Chapter 313

When they arrived at the Chenghuang Temple in the south of the city, Min Qiuye, the magistrate of Jinling, had already been waiting there. Zhuge Shaobing and the ten constables of six doors had already set up a warning, and the old coroner was taking two apprentices for the autopsy.

Seeing me coming, Zhuge Shaobing breathed a sigh of relief and said to Min Qiuye, Lord Min, his subordinates thought that this matter was beyond ordinary criminal cases, so it would be better to leave it to the Jianghu Department.

A series of murders occurred in Jinling City, and Zhuge Shaobing refused so much that Min Qiuye was very dissatisfied. Min Qiuye said that even if there were people in the world involved in the case, Lord Zhuge had to cooperate with the responsibility of the Six Gates to arrest theft.

Zhuge Shaobing had no choice but to know that it was natural.

This female corpse was discovered during the night patrol by the Guardian. Zhang Youqian had recorded him. During the second update, the Guardian passed by the City God Temple and heard a woman screaming. So he rushed in and found that the victim was lying in a pool of blood, and his chest was blown open with a sharp weapon. The scene was very bloody.

I called the updater, and the updater was obviously frightened and spoke tremblingly. I asked, how long did you take to hear the woman screaming and rush into the City God Temple?

The husband said that the villain didn't think so much at that time, and it only took a few breaths.

I wondered, the time is so short, you didn’t see the murderer?

The updater said, when I saw the scene at that time, I was so scared that I couldn't even move my feet. When I heard a sound in the backyard, I looked over and saw only a white shadow, as fast as lightning, running towards the back mountain.

I scolded, "It's as fast as lightning? Do you know how fast the lightning is? I asked you to explain the situation, but I didn't listen to you."

The husband cried and said that the white shadow was very fast, and the villain didn't see it clearly.

Zhuge Shaobing said, "In my opinion, it must be done by people in the world. Ordinary people do not have such skills. Lord Su, let us leave this place to the Jianghu Department. We will cooperate with all our six doors! After that, we left two or three constables and took the rest of the people away."

The husband of the victim was found, a businessman selling medicinal materials. When he saw the woman's body, he hugged his head and cried.

I asked, did your wife have any abnormal behavior before the accident?

The boss of the medicinal material said, it’s really a sin!

The boss started talking. Half a month ago, the woman suddenly became obsessed with the Supreme Tao, believed in some supreme gods, and sacrificed a pair of tombs at home. Since then, she has become divine and divine, like a demon, and she is talking about the return of the God of the Underworld every day. After dinner today, the woman said she wanted to go out for a walk, but she never came back once she left.

I asked, what is the drawing on the Thangka?

The boss reached out and gestured, and two triangles were the hexagrams of the underworld.

I was shocked. As expected, the underworld had begun to gradually penetrate into the human world. After the fortune of the Mingshan Mountain was broken, Qin Sanguan, who was guarding the Mingshan Mountain, might not be able to match it. In addition, the League of Heroes was secretly manipulating it, and people from the underworld had probably already arrived in the human world.

At this time, the old coroner came to report the situation and said that the female corpse was taken away by someone. Before her death, she had neither fear nor traces of struggle, and seemed to be fascinated by the mind. Moreover, surprisingly, the woman's wound was very strange, as if she was cut by some animal's sharp claws.

I asked, what are the cases of women missing recently?

The old coroner wanted to speak but stopped. I said you but it was okay.

Coroner said, I had seen this technique thirty years ago. Thirty years ago, there was a similar case of a woman missing and murdered in Jinling. The methods were bloody. It is said that the murderer was a human-shaped white-haired monster, and later was driven out of Jinling by people in the world. Unexpectedly, he is back now!

A thought flashed through my mind: Bai Pet!

Taoist Master Qingling, the head of Qingcheng who was controlled by Murong Baiyun with medicine. Last year, Xie Junyan and I were also plundered by it, but for some reason, we did not kill us. After we took the opportunity to escape from Taoshan, we did not pursue this matter.

However, this matter was extremely strange. I didn't tell it on the spot. I decided to find an opportunity to go to Taoshan to investigate and talk about it.

After the team was closed, we had a meeting overnight to discuss.

Zhang Youqian said dissatisfied that the recent disappearance of female family members has had a bad impact in Jinling, and even the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang have interfered with it and instructed Lord Min to solve the case within a time limit. At this critical moment, Zhuge Shaobing made such a blow to apply oil to the soles of her feet. It was really unkind.

I know what he wants to say. This kind of case is no longer a question of whether to solve the case or not. Zhuge Shaobing tried every means to push this matter against Min Qiuye and Jianghusi, and he must have his own ideas.

Originally, if Min Qiuye hadn't been airborne, he would have fallen to Zhuge Shaobing. Now that such a thing happened in Jinling City, he would have been unable to solve the case, and it would be better to demote Min Qiuye from Jinling. Therefore, Zhuge Shaobing was extremely uncooperable in this case.

Min Qiuye said, "I'm not afraid of being blamed by the top of the mountain, but I'm angry at these victims. If I can catch the murderer, even if I lose this black hat, it's worth it. Anyway, I've seen through it, and it's not interesting to be a sacred official."

I said, Lord Min, don’t say that, the people of Jinling need an official like you, and the Ming Dynasty needs an official like you.

Min Qiuye smiled bitterly, but the entire officialdom didn't seem to need me much. However, since I have been an official for thirty years, my temperament has just been like this and I can't change it. As the saying goes, if I am in a public school, I will definitely be good at practicing. I don't seek to help the world, but I can only do practical things for the people within my limited ability.

This is the truth. I heard that Min Qiuye has a straightforward personality. She was a magistrate of Chengdu thirty years ago, but she worked for thirty years. She competed every three years and was the best in the upper middle school every time, but she has never been promoted. This has a lot to do with his unfavorable personality. Last year, he was transferred from Chengdu to Jinling because of the law that a vassal king could not stay in Shu, so he was transferred by Zhu Runze.

I said that it is also a blessing for the people to think like this.

After Min Qiuye left, I asked Jiangnan, Liu Sanjin and others to go back to rest. Zhang Youqian poured a cup of tea himself and said, Come on, Lord Su, tell me what you think. When I saw you want to say something but stop, and want to refuse, I knew you had been holding back a lot.

I said, this matter has something to do with the underworld, and I have dealt with that white-haired monster.

Zhang Youqian said strangely, why haven’t I heard you say it?

I briefly told him what happened in Taoshan that I and Xie Junyan were kidnapped by Bai Chong.

Zhang Youqian said, "That's it, you won't be able to take action on this white-haired monster. If you really think about it, this white pet is still a matchmaker between you and Xie Junyan!"

I was not angrily and wasn't it a bit serious? If you are brothers, let's go to Taoshan to investigate. If it's really a white pet to kill people, with our current strength, it's not a problem to subdue him.

Zhang Youqian suddenly asked, have you ever thought about it? Since the victim believed in some supreme path, this white pet must be not alone. If it is really related to the underworld, there may be more dangerous and unknown forces behind it. Are you ready to be an enemy of the underworld?

I laughed and said, "Aren't we always fighting against the underworld?" Whether it is your master Liu Qingfeng or Qin Sanguan who teaches my sword skills, since we have all boarded this ship, let's work together. No matter what Heroes or the Underworld, you and my brothers join forces to crush them into cannon fodder!"

Zhang Youqian said, if you do this, you will be the leader of the martial arts world in the future, and I will be the first to vote for you!
