Chapter 70 Water Tank Human Skin
Watching Qimeng gradually walk away until she leaves her sight, I do not leave. I want to figure out the real purpose of Wuquan and termite killing and peeling. They were anxious just now, and maybe they could find clues about their loss in this factory.
When I thought about this, I first found a backpack in the car outside the yard and carried it on my back.
Then I turned around and walked back. There was a compartment inside the factory. I pushed open the door and walked in. I almost slipped down when I stepped on it. When I looked down, I saw that the ground seemed to have just been washed with water and it was very wet.
The light inside the house was very dark, and all the windows were covered with thick curtains. I found the switch to turn on the light and found that there were huge water tanks placed there.
These water tanks are all black, and the cylinder block is painted with yellow paint, which I can't understand at all. They are similar to runes. The top of the water tank is covered by a wooden board, and square iron blocks are pressed on it.
I roughly estimated that in this 100 square meters house, there were thirty or forty identical water tanks.
What exactly are these water tanks used for? Why are there so many? What is there? I thought of these questions in my mind and walked towards the nearest water tank.
When I walked closer, I took away the iron block on the water tank and moved the wooden board on it. I looked into the water tank and almost vomited it out!
The water tank contains a white human skin!
The human skin's face faced me faced upwards. The empty skin was full of wrinkles. The skin had been soaked with the potion in the water tank, and the hair was swollen. Under the human skin, a poisonous snake was swimming around in the water.
Snakes wear human skin!
I opened another water tank again, exactly the same as the one I just saw.
I opened another one and it was still the same. Only now did I realize that all the skins of the dead were put here.
At the same time, this also shows that the number of victims is far more than we know. If we cannot receive reports, it is very likely that it will occur in some remote areas, and even the whole family will be wiped out and peeled.
But why did Wu Quantum and termites do this?
It is impossible for them to put the peeled human skin in these water tanks filled with potions and poisonous snakes for no reason. There must be some reasons and attempts in this.
Squatting down, I looked at the runes on the water tank and remembered the general appearance in my mind.
At this moment, I heard car tire noise coming from the yard outside the factory.
I opened a curtain and looked out the window. Two police cars came to the yard. Shi Zilong, the leader of the strange case team, took the lead and was running quickly towards the factory.
Shi Zilong brought people to save me and Qimeng, but he came with the detective. The victim's skin was found, and he could just arrange for someone to take back.
Shi Zilong rushed in with his man and raised his gun. After seeing me standing inside, he hurriedly waved to the detective behind him and shouted:
"Please note that this is your own person, don't shoot!"
Shi Zilong said, running towards me, his face full of worry and self-blame.
"Wang Cheng, are you okay? I just saw the noodle shop owner on the road and had arranged someone to send her back safely."
I looked at Shi Zilong and shook my head:
"Team leader Shi, I'm fine, but I have to tell you something."
"What's the matter?" Shi Zilong asked.
“那自称白居易的凶手,所杀害的人数,恐怕远超你我的想象.”我盯着身前的水缸说道.
After hearing my words, Shi Zilong immediately reacted and looked into the water tank.
When he saw the human skin in the water tank clearly, he hurriedly called someone over.
While Shi Zilong and the Criminal Police Team were dealing with dozens of water tanks, I found the "Ceramic Soul Seal Record" from my backpack, hoping to find a record of the evil magic of placing human skin on the water tank.
But when I was disappointed, I searched through the entire book "Ceramic Soul Seal" and found no record of this kind of evil magic.
As soon as he put away the "Ceramic Soul Seal Record", Shi Zilong walked towards me with an old detective who looked over fifty years old.
"Old Xing, let me introduce you to you. This is Wang Cheng that I mentioned to you before."
The old detective named Lao Xing looked me up and down for a long time before looking at me and asked:
"Wang Cheng? You can use art?"
"Can you know a little bit." I replied.
"What kind of tricks are you borrowing?" Lao Xing continued to ask.
"Borrow porcelain and dry soil." I said.
"Jiuyan's apprentice?" After hearing this, Old Xing guessed that I was Jiuyan's apprentice.
It seems that my master is so famous that as soon as I mention porcelain and dry soil, they will immediately think of my master.
I had nodded and said:
"That's right, Jiuyan is my master."
"I heard that you are planning to join Shi Zilong's strange case investigation team now?" Old Xing's turbid eyes kept staring at me.
"Yes, I have this plan." In fact, when Qimeng was captured, I began to regret joining the strange case investigation team, and even hated that Shi Zilong dragged me into the water.
But I think that Shi Zilong really cared about my safety, my grandfather and Qi Meng, otherwise he would never have been able to find me in such a short time.
Moreover, after I learned about the real murderer of the 3568 case, my regret had disappeared, and instead strengthened my determination to join the strange case investigation team.
Because Wuliangzi is not only a murderer, but also my enemy. I dreamt that I would kill him with my own hands to avenge my sister!
"By the way, Lao Xing, have you seen something? What happened to the human skins and poisonous snakes put in the water tank?" Shi Zilong said as he took out a cigarette and handed it to Lao Xing.
Old Xing took the cigarette from Shi Zilong's hand, lit it and took a sip, then said:
"Legendary: A thousand years ago, there was a princess Aogu who used the seven-star life-sustaining lamp to renew her life for one century after her death. Many people only know that Princess Aogu used the seven-star life-sustaining lamp, but there was another even more terrifying technique that was unknown to ordinary people."
"What kind of magic?" Shi Zilong asked.
"The snake wears human skin, and the white tiger raises its head! Borrowing ninety-nine poisonous snakes wearing human skin as a life guide, and then extending their life with the white tiger's head, it can ensure that the body of a person will not be corrupted for thousands of years after death. After a thousand years of death, the soul cultivation will be five ghosts, which will last forever between heaven and earth, and will never die!" Old Xing said this, spit out a mouthful of white smoke, staring at the water tanks filled with skin, thinking about it, and no longer saying anything...
The seven-star life-sustaining lamp can last a lifetime for one century, while the snake wears human skin and the white tiger raises its head, which can also allow the soul after death to become a five-directional ghost, thus staying forever in the world. Is the Immortal and Termites killing and peeling people, preparing for their future death, or for the Princess Aogu who has been dead for thousands of years?
I think it should be the latter, because when I was a child, I heard Wuliangzi shouting at Sanhegou: You should wake up after so many years of upsetting the river!
