"Are they all living dead?" Wu Xu exclaimed, "This shouldn't be the case. I saw Liu Xuxing yesterday. Although he didn't speak, his complexion didn't look like a walking corpse."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Thousands of households, but I won't make a mistake. I won't hide it from you. The judge can see people's crimes."
Wu Xu nodded and said, "I already knew about this."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "This guy has no sinful karma, and his whole family has no sinful karma! They are not overbearing cultivators, they are not protected by the overbearing, they are not my fellow disciples, and they do not have very high cultivation levels. They have been dead for a while, and their sinful karma
Dissipated into the earth and therefore invisible!"
"How could he become a living dead?" Wu Xu rubbed his forehead and said, "I have been restless recently. Is there a strange person in the capital?"
Xu Zhiqiong remembered what Chang Decai said, that he was driven away by insects.
"Qianhu, this matter must be related to Gu magic!"
"Gu magic?" Wu Xu's eyebrows trembled, "Liang Yuming! Could it be him again!"
"How did you know it was him?"
Wu Xu said: "When you found a dozen women trapped in Yinggeyuan, Wang Zhennan rescued them, but in fact there are still more than 20 women whose whereabouts are unknown. They must have been used by Liang Yuming to refine the poison!"
"It shouldn't be!" Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said, "I heard Wang Zhennan say that when the lost girl was returned, relatives from all the families came to claim her, and I never heard of anyone who couldn't claim her!"
Wu Xu said: "You don't know that some women have no family affairs at all, especially those who are sold to the land of prostitution. Even if they have family members, they have cut off contact and no one will come to claim them. Liang Yuming must have specially collected some women who have no family affairs."
The woman is hidden and kept as a backup plan."
"If this matter was really done by Liang Yuming, what did he want to do when he reached out to the Ministry of War?"
Wu Xu rubbed his eyebrows and said two words: "Treason!"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded, and according to his inference, the result was the same: "Since he is suspected of treason, and he informed Commander Zhong of the matter, he ransacked Liu Xuxing's house, took him out and tortured him, we will surely find out.
A clue!"
"That's inappropriate," Wu Xu thought deeply and shook his head repeatedly, "If this matter is really done by Liang Yuming, but it involves the royal family, there is no concrete evidence. Zhong Shen can't touch Liang Yuming, and killing Liu Xuxing will not help. Besides, this Liu Xuxing
Can Liang Yuming really be confessed? Will he be able to speak at that time?"
Xu Zhiqiong thought of Fan Baocai, who had lost the ability to speak when he was dying.
Living people can't even speak, let alone the living dead.
Wu Xu said: "Is the "Book of Gu Transformation" I gave you still there? You should check first to see if Liu Xuxing and his family were really poisoned by the poison."
Xu Zhiqiong returned to Yilangyuan that night and first took out the second volume of "Hua Gu Volume".
The voodoo technique that can control the dead is definitely not ordinary. The next volume introduces all the advanced voodoos, so Xu Zhiqiong started from the lower volume first.
As expected, after checking two pages, Xu Zhiqiong saw the King of Gu - Golden Silkworm.
The Golden Silkworm can control dead people, and the controlled person likes to eat raw meat.
Liu Xuxing and his family all got golden silkworms?
Golden silkworm should be a very precious Gu species. Is it suitable for use in such a large area?
Xu Zhiqiong turned back two pages and found that Jin Xin She had similar properties.
Looking further back, the properties of grass silk maggots are similar...
Xu Zhiqiong read through the second volume and the first volume and found that there are more than forty kinds of Gu insects with similar properties.
More than 40 kinds were found, but none of them were found.
Xu Zhiqiong put away the "Gu Volume", pulled out Chang Decai, and asked sternly: "Tell me, what happened in Liu Xuxing's outer house?"
Chang Decai lowered his head and said, "Master, we have said everything we can say."
"You can't tell me, but you have to tell me that you were once Daxuan's son-in-law. This matter is related to Daxuan's survival."
Chang Decai bit his lip and said: "A few bugs won't be enough..."
"What do you mean it's not enough? Liu Xuxing is from the Ministry of War. Someone has poisoned the people of the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War is about to fall into the hands of the Gu sect. You still say it's not enough?"
"It's really a voodoo technique," Chang Decai sighed, "Master, how did you know about this?"
"I am a judge and I am a lantern holder. It affects the lives and deaths of thousands of people. How can I not investigate?"
"Okay, I'll say it."
Chang Decai gritted his teeth and told Xu Zhiqiong what happened.
