Day and night tour

Chapter 156 Obsession "Death"

Liu Jinmin enjoyed the vitality in the ashes. His speech became incoherent and he even had a nightmare.

"The God of Life will become a true god sooner or later, and I, who keep offering sacrifices to him, will also become a god. Haha, a god, a god who lives in heaven..."

"Dream on."

Zhou Xuan heard it very clearly. Liu Jinmin was indeed a believer of an evil god. That evil god was called "God of Destiny".

"I guess I really gained something tonight."

Judging from Liu Jinmin’s crazy self-talk, many believers of the God of Life are not willing to sacrifice themselves, but are controlled by the God of Life through deception, abduction and other means by "feet" like Liu Jinmin.

There are quite a few such "believers" who all died unjustly and are very likely to develop an obsession.

"Does Liu Jinmin know where the God of Destiny is hiding?"

Zhou Xuan faced two choices. Either he could go into the house now, subdue Liu Jinmin, and torture him to find out the whereabouts of the God of Destiny, or he could continue to follow him, hoping that Liu Jinmin would meet with the God of Destiny.

As soon as the thought of the two choices came to his mind, Zhou Xuan made a prompt decision and chose the latter.

It is not difficult to rush in and subdue Liu Jinmin, and it is not difficult to torture him to find out the whereabouts of the God of Life.

However, as a believer of the evil god, he must have been linked to the evil god.

Li Chengfeng said that because the evil gods cannot compare to the righteous gods in terms of incense and worship, they are very particular about efficiency. Once they encounter a believer, they will control him firmly and will not let go until the last bit of value is squeezed out.

Since the link is so close, it is estimated that when Zhou Xuan tortured Liu Jinmin to find out the whereabouts of the God of Life, the God of Life would also know it at the same time, and then set an ambush and wait for Zhou Xuan to fall into the trap; or escape as soon as possible, and when Zhou Xuan arrived at the God of Life's hiding place, the other party had already left.

But if I continue to wait for Liu Jinmin, will this beast just fall into a deep sleep, and then get up and go to his mother's funeral, making my waiting in vain?

Zhou Xuan felt that this possibility was not very high. When he was in the mourning hall, he observed very carefully.
Liu Jinmin did not carry his red notebook with him at all times. For example, when he was chatting with the female boss opposite, he would put the small notebook in the wooden cabinet in the main room.

But when he came to this room to draw the ashes, he brought the red book with him... Was he afraid that the book would be stolen? Who could steal a broken book with names written all over it?

Zhou Xuan guessed that he should contact the God of Destiny, give his name to the other party, and just wait.

But the reversal came very quickly.

Liu Jinmin had just smoked out the ashes from his pipe until the yellow smoke stopped coming out, and then he began to snore.

"He really fell asleep?" Zhou Xuan was a little dumbfounded.

He immediately took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. It was half past eleven at night.

……

"Fifth Senior Brother." Zhou Xuan returned to the street light.

"What's the matter?" Lu Mingkun asked.

Zhou Xuan told Lu Mingkun everything about Liu Jinmin, and Lu Mingkun couldn't believe his ears after hearing it.

"Liu Jinmin is such a beast? He sacrificed his son and mother to the God of Life?"

"They believe in evil gods, what good can it be? He set a trap for me and Lao Yang at night, and I signed two fake names."

"So what do we do next?"

"Wait! Wait until one in the morning. If he doesn't wake up, we will go back to the house first. We must catch this so-called god of life."

Zhou Xuan said.

"Then wait." Lu Mingkun accompanied Zhou Xuan.

Waiting under the street light for too long was very conspicuous, so they moved to another place.

Opposite Liu Jinmin's cottage, there is a small porridge shop. In addition to porridge, it also sells stir-fried dishes, tea, and braised food. Even late at night, there are still groups of diners playing finger-guessing games, chatting, and drinking.

Zhou Xuan ordered a plate of braised large intestines, a pot of Tieguanyin tea, and two plates of cold dishes, and he and Lu Mingkun ate and drank while waiting.

