Chapter 13 Iron Painting Pavilion(1/2)

The two told the story of the case. When they said that the monster suddenly disappeared without a trace, everyone except Sikyong, who was sitting in the main seat, looked relaxed.

The other two helmsmen looked solemn. They had never come into contact with this kind of monster.

Yuan Xiu asked, "Is there really no trace? Have you looked for it elsewhere?"

"Yes!"

He clenched the scabbard in his hand and looked at Sikyong. This monster might be more difficult to deal with than he thought!

Qin Gang had some guesses in his mind. He stroked his gray beard, pondered for a moment, and nodded slightly, "According to what you said, the transformed monster probably did not use dirty water as a medium."

Everyone present except Li Huaiyun was extremely surprised.

Li Huaiyun had made this conjecture before, and now that Sikyong had spoken, he was even more convinced of his judgment.

After all, he is the Sikyong and he is well-informed.

"It's human hair,"

Li Huaiyun recalled what happened in the water prison, and the hair was indeed suspicious.

"The monster happened to appear in the water prison, which is why you made a mistake in your judgment."

Qin Gang continued to ask, "Where is the body?"

Li Huaiyun continued, "My subordinates brought it up, cut the body open, and conducted further investigation. Finally, they found an abnormality in the back of the body's head. After cutting open the skull, they also found paper with talismans on it."

"You cut open the skull?"

"Yes! Because the wound is too obvious!"

Qin Gang looked at him with admiration, "You really have no inhibitions! Aren't you afraid?"

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the head was known as the container of three souls and seven souls. The three souls of spirit, consciousness and life contained a person's life. Therefore, if anyone destroyed it wantonly, he would be punished by God.

What are you afraid of? I only believe in science, although there are many things that science cannot explain.

"How can we find out the truth if we are afraid of this or that?"

At this time, there was applause from the side, and Liu Pingzhong clapped his hands and praised, "There are too few such fearless people."

He glanced at Yuan Xiu and said, "Menghulu! This person is a waste for you, give it to me!"

"no way!"

"You can't teach him anything!"

Yuan Xiu glared at Liu Pingzhong with disdain, "What can you teach him? Except for his cultivation, he is above you in every other aspect!"

When Liu Pingzhong heard this, he became furious and almost wanted to take action, but luckily he held back.

"Don't you always want that painting? I'll give it to you!"

"I don't want it anymore!"

When Li Huaiyun saw this scene, he felt a little embarrassed. It would be okay if these two beautiful girls were jealous of each other, but two men always made him feel like he was nothing.

"What are you arguing about?" Qin Gang patted the armrest of the chair and glared at the two helmsmen sitting there. "If you want to fight over someone, you two should fight in private. Don't make any noise with me here."

Sikyong's words instantly caused the two people who were arguing to stop tit-for-tat.

"Keep talking!"

Li Huaiyun turned his head, snickered, and then said seriously, "It's a pity that the body was taken away by people from the Ministry of War! They took away the body in such a hurry, there must be something wrong in their hearts!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered what Sikyong said about the media problem. Thinking of this, he slapped his thigh suddenly, "Oh, the monster didn't actually disappear! Instead, it returned to the medium."

Qin Gang smiled, but the guy reacted a little slower, "I just thought of it now!"

Li Huaiyun sighed, "In other words, the monster has returned to the hair of the corpse. If the people from the Ministry of War took the corpse back, wouldn't it be..."

"Don't worry about them! They brought the body back by themselves. If anything happens, they are responsible for it!"

Qin Gang disagreed with this, and he looked particularly scheming, "If the Ministry of War cannot solve it, they need to find our Demon Slayer Division. When the time comes, they will still come to the door and explain everything clearly."

This old fox! Li Huaiyun muttered in his heart.

What Qin Gang is most worried about now is the seal of the Demonic Land. If there is no problem with the high-level monsters such as the phantom monsters, only people with extremely high cultivation level can enter the Demonic Land.

Taming of monsters.

Who among today's masters of Taoist yin arts can have such a level of cultivation?

Although Liu Pingzhong was the helmsman of the Demon Slayer Division, he was also transferred from a scholar. Therefore, he felt extremely angry at the Ministry of War's unreasonableness. He slapped the armrest hard and said, "The Ministry of War doesn't take our Demon Slayer Division seriously at all."

!”

"This case has been handed over to our Demon Slayer Division! They intervened forcefully and even injured our people."

