Volume 1 Chapter 39: The Magician
Although Long Shaohui frowned, he still snorted and said, "Although the corpse can't speak in court, the cremation tomorrow morning will probably have to be postponed. As long as the DNA of the corpse is verified to see if it is Director Ling's father and daughter, won't all the truth be revealed?"
I sincerely give him a thumbs up!
Tan Qing immediately hung his head, like a deflated ball. To be honest, he was not as good-looking as the ball.
Yan Xiang looked at the lantern on the roof, then stared at him and said, "So it turns out that you are the one behind all this. The dead baby and the pregnant female ghost in the old house were all caused by you, right?"
"What old house, what baby corpse and female ghost, I don't know what you are talking about?" Tan Qing lowered his head and was evasive.
I sneered and said, "Why don't I answer for you? You are an evil sorcerer who knows how to raise zombies..."
"What, he knows how to raise zombies?" Prime Minister Yan's eyes widened immediately. His eyes were big enough to begin with, but now they were as big as eggs.
"You just spread rumors and framed me. I, Tan Qing, am an authentic Taoist descendant. I don't know anything about raising zombies. You are really slandering me!" The old guy actually scolded me angrily. He looked very pure. Fuck you, you still refuse to admit it even after things have come to this.
I turned to look at Long Shaohui and said, "The one who killed your two subordinates in Shangcheng Town was a living corpse, raised by Tan Qing. If I hadn't escorted Shen Bing all the way back, she would definitely not be alive now."
Shen Bing pulled Long Shaohui's arm and nodded, saying, "Yes, I can prove it."
I looked at Yan Xiang again and said with shame: "I always thought you were the one who did all this, until he did something to me, and then I realized who the real sorcerer was."
Yan Xiang smiled faintly and said, "I'm not good at communicating with people. Maybe I helped you reconnect your arm bone at the police station, and I also helped you to explain why you couldn't speak, so you doubted me, right?"
I nodded, that's true.
"I can see that you're using the Soul Chasing Flag to raise a ghost, which means you're from the same industry. I didn't want you to embarrass yourself in front of Officer Long, so I covered it up for you."
It turns out that Yan Xiang is a pretty good person. Damn it. I should never judge people by their appearance again. In fact, my misunderstanding of him mainly comes from the very bad first impression I had of him.
I thanked Yan Xiang and continued, "It was only after I entered the old house that I understood why the sorcerer could cultivate three living corpses (Yan Xiang's eyes widened again, and I waved my hand to signal him to finish). He used the black pearls refined from my hundred ghost teeth to make a charm treasure, allowing the evil ghost to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and then kill a baby at each solar term, absorb the soul, brain marrow, and blood, and cultivate it into a Yin fetus, which is an egg corpse!"
"Originally, it is extremely difficult to successfully cultivate a living corpse. The heart and brain marrow must be soaked in infant blood. But if an egg corpse is used instead of infant blood, it is equivalent to extracting heroin from opium poppies, which is more pure and increases the success rate of cultivation. But it is also difficult to make a charm treasure. A hundred evil spirits need to kill a hundred evil spirits, which is even more difficult. So later they set their sights on my black pearl, which led to the antique dealer tragedy."
"The police went to Shangcheng Town to investigate the case. They used two living corpses and a pregnant evil ghost to hunt me down. I made great efforts to prevent them from investigating me. Otherwise, my black pearl incident would be exposed and I would no longer make it. It would be difficult to collect the raw materials for Meibao. Later, I sent Shen Bing back to the provincial capital. When I was about to go back, I accidentally met Yaxue at the train station. She is Director Ling's daughter. We were in love before, but she is also a living corpse!"
At this point, there was an uproar. How could they not have thought that Director Ling's daughter would be a living corpse.
I turned my head to Yan Ning, and she covered her face with her hands and burst into tears.
