The Terror of the Heavens Begins with Gu

Chapter 70: Seven Ghost Chasers
After bringing the person into the room where the body was placed, Li Zhen turned around and asked, "Where is this place?"

The middle-aged man shuddered, realizing he could move his mouth, and quickly replied, "Sir, this is Ma Xiangping! This is Master Miao's territory!"

"If you want to make money, my great master has plenty of it. As long as you have the ability, our great master is willing to give you a large sum of money..."

"My great-grandfather also knew a wizard like you. That wizard lived in a Taoist temple ten miles away. That Taoist temple was donated by my great-grandfather. Maybe you know him..."

Li Zhen looked quietly at the middle-aged man with a crooked mouth.

Under the suppression of the invisible aura, the middle-aged man felt his heartbeat faster and faster, and gradually closed his mouth.

Master Miao...

Ma Xiangping...

It seems a little familiar.

Li Zhen looked at the corpse and asked, "Did you kill her?"

The middle-aged man's expression changed, and he asked tentatively, "What is the relationship between this gentleman and that woman?"

Li Zhen didn't turn around: "One more word of nonsense and you'll be dead."

As if something was strangling his throat, the man with the crooked mouth gradually tilted his head upwards, his eyes rolled back, and his face became redder and redder.

After being suddenly relaxed, he fell softly to the ground and gasped violently for a long time before he recovered.

After catching his breath a little, the man with the crooked mouth said in fear, "I dare not hide it... hide it, sir, this woman is a singer."

"My great-grandfather's younger brother... fell in love with this woman during my great-grandfather's birthday, and accidentally...accidentally killed her."

"Who knew this woman was so fragile? She died in just one blow... one blow..."

This story is very strange.

Li Zhen thought for a moment but couldn't think of which horror movie this fit into.

"You didn't lie to me?"

"No, no! I guarantee it! My life is in your hands, how dare I lie to you?"

"You only killed one person?"

"Only one person, and... later, our great grandfather's younger brother also... died."

"How did you die?"

"My grandfather's younger brother was a womanizer, always flirting with women and living a life of debauchery. He was already suffering from... leprosy, and later blamed himself for having killed a woman, so he died too, and followed her."

Li Zhen turned to look at the man with the crooked mouth and asked, "Where is the body of your great-grandfather's brother?"

"We found someone...we found someone to carry the body away. Leprosy is not an ordinary disease. It's a family disgrace...a family disgrace that shouldn't be aired publicly. The old man had no choice but to find someone to...quietly carry the body away."

"Who are you looking for?"

"Two outsiders who drove corpses."

"What kind of Taoist?"

"One is fat with a mustache, the other is short and thin, and stupid..."

"Where are they?"

"It's inside the charity cemetery."

"Do you know when they're going to leave?"

"They... they will leave tonight. The mage in the Taoist temple is very powerful and might know the master. They are all in the same profession... The master can..."

"Where is the charity cemetery?" "Go out the door, turn left, then go out a small door, and keep going. When you see a gloomy house, that's the charity cemetery."

"Since the woman is already dead, why did you leave the body in the room?"

The man with the crooked mouth swallowed his saliva and said, "My grandfather felt that his brother did something... something wrong, so he temporarily... temporarily placed the body here and planned to find a good feng shui site to bury her."

Li Zhen suddenly asked, "Do you think I'm easy to fool?"

Hearing this, the crooked-mouthed man shuddered and shouted, "God is my witness, how dare I lie to you?! If I do, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"

Li Zhen smiled and said, "You think I'm an outsider and easy to fool, so you use the same tricks you used to trick the corpse-driving Taoist priest to trick me? Was the woman in that scene killed by the so-called Old Master Miao's brother, or by Old Master Miao?"

The man with the crooked mouth froze in thought: "Uh... uh, misunderstanding, misunderstanding..."

His words stopped abruptly.

A pale little hand pierced through the man's chest from behind, leaving a large, transparent hole.

A large amount of blood instantly dyed the man's clothes bright red.

The man with a crooked mouth, a look of astonishment on his face, fell forward.

Turning to look at the woman's body, Li Zhen sighed.

When he heard about the two corpse-driving Taoist priests, he realized that this was the world of the old horror movie "The Seven Ghost Chasers".

He didn't react at first because the middle-aged man with a crooked mouth misled him, otherwise he would have figured out where this place was.

Li Zhen was very impressed by the general plot of the movie.

The plot of this drama is not complicated.

Seven people, headed by the nicknamed platoon leader, disguised themselves as corpse-driving Taoist priests, using the transportation of corpses as a cover, but in fact they were engaged in the business of trafficking duck slices.

When passing through Maxiangping, the local master Miao used threats and inducements to force them to transport a corpse out of the town in order to cover up his crime of murder.

The people killed by Mr. Miao were the singing woman and her husband.

The story was similar to what the middle-aged man just said, except that the protagonist was Mr. Miao, not the so-called Mr. Miao's younger brother.

The killing process was not an accidental killing.

In order to force the singing woman to submit, Mr. Miao threatened the woman with her husband. While asking the woman to take off her clothes, he pressed the woman's husband's head into the fish tank.

Before the woman could even take off her clothes, her husband was drowned alive in the fish tank by Master Miao.

How could a woman not feel resentful when she watched her husband drown in extreme humiliation?

While transporting the body, the platoon leader and others accidentally dropped it into a sulfur swamp.

Due to the heavy resentment and the influence of the sulfur swamp, the corpse turned into a vampire-like zombie and crawled out of the sulfur pool.

Even after the woman's husband turned into a zombie, he was still a man of affection and loyalty. Apart from seeking revenge, he did not kill innocent people. At first, he only sucked the blood of various livestock.

The first person it killed was one of the seven duck slice smugglers who pretended to be a corpse.

The man was greedy and unscrupulous, so he secretly stole someone else's token of love from the corpse, thinking that no one knew.

In the end, Old Master Miao and others took advantage of the weakness of the woman's husband who had turned into a zombie, used the woman's corpse as bait, lured the vampire zombie into a trap, and blew the zombie to pieces with explosives.

Recalling the plot, Li Zhen realized that the middle-aged man with an accent and a crooked mouth whom he bumped into was Master Miao's housekeeper, a ghost-like character.

This person was present every time Old Master Miao did something evil, including killing the singer and her husband.

Li Zhen dipped his right index finger in a little of the man's warm heart blood on the ground, and drew a strange rune on the corresponding positions of his limbs.
