Chapter 468 The Last Corpse Exorcist

The Qingtu Temple built deep in the wasteland is still the same as before, with no changes due to the incident involving Taoist Xianqing.

When I opened the door of the Taoist temple, I saw Yun Chuan sweeping the floor, meticulously clearing the fallen leaves from the yard.

"Yunchuan, is there anything you need my help with?"

Seeing me coming in, Yun Chuan said a simple hello to me: "Master Fate, please go to the east wing to rest first."

The Qingtu Temple is divided into east and west wing rooms. The east wing is for entertaining guests and the west wing is for raising corpses and practicing Taoism.

I nodded and walked into the east wing. I sat on a rough handmade wooden chair and looked at the scattered health training advertisements and Tai Chi brochures on the table. I couldn't help but think of the last time I came here.

"Everyone has misfortunes and misfortunes, and in the blink of an eye, he didn't even catch up to the last moment."

I collected the scattered advertisements and put them in the drawer. Not long after, Yunchuan came in after cleaning. He still had a letter in his hand.

"Master had a premonition of something before driving away the corpse of the Fox Fairy. He left this letter for me to give to you."

"He had a premonition at that time?" I took the envelope and sealed it with red wax. I haven't opened it yet.

Opening the envelope and taking out the letter paper, the vigorous fonts on it were written by Taoist Master Xian Qing himself.

"Xianqing has been cultivating Taoism for more than 40 years. Today, I asked you to call me little friend. Yesterday you caused the corpse of the fox fairy to resonate in the temple. This is not a good sign. You should be more careful. This fox is dead but not stiff, not rotten, and not smelly. , will definitely lead to disaster. If you are connected with it, it will most likely haunt you."

"If I succeed in expelling the corpse, I will just send it to the northeast. I am afraid that something will happen on the way and the lives of Jiangcheng will be ruined."

"In recent days, I have been restless. I know that a disaster is coming. I should never agree to exorcise the corpse. I am afraid that this trip will be extremely difficult to do well."

"If something happens to me on the way, Yunchuan will definitely send this letter to my friend. You should pay special attention to two things."

"First, the corpse of the fox fairy will definitely come to you, so be prepared."

"Secondly, the Taoist priest who asked me to remove the body is named Liu, and he calls himself Jiu Zhenren. If you are destined, maybe you can meet one day."

"The above is my warning to my little friend. There are a few more things that I hope my little friend can help me with."

"My disciple Yunchuan has been following me to practice Taoism. He is not familiar with the world, and I'm afraid he will fall into trouble in the future. So I want him to follow you for a while and just learn some crafts that can make a living. As for the inheritance of the corpse exorcism line, it will be discontinued. Come on, I won’t force it anymore.”

"Yunchuan, this kid has an ugly face but a kind heart. He is an honest kid. After I leave, you can choose whatever you want in the Taoist temple. I just ask you to let Yunchuan return to a normal life."

"Don't let Yunchuan see this letter. That child's life is miserable. There is no need to make him feel bad for me."

"There is one last thing I want to tell you. There is a wooden tablet in the Sanqing Hall. It is the tablet of the ancestor of the corpse extermination line. This object is related to the evil objects suppressed under the No. 3 Bridge Crematorium. Don't lose it. Or inform outsiders.”

…

Taoist Master Xianqing explained a lot of things, most of which were related to Yunchuan. I felt sour after reading it. Although I had known that the relationship between master and apprentice was deep and that although they were not related by blood, they were better than father and son. At this moment, I still felt overwhelmed. .

After reading the letter from Taoist Xianqing, I did not do what he said. Instead, I handed the letter to Yun Chuan. He is the person closest to Taoist Xianqing and is qualified to know all this.

After reading the letter, Yun Chuan narrowed his eyes to a slit, as if to hide his red eyes.

"You have read the letter. It is up to you to decide what to do. If you want to return to a normal life, I will arrange for you to learn some crafts, support yourself, and even get married and have children in the future." I said this I have some confidence. Whether it is Huang Boyuan's Qianding Pharmaceutical or the Li family company, the largest in New Shanghai, I can find a good job for Yunchuan.

Putting down the letter, Yun Chuan shook his head: "I want to stay here, guard the Taoist temple, and continue to learn how to drive away corpses."

