After pulling it up, everyone gathered around, and on the skin of the dead body, everyone saw the wound on the chest at a glance.
Several long wounds spread between the chest and abdomen of the corpse, with intersecting lines, which look a bit like tortoise shells, and the patterns formed are not like Chinese characters. If you have to use Chinese characters to compare them, it is the character "仁". .
Yuan Xi and the others crouched in front of the corpse and began to observe.
"This is the sacrifice technique! The sacrifice technique in the black witchcraft!" Granny Wu gasped and said, her voice trembling, "Fourty-nine piercing soul technique!"
"Senior, please explain clearly!"
Grandma Wu ignored Ye Chen's question, raised her head, looked at the elders with searching eyes, and they all came closer to observe and nodded one after another.
"That's right...it's the four-nine piercing soul technique. I really didn't expect this kind of witchcraft to be used today..." Elder Chen was also very emotional, pointing to the wound in the shape of the word "Ren" on the chest of the dead body and said to everyone: "Everyone please Look, this man has been dead for so long, and his flesh has softened and rotted, but the wounds on his chest are still sunken, and the flesh has not turned out. This proves that this person was not cut directly by a sword or other weapon. In fact, it was Before killing people, it was first quenched with bamboo and rattan, and branded one by one.
This bamboo rattan is not ordinary bamboo rattan, but...you can't understand the name in Miao language. That kind of rattan grass has no Chinese name. In short, it is a kind of grass with strong spirituality. It is woven with bamboo poles and soaked in the five poisons In the cup—I won’t go into details about the five-poison Gu cup. In short, it is a very evil witchcraft. It is soaked for forty-nine days, then taken out and roasted on the fire. When the bamboo rattan is about to burn, stick it on the human body. Use flesh and blood to quench the fire, after the temperature drops, dip the potion in the five-poison Gu cup, continue roasting on the fire, and then quench it with the human body... In this way, for one or two hours, the wound in the shape of the word "Ren" is completed, and the human body Blood will be dried and people will die.
The soul is locked in the body to form a 'human gu'. This kind of human gu is used for sacrifices. The body can continuously generate resentment and be absorbed by the ceremony. There are a total of forty-nine people, but they can make the sacrifice ceremony continue for a long time. Better than killing hundreds of people. "
After hearing this, everyone had a look of terror on their faces.
Ye Xiaomu thought about how painful it must have been for this person to be repeatedly roasted by the bamboo vines? Why in the world is there such a terrible sorcery
But obviously he is more rare than strange. After listening, Ye Chen said: "Forgive me, although this sorcery is evil and cruel, I have seen some evil mages in the mainland with methods that are more cruel than this. If you want to accumulate grievances, there are at least a hundred kinds of Maoshan techniques." It is more vicious and effective than this spell, so... I also ask the seniors to enlighten me, what is so special about this four-nine piercing soul spell?"
Before the wizards opened their mouths, Ye Xiaomu asked first, "Is there really so many harmful spells in Maoshan?"
Ye Chen squinted at him disdainfully, as if telling him that he was not qualified to talk to him. He replied coldly: "You are a low-level disciple of Maoshan's outer sect, you don't know that these are too normal, you should go back and ask your head teacher, what is the sorcery in the world coming out of Maoshan."
Elder Chen corrected the topic and replied: "The four-ninth piercing soul technique lies in the word 'piercing', which means threading a needle. It is actually not very effective to perform this sacrifice technique alone, at least it is not irreplaceable by other spells. But in In Miaojiang witchcraft, the four-nine soul piercing technique will not be performed alone, but in conjunction with other witchcraft... On the basis of the four-nine soul piercing technique, other spells will be performed?"
Everyone felt strange after hearing his words, Ye Chen asked: "What kind of spell are you casting?"
"In principle, the four-nine soul piercing technique can be used with all kinds of witchcraft, especially the most evil and terrifying witchcraft."
Su Xiangyu took over the topic and explained: "For example, the Sijiu Soul Piercing Technique is like a medicine introduction, which is used with the main medicine. But the medicine introduction is special enough, which shows that the main medicine is even more extraordinary."
Her analogy is easy to understand.
As for what the "main medicine" of these blood witches is, these wizards can't judge for the time being.
So everyone started discussing other things, such as the origin of the corpse and how long it had been here. Everyone is not good at this aspect. They tried to restrain the soul, but the soul sealed in the corpse had also been shattered into spirits, and flew away after being released.
When everyone was at a loss, a girl wearing a mask and ponytail suddenly emerged from the crowd, with a rubber glove on one hand, squatting next to the dead body to check, and even opened her mouth to look.
There were many people at the scene, especially most of them were mages who came spontaneously. Many of them didn't know each other, so no one asked who she was.
After a long while, the girl pinched her chin with one hand and said, "This man has been in the water for no more than three months, and he is a contemporary, he should be a farmer."
She held her throat with one hand, as if her throat was a little uncomfortable, and her voice was very hoarse and weird when she spoke. But Ye Xiaomu was startled, and tilted his head to look at her.
Ye Chen asked: "How do you know?"
"I used to be... a forensic doctor. I can judge the time of drowning from the degree of decay of his body. I said he was a farmer because he had calluses on his palms. Although his hair was soaked, he could still see it. As for the green hair, that's because someone Plant moss."
Everyone looked at each other, for a month... That also coincided with the previous information about the blood witch.
"If my guess is correct, the deceased...and those in the pool are all people who have disappeared in the vicinity in recent months. You should have heard that many people have disappeared within a hundred miles of the vicinity in recent months. People." The girl said as she took out her mobile phone to take pictures of the deceased.
This scene made everyone very suspicious, Ye Chen asked: "Who are you, and which sect?"
"I... you don't care what I'm doing!"
After the girl took the photo, she turned around and walked into the crowd.
"you come back!"
Seeing her ignoring him, Ye Chen suddenly felt very shameless, even if he came by himself, but as a director of the magic guild, being ignored in front of so many people was unbearable, so he greeted Two people were sent to block her.
The two quickly followed, trying to press her shoulder with a bad attitude, when suddenly a yellow-faced man emerged from the crowd and blocked their way.
"What are you doing, get out of the way!" The two were annoyed and pushed the man away.
The man grabbed the hands of the two of them and pushed them lightly, and they fell down immediately.
"who!"
Ye Chen was really angry this time, just as he was about to rush over, someone stepped ahead, got behind the girl, and put his hands on her shoulders—the yellow-faced man looked at her, raised his hand halfway and then put it down, taking advantage of the chaos to get in again into the crowd.
"Mom, is that you!"
