Chapter 353: Puppetry
"Ah, no, don't misunderstand me, we just want to ask Huang Xiaoxu some questions."
Afraid that the woman would misunderstand that he was there to extort money, Tu Ran quickly explained.
There were two little girls in front of the door, and they didn't seem to have any malicious intentions.
Wang Fengxia slowly opened the door and said, "Come in."
As soon as you enter the door, you can smell the smell of urine in the air.
When I turned my head, I saw a white-haired old lady sitting on the sofa, watching TV in a daze.
But she had already become incontinent, and urine was flowing down her trouser legs, but she had no idea.
Mu Wanjun covered her nose and almost retched.
"My mother-in-law has also been mentally ill for many years."
"The house is a mess, be careful not to step on the garbage." Wang Fengxia reminded in a low voice.
Then they saw Huang Xiaoxu in the second bedroom.
He was sleeping, his face didn't look very good, it was gray, and there were some bruises under his eyes.
He was wearing some torn shirts and trousers.
"He fell asleep?" Tu Ran asked.
"After taking that psychiatric medication, I become drowsy and sleep all day long."
"If I don't eat, I'll become very irritable."
"There's no way. I have no way." Wang Fengxia choked a little.
"Aunt Wang, did you notice anything unusual the night your son attacked Doctor Sun?"
"No, I don't even know what time he went out that night."
"It's strange. He's also been known to run away in the middle of the night before. No one knows where he went, and he comes back without saying anything. Sometimes his shoes are covered in mud."
"I didn't expect it to be so serious this time. You almost strangled Doctor Sun to death, didn't you?"
"I'm so sorry, little girl."
"If you want compensation, we really don't have it."
"Xiao Xu's father is gone, and the family relies on me alone to support the stall."
"All the demolition compensation was used to treat the child's illness and buy medicine."
"But I can apologize to you. I kneel down for you."
"I apologize to Dr. Sun on behalf of my son."
After saying that, Wang Fengxia was about to kneel down in front of Tu Ran, but Tu Ran was quick to support her.
"Auntie Wang, you don't need to do this."
"He is a patient, we understand."
"We came here today to investigate some clues."
"We are afraid that your son will be exploited by someone with ulterior motives."
"Ah?" Wang Fengxia really didn't expect this step.
"That's impossible. My son is mentally ill. He doesn't interact with anyone and doesn't have many friends. Who would take advantage of him?"
Tu Ran didn't say anything, just looked at Huang Xiaoxu and frowned slightly.
"There's no more corpse energy on the body."
"That night."
"But I'm sure they're one person."
"It's impossible to change people."
"I'm very sensitive to smells and won't make a mistake." Mu Wanjun reminded in a low voice.
Tu Ran looked at Wang Fengxia and said, "Auntie Wang, can I take Huang Xiaoxu's pulse? I'm Dr. Sun's apprentice and I also study Chinese medicine."
"Of course, thank you for your help."
When Wang Fengxia heard that she was going to take her son's pulse, she thought it was a good thing and she became more and more fond of the two little girls in front of her.
While Huang Xiaoxu was asleep, Tu Ran sat down beside her bed and then put his hand on his rough wrist.
After checking both left and right, Tu Ran stood up.
"How's it going, little girl?"
"Can you tell what's wrong with my son? They say your Chinese medicine is amazing. I've taken him to see a doctor before, but mental illness is not easy to treat. I've given up after all these years."
"Huang Xiaoxu is in good health, there's nothing serious wrong with him."
"We have nothing else to do, so we'll leave first. We'll come back when he's awake and free."
"Okay, then take your time."
Seeing that the two little girls didn't ask for money and didn't make things difficult for her, Wang Fengxia felt a little guilty.
After leaving this house, Tu Ran sighed slightly.
"What did you find out?" Mu Wanjun knew that she must have found out something.
Even though there was no expression on her face.
"Wanjun."
"I know you are knowledgeable about this, so I'm asking you."
"Is there any way to control a fool and make him obey orders and kill people?"
"There are too many such techniques, manipulation techniques."
"The simplest one is ghost possession, where a dark spirit takes over and controls a person's consciousness."
"You should have seen these in TV dramas." Mu Wanjun replied.
"You said before that he had corpse energy, right?"
"But Huang Xiaoxu is not dead. He is alive. What kind of martial arts could have the corpse aura on his body?" Tu Ran asked again.
"There are many different types of corpse training techniques. The corpse energy on his body isn't necessarily his own. It could be carried by some spirit that possessed him at the time. Once the spirit left, he returned to normal. That's why Bai Yi said that after the incident, when he was questioned, he didn't know anything and didn't remember anything."
Tu Ran turned his head and looked at Mu Wanjun, "I just took his pulse and found a black line in his body."
"Black line?" Mu Wanjun was shocked.
"To be precise, it's not a black line, it's black energy. But this energy is very strange, like a line, looming in his body. If you don't have strong skills and a careful mind, you won't be able to detect it."
"It's an abnormal airflow that shouldn't exist in the human body."
"Could it be... the legendary puppetry?" Mu Wanjun was stunned.
"Puppetry?"
Mu Wanjun nodded. "Yes, it's one of the famous sorcerers in Nanyang. The wizard can remotely control others, treating their bodies as puppets, and cast a spell on them to control their every word and action. It's a bit like the scarecrow in Maoshan magic."
"I see. So that's how it is." Tu Ran looked solemn.
"It seems that there is a powerful wizard behind Huang Xiaoxu."
"Black energy is flowing through the body. This is a typical Nanyang curse."
"I haven't been exposed to it, but my grandma told me about it."
"This is probably the big fish you're looking for." Mu Wanjun blinked cutely, showing no fear at all.
Tu Ran remained silent, recalling that since Li Min's death, she was fine, but strange things kept happening around Old Man Sun, and he even had the ability to kill people in dreams.
From this we can see that the person who killed Li Min not only had great power, but also had a master of witchcraft around him.
This is very troublesome...
This is no longer something that can be solved by calling the police. It is beyond the ability of a normal person.
"Wanjun, this matter is a bit complicated."
"As for the rest of the matter, please step aside and I will check it myself." Tu Ran fastened his seat belt and started the car.
"Are you looking down on me, Tu Tu?" Mu Wanjun smiled slightly.
"You know that's not what I meant. I'm just worried that you might be in danger..."
Mu Wanjun turned her head and looked ahead with a smile in her eyes, "Sister, let me introduce myself to you again. My name is Mu Wanjun, and I come from the Mu family in southern Sichuan."
Tu Ran widened his eyes and looked at Mu Wanjun in disbelief. The blood in his hands, which were placed on the steering wheel, seemed to be frozen.
The Mu family in southern Sichuan? This is a legendary...
