Chapter 59: Punishment

After thinking for a moment, Rong Fei finally gave up the idea of ​​digging the grave and stuck to his bottom line.

It is disrespectful to the deceased to dig up the grave without evidence that the person buried in the grave is related to the case.

Those who are close to vermilion are red, those who are close to ink are black.

After years of contact with dark figures such as gangsters, corpses, and murder cases, the temperaments of most police officers will become vicious, and the moral bottom line in their hearts will become lower and lower.

The final result is to use any means necessary to solve the case.

Because he was a suspense writer in his previous life, Rong Fei had rich theoretical experience, so on the first day he became a police officer, he set some rules for himself to avoid repeating the mistakes of his predecessors.

One of them is to respect the dead.

This is the only one that will not be repeated next time...doing extraordinary things in extraordinary times...excuses such as a man who doesn't stick to trivial matters, etc., are all nonsense in Rong Fei's opinion. This is how people's bottom line is broken bit by bit through forced and expedient measures.

, and finally got used to it.

When a person dies, his debts are extinguished. Regardless of whether he was a good person, a bad person or not a person during his lifetime, Rong Fei will treat the body with the greatest respect possible.

The behavior of digging up graves and exterminating families is an extremely bad behavior in the moral values ​​of the Chinese people, and it should be stabbed in the spine.

The ability to see through a wall is not omnipotent and has certain limitations.

Spiritual hearing cannot filter out noise and accepts all sounds.

Spiritual vision can see things from a distance and detect illusions. However, it cannot observe things in a relatively closed small space.

Observing a small confined space with spiritual consciousness is like shoving something directly in front of your eyes and being blinded by a leaf.

Giving up the idea of ​​digging the grave, Rong Fei dug a hole and buried the body of the mysterious monk to prevent it from being eaten by wild beasts.

Then return to Tanxi Town along the original road.

The key to all problems will ultimately fall on the fourth uncle.



At the same time, five agents including Li Jun, Hou Chunhua and others sneaked into the town, looking for Rong Fei and his six colleagues. Gu Fengxiao, who was exhausted from vomiting, and another agent stayed outside the town.

.

"Ah loach...ah loach..."

"Ancestor, please keep your voice down...ah...ah loach!"

Hou Chunhua was startled by the sneezing sound of the policeman next to him, and quickly reached out to cover his mouth and nose. As a result, he inhaled too hard and couldn't hold back a sneeze.

In order to avoid being confused by the smell of mushrooms, several people followed Li Jun's method and applied his secret medicine on a piece of cloth to cover their mouths and noses.

This method really worked, allowing the five people to enter the town smoothly without being affected by the aroma of dream mushrooms. However, the smell of Li Jun's secret potion was too spicy. While keeping his mind clear, it also kept irritating his nasal cavity.

It makes people want to sneeze uncontrollably.

The sound of sneezing echoed in the quiet town, something was disturbed in the surrounding yards, and the sound of shuffling footsteps could be heard.

The arrests quickly found a secluded place to hide.

Harsh creaking sounds sounded one after another, and the courtyard doors opened one after another.

The police officers secretly looked outside, and under the moonlight, they saw people with strange postures walking out of the yard.

These people's bodies are crooked and covered with gray-white threads. They stagger when they walk, and it feels like a gust of wind can blow them over.

The face not covered by the thread-like objects is even more frightening, with sunken eye sockets, skin and bones, and missing teeth, exactly like the ghost described in the Zhiyi storybook.

Such a weird and terrifying scene made all the arresters' expressions change and their hearts tremble.

Could this be the Jiuyou Underworld?

"Da da da da da..."

Because of the fear of the unknown, two detectives were so frightened that their teeth chattered. Although their voices were soft, they still revealed their hiding places in the silent environment.

The ghost-like figures all turned their heads to look this way, with a strange red light shining in their deep-set eye sockets.

At this point, Li Jun gritted his teeth and rushed out of the hiding place first, pulled out his sword with a clang and roared.

"Afraid of bird eggs, I chopped down these evil creatures."

The others also knew that since they couldn't escape, they might as well give it a try and muster up the courage to rush out and draw their swords to chop.

"Please show mercy!"

The arresters were about to slash at the nearest ghost with their knives, when an old voice came from their side.

An old man came over shakily, leaning on a cane.

Li Jun saw that the old man's face was normal and there were no threads covering his body. At the same time, the ghosts stopped moving after the old man appeared. He raised his hand to signal the arresters not to act rashly, and then shouted to the old man.

"Who are you? Where do these ghosts come from, and how do they relate to you? Tell the truth quickly, otherwise you will not blame me for being ruthless."

"Please calm down, I am the mayor of this town. These are not ghosts, they are all good people of this town."

The old man was his fourth uncle, and he waved his hands to Li Jiong and explained.

"Common people? Huh, you're bluffing me!"

"They are really common people. If you don't believe me, you can feel their chests and their heartbeats, and their mouths and noses are breathing."

Li Jun and Hou Chunhua looked at each other. For a moment, they couldn't tell whether what the old man said was true or false, and they didn't dare to go and check it out.

