In ancient times, there were many city gods, and the city gods worshiped in different places varied, but most of them can be divided into two categories: Wencheng God and Wuchenghuang.

The Chenghuang Temple in Anyang is dedicated to Wuchenghuang.

The statue of the City God is tall and mighty, holding a long sword and looking majestic.

After entering the main hall, Yan Yufei did not say anything. Instead, he led people to carefully inspect the main hall. They did not find the statue of the general punishing evil that Ye Qing mentioned, not even a painting. Nothing was found.

After returning to the main hall, he found that Ye Qing was still staring at the statue of the City God with a serious look. Yan Yufei's heart moved and he walked to Ye Qing's side and said hurriedly: "Wu Huan, how are you?"

Ye Qing said calmly: "Yes, very powerful!"

Yan Yufei: "..." Is this what I'm asking?

"Wu Huan, I'm asking you, have you discovered anything?"

"Oh, sir, that's what you're asking about. I haven't noticed it yet. Let's talk about it later!" Ye Qing shook his head, clasped his hands behind his back, and wandered slowly in the hall with a leisurely expression.

"Sir, I didn't find it!"

"We didn't find it here either!"

After a while, the police officers returned one after another and reported to Yan Yufei, but they found no statues, portraits or other items similar to those of General Punishing Evil. It can be said that they found nothing.

"Wu Huan, did you guess wrong?"

After listening to the report, Yan Yufei raised his brows, walked to Ye Qingshuo, and asked in a deep voice: "We have searched everywhere, and we haven't found the general who punishes evil you mentioned, or even similar sculptures.

There are no portraits either.”

"No?" Ye Qing wrinkled, then shrugged: "No, then just look around, maybe there will be one!"

"I'll go for a walk too!"

Yan Yufei was stunned for a moment, not knowing why, and while he was stunned, Ye Qing had already turned around and left.

When he reached a deserted place, Ye Qing took out the Sutra from his arms, bit his finger, dripped blood on it, and asked: "Where is the general who punishes evil?"

He was very sure that the person who caused chaos and harm must be General Punishing Evil, and General Punishing Evil was definitely hiding in the City God's Temple. Although no one found it, it didn't mean that he didn't exist!

Of course, just because others can't find it, doesn't mean he's not good at it. He's a man with strange skills!

If everything is uncertain, then ask the Sutra!

"I encountered a problem. I found the murderer of the serial murders during this period and chased him to his lair, but I haven't found his hiding place yet? And Yan Yufei and others have already begun to judge me.

I have doubts, what should I do?”

The blood dripped, and passages of text appeared on the strange scriptures, still with the familiar taste and method.

"Perhaps that statue of the City God can give me some clues. I always think it's weird!"

"Is there something wrong with the City God Statue?" Ye Qing frowned, but he had just observed it for a long time and didn't find any problem!

However, although the answer given by the Sutra is ambiguous every time, it will never be wrong. Therefore, if the Sutra says there is something weird about the City God Statue, then there must be something weird!

After putting the Sutra away, Ye Qing returned to the main hall and happened to see Yan Yufei walking back and forth in the main hall. Although his expression was calm, he was obviously very anxious inside.

"Wu Huan, did you find anything?" When he saw Ye Qing, Yan Yufei's eyes lit up and he came up to him.

"Well, I made a little discovery!" Ye Qing said honestly.

"Oh, what did you find?" Yan Yufei was overjoyed.

Ye Qing touched his chin pretending to be profound, looked up at the tall and majestic statue of the City God in front of him, and said solemnly: "This statue of the City God is a bit weird!"

"Weird? What's weird?" Hearing this, Yan Yufei followed Ye Qing's gaze and looked at the statue of the City God in front of him.

"I can't tell, but I just feel a little weird, a man's sixth sense!" Ye Qing narrowed his eyes slightly and said speciously.

What Wei Jing said is absolutely correct. As for what is weird, that is a problem for you professionals. If I can find it, what else do I need you to do?

Yan Yufei said nothing. Although he was not satisfied with Ye Qing's answer, he could not deny that sometimes a person's feelings are really accurate.

Although you cannot rely on your feelings to solve a crime, you cannot ignore your feelings!

"What a big statue of the City God!" At this time, Yang Guan walked in and found that Ye Qing and Yan Yufei were both staring at the statue of the City God in front of them. They also glanced at it and sighed with emotion.

"Yang Guan, what did you just say?" Suddenly, Yan Yufei's eyes lit up and he looked at Yang Guan.

Yang Guan was startled and thought he had said the wrong thing, but under Yan Yufei's burning eyes, he still said bravely: "I just said, what's the matter with the huge statue of the City God, sir?"

"Yes, that's it!" Yan Yufei suddenly touched his palm and said happily: "Just now Wu Huan said that he thought this city god looked a little weird. I looked carefully and I did feel a little weird, but I just couldn't remember it for the moment. After you

After mentioning it like this, I finally understand what the weirdness is?"

"What is it?" Yang Guan answered, and Ye Qing on the side also tilted his head slightly, waiting for Yan Yufei's explanation.

