Chapter 223 Cracking the Blood Mist
Why is this?
Why did the three people in front of them die and die, but Li Youzhi died on the spot?
"Since then, people have occasionally disappeared in the mystical city in the past two years, and blood mists have also risen. Although the government searches, it is still..."
Bai Junxiu only said half of what he said, but Zhou Zhao understood what he had not finished.
Li Youzhi, the eldest son of Tingwei Temple, came over and all the blood was splattered on the spot without any further information. How dare the little yamen runners in the mystical city search?
This is why the legend of "Mist Ghost" is flying all over the sky, and even Duobao Pavilion openly sold the evil-proof beads. Only in this way can they cover up their incompetence.
After all, how can ordinary people catch ghosts?
"Who is the person who has disappeared recently?" Jing Yi suddenly asked.
Zhou Zhao glanced at him lightly, and then waited for Bai Juncai's answer.
"I am a passing Confucian scholar, who is young and named Sun Zhi. He passed by the mystical city and wanted to go to the academy to discuss the Tao. Just yesterday, he disappeared into the blood mist in broad daylight.
When the yamen runner arrived, his book basket had been divided up. Only household registration and office are left. ”
The Daqi Dynasty had a "Law on Households" that strictly governed the household registration of the people. When the dynasty was first established, a "big people" came, and they were all registered. If there was a place that dared to lie about household registration and avoid corvee service, it would be strictly investigated and dealt with.
When you leave your hometown and go out of the city, you need to have a place to record your journey clearly.
Of course, these only work for the people who are obedient and good, and extrajudicial madmen are too lazy to care about these.
"I heard from the yamen runners that Sun Zhi was handsome and good at sword dancing, and was a crazy student. The Fulian Inn, who had lived in the city before, caused the sword dancing under the moon to throw flowers at him, which was also a romantic story. I never thought that he was kidnapped by the fog...."
Bai Jiazu also wanted to say that the fog ghost was coming, but when he thought that all the people present were the masters of Tingwei Temple, he immediately changed his words.
Zhou Zhao's eyes moved and asked a question to Bai Junzuo, "After the blood mist, is there blood stains on the ground?"
Bai Junzuo thought for a while and shook his head, "Only when Lord Xiao Li was there was blood on the ground, and everyone else came and went without a trace."
Zhou Zhao knew what he wanted to know and did not continue to ask questions.
Jing Yi didn't speak either, and the table suddenly became silent.
He Tingshi looked embarrassed and glanced at Liu Huang, the most bizarre prince in the entire Daqi Dynasty. When he saw his hat, he really wanted to ask, "Your Majesty, can you see the food?" Can I get it? What if I get on the hat?
He didn't dare to ask, but he heard that King Liu Huangli of Chu had a thousand pounds to lift the cauldron. He could swing his old bone in his hand and turn it into a windmill.
He glanced at Tao Shangshan sitting beside him again. The man opened his dead fish eyes slightly, and he looked like he was breathless and he looked muddy. He wanted to silt. Life was so boring, and he suddenly became dull again.
This is also useless.
He thought about it and said, "Time is tight. From today on, after three days, no matter what the result is, he will return to Chang'an immediately."
He Tingshi thought about it and added, "Zhou Zhao's ability is obvious to all, so I don't talk much. Zhou Zhao, you may not know about Jingyi, so I will say a few more words. Jingyi's investigation skills are also very good, but many of the cases he investigated have not been recorded."
Zhou Zhao immediately looked at Jing Yi, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then said, "He Tingshi has been awarded a lot. I just followed Lord Tingwei and got some credit for nothing."
He spoke humbly, and Zhou Zhao didn't believe that he really relied on Li Huaishan to take office.
He Tingshi was mentioning him. Jingyi was afraid that the case was handled in the palace or inconvenient to public disclosure, so Li Huaishan said that the two of them were incomparable.
The old man was definitely not a person who could sit in the position of the Tingwei and leave a handle for the censors. Jingyi should have made contributions and real talent and knowledge.
Zhou Zhao thought, nodded to He Tingshi to express his gratitude, and then the group automatically divided it into two groups after using the meal.
Jingyi and his group went out, but Zhou Zhao was not in a hurry. He returned to the room with Liu Huang first. Tao Shangshan followed her step by step, standing in the corner like a ghost, while Chen Jiyuan was like a ghost fire jumping beside him. He clearly didn't speak, and learned from Tao Shangshan to be a dead person, but he gave people a feeling of being very excited and wanted to speak but stopped.
Some people, if they don’t speak, will make people feel bad.
Zhou Zhao thought to himself and closed the door.
She took out the three evil-repelling beads and handed them to Liu Huang, "Ah Huang, let's see if it's an anti-worming medicine."
Liu Huang's hat instantly understood what Zhou Zhao meant. He opened his cage, took out a small plate, and then used a hanging knife to scrape a little powder from the lower evil-proof bead, put it on the tip of his nose and sniff it gently.
Then he did the same thing, scraping all three evil-proof beads and nodding.
"Yes, it does have the flavor of herbs, which are similar to the techniques of Master Qi of Tianji Hall, and should be of the same origin."
As expected, Zhou Zhao thought to himself.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
"It seems that I'm right. Do you still remember that when Lord Qi died, his body exploded into blood mist. He was retaliated by the worm and became an insect.
There were worms squirming in the blood mist, but even so, there would be blood and blood on the ground.
A very real person, no matter how much he explodes, it is impossible for him to turn into blood mist and disappear completely with bone clothes. This is unreasonable.
The other type of insect driven by Lord Qi is like green clouds. There are similarities between the two. The so-called blood mist is likely to be a tiny red insect with the same method as the master Qi.
Since it is not a fog ghost, it is a human being. If the Evil-Breaking Pearl is to work, there are only two possibilities. One is that the murderer is from Duobao Pavilion. If you buy the Evil-Breaking Pearl, it is equivalent to paying for your life; the second is that the Evil-Breaking Pearl is not to Evil-Breaking Pearl but to Evil-Breaking Pearl. ”
Zhou Zhao said, picked up a scratched evil-proof bead and looked at it, "It seems that I guessed right, it's the second type."
Tao Shangshan, who was beside him, couldn't help but open his eyes slightly as he heard this.
He had heard Xu Yun complain about it long ago, saying that when Zhou Zhao investigated the case, he had a beauty that he ignored their lives and only watered the ancestral tombs that were emitting green smoke.
Very stingy.
Now that I see you, it's true.
She has just entered the mysteries...
Zhou Zhaoquan thought the two did not exist, so she packed all three evil-proof beads in lotus and handed them to Liu Huang. Liu Huang understood them and put the purse in the cage.
They are here to catch people. Not to mention attracting insects to the hook, they can at least not avoid the insect.
"The interesting thing is coming. Why did the murderer manipulate the insect to explode the red blood mist? How did the living person disappear out of thin air? What is the difference between Li Youzhi and other missing people? Why is he the only one who wants to die?"
Seeing that Liu Huang had already carried the cage, Zhou Zhao nodded, "Let's go to Duobao Pavilion again."