At 12:40, the door of Liu Jinmin's house opened. He felt much better. After stretching, he continued walking west.

Zhou Xuan and Lu Mingkun quickly followed.

Going further west is Qiuchang Road. On this road, besides the stadium, there is a church.

There are cathedrals and chapels. The largest church is called St. Luo Church. There is a long white low wall along the street. The main gate is an iron fence. The name of the church is hollowed out on the arched iron frame above the door.

The threshold for admission to St. Luo Church is very high, and only high-ranking officials are accepted.

Some small churches built by private individuals are open to the public, but these churches are not well built. The better-regulated ones are built in the style of churches, but they are very small and low, and the worship room can only fit more than ten long tables.

The worst regulations are to hold services directly in private houses, with a sign hanging at the door saying "such and such church".

Liu Jinmin entered such a church, which was a private house. There was no sign at all. There were only four crooked words written in red paint on the door: "True Destiny Church".

Liu Jinmin knocked on the church door and it opened.

A tall, thin man with a curly wig came out, wearing a black robe. He tapped his chest once, then his forehead and his Danzhong acupoint, and said to Liu Jinmin in a lame voice, "The God of Life is with you."

The tall and thin man looked like a Chinese, but he imitated the poor intonation of a foreigner.

Zhou Xuan, who was using his perception to detect Liu Jinmin's movements, almost laughed out loud.

The evil god preaches through fake foreigners, who imitate foreigners and speak the Chinese language, which is very humorous.

"The God of Life is Eternal!"

Liu Jinmin knelt on the ground with a pious look.

The tall and thin man held a porcelain bottle, poured some water into his hand, clenched his fist and dipped his five fingers into the water, then he flicked his fingers and sprinkled the water on Liu Jinmin's forehead.

Liu Jinmin took out a red notebook and handed it to the tall and thin man.

The man opened the notebook, selected five names, pointed at them with his fingers, and returned the notebook.

Liu Jinmin tore off the paper with the five names written on it, lit it with a match, and put the burning black ashes into a water bottle.

After he shook the bottle a few times, a small amount of cigarette ash mixed with a large bottle of water to form a sticky light black mud.

Liu Jinmin smeared the mud on the tall and thin man's face bit by bit.

"Is this guy the God of Life?"

The mud with the believers' names written on it will only be effective if it is smeared on the evil god's face!

Since the tall and thin man was covered in mud, he was the "God of Life". To be more precise, he was the "foot" of the evil god.

After Liu Jinmin had finished wiping the black mud in the water bottle, the "God of Life" took off his wig and forcibly pulled out a strand of his real hair.

Liu Jinmin also endured the great pain and pulled out a lock of his hair. There was still a little scalp and blood stuck to the root of the hair.

After rubbing the two strands of hair together, the "God of Life" hooked a piece of flesh from the chin with his middle finger and placed it in his palm. As he chanted spells, the flesh seemed to come to life and began to jump.

Every time it jumped, part of its flesh and blood turned into a sticky liquid. After jumping dozens of times, all of its flesh and blood turned into a bloody red liquid.

The "God of Life" rubbed the hair and liquid together and formed it into a small ball.

"The eyes of God have been made, Liu Jinmin, receive the eyes."

As soon as the words fell,
Liu Jinmin took off his upper body clothes, and there were six round blood pits of erosion on his chest and abdomen.

The blood pit seemed to be still blinking, and the crack on the edge was slowly shrinking. After it was completely closed, it slowly opened again.

The "God of Life" moved its "eyes" made of hair and flesh towards Liu Jinmin's chest and abdomen.

"Sizzle, sizzle", the sound of hot water pouring on ice suddenly rang out, and white hot steam wrapped around Liu Jinmin's body.

After the heat dissipated, a seventh blood pit appeared on Liu Jinmin's chest and abdomen.

As a result, he became exhausted and collapsed at the door of a house.

"Stand up and lie down in the church. When the sun rises, you will gain more vitality. This is the reward from the God of Life."

