After getting into the commercial car, Zhuge Zhengqi immediately asked me to turn on the lights in the car, and then I saw what was in the glass jar.
Mixed with the reddish-brown mucus are dozens of green particles the size of corn kernels.
Fatty Qiu only took one glance and immediately recognized the origin of the green particles:
"This is jade bone dregs
I never thought it would be so serious and use such methods to deal with these ordinary people.
No matter who the person behind the scenes is, it’s too much.”
While Qiu Beidou was talking, I had already started the business car and drove towards the hotel.
Among the two people in the car, I was the only one who didn’t understand what jade bones and dregs meant.
The ugly Taoist priest continued to wash his eyes with the mineral water in the car while explaining to me:
"Donor, this is an evil curse
The murder method of using curse and poison together is said to have been passed down from Tubo during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.
Because the curse and poisoning are combined, it is difficult to resolve them both together.
For a long time, this curse has no solution.
People who are poisoned will not die because of the poison itself.
Usually they die from other things, such as fighting with someone after going crazy.
Nothing can be seen on the body after death, but the internal organs have rotted into pus.
Only scattered bones will turn into jade."
While he was talking, I unconsciously glanced in the rearview mirror.
When I saw the glass jar next to the ugly Taoist priest, I suppressed my nausea and said to Zhuge Zhengqi while driving:
"According to what you said, the most it can do is kill people and silence them. Is it such a big deal?
Many people died in one day, and it was not uncommon for a family to get into a fight and end up with everyone dead.
But it’s such a big fuss that even a blind person can see that this case is unusual. If we continue to investigate, who can say that we won’t find anything?”
While I was talking, Zhuge Zhengqi was taking out a small medicine bottle from his backpack.
I poured out two small tablets from it and drank them with the mineral water left after washing my eyes.
After swallowing the pills, he said to me:
"What if the murderer wanted to make things worse?
After a vicious case has caused everyone in Hushan County to feel in danger, things will become much smoother later on.
By the time the higher-ups are really alerted and smart and capable people are sent down to solve the case, the murderer's goal may have been achieved long ago and people will be far away.
Donor, don’t look at the Internet era now.
If you really want to hide it from outsiders, you can still do it."
At this time, Xing Guan, who was sitting next to Fatty Qiu, spoke and said:
"This matter has nothing to do with our affairs this time. It's better to have less to do than to have more to do.
I just need to correct Hushan's destiny and return to heaven on time to regain my life.
As for the people who died here and why they died, then naturally the ghosts from the underworld will take over.
It's none of our business.
At worst, when I return to life, I will write down what happened here in a memorial and send it to heaven.
As for whether I need to send gods down to earth to deal with it, that's not my business."
After taking the pills, Zhuge Zhengqi's complexion improved a lot.
When Xingguan said this, he glanced at Qiu Beidou in the rearview mirror calmly.
However, Fatty Qiu's expression was a little dazed at this time, his eyes staring blankly at the scenery outside the window. It was obvious that there were other things on his mind and he did not hear what Xing Guan said.
The Xingguan had already said this, and Fatty Qiu had not expressed his position. Naturally, Zhuge Zhengqi couldn't say anything else.
After a few minutes, a group of us finally returned to the hotel.
By this time, it was almost dawn.
No matter what, you should take some rest, even if you sleep for a few hours.
When the four of us were walking to our respective rooms, Qiu Beidou suddenly stopped Doujun Xingguan and said:
"Xingguan, you come to my place first and I want to talk to you about something.
Ugly boy, it’s nothing to do with you two, go back and rest quickly.”
With that said, Fatty Qiu brought the somewhat surprised Star Officer to his room.
Watching the two gods go to Fatty Qiu's room, I also planned to go back to my room to rest.
But after what happened in the morgue, there is a high probability that I won’t be able to sleep.
Regardless of whether you can fall asleep or not, you should lie in bed for a while
Seeing that he had reached the door of my room, Zhuge Zhengqi suddenly said:
“Donor, what happened outside the morgue just now?
Mr. Beidou didn't explain it clearly, please tell me in detail if you are affected."
"Okay, I can't sleep anyway, let's talk to you."
While I was talking, I took out the key card, opened the door, and let Zhuge Zhengqi into the room.
After entering the room, I told Mr. Chou in detail what happened outside the morgue.
While I was talking, Zhuge Zhengqi kept his head down in a daze.
After hearing what I said, he raised his head, looked at me and said:
"Donor, this matter concerns Mr. Beidou and the superior.
Don't worry, it has nothing to do with mortals like you and me.
But have you really not seen the appearance of the man in blue?"
"Man, my eyes were covered with tears.
Everything I see is blurry.”
I picked up a bottle of water from the table, took a sip, and continued:
"But I'm sure there was one more person present,
Male, about the same height as me.
Looking at him means staring at me.
And Fatty Qiu definitely knows him. When he heard me say there was a man in a blue coat, he panicked."
Zhuge Zhengqi leaned against the chair, yawned, looked at me again and said:
"I can't tell you too much about things that are too deep.
But just know that that person is not here for you or me.
I'm going back to rest, so you should take some time to relax.
After the superior has rested, we will go and help him correct his destiny."
Seeing that the ugly old man was about to leave, I hurriedly stopped him and said:
"Let me say one more thing.
Dude, Xing Guan’s magic is still with me.
Doesn’t it require magic to correct destiny?
But I still don’t know how to pass on the magic to him
What do you think we should do?"
Zhuge Zhengqi smiled and said:
"It's just about correcting destiny, even if you can't get the magic.
Mr. Beidou also has other methods.
Don't underestimate him, he is just a mortal now. When he was an immortal, he encountered more difficult things, and in the end he was able to solve them without using immortal magic.
Okay, I really go back to rest.
I didn’t sleep well on the train. I originally wanted to catch up on my sleep last night.”
While talking, Zhuge Zhengqi had already walked to the door, and I finally said:
"Brother, look at me.
Is there still a chance to go back to three years ago?
Don't lie to me, I still had some hope.
But looking at the gods in the sky is not that good, not as good as those in Journey to the West."
