I have a book of salvation

Chapter 180 Chapter 179: All members of the ghost ship died suddenly

Two or three days have passed since the death of Li Jianan and his son.

Almost all the officials from the Criminal Department, the Military Affairs Department, and the Prison Department were mobilized.

--check!

But after two days and two nights of busy work, except for the "burn"-like damage found on the wounds on both of their bodies, no other clues were found.

Based on the familiar "burn"-like damage, the Supervisor judged that the two men should have died from some kind of magical power or magical weapon with "sharp" and "scorching" properties.

After knowing this, Yang Wei immediately slapped the table!

oops!

Isn't this the same as the person who was killed by the "judge" before?

The murderer...or the "judge"?

Come to a conclusion.

But the third division of the government, who thought they could close the case after identifying the murderer, was dumbfounded again.

For nothing else.

It's just because the judge has been on the government's wanted list for a long time, and he has not been caught yet.

They have no idea who the other is!

Therefore, the case of Li Jianan and his son could only be put on hold for the time being.

Only one more bloody crime was added to the judge's wanted order.

——Murder the imperial court official and the military officer.

But this might be a big deal for others, but it wasn't that big of a deal for the "judge".

Because he has too many crimes.

Don’t worry if you have too many lice.

On the contrary, many people in Jinling, after reading about this matter from the wanted notice, started to sing praises.

——Simple common people don’t care whether you are a court official or a military officer.

They only vote with their feet. Usually Li Jianan and his son are used to being domineering, which naturally attracts complaints. Now someone kills them. In the eyes of the people, they are doing harm to the people!

Not only did this incident not worsen the reputation of the Yin Division judge, it actually set off a craze among the lower classes of Aurous Hill.

Various styles of operas with the role of judge and gadgets with angry facial expressions are endless.

That evening, after Yu Chen heard a play about Judge Jiao'er from Jinling City, he returned to Wanjialing in the wind and snow.

Sit down cross-legged and breathe out.

After breaking through the spiritual phase, forging a golden body, and possessing high-grade spiritual roots, he no longer needs to use spiritual baht to practice breathing.

The efficiency of the gathering energy of heaven and earth is enough to support his progress in the spiritual realm.

A night of silence.

Early the next morning, Yu Chen had just finished recuperating. He got up to cook a pot and cooked a bowl of porridge, adding some minced meat and chopped green onion. After drinking it happily, he exhaled a long breath of hot air and burped comfortably.

As soon as I put down the dishes, I picked up the broom and prepared to sweep the snow in front of the door.

But before the two brooms were danced, a burst of noise came from the direction down the mountain.

Yu Chen put down the broom.

have to!

The brothers are here again.

After a while, the corpse collectors, who were already quite familiar, came up the mountain noisily.

Each of them had hemp ropes tied to their backs, dragging a huge bucket truck with force.

After arriving at Wanjialing, I left it there and started digging a hole.

Yu Chen brought out several bowls of hot soup from the house, and after drinking it for the body collectors, he pointed at the truck and asked what was going on.

Several body collectors said to him while thanking him.

——This thing is very strange!

In fact, Yu Chen knew it without them having to tell him.

Through his own eyes, through the body of the dilapidated bucket truck, what he saw was that there were mummies inside.

It was as if all the flesh and blood had been drained from the body, leaving only skin and bones, a miserable death state.

There was ice on their bodies, hair, and clothes, just like they were fished out of the water.

Anyway, to put it bluntly, it doesn't look like he died normally.

The leader of the body collector put down his hoe and shovel, rubbed his waist, and pulled back the white cloth on the truck, revealing an extremely old mummy. His face was not pretty, and he said: "Look at the grave, brother, there was news not long ago. You know about the ghost ship that’s making a lot of noise, right?”

Immediately afterwards, he told what he had heard.

Let’s say that the dozen or so mummies inside this truck were originally the crew of the “Xingsheng”, a fishing boat owned by the Fuding Chamber of Commerce.

——Although Jinling is located in the northern border of Daxia, it is quite far away from the prosperous capital city.

But as the saying goes, rely on mountains to eat mountains and rely on water to eat water. Although Jinling is not as prosperous as the capital, it is located in the Cangjiang River, one of the nine rivers, which flows into the sea. The fishery is almost the most developed in the whole of Daxia.

One of the five cities, Baishi City, is located south of Jinling. Four or five huge ports have been built, where countless fishing boats and merchant ships dock every day.

Several large chambers of commerce in Jinling jointly control the fishery, and they all have a tight grip - they all have their own fishing boats, and they work every day to catch fish from the offshore and sell them to the shore. All over Daxia.

This Xingsheng fishing boat belongs to the Fuding Chamber of Commerce and is one of its hundreds of fishing boats.

Let's talk about that night five days ago, Lin Qi, the captain of the Xingsheng, led a team to go fishing for ten days.

The fishing and hunting area off the coast of Jinling, and the port of Baishi City radiating outward for 500 miles, are all safe areas opened by the Jinling government.

There are no reefs or underwater monsters. The only thing you need to pay attention to is the big waves that may be blown up by a snowstorm at any time.

