Chapter 36: Killing Stone
Before Liao Huarong could react, he was thrown to the ground by a force. The moment his hands were pinched, Senran's white teeth, mixed with bloody smell, had already arrived near the artery on his neck.
"...How is it, do you think you're going to die?"
Just as he tightened his muscles and was about to resist hard, Li Taiyuan's joking voice suddenly came from his ears.
Liao Huarong was stunned and his strength was immediately removed. Although he still looked terrifying, as if he was not a human or a ghost just now, Li Taiyuan's consciousness seemed not to be affected.
He pulled Liao Huarong up from the ground, pointed at his face and said curiously: "Why is this look at me? Am I scary now?"
"Nonsense. Just look in the mirror yourself."
Liao Huarong breathed a sigh of relief and was unwilling to worry about the other party's childish intimidation just now.
His eyes looked at Li Taiyuan and asked skeptically: "How do you feel now?"
"It's not bad, my body seems to fit very well with this mask."
Li Taiyuan spread his hands, looked at his whole body with satisfaction, and then touched his face a few more times. Now that the mask has completely melted into his flesh and blood, this binding method is much more convenient for Li Taiyuan.
As he merged with the cursed thing, all the information about it appeared in Li Taiyuan's mind: as he speculated at the beginning, this mask full of evil spirit was not the traditional God of Inari.
Its raw materials are very special, and it comes from the legendary famous Curse Stone and Life Stone.
According to legend, at the end of the Heian era, the nine-tailed demon fox Tamamomae suffered a disaster in the world. The army led by the samurai Sui Akira Miura took 200,000 people as sacrifices. All the demon subdued people exhausted their entire cultivation and launched the magic arrows of Master Jianzhen, which then shot them to death.
But the ambition and obsession of the Nine-tailed Fox did not disappear. The strong resentment turned Tamamoma's soul into a killing stone that was seven feet high and more than four feet high, and stayed in Nasuno.
The villagers around him were full of fear of him. During this period, they invited monks to suppress his soul many times, but they were all harmed by him.
It was not until two hundred years later that a monk named Xuan Weng appeared, who destroyed the killing stone with a vajra hammer. The fragments of the killing stone scattered all over the country, and this completely eliminated the resentful spirit sealed in the Nine-tailed Fox.
Based on the news clues previously investigated and the talismans found in the principal's office, Li Taiyuan speculated that after frequent haunting in Shenyue Primary School, principal Hideo Takizawa was also cursed.
In order to save his life, he specially found this mask made of fragments of life-destroying stones, trying to use it to fight against the evil spirits who seek life.
But he finally found that he had underestimated the power of the curse.
After Long Ze Hideo's death, the mask became a curse under the influence of resentment; by chance, it fell into Takeshi Nakamura's hands again.
"You have said a lot. Whether it is Takizawa Hideo or Nakamura Takeshi, the killing stone cannot play its best effect in the hands of ordinary people. Cursed objects are actually more suitable for special physiques like ours."
Li Taiyuan said, turning around and coming to the woven bag containing the body of the Southern Chaobu.
Liao Huarong bent down and checked the condition of the skeleton.
"There are old scratches under the fifth rib on the left side of the corpse, which seems to be caused by a narrow knife. Although the internal organs have long corroded and disappeared, from the perspective of position, this knife stabbed the heart, which was a fatal injury to the death of Nanchaoya." Liao Huarong analyzed.
"Yes, it's very professional." Li Taiyuan patted the other person on the shoulder.
He looked at the body and continued to add: "Look, in addition to the fatal injuries, Nan Chaoya's body was beaten and abused several times after his death. But these scars and cracks were all caused diagonally from the upper left."
As soon as Li Taiyuan finished speaking, Liao Huarong seemed to have thought of something.
The two of them took out the wreckage in their backpack at the same time, and put four pieces of corpses together. Through the cross-sectional comparison of the broken opening, they found that the two people killed Misaki Mai and Nan Aoya were actually two people.
"The Southern Chao Ya was not killed by the emperor in the house. When Misaki Mai was dismembered, he used his right hand; but the one who killed the Southern Chao Ya was a left-handed man." Li Taiyuan paused, rubbed his chin and said:
"Before this, Kana Aida and I had been to Hideo Takizawa's office. Judging from the furnishings in his house and the placement of documents on his desk, Hideo Takizawa was not the real murderer. When his ghost was chasing me in the warehouse, I also saw with my own eyes that it was holding a weapon with his right hand. It turned out that from the beginning, we thought this too simple."
At this moment, in Li Taiyuan's eyes, the surface of the already rotten skeleton of Nanchao was surrounded by a faint gray mist.
Although Nan Chaoya has died tragically, the remnants of her body exuded are not the same as the power that enveloped Shenyue Primary School.
The Southern Dynasty buds are not the source of the curse. In fact, Kana's previous conjectures were completely wrong.
This girl is just an innocent victim. If anyone who died suddenly could turn into a ghost to take revenge, the world would probably have been completely in chaos.
Unless it is blessed by a unique geographical environment and other factors, such as the red and white collision that I encountered before, and the Yuhe Village was unable to produce ghosts; otherwise, the hatred of Nan Chaoya alone is not enough to form such a powerful curse and create multiple chaotic parallel time and space.
There is only one reason that can explain this phenomenon.
"Haha. Lao Liao, it seems that I have been trying to save you this time." Li Taiyuan's mouth raised slightly.
He turned around and looked at Liao Huarong, who seemed to understand Li Taiyuan's meaning and said in a deep voice: "Well, the organization probably didn't expect that Shenyue Primary School would be a place of nothingness."
"Sure enough, the overseas intelligence network almost made a difference." Li Taiyuan shrugged.
The organization only investigated the murder case of the Aichi family, but did not trace the origin and discovered the truth behind it.
Before the operation began, Li Taiyuan and Chu Yi drove to the apartment where Jane Yu lived, and visited nearby neighbors and his close friends separately.
Without exception, these people have a very high opinion of the Imperial House before the murder.
During his teaching at Shenyue Primary School, Jade Yu will take some children home for academic tutoring, and wait until their parents get off work before picking up their children from their homes.
The couple at home are kind and very caring. The couple not only have a firm Buddhist belief, but also insist on participating in public welfare activities for a long time.
In order to give back to society, they donated most of their income. Therefore, although the couple has a good income, their lives are very simple.
This information has been verified in Li Taiyuan's previous dreams: the couples at home are devout Buddhists, and they have the habit of burning incense at home, and the Thangkas and statues of gods are everywhere.
As for Nandaoya and Misaki Mai, they are children who often go to the house to make up for the lessons.
The neighbors around have proved that they often see luxury cars parked near the apartment in the evening. Parents always express their gratitude to the couple in the house when picking up their children home.
Without the influence of the Black Tai Sui, the Jade-Jianyu would not become a crazy murderer without any warning.
If it was really the house killing Nan Chaoya, the police at that time would not have easily ruled out the suspicion of the house; and the intelligence departments established overseas would not have been able to find any clues about Black Tai Sui.