"Since he is a living person, why does he look like this?"

Hou Chunhua shouted and asked.

"What I don't know is that these people have suffered from a strange disease and become this inhuman and ghostly appearance, but they are indeed alive."

The fourth uncle sighed with a sad face.

"Strange disease? What strange disease?"

"The little old man doesn't know, but people who are infected with this strange disease will...become like wild beasts, biting people and eating flesh and blood. In desperation, the little old man can only use the ancestral prescription.

, turn them into this."

Is there such a strange disease in the world?

The arresters could not tell whether what the old man said was true or false, and for a moment they were a little confused as to what to do.

After a moment of silence, Li Jun asked again.

"Can anyone else come into town before I wait?"

Putting these weird things aside for now, the top priority is to find the whereabouts of Rong Fei and six other colleagues as soon as possible.

"It turns out that two groups of policemen have entered the town. The two policemen in the first group have disappeared, and the six policemen in the second group are resting in a courtyard."

"Take me there quickly."

As the fourth uncle came to the courtyard, he saw six colleagues lying on the ground and sleeping soundly in the dilapidated house.

Li Jiong, Hou Chunhua and others tried to wake them up, but no matter how hard they slapped their faces and called their names, there was no response from the six of them.

"Old thief, is this a good thing you did?"

One of the detectives pulled out his sword, put the blade on the fourth uncle's neck and shouted sternly.

The fourth uncle was so frightened that he collapsed on his knees and stammered an explanation.

"Don't misunderstand me. How can I do this when I can't bear my shoulders or lift my hands? The town is filled with a miasma that makes people mad. In order to prevent these men from turning into monsters that are neither human nor ghosts, they

Let them eat some moonlight grass that can relieve the miasma. As long as we take a few bad guys out of the town, the medicinal properties of the moonlight grass will be eliminated in a few days and they will be able to regain consciousness."

Although the six colleagues were unconscious, their lives were not in danger for the time being, and the old man's demeanor did not seem to be fake, so the arrests believed him.

Hou Chunhua poked Li Jiong's waist and whispered in his ear.

"Other than Xiao Gu, you are the one with the brightest mind. What should you do now when you have an idea?"

The six detectives who had gone to the town earlier had found Rongfei, but there was still no trace of him. Hou Chunhua was a little confused for a while. He didn't know what to do next, so he could only ask Li Jiong for his opinion.

Li Jiong pondered for a moment and decided to send these six unconscious colleagues outside the town first, and then turn back and continue looking for Rong Fei.

Hou Chunhua nodded when he heard this, glared at his fourth uncle fiercely, warned him not to play tricks, and then called on all the arrests to carry the six sleeping colleagues out of the town.

When Li Jiong walked out of the courtyard, he felt a gentle breeze blowing against his face.

A leaf was blown by the wind and stuck to Li Jiong's face.

Li Jiong raised his hand to take off the leaves and was about to throw them away, but he vaguely saw something on the leaves. He then calmly held the leaves in his hands and hurried away with the others.

Waiting for the arrests from the Ji Xian Division to go away, the fourth uncle who had been kneeling on the ground stood up tremblingly, rubbed his sore knees and let out a sigh.

"Why am I sighing?"

Rong Fei smiled, put his hands behind his back, stepped across the threshold and entered the small courtyard, stood six feet in front of his fourth uncle and asked.

"It turns out to be Mr. Immortal. Several immortals came to look for you just now. I think they haven't gone far yet, so I will go and call them."

With that said, the fourth uncle went to call someone on crutches.

"There is no need to trouble my husband about this matter. Mr. Rong will handle it on his own."

Rong Fei stretched out his hand to stop his fourth uncle.

"My father-in-law hasn't answered the question just now. Why are you lamenting?"

"well!"

When the fourth uncle heard this, he sighed again and pointed to the stone table and bench in the yard.

"It's a long story. Please take a seat and let me tell you slowly."

The two sat opposite each other on the stone bench. The fourth uncle held the head of his staff with both hands and looked sideways at the night sky, his eyes full of regret and misery.

"The origin of the matter can be traced back to forty years ago. The town made a living by picking herbs and cutting down and selling fragrant trees. Although life was not rich, it did not worry about food and clothing.

However, as the herbs and fragrant trees in the front mountain disappeared, the townspeople gradually lost their food and clothing. In desperation, they had no choice but to go into the back mountain against their ancestors' instructions.

As long as I can remember, the elders in the town have always reminded me that the dense forest under the cliff at the back of the mountain belongs to the mountain god, and no one is allowed to disturb it without permission, otherwise he will be punished.

But at that time, the townspeople were almost out of food, but they didn't care much, so they broke into the back mountain in groups. As expected, countless treasures grew up in the back mountain that no one had set foot on for hundreds of years.

The townspeople were overjoyed with the medicinal herbs and towering fragrant trees, and even forgot their ancestral teachings.

One day, several young men encountered a seriously injured and comatose woman while collecting medicine in the forest, so they took the woman back to the town for treatment.

Little did they know that that woman was the mountain god’s punishment for the townspeople for desecrating their territory.”
