Chapter 65: The Black Demon Talisman
Wen Qingshan was slightly stunned, and immediately turned his head and asked, "Then where is the plastic bag containing the corpse?" ”
Li Shaobing replied: "I have already taken it for inspection to see if I can find clues such as fingerprints on the bag." ”
"Do you know what else is in the bag?" Wen Qingshan asked.
Li Shaobing shook his head: "I was at the scene at the time, and nothing was found in that bag except for Niu Shaohua's body. ”
Listening to what Li Shaobing said, Wen Qingshan showed a look of disappointment on his face, who knew that Li Shaobing said again: "However, that plastic bag is a little special." ”
Wen Qingshan hurriedly asked, "What's so special?" ”
Li Shaobing said: "On the surface, the plastic bag looks no different from an ordinary black garbage bag, but in fact it is much thicker, completely opaque, and it seems to have a sandwich to the touch." ”
"Mezzanine!?" Wen Qingshan pondered for a moment, raised his head and said to Li Shaobing: "This plastic bag may be the key evidence, you let them keep it, it is best to cut it open to see what is in the mezzanine." ”
"Good! I'll tell them! Li Shaobing said, and immediately took out his mobile phone and walked to the side to make a call. Wen Qingshan led me and Niu Fat Man to check around the cordon.
Because there was garbage everywhere, there was a foul smell, and I really couldn't understand what Wen Qingshan was looking at, and I couldn't help but regret a little in my heart, I really shouldn't have come with him.
Wen Qingshan seemed to see my thoughts, and while continuing to check, he explained: "Although this is not the first scene of the crime, it is the place where the body was found. ”
I looked at the garbage all over the ground and thought to myself: what if the murderer really dropped something, there is garbage everywhere, and the ghost knows what kind of thing the murderer dropped!
I was thinking about it, but suddenly I noticed that next to the fat man's feet, there was something familiar, it was actually a paper charm drawn on black paper! It seemed that it was almost exactly the same as the black paper talisman I had seen in the Loess Ridge Tomb to subdue the bloody corpse, I hurriedly walked over and picked up the black paper talisman, and the fat man saw this and asked curiously, "Boss, what is this?" ”
"It's a talisman!" I hurriedly shouted to Wen Qingshan: "Boss Wen, come and take a look!" ”
Wen Qingshan walked over, and when he saw the black talisman in my hand, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he took the talisman over, and said in surprise: "Could this be the black demon talisman?" ”
I hurriedly asked, "What is the Black Demon Talisman?" ”
Wen Qingshan said: "It is said to be the unique talisman of the Black Demon Sect, but it is also the first time I have seen it, and I can't be sure, but it is indeed very similar to the Black Demon Talisman described in the book. ”
"The Black Demon Cult?" I was completely shocked, how could the more I listened to it, the more it looked like a martial arts novel, "Boss Wen, you ...... You're not fooling me, are you? ”
Wen Qingshan said with a smile: "Hehe, I have only seen the record of the Black Demon Sect in the allusions, it is said to be a mysterious organization that arose in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, this organization cultivates a very unique Qimen evil art, called Xuan Ming Ghost Magic, the person who created this set of evil arts, was originally a Maoshan Taoist priest, this person is extremely talented, if it is a single cultivation, among the brothers of the same generation, there is no one who is unsurpassed, but because of his improper heart, he secretly practiced evil arts, and after being discovered by his master, he abolished his eight veins of the strange scriptures and drove him out of the master. Later, I don't know where he learned a set of evil arts, and not only miraculously recovered his strength, but also greatly increased his cultivation. He fused the evil art with the Maoshan Yin and Yang Technique, and created the Xuanming Ghost Technique. ”
"The sect in the middle of the Ming Dynasty will not continue to this day."
"That's not necessarily, although the Black Demon Sect arose in the Ming Dynasty, but it still has a great influence during the Qing Dynasty, it is said that the death of Emperor Yongzheng is related to it, to the Republic of China, there are rumors that the Black Demon Sect and the Japanese Black Dragon Society colluded to kill Chinese compatriots, after liberation, although I have not heard of rumors about this organization. But that doesn't necessarily mean it's dead. When Wen Qingshan said this, he suddenly changed his words, frowned and said, "If the person who killed Niu Shaohua and took away the Book of Luban is really a member of the Black Demon Sect, then what is the purpose of his doing this?" ”
I hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I've seen this kind of rune paper before. ”
When Wen Qingshan heard this, he immediately turned his head and asked, "Where have you seen it?" ”
I told Wen Qingshan what happened in the ancient tomb of Loess Ridge, and after Wen Qingshan listened, a surprised expression appeared on his face: "I didn't expect that the Cultural Relics Bureau has organized a survey of this ancient tomb, so have you entered the main tomb?" ”
I nodded, "Inside." ”
He hurriedly asked, "So, have you seen a black soul sarcophagus?" ”
I was a little surprised: "Boss Wen, how do you know?" ”
"So, there's really a soul sarcophagus in there?" Wen Qingshan looked a little excited.