Five years ago, Chang Decai fell in love with the house of Lan Wuqi, a cosmetics businessman. The house was not big and the place was not good, but it was very suitable for Chang Decai's soul. When Lan Wuqi went out to do business, Chang Decai took advantage of it.
This house is occupied.
And as Chang Decai said, having the immortal soul occupying the house is not necessarily a bad thing. Lan Wuqi's family was not aware of Chang Decai's existence at all, and Chang Decai has been an immortal soul for more than a hundred years, so he is naturally more knowledgeable than ordinary people.
Much more.
He secretly gave Lan Wuqi some ideas, and asked Lan Wuqi to choose a good place in the west of the city and open a new shop. The business became prosperous day by day, and the family became more prosperous.
Unexpectedly, when the family situation improved, Luo Luan also came.
The wife of Liu Xuxing, a doctor in the Ministry of War, often asked people to come to the shop to buy rouge. After repeated visits, Liu Xuxing fell in love with the shop and Liu Xuxing's daughter Lan Yan, and wanted to seize the family business.
When Lan Wuqi refused, Liu Xuxing sent people to beat him half to death, and the shop was sealed. The family had no way of living, so Chang De secretly made an idea for them.
"Our family has been in the palace, and we have heard a lot about this kind of thing. We must obey it, and we must obey it if we don't, otherwise it will only be a dead end for their family!"
Chang Decai's choice this time was actually the right one. Although the family property was occupied, Lan Wuqi's family could at least live in peace. After Liu Xuxing moved into the house, he was also influenced by Chang Decai and did not shave off too much.
Let the Lan family hide some wealth. Lan Wuqi also has two sons. They will start their own families in the future. With this little wealth, they can also make a living elsewhere.
I thought my life would just go on like this, but one day Liu Xuxing came back with a swarm of flies behind him.
Flies are everywhere, who cares?
Unexpectedly, just one night later, the lives of Lan Wuqi and his family were all taken away by these flies.
"Those flies are really scary. They can get into any place with holes in the body, and they suck people's souls when they get in. No one in the family is spared. We want to fight them, but they are in groups and we can't kill them at all."
all,
Our family’s souls were also hurt. We had no choice but to abandon their family and find another house. Our family can’t tolerate them, so how can we have the nerve to speak ill of them behind their backs!”
It's hard to judge Chang Decai's temperament. He seems to value friendship quite a lot.
Xu Zhiqiong got a key piece of information from his words, this bug was a fly.
He reopened the "Book of Gu Transformation" and read it from beginning to end, but couldn't find the fly Gu.
Although grass thread maggots are called maggots, they are not real maggots, but a type of worm similar to maggots.
Is this kind of Gu insect so advanced that even Taibu doesn't know about it?
At dawn the next day, Xu Zhiqiong found Wu Xu and told the story.
If you can't even determine whether it is a voodoo or not, you can't easily have anything to do with Liang Yuming.
Wu Xu thought about it repeatedly and decided to go to Taibu for verification.
Xu Zhiqiong dissuaded him and said: "Qianhu, I can go to this matter, but you can't go. If you go, Taibu will definitely know that something big has happened. If I go, I will only ask Taibu for advice on how to resolve the poison.
As long as you say something carefully, he may not be suspicious."
Wu Xu agreed, and Xu Zhiqiong went to the Yin and Yang Division that day.
When he saw the Taifu, Xu Zhiqiong directly asked for advice: "I have been studying the method of breaking the poison recently, and I learned from Qu Dengshou that there is a kind of fly-like poison that can suck people's souls, but I am turning the poison into a scroll.
I have never seen it here, does Taidivination know the origin of this kind of Gu?"
"A worm that looks like a fly?" Taibu smiled, "I have seen hundreds of worms in my life, but I have never seen a fly. Qu Jinshan must have heard misinformation."
Have you never seen Taibu?
Xu Zhiqiong wanted to ask again, but Taibu Tui said he was busy and served tea to see off the guests.
Have you really never seen this old guy before, or is he trying to hide something?
Is this really not a voodoo technique?
Or maybe Taibu knew the inside story and didn't want to reveal it to me?
Xu Zhiqiong left angrily and walked out of Yin Yang Division. Not far away, he met Tong Qingqiu.
Tong Qingqiu was followed by a man, wearing a long robe, with a white face and no beard. He looked to be around thirty years old.
After meeting Xu Zhiqiong, Tong Qingqiu quickly introduced him: "Zhiqiong, this is my senior brother, Han Chen, Han Yuzhi. They just arrived in the capital a few days ago."
Senior brother?
As far as Xu Zhiqiong knows, Brother Tong is in his forties.
