Chapter 183 Chishui Floating Corpse
After feeling the pressure, I didn't go to sleep, but silently took out the information about Nanshan's fierce Buddha. Nangong Yuzhang smiled and asked, "It's a blow!"

I said, "Yes, it's not too light!"

Nangong Xiong didn't say anything, but walked up to me slowly, and started to read the materials of the case with me.

This case is called "Nanshan Fierce Buddha", but the place where we filed the case is not a mountain, but a young son's tomb by the Chishui River at the junction of Sichuan and Guizhou. According to the records, the young son's tomb was a small one during the Ming and Qing Dynasties Later, Chishui changed its course, and the whole town was submerged under Chishui.

And the so-called Nanshan fierce Buddha appeared in the underwater town.

The first time the evil Buddha appeared was during the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom of the Qing Dynasty. Shi Dakai, the leader of the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom, led his army to cross the Chishui River when he broke through the defense lines of the Yangtze River and Jinsha River of the Qing army.

And when the army of the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom passed Chishui four times, there was a legend that Shi Dakai, the king of Yi, was helped by the gods. Without a navy, he defeated the Qing army in Chishui four times. Legend has it that the god used his body as a bridge to For the troops of the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom to pass by, and the God of that day is the Nanshan Ferocious Buddha.

The second time that the evil Buddha appeared was also during the period of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. It was when Shi Dakai was walking westward in resentment. That time Shi Dakai was defeated by the Dadu River.

At that time, Shi Dakai was about to cross the river and built the boat valve, but suddenly he was hit by heavy rain, unable to sail, his march was blocked, and he was surrounded and wiped out by the Qing army.

It is said that Shi Dakai could have crossed the river safely. On the night after the ship valve was built, the fierce Buddha appeared and told Shi Dakai to cross the river quickly, otherwise there would be a catastrophe. Fearing that they would be wiped out by the Qing army after crossing the river, they rested all night on the other side of the river.

But something happened that night, the torrential rain fell, and the flood peak of the Dadu River was fierce, so Shi Dakai was unable to cross the river.

Finally, the Qing army arrived here and surrounded Shi Dakai.

For the safety of his subordinates, Shi Dakai surrendered to the Qing army and agreed to let his subordinates accept the reorganization, but the Qing army betrayed their promises. More than half of Shi Dakai's army was slaughtered, and they were even thrown directly into the Dadu River and washed away by the river.

Since then, Nanshan Ferocious Buddha has not manifested his spirit for a long time.

Until recent years, innocent people often drowned by the Chishui River. After investigation by the Southwest Branch, it was found that all those who drowned had a Buddha spirit on them, and the words "Taiping Heroic Spirit" were written in Yinshui on the back.

The traces of yin water can only be seen by those who have opened their eyes, and ordinary people cannot see them.

Later, the Ghost Bureau suspected that this was the Nanshan ferocious Buddha looking for scapegoats for Shi Dakai's army who died in the battle in Sichuan, and then sent those heroic spirits who died in vain to reincarnate.

And so this case is called "Nanshan Fierce Buddha".

Moreover, the people from the Spiritual Supervision Bureau once encountered the Nanshan Ferocious Buddha at the Youzi Tomb under the Chishui River, and were hurt by its powerful Dharma.

There are probably so many materials. After reading these materials, I can't help being a little surprised. I didn't expect that this case would involve Shi Dakai, the legendary general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Nanshan Ferocious Buddha helped Shi Dakai twice, so it must have a deep relationship with Shi Dakai.

I looked at the information carefully, trying to find an introduction about the origin of the Nanshan Ferocious Buddha, but I didn't find any other useful clues.

After driving for a while, Nangong Yuzhang said to me: "Let's go find that underwater town. Since someone has seen the Nanshan Ferocious Buddha there, maybe we can find something there too."

I also nodded.

But it was a bit late today, so we didn’t rush on the road right away, we rested for the night, and we finished our morning homework at dawn the next morning, and then drove to the junction of Sichuan and Guizhou.

When the car arrived at four o'clock in the afternoon, we stopped at a place called Jinsha Harbor. According to the address on the information given to us by Cai Ying, the underwater town of Youzi's Tomb was near Jinsha Harbor, with a margin of error of no more than [-]. inside.

So we searched the draft river around here well.

