Chapter 257: One Hundred Souls

Hearing Cheng Li's question, A-Ying didn't speak, Lin Tang looked at A-Ying's expression, there was no confusion on her face, only hesitation, she knew, but she didn't know why she didn't want to say it, Lin Tang was impatient with A-Ying at all, and said coldly, "Things have come to this point, what are you still hesitating about, hurry up and tell the truth."

Lin Tang's voice frightened A-Ying, she trembled, raised her head timidly, glanced at Lin Tang, and then said, "When I say this, you may think I'm a psychopath."

They didn't know what A-Ying was trying to say, but in order to encourage A-Ying to tell the story quickly, Cheng Li shook his head and said, "No, A-Ying, we are policemen, and we have to see many strange things every day, don't be afraid, speak out boldly."

Although Cheng Li said this, A-Ying still seemed very hesitant, but when she saw Lin Tang's face, A-Ying didn't dare to hesitate anymore and hurriedly said, "Originally, I didn't know, but once, Brother Ma took me to Zheng's house, and that was the first time I saw Zheng Qiming, in the underground of his villa, there is a secret room, I think you should have seen it."

Cheng Li glanced at Lin Tang, Lin Tang nodded, and said, "That's Brother Ma's secret room, the things in it are all bronze antiques, what he used to do."

A-Ying exhaled deeply and said, "I only know a rough idea of this matter, Brother Ma is not a lone ranger, he is a member of an ancient cult called the Red Emperor Sect."

Hearing this name, Lin Tang and Cheng Li glanced at each other, Cheng Li was very excited, she didn't expect A-Ying to know about the Red Emperor Sect, they didn't interrupt A-Ying, and motioned for her to continue.

"The people in their cult have some special abilities, like a group of monsters, just like Brother Ma will crush people directly, in their cult, they are not ranked according to age or identity, but according to ability, whoever is powerful is the boss, Brother Ma seems to have always wanted to be the leader of the Red Emperor Sect, but he has never succeeded in competition."

"I heard that meaning, maybe there was someone who kept pressing on his head, so he didn't know where he got an evil technique, that is, using a hundred souls, practicing a bowl of medicinal juice, after drinking it, his energy can be instantly increased thousands of times, but there is a premise, that is, these hundred souls must be voluntary."

"Brother Ma used a lot of methods before, trying to find such a hundred souls, but where would anyone voluntarily give their lives, not to mention that Brother Ma is not a kind person at all, every time he doesn't talk to anyone, people are scared away, for which he has also killed a lot of people, so he was bitten by the police for a while, but according to his own words, these have been many years ago."

"Knowing that this year, he thought of a way, first to help this man fulfill his wish, to make a contract with him, and then after that person's wish is fulfilled, he can take that person's soul, but in fact, that person does not know that the condition for fulfilling his wish is to take his life."

"It's just that many people went crazy with joy for a while, and unconsciously signed a contract with Brother Ma, and lost their lives inexplicably, with this method, Brother Ma has saved 94 souls, and his previous method was to find someone like me to seduce those men who have no money and no power, but after a while, in order not to attract people's attention, he will solve this woman, and then change it."

"The woman I saw before was suspected, so Brother Ma simply killed her, and then found me, and then found someone else for him."

"So with the five souls you found, in fact, Brother Ma only has 99 souls"? Lin Tang asked.

"Yes, originally He Li was the last, but He Li failed, that was the first time I saw Brother Ma's eagerness, he kept thinking about it, saying that he was about to succeed, and kept forcing me to take He Li down, but He Li was too good to eat my set at all, just at this time, Lin Wei appeared, so I shifted the target to Lin Wei."

Ah Ying's voice became smaller and smaller, because she could already feel Lin Tang's gaze looking at her, becoming more and more ruthless, and Ah Ying was a little scared.