Yuan Xiu corrected him calmly, "They are from my Jiange."

"What else is there to divide at this time?"

Qin Gang raised his hand and pressed it down, signaling him not to get excited, "Calm down! Don't be impatient and calm down! The Demon Slayer Department will not conflict with the imperial department. I will make this matter clear to the emperor!"

"Just like what I just said, when something goes wrong, the Ministry of War will naturally have to explain it in person!"

Li Huaiyun interjected, "I'm worried that nothing will happen."

Everyone looked at him.

He explained, "What if this monster was brought by people from the Ministry of War!"

Qin Gang responded, "The Ministry of War took away the body, which means that the Demon Slayer Division will focus on monitoring the Ministry of War and the Imperial City. I don't believe that they only killed a thief without any follow-up."

Li Huaiyun quite agreed with Sikyong's view.

"Go on!"

Li Huaiyun pondered for a moment, "Before, we were tracking down the monsters found in Kyoto and the corpses in the water prison. In both cases, the same thing appeared, which was paper with spells on it. Now we should confirm these two spells first.

, are they of the same species? If so, this may mean that there must be some connection between the two cases!"

"That way, we can follow the two clues and investigate them together, which should get twice the result with half the effort."

"A very good idea!" Qin Gang agreed with this approach and looked at Li Huaiyun expectantly again.

"What a pity! The body was taken away by the Ministry of War," Li Huaiyun said regretfully, "otherwise we could make comparisons immediately."

Liu Pingzhong stood up and said to Li Huaiyun, "Have you seen the spell, can you recall the general structure of the painting inside?"

"Here, remember some specific structure!"

"That's fine, as long as there are a few details, it'll be no problem!" Liu Pingzhong from Tiebi Pavilion said, and he took out a particularly delicate brush from his arms.

The tip of this kind of writing brush is made of a bunch of feathers on the head of a bird that lives in the swamp. The body of the writing brush is made of golden nanmu, with special patterns engraved on it.

He took out another piece of rice paper, spread it on the table nearby, and then said to Li Huaiyun, "You draw the rough shape of the spell, and I can copy the spell in your memory with some details."

Ah! Li Huaiyun was quite surprised by the hall master's ability. Isn't this an ancient version of AI drawing?

"You don't believe it?" Looking at his expression, Liu Pingzhong knew that the other party didn't believe him.

"No, Captain Liu, you misunderstood. My subordinate is just curious. How are you going to copy it?"

“Use your photographic memory to copy!”

"Any pattern will do?"

"That's natural."

Li Huaiyun rubbed his face, raised the corner of his mouth, and muttered, "Then if I take pictures of beautiful women, can you take off your clothes?"

There was a sudden silence in the entire hall.

Liu Pingzhong frowned, thinking what on earth was this guy thinking? It seemed like this guy was a little greedy for beauty.

Li Huaiyun realized that his words were somewhat inappropriate! He immediately explained, "I mean to change into other good-looking clothes."

With an embarrassed smile on his face, he walked to the rice paper, and based on his own memory, he roughly drew the talisman on the skull. Then Liu Pingzhong used the ink-soaked stylus to further perfect the symbols on the rice paper.

Seal.

Looking at Mr. Liu who was waving his brush in front of the rice paper, he became even more curious about this. How did this man do it?

Li Huaiyun took a few steps back, stood next to Qin Gang, cupped his fists and saluted, "Sikyong, may I ask, what's the secret to this?"

"You didn't hear what he said, photographic memory!"

"But Captain Liu has never been to the water prison, nor has he seen that talisman!"

"How do you know he hasn't seen it? I said this guy has a photographic memory. He has read a lot of books. He must have dabbled in books about Taoism, so that he can rely on his memory.

Let’s roughly restore this spell.”

Only then did Li Huaiyun understand what was going on. It turned out to be human brain AI that highlighted a person with a good memory.

Not long after, Liu Pingzhong finally put away his pen, then picked up the paper and put it in front of Sikyong, "I think it's almost done!"

Qin Gang raised his hand and asked Li Huaiyun beside him to take a closer look to see if it was the talisman he saw in the skull.

A Tian also wanted to go up and take a look. After all, he had seen that talisman before. However, he felt that he might not remember it very clearly, so he did not dare to go forward again.

Li Huaiyun leaned over and looked at the spell on the rice paper. It was indeed similar to what he saw.
To be continued...
