Chapter 21 One drink and one peck

The beggar is about his early sixties and is wearing a torn and dirty short jacket. His hair is sparse and curly, his face is covered with temples, his eyes are sunken, and his nose is like an eagle's beak.

The old man's thin hands and feet were shackled and fixed on the wall of the cell with chains. At this time, he hugged his knees and curled up in the corner, staring at his black left big toe and staring at his black left foot in a daze.

This person is the murderer of Wang Meng's case and his beard is blind.

The blind beard lost his left eyeball and there was nothing in his eye socket, which gradually turned into a wound that could not be closed. Sometimes red and white mucus flowed out of it, and he always rubbed his eye holes with his hands. Over time, his left eye socket became swollen and looked like a sarcoma.

The rest of my right eye always squinted, as if I was afraid of light, and I didn’t know if it was uncomfortable or if I was used to looking at people like this.

He was a Hu man, and he was in the West City, lying or leaving, talking nonsense, and no one could understand his nonsense.

The commander in charge of the two cities said that the blind beard came to Shu County five years ago. At that time, his left eye was blind and he had no certificate of vassals and could not confirm his identity.

According to the law, unknown outsiders were expelled from the city. Seeing that he was pitiful and did not look like a villain, the city commander tacitly allowed him to beg in the West City.

The blind beard doesn't speak Chinese, and he just needs to beg. He often sits on the ground, puts a wrinkled cloth in front of him, and mutters in his mouth.

When someone throws cakes or steamed buns, he picks them up and eats them. When no one gives them a gift, he will be hungry. When he is hungry, he will go out of the city to find wild vegetables and bark to eat them.

A blind beard is a little better. No matter how hungry you are, you will not steal or rob.

One winter was very cold. My beard had nothing to eat, and my body was so shriveled that it almost froze to death. It was the horse gang boss Wang who gave him a cotton jacket, a few cakes, and half a pot of wine. My beard finally got over it.

The blind beard is no different from when he came. He can't speak Chinese or ask for help, and stays in the western market in a daze.

Such a person suddenly started attacking and stabbed people in the street, no one would have thought of it.

"This is the weapon."

Xu Shujing lifted a piece of linen cloth and exposed a piece of thin bone inside. This was a shriveled and hard chicken claws, with claws clustered like arrows, sharp and sharp.

"He's sharpened the chicken feet."

He held the short dagger-like chicken claw bone in the partition and stabbed it in front of him: "The movement is fast, ruthless and accurate, and penetrates the heart."

Wu Qi took the weapon from Xu Shujing, and after careful observation, he saw the clues: "Look, this chicken claw has five claws, and the fifth claw is hidden in the four claws."

"Five claws?"

Xu Shujing broke open the chicken's claws and then noticed a small claw inside: "It really is... I remember reading it in a Taoist miscellaneous note that the chicken has four claws. If the fifth claw is born, it will be a spiritual bird, which can ward off evil spirits and exorcise ghosts."

Shu Ran also looked at the blind beard: "Does he know that Wang Meng is a evil spirit?"

"certainly."

Wu Qi said lightly: "This is a Hu alchemist who can use spiritual birds to restrain evil spirits and can also accurately break the Yin lock. You can look at his eyes carefully and cannot see clearly. You can ask him to open it a little wider."

The blind beard in the corner slowly turned his head and narrowed his eyes to look here.

"Can you understand Chinese?" Xu Shujing asked the blind beard.

"Not only can he understand, he can also see, understand everything because he has a pair of special eyes."

Wu Qi looked down at the blind beard on the ground: "The innate yin and yang eyes are not common. This is a magical talent related to bloodline. Usually, it is a generation of alchemists, and only those descendants of the Nascent Soul Cultivator family will be born with it."

The blind beard slowly spreads his eyelids, and his right eye is green, crystal clear and deep, and his pupils are pitch black, like a cat or a tiger. He will feel a wonderful feeling of dizziness when looking at him.

"I don't know what you call me." Wu Qi bowed.

The old beggar stared at Wu Qi, and the jade's right eye was shining with magic light: "Which family is you true? Longhu Mountain or Wudang Mountain?"

The Chinese language blurt out clearly and without any astringency.

"I, Wu Qi, the disciples who entered the house in the Fuyun Temple on Dongshan, did not come from these two great sects."

Wu Qi said calmly.

The true disciple is in the foundation-building stage, and he is still in the early stage of Qi training. He said that the true disciple is just a fool. Of course, the actual combat will be discussed separately.

"What a poisonous eye."

The blind beard seemed to be sighing, and also as if he was upset, he said to himself: "It's a pity... the Jiuyou Mountain martial arts have been lost, which has caused me to enter the worldly world and practice. In order to repay every meal and every dress, I have to waste my time again. The Taoist heart is unstable, and the dust in the world is floating in time, and it is time."

