A lot of tricks

() "Curse? Sir, what do you mean?" My heart became a little excited, because another clue was about to appear before our eyes.

"Our ancestors actually moved from Xiangxi more than 100 years ago. To be precise, they were expelled here. At that time, the ancestors were proficient in Miaojiang Gu, which killed many people. In the end, they aroused public anger and had to escape. I started a new life here." The old man said slowly, his voice still trembling.

Miaojiang voodoo has a long history and has supernatural power. They can use insects as voodoo, making life worse than death or walking corpses as tools in their hands, and it is reasonable for the voodoo practitioners to be hated by others .

I just heard the old wood master say: "The village was built later, everyone just wanted to live a peaceful life, and the evil Gu art gradually disappeared from our sight. But there are also people who raise Gu secretly, and there is a kind of loyalty Gu , this kind of Gu is raised with gnats. Some people used to plant this kind of Gu on girls. This kind of Gu will be transferred to their husbands when those girls get married. If their husbands are married to others If a woman does something offensive to public morals, the scorpion gu will devour their brains." The old village chief's face became uneasy when he said this, but he continued, "Ten years ago This kind of thing happened before, if I knew about it, I would have kept them away from her! Sigh..."

"She? Who is it? Did this kind of thing happen more than ten years ago?" I knew that the woman that Old Mu Ye was talking about must have a great connection with this case.

"It was a woman in our village. It is estimated that she was poisoned by the old man in the family when she was a child. Her husband later messed with a woman from another village and died in her room. But this woman has been crazy since then, and she has been around all day long. Walking around the children in the village." At this point, the old village chief seemed to have realized something suddenly, and shouted in panic, "It must be like this! It must be like this! It must be her who gave our family An Mian. Planted Gu, she must have planted Gu on all the children in our village! This is her hatred, her curse!"

"Then where is she now?" I hurriedly asked.

"Dead... died in a big fire a few years ago..." the old village chief murmured.

The old village chief looked a little dazed, and we didn't ask any more questions. His wife helped him into the house to rest.

"It can't really be a coincidence? The three of them have been planted with Gu, aren't they?" Sister Lan asked softly from the side. Although she asked, I knew that her heart was full of many questions like mine.

"But this can't explain the fire in the hotel and all the human factors hidden in it." I said lightly, this matter should not be as simple as being poisoned, "I think we have to go back overnight."

Lanmei and Zhang Jiewei nodded at the same time, and we immediately bid farewell to the old village chief, left Guyi Village and returned to the city.The journey was relatively smooth, and it was only after nine o'clock in the evening when we arrived in the urban area.

At this time, a text message came, I looked at it, and then said: "You go to the bureau first and ask Gao Jianning to check the relationship between Mu Anmian and the women. I will get off at the intersection ahead, and I have other things to do."

"What are you going to do again?" Sister Lan suddenly became dissatisfied with me for some reason.

"What? You don't want me to leave?" I smiled and opened the door after the car stopped.

"Tch, don't think I don't know where you're going." Sister Lan looked out of the car, then turned her head away in disdain.

For some reason, a small sense of satisfaction welled up in my heart. It is every man's pride to make a beautiful woman jealous, but don't overturn it.

I just received a message from Qi Wan, saying that she has something to look for me, and it just so happens that I also need to look for her.

Guyi Village, old photos, fraudulent corpses, loyalty Gu, these series of clues all point this case to an unnatural direction, but I know very well in my heart that without living people, the case will never happen.

I remember this road very clearly, and I stood in front of the flower shop more than ten minutes later.Now there are no guests here at all, the door is very deserted, and there are dim lights flickering inside.Just when I was about to enter, Sister Lan called.

"What's wrong?" I asked as soon as I got on the phone.

"Xiao Gao found it just now. Besides Mu Anmian, Fan Yan and Xie Liying in the photo, the girl hiding behind is..."

"Her, it seems that we are not far from the truth." I am not too surprised by this result.

