Chapter 437 What Is the Motive?
After Qin Shaoyou heard Cui Yougui's words, his face suddenly darkened.
Monk Ma didn't react immediately, he said with some surprise: "Old Taoist, did you make a mistake in your calculations? Huang San doesn't know how to clone himself, so how could he exist in several places in the city..."
Having said this, Monk Ma was stunned, but he had tasted it.
Huang San doesn't know how to clone, but he can be cloned!
Monk Ma's expression became serious.
He glanced at the people gathered outside the yard to watch the fun, then at Huang Liu who was crying beside him, and asked in a low voice, "Old Master, what do you mean to say that Huang San is dead and dismembered?" Throw it all over the city?"
"That's right." Cui Youxuan nodded, confirming Monk Ma's guess.
Immediately afterwards, he added: "After I calculated Huang San's position, I even made a fortune for him. The main divination is the big grave, the changing divination is burning paper, and the mutual divination is carrying the coffin... These are the hexagrams that must die!"
Qin Shaoyou and Monk Ma looked at each other.
They were not surprised by Huang San's death.
Although the demon situation in Mianyuan County has improved greatly with the efforts of everyone in the demon town, the demons have not yet been completely wiped out, and the night is still dangerous.
Huang San disappeared all night, and was neither found by the night watchman nor was found by his family and neighbors after dawn.
Qin Shaoyou and Monk Ma just couldn't figure out what kind of demon ghost would kill a person and then divide his body and throw it in many places?
Isn't this superfluous?
Isn't it afraid of being discovered by the night watchmen or wandering souls patrolling the streets and Qingji when throwing the corpse, thus exposing itself?
Is it doing this simply to vent its anger, or is it performing some special rituals?
Or is there any other reason?
With doubts, Qin Shaoyou asked in a low voice: "Where is Huang San's body thrown?"
Cui Youxuan replied: "There are two clusters of his aura to the south, and three clusters to the west...As for the specific location, I can only confirm after I get the vicinity."
Qin Shaoyou immediately issued an order: "Monk, take a few people with us. By the way, don't tell Huang San's family this clue for now."
The case has not been investigated clearly, and Qin Shaoyou is afraid that if he tells Huang Liu the clues in advance, the news will leak and the ghost who committed the crime will be on his guard.
It's not that he is suspicious of Huang Liu's family, but that not only Huang San's family lives in this yard, but also other people.
What if these neighbors ran to Huang Liushi to inquire about it after they left, and Huang Liushi made a slip of the tongue?
"Don't worry, my lord, I know what to do."
Monk Ma took over the command, and immediately made arrangements to leave a few night watchmen here to continue to investigate the scene and interrogate the confession, while he brought a clever patrol officer and two strong men to follow Qin Shaoyou and Cui Yougui to find Huang. Three dead bodies.
Seeing that they were about to leave, Mrs. Huang Liu bravely came up to them and asked, "My lords, have you found any clues? Where is my Huang San now?"
Your Huang San is everywhere now...
Qin Shaoyou sighed softly in his heart, and said on his mouth: "We haven't found any clues yet, and now we plan to go to the places Huang Sanping usually goes to do investigations. Don't worry, we will definitely notify you when we find Huang San .”
Huang Liushi is just an ordinary woman, not to mention being an official, she has not even seen a few officials. After hearing Qin Shaoyou's words, she didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she could only obediently agree. At the same time, he said some pleading words, begging Qin Shaoyou and the others to help find Huang San.
Qin Shaoyou sighed secretly again.
People may be able to get it back, but it's hard to say if it's not complete...
After leaving Huang San's house, everyone followed Cui Yougui all the way south.
Some of the people who gathered around Huang San's house to watch the excitement also parted out to follow behind them. Qingji, who had stayed here to watch the excitement, also followed Qin Shaoyou and the others.
People who like to join in the fun are really indispensable everywhere.
Of course, Qin Shaoyou couldn't let these people follow, otherwise, before the clues were found, he would have to startle the snake and make the ghosts take precautions.
