Human life is a guide, folk taboos, extending life and borrowing lives, taboos within taboos

Time flies.

Luxia City, Canghai District, at the intersection of a residential area.

After driving all the way, Zhang Wei’s taxi stopped at this intersection.

Zhang Weigang got off the car.

Lu Lianxue, who was standing at the intersection waiting for Zhang Wei, came up to her. She had no ink marks and handed her mobile phone to Zhang Wei. On it was the information message sent by Lin Tong:

“Zhang Wei, we are in charge of Canghai District today. Search the community.”

Lu Lianxue said, pointing to a piece of information on her phone and continued:

“Captain Lin Tong read through the files last night, compared the three murder cases that occurred in our city, and found out that the person killed by this ghost exorcist , although there is no relationship or connection, Captain Lin Tong found out based on past files that these dead people had no contact with each other, but they were all people from old residential areas.” ”

This ghost exorcist is very smart, and specially chooses ordinary people’s homes. People who can even be considered poor are looking for these people to attack. Even if the person is killed, because they usually receive little attention, it is difficult to be discovered immediately after death.” ”

And ghost exorcists will not commit crimes in the same place. If a person has been killed in the district, the person who attacks next time will not choose the same district.” ”

So Captain Lin asked us to come to Canghai District. The ghost exorcists have not yet attacked anyone in this district, so it is possible that this place will become the exorcist. The enemy’s next target area.”

Zhang Wei nodded, took his phone and looked at it.

Lin Tong deserves to be the captain. Although he loves muscles, he doesn’t have enough brains to grow muscles. From the information given, he not only deduced the possible area of the Ghost Exorcist’s next range, but also found out the Ghost Exorcist’s range. Purpose.

“The five elements extend life?”

Looking at the introduction in the information, Zhang Wei’s eyes flashed with awe.

Since ancient times, it has been believed that using human life as an inducement has always been a taboo among the people, and extending life is the taboo among taboos, and this case involves both.

Whether it is ancient times or modern times, everyone knows that human life is limited, but there will always be people who do crazy things in order to extend their lifespan. The most common ones are the ancient emperors who did not hesitate to spend manpower and material resources to find the so-called longevity method. For example, Qin Shi Huang was looking for the elixir of life.

However, the cycle of life and death is a matter of course and cannot be broken so easily. If you break a taboo, you are bound to pay a price.

The five elements sustain life.

It is a way to extend one’s life, killing five people representing different attributes, and then using the lives of those five people to extend one’s life in a special way.

In numerology, people have attributes, such as metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. However, not everyone has a complete set of five elements. Some people may lack one of them. In order to make up for this attribute, people often add to their names, such as people who are short of water. , the name has three dots of water characters.

The so-called life and death have destiny. If people want to live, they naturally need life. What is destiny? The destiny of life. If you want to survive, you must have vitality. In Feng Shui, Yin and Yang and other academic studies, it has been said that everything in the world is the most important. It is formed from the basic five elements, which are the foundation of life.

For this reason, five kinds of people representing different attributes are used to complement the five elements and use the five elements to breed vitality. This is the way to sustain life through the five elements.

Also at this time.

Lu Lianxue noticed Zhang Wei’s gaze, discovered what he was looking at, and sighed:

“Are you surprised? I was also surprised when I saw it. I rarely come into contact with these. To learn more about the Five Elements Sustained Life, I watched “Double Pupils” “, “Detective Chinatown 1″ I learned that out of curiosity, I ran to ask my grandfather.” ”

I didn’t expect that there is such a method. Of course, the method is different from the one in the movie. Only those who really use the Five Elements can live longer.”

Zhang Weiqing nodded.

Since he has one-third of the knowledge of Longhu Mountain, which contains records of this method, he couldn’t help but respond:

“I’m very surprised. I looked at the Wei Daosi forum before and saw a post discussing life extension. Someone said this If you use the lives of others to extend your own life, this is no longer extending your life, this is borrowing it.”

“Take the lives of five people and lend them to yourself, and the life you borrowed is only for a few years. If you want to survive, you have to continue borrowing.”

He said.

He looked at the information sent by Lin Tong on Lu Lianxue’s phone. It not only recorded the murder case, but also previous case files.

A rough calculation.