"Yes, and... because of her parents, she is also raising Gu..." Lanmei's voice was a little strange, but it was unknown whether it was because of the raising of Gu or because of this woman.

After the phone call, I walked slowly into the flower shop.The flower shop is not big, so it can be seen at a glance that there is no one here, but the back door is half closed, presumably the owner is waiting behind.Stepping through the back door of the flower shop, there is a small yard inside, the petals are flying around, it looks so peaceful and beautiful under the moonlight, and at the same time it has a bit of coquettishness.

"Did you send me a message for something?" Facing the delicate figure standing under the tree, my tone couldn't help becoming gentle.

"I can't find you if I have nothing to do?" Qi Wan turned around with a smile on her face, her beautiful voice made me feel a little soft all over.

"You know I'm busy with the case right now." I replied with a smile, but I felt more and more in my heart that the woman in front of me was not simple. She looked so pure at first glance, but in fact she was so charming. No wonder she was able to capture such a fine woman. Ming's three men.

"I'm looking for you because of the case." Qi Wan walked into me step by step. Every time she took a step closer, my heart felt like it missed a beat.

"Oh? How do you say it?" I became more and more interested in Qi Wan in front of me.

"Secret..." Qi Wan said pretending to be mysterious, stretched out her slender hand to hold mine, and walked into the room.

I raised the corners of my mouth, and followed her in with my feet unconsciously.

The room is not big, but you can tell it is a woman's room at a glance.

"I heard you went to Guyi Village?" Qi Wan asked softly while pulling me.

"I just came back from there, but... how do you know?" With a hand, I pulled Qi Wan who was in front of me forcefully, and asked while staring into her eyes.

Qi Wan didn't seem to intend to answer my question, but continued: "Do you know that you have touched my bottom line?"

"So your bottom line only goes to Guyi Village?" I didn't let go of her hand, and she didn't intend to let go. I don't know if it's an ambiguity or a contest?

I put the mobile phone in the other hand in front of her eyes, and found a text message with five characters written on it, "Qi Wan is the murderer".

Qi Wan took a look, her face was a little stiff, but she said coldly: "This is the harvest of Guyi Village and his party?"

"You should be the fourth girl." I said slowly.According to my analysis, if the deaths of Wang Dong, Tao Jiahao, and Ouyang Min were really due to Gu poison, then the person who sent them to death must have something to do with this woman who is the common lover of the three of them. , and this woman, and the wives of the three of them were childhood partners.

"So what?" Qi Wan didn't seem to panic.

"I've had someone check it out. You also came from Guyi Village. As for the reason, I think it should be your father's bizarre death and your mother's insanity. You should be familiar with the so-called loyalty Gu." I continued State the facts unhurriedly.

A face appeared in the mirror in front of me, and I turned around. It turned out to be the mute assistant.Li Shaojing appeared in front of me expressionlessly, with a fiercer look on his face, like a wild beast that has found its prey and is ready to attack at any time.

"I didn't expect you to go all the way."

"There are many things you didn't expect, but I'm very surprised why you would think that I did these things." Qi Wan asked calmly.

I smiled with the corners of my mouth pulled, found a chair and sat down, and at the same time avoided being blocked by the two of them back and forth.

"Actually, I just had some doubts about you at the beginning. Someone checked you before and found out about your parents. This trip to Guyi Village has solved a lot of mysteries for me. What I just showed you That 'Qi Wan is the murderer' message was also edited by myself, just to lure you into being fooled, and if you look carefully, you can see that the message is unsent." I spoke slowly, completely ignoring Qi Wan Already has a green complexion.

"You lied to me." Qi Wan suppressed the anger in her heart.

"Cheating is just a means, haven't you done it before? Presumably the reason why you became Wang Dong and Tao Jiahao's lover was not because they forced you, maybe you were approaching them on purpose, but I don't understand why you would do that Do it." Originally, I didn't know much, but this temptation allowed me to learn more information.

