There's something wrong with this version of the technique!

Chapter 134: Can the village defender escape death three times?
Lu Yue took a taxi and arrived at his destination smoothly.

As soon as I entered the community, I found that an apartment building in front of me was blocked by security guards, as if something big had happened inside.

At this time, I heard the discussions of the uncles and aunts.

"The guy on the seventh floor was in trouble? His name seemed to be Wu Xiong. I was coming home from square dancing a few days ago, and he rushed around and almost broke my old bones. He didn't even say sorry. I am a generous person and don't bother with young people, but that young man not only disrespected the elderly, but also disliked his own son."

"There was a little boy who had just learned to walk following him, naked, without even shoes. If he stepped on some glass, he would get hurt. Young people nowadays don't have the responsibility of being a father, so why do they need this child?"

"How do you know that the naked child is his?"

"I'm not blind. They look exactly like the same child. If it's not his, how could it be someone else's?"

"The next day I met the young man again and kindly reminded him to pay attention to the safety of his children. Although it was summer, there was no need to be naked. He ran away in a panic, followed by a middle school student, who should be his younger brother. They looked very similar, but he was not wearing shoes either."

"It's normal for a son to look like his father, but the younger brother looks like the older brother. They are not twins, so why do they look alike?" someone questioned.

"Why would I lie to you? Not only does his brother look alike, his brother also looks alike. His brother told me that the whole family looks alike. I found that the whole family has problems. They don't wear shoes..."

Lu Yue, who was standing by, also felt a little strange while listening to the old lady's story.

The child, the younger brother, the older brother... they all look the same.

At this time, seeing that more and more people were gathering, the security guards on the scene began to evacuate the crowd. When they saw Lu Yue trying to enter the blockade, they were ready to drive him away, but Lu Yue took out his consultant ID in time and gave his name, so he was allowed to pass.

Soon, an elderly security guard in charge of the scene came to receive them. Apparently, Deputy Captain Liu had already arranged everything. After meeting Lu Yue, the elderly security guard briefly explained the cause of the incident.

Early this morning, the landlord came to collect rent, but no one replied to his message. He owed several months' rent, so he thought the tenant had run away, so he decisively called the police. Soon the security guard intervened and discovered that Wu Xiong was the person who reported the supernatural incident yesterday.

Then, the security guards of Mucheng cordoned off the scene and waited for Taicheng to send another specialist. After all, it involved a supernatural incident that could not be solved by ordinary people.

The older sheriff took out the victim's file.

Name: Wu Xiong.

Sex: Male
Age: twenty-three years old.

Profile: A week ago, he realized someone was following him. At first, it was a barefoot child, then a barefoot teenager, and then a barefoot young man. He disappeared yesterday. Before he disappeared, he asked a friend to accompany him...

Lu Yue frowned and thought, he couldn't figure out the reason from just looking at this file.

"Before me, Taicheng sent a commissioner. Where is he?"

The older security guard was silent for a moment and then said, "Missing."

Lu Yue raised his eyebrows. Judging from the information sent by Deputy Captain Liu, this specialist's strength was at the third level of Shenzang. How could he actually go missing?
After all, Mucheng is not a city where supernatural events happen frequently, and under normal circumstances, major supernatural events should not occur there.

The older security guard then told Lu Yue that not only the commissioner was missing, but the person who reported the case was also missing. The surveillance footage was cluttered with snow, and their whereabouts could not be determined for the time being.

"One more thing." The older peacekeeper added: "This is the file that the previous commissioner asked us to organize."

Lu Yue took over another file.

This file is thicker than the previous one. When I opened it, I found that it was a combination of the files of more than twenty people.

Lu Yue was slightly startled, and unexpectedly discovered that these people were the suicide victims reported in the news earlier, and he also saw a somewhat familiar name among them - Zhao Chengcai.

Isn’t this the poster of a post that Lu Yue found when he was looking for the relic node? And it was because of that post that he went to Changshan Village.

