Chapter 153: The Demon Cellar! Seeing People with Brains (2)
Wu Chan half-hugged Yan Mu in her arms and pinched others, "How is it?" Where is the pain, where is the discomfort? ”
With a thud, Yan Mu's eyes widened, his mouth wide open, and he fell.
Wu Chan shouted, "Come on, carry him to the bed." ”
"Don't touch him!" Shi Yong stopped Wu Chan, quickly ripped off Yan Mu's collar, let him breathe, and then untied his robe, took out the silver needle, moxibustion his water ditch, Baihui Erdu pulse acupoint, awakened the brain and opened the mind, and then moxibustion his Neiguan acupoint, awakened his mind and calmed his heart. In the end, he used a millineedle to pierce the customs, the mountains, and the heavenly acupoints to protect his heart and pulse.
After some operation, sweat also oozed from her forehead.
The mind is empty, but ethereal and pure.
In order to save people's knee-jerk, she didn't even know why she did it.
Everyone looked at her in amazement, moving quickly and skillfully.
It wasn't until Yan Mu woke up that Shi Yong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Carry him in, drink some ginger water, and keep warm."
Saying that, she lifted her sword and got up, Yan Mu's mouth moved, and she looked at her, "Don't go." ”
Shi Yong turned around, "It's okay." I bring big black. ”
Yan Mu blinked his eyelids, his eyes were sloppy but insisted, "This person is excellent in martial arts, good at using poisons, treacherous and treacherous......"
He didn't worry about her.
Shi Yong was very calm, "I have a way to protect myself, you have a good rest." ”
……
The incense ash that Shi Yong sprinkled just now hurt the eyes of the man in black, he couldn't fight with the white horse boat, he must be in a hurry to escape, Shi Yong took Da Hei out, followed the route they tracked, and quickly caught up with Zhou Zhutou and his party.
"What about people?" Shi Yong approached and asked.
Zhou Zhutou crossed his hands on his waist and gasped, "Front, front." I'm old, I can't run, I can't run anymore. ”
Shi Yong glanced at him, "Don't chase after the official, go back and extract the footprints." ”
Her figure quickly disappeared in front of her eyes, and Zhou Zhutou was secretly frightened.
Yesterday, when she said that there was a way to prove that the murderer was a man and not a beast, everyone thought that this girl was doing her best, but she didn't expect that the person would come tonight, and before that, the entire inn was covered with a thin layer of incense ash wherever you could put your feet, and as long as there were footprints stepping on it, it would inevitably show its shape.
It's not easy for a little woman to have such a scheming.
What makes Zhou Zhutou feel even more terrible is this troupe.
Although most of the martial artists in the troupe have good martial arts, judging from tonight's fight, it is not good, it is simply a master among the heroes of the rivers and lakes, even this little girl is very skilled.
Zhou Zhutou hesitated, whether to report this matter to the county magistrate.
Shi Yong saw a white horse supporting a boat in the wilderness of Ningyi Town.
The night wind was raging, and he stood alone in the wind and let his long hair fly, as if judging which direction to go.
"Factory Father." Shi Yong shouted to him, "Follow me." ”
The white horse Fuzhou glanced at the big black dog beside her, raised his eyebrows, and nodded slightly to follow.
……
With the big black leading the way, the two chased them in the wilderness for about two quarters of an hour, and found a dilapidated farmhouse.
In the dark room, there was a large iron cage with several people chained to it, including two children.
The cage was like a large kennel, with a broken quilt in it, and several people huddled in it and shivered from the cold, and at their feet, there were overturned broken bowls, which were bare, and there was not even a little leftovers.
Seeing the stranger who suddenly broke in, the few people confined in the cage opened their eyes wide and did not move.
They didn't speak, staring blankly at the intruder, bewildered.
Shi Yong looked at the sword in his hand and turned his back behind him, "What about the people who are holding you?" ”
No one answered.
She seemed to be talking to the air.
At this time, the white horse Fuzhou had already searched the dilapidated three rooms and shook his head at her.
Shi Yong bent down and asked again, "What about that person?" We know he's back. ”
Her eyes roamed over the faces of several people.
