Chapter 235: The Ghost Eats the Marrow

The occipital bone, known as the mountain bone by doctors, is also known as the jade occipital bone and the posterior occipital bone. Among the human bones, the bones on the skull should be the strongest. Although the occipital bone is not as hard as the frontal bone, it is also the key to protecting the mind, and its strength should not be underestimated.

There are very few people who have been shot in the back of the head and died, but Mr. Peng has never seen anything in a book that can make such a wound to the occipital bone - a round wound the size of a copper coin, and even the flesh and bones are nowhere to be found. Reaching out, the internal wound was as smooth as a mirror, as if it had been delicately polished with fine sandpaper, and it did not look like a trace left by an external chisel at all.

Huzi also stretched his face and held the lamp closer to take a closer look. This wound is too regular, even if you are given a pen, you may not be able to draw it so round if you ask someone to draw it on paper.

"Mr. Peng," Wang said, in a low voice, "but what do you see?" ”

They stole into Yizhuang in the middle of the night, so naturally they couldn't make a noise easily. Although he has already bought off the widower who guards Yizhuang, it is not good to make any noise. After all, privately inspecting the corpse involved in the case is a crime. Wang Chengzuo had the intention to overturn the case for his friend's son, but after all, there was no conclusive evidence, but he only suspected that it was not good to involve Mr. Peng and Huzi and bear the guilt with him.

"It's hard to say...... Mr. Peng frowned, and covered the deceased's hair again, "I have never seen such a killing method, whether it is a demon or a Qimen blade." You're right, such a wound is by no means something that a peasant can make. Indeed, your friend's son has been wronged. ”

"I know all this," Wang Yanzuo sighed, "I've been in this business for most of my life, and I've never seen such an injury." It's just that...... Do you really not know what you did? ”

"Can't think of it. Just guess that the scene must be spectacular, and the brains must have flowed all over the place. Huzi licked his lips. He thought about it like this, and suddenly felt that it was a pity, it should be very delicious.

This thought flashed through him, and Huzi broke out in a cold sweat. Wrong! I'm afraid that my ghost nature is not lost! He still remembers how fierce and cruel he was when he turned into a hungry ghost. After reciting a few verses of the scriptures silently and running the exercises, I suppressed those terrible thoughts in my heart.

"This is also a place of evil." Wang Qizuo took over, "In terms of common sense, it should indeed be a lot of brains...... But now not only has the murder weapon not been found, but even the dead man's brain has not been found. When the body was found, the deceased was lying on his back on the kang with his head hanging over the edge of the kang. Blood flowed all over the ground, but the head was empty. There is no brain left, all gone. ”

Mr. Peng's eyes widened: "What did you say?" Why didn't you say it sooner? This kind of thing, does the yamen handle it as an ordinary case? ”

Wang Yanzuo's face was happy: "Mr. Peng, but what do you think of?" ”

"Maybe......" Huzi's voice hesitated, "This demon is trying to eat people's brains!" ”

"It may not be a demon," Mr. Peng shook his head, "It may also be a living person who has cultivated some evil sect exercises." ”

As soon as he heard this, Wang Yanzuo couldn't help but shudder. He had seen many corpses, but he had never seen anything like a cannibal brain. He has always felt that this kind of thing should be quite far away from Changtu Mansion, and it is a story on the stage of the script. If it's really a demon, it's better to say, after all, there are two really capable Mr. Yin and Yang standing in front of him, and they will definitely be able to come up with a way.

But if it is said that a living man does evil, it is extraordinary. This method is called "harvesting and cutting", and it has been banned by all dynasties. It is clearly written: "Whoever picks up the living and cuts off the person will be put to death, and the property will be cut off to the deceased's house." Although his wife, sons, and family members did not know about it, they were resettled for 2,000 miles. Slash for the Servant. ”

Harvesting and folding do two talks. One is mutilation, which breaks the arms and legs of the originally able-bodied child, or uses some evil method to create a deformity, either carries it out for a show, or puts it on the street to beg for sympathy. The other is Caisheng, which is mostly the evil way of learning the yin and yang lessons, and the sins they have done. There are many methods in this process, and cannibalism is one of them. Most of the victims are women and children, because they are easy to be taken into custody and deceived. Such an act can be said to be full of evil.

