The three corpses were covered with white cloth, and Uncle Jiu stepped forward to uncover them one by one.
Huang Laosan's face still looked like a human being, but the faces of the other two corpses had turned into red and swollen pig heads, and even the mother could not recognize them when she came.
Uncle Jiu glanced at Xu Ping, who smiled awkwardly.
Uncle Jiu continued to lift the white cloth and looked down.
Without exception, the three corpses had been disemboweled, and their chests and lower abdomens were empty, with visible muscles and blood inside, which had dried and solidified.
It was also the first time that Xu Ping saw the corpses of the three people, so he stepped forward and took a look.
The impact on his senses was too strong, making him feel a little uncomfortable.
But the next second, he sniffed and discerned a special smell from the fishy smell.
"What a naughty monster."
Uncle Jiu turned around after hearing this: "Shopkeeper Xu, did you smell it too?"
Xu Ping nodded: "It should be the work of a monster."
Listening to their conversation, only Ah Wei looked confused. Although he was a little disgusted, he still covered his mouth and nose and stepped forward, asking in a trembling voice: "Uncle Jiu, what are you talking about?"
The reason why my voice was trembling was because of the cold.
In this environment, people like Xu Ping and Jiu Shu, who have strong cultivation, have not lost their Yang Yuan, and have sufficient fire energy, do not shiver from the cold.
Uncle Jiu covered the body with a white cloth, his expression even more solemn, "If our guess is correct, it is a monster that is killing the people."
"Monster?!" Ah Wei's male duck voice was extremely thin, but soon, he discovered another bright spot: "We?"
He turned to look at Xu Ping and asked in surprise: "You know how to do these mysterious things?"
"Yeah, a little bit." Xu Ping said casually.
The monster was making trouble. Uncle Jiu was concerned about the people around him and said in a deep voice: "Awei, we must find that monster as soon as possible and find out its origin and details."
"good!"
Ah Wei agreed immediately and then asked, "How to find it?"
Uncle Jiu shook his head and sighed: "Of course we have to arrange manpower and search all over the mountains and plains."
Wishing to leave here as soon as possible, Ah Wei walked out as soon as he heard this. Since he didn't have to go up the mountain to look for it himself, it was better to let his subordinates do such a dangerous job.
Xu Ping took a step forward: "Don't go to such trouble, I have a solution."
Uncle Jiu was stunned and looked over in surprise.
When Awei heard what he said, he said angrily: "Uncle Jiu said that you can only go up the mountain to find it, so don't act like a big-tailed wolf here. Ask Uncle Jiu if he listens to you or to him."
."
"I listen to shopkeeper Xu."
Although Uncle Jiu didn't know what he could do, he still stood by Xu Ping's side.
Awei was speechless immediately. Xu Ping just looked at him without saying anything. He just looked at him and made him feel scared. Then he said weakly: "Then I will listen to Uncle Jiu."
Only then did Xu Ping laugh with satisfaction, and turned to Uncle Jiu and said: "Uncle Jiu, I...my master once taught me a secret method that can use other people's blood to deduce the hiding place of this person.
However, I need to borrow your charity village for use."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Jiu nodded directly and agreed: "Shopkeeper Xu, don't be cautious. It just so happens that I can also experience the magic of my senior."
In fact, the secret method Xu Ping talked about was the method of tracing people recorded in the "Three Life Tonghui".
As a book of fortune-telling, it not only records fortune-telling and fortune-telling, but also records many divination techniques for predicting the future.
Among them is a technique that specializes in divining other people's hiding places.
It doesn't matter whether it's a living person or a corpse, it's all the same.
comprehend by analogy.
The same goes for divination in reverse. If the body is partially mutilated, as long as there are complete fragments, the location of other fragments can still be calculated through the blood.
Since the monster has dug away the internal organs, even if it is swallowed into the stomach, as long as it is not completely digested and is excreted as feces, there will be a sense of it.
And depending on the completeness of the corpse, if the monster really likes to eat human offal, it can just eat them to pieces, there is no need to dig them up carefully.
It can't be that the monster doesn't eat raw food and likes to eat hot pot with human offal.
Therefore, Xu Ping speculated that the internal organs of Huang Laosan and others must still be intact somewhere.
As long as the location of the internal organs is calculated by divination, the monster can be found naturally.
Without further ado,
Xu Ping and Jiu Shu hurried to Yizhuang.
Ah Wei thought about it for three seconds, led a big black dog, and followed them to Yizhuang.
The black dog is not for tracking, but for bleeding. The blood of the black dog can defeat evil spirits, and he finally became smart for once.
…
The bright moonlight spreads like frost.
In the Yizhuang courtyard.
The candle flames swayed in the wind, and remained strong despite being swept by the night wind.
Every magical weapon on the altar was just a decoration, and Xu Ping couldn't use any of it.
