Chapter 11
Chapter 11
When they left the county seat, a group of Chi family children in uniform golden school uniforms came with their swords. When they saw Qin Chuhan, they stopped to say hello. Lu Wanfeng saw Chi Xiaohan in the team. Although it was strange why Qin Chuhan had a poor scholar by his side, but it seemed that he had something important to do, so he left in a hurry after only talking a few words.
Lu Wanfeng held back his laughter. When he met Chi Xiaohan just now, his face was a little downcast, and the younger brother of the Patriarch of the Chi family was not the leader of the team. Needless to say, he must have been caught by his sister and punished him to come out to patrol with the team.
The next long distance was safe and sound, and half a month later they finally set foot on the border of the Lu family in the south of the Yangtze River.
Lu Wanfeng bid farewell to Qin Chuhan: "Jiangnan has arrived, and I will part with the Taoist priest. The green mountains will not change and the green water will flow forever. See you in the future."
Qin Chuhan didn't say a word, as if he came without a trace of dust, and left without a sound.
Linhe Water Pavilion, arcades across the street, adjacent streets and bridges, full of tourists, depicting the delicate and long Jiangnan from every detail.The main residence of the Lu family is located in Jiangquan, the most prosperous city in the vicinity. Various industries are well-developed.
Lu Wanfeng was in a heavy heart when he rushed into Jiangquan City. From the street vendor's reading between the lines, he learned that his father had not been buried since his death, that his eldest brother Lu Jianglin had inherited the position of head of the family, and that arrest warrants for him had been issued repeatedly. The amount of the reward offered has also been turned over and over again.
Lu Er, the most famous dandy in Jiangquan City in the past, has now become a notorious father-killer and rebellious son. Everyone shouts and beats him like a mouse crossing the street. Even young children play the game of catching Lu Er when they play house game.
Suddenly he was alone again, Lu Wanfeng was sad for a while, but he had calmed down a lot along the way, as if nothing had happened, he went to the inn to ask for a room, and soon he calmed down and went to the inn lobby to inquire about news.
The previous head of the Lu family was assassinated and died. His wife never got sick again. The only remaining eldest son took care of the entire Lu family. The marriage of the daughter of the Ling family can only be delayed again and again.
Lu Wanfeng almost spit out his tea, Uncle Ling wants to marry Qiu Yu to his elder brother?So sudden!
After listening for a while, he didn't hear any more useful news, so he returned to his room and decided to sneak back home tonight.
In the middle of the night, he masked his face and put on a black stealth suit, calculated the changing time of guard disciples at home, and entered the inner house with ease.
The body of the father is stored in the Lu family ancestral hall. The Xuan family has a custom. Before the death of the patriarch, it needs to be parked for 49 days.Now 45 days have passed, and my father will be buried in three days.
The dim light of the ever-burning lamp was burning quietly, and the gate of the ancestral hall was wide open, so that if the soul returned to its place in advance, there would be a door for entry. There were patrolling disciples of the Lu family around him, so he nimbly slipped into the ancestral hall through the gap of sight.
This place is still as it is in memory. Just over three months ago, he was punished to kneel here because of a mistake, but there was a brand new ranking in the confession, which read "Lu Yuan, the fourth patriarch of the Lu family".
The father's coffin was placed in the center of the ancestral hall, and the semi-transparent ice coffin made of Kunlun cold jade still preserved the body well in the hot summer.The faint moonlight blurred his vision, but Lu Wanfeng could still see his father lying in it, with a serene face he had never seen before, and the shroud he had packed and changed still looked tall and thick on him, as if he would be able to do so in the next second. Opening his eyes, he hated iron and iron to give himself a family law.
But he knows it's impossible, people cannot be resurrected after death, what he can do now is to give justice to his father and give himself innocence.
He knelt down and kowtowed three times to his father. He bit his finger, drew blood formations in the southeast, north and south of the coffin, quietly removed the coffin lid, and dripped another drop between his father's eyebrows. He muttered in his heart. Incantation, I saw the blood array light up a faint red light, and then fell completely silent.
He was startled, a bad pre-cold came out, and tried several times, but the blood array did not respond.
The soul summoning array can't recruit souls!
Because of his special physique, he learned a lot of spells related to ghosts from some ancient methods. There is nothing wrong with that. The set of debriefing is just a statement of the Xuan clan's status. In reincarnation, if the soul cannot be recruited, there are only two possibilities. First, the soul is scattered when it dies; second, the soul is captured and hidden.
Both possibilities are extremely cruel, but the latter is more threatening. There are many people who practice crooked sorcery in this world, and many of them are villains who kill people and make little ghosts for their manipulation. Lu Yuan was the head of the family during his lifetime , the skill is superb, if it is captured by the gangsters and turned into a ghost, it is definitely a very terrible thing!
