The saber-toothed beast that Zongyan killed at the beginning was eaten by everyone, but the skin was peeled off and made into a mattress. Not long after, Youjin was injured. His right calf was sore when it rained.
Lord Youfeng gave him this precious fur, which not only commended him for his meritorious service, but also represented the tribe's support for him.
Could it be that the problem lies in this mattress, and what kind of magic did Yu Jin learn from it? Master Youfeng quickly ordered: "Bring the fur quickly for inspection by the two adults!"
Someone went to Youjin's house and took the mattress from the bed. The fur was neatly cut, about one foot long and six feet wide. The texture looked like luxurious tiger skin. Shancha rolled the fur into a roll.
Putting it in his hand, he muttered: "There is indeed something wrong with this object. It seems to be involved in an inexplicable existence of invisible energy. If it is touched for a long time, it may infiltrate the mind. It is also a strange magic weapon."
Ziqiu asked: "When we were investigating the scene where A Hong was killed, we found tiger paw prints. Can this be worn and turned into a tiger?"
Shan Cha: "The person who left the Qi in this thing is more advanced than me. I am still unable to fully understand its magical function in my eagerness, but that should be the case."
Ziqiu took the fur and said, "You Jin is not a monk and is already disabled. How can you control such a magic weapon?"
Shan Cha replied: "It's not that he controls the magic weapon, but that he is controlled by it. It doesn't take a day or two for this thing to infiltrate the mind. If you sleep on it occasionally, it's not really a big problem. If you are concerned about your mind,
For those who are tolerant, it is not so easy to be infected. But for those who are intolerant, if they are exposed to it for a long time, their minds will be inexplicably affected, and they will turn into living creatures if they wear it..."
Everyone didn't quite understand the conversation between the two adults, but they probably understood what they were talking about. It turned out that this piece of fur was weird, and it could turn into a living creature when you put it on. It was probably a tiger-like monster, right? All
The man retreated further to the side, not daring to get closer to You Jin.
Ziqiu threw the fur in front of Youjin and shouted: "The truth is out, Youjin, why don't you plead guilty?"
The fur fell on the open ground and unfolded. You Jin couldn't believe his eyes. It was not convenient for him to bring this fur with him when he came here just now. He thought that no one would be able to find out the truth. Unexpectedly, everything was exposed by Ziqiu and Shancha, but no one could find out the truth.
Thinking that Master Ziqiu had thrown this fur in front of him again, this was a rare opportunity!
A ferocious look flashed in Youjin's eyes, and he pounced forward, rolling on the fur. When he stood up, he had transformed into a colorful tiger, and with a roar, he jumped into the air towards Ziqiu on the high platform.
Now that the matter has been revealed, Youjin wants to escape with the help of his magical power. Crossing the high platform is the best escape route. Before escaping, he has to deal with this bad guy Ziqiu. It is best to bite his head into pieces!
However, the tiger did not pounce on Ziqiu. Shancha had already dodged in front of Ziqiu and punched him in the air. The tiger, which pounced in mid-air, seemed to have received a heavy blow on the forehead. It lowered its head, did not extend its claws, and did not extend its buttocks.
But Shancha raised his tail and flew upright. Shancha changed his fist into claws, grabbed the back of the tiger's neck, and shook it with all his strength.
Just with a pop, Youjin was shaken out and fell down the stage, and the fur was caught in Shancha's hands. All this happened in the blink of an eye, everyone present burst into an uproar, and Lord Youfeng on the high platform
He was so frightened that he fell to the ground. Ziqiu pulled Youfeng up and shouted loudly: "Don't panic, everyone, the villain has been subdued and captured!"
Looking at You Jin, who was so disgraced from the fall that he was lying on the ground and kowtowing repeatedly: "Sir, please forgive me! ... I am innocent, it was the tiger skin that harmed others!"
Ziqiu and Shancha looked at each other and nodded slightly. Now there was no need to interrogate or find any more evidence. The whole village had seen it with their own eyes. The tiger skin just now was thrown away intentionally by Ziqiu.
What was in front of Youjin was to expose him. But Shancha, as an auspicious beast, couldn't deal with a lackey wearing tiger skin?
If something like this hadn't come out, and Nayujin had denied it, there really wouldn't be any good way to provide ironclad evidence. This tiger skin can indeed turn people into slaves. Do we need to find another person to test it? And
Not to mention that we can't afford to delay it for a few months, nor can we harm another person for no reason.
Shan Cha also felt very satisfied with himself. This time, he did not rely on his innate supernatural powers as a Haechi, but used ordinary people's methods to investigate this mysterious case, and the evidence was irrefutable.
Everyone was quiet, and no one dared to talk nonsense for a while. Only a few children who didn't know what happened were still crying. Ziqiu looked down at You Jin and said: "Since you have confessed on the spot, then confess it properly.
.Tell everyone, what is all this going on?"
Youjin cried bitterly and began to tell his sutra, and while confessing, he quietly recalled. After he got this tiger skin, he used it as a mattress to sleep under him, and then he gradually began to have strange dreams.
