Most people don’t know how profitable the business of removing excrement is, but they must know how stinky it is.
The sun gets higher, and in the cesspool... well, I won't describe it in detail.
In short, the stench is overflowing and the flies are dancing.
There is no need to put up signs to drive people away, idle people know how to avoid it. Therefore, this place is usually deserted. After all, who has nothing to do to disturb the fermented aroma after the reincarnation of grains?
Only morning and night, there is an endless stream of workers selling night incense, either carrying burdens or pushing carts, swaying around, spreading the night incense.
But today, two strange people who don't fit in are thrown into the room.
An officer and a Taoist priest squatted by the waterway and frowned at the excrement spilled all the way.
These two people are naturally Li Changan and Bo Ziyu.
…
This time I finally didn't miss it.
Mud trail found!
However, it was still a step too slow.
People who come and go to collect dung have already trampled the traces, and the dung water spilled along the road has mixed the remaining smell.
Although it is certain that the monster is indeed a demon, and it did come ashore from here, its specific whereabouts are difficult to know.
As a last resort.
The Taoist priest had no choice but to sacrifice the Chonglong Jade.
In an instant.
A mountain of shit and a sea of shit are coming!
Li Changan shivered and wandered around the cesspit.
Finally, with a livid face, he patted Bo Ziyu on the shoulder, ran away, and went to wash his nose.
As for the monster, I still haven't found it.
…………
Bo Ziyu was very worried.
As long as the ghost dares to puke in the cesspit, he can jump in and fish out the monster.
Unfortunately, the monster was not in the cesspit, so he lost the opportunity to swim, so he had to get angry with a bunch of vines on the side of the road.
But suddenly.
He trembled and his eyes were fixed on a passerby, unable to move his eyes away.
This man was also a collector of night scents. His clothes were shabby and his hair was disheveled. He was pushing a small cart with a large dung bucket attached to it. He was swaying around while pushing the cart.
His movements are clumsy and unfamiliar, but what kind of profession is there without a novice? There is no doubt about it.
But the more Bo Ziyu looked at him, the more strange he became. The more he looked at him, the more suspicious he became.
Weird.
The collection of evening incense begins before dawn. The sun is already high now. It is said that the dung collectors everywhere in the city have already finished their work. Why is this person so late?
Weird.
When he came out of the manure tank, the bucket should have been empty. Why was it that the ruts were deep and the cart was bumpy and tilted, but not a drop of juice was spilled?
My mind is still confused, but my steps have already picked up.
The dung collector seemed to notice him, and suddenly sped up.
Bo Ziyu was not surprised but happy.
"stop!"
He yelled, threw his legs, and chased after him.
The manure collector was not slow at all. He could walk quickly while pushing the cart, which made Bo Ziyu stunned and unable to catch him.
However, this man was a little new to the skill of pushing a cart. He just chased him into an alley and failed to see the road clearly. The wheels hit the roadside and the bluestones flew up, causing the man and the cart to flip over and fall to the ground.
The dung bucket on the car overturned and a body dripping with juice rolled out!
Bo Ziyu was slightly startled.
Immediately.
It's like there's a firecracker stuck in my head.
"boom."
Exploded.
He forgot the yellow talisman in his hand, and even the sword at his waist. He yelled "Wow!" and pounced on him. He subconsciously used the fighting skills he had honed in his youth: stroking his hair with one hand and stroking his hair with the other.
Pick up your crotch.
At first, he had a slight advantage, but then he felt a terrifying force burst out from the other party, almost tearing him apart. However, this force came and went quickly, leaving him
I just thought it was an illusion.
He quickly pinned the opponent down, pushed his face into the ground to eat the dirt, and clasped his hands behind his back.
After doing all this, he looked up and saw the Taoist priest standing in front of him with a confused look on his face.
"Taoist priest, look!" Bo Ziyu was so excited that his tongue trembled, "I caught it!"
"What?"
"monster!"
"But..." Li Changan scratched his head, "This layman is a human being."
Karma?
Bo Ziyu's expression suddenly froze.
He hurriedly turned the face of the person under him and glanced at him, but his eyes widened.
"Zhou Huai!"
…………
It's still a cesspool.
But it's not as deserted as before.
Dozens of excrement collectors and detectives are gathering here, enduring the stench and poison of excrement, dragging out corpses one after another from the excrement mud.
Li Changan read it in silence, then turned and walked into a nearby residence or a temporary prison.
"how?"
Bo Ziyu replied angrily: "This guy still hasn't said a word."
Li Changan frowned and turned his eyes to the corner.
