Chapter 132: Ghost Ape
A black gas quickly enveloped me, making me feel extremely stressed!
I clutched the Martial King Whip tightly in both hands, cold sweat was already breaking out on my forehead, and for the first time, when facing a monster, I felt a little powerless.
Seeing this, Langnie and Bai Ze also took out their weapons one after another, ready to attack.
However, the monster did not seem to have any intention of fighting us, and after a sharp threatening sound, it leaped and disappeared between the treetops.
It was only at this point that I felt a little more relaxed, and the heavy pressure I had felt before suddenly dissipated.
The monster appeared for a short time, only five or six seconds before and after, but it shocked me greatly.
The behemoth, which is nearly three meters tall, moves so nimble that it disappears in an instant, and if it intends to launch a sneak attack on us, the consequences will be unimaginable!
"What kind of monster is this?"
I don't have the slightest record of this monster in my memory, and for a moment I was extremely curious about the identity of this monster.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a ghost ape."
At this time, Lonnie suddenly stood up and said lightly.
Ghost ape? What kind of monster is this?
"Isn't it similar to the white-haired mandrill we encountered before?"
I asked Lonnie curiously.
"No, there's a big difference between the two."
Lonnie shook her head and said, "The white-haired mandrill is just a kind of mountain monkey that has become a spirit, and this ghost ape is not a spirit, but a kind of soul existence!" ”
Soul body? It dawned on me that it was no wonder that such a behemoth had such a sensitive movement, who would have thought that it would be a soul body?
"This ghost ape is said to be a kind of ancient ape when it was alive, because the population is too scarce, there is no roster in the Yin Cao, and after death, it can only wander among the mountains and wilderness, and live by absorbing the yin and resentment of the bones."
After listening to Ronnie's explanation, I couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
This ghost ape lives by absorbing the resentment of corpse bones, so it appeared behind Qian Lanlan that day, that is to say, Qian Lanlan has endless resentment, so it attracted this ghost ape to appear after death!
Thinking of Song Tianshi's tragic death that day, I am more and more sure that Qian Lanlan's death should not be just a simple suicide by throwing herself into the river, there must be something else wrong!
When I gave my analysis, the pony nodded his head as well.
"Mr. Cheng, you're right, I've always felt this way!"
"I haven't told you that in the process of receiving Qian Lanlan's dead baby before, in addition to the fact that the dead baby was difficult to remove, other strange things happened!"
It turned out that when the pony was examining Qian Lanlan's body, he found that there seemed to be hard objects inserted on the top of Qian Lanlan's head and soles of his feet.
At that time, Qian Youcai said with some anger that although his daughter was dead, her body was not something that could be touched, so he asked the pony to quickly dispose of the dead baby.
Although the pony felt that something was wrong, he didn't want to ask too much, so he could only stop checking Qian Lanlan's body, just dispose of the dead baby and leave.
It seems that Qian Youcai is really hiding something, and we can only uncover the truth by finding Qian Lanlan's body.
So, we followed the direction where the ghost ape disappeared just now, trekked all the way over, and after a while, we walked out of the cemetery and entered the deep mountains and old forests deeper.
The ancient trees here are towering, I don't know how many years no one has set foot in them, and the fallen leaves on the ground have accumulated a thick layer, and they creak when stepped on.
"Mr. Cheng, Mr. Bai, Sister Langnie, what do you think it is?"
As we walked, Cortana suddenly stopped, pointed to the distance, and said to us.
I followed Cortana's gaze and saw a figure hanging on a black locust tree a hundred meters away, swaying in the wind.
"Let's go, let's see!"
I shouted, and quickly ran towards the black locust.
When I came to the bottom of the tree, I finally saw clearly that the body hanging on the branch of the black locust tree was Qian Lanlan's body!
Although she had been dead for nearly a week, in this dense forest, Qian Lanlan's body was still well preserved and did not decompose.
I saw that her eyes were closed, and she had a rattan tied to her body, hanging between the treetops, like a swing, swinging with the wind.
Squeak, squeak......
The yin qi here is thick, and hanging the corpse on top of the black locust can better absorb the yin qi of heaven and earth, and the one who needs such a strong yin and resentment must be the ghost ape.
The pony was agile, he volunteered to climb to the treetops, untie the rattan, hold Qian Lanlan's corpse, and carefully climb down.
After examining Qian Lanlan's body, I quickly found a clue.
On the neck of the corpse, there was a deep strangulation mark, and peach wood nails were found on the top of the head, in the chest, and on the springs on the soles of the feet!
"Taomu Town Soul Nail, it seems that this Qian Lanlan is really killed by him!"
After just one glance, Bai Ze said his inference.
I have also heard about the fact that this peach wood nail can calm the soul, and I heard Bai Ze know so well, and I thought that Bai Ze said that most of the people in their Bai family are proficient in the art of medicine, so I asked him about the benefits and disadvantages.
"Brother Bai, what do you think?"
Bai Ze said lightly: "The strangulation marks on the corpse are blue and purple, and the area is very wide, and it is definitely not something that ordinary ropes can cause, so I conclude that Qian Lanlan was choked by someone with her hand and strangled to death before her death!" ”
"Looking at the corpse again, the three major acupuncture points have been inserted with peachwood soul suppression nails, which is obviously a measure taken to lock Qian Lanlan's ghost in the corpse and prevent the yin soul from coming to ask for his life."
"It's just that this murderer may not have expected that in order to absorb the corpse's resentment qi, the ghost ape pulled out part of the Peachwood Soul Suppression Nail, causing it to lose its effect."
After listening to Bai Ze's analysis, I can basically conclude that Qian Lanlan's death has a lot to do with money and wealth!
So, we took Qian Lanlan's body back to Shantou Village, hid it in a hidden place, and then came to Qian Youcai's house.
Knock knock!
The pony slapped the door, and in a few moments a swearing voice came to me.
"Who is so short-sighted, dare to make trouble at Lao Tzu's house, see that I don't break your dog's legs!"
As he spoke, the door was slammed open, and Qian Youcai walked out with a face full of wine, and when he saw a few of us, he was stunned.
"Pony, Mr. Cheng, why are you—why are you here?"
I sneered: "Uncle Qian, your daughter's bones are not cold, and you still have the heart to drink and have fun at home, this measure is really admirable!" ”
Qian Youcai reacted instantly, and the anger on his face quickly disappeared, and he was replaced with a sad look.
"Mr. Cheng, you, you misunderstood me, I'm borrowing wine to kill my sorrows!"