There was always a voice in his dreams that seemed to want to tell him something. He couldn't remember it when he woke up at first, but then he gradually entered a trance state and "understood" something inexplicably. Wearing this tiger skin
, you can transform into a tiger and possess powerful power.
One day, Youjin had another dream. In the dream, he really transformed into a ferocious tiger. He could run silently like the wind. He was so strong and powerful that he could jump up a cliff several feet high.
When he woke up, he found himself lying in the mountains with the tiger skin next to him. It turned out that all this was not a dream. Youjin felt very scared for a time, because the mind in the dream was not clear and only retained a weak
Instinctively, I felt extremely tired afterwards, as if my body had been hollowed out.
But after quietly returning home, he missed the feeling in the dream very much. The tiger was so strong and fast, as if it had invincible power, but he usually struggled to even walk. And this experience seemed like a dream but not a dream.
After that, he found that he had somehow mastered the method of using this tiger skin. A few days later, feeling that his body was almost recovered, he took the initiative to put on the tiger skin again.
This time, he sneaked into a neighboring village and ate a person, Niu Dan, whom he hated most. Niu Dan was now the hunting leader of the Youfeng tribe. When he regained consciousness, he felt a little scared, but in his heart
It's more of a kind of crazy pleasure. So what if Niudan becomes the leader of the hunt? He won't be eaten by himself!
Yujin also had an intuition. After swallowing the cow eggs, his weakened vitality seemed to be made up a lot. There was a second time after the first time. Every time he put on the tiger skin, he felt full of strength, deep in his heart.
I have an inexplicable urge that is getting stronger and stronger, and I always want to vent it uncontrollably.
Youjin is not crazy, he just loses control after putting on the tiger skin. Whenever he "takes off" the tiger skin, his mind is clear and his thoughts become more and more careful. He also knows that this secret must not be revealed.
People discovered that the targets chosen for the "crime" at first were all people from other villages, and at the same time, they carefully avoided the period when there were inspections by senior officials.
The more times you put on the tiger skin, the more comfortable you become in controlling this treasure. For example, this time recently, he could first drive Ahong to the wild forest far away from the village, and then take off the tiger skin.
After letting off some steam, he put on a tiger skin and ate it, carefully erasing all "human" footprints.
Not to mention that no one could find that place, even if he was found by chance, he would soon think that Ahong was snatched away by a beast in the mountains. He never expected that Ziqiu and Shancha would come the next day.
When the villagers called him over, You Jinben was a little panicked, but he quickly calmed down. He didn't think anyone could find out his secret. Moreover, his experience over such a long period of time made his mentality change a lot.
, no longer pay attention to the ordinary people around him. As for what happened next, there is no need to confess.
Youjin did not tell all the truth. He even claimed to be innocent. Although he confessed the crimes he committed, he claimed that he was harmed by the tiger skin. Every time he committed a crime, he was controlled by the tiger skin.
He was unconscious, couldn't help himself, and didn't even know what happened. The culprit was the tiger skin, and Lord Youfeng who gave him the tiger skin was actually harming him unintentionally.
After listening to the confession, Ziqiu asked: "Youjin, are you conscious at this moment?"
Youjin lowered his head and said: "Sober up." Of course he was sober, otherwise how could he have made such a confession and begged for mercy.
Ziqiu asked again: "If it is true as you said, why was the first person you ate the cow's eggs that you thought you had a grudge against? Later on, all those ten people were killed by you, and the most recent ones were killed by you.
It happens to be A Hong and his wife. If you really don’t know what you are doing, how could it be such a coincidence?"
Youjin kowtows and says: "Your Majesty, it's true! Every time I put on the tiger skin, I really don't know what I'm doing. All of this is just a coincidence... Moreover, I have also eaten food that has no grudge against me."
People!"
Ziqiu sighed and said: "This is not a coincidence, it is just the desire in your heart. The incarnation of a ferocious beast has limited intelligence, but your daily desires are clear, and you know what you want to do instinctively. Not to mention these, if you are the third
It was unintentional to put on the tiger skin once, but you will regain your consciousness afterwards, just as you are awake at the moment and know what will happen after putting on the tiger skin. Then after you hurt the first person, you will put on the tiger skin again and hurt others again.
It’s a capital crime!”
Ziqiu didn't worry about whether Youjin was insane after putting on the tiger skin and whether he knew what he was doing, just like he couldn't fully explain to the villagers the strange magic contained in the skin and what was behind it.
What happened? But he convicted You Jin in just one sentence.
Since he was conscious after taking off the tiger skin and knew what he would do when he put on the tiger skin, then if Jin decided to put on the tiger skin again, it would be a death penalty. Lord Youfeng asked tremblingly.
: "Two adults, what should I do with You Jin?"
Ziqiu: "I just want to find out the truth. As for this person, of course it is up to your tribe to deal with it yourself, but don't execute him here, drag him away!"
Youjin knelt down and screamed, begging for mercy, but he was forcibly dragged out of the village by the villagers who came over. Before he could be dragged out of the village, he had already died, and he was hit by countless fists, feet, sticks, and flying objects.
Come in big and small rocks.
After Youjin died, Master Youfeng asked Ziqiu again: "What should I do with this animal skin?"
Ziqiu asked: "What do you think?" (To be continued...)
