Text Chapter 283 Clues
"Then what happened to Hu Baolai after he connected with you, why did he die and you ......" Shen Wei looked at the man curled up in the shadows, and did not continue to speak.
What happened...... The man recalled the scene at that time, and now he thinks about it, he is still in a cold sweat.
Seeing that the man was silent after Shen Wei's question, Gu Yixuan sighed lightly and said to him, "Brother Tai, what did you think?"
After a while, Fang heard the response: "Hehe, that's it, anyway, I don't need to consider the opinions of others, so I just let you adults see it." Then, with a sound of rattling, the man stood up with difficulty with the broken stick, and walked out slowly.
At this time, the sky was already a little white, and a faint light hit the man's face, which made everyone who saw him look shocked.
"This ......" This human figure is skinny, dry as firewood, sallow complexion, and the original eyes are actually two blood holes, in which the rotten flesh has not been removed, and some meridians can still be seen.
Lin Feng looked at the position of his eyes and remembered that in the Criminal Department, the plate was covered with silk cloth and smashed eyes.
"Brother Gu. Lin Feng looked at Gu Yixuan, the two looked at each other, and knew a little in his heart, it seemed that the smashed eyeballs belonged to this person.
"Hehe, my appearance, but it scared you?" The man laughed at himself, his body was very weak because he had not eaten rice for a few days, and not long after he stood up, his legs began to tremble, and he had no choice but to sit down again.
"Don't blame the adults, the villain really hasn't eaten recently, and now he really has no strength. At this time, Luo Linxuan took out an oil-paper bag from his arms and handed it to the man, this was the osmanthus cake that was bought for Shizuka Sakano, and now seeing the appearance of this person, Luo Linxuan gave him this food, but when he went back, he bought a pack with Shizuka.
The man fumbled and took the oiled paper bag, put it under his nose and smelled it, it was a sweet smell. Hungry in his stomach, he hurriedly opened the oiled paper package, touched the osmanthus cake and stuffed it into his mouth.
Looking at his gobbling appearance, he was really hungry. Gu Yixuan looked around, around this ruined temple, there were either weeds and tall trees, or jackals and beasts, plus some ghosts and ghosts, this person had been here for a few days, but it was really difficult for him.
After eating a bag of osmanthus cake, the man wiped his mouth unsatisfied, his body seemed to have regained some strength, and he knelt and kowtowed to everyone present to thank him: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
Shen Wei squatted down, stretched out his hand to help him up, and then said to him: "No need to thank you, you just need to answer Shen's question truthfully." You haven't answered the question yet. ”
The man stood up with Shen Wei's hand, and after a moment of silence, he replied, "Lord Shen, when you came to this forest, did you encounter any strange and strange things?"
Shen Wei nodded: "I was attacked by the White Bone Army." "The scene of Fang Cai fighting with millions of white bone troops is still vivid.
The man's face was pale, and he seemed to be particularly surprised: "White Bone Army?"
"You seem to be surprised, just now you asked us if we had encountered strange and strange things, and Gu thought that what you said was about the White Bone Army. Gu Yixuan saw the change in the person's expression in his eyes, and he was a little suspicious in his heart. Is there anything else to the strange thing this man is talking about?
I saw that the man shook his head, and then replied: "What the villain said is not the matter of the White Bone Army, but the strange Jade Buddha." ”
It was said that the jade Buddha statue. Gu Yixuan and Shen Wei glanced at each other, their faces were solemn, and they looked at the man.
"That jade Buddha, what's so weird?" the man carefully recalled the original scene, and then told Gu Yixuan and the others: "The jade Buddha statue was obtained by the villain with a lot of effort, and Hu Bao said that it was to be dedicated to a certain son of the family, so the villain and he were extra careful when escorting this Buddha statue." It is specially wrapped separately from other goods. Who knows, when the delivery was made, it was a group of robbers who wanted to rob it! In this forest, Hu Baolai and I have never been robbers here for so many years, but this time it was unlucky, and it happened to happen. ”
Robbery? Shen Wei raised his eyebrows, this place is located deep in the woods, and people don't often come here on weekdays, what kind of thieves and robbers would choose to rob here? Gu Yixuan also thought the same, and the two of them were a little skeptical of the words in this person's mouth. But now they did not interrupt the man's speech, waiting for him to finish speaking.
