Chapter 183 Yun Shu: I Smell a Conspiracy

Yun Shu searched the vicinity but still couldn't find the car. However, she noticed bloody tire tracks near the scene, indicating that someone had clearly driven the car away!

Xin Xiangyun and her agent are both dead, so they definitely didn't drive it away.

Xin Xiangyun's driver and assistant were unaware of what was happening inside the car and then ran away in fright; it wasn't them who drove it away.

Who could it be?

Yun Shu followed the tire tracks to find out what was going on, but the bloody tire tracks disappeared when she reached the dirt road outside the village.

It rained during the day today, and the dirt roads outside the village are full of large puddles. Even a bloodied tire drove over them without leaving a trace.

Although the tire tracks were gone, the car had been used by dead people and was filled with a heavy yin energy, so Yun Shu still had a way to track it down.

She took out a talisman she always carried with her, recited a spell, and the talisman emitted golden light and floated in mid-air.

As the talisman emitted golden light, Yun Shu could clearly see the yin energy floating in the air, and she followed it all the way.

After walking along this dirt road, Yun Shu arrived at a large river not far from the village, where she saw someone washing a car.

Yun Shu sensed something was wrong just by looking at his face, and walked straight up to him, saying, "You dare to steal a car where someone died? Are you out of your mind?!"

The car thief was a man, and he was startled when he saw Yun Shu suddenly appear.

But then, upon realizing that Yun Shu was a woman, he said disdainfully, "What I do is none of your business. If you know what's good for you, get lost, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

Yun Shu looked at him coldly, "Did someone tell you that someone would die in this car, and wanted you to go and pick up the scraps and drive it away?"

The car thief didn't say anything, but sized up Yun Shu.

Someone did tell him that he could snag a luxury car worth over a million today. However, that person didn't tell him for free; he paid for the information.

That person also said that people would die on this vehicle, but he was brave and didn't care about such things.

After all, he only spent 10,000 yuan to buy the information, but if he cleans up the car that was involved in the accident, modifies it a bit, and sells it to another place, he can at least sell it for several hundred thousand yuan!

Seeing that he remained silent, Yun Shu continued, "Who told you this news? Do you know that the person in this car just died, and you stole it? You could very well be mistaken for a murderer by the police. If you don't want to go to jail, tell me who that person is!"

The car thief sneered and pulled out a long knife from behind his back.

"I specialize in stealing wrecked cars. If I were afraid of the police, I would have quit this line of work long ago! You bitch, daring to come here alone in the middle of the night, don't you know that meddling in other people's business will get you killed soon!"

After he finished speaking, his eyes hardened, and he directly gripped the long knife and thrust it towards Yun Shu.

Before his knife could even touch Yun Shu, she kicked him, shattering his wrist and sending his long knife crashing to the ground.

"ah!"

The car thief collapsed to the ground with a groan, his face pale as he clutched his hand, staring at Yun Shu in terror.

He never expected that this seemingly thin and weak little girl would know martial arts, and that she could break his wrist in one move.

He thought he heard a cracking sound just now; it must be that the bone in his wrist broke!

Yun Shu looked at him expressionlessly, "Tell me who sent you to steal the car, or don't blame me for being impolite."

"It's...it's Jiang Zhiyang! Jiang Zhiyang gave me the information so I could steal the car!"

The car thief confessed.

Yun Shu had never heard of Jiang Zhiyang before, so she took out her phone and called the police first, planning to ask who he was when the police arrived.

Yun Shu hadn't originally planned to call the police and deal with the woman with red flowers herself, but when she arrived and found her car stolen, she felt that this was more than just a case of a ghost killing someone.

Otherwise, how would Jiang Zhiyang have known that someone was going to die tonight? He even contacted a car thief in advance and had him lie in wait here to steal the car.

After making the call to the police, Yun Shu sat cross-legged by the river to cultivate, while waiting for the police to arrive.

Seeing that she was sitting there with her eyes closed, the car thief didn't dare to provoke her anymore. He secretly got up and tried to sneak into the nearby woods to escape.

As soon as he entered the woods, he saw a familiar figure standing there.

Yun Shu looked at him expressionlessly. "I just told you to wait there for the police. You better not try to run away, or I'll have to knock you out."

The car thief looked at her in horror.

He clearly remembered that she had been sitting motionless by the river just moments before, so how did she suddenly appear here!

He nervously turned his head to look towards the riverbank, but Yun Shu was no longer there.

"A ghost, you're a ghost!"

The car thief looked at Yun Shu with increasing fear, screaming and backing away.

"Don't come any closer! Don't kill me!"

Hearing his cries, Yun Shu became impatient, so she knocked him unconscious, dragged him back, and threw him next to the car.

After waiting for a long time, it was almost dawn when the police finally arrived from outside the mountain.

The place was quite remote, so Yun Shu went out and brought the police over. Pointing to the unconscious car thief, she explained the general situation.

Then she led the police to the crime scene.

Seeing the blood all over the ground and the two lonely human heads on the ground, the police officers had mixed expressions, clearly shocked by the case.

Because the case was quite serious, Yun Shu even went to the police station with the police to cooperate with the investigation.

The police didn't bring her back until the afternoon of the next day.

Because the police not only questioned her, but also many local villagers, Yun Shu learned who Jiang Zhiyang was.

Jiang Zhiyang was originally from this village; he is the still-living son of Honghua Nu.

It is said that when Honghua Nu lived to be over ninety years old, she suddenly grew new teeth. Jiang Zhiyang and his wife heard from somewhere that when an old person grows new teeth, they will turn into a monster, not only living longer and longer, but also constantly eating their descendants.

Later, he and his wife dug a pit on the mountain and locked their biological mother inside. In the end, their biological mother starved to death in the pit.

Jiang Zhiyang's elderly mother died so tragically that she harbored a deep resentment, which turned her into an evil spirit and devoured Jiang Zhiyang's newborn son. This frightened Jiang Zhiyang and his wife so much that they moved out of the village and went to the city to work and make a living.

Although Jiang Zhiyang is gone, the Red Flower Girl continues to eat people in the mountains.

She would appear every now and then and eat a villager who came up the mountain. Each time, she would only eat the body and not the head. After eating, she would leave behind a red flower, which is why she was called the Red Flower Girl.

Yun Shu was thinking about Jiang Zhiyang when she came in from outside the courtyard and bumped into You Shuqing.

When You Shuqing saw her return, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "Yun Shu, it's good that you're back. I thought the police were going to keep you detained. I was even about to drive out to look for you!"

You just left with the police, and someone took a picture of you and posted it online. Now people online are saying you killed Xin Xiangyun and her agent!
