No taboos

Chapter 131 Fire Melting Ball (asking for monthly ticket)
The coroner pointed to a spot on the thigh and said, "Please look here, everyone. We have handled it specifically."

At this position, a dark, filamentous grid wrapped around the leg bone, then condensed into a strand as thick as a hemp rope, extending into the muscles, spreading and growing in the muscles and blood vessels, and finally passing through the muscles and seeping under the skin.

Fu Jingyu was surprised: "Is this thing growing inside Inspector Lu's body?"

The coroner nodded. "That's right. My Lords, please take another look."

The coroner pointed to Lu Qiuyang's chest and abdomen: "We believe all of these things grew from here."

The internal organs are gone, and one can directly see those dark filamentous grids, which are diffused from the muscles of the back and spread to all parts of the body!

Xu Yuan frowned and searched his memory to see if his father had ever told him about this method.

Fu Jingyu came from a family with a rich history of learning, and said, "It seems to be some kind of puppetry?"

Zhu Sili didn't say anything, but leaned over to take a closer look.

After the coroner rolled up the white cloth, Xu Yuan, Fu Jingyu and Zhu Sili came closer to observe.

When Zhu Sili got closer, he saw that the dark silk-like grids suddenly trembled slightly.

Then, the severed parts began to grow outward a little, looking for each other, as if they wanted to connect themselves!
If successful, even if Lu Qiuyang has been split into so many pieces, he can become a "complete" zombie again!

The coroner was horrified and grabbed Zhu Sili and pulled him away: "Oh no, something strange is going to happen..."

Another coroner hurriedly shook out the white cloth—but suddenly a fire tornado came nearby.

The flames rolled and instantly covered the entire corpse.

In the flames, many black filaments were seen twisting and stretching continuously, like sharp ghost claws, about to escape from the fiery purgatory!
But the flames continued to rise, and the black filaments eventually turned into ashes in vain.

There were too many such filaments in Lu Qiuyang's body. After burning one, another would emerge continuously.

It lasted for a full quarter of an hour until Lu Qiuyang's body was burned out and these filaments were finally exhausted.

However, the fire in Xu Yuan's belly did not subside. Instead, it twisted into a fireball the size of an orange three feet above the long table.

The fireball was round. Zhu Sili took a closer look and found that it was just a thin layer, like a gauze. It was vaguely visible that there was a last group of black filaments trapped inside!
It was like a monkey thrown onto a red-hot iron plate, shrinking all over the place due to the heat.

Zhu Sili's face changed. His previous sentence "great skills and high level, and the clever control of the fire in the belly" was of course a mockery of Xu Yuan.

Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I can’t help but praise it in my heart: It is really ingenious!

This is not the normal level of a seventh-rate alchemist, this is the effect of Aunt Wang's "Five Ding Cooking" practice method.

The two coroners looked at it in confusion, wondering why they didn't burn this last piece of flesh quickly.

Xu Yuan and Master Fu held out their hands and said, "Give me a fishy bun."

Fu Jingyu gave it to him, and Xu Yuan took it and opened it. When the flame was extinguished, the ball of filaments fell into the fishy package.

Xu Yuan tied the bag tightly, and the fishy wrapper slowly shrank and tightened.

The two coroners widened their eyes. This thin thread was not of good material.

Lord Xu wants to preserve some evidence.

The two coroners couldn't even imagine such a method. One fishy bun cost seventy taels! If Lord Xu followed his method, a murder case involving evil spirits would cost at least thirty fishy buns!
Who pays for this?

The two of them can't afford it.

Zhu Sili glanced at Xu Yuan again. This method was truly... ingenious! At the same time, he wondered: What's the point of keeping this evil thing?
When Xu Yuan saw these mesh filaments, he thought of the roots of plants, and then associated it with the seed left in the mouse's body that he saw this morning.

But surprisingly, after Lü Qiuyang's body burned, no new seeds condensed. However, Xu Yuan decided to leave a small ball of these black filaments.

Xu Yuan packed up the fishy wrapper, beckoned to Fu Jingyu, and came out to find Song Lu and Yu Yunhang: "Let's go back now."

Song Lu's face was still a little pale, but Yu Yunhang felt a little embarrassed and explained, "I've seen many corpses, but to see people being cut up like pigs and sheep, with bones and flesh cut up and placed separately... I couldn't accept it for a moment."

Xu Yuan smiled and assumed that he believed it.

Yu Yunhang was a bit afraid of death and a bit of a boaster, but those weren't really his faults.

And it's obvious that this guy isn't as courageous as he thinks he is.

In any case, he has already reached the rank of Double-Marked Captain of the Ministry of Elimination of Filth, so this should not be the case.

Lang Xiaoba caught up from behind, and Xu Yuan raised his hand to block him: "We are familiar with the road, so we won't bother you."

Lang Xiaoba was stunned, then turned around and left angrily.

Returning to Zhu Sili, he complained, "They no longer trust our Champa Office and won't let me follow them."

Zhu Sili just frowned and didn't express anything else.

……

The four of them walked onto the street. Fu Jingyu glanced back at the Lu Mansion and said, "Before leaving, the teacher secretly told me that if I encountered any difficulties, I could go to the 'Yilihe' pawnshop on Hanshui Street in the north of the city and ask for Zhang Lao, the court official."

Xu Yuan's eyes flickered. Could it be that before Ma Tianshou left, he also saw that there was something wrong with the Champa Office? So he left a trick for Fu Jingyu?
"Let's go to Hanshui Street."

Yu Yunhang hurriedly went to ask for directions. The four of them headed north and it took them an hour to reach the intersection of Hanshui Street.

This is a deserted little street, only about a hundred feet long, connecting two main streets.

The streets are mostly lined with shops selling the four treasures of the study.

"Yi Li He" is not difficult to find. There is a signboard with the words "Lucky Rat and Money" hanging in front of the door.

Yu Yunhang pushed the door open and called out, "Is anyone there?"

Behind the tall counter, footsteps sounded: "Here they come."

A young shop assistant poked his head out from the back and said, "Put the things you want to pawn on the counter..." Then, noticing the uniforms of the officials from the Exorcism Bureau, he immediately stopped talking and said, "Gentlemen, what are you doing..."

"Don't take it as a thing, find someone, Zhang Lao Ya."

The shop assistant said, "Please wait a moment, gentlemen."

The four of them waited patiently for a while, but there was still no movement behind the counter. Yu Yunhang became a little impatient: "This young man is really clueless. Why is he taking so long?"

But since it was Ma Tianshou who introduced him, they couldn't get angry. After waiting for a while, the four of them felt something was wrong: "It's been too long."

Yu Yunhang knocked hard on the wooden board on the counter: "Hey! Where's the person?"

Xu Yuan came out, and he and Fu Jingyu went around from both sides separately, and soon found the back door of the shop in the alley behind the street.

A small door was painted black, most of the paint had peeled off.

The door was half open, but there was no movement inside!

　The New Year is coming soon!
　　Another outbreak before the New Year!
　　Asking for a monthly ticket.
