death

Chapter 57 The dead body on the pier
I have also seen the power of Tian Sihan's caterpillar, especially the scene where it pierced a big hole in Professor Ma's forehead, I can still vividly remember it.

But in the current situation, I'm still not optimistic about it, because the huge snake on the opposite side is too imposing.

Tian Sihan didn't worry about his caterpillar at all. He let the caterpillar out, pointed at the giant gnat and said, "Xiao Hei, dinner is ready!"

The caterpillar suddenly became excited, and instantly turned into a black afterimage and jumped towards the snake.

At first I couldn't see the caterpillar's movements clearly, but as I slowly adjusted my breath and used my breath to stabilize the veins in my whole body, I slowly discovered that my eyes could keep up with the caterpillar. The insect moved.

The caterpillar moved very fast, but the gnat was not to be outdone. Seeing the caterpillar rushing towards him, he opened his mouth with pliers and bit the caterpillar.

Seeing this, the caterpillar dodged to the side, and then jumped straight onto the back of the antler's head. The antler's body began to roll over, trying to shake the caterpillar off, but the caterpillar was also very powerful, and its string of tiny feet stuck tightly to the antler's head. On the top of his head, no matter how hard he tried to shake the gnat, he couldn't get rid of it.

Soon, the caterpillar stabilized its body, opened its mouth and bit the head of the gnat.

"Crack, click!"

The hard shell of the scorpion slowly began to shatter.

"Squeak..."

The huge gnat screamed sharply. Although its shell was quickly crushed, the gnat did not give up. It suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Tian Sihan. Tian Sihan was not afraid of the gnat at all. Straight out, it seems that he is going to reach out and grab it.

In the middle of the rush, the scorpion suddenly turned its eyes on me for some reason, then it turned suddenly and flew towards me.

I was taken aback by this cup, and subconsciously stretched out my fist to block it.

But my movements were still a bit slow, the scorpion hit my arm, and my body fell back directly.

"Oh!"

I fell heavily on the ground, and my head hit the roof of the building. Suddenly, my head was a little dazed, and my eyes turned black.

"Chen Yu, get out of the way!" Mai Xiaorou and Tian Sihan's voice came at the same time, and the two also hurried towards me.

At this moment, I saw that huge gnat opened its mouth with pincers, and bit down on my neck.

Although I was scared, I didn't want to die even more. At the same time of fear, I clenched my fist and punched the snake's head hard.

"Oh!"

The gnat was thrown from my body for more than one meter by me, and my right hand suddenly hurt badly. The shell of the gnat was too hard, like an iron plate. I really don’t know how the caterpillar bit through it. of.

After knocking over the gnat, I ran to the side, and Tian Sihan and Mai Xiaorou also came to me at this time.

I went to see the gnat again, and it struggled to get up, but just as it stood up, it shook a few times, and then fell straight down.

The body of the gnat is still twitching, but a hole has been pierced in its head, and the caterpillar is biting the gnat's head with relish.

Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but turned around and vomited out.

Tian Sihan took a deep breath and said: "Fortunately, you are not short-lived, if you are bitten by that big gnat, you will lose half your life if you don't die."

I still have lingering fears on my side, I just nodded and didn't speak.

After a while, a few people came near the teaching building. They went directly to dispose of the corpses of Professor Ma and that of Xiao Zhao in the office. It was clean, and there was no way to see that there was a murder.

As for the big gnat, it was really eaten up by the caterpillar.

Moreover, it only took ten minutes to finish eating the big gnat. After eating, it burped a lot, and then went back to Tian Sihan's bamboo tube to rest.

I looked at Tian Sihan's bamboo tube and said, "That caterpillar of yours is really powerful."

Tian Sihan said proudly: "That's natural, Xiao Hei was given to me by Master, it is not an ordinary Gu."

After saying this, Tian Sihan didn't talk about his caterpillar anymore, but brought the topic back to the case and said, "At first I thought Professor Ma's Anchovy Gu was Professor Ma's Same Life Gu, you probably don't know what is Same fate Gu, let me tell you, same fate Gu is a Gu worm that Gu masters planted for certain people to help them prolong their lifespan. The physique becomes stronger, such as greater strength, faster speed, etc."

When Tian Sihan said this, I thought of Professor Ma's situation at that time, and his speed became extremely fast.

Tian Sihan continued: "The Gu in Professor Ma's body has this characteristic, so I thought it was the same-life Gu planted by a certain Gu master, and this same-life Gu has another main special feature, that is, the There is no need for the Gu master to manipulate the air after it is placed, the Gu will automatically affect the person who has been placed under the Gu. In ancient times, among the ethnic minorities in southern Xinjiang, there were many Gu fighters with the same fate. After they were strengthened by Gu, they would He became extremely powerful, and his battles were even more heroic."