"Boy, I remember you."

As soon as the words were finished, the whole person was gone.

The handcuffs lost their target and hung naturally, and the chains collided and made a string of broken metal sounds.

The three people in the prison looked at each other in front of each other.

Shu Ran's face was solemn: "It's a way to go to the end of the world, shrinking into an inch... This is the method of the Master of the Yuanying! I don't know which senior he is."

Xu Shujing looked at Wu Qi with a hopeful look: "Master, do you know this person's identity?"

"I don't know."

Wu Qi had no choice but to say: "As this senior said, if he hadn't been exposed voluntarily, it wouldn't be a problem to stay in the West City for another five years."

"He stabbed Wang Meng to death to... repay Wang Meng's grace for his food and clothing?"

Xu Shujing frowned: "With this Nascent Soul Senior's ability, he can help Wang Meng get out of trouble directly. Why did he kill him to escape?"

"Mr. Xu is such a bad word."

Relieving his expression was solemn, and his hands were clasped together: "The "Yinsha Soul Locking Sutra" is the leader of the Demon Sect, Jiuyou Mountain, the magic leader. Once you have practiced it, the soul locking the soul is determined. The three chapters that Wang Meng learned are only the first step. If one step is wrong, he can no longer turn around."

"The ancient method of Jiuyou Mountain, at least refines the nine-headed evil spirits, and the soul ropes are connected to each other, so that they can turn nine into one, and their bodies are integrated into corpse puppets. Refining people with the soul rope orders can kill enemies thousands of miles away."

"What's more, there are twenty-five ones, forty-nine, and eighty-ones. These corpse puppets are not afraid of magic, and can also survive the heavenly tribulation. After being refined, even great monks must avoid their sharp edge."

"Locking the soul and practicing the spirit, using the soul as the lock, and using the soul as the weapon, it will be a disaster if it becomes a climate."

Relieved his voice down: "There was an Arhat monk in Shaolin who died at the hands of a corpse puppet."

Xu Shujing realized the horror and danger of "Soul Locking and Practicing the Soul" and murmured: "No wonder that the Nascent Soul Senior did not hesitate to give up his current practice and hide his mind, and also wanted to take action."

Wu Qi nodded: "That's true. If Wang Meng is caught by the monks of Jiuyou Mountain, he will be a corpse puppet that will continue to grow. This senior, Nian Wang Meng, made a good relationship, thus breaking his evil spirit and giving him liberation."

If Wang Meng is caught by the demon cultivator, he will be unable to survive or die.

Death is sometimes not the worst result.

Xu Shujing rubbed his eyebrows and had a headache: "I didn't expect there were so many unexpected problems... I have to re-written the case record this time."

"At least the subject situation is basically determined."

Wu Qi smiled and said, "There is no demon cultivator behind Wang Meng's case, but a senior Nascent Soul cultivator killed the danger early, and the accident caused by Wang Meng's mistaken practice of the demon skills."

At this point, the Wang Meng case has basically been revealed.

However, according to the government procedures, Xu Shujing still needs to continue to ask another suspect Tietou.

Wu Qi originally thought Tietou was a man with a big head or a powerful man who practiced Tietou skills, but he didn't expect Tietou himself to have a fair and calm face, and he looked more like a scholar. Not only Tietou himself, but his followers were also handsome and gentle.

Tietou's real name is Yao Tiecuo. Tiecuo refers to Tie Abacus, but somehow it was spread by rumors, so it turned into Tietu.

Compared to Tiechou, Tiechou is more like the name of a gang soldier. This name has been with Yao Tiechou until now, and he himself likes it very much.

Xu Shujing said: "Yao Dangjia, please cooperate with him for routine inquiries."

"It is natural for the government to investigate the case. I also want to find the real murderer as soon as possible to seek justice for the boss."

Iron head bowed and cooperated very well.

The two of them asked and answered in an orderly manner.

Shu Ran suddenly felt something and looked at Wu Qi: "Fellow Taoist seems to have something to worry about?"

Wu Qixin said, what a keen monk.

He smiled: "I just remembered that I delayed the practice of Senior Nascent Soul, and I felt a little guilty."

"Fellow Taoists don't have to take it to heart. It's common sense to drink and peck."

Wu Qi nodded and said yes.

Of course he wasn't thinking about this.

A moment ago, the Sanqing statue sensed the pilgrim prayer again, and the bamboo demon Xiao Zhang used the body of the banished immortal to let the prayer clearly into Wu Qi's mind...

What's unusual is that the pilgrim is right in front of you.

It is the delicate follower behind Tietou.
