Chapter 350
Finally returning to the real world, the experience in the Necromancer Realm seemed like a nightmare.
When I opened my eyes, I saw two worried faces.
"Thank God, you finally woke up. You fainted out of nowhere and almost scared me to death." Ghost detective Xu bent down and stared at me, seeing that I woke up, he let out a long breath.
"Fatty Wang and Zhen Qingyi are also awake?" I found myself lying on the hospital bed.
"Wake up, you woke up almost at the same time, what happened?" Lao Liu asked worriedly.
I sat up with my hands on my back, turned my head and looked around, on the two hospital beds next to me, Fatty Wang and Zhen Qingyi were lying awake, looking around in a daze.
"How are those infected with corpse plague?" I felt a little dizzy and asked weakly.
"Thanks to you, they have stabilized. The doctors said it was incredible." Old Liu's eyes were full of wonder.
"We were waiting outside, but there was no movement inside for a long time. When I opened the door and entered, I found that you all passed out. Was there any accident?" Ghost Detective Xu asked with concern.
"Hey, don't mention it, Fatty almost died." Fatty Wang waved his hand and said with a look of displeasure.
I glared at that coward, this guy is the most disloyal, and at the critical moment, he runs faster than a rabbit.
"What happened, you guys should tell me quickly." Old Liu was impatient.
"A little accident happened. There is good news and bad news." I got out of bed and stretched my arms and legs.
"When did you learn how to play tricks?" Ghost Tan Xu looked at me with a wry smile.
"The good news is that we have found the cause of the corpse plague and the culprit." I moved my wrist.
"What about the bad news?" Old Liu asked anxiously.
"The bad news is that the situation is more serious than expected, and the corpse plague must be controlled immediately, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous." I said slowly.
"Is it really man-made? Who is so wicked, and is not afraid of going to hell after death!" Lao Liu asked angrily.
"Because he is a dead man!" I stared at Lao Liu and said word by word.
Old Liu was dumbfounded, opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.
"It's too exaggerated. With you, I have experienced more strange things than I have in my entire life." After a long time, Lao Liu regained his breath and muttered to himself.
"You mean, the other party is a resurrected corpse?" Ghost Detective Xu has been with us for a long time, but he knows some secrets in the circle.
"That's right, he can increase his strength by spreading corpse plague. We must find him as soon as possible." I looked at my companion opposite and said in a deep voice.
"The county is not big, it's not small, where can I find that hiding guy?" Fatty Wang muttered.
"Old Xu, what do you think?" I stared at Ghost Detective Xu and asked.
We are experts in exorcising evil spirits and demons, but to solve cases and trace them, we should consult Ghost Tan Xu.
Ghost Detective Xu stroked his chin with one hand, paced back and forth in place, lowered his head in thought.
"I think, no matter whether he is a living person or a dead person, since he appears in the Yang Realm, it is impossible to lose touch with reality, and he will definitely interact with some people and things." Ghost Detective slowly analyzed.
"You mean, the series of strange things we have encountered recently are all related to each other?" I asked in a deep voice.
"Intuition tells me that there must be a connection that we don't know. He can't be an isolated individual." Ghost Detective Xu stared at me and said.
"I immediately ordered the team members to go and check." Old Liu hurried to the door.
I lowered my head slightly, analyzing the strange things I encountered recently.
Suddenly, I remembered the lord Wang mentioned before his death, and the corpse plague recorded in medical books hundreds of years ago.
"That's an old monster that has existed for more than 1000 years. Maybe the other party did the corpse plague back then, but it didn't work." I analyzed in my mind.
"The black jade box is mentioned in the book, which is the sacrificial vessel of the Chimen. Can you find traces of the other party from it?" As soon as this idea arose in my mind, I was rejected by myself, because the black jade box, no one Haven't seen it.
"It's a pity. At that time, I was in the Necromancer Realm. I should have asked my senior in detail. In terms of understanding of the Chimen, who can surpass him?" I sighed for a long time.
With a muffled "click", something fell out of my body.
"You lost something on your body." Ghost Detective Xu reminded him from the side.
I looked down at the ground and saw a bundle of bamboo slips falling on the ground, obviously I didn't have this thing on me?
Immediately, I suddenly remembered that before parting, the senior from the Chi family seemed to say that he gave me something, could it be the bamboo slips on the ground?
I bent down curiously, picked up the bamboo slips on the ground, flipped through them casually, and then, shock appeared in my eyes.
"The Eighteen Skills of Finding Dragons, isn't this the long-lost secret of my Zhang family." My heart was turbulent, and I never thought that the little thing that the senior said could be so precious.
The ancestral physiognomy scripture in my hand has been incomplete. On the last page, there is a special list, which records the secret arts lost by the Zhang family one by one. Among them is "Eighteen Techniques of Seeking Dragons" .