After a few moments, a child whispered, "He's gone." ”
Shi Yong took out a candy from his pocket to coax Zhao Yunzhen, handed it to him, and asked encouragingly, "When did you leave?" Where are you going? ”
The child took the candy and just wanted to open his mouth, but the adult next to him covered his mouth.
The man looked at Shi Yong vigilantly, and his thin hands hugged the child and stared at her.
"We don't know, we don't know anything. Don't ask us. ”
Shi Yong nodded, "Then I can ask, who are you?" ”
The man's lips moved slightly, "We are cultivators. ”
"Cultivator?"
Shi Yong heard this term from Zhao Yin's mouth.
Those who believed in the Evil Monarch and wanted to ascend to immortality all called themselves cultivators, and the small leaders who led the cultivators were called "deacons".
Shi Yong looked at this thin woman with a guard in her eyes, and her eyes showed a bit of ridicule.
"This broken bowl and broken quilt and iron cage can allow you to cultivate into immortals?"
The already precarious faith was ruthlessly punctured like a bubble, and the man was angry.
"Suffer all kinds of suffering, then enjoy all kinds of blessings, you know?"
Shi Yong said lightly: "I don't understand, how can there be such ruthless parents in the world, willing to sacrifice their children's young bodies and souls to the devil, and they can't bear all kinds of suffering, but they can't bear to let their children suffer all kinds of suffering, put the blood of their relatives in the demon cellar, and become a tool for the devil to control people's hearts." ”
Shi Yong's gaze slowly moved and fell on the child who was strangled in the woman's arms.
"Look at him, how skinny. Much like a poor puppy. No, it's not as good as my dog. ”
Big Black wagged his tail and showed off his muscular body.
"Wang" twice again, majestic.
As soon as she compared her child to her dog, the woman's originally numb eyes suddenly burst into life, and her already thin face looked hideous because of the sudden widening of her eyes, and the chains on her body clanged in her anger.
"Shut up! You nobles who eat human flesh and drink human blood from above! You oppress us and exploit us, enslave us as animals, and call us, why do you want to humiliate us? Only the evil king can save us, and when we strip off the pickled flesh and purify the soul, we can be completely freed from the sea of suffering and live forever. ”
She roared angrily, full of unwillingness and fierce resistance.
It's a pity that it was used in the wrong place.
Shi Yong ignored her and looked at the child.
"Would you like to?"
The child was silent, and his eyes were afraid.
Shi Yong said: "I am willing to be locked in a cage, licking and eating rotten food like a pig and dog, I can't see the day, I can't see my partners, I can't see the peach blossoms blooming in spring, I can't see the scorching sun in summer, I can't see the yellow leaves flying in autumn, and I can't see snowflakes in winter...... You want your body to be in this cold cage of darkness forever, like a domestic animal that is raised by man, waiting for death to come. And the desire of that flying immortal outside the sky is fake, it is a scam, and it will never come true. ”
"I don't ......"
The child opened his mouth and said two words, but his mother covered his mouth.
The child's innocent eyes widened and looked at Shi Yong, his eyes full of pleading.
Shi Yong understood.
Only adults have so many desires, wanting to become immortals and become Buddhas and live forever, and children are often simple and direct, his eyes are clear and clean, black and white, this is a child who has not been polluted.
Life in this cage was just a nightmare for him.
"Don't be afraid. Sister save you. ”
Shi Yong stood up and swung his sword to cut the lock of the cage.
Unexpectedly, several people inside were agitated, they didn't want to be rescued, the thin mother who hugged the child, when the chain was about to be pulled apart by Shi Yong, even went crazy, strangled her child's neck, her eyes were on the verge of despair, and she let out a strange and sharp scream.
"No—"
"The evil king has given me eternal life."
"My child, unclean child, may death save your pickled soul."
“……”
Before the child's eyes were pinched by his mother, Shi Yong and Baima Fuzhou finally restrained these crazy "cultivators" and snatched the child back from the mother's hands.
"Wow!"
At that time, the moment Yong took the child into his arms, the frightened and trembling child finally cried.
