Chapter 045: Where Did the Yellow Crystal Worm Go?
South of San'in Castle, a suburb.
At this time, it is dusk, the breeze is like an orchid, the sunset is like a poem, and the afterglow of the slanting sun is stepping on the brisk sound and the colorful shadows of the flowers, putting on golden clothes for Sanyin City.
"The sky is like a talisman, and the land is like a spirit animal. The world is divided into black and white, and cultivation strives for honor and disgrace. Those who are honored are at peace, and those who are humiliated are at peace.
There is seclusion in San'in, and it is not enough to sleep high and lie down....."
At the sound of the song, a person came, but it was a woodcutter dressed as a woodcutter, carrying a load of dead branches and tree trunks on his shoulders, as if he had just returned from chopping wood from the mountains.
San'in Castle is close to the Prison Spirit Mountain Range, and is built on the northern foot of the Ling Mountain, which is the remnant of the Prison Spirit Mountain Range.
Although the inverted bell mountain is still in the spirit mountain range, it is like a copper bell hanging upside down, the terrain is very steep, and it is very inconvenient to walk.
The Prison Spirit Mountain Range has a great inhibition on spiritual power, so cultivators are reluctant to choose a dangerous and rugged place like the Inverted Ling Mountain to enter, so as not to waste their energy and physical strength in vain. Most choose to enter from the west, from the gentle part of the Prison Spirit Mountains.
Therefore, the west gate of San'in Castle has become the most lively city gate, and although the south of the city is the closest to the Prison Spirit Mountain Range, it has become the most remote corner, and few people visit.
Only a few poor families in the city who need to go to the mountain to cut wood and wood will enter and exit through the south gate.
This woodcutter, named Fan Jin, is a poor and sour talent in Shanyin City, who only knows how to dance and write, but has no power to tie the chicken, and is clumsy in communication, so that his family is poor, so he has to go to the Lingshan Mountain every day to cut wood and beg for a living.
Bathing in the slanting sun, stepping on the hot soil, smelling the smell of the sunset, and humming a strange ballad that he learned out of nowhere, Fan Jin is happy and leisurely although his feet are sore and his shoulders are swollen.
Seeing that the city gate was a few miles away, thinking that he was waiting for his charming lady at home, Fan Jin couldn't help but speed up his pace.
In the sky, a dark cloud that occupies half of the sky floats by.
The sunset, which lasted for a long time, was swallowed up in a moment.
The whole land, all of a sudden, was plunged into darkness.
The night is coming.
Fan Jin squinted his eyes, looking into the dim distance, and was about to step on the last ray of sunlight to enter the city, when he suddenly stopped.
A few bright yellow lights flew in front of them, rushing into the dim grass beside the road.
Immediately after that, there were a few more.
More than a dozen.
Dozens of ......
A steady stream of floats by!
"So many yellow crystal insects!"
Fan Jin shouted in surprise.
The yellow fluorite insect is a kind of insect that can emit light at night, and is often caught by people for night lighting, but it can be sold for some money.
With so many yellow crystal insects, if you can catch some, wouldn't it be more valuable than your own load of firewood?
Fan Jin was moved, so he hid the firewood in the grass beside the road, touched his body for a while, and finally took out a sachet from his arms.
This sachet was given to him by his mother, and he cherished it like a treasure, but at this moment, he took out all the things inside and used it as an insect trap.
tiptoeing to follow the place where the light went, and soon arrived at the place where the light gathered, only to see the yellow crystal insects flying in the sky, countless.
The smell of the sachet attracted the yellow glowworms, and they rushed to it one by one.
Fan Jin was overjoyed and pounced, although he was a little short-sighted, but fortunately the terrain in this area was not steep, and he quickly caught a lot of them!
Just as Fan Jin was grasping hard, he suddenly tripped over something on his foot, and one stumbled to the ground, and the yellow crystal insect in the sachet was frightened and ran away all at once.
Fan Jin was extremely remorseful, and was about to get up, but he smelled a strange smell, which was similar to that of Aunt Tu, who sold pork in the vegetable market.
Fan Jin stretched out his hand and touched it, but it was a sticky piece.
