Chapter 1229 Incident
And this time, the Wu family’s turmoil also involved a group of evil antiquities. If there was no connection between these three things, Jiang Cheng would definitely not believe it.
He had a feeling that these antiquities were just an opportunity, and the real purpose was to expose the evil behind these cases.
The next second, Jiang Cheng seemed to be feeling something and turned the newspaper over. Sure enough, there was a report printed on the back of the newspaper, and his eyes accurately captured a location where there was also a black frame. , there are three words in the box: Corpse Sacrifice Platform.
Just seeing these three words, Jiang Cheng felt chills running down his spine for no reason. Fatty couldn't help but tighten his throat when he saw it, and at the same time lowered his voice: "The last time we saw the newspaper, the front page headline It’s the Roman Hotel fire case related to the mirror of the underworld. The back of the newspaper is about the "Ghost Horse Picture". This time..."
Jiang Cheng fully understood what the fat man meant. This time, the headline on the front page was changed to the news of "Ghost Horse Picture", and there was a corpse sacrificial table on the back. The logic was exactly the same as before.
Corpse Sacrifice Table... As you can tell from the name, it is an evil thing. It seems that this so-called Corpse Sacrifice Table is the opportunity that led to the Wu family tragedy. It comes from the Blood Corpse Tomb and is an evil artifact that needs to be suppressed with coffin wood. That’s it!
After being separated from the boy, Jiangcheng Fatty wandered aimlessly in the town. After struggling for a long time, the Fatty picked up the newspaper and asked in a low voice: "Doctor, what is in the newspaper...should we tell other people?"
Jiang Cheng is aware of Fatty’s concerns. This time is different from the past. Not only may there be someone who knows their identity hidden among the teammates, there may also be a ghost with unknown abilities lurking. Hiding some key information may be the key to their future comeback. capital.
The newspaper report about the corpse altar not only mentions the name, but also partially reflects the Wu family. However, many of the contents need to be interpreted based on clues, which they cannot do yet.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Cheng shook his head, "No, it's not necessary. Based on the standards of these people, do you think that if we don't hand over the newspaper, they will have no other way to obtain it?"
"Also, this mission The danger is extremely dangerous. If the team has more information, everyone's chance of survival will increase accordingly. And regarding this corpse altar, neither you nor I are experts in this area, not even We don’t even know what it looks like. This kind of clue is almost useless if it is left in our hands, but it will be different if it is given to Luo Tianhe. There may be unexpected discoveries.”
“However. Fatty, your starting point is right, and I have made great progress. Many times, without you, it would be difficult for me to survive the mission alone." Jiang Cheng said sincerely.
Hearing the seriousness in Jiang Cheng's tone, the fat man suddenly became a little embarrassed: "No, doctor, please don't say that. Doctor, you are so thoughtful. If you hadn't been willing to take me, I would have been on my first mission. Just hang up.”
“I hope we can get out safely this time.” Jiang Cheng’s expression was not as optimistic as before.
The town was bigger than expected. Fatty Jiangcheng walked slowly along the main street. At noon, he found a good restaurant for a big meal. It was almost 3 o'clock in the afternoon before he walked back slowly.
Back at the tea stall where several people had arranged to meet, there were already people waiting inside.
Ding Zhenzong, Lin Qianqian, Luo Tianhe, Yuan Shanyuan, and Bai Yu are back. Among them, Luotianhe, Ding Zhenzong, and Lin Qianqian are sitting at one table, while Yuan Shanyuan and Bai Yu are sitting on the other side. On the table.
"The only two left are Yao, Shun Yu and Li Bai. They set off together." Lin Qianqian's pleasant voice came, as if she was implying something.
Jiang Cheng ignored her at all and sat down with the fat man.
Ding Zhenzong was a guy who couldn't hold his breath. He put his hands on the table and asked in a low but urgent voice: "How is it, Brother Jiang and Brother Wang, what have you found?"
Jiang Cheng didn't do it either. Hiding it, he took out the newspaper and spread it on the table. When he saw the newspaper, Yuan Shanyuan couldn't help but walked forward with Bai Yu. At this moment, everyone was really gathered at the same table.
After reading the information in the newspaper, Ding Zhenzong couldn't help but take a breath, and his expression immediately became strange, "The corpse table..."
Lin Qianqian looked up very sensibly. Luo Tianhe's attitude was quite polite, "Mr. Luo, you are a physiognomist, do you know what this corpse altar is?"
Luo Tianhe stared at the report in the newspaper and was silent for a moment before slowly speaking: "The corpse sacrifice table does not refer to a certain thing, it only refers to a function. In other words, this so-called sacrifice table The corpse table may be a ritual object or a murder weapon. I cannot make a judgment before seeing this thing with my own eyes.”
This nonsense was the same as not being said. Even the fat man could tell that this old boy Luo Tianhe was playing psychological warfare and deliberately not giving any conclusions, thinking that this clue was just feeding the dog.
"It's better to be cautious. Mr. Luo, what did you find out there?" Jiang Cheng put away the newspaper and looked up at Luo Tianhe very naturally.
Luo Tianhe took his time, beckoned everyone to sit down and said, "We did find out some information about the old name of the Wu family. The Wu family has a good reputation in Wolong Town. Everyone says that the Wu family The master is very charitable and often sends people to diagnose and deliver medicine to people who cannot afford medical treatment. The most expensive thing is that they don’t take any money. Even after someone dies in the town, they will help with funeral arrangements and deliver coffins.”
“But these are limited to these years. We have found a few people in the next village. The Wu family they described is completely different from what we see now. " Luo Tianhe's voice changed and his tone became gloomy, "According to their memories, the Wu family was not like this many years ago. At that time, the Wu family relied on the support of the government to suppress their peers, bully the market, and be arrogant to the people in the town. No, it’s not an exaggeration to say that men are bullying men and women are being bullied. Everyone dares to be angry but dare not speak out. But suddenly one day, the Wu family changed and became particularly gentle. No one could figure out why, and it has continued to this day."
"There must have been some change that made them change. A face." Ding Zhenzong said angrily, this is an obvious thing.
"Yes, we asked some elderly people indirectly, but they didn't know what happened to the Wu family at that time, and we didn't dare to ask too directly for fear of arousing suspicion." Luo Tianhe explained.
Reminiscent of the previous cases at Roman Hotel and Su Zhai, everyone knows very well that the water in the Wu family is also very deep. Finding out what kind of evil is hidden under this deep water is the key to this mission. .
Looking at the way the Wu family master died, the first thing that gives people the impression is that it was out of revenge. The top priority is to find out what happened to the Wu family many years ago. (End of this chapter)