A dozen living beings have died, the youngest of whom was only in his twenties. However, they are all dead and have been robbed of their lifespan by the exorcist.

As he learned the truth about the murder, Zhang Wei also understood the soul-suppressing talisman. The ghost exorcist was afraid that after killing people, those who died would be resentful and turn into ghosts to avenge themselves.

In order to get rid of them once and for all, he not only killed them, but also left them soul-suppressing symbols to suppress their souls at the place of death. Even if they became ghosts, they could not retaliate against themselves, and could only be trapped in that place without being reincarnated.

It seemed that he felt Lu Lianxue’s emotions.

As a member of the Ministry of Justice, the most disgusting thing is to see innocent people being killed, especially a ghost exorcist who has the blood of more than a dozen people.

Zhang Wei then rubbed her head and said,

“It’s okay. Just find him before he kills five people. And the five elements of life are not without a price. If you do taboo things, you are destined to pay a price. This price can be Not only human lives, but also sins.”

“Everything in the world has a cause and effect. He borrowed other people’s lives for his own use, and also committed evil consequences. Not only will the evil consequences be burned in the underworld, but he is destined to have no luck in the next life. Good result.”

Lu Lianxue nodded.

Subsequently.

The two set out to walk into this residential area, ready to see if they could find any clues.

According to Captain Lin Tong’s inference.

The Soul-Calming Symbol on the deceased is not carved after death, but left before death. This is because the longer the Soul-Calming Symbol is placed on the deceased, the better the Soul-Calming Symbol will be. Therefore, as long as you find the person with the Soul-Calming Symbol on him, there is a high probability that that person is the deceased. Next target.

After all, not every ghost exorcist understands the soul-suppressing symbols, so there won’t be two cases in the same city that both use soul-suppressing symbols but have different murderers.

Zhang Wei and Lu Lianxue pretended to be police officers and conducted door-to-door interviews.

After interviewing many households one after another.

Just when Zhang Wei and the others asked, a three-generation family that had lived here for decades was about to turn around and leave.

“Grandma, that’s the one! I said before that Grandpa Tang had a painting on his body, and that’s the painting.” The

person who spoke was a little girl of five or six years old.

Children always like new things, especially beautiful things. When she saw Zhang Wei and Lu Lianxue, two ‘beautiful’ things, she got curious and got closer. As a result, after being picked up by her grandma, she saw the photo of the symbol in Lu Lianxue’s hand. .

She immediately shouted and pointed at the photo.

“Huh?”

Zhang Wei looked at his actions and couldn’t help but point to the symbolic photo in Lu Lianxue’s hand:

“Little sister, have you seen this?”

As the little girl nodded affirmatively, after Zhang Wei asked, he learned the situation .

The grandma holding the little girl explained:

“Old Tang lives in the neighborhood next door and performs shadow puppet shows. We are used to calling him Old Man Tang. He rides a tricycle to the night market every day to perform shadow puppet shows to make money. He is a very good person and always gives something to the children. Watch the shadow puppet show for free.”

“A few days ago, I took Nizi to see Old Tang’s puppet show. I was chatting with another old woman at that time, and she joked with other children that she saw Old Tang when he was fanning himself. There is a painting on the back, so speaking of it, the painting Nizi drew does look a bit like your symbol.”

No wonder grandma didn’t recognize it right away. How could a child draw a symbol perfectly when he draws from memory.

This is also the time.

Grandma pointed in a direction and said:

“If you are looking for Old Man Tang, I suggest you go later. He is still setting up a stall and has not come back yet. In the evening, he will go there to do shadow puppet shows for the children.”

Then.

Zhang Wei and the others asked some more information about Grandpa Tang.

I learned that Grandpa Tang was a lonely old man who made a living by shadow puppetry. Since shadow puppetry is an old art now, not many people watch it, so he could barely make ends meet, and he only came to Luxia City a few years ago.

Lu Lianxue became excited after hearing this. The matter finally made progress:

“Grandpa Tang is a lonely old man who comes from out of town. It fits what Captain Lin Tong said about the target of the exorcist’s murder. He is an ordinary poor man with low attention. It seems that The symbol on Grandpa Tang’s body is most likely the ghost exorcist’s next target.”
