Volume 1: Linzhou Talented Case Chapter 15: Origin
After leaving Fang Mansion, Xing Qianqiu looked at Duan Ming: "Mr. Duan, did you find anything?"
"No." Duan Ming shook his head: "But I suspect that Fang Wei's death is inseparable from this rune. Lao Xing, please help me get the twelve runes of the Immortality Sect. I want to study it."
"You also want to join the Immortality Cult?" Xing Qianqiu said solemnly.
"Why should I join the Immortality Cult?" Duan Ming shook his head: "I just want to solve your case quickly, and then go back to my little nest to enjoy the happiness."
"Mr. Duan, actually I have two questions that I have wanted to ask for a long time." Xing Qianqiu said in a deep voice: "With your talent, why are you willing to live in that shabby alley? I heard about your past... not much
Brilliance..."
"A shabby alley? Indeed, it seems so to you." Duan Ming nodded: "This is a shabby house, but I am virtuous. What does it mean to be an official? I am busy all day long, just like now, it seems glamorous.
, actually as busy as a dog.”
"No, dogs are not busy. We are busy, and even dogs are worse than us today."
"On the contrary, before I met you, I acted spontaneously and followed my heart in everything. How comfortable was that?"
"What you say is interesting, but a person's life spans only one year. If you are born without any goals, wouldn't your life be in vain?" Xing Qianqiu sighed.
"Who said I have no goals?" Duan Ming blinked at Xing Qianqiu: "I want to live forever, I want to become an immortal."
"Mr. Duan, let's stop talking if you don't want to. I'm going to make this joke." Xing Qianqiu shook his head: "There are so many people in the Changsheng Sect who study the magical method of cultivating immortals all day long, but no one has actually ascended."
"Haha." Duan Ming smiled and didn't say much. Could he still tell Xing Qianqiu that he had a way?
"Second question, Mr. Duan, I don't understand. You are obviously in good health and have no disabilities, so why are you called Lao Liu?" Xing Qianqiu asked doubtfully: "Lao Liu? Are there five brothers in front of you?"
"No, no, I am the only son in the family." Duan Ming shook his head: "As for Lao Liu, don't you think the name Lao Liu is very smooth?"
"Smooth words?" Xing Qianqiu was stunned. Is there such a thing?
"That's right, in life, why should you fight for the top spot? It's good to be the sixth child." Duan Ming said with a smile: "As for being 'lame'."
"I am different from most people. I lack life in the five elements and am born to die young."
"It's like everyone walks on two legs, but I have one long leg and one short leg. How can I not be lame?"
"Old Xing, let me tell you, if you are talented and handsome, you will be jealous of heaven." Duan Ming patted Xing Qianqiu on the shoulder: "It's just right for you to be like you."
"Five Elements Que Ming...you are using these weird words that come out of nowhere." Xing Qianqiu shook his head: "That's all, if you don't want to tell me, I won't ask."
"Haha, I told you, you don't believe it." Duan Ming suddenly raised his head and laughed, with tears in his eyes: "Yeah, who can believe it? Who would believe it? Hahahaha!"
Later, Duan Ming and Xing Qianqiu visited the Du family, Ji family, and Su family one by one. They were all just like the Fang family. Except for the longevity rune, there was nothing unusual.
However, the old lady of the Su family also passed away. According to the head of the Su family, the Mirror Division came to investigate that day and found nothing unusual.
On April 11, there seemed to be no problem with Mrs. Su's illness.
Duan Ming sighed. He wanted to check, but it was obviously impossible.
Old Mrs. Su was different from Su Meng in that she was so respected that even Xing Qianqiu could not force an autopsy until there was no evidence that she was murdered.
Back at the Mirror Department, Duan Ming went directly to the autopsy room, while Xing Qianqiu went back to sort out today's investigation results.
"Sir Duan." Duan Ming had just rushed back to the autopsy room when he saw a Mirror officer guarding the door.
Duan Ming had some impressions of this official, his name was Xu Shizhong, he was very efficient and he was a diligent person.
"Old Xu, what's wrong?" Duan Ming stopped and looked at Xu Shizhong.
"Hey, it's okay." Xu Shizhong whispered: "I just wanted to ask if there is anything I can do to run errands?"
"Running errands? Are you so free now?" Duan Ming shook his head: "Are you still here to get work?"
"Master Duan, you don't know." Xu Shizhong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Now we have checked everything that should be checked, and we have checked everything that shouldn't be checked. On both sides of the Sulin River, we can almost see the wild dogs on the ground and the wild dogs in the sky.
I’ve asked all the birds, but there are no clues.”
"Although Commander Xing occasionally assigns some tasks, those tasks are very few. There are too many monks and too little food. The vast majority of people have no work to do."
"But, we don't dare to rest because we are not alive. If Mr. Xing finds out, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Then what should I do? I can only walk around the city day and night, but if I walk any longer, I'll have enough."
"So, I was wondering if I could find some work at your place."
"You are indeed quite rare." Duan Ming nodded: "Okay, how about you accompany me to the Sulin River tomorrow?"
"Okay, okay!" Xu Shizhong suddenly felt happy and nodded repeatedly.
Duan Ming then walked into the morgue, took out the paper with the runes on it from his arms, and gently placed it next to the yellow cloth.
At the same time, he took out some potions from the drawer, mixed them briefly, and put them in his collar.
Knowing that there was a traitor in the Mirror Department, Duan Ming did not believe anyone except Xing Qianqiu.
However, in Duan Ming's plan, it is not convenient to call Xing Qianqiu for tomorrow's matter, and it is indeed necessary to have someone from the Mirror Division.
It happened that Xu Shizhong came to see him now, and he had an impression of him, so he called him.
When everything was ready, Duan Ming began to study the longevity rune in detail.
Duan Ming constantly compared it with the runes in his mind, which proved that many problems were solved silently.
Duan Ming felt that his understanding of the two runes was rapidly deepening silently.
However, this deepening also has a limit, and it soon reaches the top of the bottle.
But Duan Ming is not discouraged. After all, there are as many as twelve runes in the Immortality Sect. If he could get them all, even if he couldn't understand these runes perfectly, he would probably be close.
But then I thought about it, I must not let the Immortality Cult know about my pursuit of these runes.
Duan Ming understands the madness of those who cultivate immortality better than anyone else.
If the runes in your hands are the same as theirs, that's fine. If they are different, I'm afraid they will do anything to snatch them from you.
By then, your life will definitely be in danger!
Putting the runes on the table, the rapid progress has only reached this point. If you study it carefully when you have free time, you should still be able to gain some insights.
It's just that we can only wait until the matter is completely settled before we have time to study... This chapter has been completed!