Lu Yue still remembers that post.

I originally thought it was a story about reminiscing about youth, but it turned out to be a ghost story.

"I opened my childhood toys and found a shriveled corpse. That was my former self..." Lu Yue took out his mobile phone and looked through the content of the post again.

Two months later, there were more than a dozen comments under the post. Some people asked the poster to call the police, and some asked the poster to tell the house number so that they could send local specialties. However, this number seemed to be dead and no one responded.

The shrunken corpse, my former self...

The supernatural incident involving Wu Xiong also included the description of “his former self”.

There was another point that caught Lu Yue's attention. The file said that Zhao Chengcai and Wu Xiong were good friends who shared a house, but he left after resigning two months ago.

And two months ago was exactly the time when Zhao Chengcai posted the supernatural post.

Lu Yue continued to check the files of these suicides.

Judging from the files alone, these deceased people did commit suicide. Commissioner Zhou Ming had just arrived in Mucheng on a business trip and was keenly aware that there was something wrong with the Mucheng suicide case. He conducted an in-depth investigation and specifically examined the body of Zhao Chengcai and other bodies of recent suicides, temporarily ruling out the possibility of being affected by ghosts.

But based on the intuition of the Commissioner of the Demon Suppression Bureau, he still collected the information.

After reading the file, Lu Yue frowned even more tightly.

Although these people committed suicide, there are still doubts.

Take Zhao Chengcai for example. About two months ago, some colleagues felt that Zhao Chengcai's temperament had changed. He often refused to work overtime and sometimes even beat his boss, showing a violent tendency.

This was completely different from Zhao Chengcai, a college student who had always been conscientious and said he would work hard and give back to Changshan Village in the future. Later he was fired.

The other deceased were similar, with sudden changes in their personalities.

This supernatural incident is indeed a bit weird.

If there was no supernatural influence, then why did those suicide victims, including Zhao Chengcai, suddenly change their personalities?

But if there really was some supernatural interference, how could it be possible that even the Commissioner of the Demon Suppression Division could not detect it? No matter how they checked, those who committed suicide were all alive, and there was no sign of any influence or control by ghosts.

Compared to solving cases and performing autopsies, the Demon Suppression Division is professional.

"Let's go to the scene first." Lu Yue decided to start with Wu Xiong.

If we understand what Wu Xiong experienced last night, perhaps the truth behind Mu Cheng's bizarre suicides can be revealed. However, after a careful on-site inspection, no trace of evil spirits was found in the rental house. It seems that even if there were ghosts, they have long since left.

The whole case came to a standstill.

Investigating cases was not Lu Yue's strong point. After talking with several experienced local security guards, he learned that an investigation into the deceased's social relations was currently underway.

The plan is to bring together the cases of Wu Xiong, Zhao Chengcai and other suicides to find out if there are any common points among them.

However, this requires a process, which may take at least two or three days or at most half a month.

Lu Yue nodded in agreement, but felt that this method of investigation was too cumbersome and time-consuming.

If Li Hao from the Demon Suppression Bureau were here, he could easily find out what happened to the bodies of those suicide victims just by leaving his body, and the efficiency of investigating the case would be greatly improved.

After all, technological means can easily be deceived by supernatural powers.

Only magic can be used to fight magic.

When Lu Yue tried to contact Li Hao, he learned that the other party was busy with work.

During the trip to the ruins, all members of the Demon Bureau in Taicheng Town have improved to varying degrees.

Because of his improved strength and the fact that his soul is out of body, which is very suitable for solving cases, Li Hao has been promoted to Deputy Captain Li. His status is no less than those captains and he is a key training target in Taicheng.

The entire Taicheng cannot do without Comrade Li Hao!

Including Deputy Captain Liu, who asked me to check on the condition of Specialist Zhou Ming, was promoted to captain because of his improved strength. It seems that he will have to be called Captain Liu from now on.