"This City God statue is too tall!" Yan Yufei said slowly: "When I was studying abroad, I went to many City God temples and saw many City God statues, whether they were Wen City God or Wu City God, but all of them

The statues of the City God are no more than two feet tall and no more than one foot three wide."

"Why?" Ye Qing also asked curiously. He really didn't know this, and the so-called weirdness was also the answer given by Wei Jing. Anyway, he didn't see it at all.

Yan Yufei explained: "According to "Folk Customs": the City God is a Yin god, that is, a ghost and god who is canonized after death, so the height of the statue cannot exceed two feet and two, and the width cannot exceed one and three feet. Statues of the City God in various places generally follow this rule.

.”

"But look at this statue of the City God. The height and width exceed the regulations, and far exceed the regulations. Although it looks tall and mighty, it gives people a sense of oppression and disharmony. Something is obviously wrong!"

"Although I don't understand, it makes sense!" Ye Qing nodded, sighing in his heart, this is a real scholar, much better than a dabbler like him!

"This city god seems a little weird, but what does this mean? What does it have to do with the case we are investigating?" Yang Guan touched his head and said honestly.

"..."

Yan Yufei was stunned for a moment, as if it really didn't matter much!

"It has something to do with it, right?" A thought suddenly flashed through Ye Qing's mind and he blurted out.

Yan Yufei and Yang Guan looked at him at the same time.

Ye Qing licked his lips and said: "I am sure that General Punishing Evil is hiding in this City God's Temple, but we have searched everywhere and found nothing. There is only one possibility, and that is that General Punishing Evil has some cover.

A means of disguise.”

"And the City God statue in front of you is much taller than the ordinary City God statue. Do you think it is possible that the general who punishes evil is hidden in this City God statue?!"

"Huh……"

"ah……"

It seems that this is not impossible!

It's okay not to say it. After saying this, Yan Yufei raised his head again and looked at the statue of the City God in front of him, feeling more and more possible!

"Is it possible? You'll know if you give it a try?" Seeing Yan Yufei's hesitation, Ye Qing said calmly.

"How to try? Wu Huan, do you have any good ideas?" Yan Yufei asked.

Ye Qing smiled and said: "It's very simple, just smash it!"

"No!" Hearing this, Yan Yufei was startled and hurriedly stopped him. After all, this statue of the City God is a grand sight in Anyang County. If it was damaged for no reason, it would be nothing if there was anything weird about it. If it wasn't weird, it would not only be embarrassing.

, the key is that it is difficult to explain to the people.

Ye Qing smiled softly: "Don't be afraid, if you break it, I'll pay for it, I have money!"

Yan Yufei burst out laughing. Is this a matter of money? He was about to explain the stakes to Ye Qing. However, before he could speak, Ye Qing suddenly stretched out his hand and placed it on Yang Guan's sword.

With a gentle push of the thumb, the long knife was unsheathed and made a soft sound.

"Wu Huan, don't be impulsive..."

"bass"

Before he finished speaking, the long sword suddenly flew out, turned into a rainbow, and hit the statue of the City God hard.

"boom……"

The statue of the City God exploded, but the next moment, a brilliant golden light burst out, dazzling.

"not good!"

The moment the statue of the City God was shattered and the golden light burst out, Miao Zhu, who was standing in the courtyard with a slightly stooped figure and old age, who had just been questioned by Yan Yufei, slowly raised his head, with a sharp and sinister light flashing in his eyes.

He walked towards the main hall.

"Stop, what are you doing?" Upon seeing this, the police officer in the courtyard hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Go away..."

Miao Zhu gave a cold shout, and a terrifying and sinister aura suddenly surged out of his rickety body, and the surrounding police officers couldn't help but shudder.

Immediately afterwards, in the horrified eyes of everyone, the Miao Zhu's nose slowly disappeared, followed by the mouth, ears, and finally the eyes, all disappeared.

No nose, no mouth, no ears, no eyes, that is, no face!

"Woooo..."

As Miao Zhu's facial features disappeared, the noses, mouths, ears, and eyes of all the prisoners in the courtyard also slowly disappeared. When all the facial features disappeared, everyone collapsed to the ground, losing their breath of life.

"Forget it, the matter has been exposed, we can't stay for a long time, it's better to leave first!"

However, after taking a few steps, Miao Zhu stopped again. He seemed to feel something was wrong. He hesitated for a moment, then stamped his foot hard, jumped onto the roof, and disappeared.

At this time, in the City God's Hall, as the golden light slowly dissipated, a brand new sculpture appeared in front of Ye Qing and others.

This statue is gleaming and made of gold. It has two heads, four eyes and six arms. One has kind eyes and one is ferocious. It is lifelike. The six arms hold six weapons: ax, ax, hook, fork, knife and sword. It looks majestic and full of strong incense and wish power.

However, amid the majesty and the power of the mellow incense, the whole body of the statue seems to contain a kind of gloomy and evil spirit. Majesty and evil coexist, giving people an extremely contradictory and distorted feeling.

"Punish the evil general, really punish the evil general." Yang Guan's eyes widened.

"Privately cast a golden body and gather incense, how brave you are!"