After the "God of Destiny" finished speaking, he entered the True Destiny Church. Liu Jinmin also exhausted the last of his strength, struggled to get up, and stumbled into the church.

"Oh!"

The church door closed.

... "That tall and thin man is the God of Life! The Evil God." Zhou Xuan said to Lu Mingkun.

"Damn it, what was that crappy ritual just now? It was so disgusting."

People like Lu Mingkun, who deal with miserable corpses all year round, think that the transaction between Liu Jinmin and the "God of Life" is too disgusting.

"Especially those bloody pits, they make me shudder!" Lv Mingkun couldn't help but complain, "I really want to take a knife and cut out the bloody pits on Liu Jinmin's body one by one."

"Fifth Brother, wait here for a while. I will check the situation next to the church and find an efficient plan to deal with the God of Life."

Zhou Xuan's original intention was to find his obsession.

The purpose of dealing with the "God of Fate" is to clear the name of "Obsession" and earn the chance to enter the Totem Hall.

Zhou Xuan walked around the True Fate Church, feeling the movement of the Wicked Wrath Sutra on his chest as he walked.

Walking from the road to the hill behind the church, finally, the Wake-up Calligraphy Sutra started to move.

Zhou Xuan checked everywhere and finally saw a figure in the birch forest behind the hill.

This figure was similar to the obsession "Eyeless" that Zhou Xuan encountered for the first time. It had a mosaic style - composed of several people, and each part of the body had its own style.

The vibration amplitude of the Cleansing Wrongs Talisman on Zhou Xuan's chest was several times stronger than the first time, and it felt like it would jump out of the inner pocket at any time.

And this time, he didn't seem to have the urge to kneel down and ask Zhou Xuan for help to clear his name. He just stood far away and looked at Zhou Xuan.

"They seem to be too afraid of the God of Life."

In order to give confidence to his obsession, Zhou Xuan took out the talisman for cleansing injustices from his pocket.

Ordinary people cannot see this talisman, no matter how high their incense burners are, but obsessions can see it.

After seeing the talisman, his obsession finally came to an end. He walked towards Zhou Xuan. After taking two or three steps, his figure suddenly disappeared. Then, he appeared beside Zhou Xuan and kowtowed.

As they kowtowed, hundreds of people walked out of the body of obsession.

Zhou Xuan only felt that the hill was crowded with people, the number of people was astonishing.

Each of them died in a very tragic way. Some, like Old Lady Liu, had no scalp left, leaving only a bald skull.

For some people, a steel bar as thick as a wrist was pierced through their chest, and blood flowed out along the grooves of the steel bar.

Old Lady Liu and the blacksmith are also part of the obsession in front of Zhou Xuan.

"What an injustice!" Zhou Xuan felt dozens of voices of obsession coming from his mind. His mind moved and condensed into one thought: "Clear the injustice!"

Zhinian knew Zhou Xuan's intention, so he stood up and walked towards the back window of the church, then stopped in front of the window.

Zhou Xuan had experience in clearing injustices, and knew that they had already reached the place where the injustice occurred. All that was left to do was to use the "Clearing Injustice Talisman" to return to the time when the injustice occurred.

Zhou Xuan unscrewed the pen and placed the tip of the pen on the paper.

Obsession gripped the top of the pen, controlling its movement. The ink at the tip of the pen flowed out a line of words on the Wrath-Clearing Scroll - August 23, 10:15 am, True Fate Church, Qichang Road, Mingjiangfu...

……

As the words of the Xiyuan Sutra were written,

Time is going back,
The environment around Zhou Xuan also changed. It was late at night just now, but now it was already morning.

The not-too-strong sunlight sprinkled through the birch forest and onto the brick wall behind the church, unexpectedly giving Zhou Xuan a sense of the beauty of time.

Zhou Xuan saw a man, it was Liu Jinmin.

He carried his mother's body on his back and slowly walked to the back window of the church.

The window was closed, so I couldn't see what was going on inside, but I could hear words of advice coming from behind the window.
"As always, put your mother's body under the wall!"

