Chapter 54: Bone Buddha's Back-up Plan, Meeting with Yu Zheng
"The evil Buddha is dead..."
"He was fine yesterday, but this morning the jailer discovered he was motionless while conducting his rounds..."
There was a hint of depression in Wang Yucheng's tone.
Although Chu He already knew about this, when Wang Yucheng mentioned it.
He still pretended to be surprised.
"The evil Buddha is dead?"
"Then, sir, do you have any doubts?"
Wang, the prison warden, shook his head and said, "When the jailer reported it, I personally went over to investigate."
"Just like a normal person dying of old age, I can't find any signs of injury on his body or inside his body..."
This is what makes Wang Yucheng most depressed.
He has decades of experience as a prison guard and needs to check whether a prisoner has been abused or punished.
Was it homicide?
He could see it almost at a glance.
"Could it be that he really died of old age?"
Wang Yucheng felt that he was possessed by evil spirits, which was why he had such thoughts.
It was clear that when he saw this person yesterday, he was still full of energy.
How is it possible that a person would grow old and die overnight?
But the speaker may not mean it, but the listener takes it to heart.
After Chu He heard Wang Yucheng say that the evil Buddha died of old age, he recalled the evil Buddha's memory and the "Ten Thousand Bones Rebirth Sutra".
"Whether he died of old age or not, I'll know once I examine his bones."
Chu He thought of this.
He said to Wang Yucheng, "Sir, I have read some books related to the Bone Buddha lineage before. Could you please let me go over and check them out again?"
"I am willing to try again for you, sir, to see if I can find something on the corpse of the evil Buddha."
When Wang Yucheng heard Chu He's words.
Without saying a word, he took out a spiritual iron key from the drawer and threw it to Chu He.
"Hurry up and go. If you are any later, I will have to report the situation to the prison warden."
Chu He took the key, nodded, and turned to leave.
……
The morgue is on the west side of the first floor of the inner prison, next to the crematorium.
It is more than twenty miles from Prison Chief Wang’s office to the morgue.
Half a cup of tea.
Chu He came to the morgue.
"Master Chu Prison Envoy, I wonder what you are here for?"
"Is there anything I can help you with?"
The person guarding the door of the morgue was a ninth-rank early-stage jailer. Although he was thin and dark, he was very perceptive.
He saw Chu He coming from afar, and before Chu He reached the door, he walked over and greeted him.
"Where is the body of the evil Buddha? Take me there."
Chu He took out the spiritual iron key in his hand.
This is the key to the morgue.
There are three keys of this kind on each floor, one each for the warden, the warden, and the morgue.
Normally, if the prison needs to come and check the body, it needs the approval of the warden.
That means you have to bring the key with you.
Last month, a new prison guard made a fool of himself because of this matter, and Chu He only then learned that there were such tricks involved.
"Yes, yes. I will take the prison warden there right away." The dark-skinned man replied quickly.
"My lord, please come this way."
It won't take a while.
The dark-skinned man brought Chu He into a cold room, where there were dozens of wooden tables as long as a person, some covered with white cloth and some not.
Chu He discovered that next to the wooden table covered with white cloth, there was a piece of white paper with the prisoner's information written on it.
"Okay, you go down first." Chu He took out ten taels of silver and threw it over.
The dark-skinned man took the silver with a look of joy and thanked him quickly, "Thank you, sir. I'll be right out."
The dark-skinned man weighed the silver in his hand and found that there were definitely ten taels of silver.
"That's equivalent to my monthly salary..."
"This Chu Prison Envoy is truly generous."
The dark-skinned man almost jumped out.
As for what Chu He is busy with in there, it’s fine as long as Chu He doesn’t steal the corpse.
Chu He came to the evil Buddha's corpse and lifted the white cloth covering it.
The Evil Buddha's corpse was pale, and the membrane on his body seemed very elastic. Chu He's spiritual sense could detect liquid flowing inside.
Then, Chu He reached out and pressed the corpse.
