Chapter 167
Shen Yi'an was silent for a while, and then said again, "That's what I saw in that ancient book, and it was collected on mass graves using a special method, but not all mass graves will have them, after so many years , I only collected that point, and I used it all just now.”

"That point?" Leng Yuan snorted coldly, "Ordinary people will die when they touch the dead air. If you really want to kill people with the dead air you collected, you can only release a little bit of it each time. It's not a problem to kill thousands of people. Besides, collecting death energy is extremely dangerous, it is a miracle that you can collect so much and still be alive!"

"Isn't it true that the dead energy I collected with all my heart and effort has no chance to hurt you?" Shen Yi'an looked at Leng Yuan, "Believe it or not, no matter how much you burn me, I have no other answer."

Leng Yuan squinted her eyes. Bai Jinye is not afraid of death aura as a corpse. If Pei Qingge hadn't recovered her strength, those death auras would be enough to kill her.

It can only be said that Shen Yi'an was unlucky, but if it was someone else, he would have died in that death a long time ago.

"What's the difference between that mass grave and other places?" Pei Qingge asked after thinking about it.

Shen Yi'an looked up at her, "At that time, an executioner died. He had no family, so the body was thrown directly into the mass grave. However, his family has been executioners for ten generations. I have read in ancient books that the number of people under Ling Chi's sword cannot exceed 99, and if Ling Chi reaches [-] people, no matter what, the sword must be sealed and destroyed."

"This is also the rule handed down from the executioners' ancestors, but there are very few people who have been sentenced to Lingchi. If it weren't for the fact that the ten generations of this family were all executioners, and at the beginning of the establishment of the dynasty, many people were sentenced when they cleaned up the sins of the previous dynasty. Capital punishment, it is impossible to kill so many people. But it was passed down to his generation, he did not believe in evil, and he should have sealed the knife, but he continued to use it. On the night when the [-]st person was killed, he died violently at home .”

"I went to his house to look for the knife, but I couldn't find it, so I went to the mass grave... You must not have guessed where the knife is." He said, looking across the faces of the people in front of him, He paused for a long time, and then continued, "The knife is in his stomach, but there is no wound on his body, as if he swallowed the knife forcefully."

Hearing this, Chu Xingxuan couldn't help but vomit, with a trace of contempt on his face, "There is no wound on your body, and you found this knife, you are really..." He thought for a long time, but he didn't think of it An appropriate word to describe, but also almost imagine the disgusting picture.

"How did you think the knife would be in his stomach?" Bai Jinye asked.

"How could I have imagined that?" Shen Yi'an shook his head, "Only by the moonlight, I could see black gas rising from his belly, and the vegetation around him would wither instantly when it touched the black gas, but the black gas It doesn't float too far, and it will dissipate in the air in a short time. I think this is very similar to the description of the dead energy I read in ancient books. At first, I only wanted to collect the dead energy, but I didn't expect to find Ling Chi Dao in his stomach .”

Bai Jinye sneered, "You already knew that Ling Chi's knife would kill a hundred people and he would be deadly. I'm afraid you and the executioner came up with the suggestion of not sealing the knife? A few years ago, the emperor was ill. The emperor has been childless for several years, and in order to accumulate merit, he has already ordered the Ministry of Punishment to carefully approve the execution of capital punishment, and the imperial court has not approved the execution of Ling Chi for at least seven years, so you ordered the few cases of Ling Chi without permission?"

Shen Yi'an looked at Bai Jinye and didn't admit it, but his expression had already given Bai Jinye the answer.

"Then what method did you use to contain your dead energy?" Pei Qingge narrowed her eyes. She had read so many books in the temple, but she had never seen a way to collect dead energy.

"Living people are afraid of death aura, but this world has its own rules. The death aura and the air are mutually restraining. If there is not a large amount of death aura erupting, the death aura that is gradually released will be suppressed by the air, and it is impossible to spread too far. It’s like this world protects the living invisibly. But the dead energy can only enter the human body through the seven orifices, and if you want to collect it, as long as you have a way to isolate the dead energy and prevent it from entering through the seven orifices, it’s fine.” Shen Yi’an explained road.

"There is nothing in this world that can block the air of death." Leng Yuan frowned.

"No? That's because you don't know." Shen Yi'an sneered, "The more frightening something is, the more common it is to restrain it. If you want to isolate the dead air, you just need..."

At this point in his words, before he could say anything else, a ball of black fire suddenly burst out from his chest cavity.

The fire was extremely intense, but it couldn't feel a little bit of temperature.

Seeing the fire, Pei Qingge violently dragged Leng Yuan who was beside her back. After taking a step back, she remembered Bai Jinye, and raised her hand to grab him again.

The three quickly retreated to Chu Xingxuan's side.

A rare solemnity flashed across Chu Xingxuan's face. He and Pei Qingge looked at each other, obviously recognizing the origin of the fire.

Shen Yi'an's soul was burnt to nothing in an instant, and the fire disappeared.

Although he dodged, Pei Qingge still had lingering fears, "It seems that the old monk knew that he had peeked at the ancient books and put a restriction on his soul. As long as he mentions the content about the secret law, he will be burned." soul, to prevent the contents of the ancient book from being leaked."

After a pause, Pei Qingge turned his head to look at Bai Jinye, "Shen Yi'an is an official of the imperial court, so he died like this, someone must be looking for him." She didn't intend to kill him directly at first, the soul can be summoned, and it can be stuffed back. But now, he is dead and cannot die anymore.

Bai Jinye frowned slightly, "It's okay, I'll take care of it."

"It's a pity that I haven't asked where the Ling Chi knife is. It's a disaster to keep it." After finishing speaking, Pei Qingge stepped forward and turned over Shen Yi'an's body, but he knew in his heart that he would definitely not carry that kind of thing with him, "I Go to Shen's house to look for Ling Chidao, A Yuan, you stay here, watch out for people to get close, and leave after the dead air is gone."

It was almost dawn when Pei Qingge returned to the Zhang residence. Ling Chidao was found in Shen Yi'an's study. She wanted to dispose of the knife as soon as possible, so she went straight back to her room.

The news of Shen Yi'an's death spread quickly to the capital, and a prefect suddenly died suddenly. The emperor sent someone to investigate thoroughly.

It's not appropriate for Bai Jinye to show his face, Zuo Ci can only do so.

The person who came to conduct a thorough investigation was none other than Huang Hengzhi, the eldest son of Prime Minister Huang Weixian.

At that time, Pei Qingge solved the Huang family's matter, and the Huang family was very grateful, but then something happened to Prince Su's mansion, and the shop was also empty.

Seeing Zuo Ci now, it is necessary to exchange pleasantries.

That day Shen Yi'an chased "Zhang Jingcheng and his wife" and left. Many people saw it, and the girls from Yuewu Building could also testify. This point cannot be concealed. Zuo Ci also followed Bai Jinye's account. The wife is pregnant, and she seems to be thinking of her pregnant and passed away wife, as if she regards Mrs. Zhang as his wife, intending to do something wrong.

But when he chased into the woods, he suddenly admitted his mistake to the air as if he had seen a ghost, said a lot of shameful words to his dead wife, and then fell to the ground and died somehow.

Mrs. Zhang was frightened and her fetal position was unstable. Zhang Jingcheng took people to recuperate in Zhuangzi outside the city. If Huang Hengzhi wanted to see her, he would go to Zhuangzi to meet her.

Huang Hengzhi first took Wu Zuo for an autopsy, and there was indeed no trauma on the body.

He asked Zuo Ci to lead the way to Zhuangzi outside the city, and when he entered the door, he saw Bai Jinye drinking tea in the hall.
