Chapter 19: The Extra Man
"No, I want you to take a closer look at these two corpses!" Xu Zidao shook his head and said.
"Could it be that there are any clues to these two corpses?" Lin Taiping hesitated for a while, secretly slandering himself in his heart, and then looked at the two corpses.
The corpse on the left was a slightly taller corpse, lying on a sand dune, holding a meteor hammer with a slashed head and a barb that had been violently cut off.
His face was pale and bloodless, his pupils were dilated, and there was still fear in him, the fear of death.
He had knife wounds and sword wounds on his body, adding up to more than the "Thousand Hands Yama", but none of them were fatal.
Blood had stained his coat blood-red, and his flesh was rolled up, and the bones inside could be seen.
Lin Taiping checked for a while and determined that the person died of excessive blood loss, and such a serious injury was not necessarily good even if it was Shaolin's gold sore medicine.
After all, the gold sore medicine is only a healing elixir, but it can't live the flesh and bones of the dead.
After checking it, Lin Taiping moved his gaze to the person on the right.
This person was a woman, petite but very full, full of strength, she was lying on the sand dunes with her back to the sky in a "big" figure, her expression was very serene, but her eyes were full of fear, obviously she did not expect that she would die here.
She had no more than five wounds on her body, but none of them were fatal, and Lin Taiping really couldn't figure out what the real cause of her death was.
After looking at the corpse again, Lin Taiping still didn't find anything, he sighed, and walked slowly towards Xu Zidao.
"What do you see?" asked Xu Zidao.
"The man on the left must have died at the hands of the Sword Twin Demons, and the knife wounds and sword wounds on his body match the weapons of Satun Sky and Sha Po Di, and as for that woman, I really can't think of how she died. Lin Taiping said truthfully.
Xu Zidao nodded, did not speak, but walked towards the woman.
Although Lin Taiping didn't know what Xu Zidao wanted to do, he still followed out of curiosity.
Xu Zidao walked up to the female corpse and first glanced at her clothes, the woman was wearing a black cotton gown outside, wrapping her entire body in it, and wearing a high-necked robe inside, wrapping her entire neck.
This kind of dress was originally very common, but at this moment, it made Xu Zidao feel a little strange, this feeling was very subtle, he couldn't say why, but he always felt that something was wrong.
He groaned for a long time, his eyes wandered around these corpses, and finally stopped on the "Thousand-Armed Yama" for a moment, and suddenly his head flashed, as if he thought of something, he squatted down directly, grabbed the high-necked robe of the female corpse, and went down, and suddenly a thin black line appeared on the neck of the female corpse.
Xu Zidao's face gradually showed a smile, "Sure enough!"
"What?" Lin Taiping said with some puzzlement.
Xu Zidao did not speak, but put his hand on the female corpse and began to grope.
He first touched the neck of the female corpse, then the collarbone, the arms, the armpits, the chest......
Finally, his hands rested on the towering breasts of the female corpse.
Xu Zidao was already smiling at this time.
Lin Taiping's face changed at this time, as if he was a little scared, a little disappointed, and more in disbelief, looking at Xu Zidao with a lewd smile on his face and putting his hand on the chest of the female corpse, he couldn't help but point at Xu Zidao and said tremblingly: "You...... You didn't even spare a corpse!"
Xu Zidao looked at Lin Taiping's expression, he didn't know that he had misunderstood him, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Where did you think of going? I'm just looking for the murder weapon to kill her!"
"Murder weapon, are you really insulting her?" Lin Taiping still didn't believe it, and said.
"Really, look, this is the murder weapon that killed her!" Xu Zidao rolled his eyes and handed over the silver needle in his hand.
Lin Taiping took the silver needle handed over by Xu Zidao, measured it carefully, and his pupils gradually narrowed, "This...... This is the Black Soul Needle!"
"That's right, as long as the person who is hit by the black soul needle will have a black line on his body, once the black line spreads to the neck, even the gods can't save it!" Xu Zidao nodded and said.
"But how do you know that she was hit by a black soul needle and didn't die because of something else?" Lin Taiping felt that there were some things he still didn't understand, why was Xu Zidao so sure that there must be a black soul needle in this female corpse?
"Naturally, the Thousand-Armed Yama told me!" Xu Zi said.
"Thousand-armed Yama?" Lin Taiping was still a little puzzled.
"Do you remember the human skin mask on the face of the 'Thousand-Armed Yama'?" asked Xu Zidao.
"Human skin mask, you mean ......" Lin Taiping suddenly felt as if he understood.
"That's right! After the Sword Demon walked out of the tavern, these three people chased out together, and they were sitting at the same table in the tavern, obviously they knew each other well, since the Thousand Hands Yama wore a human skin mask, then these two should also wear it, after all, there are many people outside, and they are doing murderous and overselling things, there is no reason to show their true colors. Xu Zidao still explained to Lin Taiping.
So you wanted to start with her true face and see if you could find a clue, but you were surprised to find a faint black mark on the junction of her cheek and neck, so you thought of removing her collar to see if it matched your guess. Lin Taiping said.
"That's right!" Xu Zidao nodded and said.
"Then who did it?" Lin Taiping frowned.
"A person must not make the wrong friend, otherwise he will not know who did it even if he died. Xu Zidao sighed.
"Do you say...... She was killed by the Thousand-Handed Yama!" Lin Taiping was surprised.
Her face was calm, but her eyes were frightened, obviously she didn't expect someone to kill her, indicating that she was killed without the slightest defense, it can be seen that the person who killed her obviously knew her, and the relationship was still very close, she obviously didn't believe that this person would kill her before she died, plus the black soul needle is a secret weapon, she is familiar with her, and she is a master of hidden weapons, there is only one person over there!" Xu Zidao said lightly.
"Thousand-armed Yama!" Lin Taiping said.
"But haven't you heard that the 'Thousand-Handed Yama' has used the Black Soul Needle?"
"A highly accomplished master of hidden weapons will not make all his hidden weapons public, and the cunning rabbit still has three holes, let alone a person!" Xu Zi said.
"That's true!" Lin Taiping nodded, and then he continued.
"Then the identities of these two people are about to come out, 'Soul Hammer' Liu Jinshan and 'Changeable Mei Niang' Gongsun Zhi. ”
With that, he walked up to the two corpses and tore off the human skin masks from their faces, revealing their original faces.
"Sure enough, it's them!" Lin Taiping said.
"Are these two famous?" asked Xu Zidao.
"Very famous, do you know why Gongsun Zhi is called 'Changeable Mei Niang'?" Lin Taiping said.
"I want to hear it!" Xu Zi said.
"That's because her disguise and human skin mask are enough to confuse the real with the fake, which can be described as a divine product. Lin Taiping said.
"There are not many people in the rivers and lakes who can make this kind of human skin mask, and there is only one in the Northern Desert. ”
"It seems that this person is indeed a little powerful, but it's a pity that he saw the wrong person. Xu Zidao.
"But how did the Sword Demon die?" Lin Taiping thought for a moment, he still couldn't figure out something.
"The Sword Demon was naturally killed by the fourth person. Xu Zidao smiled and said.
