The pharmacist's counterattack

After everyone left, Pei Xuanqing looked for Mu Danchi alone, "Brother Mu seemed to have some doubts just now, is there something wrong with the souls of these mortals?"

Mu Danchi didn't expect Pei Xuanqing to be so keen, but his fleeting hesitation was also noticed, and he said with a wry smile: "It's not just their souls, you know that our Mu family specially guides and sends the souls of the fallen soldiers guarding the South China Sea." , I have participated in family sacrificial activities for a long time, and it is rare to see the souls of fallen soldiers who are completely white after a new death, without resentment, but this time, the souls I attracted are basically without resentment, so we don’t need to send them away Most of it has passed away.”

"That's not to say it's bad. After all, the soldiers can go to life without suffering. This is what everyone likes to see. But the soldiers who died on the battlefield will be affected by the bloody aura on the battlefield, and they died at the hands of sea beasts. , it is very difficult for someone to let go immediately after death without any grudges, and the current situation is really weird."

After hearing this, Pei Xuanqing said: "This situation is like the souls of those mortals who died in the city?"

Mu Danchi nodded, "I don't understand."

After thinking about it for a while, Pei Xuanyi said, "Then let's assume the reasons for this situation. One is a coincidence. It may be that there is a treasure that can purify the soul's resentment on a large scale in the South China Sea, or it may be other harmless reasons. The second is Man-made, if it is man-made, brother Mu thinks it might be by some means."

Mu Danchi followed Pei Xuanyi's words and thought for a while: "Either the opponent is a powerful person who has mastered a powerful purification technique, or someone used some special magic weapon, magic circle, etc. to purify such resentment." gone."

Speaking of this, he hesitated for a while and then said: "There is one last possibility, that is, there are people who specialize in this kind of exercise to extract resentment. But although this method is effective for eliminating resentment, it will cause damage to the soul. A certain amount of damage, it’s okay if you don’t resist, but if you resist, it may even turn your soul into a dementia, and it will be affected to some extent after death.”

Pei Xuanqing said: "Brother Mu, can you tell the difference?"

Mu Danchi shook his head regretfully: "I don't have this ability yet, it needs a powerful elder in the family to do it. And it's a little difficult to distinguish, unless Yihao encounters a damaged soul, and the reason can be solved smoothly."

After pondering for a moment, Pei Xuanqing said: "Tomorrow is the time when the altar of the Mu family will be opened, and the souls of many soldiers should be attracted here. Could you please ask your elders to investigate?"

Mu Danchi nodded: "That's for sure, that's exactly what I mean."

"Then there is Brother Lao Mu, and we will check the others here, and if we have any clues, we will notify Brother Mu." Pei Xuanqing said.

After returning to the inn, Pei Xuanqing told Lin Yi and Li Mingtang what Mu Danchi said.

"How could this be? Is someone playing tricks?"

Pei Xuanyi said: "It's still not sure which reason caused it. We will continue to investigate the murder of the siren, and we will make a conclusion after the investigation by Mu's parents tomorrow."

Li Mingtong said: "Alright, then according to what I said last night, today I will focus on asking you to inquire and find out if there is any connection between those dead mortals."

It is also strange that the person who died was not the shop owner, but the shopkeeper, clerk, and helper.

The crowd quickly dispersed and continued to investigate in the city.

Lin Yi and the others searched the city again, this time he and Pei Xuanqing were going to find Wu Zuo.

"... I have handled seven or eight corpses, all of which were torn apart. As for the defect you mentioned... I actually have doubts, then

Most of the seven or eight were torn too severely, and I couldn’t see it. Only a few of the two that were not so serious seemed to be a bit of a defect in the heart. I thought it was just caused by being torn. . "

Lin Yi and the others found a coffin to collect seven or eight of them. If Lin Yi and the others hadn't found them, the coffin would not have been really suspicious. After all, the body was severely torn, but after being reminded by Lin Yi and the others, he But I remembered it again.

"Is there a check on the location of the dantian?" Lin Yi asked.

Wu Zuo said: "I didn't pay much attention to that position. To be honest, I have dealt with seven or eight such corpses in a row. Even I feel a little bit unbearable. I just want to finish splicing their corpses quickly, so I can do it sooner." relief."

Ou Zuo, who was used to seeing life and death, also felt that the death of the person killed by the sea monster was too tragic.

Although he was able to confirm that there were only a few abnormalities in the two corpses, Lin Yi's conclusion has been confirmed more and more. After getting some similar doubts from other authors, this point is basically confirmed. .

The sea monster kills something for the heart and dantian of those killed, and the tearing of the body is just to cover up

"What exactly did the sea monster take away?" Lin Yi had no idea.