Judging from the lame tone of the voice, the person who gave Liu Jinmin instructions was the "God of Destiny", the tall and thin man wearing a wig and pretending to be a foreign devil.

Liu Jinmin wrapped up his mother, Old Lady Liu's legs, put his right and left hands behind his back, and twisted them into a twist shape.

This action seems to be some kind of ritual action required by the "God of Destiny", but it is very anti-human. How can a person's hand twist backwards?
“It hurts…”

Old Mrs. Liu looked extremely miserable at this moment. She had almost no scalp, revealing her bald skull. However, her vitality seemed extremely strong at this moment. Even though she suffered such serious injuries, she was not really dead.

Her hands were twisted wildly by her son, and her bones made continuous crackling sounds.

"Mom, you are already like this, you can't live anymore. In the last moments of your life, being able to be a sacrifice to the God of Life is a blessing."

Liu Jinmin spent a lot of effort and finally twisted the old lady Liu's hands into a knot. A spell began to be chanted from the window.

Suddenly,

Two streams of smoke appeared from Old Lady Liu's body, one was light yellow, and the other was as black as ink.

Zhou Xuan had seen the pale yellow energy in Liu Jinmin's fog. It was life force, and the black energy...

Zhou Xuan walked closer and smelled a strange stench in the ink, like rotten eggs.

Two streams of smoke rose from Old Lady Liu's body and went straight into the window.

There was no change in Old Lady Liu's health, but a voice came from the window: "Comfortable!"

Just two words, but two tones.

The word "Shu" has a very youthful tone, like a child's energetic speech, while the word "Tan" has a very old tone, like the sad sigh of an octogenarian.

The two tones changed rapidly in two words, which seemed extremely strange.

The two streams of air were constantly being sucked away by the "thing" in the window. Old Mrs. Liu could no longer bear it, and her little remaining consciousness was rapidly dissipating.

"Mom, you can't die. Just hold on a little longer. Just hold on a little longer."

Liu Jinmin was afraid that Old Lady Liu would die before the ceremony was completed, so he picked up a brick from not far away and smashed it on Old Lady Liu's leg bones.

boom!
Bricks are broken,

There was a dent in Old Lady Liu's leg bone.

The intense pain awakened the little consciousness that Old Lady Liu had left. Her eyelids twitched a few times, but she did not open them.

Liu Jinmin picked up the brick again and hit Old Lady Liu's leg bones every half a minute.

After four or five minutes, the yellow and black smoke from Old Lady Liu's body was gone, and a voice came from the window: "I am very satisfied with this sacrifice. Liu Jinmin, carry your mother's body away."

"Ugh."

Liu Jinmin carried Old Lady Liu on his back and walked towards the back mountain.

The voice from the window reminded him again: "The next person to die is Chen Dehai. He will die at 5:30 tomorrow morning. You should be ready in advance. If anything happens to him, you should carry him to me."

"clear."

Liu Jinmin responded and disappeared into the back mountain.

……

Zhou Xuan saw the misery of Old Lady Liu when she was dying, and her anger burned his body like a furnace.

He broke the space-time rift with one punch and returned to reality. He had a great thought in his mind: "I will definitely clear your name!"

As soon as the thought came to mind, the Wickedness-Clearing Talisman vibrated again.

Zhou Xuan took out the Book of Clearing Wrongs and turned it to the last page based on his perception. Four words appeared on the page - dying, clearing wrongs!
This obsession is codenamed "dying".

Zhou Xuan put away the talisman for cleansing injustices and went to meet Lu Mingkun first.

"Fifth Brother, my blood well sensed the truth behind the deaths of Old Lady Liu and the blacksmith. That Liu Jinmin is a beast!"

Zhou Xuan said: "Every sacrifice that Liu Jinmin offered to the God of Life was not truly dead. They were in a dying state."

"Checkmate?"

"Yes, the sacrifice is very strange. It is neither blood nor meat, but two streams of smoke emitted from the bodies of those dying people. One stream of smoke is light yellow, and the other is pitch black..." Zhou Xuan explained in detail.

"That's life and death!"
