Bai Xinruo couldn't help but sneer when he heard Hui Idiot say that the Nine Sons Ghost Mother was an existence that all cultivators in the world couldn't fight against, "It's really funny that such a powerful thing can be trapped in a lamp." Get out of the way, I'll burn this lamp, and I'll meet that ghost mother! ”

Hui Idiot has been practicing for hundreds of years, and his mind has been very peaceful, and when he heard such words, he couldn't help but change color on his face, and roared angrily: "If you want to go crazy and find death, you will find a place where no one is to bury yourself, and you want to harm the lives of the monks of my Fangcun Temple, and I will not agree to die!" "It turns out that the Nine Sons Ghost Mother is extremely powerful, once it is released, not to mention that the Fangcun Temple is finished, maybe the entire Binjiang will also be devastated.

Ren Qiuling was extremely nervous in her heart, knowing that if this white heart was very strong, if the idiot said this, she might immediately turn her face and make a move. Unexpectedly, Bai Xinruo turned his face away, and there was a smile on the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, not only was he not angry, but he was a little happy.

Such a reaction, even Ren Qiuling, who is a psychologist, can't see through it, how can others understand? It turned out that Bai Xinruo listened to Hui Idiot yelling at himself, and secretly thought: "This monk looks dumbfounded, but I didn't expect that he was really manly when he yelled at people." She has never been in love, and her heart is warm and soft at this time, but she doesn't understand why.

The wisdom idiot cultivated very deeply, and only a word came out, and his heart immediately regretted it, and he announced the Buddha's name: "Amitabha!" His heart calmed down a little, and he explained: "The Nine Sons Ghost Mother is the most advanced existence in the Hungry Ghost Dao, and her status is equivalent to that of the Yama King in the Hell Dao. According to Buddhist scriptures, in the past, the ghost mother gave birth to 500 children, and stole the children in the city to feed her own children every day. The Buddha took advantage of her outing and hid one of her children. The ghost mother was nowhere to be found, so she begged the Buddha to release her child. The Buddha told her, 'You have 500 children, and you are so sad to lose one of them, and other mothers have only one child, and you snatch them and eat them, how can those mothers grieve and mourn?' 'The ghost mother compared her heart to her heart, stopped doing evil, and later became one of the 20 heavens of Buddhism. ”

Bai Xinruo sighed and said, "It turned out to be a god who knew how to be a woman, and he was really a good god." I'm sorry just now, please forgive me! As he spoke, he bowed to the Nine Sons Ghost Mother Lamp.

Ren Qiuling felt strange and said, "You know the hardships of being a woman, why do you kill so many women?" ”

Bai Xinruo glared and said, "I kill them, naturally I have my reasons!" ”

Hui Idiot heard Bai Xinruo and Ren Qiuling say the word "kill" when they opened and closed their mouths, and they were sullen, so they quickly interrupted the words of the two and said: "The Nine Sons Ghost Mother Lamp has reappeared in the world, you can see it as a curse that is bound to be realized." The one who puts the lamp on the world will definitely make a request to you, and only if you fulfill that request can you escape death. ”

Ren Qiuling said: "Investigate the case! The ghost said that the Copper Serial case must be found out within nine days, or we will all die! ”

Hui Idiot sighed: "The world is unpredictable, and no one dares to guarantee that a case will be found out within nine days. Well, I'll go with you, and if the investigation fails, I'll try to make sure you both live. ”

Ren Qiuling was very moved, looking at what Fang Cun Temple had done recently, Hui Idiot obviously had a more ambitious goal, but in order to ensure that he could survive, he was willing to risk his life. "Actually, you don't have to." Ren Qiuling said excitedly.

"Good! Have courage! Bai Xinruo was very happy to act with Hui Idiot, "True masters! She encouraged.

Hui Idiot was not at all sure that if the Nine Sons Ghost Mother appeared, he could stop her, but he knew that there were some things that he could not help but do: "Time is pressing, let's take a plane to Zitong!" This will buy some time to investigate the case. ”

Ren Qiuling thought about it for a while, and decided to entrust the teacher Lan Jin to test the Nine Sons Ghost Mother Lamp - the local special affairs office couldn't believe it, she preferred to believe the teacher.

She described the matter to Lan Jin on the phone, and Lan Jin sighed and said, "It turns out that the Nine Sons Ghost Mother Lamp has reappeared." You can check the tassel of the person's hair under the lampshade to see if one of the strands of hair is about three centimeters shorter. ”

Ren Qiuling checked it, and it was indeed the case, "Teacher, it's really like this, how do you know?" ”

Lan Jin said: "The first appearance of the Nine Sons Ghost Mother Lamp was ten years ago, which was the peak of the Copper Murderer. At that time, we sampled and tested the Nine Sons Ghost Mother Lamp: it was made about 400 years ago, which is the year when the lamppost lampholder was made. The human hands on the lampposts, the human skins on the lampshades, and the human hair are relatively recent, about two hundred years ago. ”

Ren Qiuling shouted, "How can this be? ”

Lan Jin said: "Yes, the copper murderer has a habit of collecting loot and will cut off some of the victims' organs. And these organs just happened to appear on the Nine Sons Ghost Mother Lamp, you must guess that this lamp was made by the murderer, right? ”

Ren Qiuling did guess so.

Lan Jin told her: "I thought the same way back then. But the murderer of the copper murder, he has no education and cannot make such a fine work of art. And one more important thing—"

Ren Qiuling's eyes lit up, knowing that Lan Jin was extremely wise, and her ideas had always been very effective, "Please speak." ”

Lan Jin said: "Don't go to investigate that case, you can't find out." Now you can eat whatever you want, play whatever you want, and be kind to yourself. Because you have only nine days left to live......"