"It's still early, let's look elsewhere." Pei Xuanqing said.

After chatting with the assistant in the city, Lin Yi and Pei Xuanqing went to help other people find out the connections behind those dead people, and it was necessary to deal with the family members of those people.

The two first went back to the house yesterday, this time they did not receive any cold reception from the boss' brother, but the other party was very concerned about the progress of Lin Yi's investigation; "But did you catch the sea monster?"

Lin Yi shook his head: "Still investigating, we came here to talk about two things, one of which needs your help."

The boss's younger brother showed a disappointed look on his face, but because of what Lin Yi and the others discovered yesterday, he has some feelings for Lin Yi and the others.

Trust, no longer so repulsive: "You can ask, but I don't understand, why don't you go after the sea monster and ask us.

"Because the people who died in the city are the bosses of various shops, or shopkeepers, buddies, and helpers in the shops, there seems to be a certain connection. We want to know the root cause of why the sea monster killed these people." Lin Yidao .

The owner's younger brother's face was not very good for a moment, because he also owns a shop under his own name, and now he also manages his brother's shop...

"You said they killed people who had shops at home?"

"It's not just the person who owns the store, the shopkeeper in the store, or some guy or helper."

The face of the boss's younger brother was a little pale. Didn't the sea monster kill people? Could it be that it still picks people? "

"This is what we want to investigate," Lin Yi thought for a while, and then revealed something in his words, so as to give the man in front of him some oppression, so that he can cooperate as soon as possible, and said: "The sea monster is very cunning, there are so many people in the city. The cultivators have not caught it during the patrol, if we can find the reason as soon as possible from the root cause, it may help us catch it quickly and save other people in the city."

The younger brother of the boss really seemed a little anxious after hearing this, "But how can this be connected? We don't know many people who were killed by the sea monster."

do not know?Lin Yi frowned slightly: "How many people do you know? Do you have any common experiences?"

The owner's younger brother probably mentioned some people he knew, basically shop owners, and said: "There are a lot of common experiences, after all, Jing opened a shop in the city, and we are all mortals, and it is common to help each other. "

"What's special? You'd better think about it carefully." Lin Yi said.

The boss' brother thought hard for a while: "How about you give me a direction?"

Lin Yidao For example, you all have a certain secret in common that may involve the siren. "

The boss's brother frowned: "Isn't that right? We are all mortals. The sea monster has monster power and is a foreign race. If it angers the other party, it can be photographed with a slap. At least my brother and I don't have any secrets about the sea monster."

"It doesn't have to be a secret, as long as it's about sea monsters, don't let it go." Pei Xuanqing said.

This is easier, the boss brother said: "After all, our place is far from the sea, and everyone will definitely discuss the sea monster on weekdays."

thing.In the past, when the sea beasts did not riot and hurt people, the empire opened the port, and everyone did business with sea beasts, such as my brother

Some grocery stores, some of which are sea goods exchanged from sea beasts.However, the seaside has not been peaceful in the past two years, and these exchanges have gradually stopped.

After the massacre of sea beasts, we dare not go to the sea. "

"Have you ever done business with sea beasts?" Lin Yi asked, "Did anyone else do business with you?"

The younger brother of the boss thought about it for a while: "There should be more or less. Is there a problem with this? In these coastal cities,

We are not the only ones who have done business with sea beasts, anyone who does business, as long as they can touch it, has basically dealt with sea beasts."

"Aren't you afraid of sea beasts?" Lin Yi asked.

The boss' younger brother said: "At that time, the sea beasts didn't hurt people, and there were monks in charge, so they didn't dare to do anything. We are still safe."

Apart from doing business, the boss brother can't speak up.

Lin Yi didn't continue to ask any more questions, and only told him to go to the inn where they were staying to inform them as soon as possible if he thought of anything else.

"One more thing, it's about your bodies." Lin Yi said.

The boss' brother was puzzled: "Our body?"

Lin Yidao 1 "I am a pharmacist, can you reach out and let me check?"

The boss' brother heard that he was a pharmacist, his eyes widened, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he came to his senses, and quickly took out his hand, with a much more respectful attitude than before: "So you are a pharmacist, how disrespectful you were before, please ask Mr. Excuse me, please please."

Lin Yi nodded, and put his finger on the boss' brother's wrist.

He wanted to check this person's body, firstly, because of what he saw yesterday, the body of the boss' brother and most of the family members were bleak.The second is that the words of the boss' younger brother just now clearly indicated that he was also in business just like the dead boss. If you take the opportunity to check this person's body, you may be able to find something special. The focus is on the position of the heart and dantian.

The gold thread quickly penetrated into the boss's younger brother's body, heading towards the heart and dantian...