All in all, this Jinling fishing business is not a dangerous one.

The Fuding Chamber of Commerce is also waiting, waiting for the Xingsheng to return with a full load in ten days.

But it hasn't even been ten days yet. Last night, the lighthouse watchman saw that the Xingsheng was back!

Just as I was about to notify the port, I suddenly realized that something didn't seem right about the Xingsheng?

——It doesn’t look like it drove back on its own, but was pushed back by the waves.

At that time, the night watchman was still muttering that the crew of the Xingsheng were really crazy, and they were not afraid that the waves would take them to the Cangjiang River.

Before he could finish muttering, the Xingsheng rammed straight towards the rudder of the port. With a bang, the port shook, waking up the entire port.

Everyone was anxious and angry. They came over one after another and rolled up their sleeves, hoping to let the crew of the Xingsheng see why the flowers were so red.

But when the Prosperity hit the shore, they ran over angrily to look at the ship.

It was like a basin of cold water poured over my heart immediately!

Scared into becoming a grandson!

The Xingsheng is indeed still the Xingsheng. Except for the damage caused by hitting the shore, the ship can be said to be intact all day long.

But the people inside have long since died!

In every corner of the fishing boat, mummies were lying around, as if they had been decaying for tens or hundreds of years.

Judging from their clothes and fish tags, they were the crew members of the Xingsheng who went to sea five days ago!

But it’s only five days!

These guys seem to have spent decades, living and dying!

Where have you seen this battle before?

Reported to the official immediately.

When the officials came, they inspected the body and found the voyage notes on the ship, which recorded some of the things they encountered.

Nine times out of ten, it's all trivial matters.

But only one item mentioned the "ghost ship" that was widely circulated in Jinling's fishing circles. It is said that it is a huge shadow that comes and goes without a trace. Every time it appears, it is far away in the thick fog, like a flash in the pan. , there have been several sightings recorded.

But the previous few times were just witnesses.

Only this time, something unexpected happened.

All sixteen crew members of the Xingsheng died suddenly!

Not one left!

In the end, the lifeless Xingsheng drifted with the surging waves and finally returned to Jinling Port.

That's how this happened.

After the government conducted the autopsy, it is said that they sent people to board the ship and go to sea to investigate. As for the dried corpses, they asked the corpse movers to bring them up and bury them.

"Brother Grave, do you think these things are scary?"

In the end, the leader of the body collector shook his head and said, "A living person! He has aged dozens of years in a few days - look at this hair, it breaks at the touch of a touch!"

After that, they sighed, buried the corpses in Wanjialing, and went down the mountain.

Yu Chen frowned and brought the ghosts standing on the grave into the mausoleum guarding room.

——Death with eyes closed, unrequited wish.

Sixteen sailors died in a violent accident, and there were three ghosts in total. They died with their eyes open and left behind their last wishes.

An old man and two young men wandered by the Huangquan River, unwilling to leave for a long time.

And their revolving door also started running in front of Yu Chen's eyes.

Among the three ghosts, the older one is named Wu Gang, the helmsman of the Xingsheng. He has been sailing the ship for more than thirty years and has never had any problems.

As for the slightly younger two ghosts, a sturdy man in his thirties, Lin Qi, the captain of the Prosperity, has the final say on this ship.

A short and fat young man named Huang Feng was a fisherman on the boat. He planned to marry his childhood sweetheart after saving enough money from this trip.

On the day of sailing, everyone was in high spirits, saying that this first shot of the New Year must be a success!

There were no problems in the first three days. There was a bumper fish harvest and everyone was smiling.

But on the fourth day, something went wrong.

The exclamation of a young crew member who had just boarded the ship woke up everyone who was sleeping.

Lin Qi brought people out to take a look.

I saw endless fog filling the vast ocean, and a fan-shaped shadow like a sail passed through the thick fog and disappeared without a trace.

Everyone was shocked!

React immediately!

——Ghost ghost ship!

Lin Qi and Wu Gang were experienced and knew that there were many unknown and terrifying things in this vast ocean, so they immediately prepared to return home.

But this ship was driving, and several crew members suddenly fell to the ground without warning.

The skin is shriveled, the hair is withered and gray, the teeth are falling out, and the eyes are cloudy. For a moment, it seems like a hundred years have passed, and they are dying of old age!

Then, it's everyone's turn.

His whole body was limp and weak, and he felt that all his energy and blood were draining away in an instant, and he collapsed in large pieces!

No sound!

The revolving door ends here.

All images disappeared.

But Yu Chen's brows furrowed tightly.

Let’s start with this, although what the corpse collector said was mysterious. He was deprived of vitality and longevity in an instant, and a few days seemed like decades had passed.

But he didn't believe anything so bizarre.

The guess is that it was caused by some monsters that sucked life force.

As long as you watch the revolving door of these three ghosts, everything will become clear.

But at this moment, he saw it clearly.

Except for the legendary ghost ship that flashed by, there was no ghost!

——The sixteen living people of Xingsheng died of old age in a matter of seconds.
