Chapter 13: He's Practicing Magic
Their hall master, the hall master of the day after tomorrow, actually died quietly in the main courtyard!
How sensational!
The ten leaders plus Zhao Xun all had bad faces, anger and fear.
Angry that the hall master was killed, fearful that the hall master was killed, the hall master was killed, let alone them? Not to mention that the location of the main courtyard is in the entrance of the hall, and it is heavily guarded, and it is actually killed!
It's scary.
"Old ...... Old cow! Look closer! ”
"Don't jump to conclusions, I remember that the hall master was injured and hurt his bones, take a look!"
……
There was chattering here, a little hurried, but Zhang Shan over there was walking quietly in the house.
Not only are the bones and flesh gone, the clothes are sparse, and some of the furniture in the house has also been destroyed, but the damage is not large, only a few spots can be seen in a few places.
"It's not like a battle broke out, and the Lifu Hall Master was killed in seconds by absolute strength?" Zhang Shan had already identified the deceased as the master of the Lifu Hall.
Turning his head and glancing at the scraps of clothes and splattered meat scraps all over the ground, Zhang Shan felt that this was unlikely.
With the cultivation of the Lifu Hall Master, it is difficult to kill it in seconds unless a strong person at the innate level makes a move, but such a strong person, even if it is a demon cultivator, will not cause such a mess when eating meat.
Inevitably, I will pull out the clothes, clean them, and swallow them whole!
Whole? Zhang Shan looked at the white bones again, especially the tooth marks on them.
Completely exclude the possibility of cultivating people who eat flesh and blood to a very high level.
The flesh and blood are all gone, so why leave the bones? The bones of a person who has achieved cultivation are no worse than flesh and blood.
Moreover, the existence of tooth marks also proves that the person who nibbles has tried to gnaw on the bones, but he has not been able to bite them, which indirectly proves that the cultivation of the person who gnaws is not high.
What did the hall master of Nalifu die for?
Puzzled, Zhang Shan aimed at the other things in the house, rummaging through the books in the house, wanting to see if there were any clues in them.
It really made Zhang Shan find something.
It's blatantly lying in the desk drawer!
Zhang Shan took out a dozen or so pieces of paper in the drawer, with messy handwriting on them, and hurriedly browsed, Zhang Shan concluded that this was the cultivation perception of the Lifu Hall Master, although the things recorded on it were messy, but they were very profound, and it was obviously the occasional inspiration and recorded by the Lifu Hall Master when he was practicing.
Unorganized, but it's a valuable thing.
But it's not this that makes Zhang Shan's heart frightened, the messy record is full of magic!
Between the lines is full of cruelty and gore.
"Suck the blood marrow, eat live meat, suck the brain, practice the magic will, and become a demon ......"
Zhang Shan browsed slightly, and a chill ran down his spine.
If this thing is the cultivation notes of the Lifu Hall Master, then there is no doubt that the Lifu Hall Master is cultivating magic skills!
Holding the pile of papers, Zhang Shan walked over to the ten leaders.
"Guys, are you sure, is this corpse your hall master?"
Only then did Zhang Shan be convinced that this corpse was the Lifu Hall Master, but he was only guessing that at this moment, he hoped that this corpse bone was the Lifu Hall Master.
The ten leaders had gloomy faces and bad looks.
"It's indeed our hall master, and the old wounds on his body are exactly the same."
Zhang Shan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it would be good if it was the master of the Lifu Hall, otherwise if it was someone else who was lying down, it would be the master of the Lifu Hall who was making trouble outside, then he would really have to run away quickly.
"This is what I found, look at it, is it your hall master's handwriting?"
A wad of paper swirled in the hands of the ten leaders.
"It's ...... That's impossible! ”
"Magic? Magic! ”
"No, it's impossible for the hall master to be cultivating magic skills!"
……
No matter how unbelievable the leaders were, the manuscript paper was here, and the handwriting on it said everything, the Lifu Hall Master was indeed cultivating magic skills!
It's a big deal.
