Chapter XXXIV: Instruments of Torture
"Brother Morrowind, come and take a look."
Li Chenfeng followed Taozi's voice and went upstairs, there were four humanoid sculptures in this room, next to a double bed and a dresser, it seemed that this should be a bedroom.
By this time, they had smashed one of the sculptures, and there was still no body in it, but there was a strange charm in its head.
Li Chenfeng picked up the talisman and took a closer look, some of the patterns and words on it were somewhat similar to the ghost suppression talisman taught to him by the yellow-robed Daoist, but there were also differences in some places.
Li Chenfeng took out his mobile phone and asked in the group of fierce ghosts, and got the answer of the yellow-robed Taoist leader that this was a spirit talisman that could bind part of the ghost's soul. Ordinary Taoists don't need such a charm, and its effect is generally used in some evil ways, such as raising ghosts and the like.
Looking at Li Chenfeng's serious expression, Taozi's heart seemed very uneasy, and asked, "Brother Chenfeng, is there any secret in this talisman, how do I feel that it is a little different from the talisman you gave us that day." ”
Li Chenfeng looked at the message on his phone in a daze, and only after a long time did he come to his senses, and said with a slight smile: "Actually, I don't know what kind of spell this is, it should have little to do with the corpse we are looking for." ”
Taozi nodded. "Okay then, I don't think the ones in this bedroom are going to be funny, let's go find them elsewhere."
After they left the bedroom, Li Chenfeng immediately began to rummage through the cabinets, and then found a strange box in the drawer of the dresser, and when he opened it, it was a pill wrapped in yellow rune paper.
He took a closer look, this thing was dark red, with many black stripes similar to spider silk on it, and if he thought about it, this thing was somewhat similar to the elixir refined by those who sought immortality in ancient China.
Li Chenfeng is a little incomprehensible, in this age, will anyone still believe in this thing, the facts have proved that eating this "elixir" containing a lot of heavy metals not only does not achieve any longevity effect, but may also be poisoned.
That guy is a well-known art award, he can't even understand such a little common sense, or is there some other reason for this?
Walking out of this room, Li Chenfeng continued to move forward along the dim corridor, next to him were a few sculptures that had been smashed by Taozi, this mansion had been a mess by them, and these priceless works of art had been almost destroyed, Li Chenfeng really wanted to see how the sculptor would react when he came home and saw these scenes.
But I have to say that this sculptor is indeed perverted enough, his sculptures don't seem to have any other themes except for naked women, staring at these "lifelike" things for a long time, which makes Li Chenfeng's heart a little anxious, after all, some places are too realistic.
He went to another room, which seemed to be a bedroom, but there were no sculptures, and there was a bookshelf in the corner with art books on paintings and sculptures, and some certificates he had won in various carving competitions.
Some of these certificates look new, but some of them look old, covered with dust, and they look like they haven't been cleaned for a long time.
Li Chenfeng picked up one of the books, blew off the dust on it, opened it and looked at it, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Because there is a date written on the back of the certificate, April 25, 1965, which is a certificate from 50 years ago, but this guy looks like he is only in his forties, even if he is well maintained and the person looks younger, it is impossible to ......
At this time, there was a scream from upstairs, Li Chenfeng hurriedly turned around and rushed up, only to see that the third floor was empty, except for the accumulation of some cardboard boxes, there was no other thing, it seems that this place should be specially used to store old things.
Taozi and the others opened one of the cardboard boxes, and the three of them sat on the ground in fright, but their eyes were staring directly at the contents of the box.
"What's the situation?"
"Morning ...... Morrowind ......"
The box was full of the girl's clothes, stained with a lot of blood, and some long hair was sandwiched in them.
"Isn't it?"
Li Chenfeng lifted the cardboard box and poured out the contents inside, he originally guessed that there might be a dismembered corpse inside, but on closer inspection, there was nothing else in it except clothes and hair.
"Open the other boxes and take a look."
Taozi held up a cardboard box next to him, and as soon as he opened it, there was a strong blood. I saw ropes, handcuffs, shackles, whips, and knives inside, all stained with blood.
Zebo took a deep breath, clutched his chest and whispered, "It seems that the rumor is not false, the sculptor took the young girl home and tortured her to death in a cruel way......"
Then they opened all the cardboard boxes, all of which contained those bloody things, most of which were blood-stained clothes and shoes and socks of girls, followed by some very perverted torture instruments, Li Chenfeng even suspected that those torture instruments of the ten major tortures of the Manchu Qing Dynasty could be found here.
The smell of the box made them gag, and the timid Xiaoyu kept wiping her tears beside her, wanting to cry but not daring to make too much noise.
"Hell, didn't you say that the police came to search him before, why didn't they find such a conspicuous thing?"
Taozi said: "Maybe these things were put somewhere else at that time. ”
Zebo said, "There must be some secret in his house, we have smashed almost all the statues in the house, but we haven't found a single body." ”
"Then let's look for it."
Xiaoyu said: "I think we should call the police first, even if the body is not found, having these things as evidence should be enough to bring him to justice." ”
"But ......," Li Chenfeng thought, if the police intervened in the investigation, these murders would indeed be easy to figure out, but the painting skin he had received in the group of fierce ghosts, and it would become a trouble to find those imprisoned souls.
Because at that time, this place will definitely be protected as a crime scene, and it will definitely be difficult for idle people like him to blend in.
"Wait, maybe we can still find those bodies, and the evidence will be even more favorable."
"But Brother Morrowind ......"
Taozi patted Xiaoyu on the shoulder and said, "Xiaoyu, Brother Taozi knows that you are afraid, but you must not forget the purpose of our coming here, since we said that we want to find the corpses, we must find them." Don't worry, with me, Zebo, and Morrowind here, nothing will go wrong. ”
Li Chenfeng smiled slightly, thinking that these boys wanted to investigate the case, and they clearly regarded this as a game, just like the supernatural games they played before, just looking for some excitement.
"Alright, let's look around closely."