Nangong Lian has the eye of the galaxy, the depth of the Chishui River Nangong Lian can see the bottom of the river at a glance, so we drove along the river bank, and in the middle of the night, we had already searched the area of ​​Jinsha Port, [-] miles east and west. , but Nangong Xiong said that she did not find any traces of a small town under the water.

Hearing what Nangong Xiong said, I was a little depressed. We couldn't find the town of Youzifen. We wanted to find the Nanshan Ominous Buddha by the Chishui River. It would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Regarding the purpose of this case, the materials Cai Ying gave us also clearly marked it, let us find the Nanshan fierce Buddha, and eliminate the occurrence of local people being pulled to take the place of the dead ghost.

However, there is one thing that is not clearly stated in the information, that is, to confirm that this matter was really done by the Nanshan Ferocious Buddha.

When I came here, Nangong Yuzhang also told me that she said that although the fierce Buddha is fierce, he is a Buddha after all, and he would not do anything to kill innocent people indiscriminately, so he felt that there was someone else in this case. It may be the Nanshan Ferocious Buddha, unless the Ferocious Buddha is no longer a Buddha.

In short, there are multiple possibilities in this case, and we must investigate them one by one.

The most direct and effective way to conduct investigations is to find the Nanshan Ferocious Buddha.

In the middle of the night, we still had no news of Youzifen, so we found a wider place to park the car, and then rested in the car. Now it was dark, and we decided to look around again after dawn.

In fact, there are many places on the banks of the Chishui River where cars are not allowed. During the day, we just took a rough look at the places where cars can be used. Waiting for tomorrow, we will check it more carefully.

It's night, nothing to say.

In the early morning of the next day, we got up early, we drove to Jinsha Harbor and stopped, and then we were going to walk along the Chishui River.

We decided to head west first.

We started walking along the road, then there were trails we didn't drive, and then there were no trails at all.

There are many places along the Chishui River with deep ditches and dangerous mountains. Ordinary people walking along this river may accidentally roll into the river. Fortunately, Nangong and I are both monks. As for rolling into the river and being drowned.

Every time he walked a certain distance, Nangong Xiong would stop and look into the river for a while.

And my side is similar, I tried to use my breath to investigate, but unfortunately I couldn't even detect the bottom of the water, let alone discover anything.

After we stopped at a place with a deep ditch and a dangerous mountain, before Nangong Yuzhang could use the Eye of the Galaxy, she let out a "huh", and I asked her what's wrong.

She pointed to the river in the distance and said, "Is that a floating corpse?"

Although I am already a celestial master and my eyesight has been greatly improved compared to before, I am still not as good as Nangong Yulin. I can only see the raging river when I look in the direction she pointed, and I can't see anything else.

Nangong Xiong said: "Look carefully, the floating corpse is flowing down the river."

I said "Ah" and looked carefully, and about a minute later, I vaguely saw the floating corpse. When we got closer, Nangong Yuzhang took out a strand of rope from his backpack and flew to the surface of the river. Come on, fish that corpse out of the river!

Nangong Xiong threw the floating corpse in front of me, and I was shocked by the appearance of the corpse.

The floating corpse has been soaked and swollen badly, its eyes are wide open, but there is no expression at all, the most important thing is that there is a small fish turning its tail in one of the eyeballs, and other parts of the floating corpse have also been pecked by fish Bite marks.

The rope that Nangong Xiong used to retrieve the corpse just now was embedded in the corpse a few inches, and the flesh of the corpse had been completely soaked. It seemed that the corpse had been dead for a while.

Seeing such a situation, I endured vomiting and took a few steps back.

Nangong Xiong turned over the rope in her hand, and the corpse was turned upside down. She pinched a finger to tear off the clothes on the corpse, and then she pointed to the back of the body and said: "Sure enough, there are four One word, Heroic Spirit of Peace!"

I couldn't see it at first, but after pinching a finger to open my eyes, I could see it. There are four black characters on the back of the body that is somewhat rotten.

I didn't say a word, but asked Nangong Yuzhang if there was any Buddha energy in this corpse!
Nangong Xizang was stunned for a while and said, "I don't have Buddha spirit, but..."

I asked Nangong Xie what was going on, but before Nangong could answer, the already swollen and rotting corpse suddenly stood up, and then rushed towards me with water all over it!
That body turned out to be a living corpse! ?