At first, it was Lifu Hall that someone was involved in demon cultivation, but now it is simply the Lifu Hall master who is cultivating demon skills! The gravity of the situation has further developed, and their sin has become even heavier! After that, Zhenyuanguan was investigated, and it was no longer just a matter of Lifu Tangkou, the hall master cultivated magic skills, and the Shuidian Gang was also to blame!
The ten leaders all felt a headache, and a series of unexpected events followed, and their brains were about to burn out.
They didn't know what to do for a while, and their minds went blank.
There is only one thing that makes them happy, this white bone is the hall master, and the hall master has already sent it!
Otherwise, when they thought that the hall master was cultivating demonic skills, they panicked.
Just imagine, Tang is still alive, in order to cultivate magic skills, who will he extend his claws to?
The mortals of Guanhu County were inevitably affected by disasters, and even they themselves might have been quietly caught practicing by the hall master.
Just thinking about it scares me.
Now that the hall master has sent it, although it makes them a little sad, they are more fortunate that the previous anger is gone.
After a long moment, the ten leaders came back to their senses.
"What should we do next?"
The ten leaders plus Zhao Xun looked at each other.
"Smack."
Zhang Shan clapped his hands and attracted everyone's attention.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the seriousness of this matter is beyond our imagination and beyond our capabilities."
"In any case, this matter must be reported to the True Yuan Guan, and you also need to report it to the Shuidian Gang."
The ten leaders held their foreheads, only to feel a headache.
The hall master cultivated the magic skills, they had to report to the Shui Dian Gang, and they would inevitably be criticized afterwards, coupled with the pressure of the True Yuan Concept, they couldn't imagine how much the hall would have to pay to survive safely.
"Until then, you'd better catch the demon cultivator who is making waves outside, and the demon cultivator who has eaten your hall master. Only by giving an explanation will the price you have to pay be reduced. ”
Zhang Shan looked at everyone: "And if nothing else, the two should be the same person." ”
The entire Baifang Prefecture is controlled by the righteous path forces, and although there are demon cultivators who appear from time to time, there are not many of them.
In a small Guanhu County, it is already terrible for a demon cultivator to appear, two? Unlikely.
The ten leaders hesitated a little, the hall master died, and it seemed that he knew that he was gnawed by the demon cultivator, who knew what the demon cultivator was cultivating? They took the initiative to send it to the door, and it is very likely that they are killing themselves!
Seeing that they looked strange and prevaricated, Zhang Shan thought for two seconds, and suddenly revealed his speculation about the strength of demon cultivation.
Well-founded and convincing.
Ten leaders were also convinced.
As long as the demon cultivator outside is not strong, what are they afraid of? Of course, you have to take the other party to atone for your sins! Deduction comes at a cost!
"Also, I have a question for you." Before the ten leaders were about to do something, Zhang Shan remembered something and asked.
The ten leaders were puzzled.
Zhang Shan said: "You don't know these things at first, what made you choose to report the skinning and heart-digging incident to Zhenyuanguan?" ”
"And what's in the Corpse Throwing Ridge?"
Ten leaders, you look at me, I look at you, Lao Qi was pushed and pushed out.
He glared back at the old fellows and coughed.
"When I was investigating the case of peeling and digging out the heart, the people below found something."
……
Qin Niu, Lao Qi and the others left, and the demon cultivators who peeled their skins and dug their hearts did have some information that Zhang Shan didn't know before, and their identities were a little tricky, and they didn't want to touch this hot potato before.
Now that the hall master is cultivating demonic skills, he is facing tremendous pressure, and the previous worries are no longer worth mentioning.
Zhang Shan did not go with them.
He was indeed a little curious about the identity of the demon cultivator, but the explanation given by Lao Qi only solved a few doubts in his heart, and there was one biggest question that was not answered.
"The corpse that was dug out was also found on the corpse throwing ridge."
Zhang Shan muttered, he had guessed the information revealed by Lao Qi, and because he guessed it, he had made in-depth speculations at that time.
At that time, Zhang Shan had a question in his heart.
If that demon cultivator was digging up the heart of the corpse in the corpse throwing ridge, then why did he still go on a killing spree in Guanhu County?
