the forbidden army, who was in charge of the defense of Gyeonggi, his face was very pale, and he said in a trembling voice, "Immortal Master, it is a monster, how can his subordinates catch it?" Why don't you give a talisman to your subordinates too? ”

Fake public and private, shameless! The ministers were angry in their hearts, and their knees were also slightly itchy, and they wanted to kneel down for the immortal master and beg for a request.

After a little consideration, Youshu gave him a talisman, then poured two drops of blood on the miniature picture of Shangjing that had already been made, and pointed, "Follow the blood beads and you will meet a rotten dog, and you can subdue it with this net." Remember, you must never let go of the rope on the way to me. The words fell and took out a piece of gold wire from his sleeve pocket, on which hung many small scarlet bells.

The commander of the forbidden army did not dare to desecrate the treasure, so he quickly wiped his hands to pick it up, and then strode away with his subordinates.

Emperor Zhong Kang, who was waiting outside the corridor, had already heard the conversation of several people, and remembered the peace charm that Youshu had given him a few days ago, so he immediately ran towards the Heart Cultivation Palace, so anxious that he even forgot to summon the royal court. knew that the peace talisman was so powerful, he wouldn't throw it aside if he said anything, and he didn't know if it had been taken away by the palace maid now. Yesterday, the monster came to ask to see him, but because he was angry and drove people away, he went to see the queen instead. If it weren't for this thought, maybe the corpse with the knife in the chest would have been replaced!

The more Emperor Zhong Kangdi thought about it, the more afraid he became, and from then on he didn't dare to put the peace charm sent by Youshu indiscriminately, and even took a bath and had to take a small glass bottle and hang it around his neck-

Because there are monsters rampant in Beijing, threatening everyone's lives all the time, it makes people forget the death of the queen and the lord of Mingzhu. Before catching the monster, the royal family did not dare to mourn, so they had to find an ice coffin to store the queen's body. As for where the body of the Pearl County Lord went, I'm afraid only the monster knows.

After waiting for a day and night in fear, the commander of the Forbidden Army lived up to his expectations and entered the palace with a half-rotten dog in a gold wire net. Youshu did not immediately burn the monster, but put it in an iron cage and placed an enchantment around it, making it impossible for it to escape.

"Immortal Master, what are you going to do with it?" The Commander of the Forbidden Army asked in a low voice, with a fanatical adoration on his face that he didn't even know about.

The rest of the ministers were invited by the Nine Emperor Princes to the East Palace to watch the monsters, and they complained bitterly. They had already written a post to ask the immortal master for their guilt, and some people personally went to the Zhao Mansion to kowtow and bow down, offering the immortal master as an ancestor. In the future, whatever the immortal master says is what it is, and they all believe it, is this not possible? Why scare them again? It was only at this time that they understood the Nine Emperor Princes of the year: it turned out that it was really painful to not be able to sleep at night, and it was easy to be stunned.

Youshu had no intention of tossing everyone, but he always had a tendon in his mind, and he always thought that since he had taken over this matter, he had to explain it clearly to everyone, so he summoned all the people in the know.

He walked around the cage and bowed, "Yes, it's right." I don't know what it is, but I know how it survives. As long as there is a piece of minced meat left in its heart, no matter what kind of animal it takes, it can quickly parasitize its body and then hunt humans. As the saying goes, the human or animal heart should be its food, and it can be concocted into a human form through guò skin, and wander in the mortal world to do evil. ”

"Immortal Master, don't talk about it, dispose of it quickly, right?" A sixty-year-old prince rubbed his heart and shouted. He regretted it, he shouldn't have followed Cheng Engong in the first place to make a fuss, otherwise he wouldn't have had such a.

"If I don't explain it to you clearly, what if you say I'm pretending to be a ghost? Moreover, those words are all my speculation, and there is no tangible evidence, as a scientific researcher, we must actively seek verification and work hard to explore, how can we act on speculation? ”

Okay, you're right, let's move on. All the ministers supported their foreheads, showing expressions of lovelessness. Only the Nine Emperors supported their cheeks with one hand, staring at their lover, their eyes were affectionate, and they were very addicted. The so-called what pot with what lid, that's about it.

Youshu seriously rejected everyone's requests, and only then did his fingertips move slightly, shooting out a splitting talisman, splitting the crazy barking dog in half. A heart fell to the ground, emitting a strong stench. The stench seemed to have a magical power, and it strongly attracted the nearby animals. Youshu had already prepared a dozen rats and locked them in a small cage next to them, and now they were all restless and noisy.

Youshu opened the barrier and put the rats in, they didn't gnaw at the carrion, but they all pounced on the heart, and you and I quickly ate it all in one bite. After a few breaths, their eyes began to turn red and they killed each other until the strongest rat won. Instinctively, it devoured the carcasses of its companions, and in a matter of moments it had grown to the size of a wild cat, and its fur began to rot and mottle, similar to the description of the dog before it.

This qiē proved Youshu's guess correct, and under the blank gaze of the courtiers, he threw out the fire charm and burned the rats scurrying around the cage to ashes.

"Immortal Master Chitose, Chitose, Chitose!" The hall was quiet for a quarter of an hour before everyone's relieved voices rang out.

From this day on, the big and small officials in Beijing, celebrities and nobles, no longer dared to say a bad word about Zhao Wugongzi. It was he who was awarded the title of National Teacher after marrying the prince and stayed in the Star Picking Building, and everyone strongly agreed and warmly congratulated. Whenever something strange happens to anyone's family, they will run to Zhao's mansion, pestering Zhao Shangshu or Wang's family, and asking for an immortal master's object, saying that it can drive away evil spirits. What's more, they are also made into sculptures in the appearance of the five sons and placed at home, offering incense and candles every day.

Youshu accompanied him to fight everywhere and created a lot of killing karma, although he said that there would be no retribution, the Nine Emperor Princes, no, he should be called Emperor Yuan now, but he inevitably remembered it in his heart. After the two got married, he began to be a vegetarian, and widely practiced benevolent government in Kyushu, so that the people lived in peace, every family prospered, and reproduced the prosperity of the Zongsheng Emperor.

The two live in the deep palace, only each other, everything is discussed, and they have never blushed once. Emperor Yuan did not accept the palace concubine until his death, and only adopted a few children to be carefully raised in the year of not being confused, and then gave the Zen position to the most capable person, and he took the national teacher to travel around.

It is said that the body was buried in the imperial tomb of Emperor Zongsheng, where there is a reincarnation formation, which can make them never leave.
