Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 55 Something Happened (Desperately Begging for a First Order)
After working in the police department's waifang, Chen Jin's vision and insight greatly improved.Although the intelligence files that come into contact with at hand are all out of date after a certain screening, the outdated news still has a certain value in its own information.Just like reading that outdated newspaper, you can still find useful things from different angles.

The case file information collected by the Patrol Department of the Gaozhou Prefecture mainly focuses on what happened in the barren land in the south of the Lingnan Mountains. wait.

Among them, the five immortals on Wuling are included.

It was only after reading the relevant files that Chen Jin knew that the so-called "Five Immortals" were also introduced from other places.

In ancient times, the Lingnan area was not only a frontier wasteland, but could even be called a "wilderness", an uncivilized land.Later, it was conquered and included in the territory, and it gradually developed.

Recording and filing is a basic official procedure. As long as the other party does not cause any serious disasters, the patrol department will not do anything, and everyone will not violate the river.

The government has its laws, the fairy family has its rules, and the rivers and lakes have their own principles.

At the beginning, Huang Daxian kept saying "the rules on the mountain", but he was not just talking about it; "the affairs of the rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes" is also one of the generally recognized rules.

Today, Chen Jin was flipping through a case file, but saw Shen Ming rushing in from outside, his face was a little flustered, and he said out of breath: "Something happened."

Zhang Tong and Sun Zan put down their work, gathered around and asked, "What happened?"

Shen Mingdao: "Something happened in the city."

Zhang Tong curled his mouth: "Aren't you talking nonsense, if you say it, it means you didn't say it."

Shen Ming breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, I also heard what Xing Butou said just now."

The Gaozhou Prefecture Patrol Department has only two arresters, and Xing is one of them.

Hearing the name of Xing Tutou, Zhang Tong and Sun Zan were immediately awed.

Shen Ming began to talk: "A while ago, a few young people who originally studied the Fa at Wuling Taoist Temple went down the mountain for no reason. Together, we set up an escort agency, the name is rather resounding, called 'Weiyuan Escort Bureau'."

Hearing this, Chen Jin, who was sitting aside with an old god, frowned: Listen, why does it seem to have something to do with me?
Sun Zan asked: "A few brats are opening a new bodyguard agency in the city, can there be business?"

Shen Ming replied: "This Weiyuan Escort Agency was just opened, and the business was indeed bleak, and there were not many people. They went around to solicit business, and about five days ago, they received a strange order of darts. Guess what it is?"

This guy actually played a trick.

Zhang Tong hurriedly said: "Brother Shen, why don't you tell me quickly? At worst, we will invite you to lunch."

Shen Ming waited for this sentence: "The bodyguard is escorting a coffin to Mazi Mountain."

Hearing this, Zhang Tong and Sun Zan looked at each other in dismay, and couldn't help gasping: "Send the coffin to Mazi Mountain? They dare to take this dart?"

Mazi Mountain is a famous mass grave in Fucheng.

"Isn't it? Maybe it's because you're young and vigorous, and you're from a Taoist background, so you're not afraid of those things, and you want to make a name for yourself with this order; or maybe it's because the other party's offer is too high to refuse."

"How much did you give?"

Shen Ming extended a slap: "500 taels of silver."

This is indeed a high price in the dart industry.

"and after?"

Sun Zan asked.

Shen Ming continued: "The bodyguard master will pay half of the fee first, and then pay the other half after An Ran sends the coffin up the mountain. This belongs to the rules. After the people of the bodyguard bureau were ready, they started to set off, and the journey went smoothly."

Zhang Tong interjected: "Can it not go well? No matter how chaotic the world is, no one will come to make a coffin."

Shen Ming sighed: "That being said, accidents often happen suddenly."

Chen Jin, who was listening quietly at the side, suddenly remembered the famous saying: If there are no accidents, accidents will happen...

"They hurried all the way, and they were about to reach the foot of Mazi Mountain. However, during the transportation, someone in the escort agency heard the clear and crisp sound of objects colliding when the coffin was bumped, as if there were objects inside the coffin. There is a lot of gold and silver, so I became suspicious, suspecting that the bodyguard is taking advantage of the convenience of the coffin to smuggle property, and it may be stolen goods."