All the information he had learned in the past few days was tumbling in his mind, and several questions in his mind were embedded in it.
"Shhh
A flash of inspiration flashed, and Zhang Shan thought of a possibility.
Pulling Zhao Xun, Zhang Shan asked him to lead the way, he wanted to go to the corpse throwing ridge to take a look at the scene.
Zhao Xun was a little inexplicable, but he couldn't resist Zhang Shan, so he could only find someone to lead the way, and he had never been there himself.
It was sunset and dusk, and the sky was getting dark.
Two subordinates took Zhang Shan and Zhao Xun to ride four fast horses to the corpse throwing ridge.
The corpse throwing ridge is not far from Guanhu County, which is originally used to facilitate the poor mortals in Guanhu County to throw corpses.
It's not close, it's close, and the smell of corpses is overwhelming, and I can't stand it.
Riding fast all the way, the two of them did not consume any internal strength, and rushed to the corpse throwing ridge in good condition.
Before he could enter it, the strong smell of corpses came to his nose.
Zhang Shan almost couldn't hold back and vomited.
frowned, wrapped his mouth and nose with clothes, and used internal force to suppress the discomfort.
The Corpse Throwing Ridge is a low valley with rocky mountains on all sides, and it is indeed a good place to throw corpses.
Two subordinates jumped into it with Zhao Xun and Zhang Shan on the side of the valley slope, and it was black, and there were traces left by the burning fire everywhere.
Zhang Shan twisted a handful of black ash from the stone, which was the remnant of the burned flesh and blood.
The ground is yellow and white, and there are broken bones and slag everywhere.
At the bottom of the valley was a thick layer of dead bodies, and I don't know how many layers were piled up, so they were piled up there.
The corpses were not stacked neatly, perhaps because the corpses were thrown directly down from the edge of the valley, and the corpses were extremely distorted.
The man's head was half-disconnected and pressed under the man's buttocks, and the man's body was obviously lying on his stomach, but his hand was ninety-degree through the other man's chest and abdomen.
A pile of corpses, interspersed with hands and feet.
Zhang Shan didn't dare to go any further, and the place he got closer was soaked with rotting corpse oil.
"After peeling the skin and digging out the heart, Tangkou found out about the situation here in two days."
"I've been protecting this place for more than ten days, and I haven't let anyone else set fire to these bodies."
One of the two subordinates took Zhang Shan and Zhao Xun around the corner while talking, went to the side, pointed to one place and said.
"This is where we found the body, and the body has been sitting here all this time, and it has not been taken away."
Zhang Shan frowned, the corpse was already crawling with fat maggots.
In such a place, no matter how new the corpse is, it will rot in a day.
"Why don't you take the body away?"
The two men were so impressive that they did not dare to answer.
Zhang Shan thought about Lifu Tangkou's reluctance to intervene before, and then he knew that Lifu Tangkou just wanted to guide him to solve it, and didn't want to interfere too obviously, so that he didn't even want to take away the corpse found here, so he put it here, lured him to see, and pretended that they didn't know anything.
Shaking his head, Zhang Shan urged the internal force, and with strong internal force, he lifted several corpses through the air and moved them to his side.
"What a daze, help!" Zhang Shan complained to Zhao Xun, looking at the scenery? Don't you know how tiring it is? Still not helping?
It took some effort to move a few corpses aside.
The air lifted the thin shroud from their bodies.
A full load of white maggots scurried out of their bones.
Zhang Shan frowned, he couldn't see any flesh and blood at all.
"Are you sure their hearts are gouged out?"
The two men nodded, both of whom had witnessed it at the time.
"Where's the skin? Have you been stripped of it? ”
After thinking about it, they replied, "No." ”
"Have you checked, were they dug before they died, or were they dug up after they died?" Zhang Shan asked again.
"After death, it is dug up after death! The servants in the hall came to see it. ”
Zhang Shan frowned, and looked at the good shroud again.
Sigh, his previous guess was actually right, but he didn't want his guess to be right.