"In addition, since it is the same fate Gu, if the Gu worm dies, the person who was infected by the Gu will also die, and if the person who was infected by the Gu dies, the Gu worm will also die."

Hearing what Tian Sihan said, I hurriedly said: "But after Professor Ma died, the Gu worms in his body didn't die!"

Tian Sihan said: "That's right, that's exactly what I'm going to say next, the scorpion cheated to death earlier, making me mistakenly think it was the same fate Gu, and it was also because of my negligence that my two brothers died tragically at its hands , Professor Ma is dead, but the Gu is not dead, which means that it is not the same fate Gu at all."

"Since it is not the same fate Gu, and the level of that Gu is not high, although it has spiritual intelligence, it is not strong enough to have independent consciousness. It is definitely not something that it can control Professor Ma to come to the school to eliminate evidence. Think about it, and do it.”

When Tian Sihan said this, Mai Xiaorou answered, "So, the gnat was controlled by someone?"

Tian Sihan nodded and said: "That's right, that's right. Considering that the level of the Gu worm is not high, the person who manipulated it secretly is not too far away from it. The person just now should be nearby!"

Hearing what Tian Sihan said, I immediately looked around.

He continued: "You don't need to look for it. That person had already left when the Angu Now, we will go to him, and the truth of this case will be revealed, and your third case will also come to an end."

After we left that university, we went back to the hotel first.

After resting until dawn, Tian Sihan called us to set off, saying that his little black had eaten and he could work now.

Today it was me driving again, with Tian Sihan guiding the way.

Our car kept driving southward, and after a while, we came to a place called Ligong Temple, which was close to the Xiangjiang River. There was a flying pier beside the Xiangjiang River, and our car drove directly to the pier.

The car stopped on the edge of the pier, and we saw an old man in black standing there.

His body was a little rickety, and he stood there motionless, leaning on a cane.

I adjusted my breath subconsciously, and then observed his breath, and found that he didn't seem to be breathing.

Tian Sihan rushed over directly, and he walked around in front of the old man, frowning involuntarily.

Mai Xiaorou said directly to me: "That person seems to be dead."

Mai Xiaorou and I also walked over and found that the old man was indeed dead. He stood there very peacefully. There was no sign of a fight nearby, and he didn't look like he was killed.

Could it be suicide?

I asked Tian Sihan if this dead old man was the one who manipulated the gnats last night.

Tian Sihan nodded and said, yes, it was him.

I asked again, is he really dead?

Tian Sihan said helplessly: "Obviously!"

The three of us stood on the pier and looked at each other.

At this moment, I suddenly discovered that there were some characters on the old man's neck. I quickly pointed to it, and Tian Sihan didn't shy away from it, so he peeled off his collar to have a look.

There are some "Tang" characters written there, and there are gossip marks around the Tang characters.

This reminds me of the case of the Bloody Mirror House, where such a mark was left on Zhang Yiheng's face, and the person who left this mark was the old lunatic who once wanted to kill me and Mai Xiaorou.

Could it be that this old man was also killed by that old lunatic?

Seeing that we knew the mark, Tian Sihan asked us about the specific situation.

I told Tian Sihan about our case and meeting that lunatic.

Tian Sihan was stunned for a moment and said, "North China Tang family? It shouldn't be, then the Tang family shouldn't have such great energy, right? Its tentacles have extended to the south, it shouldn't, it shouldn't!"

I said, "Aren't the Tang family a master of Taoism?"

Tian Sihan shook his head and said, "He's just a big family in North China, but even so, it's impossible for him to extend his tentacles here. There must be something inside, not to mention that old lunatic you mentioned shouldn't be here now. A member of the direct lineage of the Tang family!"

Tian Sihan seemed a little confused.

I asked Tian Sihan what to do next, and he said: "I'll deal with the corpses here first, and then we'll just break up. The case of the Gu burying place will be completely over here."

I said, "But there is someone behind this old man."

Tian Sihan said: "The cases we filed before were high-level cases, barely reaching the special-level level, but if we continue to investigate, the case may become a 'secret' level case, which is not our strength. Anyone who can touch it, even my brother Li, he has only done special-level cases, and has not handled 'secret'-level cases."

Hearing what Tian Sihan said, I gave up. With my strength, if I file a case alone, it will be a low-level case at most. With Mai Xiaorou, I can barely handle a mid-to-high-level case. Let's touch it. For a "Secret" case, it is tantamount to going to death.

It seems that our cooperation with Tian Sihan has come to an end.