"They all deserve to die. They were the ones who wanted to play with fire. They were killed by their own betrayal! If Wang Dong and Tao Jiahao could withstand the temptation, if they were loyal to their wives, it wouldn't be so easy He died at my hands." Qi Wan's emotions became obviously agitated, "And Ouyang Min, he kept saying that he loves me, it's ridiculous! Didn't he say that to Mu Anmian back then? This kind of person, Naturally, it is the food of my gnats! But I really admire you for daring to come here alone, do you want to try their power?"

"I came here just to find out about this matter. How did they die? Anyway, I can't escape now, why don't you let me figure it out, or even if you die, you're just a fool?" I slightly Said self-deprecatingly.

"I seldom refuse people. Since you want to know, I'll tell you." Qi Wan said quietly, just like a lover's tone, but it made people shudder.

She took out a jar from the cabinet, stroked it lightly, and said, "It's not the loyalty Gu that ate up those men's brains, but the mutant gnat that I've cultivated for many years, the loyalty Gu you knew in Guyi Village It's just a legend, and it doesn't have any effect at all. What's really useful is that they get in from the ears, and then eat up everything in the human brain bit by bit, and finally turn into pus and disappear. They would never think of it , I will get them drunk when I have a tryst with them, and then let my scorpions lurk in their minds, and when the time comes, I will drive them with a scorpion bell, and they will die silently."

When Qi Wan said this, she still had a weird smile on her face, as if this was an incomparably wonderful enjoyment for her, and at some point she took out a bronze bell.

"What about the fraudulent corpse?" I almost forgot that I was in a dangerous situation at the moment, and I didn't care about those disgusting centipede-like gnats crawling out of the jar on the ground.

"What Shaojing can do is beyond your imagination." Qi Wan glanced at Li Shaojing, who was still very quiet, as quiet as a cheetah.

I stared at Li Shaojing, his eyes were empty and bottomless, but with a trace of blood.

Suddenly, another voice that I had never heard before appeared, which took me by surprise.

"Cheating the corpse is just a small trick. The three of them have been poisoned by Gu, and their physiques have already changed. Back then, Xiaowan's father had cheated the corpse because of the residual Gu poison. I just need to be there at the right time. If an ion emission device is placed near the corpse, the corpse will naturally be deceitful due to the residual Gu poison, and its actions are controlled by the scorpion bell." Li Shaojing said slowly and calmly.

"So you're not dumb." I looked at Li Shaojing in surprise, this person really hid himself deep enough, even someone as serious as You Qiaolin didn't notice him.

"There are many things you don't know. For her, I can do more than just be a mute."

"There's still murder and burning, right?" I asked back.

"Oh, that's just the beginning..." Li Shaojing said, and turned to look at Qi Wan affectionately, but Qi Wan did not respond with the same affection, but Li Shaojing was not disappointed by this, but continued to As he spoke, it seemed that being able to tell everything was a particularly comfortable thing for him.

"I have been lurking by You Qiaolin's side for so many years, and I finally gained his trust. I thought I could make him work for me, but I didn't expect that even Qi Wan would be unable to pull him into our camp. Wang Dong and the three of them Their physiques have changed due to the Gu poison. If their corpses are not destroyed in time, the surname You will find out sooner or later. So I took advantage of You Qiaolin's absence and put appropriate amounts of r15 and hydrogen chloride in various parts of their bodies. When they move to a certain level, r15 and hydrogen chloride will naturally mix together because of his actions, ranging from spontaneous combustion in the body to explosion."

"Then what about the fire in the building? Why did you set that fire? Then why did you ask Sun Xiaomeng, who didn't know if it was a human or a ghost, to knock me out?" I still had a lot of questions in my heart.

"Would you believe me if I said that we didn't do these things?" Qi Wan smiled sweetly, but her expression was a little unnatural.

"Do you think I will believe it? It's better for you to explain everything in this situation." As I said that, I quickly drew out my pistol and pointed it at Qi Wan.You know, because of Li Shaojing's attitude towards Qi Wan, it is much more useful for me to point my gun at Qi Wan than Li Shaojing, even if he is a leopard.