Hearing that no one around spoke, the man continued Fang Cai's words and continued: "The group of people snatched some goods, and the jade Buddha was not taken because it was wrapped separately. Later, those people saw that the wrench in Hu Baolai's hand was worth a fortune, so they moved their minds to snatch it, it was Hu Baolai's heirloom, how could it be easily given to it. Then the man held the wrench tightly in his palm, and he would not hand it over even if he died. Hu Baolai's actions angered those people, and they swung their knives and slashed at Hu Baolai! Who knew that at the last moment, the Jade Buddha suddenly emitted a faint green light, blocking the knives of those people, not to mention, and it would also emit a ghostly green fire, burning those people clean! Hu Baolai and I saw that the Jade Buddha was very evil, so they threw it on the ground, trying to escape from this forest, but the two of us were like encountering a ghost hitting the wall! No matter how we escaped, we would eventually return to the place where the Jade Buddha was. ”
Hearing this, Lin Feng felt a little suspenseful, and his scalp also became a little numb.
"I have goosebumps when you say this. Lin Feng rubbed his arm and sighed, fortunately, he didn't bring the Jade Buddha over this time.
"Hehe, my lord, this is not yet the most chilling time. The man smiled bitterly and continued: "Later, Hu Baolai and I both felt that it was the problem of the Jade Buddha, so we looked left and right for a long time, and we couldn't find anything suspicious. At the moment when the two of us put down the Jade Buddha again, I saw with my own eyes that the face of the Jade Buddha suddenly changed, and it was extremely vicious! Then, a burst of blood light appeared in front of my eyes! There was a sharp pain in both eyes, and I still seem to be able to hear it, the sound of the eyeballs being gouged out, and the pain of the meridians being torn apart!"
When Shen Wei heard this, he was a little touched in his heart, and a trace of sympathy appeared for the person in front of him.
Gu Yixuan's face did not change, still maintaining Fang Cai's expression, and then asked, "You were gouged out of your eyes by the Jade Buddha, what about Hu Baolai?"
"Hu Baolai, hmph! That rat saw that the Jade Buddha gouged out my eyes, so he left me and ran away on his own, I think he was afraid that this Jade Buddha would also attack him!" At that time, Hu Baolai's roar in his ear was also very clear.
"In other words, you don't know what happened to Hu Baolai after that?" After listening to Gu Yixuanzhi's question, the man nodded: "Yes, that Hu Baolai ran away while I was seriously injured, and I don't know if he ran out of this wood, and I don't know what happened to him after that." But when I heard Lord Fang Cai say that you came for Hu Baolai's corpse, I realized that he didn't end up well, hahahaha...... "When you are seriously injured, people who abandon themselves will naturally not end well!"
"Brother Gu, what are you thinking?" Lin Feng saw Gu Yixuan looking at the person in front of him thoughtfully, touched his shoulder, and asked him. This kid had what he thought at a glance, Lin Feng muttered secretly in his heart, followed his eyes, and set his eyes on the person in front of him who had lost both eyes.
"After asking so much, I still don't know your name and surname, can you tell us, what is your surname?" Luo Linxuan held the Qinglin Sword in his chest, looked down at the man, and asked out loud.
The man smiled and thought for a moment, and then answered Luo Linxuan's question: "The villain's name is Liu Wu." ”
Liu Wu... Shen Wei heard it a little familiar, carefully searched in his mind, and the information about Liu Wu gradually came to mind, his expression was grim, and he said: "You, is the Liu Wu who digs people's graves and survives by collecting other people's coffins to accompany the burial?" Later, when a family was buried in a funeral, he was broken again, and his dirty act of digging people's graves to collect money made people know that he did not steal the money of the living, but turned to steal the burial goods of the dead.
Liu Wu nodded: "Lord Shen is right, villain, it is the notorious and notorious Liu Wu." "If he weren't a gravedigger, how would he provide Hu Baolai with a steady stream of jade resources?
"Brother Liu, the tombs you dug are all eunuchs and wealthy businessmen?" The funeral goods of the rich and noble have always been priceless, and since Liu Wu was able to provide Hu Baolai with rare jade, he must have chosen the graves of these people to dig. Gu Yixuan thought to himself, if he said this, the Jade Buddha was also dug up from the tomb of a wealthy official and eunuch, if he could find the source of the Jade Buddha, he might be able to find out who the resentful spirit hidden in it was. He had a hunch that the resentful spirit in this Jade Buddha would definitely be able to involve a major matter.
