Chapter 264: The Way to Enlightenment - Parasite Master
It turned out that last night, after the Lantern Festival gradually dispersed, at midnight, the couple helped the man who drank 27 bowls of Lieyang wine into the wine shop, closed the door and prepared to collect energy.
The original intention was to collect some energy and then throw the man on the street.
For a person who can drink 27 bowls of Lieyang wine, it is nothing to have a little energy collected.
However, who knew that during the collection, the skinny man woke up!
He was also a person who embarked on the path of longevity.
On this path.
He would be extremely sensitive to the loss of life.
He was immediately furious and cursed: "You are a thief who steals life. You don't do business honestly, but steal my life!"
"I will kill you!"
As he said that, the skinny man grabbed the woman, and the woman almost suffocated and her life was about to be lost.
At this time.
The man in the Yin-Yang couple took action. He picked up a wooden stick from somewhere and hit the man on the head.
The man fainted.
Afterwards, the couple, fearing retaliation, even gave up the wine shop and ran away with the bucket overnight, but because it was getting light, they didn't dare to leave in public, so they didn't walk fast.
...
The two couples didn't dare to hide anything, and even told some insignificant details, including the details of the collection and the process of intercourse. Zhang Mo blushed when she heard it, and just wanted to interrupt, but Li Changxiao signaled her to continue.
Half an hour passed.
Everything that happened last night, everything that could be remembered, was told.
Zhang Mo frowned, "You mean, he was still alive at that time?"
"That's right." The woman said, "We have been running around for that little life span in the past few years, how can we have the courage to kill people!"
"Besides, I don't have such a great ability to suck a person dry? We are a yin and yang couple, not a marrow-sucking demon."
The woman looked innocent.
Hearing this.
Zhang Mo glanced at Li Changxiao, who nodded slightly, indicating that this was credible.
They left the dungeon.
The two went to see the skinny man's body again.
There were indeed traces of being raped, but not many, and the flesh and blood on his body did not seem to have disappeared because of rape.
Li Changxiao took a knife and cut open the skin on the skinny man.
He saw his bones directly.
There were tiny traces of bites.
"It seems that what the couple said is true." Zhang Mo nodded and said.
If they died from rape, there would not be such tiny bites on the bones.
These traces look like insects.
Li Changxiao naturally knew better than anyone that the couple could not lie, because the Fuhua Wind he blew into the minds of the two and made them tell the truth.
He looked at Zhang Mo and asked her to see what way the skinny man had taken to prolong his life based on the traces at the scene.
Zhang Mo observed carefully and finally said: "The path of opening the acupoints, the parasitic master."
Li Changxiao looked at Zhang Mo. He remembered that Zhang Mo and others also took the path of opening the acupoints.
Zhang Mo explained: "One path will derive countless ways to prolong life, and naturally there will be countless professions."
Zhang Mo told Li Changxiao that this so-called parasitic master is to store a small insect called Yuanchong in the acupoints that have been opened, and nourish it with blood and flesh.
Yuanchong can transport blood and release a strange energy to delay the passing of life...
Determine which path this skinny man took, and the rest will be much easier.
Li Changxiao took a knife and gently peeled off the skin wrapped around the skinny man, revealing the bones and flesh inside.
Based on the traces of insect bites, it is possible to identify how many mysterious acupoints this person has opened, and it is also possible to judge how old this person is based on the bone marks.
Zhang Mo first looked at the sole of the foot. There was a mysterious orifice three inches below the big toe. The skinny man had opened it and stored the Yuan insects in this mysterious orifice.
As a result, the traces of insect bites nearby were very heavy and dense... In this way, it can be seen how many mysterious orifices the skinny man has opened.
After observation.
The skinny man was about 127 years old.
He walked the orifice path and was a parasitologist.
Later, the two went to the wine shop where the man died to look for traces of insects.
Sure enough, they found that in the dark corners of some tables, there were small insects as small as dust.
Li Changxiao picked up one, observed it carefully, and then handed it to Zhang Mo.
Zhang Mo sealed several insects in a crystal bottle, took it back to Dayan Huazong, and handed it to an elder for investigation. The elder loved to raise insects and often entered the insect and animal market for the first time, so he was very familiar with insects.
The elder told the two.
The insects they brought back were not Yuan insects, but a kind of insect that looked very similar to Yuan insects, called "Yin insects".
The effects of this insect were similar to Yuan insects, but it was much more manic and often bit the flesh.
Generally, few insect parasite masters would choose this kind of insect.
Moreover, this kind of insect would be difficult to control once it encountered the rampant Yang energy.
At this point.
The incident gradually became clear.
It turned out that the skinny man, who used the acupoints to feed Yin insects, drank 27 bowls of Lieyang wine in a row, and sealed the Yang energy in Dantian to prevent it from overflowing. As luck would have it, he was knocked unconscious by the couple, and the Yang energy leaked, making the Yin insect manic and began to bite the flesh. The man fainted and had no time to control the Yin insect.
Finally, he was eaten up by the Yin insect.
He died.
After solving the case, Li Changxiao asked curiously: "Tell me, since we both have the Qiao Dao, why doesn't he become a warrior?"
Zhang Mo explained: "It's not that easy for a warrior. I looked at it and found that he was indeed a warrior at the beginning, but his mysterious orifice was incomplete and his path to becoming a warrior was cut off. He had no choice but to use his mysterious orifice to foster Yinworms in order to extend his life."
"Unfortunately, this method of extending life is limited after all, and it still comes at the expense of flesh and blood. I think his life is about to end. Even if this doesn't happen, he is not far from death."
Li Changxiao remained silent. The world has changed so much now that he has only seen a small part of it.
Lijiu City is a big city.
This kind of big city, where the storms gather and strange things happen constantly, is the first choice for observing the world today. Although the Jihua Sect has been disbanded, it has to be said that even with that little legacy, it is enough for the place to have outstanding people emerge one after another.
The case was solved.
That couple did not commit a heinous crime, but how to deal with it depends on the wishes of the elders in the Dayan Hua Sect.
Li Changxiao suddenly said: "Even if his life is approaching, why did he drink that wine? Is it because he is greedy for beauty?"
Hearing this, Zhang Mo also felt a little unreasonable.
Li Chang smiled and reminded: "Is it to extend your life?"
These words flashed through Zhang Mo's mind like a flash of lightning.
A skinny man cannot be greedy for beauty.
His life span is approaching, and the possibility of extending his life is much greater.
She recalled what the skinny man said before he died:
"You are a life-stealing thief. If you don't do business honestly, you stole my life from me."
This sentence sounds very normal at first.
But looking back now.
Doing business?
Do you really mean buying wine?
Or buy something else? Something that can extend your life?
This is the thought.
Zhang Mo immediately turned around and walked towards the dungeon again.
Li Changxiao had a smile on his face, Lijiu City was a bit more exciting than he imagined.
