Chapter 29 Collecting the Corpse

"Wait a minute, besides here, there are several locations over there. You guys should go dig them too."

After that, I reported the four directions: "Fourteen steps to the southwest from the fountain, twenty steps to the east from the westernmost flower bed..."

After Li Yuan listened and watched for a moment, a puzzled expression appeared on his face: "Seven-star formation?"

I nodded: "If I guess correctly, these locations are where the soul and limbs of Mrs. Sun's daughter are located."

Li Yuan waved to the men behind him, and they immediately went down the mountain and dispersed in all directions.

"Xiao Zhi, are you serious? Setting up a seven-star array in this place is not a fool's errand."

I didn't take my eyes off the figure who was still digging the land in front of me, and affirmed: "Yes, the seven-star formation corresponds to the paper talisman that gathers souls and the human head, torso and limbs, supplemented by the great auspicious elements with the great yin in them.

Feng Shui removes resentment and creates an excellent person."

After hearing what I said, Li Yuan's eyes widened: "Puppet?"

He has also heard some legends about human puppets before. It is said that in the early years when there was no distinction between the good and evil monastic sects, some monks who took shortcuts would choose to practice human puppets.

Once the human puppet is mastered, it will become a very dangerous thing. Although it is of great benefit to the monks after being mastered, the method is extremely complicated and cruel, so in recent years, few people have dared to try it, and the method has gradually been lost.

After all, if he is discovered, he will not suffer the consequences of walking around in circles.

"Xiao Zhi, how do you know how to make a human puppet? This thing is a forbidden skill now." Li Yuan looked at me with some worry.

I hesitated for a while. I saw this from the book that Daochang Chen gave me. At that time, I only thought it was a common spell, but I didn't expect it to be a forbidden spell...

If I confess now that Daozhang Chen passed on this forbidden technique to me, will it cause harm to Daozhang Chen's reputation?

After thinking for a while, I finally answered: "When I was accepted as a disciple by Taoist Chen, he and I encountered a similar incident. Someone was refining ghost spirits. Taoist Chen mentioned this to me at the time, but I was also the first to do it.

See you once."

Li Yuan nodded without any doubt: "So that's it. As expected of Master Chen, he is very knowledgeable."

As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Sun came over and said, "Little Taoist Priest, according to the location you pointed out, the talisman paper was dug out, but..."

Halfway through, she seemed a little scared and paused: "

I don’t know how to describe it, so you can see for yourself, little Taoist priest.”

Li Yuan pushed my wheelchair forward. Before we even got close, we felt the stench.

The dug pit was about a person's height, and some foul-smelling dark red liquid gushed out from the bottom.

Above them is a yellow talisman paper, which is not stained by these liquids at all and looks particularly abrupt.

"Little Taoist Priest, this...is this blood?" Mrs. Sun looked very worried.

When she bought and buried the inverted talisman paper, it was not what it was now, and she clearly remembered that she had only buried it on the surface, but now it took her so long to dig it out.

I had difficulty moving, so Li Yuan stepped forward for me and filled me with a little red liquid in the small porcelain bottle he brought with him.

I held it in front of me and smelled it.

There is a pungent smell and a stench, but it is not blood, but more like the smell of rotting plants. I have smelled this smell before...

Right.

"No, it's not blood. This should be the decayed juice of plants that originally grew at the bottom of the artificial lake." I put the vial away and said.

In this way, the soul can be gathered, and it really takes no effort at all.

"Mrs. Sun, let's go back first. I have a way to restore your daughter's soul." I looked at Mrs. Sun and said.

Mrs. Sun was delighted: "Really?"

I nodded. The murderer tried his best to disperse the soul, but he didn't have enough time. Just like this talisman that hides two souls and one soul, he should also have left the medium used to disperse the soul where he buried the body.

.

They are the water plants in this place where the shade gathers.

If I had come back a month later, I might not have found any traces here, so now is just in time.

Not long after returning to the villa, Li Yuan's men came back one after another.

Li Yuan asked them one by one what they had dug up, and finally went to Mrs. Sun and reported: "Mrs. Sun, most of your daughter's body has been found... Now only the right hand at the bottom of the lake is left, and nothing can be done for the time being.

retrieve."

Mrs. Sun nodded, her eyes were obviously watery, but she didn't cry.

I thought of my mother. I don’t have a deep memory of her, just a vague image. If she had been by my side, would she be as worried about her children as Mrs. Sun?

I was a little touched and suggested: "Mrs. Sun, you don't need to take back this arm for the time being. I will be able to collect the soul for your daughter. If she is willing, you can actually meet again..."

After hearing this, Mrs. Sun suddenly raised her head and walked up to me with tears in her eyes: "Is it true? Xiao Taoist priest, are you telling the truth?"

I nodded: "It's true, but it's just a one-time meeting. After that, we still have to follow the cycle of cause and effect. She has to go back down and be reincarnated."

Mrs. Sun held my hand, so tenderly that I subconsciously shrank my hand: "It's okay, as long as we can meet you once, I'll be satisfied. Thank you, thank you so much, little Taoist priest."

Seeing her being so moved, I felt a little embarrassed. After comforting her for a few more words, I went upstairs on the pretext of making some preparations.

Because Mrs. Sun said that she could not bear to watch such a terrifying scene, she just waited outside Miss Sun's bedroom while several of Li Yuan's men pieced Miss Sun's body together and covered it with a quilt.

Then I will take her inside.

The pen is dipped in cinnabar, the gold hook is painted with silver, and it is ready after a few strokes.

Set up the formation, affix the talisman, and place the medium and vajra.

The evil talisman began to burn the moment it came into contact with the vajra. The color of the fire was pale and had no temperature.

Now I only use one foot for support and it is a little difficult to maintain balance. I can only stand in front of the bed.

The rain started to fall outside the door again, and I felt something was wrong with the air around me.

"Boom!"

There was a sound of thunder, and the originally brightly lit villa suddenly went dark.

Suddenly, only the incense that had been lit and the burning evil talisman were still glowing in the room.

From the corner of the room, a faint sob could be heard.

"Woooo...Mom, where is mom..."

Mrs. Sun, who was standing behind Li Yuan, was a little excited when she heard the voice and was about to open her mouth to agree, but was pulled back by Li Yuan.

"Madam, please be careful first, something doesn't seem right."