"Soft and boneless?"
"Sure enough, the Bone Buddha is on the first floor of Purgatory, and there are other chess pieces..."
As soon as Chu He touched the body of the evil Buddha, he understood why the evil Buddha died suddenly.
Moreover, Chu He knew that the evil Buddha's corpse would soon turn into a pool of blood.
"The Bone Buddha probably knew that his incarnation's deepest secrets were about to be dug out, and thus initiated self-destruction."
"Even my own thoughts are destroyed."
"I have to say, this Bone Buddha is truly a ruthless person..."
According to Chu He's memory, the Bone Buddha had been cultivated for more than twenty years before it became the Evil Buddha it is today.
"How can I explain this matter clearly to Wang Yucheng?"
"Also, could Wang Yucheng be the undercover agent?"
"Logically speaking, the evil Buddha has been imprisoned on the first floor of the inner prison, so he is the most likely suspect..."
“But it could also be the smallest!”
Chu He was secretly pondering the whole thing in his heart.
He was trying to get to the bottom of the problem.
"Have it!"
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Chu He's mind.
He figured out how to turn this into a good thing.
Afterwards, Chu He covered the room with the white cloth. Now that he knew the problem, there was no point in staying here any longer.
When they reached the door, Chu He warned the dark-skinned man standing beside him, "Young man, keep an eye on this door. There's something strange about the corpse inside. I suspect something big might happen."
"After I leave, don't let anyone in again. Everything will be arranged."
"This prison envoy will go back and ask Lord Wang, the prison warden, to come over!"
The dark-skinned man saw that Chu He's expression was serious and did not seem fake.
His expression also became solemn, and he nodded and said, "Please rest assured, sir. I will definitely protect this place..."
"Okay..." Chu He also nodded at him.
Then he turned around and quickly disappeared.
……
"My lord, this is what happened."
Wang Yucheng frowned and thought for a long time before he slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your guess is correct..."
"Now that you mentioned the Bone Buddha, I remember it."
Wang Yucheng could no longer sit still.
After all, if the internal traitor is not eliminated, his life will be in danger.
"Let's go and see Lord Yu Zheng."
"Your plan can only be carried out with the approval of Lord Yuzheng!"
After a while.
The two disappeared into the office.
Ye Yixiao's office is on the fourth floor of the inner prison.
Chu He and the other person walked for half an hour before they arrived at the door of Ye Yixiao's office.
Wang Yucheng took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, walked forward, knocked on the door, and said in a bowed voice:
"Master Yuzheng, Wang Baichuan has something important to report."
crunch--
After a while, the door slowly opened.
Wang Yucheng winked at Chu He, and the two of them walked in one after the other.
Chu He fell half a body behind, went in, and closed the door.
The cautious actions of the two people surprised Ye Yixiao, who was correcting documents.
Afterwards, Ye Yixiao put down the pen in his hand and said in a deep voice, "Tell me, what's going on again?"
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Wang Yucheng's eyes.
He was always a little embarrassed to be criticized by his boss in front of his subordinates.
"Master Yu Zheng, this is what happened..."
Wang Yucheng then told Chu He everything about the sudden death of the evil Buddha and what he had discovered.
After Ye Yixiao listened.
He even put down the document in his hand, looked at the two of them seriously, and asked, "Are you serious?"
Chu He and the other man nodded quickly.
Although it was their guess.
But after Chu He and Wang Yucheng had a talk with the two of them, they thought that the matter was almost certain.
“This matter is indeed of great importance…”
"The Monster Refining Division is already prepared to refine the Bone Buddha..."
"Now such a mistake has occurred. Fortunately, you have remedied it and discovered it in time."
When Ye Yixiao said this, the majesty on his face eased a little.
He glanced at the two of them, his gaze finally resting on Chu He, and then said:
"Chu Prison Envoy, your strategy is to use the evil Buddha's resurrection as a pretext to defraud the thief. This is a very good method..."
"But I have a better way!"
