Lin Boqin repeatedly checked the confession left by Chiang.

He always felt that he was missing something very important.

The five elements of the prayer wheel, the eight characters of each child's birthdate, as well as the appearance of leprosy wolves, Tibetan tantras, physical pain, and Lu Hua's strange fear of sin and suicide. The rumor of the lung-eating dog comes from a Tibetan monk, what is the connection...... Lin Boqin thought of the song that was widely circulated in Wangzhou.

"Lung-eating dogs eat lung-dogs, eat people's hearts and lungs and eat people's hands, no one can catch it, it will fly away with wings."

It is impossible for a dog to grow wings.

Jiang's hands are sick, which corresponds to the lung-eating dog's eating human hands; And Lu Hua is born with heart disease, which also corresponds to lung eating dogs.

And what about the lungs?

Is it possible to guess that the person who manipulated him behind the scenes has bad lungs? And he killed the child, in fact, just to take the lungs to make five manna medicine?

That's not right...... If this person wants to take his lungs, why bother to go to Jiang and Lu Hua to cooperate. He is afraid that it is more convenient for him to commit the crime alone, and he will not show his feet.

Lin Boqin paced back and forth in the room, never figuring out the joints.

"Peizhi, Su Yu just came to report that a little girl named Xie Tongtong is missing!" At this time, Gu Jingtong came to the back hall with Su Yufeng. Su Yu was about to cry, and he looked at Lin Boqin longingly: "Lord Lin, save Tongtong, she, she may be eaten by the lung-eating dog!" ”

Xie Tongtong?

This name Lin Boqin heard Chu Cheng say that he and Su Yu have been playing very well recently.

She looks like a little girl of about 10 years old.

He frowned and asked, "Su Yu, do you know Xie Tongtong's birthday?" ”

Su Yu was stunned for a moment, nodded, and only said: "She is the same age as me, but her birthday is on July 7, when was she born...... I do not know. ”

Gu Jingtong still had the leisure to joke with him at this time: "It turns out that Xie Tongtong is half a year older than you?" ”

Su Yu's face turned slightly red, and he said stiffly: "But I'm more mature than her...... She always called me my brother. ”

"Okay, the older woman will take care of people."

Su Yu's face was hot by Gu Jingtong's shame, and he understood why Chu Cheng always said that Gu Xiancheng hated it.

Although I don't know Xie Tongtong's specific birthday, Su Yu is ten years old, that is to say, Xie Tongtong was born in the thirteenth year of Jianwu, that year was a dog, and in July, corresponding to the five elements, it should be gold.

Lin Boqin calculated intently, and his face changed slightly.

Obviously, the people who practice tantric methods behind the scenes have started committing crimes again.

But the murderer is not Lu Hua, not Jiang, even if he is not a person who is known to the victim's family, he must know these people alone.

Except for the relatives of the deceased, who will know the birth date of the deceased?

Lin Boqin's deep gaze fell on the five-element prayer wheel, and under the prayer wheel was the corpse of the murdered child...... He was stunned for a moment, and his mouth suddenly opened.

"It's the stable woman who delivered the baby!"

"What?" Gu Jingtong hadn't reacted yet.

Lin Boqin's face was like frost, and he ordered as he walked outside: "Quickly mobilize people and horses to go to Fushou Street to arrest Hong Po!" ”

When Hu Yu and Yang La heard the news, they were still a little stunned.

Hu Yu even quickly followed Lin Boqin and explained clumsily: "My lord, could it be a mistake?" There are a lot of stable women in Qingyuan County who are responsible for delivering babies, why is it Hong Po? ”

Yang La also nodded again and again: "Yes, Hong Po is too old, she walks tremblingly." ”

Lin Boqin was unmoved.

His face was serious, and he said, "Just because she has difficulty moving, she wants to find a chess piece to use." She wooed Lu Hua, and then Lu Hua wooed the Jiang family to achieve her goal. ”

"But...... But she can't even tell the difference between me and Yang La! Hu Yu pointed at Yang La.

"She may have deliberately confused and disturbed our thoughts."

Lin Boqin firmly believes in his point of view, "Don't forget, when investigating the case of Li Zhongyi and Su Mei's dispute, Hong Po came to the county office. During this time, she coughed all the time, indicating that she either had a problem with her throat or lungs. But she didn't speak hoarsely, and that could only be the latter. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Boqin's tone paused slightly, and he said the most important point: "And, she said a word at that time. She said that she had delivered 107 children by hand, and she remembered all the names and birthdays of those children clearly. ”

When he said this, Yang La and Hu Yu both remembered it.

The two of them didn't ask anymore, but directly led the horse, took the knife on their shoulders, and rushed to Hong Po's house.

Unexpectedly, everyone arrived, and the door of Hong Po's house had been kicked open by a loudspeaker......

***

Chu Cheng and Xie Luoying fortunately came in time.

found Hong Po in the back room who was about to commit murder to Xie Tongtong.

Because Hong Po was unable to move, she stripped Xie Tongtong of her daze and laid her flat on a greasy and dirty table, and she hadn't started yet.

The two of them were four feet away from her, and they didn't dare to rush forward.

"Don't come!" Hong Po held a sharp knife used to kill pigs in her hand and aimed it at Xie Tongtong's abdomen.

Xie Luoying was so frightened that she took two steps back, her eyes were red, and she exclaimed, "Don't hurt her!" ”

Chu Cheng was quite calm, she was thinking about how to not expose her martial arts under Xie Luoying's nose and successfully rescue Xie Tongtong.

She eased her emotions, pretended not to understand, and asked softly, "Hong Po, what are you doing here?" You can't just kick your door with Tongtong last time, right? Well, if you're really angry, stab me twice, don't hurt the child. ”

Hong Po glanced at her coldly.

