Main text Chapter 81 The body is destroyed, the soul is captured
Night fell quickly.
The entire Qingchang County, away from the hustle and bustle of the day, calmed down.
However, Canfeng Hall was still bustling with people.
The bodies and bones in the yard were mostly dug out and carried out, and there were coroners to perform autopsies.
However, no matter what the cause of death of these people was, the huge number alone made all those involved in the case gasp.
"It's unbelievable that such a big murder case happened right under our noses! This Canfeng Hall has been open for several years, and no one has discovered it."
"Who said it wasn't? It was also because Huang Dewen was careful and good at disguise. He did good things to the people in the city and only killed outsiders."
"Thanks to Qiu Sheng, I heard that this time, it was the student of Prime Minister Ma who came forward to let the government obey Qiu Sheng's orders. I think Qiu Sheng has a bright future!"
The yamen runners who stayed up late talked in a low voice. Not far away, the master was negotiating with the elders and the chief and deputy baojia.
According to the laws of Darui, any murder case cannot be investigated by the government alone. Local gentry and grassroots officials must participate and assist, supervise each other, and write down their own records, one copy to the yamen and one copy to the annals.
When a major case suddenly occurs, everyone is worried and frowns.
Suddenly.
I feel sleepy.
"I'm so sleepy, so sleepy, so tired."
Several yamen runners collapsed to the ground while speaking. In the distance, the person in charge of transporting the corpse, the coroner, the lawyer, the elders, the chief and deputy baojia, etc. also swayed and fell to the ground one after another.
For a moment, the busy clinic became silent.
Buzz buzz buzz~
I heard the sound of mosquitoes. In the bright moonlight, several flying mosquitoes were clearly visible. They soon flew to a street corner and entered a porcelain bottle.
Snap!
The bottle stopper fell.
"Fortunately, I have these sleepy bugs that the master has raised with medicine, otherwise I really don't know how to get in."
The bottle was held by a servant, who was the one serving Doctor Huang. When the big case happened in the daytime, all the people in the clinic should have been arrested, but when they started, they only arrested Doctor Huang and a few strong men. The servant had gone somewhere, but he showed up at night.
He tiptoed past the sleeping people and arrived at the main hall of the clinic. Looking at the deserted hall, the servant sighed, and then his eyes flickered: "Although it's a pity that I haven't learned much skills, it's also an opportunity. I remember..."
He walked to the medicine cabinet while thinking.
Each drawer of the medicine cabinet has a label, and it contains medicinal materials, including some valuable ones, but the servant did not even look at them. He went straight to the corner of the medicine cabinet, raised his hand and pulled it, opened a side drawer, and then reached in, stretched his whole arm in, fumbled inside for a long time, then smiled and took out a bottle.
Pulling out the bottle stopper, a fragrance wafted out.
"Hmm..."
The servant took a deep breath and poured out a black pill from the bottle.
"Wuzhen Pills! This pill made from five kinds of precious medicinal materials can replenish vitality and strengthen muscles and bones. It is priceless! I didn't expect that Wuzhen Pills would end up in my hands! When I leave, I will find a secluded place to take care of my body. After swallowing it, I will nourish it for half a year, and I will be able to accumulate enough blood and vitality to try to refine the essence! After that, I will study the notes carefully, and maybe I can cultivate the soul path. At that time..."
"Oh? Huang Tong, I didn't expect you to come back. Are you waiting to collect my body?"
However, the servant was not happy for long, and was startled by a sentence coming from behind, and turned his head hurriedly.
Who else could be standing behind him if not Doctor Huang?
"Mr... Sir..." The servant trembled.
Doctor Huang's hair was disheveled at this time, and he was wearing prison clothes. There was a pool of blood on his clothes, which was bright red and obviously freshly stained. He looked at the servant and walked slowly towards him, saying, "That pill is a tribute to King Tongshan. You hold it in your hand. Do you want to go to Wuxin City for me?"
"No! No!" The servant retreated again and again, with fear on his face, "I am worried that the master's hard work will be destroyed by these officials..."
Swish!
Before he finished speaking, a light flashed in the air, and a figure appeared out of thin air and fell straight down!
"Ambush!"
Everything happened too suddenly. Although Doctor Huang concentrated his mind and reacted in time, he was not in life cultivation after all, and his body speed was limited. He only had time to tilt his head to dodge.
Swish!
The blood was boiling and the air in the whole hall was swollen, filled with blood and vitality. Then, with a "click", a fist hit Doctor Huang's back heavily. The fist first swelled, then shrank, and the force burst out, knocking Doctor Huang to the ground in an instant.
Doctor Huang screamed, blood gushed out of his mouth, and his spine hurt so much that he couldn't feel his lower body!
This punch directly broke his spine!
He barely raised his head and looked at the attacker.
"It's you! Qiu Yan! You are hiding here! No, I didn't detect any breath, but you are clearly in flesh and blood... Could it be that you have refined the breath-retaining jade pendant? This is impossible! Even if it is a cultivator who has condensed the earth soul, it will take at least half a month to refine other people's magic tools. It can't be so fast..."
This punch was thrown by Qiu Yan!
Doctor Huang's words did not cause Qiu Yan to respond at all. Qiu Yan continued to fall, shaking his arms with a crackling sound. Then he swung his hands from both sides, clamping Doctor Huang's head on the left and right!
Snap!
Dr. Huang's words stopped abruptly, his head shrank like a ball, blood gushed out from seven holes, and the blood was thin and long.
But this was not the end, and a light flashed in Qiu Yan's right hand, and the magic talisman jumped out and printed on Dr. Huang's deformed forehead.
Pull!
There was a scream, and Dr. Huang's soul was pulled out by the magic talisman. The light and shadow in the soul changed, and there were rows of medicine cabinets around the soul man!
"What kind of magic is this! Even if you destroyed my body, my vitality has not been cut off. How can I be directly captured by you."
Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes and didn't answer at all. His thoughts turned rapidly, and the magic talisman turned rapidly, about to completely engulf Dr. Huang's soul, and at this time, a scream came from the soul.
"Huang Tong! Don't do it!"
The voice fell, and the soul man moved his hand, and a fantasy spread out.
The medicinal field, poisonous water, fragrant mist, and poisonous gas spread rapidly in all directions, forcing Qiu Yan!
On the other side, the medicine cabinet standing by the wall suddenly rustled, and then rose from the ground. The drawers on the cabinet opened spontaneously, and the medicinal materials inside were melted all at once, emitting a foul smell and a wave that made Qiu Yan's heart palpitate!
This wave was not unfamiliar to him. It was emitted when the spell resonated with the spiritual energy!
"The whole medicine cabinet is actually a magic weapon!"