"You have to think clearly. The line of corpse exorcism has declined. Modern people don't need this at all. You live in embarrassment and your corpse exorcism skills are useless. You are even worse than those charlatans who run health training courses." I said. What is true is that these Taoist priests who have real skills, disdain to lower their stature, and act with great principles, generally live in poverty. This is the case for Taoist Master Xian Qing, and the same is true for Blind Man Liu.

"Thank you for your kindness, Yun Chuan. I understand the master's teachings. I will pass on the master's teachings, and the line of chasing corpses will not be broken." Yun Chuan stood up and handed the letter back to me with a firm attitude.

When I was about to persuade him a few more words, the phone rang. It was Tie Ningxiang.

"I'll tell you later." I stood up and walked outside the door to answer the phone: "Senior sister, I'm at Qingtu Temple, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Gao Jian, I know you are very busy, but you must come to the city branch now."

Tie Ningxiang's tone was serious, which made me feel something was wrong: "Did something happen?"

"Several corpses were found at Jiangcheng Beijiao Subway Station. It was initially determined that the method of committing the crime was the same as that of previous murders. When we screened the surveillance video, we unexpectedly found that you had appeared at the crime scene during the time of the crime."

Listening to Tie Ningxiang's words on the other end of the phone, I slowly understood that I happened to be present when the blood fox went on a killing spree in the subway station yesterday, so it was normal for me to be caught on camera: "You are not doubting me, are you?"

"This case is so big that the city branch can't handle it at all. The higher-ups require you to come over immediately to cooperate with the investigation, otherwise the police will be dispatched." Tie Ningxiang said in a business-like tone when multiple lives were involved.

"Okay, I'll go over now." After hanging up the phone, I found Yun Chuan helplessly. He expressed his understanding and let me do my own thing first, and just go directly to the No. 3 Bridge Crematorium at three o'clock in the afternoon to attend the farewell ceremony.

I nodded, thought for a moment, and then took Yunchuan to the main hall of Qingtu Temple. There was a wooden tablet next to the statue of Sanqing.

"Yunchuan, this tablet is very important, you must keep it."

After the explanation, I left directly for the city branch, being cautious along the way for fear of any accidents.

I arrived at half past twelve. After taking the normal notes, Tie Ningxiang dropped another shocking news.

"There is still a survivor alive, but his brain is not normal. He seems to have been severely stimulated." In the criminal investigation office, everyone including Wu Meng and Zhao Bin looked at me with strange eyes until I was caught by them. After staring at each other for a long time, these people took out a pencil sketch and handed it to me: "This portrait of the criminal was drawn by us based on the description of the survivor. Take a look."

I took the piece of paper and glanced at it, and was immediately blinded. The person drawn on the paper looked eighty-nine times like me: "Are you really doubting me?"

The murderer of the murder in the subway station was a blood fox, but it followed me to the world of yin and yang, and drank the Wangyou water. Now I don’t know if it has come back.

"Most of the wounds on the deceased's body were lacerations, with teeth marks and claw marks. According to the results of our wound simulation, the real culprit should be a fox." Tie Ningxiang gestured with her hands when she said this. "It's only supposed to be this big."

Seeing her gesture, not only me, but also the entire police force in the criminal investigation room looked strange.

A fox, not much bigger than a badminton racket, turned out to be the murderer of the subway station. This result was unacceptable to anyone. They couldn't even convince themselves, let alone report it to the Public Security Bureau to apply for closure of the case.

"The investigation is in trouble, and you happened to appear during the time of the crime. You have the time and rich experience to commit the crime, plus your good physical fitness, as well as your strong on-site disguise, reasoning and misleading abilities, so The above specifically stated that you should be classified as a key investigation target." Wu Meng took out an official document signed on it from the drawer: "If necessary, we can also take coercive measures."

"Forcing your sister! I have rich experience in committing crimes with wool? This looks like they were killed by animals. There are bite marks on their bodies. You can extract my blood and compare with the tooth marks!" I was really speechless! , I really didn’t expect to be chased by the blood fox all night, and in the end I would have to take the blame for it: "You are all elites in the police community, can you be sensible? By the way, where is the survivor? I want to see him !”