When Liu Wu heard Gu Yixuan's words, he put away his laughter, and pointed a pair of blood holes in Gu Yixuan's direction: "This adult is really very keen." The villain did dig a lot of civilian graves before, but found that their burial goods, either there are none, or some worthless objects, can not let the villain survive at all, and then met a colleague, he told the villain, digging the grave, to dig the graves of those big families, so that there will be oil and water, in order to make a fortune. So the villain specially picked the graves of those rich and noble families to dig, and sure enough, there were all kinds of gold and silver treasures. ”
"Aren't you afraid of damaging yin virtue by doing this?" Shen Wei looked at him, shook his head, and said sternly. Digging up people's graves and making the dead unable to be at peace is a crime! Shen Wei's disdain and disgust for Liu Wu deepened.
"Adult, the villain is not like you, you can get fame by dancing and writing. The villain was born in a scoundrel's family, grew up at the bottom of the market, and learned from elementary school that he was stealing chickens and dogs. If you want to live comfortably, you have to do this. Liu Wu laughed at himself, regardless of what everyone present thought, and then said: "Besides, those dead people can't use these things in the yang world at all, so it's better to use them to help us poor people." He said it calmly, but these words were especially unpleasant to the ears of the four people.
Although Gu Yixuan also despised Liu Wu, collecting clues to solve the case was the key at the moment, so he put aside his dislike of Liu Wu for the time being, and asked calmly: "The Jade Buddha, where did you get it?"
But seeing Liu Wu shook his head: "My lord, the Jade Buddha is not the finished product dug by the villain, the villain is just responsible for handing over the jade raw materials for making the Jade Buddha to Hu Baolai, as for how the Jade Buddha is made and where it is made, I'm afraid only Hu Baolai knows." "So the clue is broken again... Gu Yixuan fell into deep thought, Hu Baolai was dead, and he originally thought that he would be able to know the slightest bit of news if he found this Liu Wu, but he asked and asked, and the clue went back to Hu Baolai's place, becoming a dead loop.
Shen Wei was also worried, seeing that there was progress, and now he put it on hold again.
Click. Just as the two were pondering, a slight noise came from outside the ruined temple. Liu Wu heard the familiar sound, and suddenly trembled, and retreated back again and again, the broken wooden stick in his hand blocked in front of him, and he looked panicked.
Seeing this, Gu Yixuan and the others were also vigilant, and nodded to Luo Linxuan, only to see that in an instant, Luo Linxuan flew out, and the Qinglin sword came out of its sheath and swung it in the direction where the sound came!
After a long time, but there was no response at all, and after waiting for half a stick of incense, Luo Linxuan came back, pulled Gu Yixuan up and said: "Senior Brother Gu, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's bring this person back first, and it is not too late to come back when it is dawn." ”
What the hell is going on?, Luo Linxuan's expression looked anxious. Gu Yixuan looked out, then turned to look at Liu Wu, who was in a panic, and nodded: "Just listen to Senior Brother Luo, Lord Shen, Brother Lin, let's go." ”
After that, Lin Feng stepped forward and put Gu Yixuan on his body again, Luo Linxuan leaned over and carried Liu Wu up, and several people quickly left the broken temple.
Half an hour later, the ruined temple suddenly collapsed, and a huge black shadow fell from the top of the temple, the corners of the mouth were cracked, the eyes were green, and the pitch-black body merged with the night. He kept knocking on the place where Gu Yixuan and the others were, and he didn't stop until he smashed a pit a few meters deep. If Gu Yixuan and the others had left later, I am afraid that they would have already become the food of this strange person's mouth.
At this time, Gu Yixuan and the others had already left the woods, and they would be able to return to the Criminal Department soon, and suddenly, the power of the black witch in his body had consumed his physical strength very much, and he really couldn't hold it anymore, his eyes were slightly closed, and he fainted, so frightened that Lin Feng hurriedly stopped and looked at him anxiously: "Brother Gu?"
Luo Linxuan also came to him, held up his wrist to explore with his true qi, and then put down his hand and said, "Senior Brother Gu fainted for the time being. ”
Seeing this, Shen Wei said to Luo Linxuan: "Since Shenwu Jun is in poor health, then hand over this Liu Wu to Shen and bring him back to the Criminal Department, General Lin Shao, Xuan Qingjun, the two of you quickly take Shenwu Jun back to Shenbing Pavilion to heal." ”
Shen Weizhi's suggestion was immediately adopted by the two, and Luo Linxuan handed over Liu Wu on his shoulders to Shen Wei, and then nodded lightly to him and saluted: "There is Lord Lao Shen." The words fell, and in the blink of an eye, he and Lin Feng rushed towards the Divine Weapon Pavilion with Gu Yixuan.
