Chapter 6: ugly meat tree
"The water is gone! The water is gone!"
A diving soldier is running down the street beating a gong.
Not far away, a fire burst into the sky, dispelling the darkness, causing the neighbors to scream in panic.
A group of diving soldiers hurriedly rushed to put out the fire, carrying water bags, tent ropes, clamshells and other tools.
Qin Shaoyou had a bad premonition in his heart, stopped the diving soldier who was beating the gong, and asked, "Where is the fire?"
The diving soldier who was stopped wanted to curse, but after seeing Qin Shaoyou's uniform, he quickly swallowed the curse and hurriedly replied, "Sir, it's Ya Tantang."
"what?"
Zhu Xiucai was shocked when he heard the words.
They were going to Yatantang to investigate the ghost in the painting, but Yatantang went away?
I'm afraid it's not a fire, but someone deliberately set the fire to destroy the clues, right?
"How is the fire?" Zhu Xiucai hurriedly asked.
Actually, you don't need to ask, just by looking at the sky-high fire, you know that the fire is definitely not small.
Sure enough, the diving soldiers replied: "The fire is very big, and the Yatan Hall and the printing workshop behind it have been burned. We can't save it. We can only try our best to stop the fire and prevent the surrounding houses from being affected."
After asking and understanding the situation, Qin Shaoyou asked the diving soldier to continue beating the gong as a warning, while he took his subordinates and rushed to the vicinity of Yatan Hall, where he saw the raging fire engulfing Yatan Hall with his own eyes.
"My lord, this fire came so coincidentally." Zhu Xiucai said solemnly.
Qin Shaoyou nodded. He didn't need to remind him of this situation. He immediately ordered: "Go and find out where the people in Yatantang are, and bring them back to the Town Demon Division for interrogation!"
"Yes." Zhu Xiucai immediately took the order and brought a few wrestlers to investigate.
Monk Ma also wanted to follow, but Qin Shaoyou stayed by his side.
And Zhu Xiucai was really good at doing things, and it didn't take much time to find all the people in Yatantang.
These people are also lucky. Although many of them were burned, their lives are safe.
However, when they heard that they were going to be taken to the Demon Suppression Division for questioning, they were all panicked, and some even wanted to escape.
Zhu Xiucai immediately realized that there was something wrong with this group of people, and without any hesitation, he immediately summoned the fighters to take out the chains to bind them, and escorted them back to the Town Demon Division for a surprise interrogation.
Qin Shaoyou, who stayed at the fire scene, waited until the fire was put out, and went into the ruins with Monk Ma and others to investigate.
The result was nothing.
This fire completely burned the inside and outside of the Yatan Hall, leaving no clues.
Back at the Demon Suppression Division, the interrogation of Zhu Xiucai and others was over.
The group of people in Ya Tantang did not know the cause of the fire, nor did they know about the ghost in the painting.
However, they are all believers of the Black Lotus Sect, and they use Yatan Hall to quietly promote their teachings in the city and develop their followers.
After listening to the report with Qin Shaoyou, Monk Ma raised his eyebrows and guessed, "So, the ghost in the painting was created by the Black Lotus Sect?"
"uncertain."
Qin Shaoyou thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "If the ghost in the painting is caused by the Black Lotus Sect, then when they create evidence of the destruction of the fire, they should get rid of these believers too, and shouldn't leave such a big flaw for us. "
This made sense. Monk Ma nodded, and then asked, "Where did the ghost in the painting come from?"
Qin Shaoyou sighed: "There may be clues left in the Yatan Hall, but unfortunately it was destroyed by a fire."
After a pause, he asked Zhu Xiucai again: "To whom did Yatantang sell the **** books recently published? Who are the people in the city who were developed by them to join the Black Lotus Sect?"
Zhu Xiucai replied: "These people have a hard mouth and are only willing to explain the matter of the Erotic Palace Book. They will not utter a word for the developing Black Lotus Sect believers, no matter how they are tortured. There are many people who buy Erotic Palace Books, and they only know part of it. Regarding the situation of the regular customers, I have already sent someone to investigate the familiar customers at the address they gave. Calculate the time, it is almost time to come back. "
Just as he was talking, he saw several figures rushing into the bad room.
It was the wrestler sent by Zhu Xiucai.
Seeing them, Zhu Xiucai hurriedly got up and asked, "How is it? Did you find anything?"