"And what kind of blade and what tool does this man use?" Wang Cheng has been conducting an autopsy for many years, and he does not agree with Mr. Peng's statement, "This wound is smooth and beyond the reach of human beings." Even if it was a gunβ€”not to mention whether there was such a large projectileβ€”the surrounding bones should have been cracked, and it would never have been possible to that extent. ”

"You have a point." Mr. Peng pondered for a moment, and then put his hand into the wound of the deceased, "To this extent, it should indeed be created by some evil magic. But what is it? I couldn't detect a trace of yin. Huzi, what can you see? ”

Huzi shook his head: "I can't see it, I can't see anything." In this way, there are still a lot of demons and monsters who eat human brains. There are clear winds, yakshas, and spirits, and even some youkai who have cultivated evil methods may also do this kind of thing. Just what kind of means...... Talent, to make such a wound? ”

Mr. Peng smiled bitterly: "Although we often deal with these things day and night, we are not as clear as they know. What's the use of you and I guessing here? It's better to ask someone to ask about it. ”

Huzi patted his head: "Yes, why didn't I think of it?" The immortal families on Zhao Yueyue's hall are now idle, let's get the moon first near the water, find them to recognize them, and see what kind of demons and monsters dare to commit such a taboo! ”

As soon as he said it, Huzi passed a piece of yellow paper, wrote an invitation on it, raised his hand and lit it, and summoned it three times. A gust of wind blew, and Hu Ghost Immortal Hu Chuanwen appeared. As soon as he appeared, Hu Chuanwen said a shallow blessing to the father and son: "Xiaoxian Hu Chuanwen, I have seen Mr. Peng and my uncle. ”

When she said "I've met Mr. Peng", her tone was still very deferential, and when she said "I've seen my uncle", she had a somewhat ridiculous tone.

Wang Chengzuo said that it was the second time he saw Hu Chuanwen, and the last time was when he was in the house of Orion, when he summoned the soul of his widow to avenge him. It's just that Hu Chuanwen at that time was still as good as Tian Lihu's appearance, but now it seems that he is already a flamboyant female ghost. Wang Qizuo couldn't help but be secretly shocked, whether the methods of the Dao door can be channeled through the gods is unknown, but it is already a real thing to get close to ghosts.

Now that he is doing business, Huzi is not in the mood to joke with Hu Chuanwen, and his speech is straight to the point: "Hu Daxian, please come over, there is nothing else, I really encountered some difficulties." My father and I couldn't recognize the wound on this dead body, and I thought, I'd better ask you to come and see it. ”

Hu Chuanwen was slightly positive, and she naturally knew the methods of Mr. Peng and Huzi. Not to mention the level of behavior, Mr. Peng is well-informed and has a strong memory, and she has really experienced it since they got along these days. Even Mr. Peng couldn't recognize who the demon did it, so she couldn't help but be unconcerned.

"Let me see." Hu Chuanwen stepped forward, and Huzi also ruffled the dead man's hair. After looking at it for a moment, Hu Chuanwen also shook his head: "There is no demonic energy on this, there is no yin energy, it seems to be done by mortals." This wound ...... I don't recognize it. ”

Huzi and Mr. Peng glanced at each other, both a little frightened. Even an immortal family can say such a thing, could it be that he is really some kind of evil person, and he can't cut it!

"However......" Hu Chuanwen changed his words, "my days of cultivation are short, and I have little knowledge. I can't recognize it, but the other immortals in my hall may recognize it. ”

"Oh?" Mr. Peng nodded, "Then I'll bother the Immortal Family." ”

Hu Chuanwen didn't speak, but his figure was a little erratic. However, after half a cup of tea, a giant python swam into Yizhuang, which frightened Wang Yanzuo and quickly hid behind Mr. Peng and the others. The python swam up to the corpse and transformed into an old man more than six feet tall.

The old man arched his hand: "I heard that Mr. Peng and my sister-in-law have encountered a dilemma, and a certain person has come to help." ”

Hu Chuanwen introduced: "This is an old immortal in my hall, his name is Chang Nian, he has a wide range of knowledge, maybe he knows." ”

The father and son returned the salute, and then Mr. Peng stretched out his hand and pointed: "I'm tired of Chang Daxian, you go forward to take a look." ”

This Chang Daxian's eyes widened, revealing a pair of snake pupils, cold light, staring at the window for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Mr. Peng, little aunt...... I'm a little unsure about this wound. But nine times out of ten, I've already guessed what it was for. ”

"Who is the demon?" Huzi hurriedly asked.

Chang Chunian smiled bitterly: "Tell it, a certain family is afraid that you will not believe it." I guess...... It's a ghost! ”

"Ghosts?" Mr. Peng and Huzi all gasped!

It is recorded that the ghost is a kind of monster that looks like both a sheep and a pig, and hides underground to sneak up on passers-by and eat people's brains. In the story, it is said that someone dug up this goblin that looked like a sheep and a pig from the ground, and tied it up to give it to Qin Mugong. On the way, I met two children. One of the children said, "This thing's name is Wo, and if you want to kill it, use the head of a branch." When the ghost heard this, he was indignant, and hurriedly said, "Those two children are called Chen Bao, and the male can dominate the world, and the female can dominate the princes." So the man went and caught the two children, and they turned into pheasants and flew away.

The father and son were amazed because this thing had previously only existed in myths and legends. No one has ever seen it with their own eyes, and there are some folk accounts, all of which are plausible. So, they didn't think about these things at all, thinking it was just some nonsense.

Why did it suddenly pop up?