Now is not the time to vent his anger, Lin Tang told himself that they are basically clear about the purpose and method of Brother Ma's crime, and the victims who saw this case were not only those they saw, there were too many, so many that Cheng Li felt scared, and A-Ying actually only harmed five of them, and the other people, the people who harmed them had already followed them.

"I have one more question," Lin Tang asked, "Why do you suddenly suspect Lin Wei, that party in the Red Mansion was a trap specially set for him."

Speaking of Lin Wei, A-Ying's face turned a little lonely, and said, "Once Lin Wei sent me home, when I got home, Brother Ma was sitting in my house, he saw Lin Wei, he thought that I and Lin Wei teamed up to betray him, and almost killed me, but fortunately, he thought that I was still useful, so he didn't do it."

"Said that he was going to find out something, let me get along with Lin Wei as usual for the past few days, after a few days, he came back and told me that Lin Wei lied to me, he was in a gang with you, and wanted to catch Brother Ma through me, when Brother Ma said this, his face was very cruel, I was really scared, I agreed to whatever he said, so I planned the party in the Red Mansion later... , Ah Ying said resignedly.

Lin Tang closed his eyes, he didn't expect that he was still discovered by Brother Ma after all precautions, he had already said that Lin Wei said not to go to A-Ying's house, Lin Tang was very angry, but after thinking about it, the matter has passed, and Lin Wei has returned to them safely now, so don't say these frustrating words.

"I don't have anything to ask," Lin Tang said to Cheng Li.

Cheng Li nodded, put away his notebook, and said to A-Ying, "You are in the hospital during this time, and our people will protect you 24 hours a day, you can rest assured, no one can hurt you."

Ah Ying nodded, Cheng Li glanced at Lin Tang, and motioned for him to go out, so let Ah Ying have a good rest.

Out of the door, Cheng Li said to Lin Tang, "I won't report what A-Ying said, the Zheng family's secret room, I hope you can take me to take a look, although I am a materialist, but now this series of things has completely subverted my three views."

Lin Tang smiled, nodded in agreement, and said, "That's nothing, I'll go back first, you can call me if you have something."

After speaking, Lin Tang turned around and left, and returned to Lin Wei's ward, at this time Lin Wei's liquid had been transfused, and he was lying on the hospital bed bored, as soon as he saw Lin Tang coming back, he hurriedly sat up, his body recovered quickly, and there was nothing serious.

"How's it going"? Chen asked.

Lin Tang roughly retold what A-Ying said just now, and after several people heard it, they were all surprised, they didn't expect that just for the sake of a Red Emperor Sect leader, Brother Ma would hurt so many people's lives, it was simply outrageous.

"But Brother Ma's appearance in the Zheng family's villa, could it be that he has already drunk that bowl of potion?" Britney asked.

"According to my guess, when we entered the Zheng family's villa, Brother Ma should have been there, and he might even be in the secret room at the same time as us, it may be that he noticed that my current mana has increased a lot, Brother Ma is a person who can't admit defeat, and in a hurry, he felt that even if he lost a person's life, it would not be a big deal, so he drank the potion, but he didn't expect to go crazy instead, because his body couldn't handle this huge power and died", Lin Tang said.

"You deserve it!" He Li said fiercely, remembering that they actually wanted their lives, He Li felt a chill on his body, fortunately he didn't see the mood, and he has been resolutely refusing A-Ying, otherwise not only his behavior is worrying, but also helped Brother Ma to get enough of the hundred souls, and no one can beat Brother Ma at that time, I don't know how many people will die, He Li has palpitations.

"But now it's okay, Brother Ma is dead, and there is nothing left in those bronzes, which I looked at before, but I still need to purify it and expel the resentment above before I can return it to the museum," Lin Tang said.

Lin Wei hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, the grievances on the bronze are also made by innocent people, can you not expel them, and find a way to purify this grievance, which can be regarded as giving them a little comfort."

Lin Tang didn't expect this, he gave Lin Wei a complimenting look, and then said, "I remember this matter, don't worry."