Shi Yong patted him on the back and told him in the gentlest tone he had ever used in his life.
"Don't be afraid. You are saved. ”
Her eyes were on the white horse and she smiled.
"Did you see it, this big brother is a grand duke from the capital. He can help you with everything. ”
The white horse Fuzhou's clear and beautiful face, when he heard this, was slightly cold, and when he saw the child's innocent eyes, he had to change to a smile and a gentle look, and nodded at him.
Shi Yong glanced at the white horse boat.
"You tell us, where did the man who imprisoned you go? Where are you from, and why are you here? ”
"Aoyama." The child sobbed, "We are from Qingshan Town. That villain, who just came back, didn't know what he took, and left again. Shortly before you entered......"
Come back and get your things and leave.
Shi Yong looked at the cold earth rammed room, and seemed to smell a strong yin smell in the air.
It's dark and gloomy, so you can't leave your children here.
The white horse helped the boat to make a sound, and soon several Dongchang soldiers rushed over.
"Clean up this place."
The man in the cage was still screaming.
It makes a high-pitched and eerie cry, like a demon from hell.
The white horse Fuzhou glanced back, looked at the child in Shi Yong's arms again, and said lightly:
"Take the letter of this seal and inform the government."
Shi Yong took Da Hei around this suburban house several times, and the strange thing was that the source of smell on that person's body seemed to have disappeared from here. The Great Black brought them here, and walked around anxiously, but there was no trace of the man.
I've met a master.
————
Guiyuan Tianju Inn has been surrounded by people from the government.
Shi Yong fulfilled his promise and indeed proved to Zhou Zhutou and Wang Cheng that they were not human beings.
Zhou Zhutou saw the man in black with his own eyes, and also extracted shoe prints from the incense ash that the man in black stepped on during the night attack.
"Eight-inch shoes, seven feet tall. He is long and athletic. ”
After listening to Zhou Zhutou, Shi Yong added.
"The ring finger of the right hand has been injured or broken with a blunt object."
Zhou Zhutou was startled and looked at her suspiciously.
"How did you see that?"
Shi Yong: "With your eyes." ”
Zhou Zhutou: "......"
With the eyes, of course, but not with the brain?
"The man is clearly wearing a handguard, and his palms and knuckles are wrapped, how can you see it?"
Shi Yong thought for a while, "Use your brain." ”
“……”
The crowd looked at her without saying a word.
Shi Yong said: "He uses a sword in his left hand, and his right hand seems to be inconvenient, when he is turning the window, I have seen him try to help with his hand, and when his fingers are curled, only his ring finger can't be rolled up——"
Speaking of this, she glanced at Wu Chan coldly.
"Perhaps, it was injured by Xiao Mingxiang."
Xiao Mingxiang is a clever person, his martial arts are good, that person can kill him unknowingly, he must have used some means, and Xiao Mingxiang has a trace of sobriety, it is impossible not to save himself or struggle, so it is not impossible to leave some marks on the murderer.
Wu Chan nodded, her pupils dark.
"Why did he kill Xiao Mingxiang?"
There are so many people in the drama troupe, why did Xiao Mingxiang choose Xiao Mingxiang alone to kill?
Did you bump into it by chance, or did it happen on purpose?
No one can answer this question.
At dawn, when the people in the yamen were gone, Shi Yong told Wu Chan.
"The root of all this is still in Qingshan Town. To find out, we have to return to Aoyama. ”
The expression on Wu Chan's face was a little complicated, "Do you want to go back to Qingshan, is it for the case, or for the ......?"
Shi Yong was silent, waiting for her to continue.
Wu Chan didn't say anything.
Instead, the white horse boat picked up this sentence.
"If it's for Zhao Yin, I advise you not to go."
Shi Yong was inexplicable and looked at the people around her who were looking at her.
"I don't think it's for the case?"
The crowd did not answer.
The white horse Fuzhou chuckled, and in the dim skylight, his gentle and beautiful face had a shallow sneer, as if he was to Shi Yong, and as if to himself, and then said to himself:
"Qingshan Town, it's worth visiting."