However, Uncle Jiu is quite stubborn. He believes that since it is a practice, it must open a forum. This is the rule.
Regardless of whether it is used or not, the posture must be sufficient.
In front of the altar, there are seven or eight Kongming lanterns.
Qiu Sheng went back to his aunt's house to sleep.
Uncle Jiu and Wen Cai were quietly watching and working part-time.
Ah Wei is killing the dog.
Amid the whine of the big black dog, everything was ready. Xu Ping took out a piece of black cloth from his pocket and spread it out.
What was wrapped in the black cloth was the coagulated blood scraped from the stomachs of the three corpses in the morgue.
Xu Ping shook his little hand, and the dirty blood on the black cloth flew into the air and flew into the earthen jar filled with strong wine on the altar.
A cloud of black smoke rose from the earthen jar. Xu Ping muttered something in his mouth and poked the jar with his sword. The black smoke that had just risen was immediately pressed into the jar.
The dirty blood and strong wine were mixed together, and the earthen jar exuded a fishy stench.
The originally clear spirit also turned blood red at this time.
Xu Ping circulated his true energy, intercepted a cluster of flames from the candle, and threw it into the earthen jar.
"Wow!"
Suddenly, a faint flame ignited in the earthen jar, and the flames shot out of the mouth of the earthen jar, reaching one meter into the sky. The blazing flames glowed crimson, looking extremely strange.
Seeing this, Uncle Jiu frowned and thought a little.
Ask the Kong Ming Lantern to search for the corpse, and he can do it, but he has to extract the spirit body of the wronged soul as a guide to achieve it.
This was the first time he had seen this method of using only blood, so he couldn't help but feel a little surprised, and he watched more intently.
"yawn"
During the long night, Wen Cai felt sleepy and couldn't help but yawn.
Uncle Jiu looked helpless and scolded: "Literary talents, study hard."
Wen Cai looked gloomy and complained: "Master, I can't learn."
Experts watch it with gusto, but laymen watch it with drowsiness.
Seeing that Ah Wei hadn't taken care of the big black dog until now, Wen Cai thought it might be more interesting, so he said, "Master, I'd better go and help drain the dog's blood."
Uncle Jiu shook his head helplessly: "Go ahead."
After saying that, he turned around and continued to watch Xu Ping's next actions.
Unexpectedly, Uncle Jiu could not help but be stunned when he saw this, his face showed a look of shock, as if he had been struck by lightning.
"It seems that I can't learn it either."
Uncle Jiu muttered to himself, but even so, he remained calm and nodded frequently, making others think he understood.
The man is on the left and the woman is on the right. Xu Ping stretches out his left hand and counts continuously.
This is not random pinching. It is different from the usual divination using heavenly stems and earthly branches. He is arranging the heaven, earth and human disk on his fingers.
This is why the Three Lives Conference came about.
Not long after, Xu Ping finished his calculations and murmured:
"The mountains and rivers are covered with mountains and rivers."
"Beside the mountains and rivers, the incense is lingering, the mountains meet, and the land transportation is smooth."
Having learned the hexagrams and comments, he immediately pinched his left thumb hard and his nails pierced the skin.
A drop of blood flew out from the fingertips, slowly rose into the air, and flew towards the earthen jar on the altar.
"boom!"
The blood seemed to be floating, but it seemed to contain a huge force, and it instantly shattered the jar into pieces.
The fragments flew everywhere, but the bloody spirit stayed on the altar like a burning blood ball.
Xu Ping put his palms together, his sword finger hanging in front of his chest, shouted loudly, and stabbed the burning blood ball:
"Edict!"
Immediately, the flaming blood ball exploded into pieces, splitting into eight trickling streams, which went straight into the eight Kongming Lanterns.
There was another "boom" sound, and the Kongming lantern lit up with faint flames. The Kongming lantern with the Eight Diagrams talismans carved on it began to slowly rise into the sky and float towards the west.
Uncle Jiu was extremely shocked, with a look of horror on his face.
The perfect fusion of Kongming lantern and divination, such a wonderful technique, is definitely not something that ordinary monks can think of and do.
The look he looked at Xu Ping had become a little awe-inspiring.
Who is this young man and the master behind him?
honestly.
With just this one move, Uncle Jiu, no, the whole of Maoshan was convinced.
Xu Ping was about to chase the Kong Ming Lantern, but found that Uncle Jiu was stunned on the spot, looking at him without moving at all. He couldn't help but urge: "Uncle Jiu, why are you still standing there?"
Uncle Jiu woke up as if from a dream, and did not rush to chase the Kongming Lantern. Instead, he smiled and said: "Well, Xiao Xu, if you have a chance, introduce your master to me."
"Uh..." Xu Ping was speechless. My master is myself, how can I introduce it to you?
He smiled at Uncle Jiu and said casually: "Next time, definitely next time."