He quietly took out the illusion ghost bead, and recited "Great Summer Law" in his mouth.
Those who followed them were all ordinary people who were instantly tricked, and were drawn to other places by the illusion, and Qing Ji was no exception.
By the time these people and Qingji woke up, Qin Shaoyou and the others had already disappeared.
The reason why they still want to get rid of Qingji is because they are afraid that they will talk too much, and everyone who makes a fuss about the case will know, and at the same time, they want to let them continue to patrol.
After getting rid of the followers, Qin Shaoyou and the others speeded up and came all the way to the southern city wall.
Cui Youxuan stopped here, and after counting his fingers in his mouth, he nodded and said, "That's right, a part of Huang San is near here."
Qin Shaoyou immediately ordered Monk Ma to lead the night watchmen to carry out a carpet search around here.
He and Cui Yougui were not idle either, they were also searching around earnestly.
There are no residential buildings under this city wall. There used to be a piece of weeds and shrubs, but because of the previous drought, the weeds and shrubs were all withered, and they were taken back by the nearby people for firewood. Now there is only a piece of bare mud. Some sporadic grasses that have only grown in the past few days have greatly facilitated everyone's search work.
It's just that after everyone searched, they couldn't find anything.
Monk Ma couldn't help asking, "Old Daoist, did you miscalculate the position?"
Cui Yougui was the one who didn't want anyone to question his ability, so he immediately refuted: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! My divination skills are invincible in the world..."
Speaking of this, he may have realized that "Invincible Under Heaven" was a bit too much. After coughing a few times, he changed the subject: "Anyway, I have calculated it several times, and there is absolutely no way I can make a mistake."
Qin Shaoyou was about to open his mouth to smooth things over, when he suddenly saw Qiu Rong who came with them, standing beside the wall bricks with a red umbrella, tapping the ground with his toes.
With a thought in his heart, he immediately had a guess, and hurriedly asked her: "Is there something under the ground?"
Qiu Rong nodded and took a few steps back.
Cui Yougui immediately ordered to the night watchman beside him: "Go and dig it, it might be Huang San's bones. Qiu Rong is a ghost, and she is much more sensitive to things like bones than us living people."
At the same time, he did not forget to say to Monk Ma: "I said that I will not make a mistake in the calculation, do you believe it now?"
A night watchman stepped forward, untied from his back an engineering shovel designed by Qin Shaoyou and made by the craftsmen of Zhenyaosi, and began to dig the ground at the position pointed out by Qiu Rong.
Without digging a deep hole, a discovery was made.
A long strip of bone was dug out.
I just don't know if these are human bones or animal bones.
Qin Shaoyou turned his head and said, "Go alone and call the genius doctor."
Although there is a great possibility that this bone is Huang San's remains, Qin Shaoyou has always been cautious and still wants to hear the opinions of professionals.
Moreover, Shan Daonian was called here to see if he could find more clues from this bone through means of oppression.
Immediately, the night watchman took orders and left quickly.
Cui Yougui, Monk Ma and the others huddled around this bone, talking strangely.
Ghost cannibals, either eat people up in one gulp, or dig out the heart and lungs to eat the essence, and then throw the corpses everywhere.
I have never seen such a situation where the meat is gnawed clean and then the bones are buried.
Moreover, this human bone was not buried too deep.
So what is the motive and purpose of this ghost?
Conscience found out that he didn't want to expose the dead body of the person he had eaten to the wilderness? Then why doesn't it bury the bones together, but divide them into several places?
Is it possible...
Is it really setting up some kind of magic formation?
After some discussion, not only Cui Yougui and Monk Ma, but even Qin Shaoyou's expressions became serious.
The demon situation in Mianyuan County has just started to improve. If some demons really created some kind of sorcerer's array, then this good situation will undoubtedly be affected.
"I just went to Goulan to listen to a book, and I didn't go to Sand Dance Theater or Brothel. Is it not so bad?"
Qin Shaoyou frowned, more and more suspicious that he was in conflict with the entertainment venues in this world...