I sighed and continued, "It was because of Yaxue's meeting with me that they wanted to kill me, which led to the scene where the bitch threw the refrigerator downstairs. But after Yaxue saved me, Ling Peiqiang was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he made a self-torture plan and asked the living corpse to set fire to the house, burning a security guard and a nanny to death, and lied that they were dead. In this way, once the bodies were cremated, their family fled far away and hid their identities, and the case was left unresolved."
But when I heard the news of the death of Ling Peiqiang and his daughter, I remembered that when I was looking for someone in the underworld, I encountered a pair of ghosts who had just been burned to death and reported to the management office, so I went to the ruins of the Ling family to investigate. According to the description of the neighbors of the Ling family, the appearance characteristics of the security guard and the nanny were exactly the two newly dead ghosts I saw. I guessed their purpose at once, so there was this good show of borrowing corpses to ask questions tonight.
After listening to my story, Minister Yan nodded and said, "I'm also surprised. The Ling family has never asked me to perform any rituals. But this time when Director Ling passed away, they specifically asked me to pray for the soul of the deceased and I must not leave the mourning hall today. It seems that they want to put the blame on me. Even if they bring up the old case in the future, I will be suspected."
Tan Qing kept sneering and said, "Based on your one-sided statement, without any evidence, who can believe that I am a practitioner of the art of raising zombies?"
I told you not to rush, I will slowly find evidence for you, picked up a piece of rag from the ground, pointed at the blood powder on it and said, "This is the blood evil powder used to cultivate living corpses. You used this to provoke the evil ghost to kill me, doesn't this prove that you are a magician?"
"You ignorant child, is the blood evil powder used to raise zombies? It is used to replenish the energy of pregnant female ghosts..." At this point, he suddenly stopped talking. Saying this is the same as admitting that he knows everything. If he is not a sorcerer, then what is he?
Long Shaohui took out a recorder and shook it at him, saying, "Every word you say has been saved and will be used as evidence in court."
Tan Qing's face suddenly turned pale and he said, "What's the big deal? I just know a little bit about the secrets, and there is no direct evidence to prove that I did all this."
"Can I prove that you intend to murder someone?"
A sudden voice drew our attention to the door. Zhao Chengshi stood there, panting, with blood still on his mouth and covered in dirt. If I hadn't rescued him, I wouldn't have recognized him at first.
Tan Qing's face suddenly changed. He couldn't help but widen his eyes. He took two steps back and turned to look around.
I knew who he was looking for, so I chuckled and said, "Are you looking for Levi?"
Shen Bing immediately said, "He was chased away by Master Yan and I. He was the one who destroyed the gold position."
Zhao Chengshi sat on the ground weakly, panting, "The two of them entered the soul mirror by mistake. I had just put the resurrection spell on the roof when you attacked from behind and injured me. When I saw the little girl coming out, I was afraid that the person who had just been resurrected would be frightened, so I led you outside. I didn't expect you had an assistant who knocked me out, dragged me outside the square and buried me alive. If it weren't for the two of them counterattacking, I'm afraid I would be dead."
I couldn't help but feel grateful to this old man. If I hadn't happened to meet him, I'm afraid that even if I didn't enter the Soul Mirror tonight and let Tan Qing perform the soul-removal for us, the old guy would still have dealt with us. Then he told people that the soul-removal ritual failed, and this couldn't be blamed on him, because no one dared to guarantee that the ritual would be 100% successful. But the fact that an old man who looked after the morgue knew Taoism made me curious about him.
Tan Qing lowered his head with a changing expression on his face. This time, the victim testified that he had nothing to say. He suddenly raised his head and showed a ferocious smile: "You are all right. I am a magician. I am the one who cultivates living corpses. However, those who know the inside story will not survive tonight. The headlines of tomorrow's news will definitely be that Director Ling's funeral hall is haunted, a bloody disaster occurred, and everyone at the scene died! "
We were all stunned, not knowing what he meant. I suddenly thought of Yaxue. This was not good. He was the one who raised the living corpse. He would definitely control it to kill people!
A white shadow flashed at the door, and a pretty beauty in white appeared inside the door. Yaxue was here!
