Yu Xia talked to Gu Dabao for a while, and after eating, they each rested, and Jiang Jiujiu took over Jiang Lingfan at night, and laid a bunk in Yu Xia's house for surveillance.

The next day, the four of them gathered early on the first floor, and after breakfast in Dengyun Building, several people went to the Jade Building, which was the place where the crime occurred, and was the most likely place to find clues.

Walking in Yanliu Lane, several people obviously felt that it was a lot more deserted.

"There was a murder in the Jade Building, and it was also seized yesterday."

Jiang Jiu Dao.

"Yesterday, the official mission found a lot of remnants of people's bones, and many maids and servants disappeared for no reason in the past half a year, because they were all bought from Renyazi, and there was no household registration, so they were all hidden, and they were only found yesterday."

Several people felt sorry when they heard this, those people may have to sell their children and daughters because of the poverty of their families, and some people may be the children of good people who were kidnapped by gangsters, and they were sold into the Qinglou to be a subordinate, but in the end they ended up like this because of the selfish desires of others.

Gu Ao has been ambushed, and there is nowhere to find him if he wants to pursue it again, but Wan Ju, as an accomplice, is unforgivable.

"For the sake of money, lose all conscience, this kind of person should be cut with a thousand knives!"

Speaking of Wanju, Jiang Lingfan hated it and gritted his teeth.

As for Gu Ao, he himself chose to cut off his soul and extract his memory, which can be regarded as self-punishment.

In the punishment of Daoyuan Hall, there is a punishment on the **, and there is also a punishment on the soul.

If those who have committed the most heinous crimes, it is not enough to break their bones and scatter ashes, their souls will also be detained, not entered into reincarnation, and tortured in the yang world.

With the ferocity of ancient means, the number of human lives mutilated is so great that it should not have been possible to escape such a punishment.

"He was shrewd, knowing that he could not escape the punishment after death, so he simply used soul dementorship on himself, but let him easily escape the punishment of soul detention."

Thinking of Gu Ao, Jiang Lingfan hated it so much.

Such a murderous and evil cultivator, before he died, he didn't forget to put them together, so shrewd, why did he go earlier? let his family fall into such a situation, and let himself end up in a bleak end.

It can be seen that sometimes, too shrewdness is not a good thing.

Heaven is clear, cause and effect are reincarnated, and good fortune is limited, and if you take all the blessings here, there will be relatively less in other places.

Jiang Lingfan lowered his eyes and thought wildly, and when he raised his eyes again, several people had already arrived in front of the house where Xu Hao died in the Jade Building.

This is the place where the crime occurred, and it has long been sealed, and idlers are not allowed to enter, so it is still the same as it was when the crime occurred.

"Last night, I checked the classics overnight, and found that the Gu that had the same hallucinogenic effect as Gu Ao's Gu Queen was only the Mantuo Gu."

Mandola Gu is a type of plant Gu that is cultivated from mandala flowers.

Fahua Xuanzan once said: "Mandala Hua, this cloud is suitable, and those who see it are happy." ”

The mandala flower is originally transliterated from Sanskrit, and in Buddhism, this flower is related to Buddhism.

In Buddhist scriptures, the mandala flower means suitable, that is, anyone who sees it will feel happy. It contains the spirit of insight into the darkness, transcendent enlightenment, and infinite transformation. A person with this spirit can become a mandala immortal.

However, no matter how highly praised by Buddhism, it is a fact that mandala flowers are highly poisonous and hallucinating.

In Dazhang, mandala flowers are mostly found in the southern Xinjiang region, and there are also wealthy families in the Central Plains who love the beauty of their flowers, and specially ask the traveling merchants to bring back flower seeds, cultivate flowers, and use them for ornamental purposes.

Although flowers are common, only Xuan Shi can cultivate them into Gu.

If you want to cultivate a Mandola Gu, there is a condition, and that is to water fresh blood with vitality every day.

This is something that ordinary people can't do.

Xuan Shi cultivates the Tao, absorbs and transforms the vitality of heaven and earth, and their blood also contains the vitality of the laws of heaven, which is a great supplement for all living creatures.

And for the mandala flower, this is also a necessary condition for becoming a Gu.

"For those who have fallen into the Mantuo Gu, in order to trigger an illusion and trap the soul of the person, they need to be urged by someone nearby, and the method of urging is still by sound."

"When the mandal Gu is urged, there will be a strange fragrance, this is the bed where Xu Hao was lying when he died, you smell it carefully."

Yu Xia and a few people approached to smell it when they heard this, only to feel a faint fragrance in their noses, and at first glance, it was no different from the smell of rouge gouache on those Hualou girls, so they didn't notice anything unusual when they came here before.

But after being reminded by Chen, several people concentrated on identifying these fragrances, and sure enough, they found that under the cover of the smell of rouge gouache, there was a subtle but long fragrance.

This fragrance is quite unique, somewhat similar to the scent of orchids, but the taste is lighter, colder, and has a unique smell that makes people want to stop.

"Stop, you can't smell it anymore."

With Chen's reminder, Yu Xia and the three of them came back to their senses.

Mandala flowers have hallucinogenic effects and also have the toxicity to lure people to addiction.

You won't notice anything different when you hear it, but it's fine. If you smell it intently and carefully discern the smell, it is easy to be attracted by the temptation of the fragrance and indulge in it.

"This kind of taste is also in Xu Hao."

Hearing Chen say this, several people also came back to their senses.

The hut where Xu Hao's coffin was parked was airtight, and they only felt stuffy and smelly before, and they only thought that Xu Hao had died unbearably, and he had been contaminated with the smell of fat powder from the Qinglou, but now that he thought about it, those smells were slightly different from the ordinary smell of fat powder.

It seems that Xu Hao's death is indeed related to Mantuo Gu.

"So what we can't be sure of now is whether the murderer is a Gu master from southern Xinjiang, or a Xuan master who learned witchcraft like Gu Ao and used it to harm people."

Chen's words are quite agreeable, although the mandala flower is produced in southern Xinjiang, but there are also rich families in the Central Plains who will plant it at home because they see the hunting heart, just because the mandala flower is toxic, and the habit is tricky, quite delicate, so there are not many people who cultivate it.

Although the imperial court forbids Gu, it can't help but become something before Gu, if it is forbidden, it can't be banned, just like the cat ghost who caused the disaster of Gu chaos, can it still kill all the cats in the world?

Therefore, forbidden Gu, forbidden has always been Gu masters, Gu poison and Gu arts.

It doesn't matter if a rich family cultivates a mandala flower that can make Gu in their own home.

"The investigation on the Gu Master's infiltration into Dazhang in Wuzhou will not be able to reply until about the next day, and what we are now starting to investigate is who Xu Hao has had physical contact with in this month, and among these people, who is the Xuan Master who participated in the Xuan Master Conference, and who happened to have come into contact with the Mandala Flower."

Chen Shen groaned.

Wuzhou is the checkpoint between Miaojiang and the Central Plains.

Xu Hao's Gu cultivation time is no more than a month, and the Mantuo Gu must be personally sent to the host by the Gu Master, and when the Gu Master is placed, there will be physical contact between the Gu Master and the host.

At the same time, the mandala Gu must be made of live mandala flowers, and it takes seven seven and forty-nine days to become a Gu, and it must be lowered to a living person within seven days after becoming a Gu, otherwise the mandola Gu will die because there is no host to provide nutrients.

"In addition, I will also find someone to investigate how many wealthy families cultivate mandala flowers in the entire Central Plains."