Moreover, Tong Qingqiu was not too late to start practicing. He started practicing when he was less than ten years old. If this person is his senior brother, even if he is counted in order of entry, he is not too young.
But he looks young, which proves that his cultivation level is quite high, and he should be above Brother Tong.
Han Chen cupped his fists and saluted: "Brother Xu, I always hear Junior Brother Tong mention you, and I am finally lucky enough to meet you today."
This man was so humble. Xu Zhiqiong quickly returned the courtesy. Tong Qingqiu smiled and said: "Don't talk on the street. Let's find a place to have a drink."
Xu Zhiqiong had no intention of drinking at first, but then he thought about it, maybe he could ask Brother Tong about the flies.
"This is the first time we meet. I haven't prepared any gifts. I would like to invite Brother Han to have a glass of wine and express our feelings."
Han Chen smiled and said: "Brother Xu, there is no need to spend money. Let's go to Junior Brother Tong's house for a cup of tea."
Tong Qingqiu waved his hand and said: "Senior brother, you listen to us, the place in Yin Yang Division is boring, let's find a wine shop and have a good drink!"
Xu Zhiqiong definitely doesn't want to go to the Onmyoji Division. Taibu may not want to tell the truth. If Brother Tong tells the truth and he hears it, it will cause trouble.
The three of them went to a restaurant. Xu Zhiqiong called a private room and ordered a table of wine and food. The three of them drank a few drinks. Xu Zhiqiong asked about business: "Brother Tong, I am studying the method of transforming poison today. Do you have any?"
A poisonous insect like a fly that can suck people's souls?"
Tong Qingqiu scratched his head and said: "Brother, stop asking me. I'm really not good at making poison, and I don't know many poison insects. But can ordinary things like flies be used to make poison?"
Han Chen thought for a moment and asked from the side: "Can that person still move after his soul is absorbed by a fly?"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said: "You can move around, and you are no different from ordinary people. You just like to eat raw meat."
Han Chen asked again: "Aside from eating raw meat, does that person also like drinking blood?"
Xu Zhiqiong recalled what happened last night. There was no blood on the knife edges of the four fat sheep. Could it be that they drank it?
"Maybe he likes to drink."
Han Chen asked again: "What do those living dead look like? Do they look like corpses?"
Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said: "It doesn't look like that. He looks good and his face is very rosy."
Han Chen nodded and said, "In that case, it's a blood sac fly."
Xu Zhiqiong looked surprised: "Is the blood sac fly a very rare kind of worm?"
Han Chen shook his head and said: "It's not unusual, and it can only be regarded as half a Gu insect."
"Half a Gu insect? How do you say this?"
Han Chen explained: "Gu worms are rare. Cultivating one requires a lot of manpower and financial resources. Blood sac flies are not strong enough to fight. People in the Gu sect generally do not count them among the worms."
Xu Zhiqiong said in surprise, "You can suck people's souls away, but you still don't have enough fighting power?"
Han Chen shook his head: "A true golden silkworm can give the host up to the second level of cultivation, and a Ten Thousand Foot Grass can allow the host to get up to the third level of combat power. Such combat power, on the battlefield, can rival thousands of armies.
horse,
A blood sac fly cannot improve the host's combat power, so it is not worth spending a lot of effort to refine it just to kill one person."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "If you can use a swarm of flies to destroy an army, wouldn't it be worth it?"
Han Chen still shook his head: "This is difficult. Blood sac flies have no ability to defend against enemies. They cannot block swords and guns, let alone water and fire. As long as there are cultivators in the army who can use fire, after a fire, thousands of flies will be killed."
If there is only ashes left, how can there be any talk of destruction?"
Listening to Han Chen's explanation, the blood sac fly is indeed not suitable for fighting.
So what's the use of raising something like this?
"Is this thing not raised by the Gu sect? Could it be wild?"
Han Chen shook his head and said: "This thing is definitely not wild, it was indeed cultivated by Gu Sect. Its purpose is to nourish the blood sac.
Some voodoo insects need to suck a large amount of human blood. To cultivate such voodoo insects, you cannot kill people every day, so you need to use blood sacs.
After the blood sac fly absorbs the host's soul, it will take the host to eat raw flesh and blood, producing a large amount of blood every day to feed other bloodthirsty Gu insects."
Tong Qingqiu sighed: "The evil ways of the Gu sect are really cruel and cruel."
Xu Zhiqiong was thinking about this bloodthirsty Gu insect.
When he first came to Yin Yang Division, Taibu speculated on two types of Gu insects suitable for breeding in April.
One is Xuanxiao, which was made with women's fat. Liang Yuming failed to make it and was destroyed by Wu Xu.
