I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 172 The head of the dead man, Lin, is the murderer

The dark and cold cave made the soft colorful silk couch that should have been bright and bright become rotten and gray.

Completely losing the splendor of the human world, a group of teenagers in their teens and twenties now seem to be living in a sewer, never seeing the light of day all year round.

Looking at the angry man in front of him, it seemed that ordinary pills could not restore him. Cao An thought for a while and threw the broken arm away.

This time, it finally worked.

I saw a group of sick teenagers around them, hurriedly placing their broken arms on the man's shoulders. Soon, squirming flesh and blood emerged from the broken arm, which seemed to be repairing itself.

The painful expression just now eased slightly.

"But with this look, he shouldn't be considered a human being anymore, right?" Ying Huorong looked on.

Such rapid muscle regeneration ability is not common even in the demon clan, and it is even less likely for humans to possess it.

"They should be considered ghosts now."

With purple skin, green eyes, and no sunlight all year round, he is obviously out of the realm of normal people.

Cao An's previous speculations are now basically established.

……

Counting Tiemian and Agent Lin, there have been at least 28 rounds of assassinations in this area.

What's even more outrageous is that no one can catch their traces in these assassinations.

Including Cao An, the clues were discovered through [Lingxi Jue] after the other party took action.

This kind of assassination ability is already the king of killers in the outside world, but so far I have never heard of it.

It can be concluded that the assassin's ability can only be activated during winter hunting.

Then it is very clear that this ghost realm is the focus of the assassination, and there are people who can control the power of ghosts.

The ghost of the enemy turned into a physical entity and attacked the winter hunting team, while the ghost attached to the assailant's body and assassinated the target.

The arrow shot at the iron face seemed ordinary, but the resentment contained in it was extremely terrifying and could not be resisted by ordinary people.

In the subsequent arrest of Lin, a group of ghosts and spirits worked together to sneak into the house through Huang Sha's hidden body. The ghosts stalked the people and drowned them to death.

"It's that simple?"

Ying Huorong was used to Cao An's stories. He usually used all kinds of crooked tricks, but this time he was so straightforward and killed him face to face.

"Is it simple? Not simple at all. The methods they use cannot be copied by outsiders."

Whether it is an innocent soul or a ghost, they are all evil spirits that cannot be reincarnated after death.

They have no thoughts, no control, and it is impossible for them to reach the fourth level of strength.

The reason why it is so strong is except for the [Lost Soul Sand] from the Wangchuan River.

"Because that [Death Note] should be a list of all the enemies of ghosts."

Ghosts mostly stay in the world with resentment. In other words, if you become a ghost, you will not be spared.

But if you become the enemy of tens of thousands of ghosts at the same time, then congratulations, you are not far from death.

These teenagers have been transformed into half-humans and half-ghosts by the Underworld Dao, and have been integrated into the underworld ghost realm here. All they have to do is guide these ghosts to commit crimes.

Cao An came to this conclusion because he felt a strong sense of suffocation at the moment when the yellow sand rose.

This is different from a sense of crisis, but a feeling of being rejected by the world. I am afraid that at that time, there will be countless ghosts staring at him, which is creepy just thinking about it.

As for why you haven’t taken action yet?

"First of all, it's Senior Sister's scroll, which is the thing that seals all ghosts. Ordinary ghosts are afraid of it. This is the reason why they shot down arrows easily before.

"Secondly, Brother Pan is also from Huangquan Road. I'm afraid they have recognized you.

"It's a pity that they don't dare to recognize you. You are now the Golden Scale of the Tsing Yi Department, and they are just killers who keep sending out invitations."

"We didn't send the invitation, we just want to live." The young man spoke, refuting Cao An's words.

Judging from his age, he should be in his early twenties. He is the oldest among these people, and he is naturally the representative of the brats.

The broken arm was reattached, and the rickety man finally regained his breath.

Perhaps a broken arm is nothing to a half-ghost body. What really hurts him is that the spell on his body is broken. It is the spell that is dissolved in their soul. Once it is broken, the person will die.

At this moment, the arm healed, Huangquan Taoism was complete again, and the man recovered. It was really a strange self-healing ability.

Pan Daxi stepped forward, and his few souls still retained sadness: "You are A Kong, right? I remember the birthmark on your shoulder."

In ten years, Akong has grown from a child to a young man.

Not to mention that at this moment, Pan Daxi looked like a person or a ghost. If he didn't identify him carefully, Pan Daxi wouldn't be able to tell that he was his former partner.

Akong lowered his head, with tears in his dark green eyes.

"Yes, Brother Pan, it's us. Ten years later, we are still living very hard."

Live, what a cruel word.

Look at this corrupt and cold cave, look at this fate that never sees the light of day.