After saying a few words of congratulations, Lu Yue fell into a dilemma. If he continued like this, he would not be able to solve the problem in one day. Did he have to go to the lightning-struck jujube forest first to solve his own problem and then come back to deal with this matter?

Although Lu Yue is not a specialist in solving supernatural incidents, he also understands one thing: no matter what the case is, once the timeline is extended, it will become difficult to handle and some key clues may disappear without a trace.

Solving a crime and killing ghosts with real blood are two completely different things.

Lu Yue felt a headache.

Then he began to wonder if there was anyone else with abilities similar to Li Hao?
Suddenly, a person's name flashed through Lu Yue's mind.

Chu Tian, ​​the village guard in the Changshan Village incident.

A soul and a spirit leave the body and retrieve what happened in a fixed area in the past.

Also known as humanoid surveillance!

This ability is also very useful in solving cases.

Lu Yue immediately took out Chu Tian's WeChat and sent him a message. After a brief understanding, he learned that Chu Tian was also involved in the ruins and was currently preparing to return to his hometown from Taicheng, and would happen to pass by Mucheng.

"Brother Lu, I thought it was a big deal. You saved my life last time, and I've been looking for an opportunity to repay you. I'll transfer here right away." Chu Tian replied.

Towards evening, Lu Yue finally saw Chu Tian.

After a brief reminisce, we got straight to the point.

"This is a simple matter. Leave it to me. Which time period do you want to see what happened in?" Chu Tian said confidently.

After a brief thought, Lu Yue said, "Time is running out. First of all, let's talk about what happened to Wu Xiong last night..."

"No problem. If we have the exact time, we can find it out in no time."

"There is also a time period a week ago when Wu Xiong first discovered the abnormality. It would be better to check what happened two months ago before Wu Xiong and Zhao Chengcai started living together." Lu Yue continued, "I suspect that Wu Xiong and Zhao Chengcai did something together, which led to the appearance of ghosts that look exactly like themselves in their files."

After hearing Lu Yue's request, Chu Tian's body trembled.

"Three...three time periods? And another night?"

"Is it difficult?" Lu Yue asked.

Chu Tian thought of Lu Yue's life-saving grace and said with gritted teeth: "It's not difficult. My strength has also improved during this trip to the ruins. At worst, I can split my soul into three parts and check what happened in three time periods at once."

"The soul is split into three parts?" Lu Yue was a little curious.

"A person has three souls and seven spirits. For normal people, they are a whole and cannot be divided. Forcibly dividing them will result in serious illness or death. However, village guards like us are born with the ability to have three souls and seven spirits leave our bodies, and we can split them into three parts at most to explore three time periods at the same time."

When Chu Tian said this, a look of pride appeared on his face.

“Brother Lu, let me reveal something to you. Although we village guards may only be auxiliary in the eyes of others, as long as our strength breaks through the fourth level of the Divine Hidden Realm, we village guards will have three lives because our souls can be split!”

"Once you receive some kind of fatal injury, you can split your soul and spirit to replace your death. The first time is one soul and one spirit, the second time is one soul and two spirits, and the third time is one soul and four spirits. However, if all three souls die, you will be completely dead."

"This ability comes at a great cost. Every time you die for someone else, your soul will be permanently traumatized. This is the real reason why those people in ancient times called us village guards demented, stupid, and slow to react."

The muscles at the corners of Lu Yue's eyes twitched. This ability was too incredible.

At this time, he thought of another village guardian - the giant bronze turtle.

I now understand why I didn't gain any source energy when I killed the giant bronze turtle.

According to the giant bronze turtle, it should have died once in the ancestral temple that day, and the second chance was given to itself in the main hall.

Therefore...the giant bronze turtle still has a life.

However, if you lose your two souls and three spirits, you will become a fool even if you survive.

Unless you encounter some special opportunity, you will just be able to survive.
