Holy Bone

Chapter 835

Since summer, the sea is no longer calm, but more stormy.

Especially with the abnormal weather, short days and long nights, hot weather, sea storms one after another, entering the typhoon season with frequent typhoons one or two months earlier than usual.

This day was seven days after Jin’an returned to the sun. There was heavy rain and howling winds. There was no starlight in the sky, only very low dark clouds, as if Tianwei was angry. From time to time, there were big trees in the city that were blown by the strong wind. Overturned, broken trees and branches flew all over the sky.

There was even the sound of houses collapsing as they were blown down by the strong wind.

The sky sends out murderous intentions, the mountains scream and the tsunami destroys the sky and the earth.

There are 10,000+ people living in Jiangzhou Prefecture. At this time, before natural disasters, they are as small as grass.

At this time, the people in the city were strengthening the doors and windows, and then found that the rain was too heavy, the sea water poured in, the flood was rising rapidly, and Jiangzhou Mansion was flooded.The people desperately stuffed clothes and cloth strips into the cracks of the door to prevent the flood from overflowing, and some people knelt down and kowtowed to pray for the Dragon King of the Four Seas to calm down and stop the heavy rain.

Before the world kills, even Jin'an can only use Erlang Zhenjun's water talisman to protect the small world of the five internal organs Taoist temple, and has no time to take care of the outside world.

Boom!

A loud noise interrupted the old Taoist priest who was reciting scriptures and praying for the people in the city. The sound was very loud and very close, and it happened in the neighborhood.

"Little brother, what happened just now?" The old Taoist hurried out of the wing room and looked up towards the roof.

Jin An was standing on the roof of the wing house, frowning and staring at the precarious disaster world outside the Taoist temple.

A sea ship that broke in two was blown onto the land by the typhoon, and the archway of the neighborhood was smashed and collapsed.

"What! The sea boat was swept ashore by the typhoon!" The old Taoist was shocked when he heard this, and immediately found a bamboo ladder to climb up to the roof, but a fat figure jumped onto the roof faster than him.

Fatty Li exclaimed from the roof.

At this time, the old Taoist priest had already climbed the bamboo ladder to the roof, and also saw the scene outside the Taoist temple. Sure enough, there was a broken sea boat smashing on the archway, with the head, bottom and tail obliquely inserted between the ruins of the archway and the houses.

The old Taoist was dumbfounded.

"You stay in the Taoist temple and don't move. I'll go and see if there are any survivors in the boat." After Jin An finished speaking, he rushed out of the Taoist temple, and at the same time, many people walked out of the house to join the rescue team.

As a result, those people didn't know what they saw, and suddenly they all screamed and ran out of the cabin. Although they knew that Jin'an was unlikely to be in danger, the old Taoist priest and Fatty Li still rushed out of the Taoist temple to find Jin'an.

The wind was so strong that the two of them ran into the broken cabin without even opening an umbrella. As a result, the old Taoist frowned as soon as he ran into the cabin: "There is so much sinister corpse here!"

"Little brother, little brother..."

"Daoist Jin'an..."

The two didn't shout a few times before they heard Jin'an's voice. When they found Jin'an, there was only Jin'an squatting in that position, with his back to them, as if he was looking at something.

"What's the matter, little brother, what are you squatting here looking at?" The old Taoist asked curiously as soon as he arrived.

"Huh? This is... the Zhenhai Stone Beast used as a ballast stone?"

After staying in Jiangzhou Mansion for half a year, the old Taoist recognized the origin of the Zhenhai Stone Beast at a glance. The Zhenhai Stone Beast was originally integrated with the keel of the hull, and was fixed to the keel of the ship in the shipyard and sealed by the deck. Normally you can't see it.

This time, due to the crash of the sea ship, the huge collision caused by the fall from a high place severely damaged the keel of the hull, and shook out the Zhenhai stone beast that had been sealed under the deck and fixed to the keel of the hull.

Zhenhai stone beasts are not limited to one form, there are stone beasts, stone bats, stone turtles, stone jiao, stone fish, etc. In front of Jin'an is Zhenhai stone monkey.

"Where does this Zhenhai stone beast have such a heavy corpse aura? The closer you get, the more the stench of rotting corpses hits you, making it difficult to breathe... This is..." The old Taoist's words stopped abruptly, and he was stunned. up.

One side of Zhenhai Stone Beast's body was shattered, and it was hollow inside, actually hiding a child's mummified corpse.

The child's mummy's mouth and eyes were wide open, with a painful expression. It seemed that he was still alive before being sealed in the Zhenhai Stone Beast, and he was struggling in pain during his lifetime.

"It's a crime, it's a crime! It's another victim who was turned into a living pile by a vicious person!" The old Taoist's face turned black with anger.

"Living pile?"

Fatty Li was surprised: "I have heard some rumors about this. Aren't the living piles built in walls or bridge piles? Zhenhai stone beasts and Luban civil mechanism techniques don't seem to be involved together?"

Hearing the familiar three words "living pile" again, even Jin An, who had been silently looking at the Zhenhai Stone Beast, looked up at the old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist said with enmity: "It's not difficult to understand. The main purpose of the living pile is to suppress evil with evil and suppress evil with evil. The worse the death in life, the more fierce and effective after death, just like the coffin cat to catch money and raise little ghosts." It is a principle that every gamble will win and make a fortune. This Zhenhai Stone Beast is connected to the keel of the hull, which is like piling. I hope the ship will sail safely. It looks exactly the same as the effect of a living pile."

After listening to the old Taoist's explanation, even Fatty Li frowned: "When the typhoon passes, I will immediately go to my colleagues, go to the local yamen, and check the origin of this sea-going ship carefully to see which trading company this sea-going ship belongs to." Yes! This kind of careless disregard for human life and the dehumanization of human nature is not enough to catch and kill ten times!"

The old Taoist cursed angrily: "Investigate! We must investigate and find out the truth, and give justice to the deceased! Looking at the old appearance of this boat, it has been a few years, which shows that it is not a recent thing to use living people's piles as stone beasts to suppress the sea. This ship has! More than one victim!"

No one knows what happened to this sea-going ship, how it was blown onto land by the typhoon, and it was surprised to find the Zhenhai Stone Beast, but since Fatty Li from the Criminal Investigation Division saw this incident, it would definitely not Stand by.

The typhoon lasted for two days and one night before it subsided gradually, and the entire Jiangzhou Prefecture was also in darkness for two days and one night before seeing the light of day again, causing heavy losses everywhere.

As soon as the typhoon was over, the Yamen who received the report immediately sent people to take over the case and sealed off the entire broken ship.

It's just because all over the country are rushing to rescue and provide disaster relief, and the yamen is understaffed, and there has been no reply in the past three or four days.The Wu Zang Dao Temple has been busy these days giving rice porridge and helping refugees and beggars, while waiting for the progress of the case.

This time the storm was very fierce. Some local elders said that it was a rare event in a hundred years. Jiangzhou Prefecture was busy for ten and a half months before it regained its prosperity.

On this day, Fatty Li hurried to Wuzang Taoist Temple to find Jin'an and the old Taoist priest. He said that this once-in-a-lifetime typhoon had blown up many strange things from the sea, including the discovery of shipwrecks and used The Zhenhai stone beasts who came to make living piles are now being escorted to Fucheng one after another.

Fatty Li felt that the old Taoist priest could recognize these Zhenhai stone beasts as living piles, which might help the government find some important clues, so he wanted to invite the old Taoist priest to the Yamen.