Zhang Tong questioned: "Can't it be a funeral object?"

Shen Ming said: "The people in the bodyguard bureau combined the weight of the coffin and the sound and movement. From this, it is inferred that it is impossible for ordinary people to have so many funerary objects in funerals. On that night, a bodyguard in charge of guarding the coffin couldn't bear it." In order to suppress the greed in his heart, he secretly opened the coffin. This opening is incredible..."

Sun Zan jumped to his feet: "Old Shen, are you going to leave the story here? What about next?"

Shen Ming waved his hand: "Why are you in such a hurry, let me speak slowly... After the bodyguard opened the coffin, he saw a corpse lying inside. It was a young woman wearing a shroud, very tall Beautiful, lifelike appearance. And beside him, the golden light is shining, full of ingots of gold ingots."

"With such a large amount of money, could it be that some rich family in the city went to the funeral? But it doesn't make sense. How can such a rich family use the escort to escort the coffin? They won't bury people in Mazi Mountain."

Zhang Tong was very suspicious.

Shen Ming lost his temper: "You are so good at interrupting, let you discuss it."

Zhang Tong hurriedly said: "It's not mine, brother Shen, please continue."

Shen Ming snorted: "That fellow was dazzled by the gold ingots, quickly took out several, put them in his arms, and then closed the lid of the coffin. But he made up his mind to remember where the other party was buried, and then Then sneak over to dig the grave and steal all the gold and silver buried with him."

Sun Zan said: "This person guards himself and steals, I'm afraid he will not end well."

"Isn't it? The next morning, the companions of the Escort discovered that he was missing. Then they searched around, and finally found his body in a nearby grove. His stomach was cut open, all internal organs were emptied, and he died It's very dire."

Shen Ming sighed: "He dares to take money from dead people, he really doesn't know how to live or die."

Zhang Tong couldn't help it again: "What happened in the future?"

"The people in the escort agency suspected that they had bumped into Xie Chong, so they wanted to hurry up and transport the coffin to the designated place for delivery. Unexpectedly, the coffin suddenly became so heavy that it crushed the carriage and fell to the ground. "

Sun Zan let out a cold breath: "The coffin falls to the ground, and the dead person turns over and gets covered in dirt. This is very ominous."

Chen Jin asked: "Isn't there a layer of coffin blocking it? It's not really touching the ground."

Sun Zan replied: "You don't understand this. For the deceased, the coffin is his clothes. When the coffin falls to the ground, it is equivalent to the body falling to the ground."

Zhang Tong glared: "Don't interrupt, let Lao Shen continue."

"The coffin fell to the ground and couldn't be carried, and everyone didn't know what to do. The accompanying escort got angry and said that someone from the escort must have moved the coffin, cursing. Everyone in the escort knew they were wrong, so they couldn't argue, so they had to continue. Discuss countermeasures. But until night, there is no feasible plan. Something happened again, and this time it was the bodyguard master who died in exactly the same way. This time, everyone panicked and didn't dare to stay there anymore. He is already dead, so he simply abandoned the coffin and fled back to the city."

Zhang Tong was stunned: "Is this the end?"

Shen Ming sneered and said: "It would be great if it was that simple. Those bodyguards who fled back to the bodyguard bureau recently encountered strange things one by one and died unexpectedly. So far, eight people have died. The remaining two were frightened." No, I ran to the Patrol Division to ask for help, and told Butou Xing what happened. Just now, Butou Xing has brought several policemen to handle the case."

Sun Zan frowned: "This is very strange, a ghost is a disaster? Doesn't it look like it?"

Zhang Tong spread his hands: "Anything involving evil spirits is difficult to explain. If you look at the case files in the cabinet, there are still many unresolved cases that have become unresolved cases. But I hope this matter can be resolved quickly, otherwise, more people will die .”

Evil?Ghosts and gods are indescribable and mysterious, which makes the folks have different opinions...

Chen Jin pondered slightly, and continued to read the file in his hand.