There, Zhou Huai, a well-known scholar and the eldest son of the Zhou family, who had "resurrected from the dead", sat cross-legged in silence, silent.
"Is this guy really not transformed into that monster?"
The young policeman was unwilling to give in.
Li Changan shook his head: "He has no demonic aura about him."
"Then this guy has been deceived by monsters."
"The light in his eyes was clear and clear, and there was no sign of being deceived."
"Then why does this bitch not even fart!"
Bo Ziyu was anxious and angry.
He originally risked his life to catch the "monster", but he didn't expect it to be Zhou Huai. It didn't matter if it was Zhou Huai. He was robbed by the monster and secretly transported the body. It was probably under the instructions of the ghost, more or less.
You should know where the ghosts are hiding now.
Unexpectedly, he was caught fighting and reported to the Ming government, which sent officers to retrieve the body. Most of the day passed, and he didn't even utter a single word.
"Even if you don't care about the monster continuing to harm people, you should still know that your whole family has been killed by the monster. It's a good thing for you, not only did you not take revenge, but you protected the monster!"
Bo Ziyu gritted his teeth, and the spittle he spat out was like fire, but Zhou Huai didn't even raise his eyelids.
Li Changan shook his head at this time.
"Because we, no, I was wrong from the beginning."
"Last night, I just relied on my usual experience and concluded that the monster broke into Zhou's house from outside. After killing people, he rolled up his body and left. But I forgot that Xiaoshui is different."
"Jushi Bo." Li Changan suddenly asked Bo Ziyu, "Do you know Aunt Tiger?"
"Is it the monster that pretends to be a mother-in-law and eats people?"
"It's the monster, but it's not an imitation." The Taoist paused, "Aunt Tiger was transformed into a mother-in-law."
At this point, he left behind the surprised and confused Bo Ziyu and turned to Zhou Huai in the corner.
"Eight corpses were pulled out of the cesspool. In addition to your family members, there are also two beggars living nearby, but there is no corpse of your father."
"I think you are not protecting the monster, but your father."
The light in the small room was dim. Amid Bo Ziyu's shock and Zhou Huai's silence, Li Changan slowly confided:
"Your Majesty is a ghost!"
As soon as this statement came out.
Bo Ziyu's shock was insignificant, but Zhou Huai, who had been silent all this time, raised his eyes, smiled, and buried his face again.
"You bastard!"
When Bo Ziyu saw this, he became furious again, strode up to him, and grabbed him by the collar.
"I'll give you a punch first. I'll beat you until your skin is bruised. I'll see if you don't say anything!"
The implication is that if you refuse to listen to all the good things you say, you will have no choice but to be tortured.
The Taoist priest had no reason to object, and Bo Ziyu had already raised his fist.
"stop!"
But it was the official who was leading the charge last night, the rumored replacement for Capt.
"Mr. Zhou is a noble man with great fame, but you and other lowly servants can beat and scold you randomly?"
Bo Ziyu was furious.
"Head of the class..."
Okay, it's "squad leader" not "capture leader". As soon as these two words are spoken, you don't need to listen to the rest of the words, the Taoist priest will know that the ball is over.
as expected.
The new head catcher immediately jumped up and not only tortured them, but also kicked them out of the room.
As for Bo Ziyu's words that "there are ghosts running around, innocent people will die in a moment", he didn't listen at all. Thinking about it, he would rather die a few idiots than offend the scholars. But Bo Ziyu couldn't see the seriousness of it, so he still agreed with him.
Fight rationally.
But if your mouth can solve everything, why do you need a pair of fists?
Li Changan silently moved his wrists a few times. Sometimes, he would inevitably have to use some unconventional means.
Just when he was about to take action.
But he saw a strange policeman quietly approaching the two people who were arguing. He flipped his wrist and found two short needles. He faced the Taoist priest's surprised gaze and his lips moved silently.
"it's me."
Li Changan: "..."
I had no choice but to look back and say: Please.
But also at this time.
Bo Ziyu suddenly slapped his forehead.
"How could I forget!"
He first glanced at Zhou Huai with disgust, then turned around and said quietly and hastily:
"I heard that this guy likes to talk about Taoism, and his family has worshiped Taoism for generations. We and other officers asked him, but he kept his identity and didn't bother to speak. What if he is a Youdao Quanzhen who is profound in Taoism?"
This is a good idea.
Li Changan couldn't help but nod.
Zhou Huai refused to reveal the hiding place of the ghost because of his foolish filial piety. But after all, his family was destroyed overnight. Is there really no trouble under his calm appearance?
but.
Why are you looking at me?
I am a wild Taoist priest.
I can’t even memorize all the Taoist and Tibetan catalogues.