Ren Qiuling hung up the teacher's phone very rudely, this was the first time she was so rude to Teacher Lan Jin.

The Nine Sons Ghost Mother Lamp was temporarily stored in Fangcun Temple, and Ren Qiuling, Hui Idiot, and Bai Xinruo stepped on the plane to Zitong City together.

The establishment of the copper city is very special, people in the northwest barren mountains to explore the rich copper mines, and later set up a state-owned mining company, the name of Shaanxi Province copper company. With the mining of minerals, the wealth of the copper mining company has been accumulated, and the company has become bigger and bigger, and finally formed a company-based city, with a population of about 400,000 ten years ago (1998). Three-quarters of the people in the city are employees or their families, and one-quarter are other people.

The first case occurred on May 26, 1988, and the last case occurred on February 9, 2002, spanning 14 years. There were nine homicides and nine deaths that the Group found to be committed by the same person on strict evidence. All nine were women, only one of whom was an eight-year-old girl, and the other eight were young women.

All nine of them have one thing in common, that is, they all liked to wear red clothes when they were alive. Another point is that they are all good-looking, and they are all goose egg faces, which are considered the most beautiful face shapes in traditional Chinese aesthetics. The killer is carefully selected for the victim.

The killer will stab the victim wildly in the upper body, leaving an even number of wounds. In six of the nine cases, an even number of wounds were found on the upper body of the body, including: in the first case, the victim had 26 stab wounds to the upper body; In the second case, the victim had 36 stab wounds to his upper body; In the third case, the victim had 16 stab wounds to his upper body; In the fourth case, the victim had eight stab wounds to his upper body; In the sixth case, the victim had 22 stab wounds to his upper body; In the eighth case, the victim suffered 16 stab wounds to his upper body.

Usually the case that makes the most sense to solve a serial murder case is the first one, because the murderer is not so bold yet, he usually moves in a familiar area and kills people he knows.

Back on May 26, 1988, Bai, who was supposed to work in the company, took a leave of absence and returned home early. She hummed a little song in front of the mirror and put on her makeup, because today she was going to pick up her brother from the detention center.

The place where she lives is an ordinary courtyard. The courtyard door was open, and a dark shadow slipped into the courtyard. The black shadow came to Bai's door and listened. Bai was still singing happily in the house.

"Zheng"! The black shadow's right hand shook, and a cold and shining folding knife appeared in his right hand - the kind of knife was very common in the 80s and 90s when Hong Kong and Taiwan tablets were popular, and the handle was made of two movable pieces of iron: when the iron piece at the handle was folded forward, the blade could be hidden in the iron groove of the knife to realize the role of the scabbard; When the iron piece of the tool handle is folded back, it can support the knife page and realize the function of the tool handle. The advantage of this knife is that it is lightweight and easy to carry, making it easy to hide.

Bai admired his young face in the mirror, and after applying makeup, it looked more beautiful. At this moment, she saw in the mirror that the hidden door was slowly opening.

"Who?" She looked back and asked.

The shadow pounced with his knife in hand.

Soon, Bai fell in a pool of blood.

A pair of blood-stained hands picked up an enamel-shelled thermos and poured hot water into a basin that rested on a basin shelf made of solid wood. The thermos was lowered, and several clear blood fingerprints were printed on the handle of the thermos.

The bloody hands tested the temperature of the water, put his hands into the hot water, washed the blood on his hands, and then he picked up Bai's face towel hanging on the crosswood of the basin rack and dried his hands, walked out of the room lightly, and closed the door with his hands.

Bai fell on the bed, staring blankly at the door that was closing. As the door closed, the world darkened. The blood fingerprints on the thermos were clearer and more dazzling.

In the waiting hall of Zitong Airport, two elderly people held a sign made of large pieces of cardboard and wrote: "Welcome Ms. Ren Qiuling!" ”

"You said that there were so many people back then, and so many funds were spent and the case was not solved, can this person named Ren Qiuling solve it?" The shorter old man asked.

The tall old man held up a sign and said as he looked at the crowd, "You know what a fart!" Could the person recommended by Lan Jin be wrong? How else can it be said that the people in your district just don't know anything? You, let's go home and pick up our grandson! ”

The short old man rolled up his sleeves and said, "I can't get used to your companies, how lame they are!" What's so great about you? Isn't it every day that you carry cage birds? ”

The tall old man smashed the card in his hand and punched the short old man.

The short old man obviously had kung fu, and he avoided the tall old man's grasp with a triangular step, and kicked the tall old man's shoulder.

There was a "pop" sound.

The tall old man bullied the other party for not being as strong as himself, and after being hit, he did not retreat but advanced, and a flying pounce overwhelmed the short old man. The two old men were rolling around on the ground, the tall old man had great strength, and the short old man had many tricks. The short old man hit the tall old man's nose with a hammer, and the tall old man's nosebleeds and tears were knocked out at once.

The tall old man pressed above at this time, raised his big fist and was about to give the other party a powerful one, but his cold hand was pulled.

Several airport security guards pulled away two old men, and one of them shouted: "This is the airport, you have to fight outside!" If you dare to make trouble again, we will call the police. ”

The two old men wilted all of a sudden, so they hurried to accompany them. The airport security guard is not good at entanglement with these old men, in case of a heart attack, he will be unlucky, teach a few words to pay attention to etiquette in public or something, see that the attitude of the two is good, and let them go.

The two old men held up the sign again with two big flower faces.