"There is indeed a black coffin, which my uncle said was made of soul stones. But how do you know? ”
Wen Qingshan said the reason: "There are ancient records that during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, someone quarried an incomparably huge natural soul stone in Mount Tai, and dedicated this soul stone to the Jiajing Emperor as a treasure, and the Jiajing Emperor ordered the warlock master Shao Yuanjie to use this soul stone as a material to create a soul sarcophagus, the soul sarcophagus has not yet been built, but Shao Yuanjie died, after his death, the unfinished soul sarcophagus is missing, I have always suspected that Shao Yuanjie himself used the soul sarcophagus. I didn't expect it to be like this! ”
"Isn't there anything special about a coffin made of soul stones?" I asked curiously.
Wen Qingshan said: "The soul stone, also known as the soul jade, contains a very peculiar aura, and the longevity coffin made of the soul stone can isolate yin and yang, so as to seal the soul in it, so the cultivators believe that if they are buried in the soul sarcophagus after death, the yin soul can continue to cultivate, and as long as it takes time, it can become an immortal." However, the soul stone is hard and brittle, and it is difficult to make it into a longevity coffin. Therefore, there were also opinions in the past that Shao Yuanjie failed to build the soul sarcophagus and accidentally destroyed the rare soul stone, fearing that he would be held accountable by Emperor Jiajing, so he committed suicide in fear of crime. ”
"I see! In this way, Shao Yuanjie is planning to hide from Emperor Jiajing and use this soul sarcophagus to continue cultivating! ”
Wen Qingshan nodded, he pondered for a moment, and then said, "As far as I can see, the real purpose of that group of tomb robbers entering the ancient tomb is probably the soul sarcophagus!" Moreover, if the tomb robbers and the person who took the "Book of Luban" are really the same group, then maybe their purpose of stealing the "Book of Luban" is also related to that ancient tomb. ”
"Something to do with that tomb? Could it be that the "Book of Luban" still teaches them how to rob tombs? ”
"Not really! However, it is said that the "Book of Luban" is the first strange book to integrate feng shui mystics into architecture, and according to what you said, the ancient tomb also incorporates very subtle feng shui mysticism, presumably because those guys couldn't find a way to crack the ancient tomb, so they wanted to find clues from the "Book of Luban". ”
According to the analysis of the Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau, the robbery hole next to the ancient tomb should have been dug out more than half a year ago, and it was half a year ago that the mysterious old man went to Wen Qingshan's shop to find the "Book of Luban".
I was thinking about it when Li Shaobing hurriedly walked over and said to Wen Qingshan: "Master Wen, just now the police center received a call from someone, saying that five days ago, he had seen Niu Shaohua, and there was an old man with gray hair with him. ”
Wen Qingshan's eyes lit up: "Where have you seen it?" ”
Li Shaobing pointed his hand not far away and said, "In Matou Town, which is not far from here, Brigade Luo asked me to ask you if you want to go over and have a look, and they are also organizing police forces to rush over." ”
Wen Qingshan immediately nodded: "Okay!" Check it out! ”
In order to avoid startling the snake, Li Shaobing changed into a set of civilian clothes, got into Wen Qingshan's car, and the group drove in the direction of Matou Town.
Matou Town is a small town on the outskirts of Xiangsha City, only seven or eight kilometers away from the landfill where Niu Shaohua's body was found.
Wen Qingshan parked the car in front of a small restaurant, and took a satchel from the car for Niu Fat to carry, and a few of us walked to the town.
Wen Qingshan took out a compass from his satchel and buried his head in the pointer on the compass as he walked.
I asked curiously, "Boss Wen, why do you use this thing too?" ”
Wen Qingshan smiled and said, "Hehe, didn't I say that I am the director of the Bozhong family!" Whatever is easy to use, I will use it, whether it is martial arts or yin and yang occult arts. ”
I asked, "And what are you looking at with the compass now?" ”
"I've heard that to cultivate the Xuanming Ghost Technique, you have to find a place where the Yin Qi is relatively heavy, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort. So I wanted to try it with a compass to see which house had a heavier yin qi, and maybe I could spot them. ”
Li Shaobing didn't understand what we were talking about, he glanced at the compass in Wen Qingshan's hand, and asked curiously, "Master Wen, can you really find the murderer with this thing?" ”
Wen Qingshan smiled: "Hehe, I'm just trying, don't get your hopes up, maybe they just passed by here and didn't leave any clues." ”
As we walked along, we soon came to a dilapidated looking courtyard surrounded by a two-meter-high adobe wall, the paint on the door had faded and it was full of holes, which must have been many years old. Outside the courtyard gate, there is a large locust tree with a diameter of more than half a meter, with lush branches.
