Chapter 558 A Strange Case
Chapter 558 A Strange Case
This is very strange and there is no way to find out.
The key point is that such things have happened more than once. The Demon Slaying Bureau did not take it seriously at the beginning, but later such cases became more and more frequent. This is the sixth case.
The situation at the scene was pretty much the same.
Logically speaking, such a shantytown is crowded and full of people. If it was man-made, it would have been discovered long ago. However, the coroner concluded that these people had been dead for more than ten days. Logically, it should have been discovered long ago. However, the fact is that someone smelled the stench of the corpse just yesterday, and someone here had seen the deceased the day before yesterday.
It has been ruled out that there is no human factor involved, and there is no suspicious atmosphere at present.
They don't look like evil spirits or ghosts. They have come into contact with many strange cases themselves, but to be honest, no matter how outrageous, there will be some unusual aura in them.
No matter how well it is hidden, the Demon Slayer Bureau will definitely discover it due to its sensitivity to such cases, whether it is intuition or sixth sense.
But this time they found nothing, as if these bodies had died here naturally, which was contrary to what they saw and heard.
The Demon Slayer Division really had no solution.
They have investigated so many cases for so many days, but there is still no clue. There is no connection between the deceased, there is no unusual smell, and human involvement has been ruled out. The scene is weird, but the cases continue to happen. Logically, this should not be the case they are responsible for handling, but this is too strange and too normal.
It feels very inconsistent.
There was no other way, so the people from the Demon Slaying Division finally asked Wei Ming for help.
Although Wei Ming is low-key, many people do not dare to underestimate him. This powerful official who is second only to the emperor is still very popular. After all, he will accept things that many people find troublesome, and he will still take over things that many people find thankless. As long as these things concern the people, he is willing to give it a try.
This is also the reason why, even though many people in the court disliked him, they did not try to kill him. After all, if no one was willing to take these jobs, they would be the ones who would be troubled in the end.
What's more, among the ministers, Wei Ming is truly considered an honest official.
And the Demon Slayer knows even more.
This person also seems to have an ambiguous relationship with another world, just like Wei Ming's youngest son. Many people thought that he had gone out for training, but all the spies of the Demon Slaying Division were unable to find out where he had gone.
For example, the Mirage Chamber of Commerce, this strange organization. The commander-in-chief of the Demon-Slaying Division had personally seen Chen Tao and a young man who looked like a banished immortal. The piece of forest in Jizhou that was razed to the ground is still there.
Various clues describe Wei Ming's unusualness.
The Demon Slaying Division knew it, and the emperor naturally knew it too. They had secretly investigated and questioned him. There was no doubt that Wei Ming was just an ordinary person, and Wei Ming had truly devoted himself to the Yan Dynasty and the people of the world. It was precisely based on this that the Demon Slaying Division and the emperor turned a blind eye to Wei Ming's affairs.
If it were before, it would definitely not be like this.
But after the emperor understood the difference between life and death, these strange and unusual things became nothing more than that.
The Demon Slaying Division came to Wei Ming as a last-ditch effort, as they really had no other options. After seeing this scene, Wei Ming's intuition told him that this case was definitely not simple. He himself could not see anything, but this was the third case he had seen.
So he asked Su Mu for help.
Su Mu also happily agreed to this invitation and was on the way.
“This time it doesn’t feel easy.”
The mirage dragon flying on the wind suddenly said.
"What did you find?" Su Mu looked at the mirage dragon strangely.
"No, it's just an intuition." Shenlong didn't know why he blurted out such a sentence, but it was definitely not good news. If he could predict the future, it meant that the danger was far from as simple as it seemed on the surface.
"Oh!" Su Mu sighed. With the revival of the world, the appearance of this world is becoming more and more like that of the ancient times. In the era ruled by the innate gods, the strange things were definitely a thousand times more serious than they are now.
The original positioning of the innate gods was not actually rulers, but assistants to the world consciousness. The world was their testing ground. You would never know what the world was thinking or what kind of things it would come up with. Even the innate gods could not resonate with the world.
The world is too vast, and his consciousness and thinking have transcended matter itself and common sense. In his previous life, Su Mu often read novels in which the protagonists went against the will of heaven and fought against heaven and earth. But when you really face it, such ideas become ridiculous. The world will, a consciousness that transcends all settings such as era, time, and space, will really give you a feeling of a mayfly seeing the blue sky.
It’s like humans looking up at the starry sky. Because it’s too far away, we can’t see the whole picture. But when you get closer and closer to one of the stars, even an inconspicuous one, you will be shocked beyond words.
So Su Mu has a bit of awe towards the world.
In fact, there are still many unknown places in the world, such as the quiet place beyond the four seas, and the cave hanging in the sky. Su Mu doesn't know whether those are the world itself or outside the world. In fact, it is like the war that is bound to happen in the future. This era and the previous era have tried their best, but in the end it is just an experiment for the world to select the right path.
Among the billions of living beings, there are beings like Su Mu and Di Jun who are about to enter the unknown realm, but in the eyes of the world they are all pawns.
Although she was reluctant to admit it, Su Mu was following the world's script. This was not fate's arrangement. Fate could not control Su Mu, and neither could the world. But although the world could not control Su Mu, it could control the world, and the world would change the world according to Su Mu's ideas.
To say something shameless.
In fact, it was not Su Mu who was adapting to the world, but the whole world was adapting to Su Mu and complying with Su Mu. When Su Mu figured this out, he was shocked.
Of course, the world would not be like this for no reason. He certainly had his reasons. Perhaps he wanted to use Su Mu to peek into a higher path. He didn't know anything else.
"Let's go. If an enemy comes, we will fight him. If a flood comes, we will block it with earth."
Shenlong shrugged. He felt the same way. Although he had a bad premonition, with Su Mu around, things wouldn't be that bad. It was still the same joke as before. If Su Mu couldn't handle it, then the whole world would be over.
Soon they saw their destination from the air. They were shocked by what they saw.
"Oh, this resentment is so strong. How many people have died in this river?"