"It seems that even if it's not for myself, but just to return the favor of that senior, I still have to find that ancient corpse and subdue him." I muttered to myself.
"Isn't it just a broken bamboo slip, as for treating it as a treasure?" Fatty Wang leaned over and glanced at the bamboo slip in my hand.
"What do you know!" I glared at that bastard, and carefully put away the scroll of bamboo slips.
"That's strange, have you noticed that after the initial bout of dizziness, your mental state has improved to a higher level than before?" Zhen Qingyi walked over and said with a puzzled expression.
"That's natural. Although the Necromancer Realm is dangerous, it's not without rewards." I smiled slightly, but I actually noticed this change a long time ago.
"If I had known this before, I should have killed more horned babies when I was in the Necromancer Realm." Fatty Wang looked regretful.
"Come on, it's good to come back alive, don't look forward to Shu." I accused Fatty Wang of not being too greedy.
Just as he was talking, Lao Liu pushed open the door and hurried in.
"It's been arranged, and all the people have been sent out. As soon as there is any news, I will know immediately." Old Liu said quickly.
"Which area do you focus your investigation on?" Ghost Detective Xu asked curiously.
"Of course it's where the corpse plague first occurred. Is there something wrong?" Old Liu asked strangely.
"I have an intuition that the focus of the investigation should be near Liu Xu's villa and the crematorium." Ghost Detective Xu hesitated for a moment, then said in a deep voice.
"What's the basis for the judgment?" Old Liu stared at Ghost Detective Xu. He was used to everything, so he had to show the evidence first.
"I can't say it, it's just an intuition." Ghost Detective Xu spread his hands and shrugged.
"Manpower is limited, let's take a step first." Lao Liu hesitated for a while, then took out his mobile phone, made a call, and asked his team members to separate out a few people to focus on the villa and the crematorium.
"Don't forget to tell your colleagues, no matter what abnormal situation you find, don't act rashly. Our opponent this time is not an ordinary criminal." I was a little worried.
"I told you, they know how to measure." Lao Liu replied.
The matter at the hospital has come to an end, and the sent corpse plague infected people have basically been brought under control.
And those infected people who are still in the incubation period and have not had an attack are a huge crowd, and we cannot find them all.
When the senior from the Qimen taught me several secret techniques to restrain ancient corpses, he mentioned a simple and effective way to deal with corpse plague urgently and prevent it from spreading in a large area.
That kind of method only needs some common traditional Chinese medicines. Although it cannot cure the root cause, it can delay the onset of corpse plague and buy us time.
I told Lao Liu the simple and convenient method, and asked him to find a way to implement it.
Old Liu stood in the ward, pondered for a moment, and finally raised his head and said, "It's a simple matter. I'll tell the doctor, and I will ask the residents in that area to grab the medicine and decoct it by themselves for the reason of preventing the spread of the disease."
"There's only so much we can do, let's do our best and obey the destiny." I sighed.
The only consolation is that this corpse plague came suddenly, but no one was killed.
It was getting late, we chatted for a few words, and then went home to rest. Before we parted, we said, if there is any news, don't forget to remind each other.
After Zhen Qingyi dropped me back to the shop, she drove home by herself, startled and afraid that she was tired after tossing around for most of the night.
I closed the shop door, went to the bedroom on the second floor, and took out the bamboo slip presented by the senior Juanmen.
"Eighteen Techniques of Finding Dragons" is a book about the secrets of geomantic omen and qi, which happens to be my shortcoming, so I immediately opened the bamboo slips and started to study them line by line.
A few minutes later, I frowned. I still knew all the characters on the bamboo slips, but when connected together, they were obscure, and there were many technical terms. My background is too poor, so I can only make a rough idea.
As for wanting to learn the feng shui secrets inside, it is obviously beyond my level.
"It seems that I still have time to ask my second uncle, but after so many years of inheritance, he may not know much better than me." I smiled wryly, and casually put the bamboo slips beside my pillow.
Opening the drawer next to the bedside table, I accidentally caught a glimpse of a round jade inside. This is the astrolabe I got back then, but neither my second uncle nor I know how to use it.
"The usage of the astrolabe is recorded in the Eighteen Art of Milong, but unfortunately it's all technical terms, and I can't understand many parts." I took out the astrolabe in the drawer.
Under the light, the jade is warm and translucent, and it feels very comfortable when held in the hand.
This is a magical tool that is many times easier to use than the compass. It is said that in ancient times, only astrologers who had truly obtained the title of "Looking for Dragons" were worthy of using the astrolabe.
Putting the bamboo slips and jade wares together, I closed the drawer, washed up briefly, lay on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.
During the period, I had a strange dream. In the dream, there were mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and there were rotting corpses everywhere, which was horrible.