But the leopard's reaction was so fast that it was unexpected. When I raised the gun, the gun in his hand was aimed at me.

"See if it's your gun or mine." I said to Li Shaojing slightly provocatively.

"You're not as fast as I am." Li Shaojing's voice was confident, and then I heard a gunshot.

I shook my body and suddenly realized that I hadn't been shot. Could it be that I was numb?

At this time, Li Shaojing fell down, and Lan Jinxuan swiftly removed the gun from Li Shaojing's hand.

I quickly stabilized my body, don't let this girl see the flaws, otherwise I will be laughed at by her for the rest of my life, and then I pretended to be leisurely: "Your trick of the oriole behind is very good."

"Never underestimate a woman." Sister Lan looked at me triumphantly, and pointed the gun at Li Shaojing who had been shot in the foot.

"Why are you alone?" I clearly remembered that Zhang Jiewei was with Sister Lan.

"I'm enough alone." Sister Lan smiled, "Zhang Jiewei has already brought someone here. Fortunately, I followed you, otherwise you would have confessed here today."

As soon as Lan Jinxuan finished speaking, Zhang Jiewei rushed in with a team of police officers, and led Qi Wan and Li Shaojing out.

Walking out of the yard, it seemed as if nothing had happened just now, and the fragrance of the flowers was still refreshing. I couldn't help approaching the jacaranda tree, bent down and grabbed a handful of soil under the tree, and the little finger-sized things were slightly wet emerged from the soil.

"This is?" Sister Lan couldn't help asking.

"The jacaranda egg." I said lightly, and looked up at the canopy-like jacaranda tree. It is estimated that the jacaranda tree is also responsible for the mutation of the jacaranda. No wonder there is chitin in the pus. The ingredients should come from those gnats.

"It's not good! It's not good!" There was a lot of noise outside, Sister Lan and I felt very different, so we hurried outside.

In the dark night, two balls of fire burned blazingly, illuminating the night sky, but they destroyed two lives, although their hands were covered with blood.

Li Shaojing and Qi Wan were completely on fire, and the police officers were trying to put out the fire, but the worsening fire made their rescue efforts useless.Li Shaojing and Qi Wan's bodies twisted together, as if they were struggling and entangled.

"What's going on?" I asked Zhang Jiewei at the side.

Zhang Jiewei shook his head, and only answered four words: "Spontaneous internal combustion."

At this point, the case has finally been clarified, and those gnats should be able to confirm the charges of Qi Wan and Li Shaojing after the test.But for some reason, my heart is still full of doubts.

After returning home, I still couldn't calm down. Sitting in front of the computer, my eyes were still filled with the scenes of Li Shaojing and Qi Wan's death.Fire, fire again, and the uneasiness in my heart rose again.

I didn't have time to turn off the computer before I left last time, and now the computer is still in hibernation. I turned it on absent-mindedly, and the weird email was still on the screen.Just as I was about to delete this email, the reminder of a new email caught my attention again.

I opened it casually, but it made my heart hang up again because of the case just now.

It's also an anonymous email, and it also has a weird "posthumous photo", but now the owner of this "posthumous photo" has become Li Shaojing and Qi Wan. Their weird smiles made the top of my head go numb. It was my photo, no, it should be a photo of me and my colleagues from the Secret Service.

However, the original color photo is now a black and white photo, which looks like a portrait.

Immediately after the photo, what appeared was a strange figure. The black dots formed a "meter" shape, and eight of the dots were connected together by red broken lines.

The only thing I can be sure of now is that the person who sent me these two emails was definitely not Li Shaojing or Qi Wan, they have no chance to send me such an email.

So who is it and what is the purpose of giving me these things?

I rubbed my head, and I couldn't figure out who this person would be, but obviously he knew as much about this case as I did, and even...he was one step ahead of me.

What does the strange figure that appeared at the end imply?

I turned the mouse mechanically and stopped suddenly.

and many more!

I was a little out of breath, this email was signed at the end, and the name turned out to be——Lan Jinxuan.

Lan Jinxuan?
