Chapter 298: Baby Case (1)
Tao Zi did not rush to the town, but meditated in an uninhabited valley.
As the sun gradually rose, a miniature girl appeared in her palm. Judging from her appearance, she should be a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, which means that she was only twelve or thirteen years old when she was killed.
She looked very weak, and even with Tao Zi's spiritual consciousness protecting her, she seemed very unreal and could disappear at any time, but this did not affect her crying.
Tao Zi said slowly: "If you cry in my mind again, I won't help you get revenge."
The little girl blinked and stopped crying. It took her a quarter of an hour to process what she was saying. "You mean, you'll help me get revenge?"
"certainly."
"Liar, the guy before also said that he would help me get revenge, but it turned out to be a liar. Guess how I dealt with him?" The little girl's voice was still a bit childish.
Tao Zi smiled and said, "You bit him back. If I'm not mistaken, the grass on his grave is three feet tall now."
The little girl curled her lips and said, "I almost forgot, you know everything about me."
She added, "If it weren't for me, you would still be in that doll, a trapped spirit with no reason and only able to cry."
The little girl said in a childish voice, "Do you think I will thank you? No, you are all taking advantage of me."
"Yes, I am using you, but we have the same enemy."
The little girl was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, "No, I killed all those who harmed me."
Tao Zi smiled and said word by word: "Where is Lian Qingzhou?"
She was in a trance for a moment.
"Where is the fake Lian Qingzhou who killed your parents, harmed your sister, and took over your body?"
The little girl screamed, and her cursing and crying echoed in the valley.
Tao Zi continued, "She's living a good life now. She's a beloved disciple of a Heavenly Venerable, and she's loved by her senior brothers and sisters, and praised by everyone. Are you willing to accept this?"
The little girl's voice became sharper. After a long time, she finally calmed down, looked at Tao Zi, and said urgently: "You will help me kill her and help me get my body back, right?"
Tao Zi smiled and said, "Of course I can, but you have to be obedient and be quiet."
"Don't let me find out you're lying to me, or the grass on your grave will be really tall and dense."
After saying these harsh words, the little girl disappeared in his palm.
Tao Zi's mind finally cleared up, and she stood up and walked out of the valley.
The town was still peaceful, and the monks who had gathered here had already left.
Tao Zi stopped a passerby and asked, "Excuse me, where are all the wild graves around here?"
Passersby looked at her as if she were crazy. She sighed and said, "My sister died young. I want to visit her grave, but I don't know where."
There is a custom in this place that children who die before the age of seven cannot be buried in the ancestral tomb. Therefore, the so-called wild cemetery appeared, where young children, vagrants and even criminals were buried.
There were many doubts about this statement, but the passerby still pointed the way.
Tao Zi followed that direction and found the wild cemetery. She wandered around slowly. If someone saw her in this relaxed state, she would probably be regarded as a lunatic.
Finally, she stopped at a piece of ground that looked relatively new, picked up the small chrysanthemums on it with both hands and put them aside, then began to dig a grave.
Not long after digging, her hand touched a small coffin, and she dug it up.
When I opened it, I saw the little skeleton lying there neatly, wrapped in a small blanket and various small toys.
Tao Zi carefully looked at the corpse, then scraped off a layer of grayish-white ashes from the skull with her fingers, tasted it, and frowned.
When she looked up again, the inner demon was standing on her right and the senior was standing on her left. Their expressions were exactly the same and hard to describe.
The inner demon was shocked, but he still remembered his duty: "Tao Zi, I have never felt before that the devil is your final destination. Please consider it."
She calmly lowered her head, put the bones back, reburied them, and put the small chrysanthemum back in its place. She stood up, patted her clothes, looked at her senior, and said, "Senior, is there anything I can help you with?"
The senior shook his head and said in a complicated tone: "No, I'm just too shocked."
Tao Zi said: "I just want to see if this corpse is human."
The two sides said in unison: "Then there's no need to taste it, right?"
"Don't get me wrong, I can already tell it's not human bone, but I'm not sure what animal or something else it's made of. I can only taste it."
The elder's expression was still complicated. He seemed to be about to speak, but stopped himself. Tao Zi stood up and left the wild graveyard, saying as he walked, "Those are the cooked bones of the spirit-binding beast."
The senior's expression suddenly changed: "Binding spirit beast?"
Tao Zi nodded, very sure: "Judging from the texture on the bones and the smell, it's almost certain."
Soul-binding beasts are not rare monsters. They can gather a small amount of spiritual energy nearby around themselves and then grow some strange and precious plants, but there is one thing that she cares about.
Tao Zi turned her head to look at the senior and asked, "The bones of the Soul-Binding Beast are similar to those of humans. I also heard that the alien race likes to keep the Soul-Binding Beast with infants..."
She swallowed the rest of her words because the senior looked really bad.
He nodded and said, "Indeed, this time it's most likely those dirty guys who did it."
Tao Zi lowered her eyes and said, "Not necessarily. They wouldn't be so cautious as to pick up the bones of the Soul Beast and piece them together to form a corpse to hide it from everyone."
In everyone's subconscious, if the body can be recovered, then the murderer must not be an alien, because aliens would not do such an unnecessary thing.
The senior said coldly, "The faint demonic aura on the corpse can also point to the demon clan."
Tao Zi nodded and said, "This corpse is extremely well made. It might not be visible if it weren't for the intervention of a great master. What a coincidence that the people being investigated this time are either independent cultivators or cultivators in the Spiritual Silence Stage. The demon race has to bear the blame for this."
The inner demon taunted, "Are you boasting about being a powerful being?"
Tao Zi said calmly, "Few people would try it like I did, and even fewer people know the taste of a spirit-binding beast."
The senior knew that she was talking to her inner demon, so he didn't say anything.
Speaking of the demon clan, Tao Zi stopped. Did she forget something?
Forget it, don’t think about it for now, this matter is more important now.
At this time, a little fox who woke up early and found that someone in the room had disappeared was already sharpening his claws.
Jiao'er asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
"Some guy left me behind again."
Xi Jing passed by it and said, "Are you talking about Senior Sister? There was no movement in the room three days ago. She should have left long ago. Your reaction is too slow."
The little fox said expressionlessly, "Have you ever thought about pushing the door open and looking inside? What if there's a corpse inside?"
Zhao Xue added: "Aren't you still alive?"
The little fox sharpened its claws even harder. It wanted to see when that thing would remember it if it didn't take the initiative to contact it!