By this time the twilight had fallen, and the light in the room was dim, except for the sharp knife.

Although she was hunched up, her wrinkled face and old eyes were not as amiable as usual, but gloomy, like hell gazing at the evil ghosts of the world.

Hong Po's white hair hung down next to her eyes, and she looked particularly gloomy.

She said: "I don't want you, I want the child to ......" The matter has come to this point, she doesn't have to hide it, she waved her hands wildly, raised her head and shouted, "Only by killing her can I be cured!" Keep me from getting old! Let me live forever! ”

Xie Luoying also vaguely understood that the so-called "lung-eating dog" was actually the ghost of Hong Po!

The children who died, all had something to do with her.

Xie Luoying's hands were trembling, but she covered her mouth and didn't dare to speak, for fear of angering Hong Po and killing her only sister.

Chu Cheng gave Xie Luoying a look and signaled not to panic.

She tried her best to squeeze out a smile on Hong Po and said, "Hong Po, I know that you are not in good health, so you will take medicine if you are not in good health, what is the use of you killing people?" ”

Hong Po's hands were like dead tree bark, she held a knife in one hand, and rubbed the other hand on Xie Tongtong's smooth and tender skin, her tone trembled and crazy: "The death of Er won my life, and there is no Amitabha in the south to do the night of Amitabha, and the night of the earth is the night of Amitabha, and the night of the earth is the ...... of Amitabha."

The terrifying Sanskrit sound echoes in the dimly lit room like a soul seeking life.

Xie Luoying only felt chills all over her body, her hairs stood up, and she asked Chu Cheng in a low voice: "Siniang, what are she, what are she talking about?" ”

"Reciting sutras and the like......

Chu Ji thought that Emperor Taizu was to seek immortality, and he practiced Tibetan Tantra.

Hong Po should be the same.

Xie Luoying interrupted Hong Po's babbling chanting and said loudly: "Hong Po! You stop first! Something's coming at me! ”

Hong Po was unmoved and continued to chant.

At this time, Chu Cheng thought of something, and she hurriedly said: "By the way, in fact, I forgot to tell you one thing, the little girl you are going to kill, she was not born in the Year of the Dog, and the Five Elements are not golden." ”

Hong Po's voice chanting sutras stopped abruptly.

However, after only a moment, she sneered suspiciously: "You don't want to lie to me!" I personally delivered this girl back then, and I will never forget her birthday. ”

Hong Po raised her hand and stroked Xie Tongtong's closed eyes: "戌狗, July, 7th, 戌時...... The five elements belong to gold, there is no confusion, and it is clean. She muttered, "Her blood is the best medicine, and her lungs are the best material for making five nectar." If Lu Hua doesn't die, her heart can be plucked, and she can also cook soup for Lu Hua to drink......"

"Don't say it!"

Xie Luoying thought of those children who died tragically, and faintly gaged.

Chu Cheng deliberately diverted the topic and mediated with Hong Po: "Lu Hua...... Lu Hua: What does he have to do with you? Why would he help you kill someone? Did you poison him? ”

"Girl, you have too many questions." Hong Po glanced at her coldly.

Hong Po is very shrewd, she knows that this is Chu Hui's delaying tactic, she is not fooled at all, and pulls the corners of her mouth full of wrinkles: "I won't waste words with you, since you two are looking for a dead end, let's go and serve Master Vajra together!" ”

Xie Luoying was shocked when she heard this, she hadn't reacted yet, and suddenly felt that there was a fishy wind on her side.

She subconsciously turned her head to look, but saw that in the corner of the dim room, a faint blue light slowly walked out of one eye...... Wolf?

A wolf covered in sores and mottled hair!

The wolf with leprosy does not look mighty, but very ruthless. It seemed to listen to Hong Po's orders, raised its neck and roared twice, and then like an arrow from the string, it rushed to the nearest Xie Luoying-

"Be careful!"

Before Chu Ji could make a move, she heard a sword breaking through the wind behind her, and she hurriedly dodged to avoid it, but it was a man in black who came up with a sword.

"Brother Xiao!"

Chu Cheng was extremely pleasantly surprised.

The bronze long sword split the sky like a rainbow light, and in the next second, it cut the leprosy wolf into two pieces, and blood splashed Xie Luoying's face all over his body.

Xiao Lu helped the frightened Xie Luoying up, and said in a deep voice of concern: "Girl, are you okay?" ”

Maybe it was wolf blood stained on his face, and Xie Luoying's skin was a little hot. She wiped the blood stains on her face in a panic and shook her head: "Thank you, Daxia, I'm fine...... Please save my sister! ”

When Hong Po saw that the wolf was dead, she let out a wail: "My wolf! How dare you kill my wolves...... I want you to be buried with me! She raised her hand high, and she was about to pierce Xie Tongtong's henchman.

With Xiao Xuan here, Chu Cheng doesn't have to make a move.

She stood on one side, watching from the wall, seeing that Hong Po was about to break the net, between the lightning and flint, Xiao Su had already taken off the long sword, only to hear a "poof" sound, and cut off Hong Po's wrist holding the knife!

Hong Po screamed, her rickety body stood unsteadily, and she fell to the ground.

Xie Luoying hurriedly put on Xie Tongtong's clothes, held them in her arms, and gently shook her: "Tongtong? Tongtong? ”

Xiao Xuan walked over, probed Xie Tongtong's snort, and comforted her: "She's fine, it's just that she was drugged, and she will wake up naturally after a while." ”

Xie Luoying glanced at him and lowered her head a little embarrassed: "...... Thank you. ”

She was about to open her mouth to ask Xiao Xu's name, but at this moment, the sound of horses' hooves at the door was trampling, and the fire was flourishing, but it was Hu Yu and Yang La who both drew their swords and rushed in with a group of officials.