It's impossible for the Lu family not to have tried calling back the soul after death, so why didn't they find anything abnormal?
He leaned down and gently opened his father's skirt, and the whip wounds that were deep into the bones came into view. He still remembered the long whip of the murderer that night. Because of digging out the wound left by Yuan Dan.The wound was two fingers wide, clean and clean, and there were no clues.
Just as he was about to close his clothes, the light of the amethyst swept across his father's left chest. Lu Wanfeng stopped his hand suddenly, took the stone and looked closer. Sure enough, he found many small spots of light on his father's heart. He reached out and touched it. Weird touch.
Something was wrong, the luminous dot could be seen but could not be touched, he changed several methods, and finally squeezed out a small needle-shaped transparent substance with his thumb and forefinger.Looking at the place where something was squeezed out, there was nothing to fill it up, and the deep wound inside was finally exposed, thin and deep, extending all the way to the heart.
He kneaded the little thing between his thumbs, no matter how he deformed it, as long as he let go of his hand, it would return to its original shape, soft and bouncy, something he had never seen before.
Putting it in his inner pocket, he took a picture of his father's heart again, and there were countless small things on it, which would disappear if the amethyst stone was removed.
No one should have discovered this except myself. The heart pulse is connected to every corner of the body. The father died of whips, and the murderer attacked the heart of the deceased after killing the man. The purpose was very suspicious.
He checked his father's whole body again, and sure enough, he found something unusual in his mouth.
Take out the South China Sea night pearl contained in the mouth, the wall of the cavity is the same, but the hard-to-see part of the throat cavity seems to have been scraped by a plow, and the turned-up throat meat is messed up, and now it has condensed into a ball to block the throat. It can be seen that it used to be A foreign body was entangled in the father's esophagus forcibly.
Can't figure it out, can't figure it out!
Even after discovering these things, I still can't make sense of my thoughts. Duopill, heart, foreign object, long whip, two people... What kind of hatred is there to kill a person in such a cruel way?
Suddenly there were footsteps outside the door, he hurriedly packed up the coffin lid to wipe off the blood, and jumped into the shadow of the beam.
It was Lu Jianglin and Yin Xiao who came in.
"Mom, you're inconvenient, it's better not to get out of bed." Lu Jianglin supported his mother, his tone soft and worried.
"Recently, my mind has become more and more restless, and I don't feel at ease if I don't take a look at it." Yin Xiao crawled on the jade coffin, staring at the husband who would never wake up inside, touching his eyebrows and eyes through the coffin , Tears couldn't stop rushing out, "Lu Yuan, you owe me this lifetime, how dare you die first, how dare you..."
Kunlun Hanyu was extremely cold, and his mother was weak. Lu Jianglin persuaded her to get up, hugged her and comforted her: "Mother, don't be too sad, it's not good for your health."
Yin Xiao suddenly screamed: "It's all that Lu Wanfeng! He killed your father! We raised him so much, we didn't expect him to be a white-eyed wolf who only wants revenge!"
Lu Jianglin patted his mother on the back and said seriously: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely arrest my second brother and let him give us an explanation!"
"What second brother! He's not your second brother! He doesn't..." Gradually, her reason returned to her place, and she didn't continue, crying uncontrollably.
The mother and son stayed together for a while, and the ancestral hall was very air-conditioned at night, but Lu Jianglin insisted on persuading his mother to leave.
It took Lu Wanfeng a while to get down from the beam, quietly looked at his father's body, knelt down and kowtowed again, then turned and left.
Unable to recruit his father's soul, and the clues he found couldn't be connected together, he decided to go to the study where the crime happened.
Everything in the world can be cultivated, including flowers and plants, especially the creatures planted in the Taoist fairy family, which absorb spiritual energy all the year round, and cultivate much faster.A lot of plants were planted in front of the Lu family's study, he quietly avoided all the inspecting disciples, and hid behind the flowers with a low body, concentrating on calling.
A few balls of yellow light rise faintly from the flowers in front of me, they are the essence of flowers and plants.
Lu Wanfeng connected with Jingpo's thoughts, and asked silently: "One and a half months ago, the head of the Lu family was assassinated here, did you see it?"
"No..." "No..." "Yes..."
Essence is the first form in the early stage of cultivation. It has not yet been truly cultivated, and it can barely communicate, but it is very difficult to express. It is the first time for a few groups of flower and plant essences to talk to humans, and they compete to answer, but they are dizzy.
Lu Wanfeng said: "Who saw it? Tell me who saw it."
A group of spirits jumped out and replied: "Two, kill the master and run away!"
"Which direction?"
The spirit flickered to guide the northwest.
"Thank you, little ones, come and eat something." Lu Wanfeng smiled slightly, some spiritual energy gathered in his palm, and several spirits flew over happily.
He thought: Fortunately, at least not for nothing.
