Chapter 6: The Soul Returner
Outside the pavilion rain, he looked back at the storm in the courtyard.
A regret flashed in Lige's eyes, if the power of heaven and earth caused by poetry could be used by people.
Then he will be able to walk sideways.
It's a pity, except for those extraordinary scholars who have awakened their own secret arts.
After all, poetry is an external auxiliary, which is why Lige is not immersed in it.
Otherwise, with those extraordinary people in Tingyu Xiaozhu, there are really few who can surpass him in poetry.
This made him have to feel regretful for a while, and then he shook his head, not the Jingxiang caused in the Guan Ting Yu Xiaozhu, and the sensation caused in the Star Picking Tower.
Instead, he followed the Tingyu Road when he came and went out directly.
Standing at the street entrance of Tingyu Road, looking up at the bright sun in the sky.
Lige remembers that it seemed to be more than seven o'clock when he came, and now looking at the height of the sun, it is almost nine o'clock in the morning.
Although it is not very accurate to determine the time by the sun, it is not possible to afford a mechanical pocket watch.
With the exception of sundials, most people confirm the time based on the direction and altitude of the sun.
Over time, many people have a lot of people with the concept of time even when there is no sun.
It can also be determined that the time is roughly at that stage of the day.
The confirmation time was more than nine o'clock in the morning, and I wanted to go back to the yamen first.
Decided to go to Ding Yan's house to find out the situation first, and when he came out of Tingyu Xiaozhu just now, he asked some other extraordinary professional scholars about Ding Yan's situation and the address of his home.
According to several transcendent scholars, Ding Yan's family is also in the north of Qianshui City.
And it's not very far from Tingyu Xiaozhu, only three miles away.
The distance is very close, and Lige gave up the plan to take a mechanical ox cart, can you save a copper coin and buy a few buns to eat?
So according to the address of Ding Yan's house told by those scholars, he shook his steps and walked boldly.
......
The area to the northeast of Qianshui City, in front of the mansions of the two Shishi Town Gates.
Lige looked at his head and hid in a corner, looking into the courtyard through the gate that opened from time to time.
Looking magnificent, the courtyard wall is high, and there are dozens of acres of Ding Yan's mansion.
He didn't expect that the other party was still a big family.
Through the two-hour observation here, Lige found that there were more than twenty or thirty Ding Yan's family in terms of miscellaneous servants and subordinates alone.
No wonder the two dead handymen were not claimed or identified.
So many miscellaneous servants, suddenly disappeared two.
Just find a reason to prevaricate the past.
As for the other miscellaneous servants and subordinates, even if they really knew the news of the death of the two miscellaneous servants.
I don't dare to say it casually.
Although the status of these laborers is a bit low, it does not mean that they are stupid.
The lord did not go to claim the two handymen, who of them dared to go around talking nonsense.
If you lose your job, you may lose your life.
This is the phenomenon of the world today.
Ordinary people still have no right to speak after all.
However, after two hours of observation, Lige still found a little bit of cattiness in it.
Just ten minutes ago, he saw a man in a gray cloak.
A middle-aged man dressed in gold walked out of the gate with a flattering look.
And after seeing this gray-clothed cloaked man, he didn't dare to be completely sure in his heart whether Ding Yan was the murderer or not.
Now he is sure that Ding Yan must be the murderer who killed the two miscellaneous servants.
Because from this gray-cloaked man, he sensed a cold aura.
At the same time, in this gloomy and cold atmosphere, Lige also felt the special power that only transcendent beings have.
Combining these two points, he concluded that this gray-cloaked man was a special transcendent who had mastered the secret art of resurrection from the dead.
Or to be precise, the [Soul Returning Master].
The Soul Collector is a very rare transcendent.
Through their own secret arts, they can summon the souls of various people and animals from the underworld for their own use.
And these summoned souls, in addition to being able to possess the dead, can actually be attached to the living, or some animals.
However, all the living people or animals possessed by these beings, and the possessed souls are eroded and died out by the power of the human world.
The possessed human and animal bodies will gradually become weak, until the spirit and spirit are completely dispersed and die.
Of course, the methods of the [Soul Returning Master] are not limited to these.
Therefore, the [Soul Returner] is not very popular in various countries.
On weekdays, they are hidden in the shadows.
Under normal circumstances, they will only come out of the shadows if someone takes the initiative to find them.
This is also Lige, after seeing the gray-cloaked man, he suddenly decided in his heart that Ding Yan was the murderer who killed the two miscellaneous servants.
It is determined that Ding Yan is the murderer, and Lige is no longer observing.
He planned to go back to the yamen to prepare, but now he has no direct evidence to prove that Ding Yan is the murderer.
There were no arrest procedures, and they directly broke into the Ding family's mansion to arrest people.
If he enters Ding's house and arrests someone without any formalities, the other party can sue him for breaking the law and trespassing on a famous house.
When the time came, he was killed by mistake, and the chief yamen had nothing to say.
Especially a big family like this, the relationship in Thousand Waters City is complicated?
Maybe there's a great god behind it.
For them, such an extraordinary professional catcher will not be taken into account at all.
Therefore, I want to arrest Ding Yan.
I can only wait for the day when the Tianshu Academy will teach the pen tomorrow, and arrest him at the gate of the academy.
As for entering the academy to arrest people, Lige is not so bold.
After all, on the day of the Tianshu Academy, if you arrest scholars in the academy.
This is a great provocation and insult to the academy.
Even the arrested scholars are the most intolerable evil things in the academy.
But the face of the academy still needs to be taken into account.
And arresting at the gate of the academy not only protects the face of the academy, but also makes the other party dare not take the initiative to resist.
If he dares to resist, he will directly reveal his identity as a necromancy.
When the time comes, I will leave the song and make a move.
The transcendent bird at the gate of the academy will do it directly.
As a fast catcher, he still understands these principles and methods.
......
After leaving from outside Ding Yan's mansion, Lige returned directly to the East Yamen.
Then he explained a few words to Wang Yao and asked him to go to the general yamen.
After that, he rested, and he didn't sleep well for a few days.
Now that I have finally confirmed who the murderer is, I have calmed down.
Sleepiness hits my mind unconsciously, and I don't wake up until the next day, when the sky is hazy.
When I woke up, I had an early meal.
Then change into a purple and blue pattern trapping suit, and match it with a bright trapping knife.
Then he called Wang Yao and went straight to Tianshu Academy.