When I put it in front of my eyes, I looked at it and it turned out to be red!
Fan Jin was startled, and put his head close to the thing on the ground, and after a closer look, behind the wriggling yellow crystal worm, there was a dead corpse with wide eyes and no eyes!
"Oh my god!
Fan Jin screamed in fright, hurriedly got up and ran!
I didn't run a few steps before I tripped again.
At first glance, it is a dead corpse again!
Fan Jin's heart, liver and soul were instantly frightened into the deepest part of the Prison Spirit Mountain Range!
Pluck up the courage to get up again......
I tripped again......
It's dead again......
At this moment, Fan Jin had lost his strength all over his body.
Pluck up your courage, and then look down carefully, the wriggling yellow crystal insects on the ground are all in human shape!
Boldly looked over, these yellow crystal insects were all attached to a dead corpse!
"Killed, killed!"
Fan Jin muttered to himself for a long time, and finally regained some strength, and then slowly got up, and even didn't even want the sachet, and even crawled and fled.
After a while, Fan Jin came back again.
However, there were many more people behind him.
These people were all wearing the uniforms of the San'in Mansion, but they were from the San'in City Guards and the Arrest Division.
The murder was originally under the jurisdiction of the Arrest Division, and the city guard was only responsible for the defense of San'in Castle and did not interfere often. But this matter is not trivial, in the vicinity of Sanyin City now, so many people have died, and listening to Fan Jin's description, these people seem to be teenagers wearing the clothes of Sanyin Academy.
Thinking of the killing place, it is not too far from the San'in Academy in the city, and a discerning person can understand the identity of the deceased at a glance.
As a result, the city guards were also alarmed, and the deputy commander Xuegu and Ma Anbang, the deputy director of the Arrest Department, led the team to inspect together.
Xuegu and Ma Anbang are both veterans, and after a little checking, they will understand what is going on.
"Here, only a few miles away from San'in Academy, I'm afraid there are students near the exit of the tunnel, these dead people, nine times out of ten, came out of the tunnel, and then were killed!"
Ma Anbang is also an old fritter, so he nodded and said: "This matter is so big, I'm afraid it's better to inform Shanyin Academy first, and let them come together to make a decision!"
After a little discussion, the two made up their minds and went to San'in Academy together.
Soon, Huang Xianmin, the vice president of Shanyin Academy, and Ouyang Xun, the leader of the nursing institute, came to the scene with them on a four-legged flat-billed crane.
Huang and Ou recognized it after a little inspection.
"Yes, these deceased people are indeed students of our academy!One of them is the young master of the Hua family, Hua Wuluo!" Huang Xianmin sighed, and then turned his head and asked Ouyang Xun: "Commander Ouyang, you are more familiar with the secret passage of students, near here, can there be a student tunnel exit?"
Ouyang Xun's eyes flashed with bloodthirsty excitement: "I remember, under Gao Han's residence, there is a secret passage, which leads to here!"
Huang Xianmin nodded, and said in a dark voice: "Gao Han, isn't that Wu Yan's friend? Wu Yan was discharged from the hospital today and went to the Strange Beast Pavilion, he must have gone out from this tunnel!"
Ouyang Xun suddenly said: "Presumably, Hua Wuluo and the others knew that Wu Yan was going out from here, so they came here one step in advance to wait, trying to find trouble with Wu Yan, but they were killed by Wu Yan!
"It must be so!" Huang Xianmin gritted his teeth, and said hatefully to Xuegu and Ma Anbang: "This son of Wu Yan is usually arrogant and domineering in the academy, but I never thought that he would be so vicious and kill all his classmates! Such a fierce person is not worthy of being a person from my academy! I also ask the two adults to quickly arrest him and give an explanation to many of the dead!"
Xuegu and Ma Anbang glanced at each other, and replied in unison: "Dean Huang, please rest assured, we will definitely handle the case as soon as possible, arrest him back, and prevent him from continuing to commit murder and hurt people!"
After speaking, Huang Xianmin secretly glanced at Ouyang Xun, but the two of them tacitly hid their inner pride without leaving a trace!