Several warriors first marched to Qin Shao’s salute, and then reported: “When we arrived at the familiar Hakka in Yatantang, some people had already been killed, and the time of their death was not consistent. God is dead..."
Monk Ma frowned, interjected and asked, "Died a few days ago? Why didn't the family come to my Demon Suppression Division to report the crime?"
Lux replied, "Because there are no scars on the bodies of the deceased, there is no problem from the outside. The family members only thought that they were suddenly ill, and they didn't know that they had provoked evil spirits."
Monk Ma nodded and agreed with this reason.
Lux continued to report:
"We examined the bodies of the deceased and found that although they had no trauma, they had suffered excessive blood loss, and some of the bodies had sunken chests, and it was suspected that their hearts had been removed.
We also searched these people's homes, but we didn't find any useful clues. We only found the **** books they bought at Yatantang. In the latest book, there are obviously missing characters. "
After all, the warriors took out a few books and handed them over to Qin Shaoyou.
Qin Shaoyou flipped through it and handed it to Zhu Xiucai, who just glanced at it and said with certainty, "There are indeed missing characters. The most outstanding characters in these books are all gone."
"It is estimated that the ghost in the painting escaped after harming the person." Qin Shaoyou nodded and concluded.
"There are a few regular customers who haven't been killed for the time being. We also brought back all the **** books they bought."
The Luxes took out several other books.
But a group of people gathered around and studied for a long time, but they didn't find any problems.
Qin Shaoyou didn't give up, put these books on the desk in the poor room, pulled over a stool, and sat beside him.
But he wanted to sit back and wait for the ghost in the painting to come out.
One is to search for clues, and the other is to kill and eat.
Zhu Xiucai and others also stayed here and followed him.
I don't know if they want to kill a ghost or get a ghost.
After waiting for a while, there were no abnormality in the several **** books, but there was a sudden alarm sound from outside the bad room.
Is someone warning?
And listening to the voice, it seems to be in the Demon Suppression Division?
What happened? !
Everyone was surprised.
Zhu Xiucai disappeared in a flash. After a while, he returned from the outside and brought inquiring news: "It's the prison that is warning!"
"Jail?!"
The faces of everyone became more and more ugly.
The only people detained in the Zhen Yaosi prison tonight are the people from Ya Tan Tang.
Could it be that these people caused trouble?
Or did the accomplices of the Black Lotus Sect come to rob the prison?
No matter what the reason is, you must rush over to see it.
Qin Shaoyou was careful, and when he went out, he did not forget to instruct Monk Ma to bring the **** book, so that when they went to the prison, these **** books would make trouble again.
When they arrived at the gate of the prison, there were already many night watchmen here, and even the nightclub flag appeared on the scene.
Seeing Qin Shaoyou, the nightclub flag's eyes lit up and greeted, "Qin Xiaoqi, you are here too, just in time, come with me to the prison to have a look."
Qin Shaoyou knew that this general banner was a close associate of Xue Qingshan, and it was a good intention to call him into the prison together.
Although the situation in the prison is unknown, there are multiple restrictions placed by the Suppressing Demon, so even if something really happens, they can deal with the past.
Qin Shaoyou weighed a little, then clenched the knife and followed the general flag into the prison.
On the way, he also asked for a shield from the night watchman in charge of vigilance.
Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and the others followed Qin Shaoyou without any hesitation.
Entering the prison, the light inside was dark, and before everyone could see what was going on, they first smelled a strong stench of blood, which made people nauseous.
Immediately afterwards, there were bursts of screams and screams that made the scalp numb.
After they got used to the light in the prison, Qin Shaoyou and the others saw that there was an ugly monster in the Demon Suppression Division's cell.
It looked like a strange tree made of flesh and blood.
The trunk is composed of human bodies, which seem to be piled up randomly, but between the bodies, there are strange granulations with pus and blood connected, as if someone forcibly stitched them together.
And the pieces of human hands and feet are the branches of the flesh tree. A human head is its stamen and fruit.
Whether it is hands, feet or heads, they are all alive!
The hands and feet were constantly dancing, throwing out patches of pus and blood, polluting the surrounding environment.
The head of the person was screaming with its mouth wide open, spewing out a black mist and stench.
The stench of blood that Qin Shaoyou and the others smelled, the screams and screams they heard, all originated from this ugly meat tree!
Such a bizarre and bizarre scene made everyone who was used to seeing ghosts in the town of Yaosi couldn't help but feel agitated.