Living for these ten years is really not as good as death. Pan Daxi knelt down and gently patted A Kong on the shoulder. His sister seemed to feel the atmosphere and squatted aside obediently without moving.

"I'm sorry. After we escaped, we wanted to come back and rescue you, but I couldn't find any trace of those people."

Pan Daxi fled and was rescued by the Tsing Yi Department. At that time, they characterized the case as child abduction and wanted to track down the gangsters.

But unfortunately, there was no way to escape. After three consecutive days of searching without results, the Tsing Yi Department had no choice but to give up.

Akong shook his head and said: "It's not your fault. Those people have controlled the [Lost Soul Sand] and can create the Underworld Ghost Realm. We, the [Underworld Ghost Generals], can no longer leave this place."

Underworld Ghost General, is this what they are called?

Just as Cao An suspected, Huang Quandao used [Lost Soul Sand] to form a ghost realm, and controlled the innocent creatures killed in the ghost realm like soldiers.

And the magical weapon controlled is the [Ghost Book].

Cao An stepped forward and asked: "You said those death invitations were not sent by you? Who sent them?"

"They are from the government, and we are just cooperating. They wrote their names in the book, and we felt the resentment of the ghosts, so we acted as guides and helped kill people in exchange for supplies."

They want to live, even if they are half human and half ghost, they still work hard to live.

They need everything that humans and ghosts need. They cannot leave this place, so they can only get funding by completing tasks.

"In the war ten years ago, we failed. The person who controlled us died in the battle, and the ghost book was left behind. Later, someone with knowledge came to us with the ghost book, and we have been in contact ever since."

Huang Quandao was defeated, and the emperor seemed to have abandoned them, but a third party took advantage of them.

As long as the names are written in the ghost book, the ghosts' hatred will be activated. The other party will find them, just to kill some people with the help of the [Underworld Ghost General].

Naturally, a group of teenagers don’t want to kill anyone.

But they cannot go to the human world, so the medicine and elixirs that their brothers and sisters need can only be purchased through their contacts.

Over time, the legend of the "Death Note" emerged. Whoever's name is written will die.

Why send invitations?

According to Cao An's thinking, someone should be targeting the young talents of the imperial court and trying to cut off Daxing's future.

Even if someone is like Mo Shaoqing, who dare not accept the invitation and go to the appointment, the reputation of cowardice has spread, and it will also leave a knot in the other person's heart, and bury the inner demons for the future impact on the fourth rank.

Who knows who hates the Daxing Dynasty so much?

"When you contacted the other party, do you know the other party's identity?" Cao An wanted to investigate the person behind the scenes.

Akong nodded: "I know."

"Who?"

"That Agent Lin who I just killed."

"???"

He came to kill you, and the target was himself? Are you sure you're not kidding?

"I don't know the specific situation, but since the ghosts hate him, then I will help him." Akong has lived in this dark world all year round and has lost the chance to face the light.

Agent Lin had been arranging for him to kill people, and now that he had the chance to kill him, he naturally did it without mercy.

To deal with Iron Mask, use a crossbow to kill instantly, and die quickly and painlessly.

To deal with Agent Lin, he simply brought a group of ghosts and drowned him, making his death even more painful.

But in this case, it doesn’t make sense! Is Agent Lin tired of living?
  Cao An thought, and Qiao Yundong's face suddenly flashed in his mind.

Since that person was determined to die, it didn't seem impossible that he would take his teammates with him before leaving.

"Give it a try. [Choose one of three suspects]"

Cao An decided to use the skill that he hadn't used for a long time.

"Roll call: Cao An, Ying Huorong, Qiao Yundong."

"Congratulations on the success of [Select One of Three Suspects]. Among the three named, there is a criminal."

After eliminating the two wrong options, the verdict was still successful. In other words, the murderer was Qiao Yundong, and he was the one using the ghost book this time.

Perhaps Agent Lin himself didn't expect such a tragic ending.

This time Cao An and Tiemian received invitations at the same time, and it was obvious that the mastermind wanted to get rid of them.

Perhaps Capt. Lin got excited and thought of a comparison, so he sent himself a fake invitation.

After they get out, both Cao An and Tie Mian are dead. If he is alive, his reputation will probably skyrocket, and he will be able to join the court soon!
  It's a pity that Qiao Yundong is yours, but he also owes Cao An a favor.

By default, Cao An is dead, and he avenges Cao An in advance, and also writes Capt. Lin's name on it.

That person made trouble for a long time and got himself killed. It’s true that bad people will be punished by bad people.

However, this time the ghost book suddenly changed hands, from Lin Captor to Qiao Yundong. I'm afraid it wasn't that person who wanted to carry out some special plan in this ghost realm.

"While you still have some time, tell me in detail what you know about the Changtianmen War ten years ago."
