Chapter 187 River God

The once elegant and refined Feng Si had become a middle-aged woman, with a rather plump figure.

His maid, Cuihua, had transformed into a seventy-year-old woman with a wrinkled face, but her eyes were bright and lively, and she spoke with her unique charming naivete.

But it was precisely because of this that it gave off an incongruous feeling. A thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl acting cute is adorable.

A twenty-three or twenty-four-year-old girl acting cute is youthful.

A woman in her thirties acting cute is sexy.

A woman in her forties is still…

But seventy years old…

No wonder Attorney An was laughing so happily; this scene was indeed too comical.

There were only two tents here, and it was afternoon. Attorney Zhou Ze An and Feng Si were sitting directly on the ground, without any restraint.

After sitting down, Zhou Ze realized something: did the local funeral home in Lijiang really not have a suitable corpse?

Or,

Was Feng Si doing it on purpose?

With Attorney An defecting first, Feng Si couldn't possibly imitate Attorney An's kneeling down to Zhou Ze and saying, "Your humble servant, Xiao Si, greets you";

Attorney An had been stripped of his official status, he was a convict, but Feng Si was a proper Yin Si (Underworld) Inspector.

Zhou Ze remembered when they were participating in the trial, everyone was waiting in line in front of the palace gate for Lord Judge to arrive, Cuihua directly pointed at everyone's noses and scolded them for being inconsiderate and trampling on the vegetables she planted!

Even the inspectors leading the team didn't say a word, which was enough to show that, at least in the inspector circle, Feng Si had a lot of influence; otherwise, his maid wouldn't be so arrogant.

Cuihua was a little silly and liked to recite Master's quotations, but Cuihua wasn't an idiot.

She should know who to say what to, and how to avoid causing trouble for her master.

But on the other hand, since Feng Si had agreed to Attorney An's request to help him set up that fog, it was clear that Feng Si had been paying attention to him for a long time.

With his former boss defecting to him first, and the meeting on the ghost jade matter, and having met in hell, and eating pickled cabbage noodles cooked by Cuihua herself.

At this point, you could say that Feng Si saw through everything, maybe not, but if he didn't see anything, it would be too insulting to his intelligence.

Therefore, he didn't dare to put on airs, using his identity as an inspector and the honor of being a special envoy from the Underworld to act big in front of Zhou Ze, the newly promoted constable. That was too stupid, and he wouldn't do that.

So,

Choosing such a temporary body for himself and Cuihua when coming here could directly solve the most troublesome problem.

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere became lively.

"An Ge (Brother An) has already told me about the matter, Mr. Zhou, what I want to ask now is your attitude. Are you determined to find that person?"

Zhou Ze nodded.

Feng Si nodded slightly, "Understood."

He only said these three words, he didn't say what he was going to do, or where to start the investigation, but presumably Attorney An had brought him here so enthusiastically because he knew the power of a genuine inspector.

Perhaps some things were difficult for Attorney An to do because he no longer had official status, but he knew what an inspector with official status could do, and that was enough.

"It will take a little time to find clues to that person. For now, isn't there something at the bottom of this river? Let's explore the bottom of the river and just pass the time."

After Feng Si finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Ze again,

"Mr. Zhou, what do you think?"

He was being very considerate,

A great inspector,

Repeatedly seeking the opinion of a constable at this time.

Attorney An watched this scene from the side, the smile on his face slowly fading.

In ancient palaces or wealthy families, if a woman became pregnant or had her period, she would often take the initiative to arrange for her sisters or the maids who came with her from her mother's family to serve her husband. This was a way to consolidate favor and prevent the benefits from flowing to outsiders.

But only the person involved could understand the bitterness in her heart.

"Okay."

Zhou Ze nodded and stood up.

Feng Si also stood up, his eyes meeting Attorney An's.

The river wasn't big, so there were no turbulent waves. Of course, Zhou Ze didn't see anything similar to the bloody scene in his dream.

"Since that person wants to lure you to the bottom, there should be his arrangement down there."

Saying that,

Feng Si looked at Yingying standing behind Zhou Ze,

And said:

"Go down and explore…"

"She's afraid of water."

Zhou Ze interrupted Feng Si.

It wasn't a tone of negotiation.

"…………" Yingying.

Feng Si nodded, his expression unreadable, and snapped his fingers.

"Master!"

The seventy-year-old Cuihua came over.

"Go down and take a look, and destroy it."

"Understood, Master."

Cuihua began to undress,

Everyone turned away.

If it were Cuihua at a normal age, everyone wouldn't be so coy about undressing, and turning away would seem more like a pretense.

But Cuihua was currently occupying the body of a seventy-year-old granny. It wasn't out of a deliberate sense of gender separation, but purely out of fear of being visually assaulted.

"Splash!"

Cuihua jumped into the water.

Feng Si stared at the water surface, without saying anything else.

Zhou Ze stood beside Feng Si, honestly, feeling a little tired.

Originally, everyone was familiar, so it was natural to be casual, but after this Feng Si came, although he had been very humble, there was still a kind of inherent barrier.

It was like having guests at home, you always had to be a little more disciplined to avoid the guests seeing your family's jokes.

Not long after,

Bubbles began to emerge continuously on the river surface,

Big bubbles one after another,

Rolling up and bursting, also giving off heat.

Feng Si opened his palm and took two steps towards the riverbank.

At this time,

Something floated up,

It was a leg,

Because it was upside down, only the foot and half of the calf were exposed above the water, a little like a synchronized swimming performance.

Zhou Ze's eyes narrowed,

Attorney An was also a little surprised,

Yingying covered her mouth,

Because this wasn't Cuihua's leg.

Some old perverts or foot fetishists could reach the level of recognizing people by their legs,

But that wasn't necessary at this time, because Cuihua was occupying the body of an old woman, and the legs of that age were easy to recognize.

What was floating up at this time was a smooth and fair leg, with a bell hanging on the ankle.

If Yingying had gone down, and this kind of change had happened, Zhou Ze definitely wouldn't be calm, but at this time, Feng Si stood there with his palm open, looking like nothing had happened.

Next,

A hand floated up,

After that, more legs,

Within five minutes,

The scene that appeared in Zhou Ze's dream was presented in reality.

On the river surface,

Full of broken limbs and wreckage.

Moreover, these broken limbs didn't look swollen at all. You should know that even if normal people soak in the bath for a long time, their skin will turn white, but many of these broken limbs looked very "fresh,"

Even fresher than the seafood counters in the supermarket.

Xu Qinglang walked over and grabbed an arm, like picking a lotus root from the river.

Old Xu carefully examined it like a chef selecting ingredients at a vegetable market,

Then he turned around and handed the arm to Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze kept his hands in his pockets, and didn't reach out to take the thing.

"Hehe, these broken limbs have been waterproofed and preserved, and the treatment is very delicate. Look at this incision, it's cut very smoothly, the lines are also very natural, the knife work is exquisite."

Xu Qinglang introduced.

"Then have you considered whether to braise or steam it?"

Seeing Old Xu so engrossed, Zhou Ze couldn't help but cooperate.

Xu Qinglang was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and said, "How can you eat something that's been preserved?"

Saying that,

Xu Qinglang threw the hand back into the river.

"Before you wash your hands, you're not allowed to cook... oh no, you don't have to cook today, let's order takeout."

Zhou Ze reminded.

Xu Qinglang nodded in agreement.

Until now,

Cuihua who went down hasn't come out yet.

Feng Si squatted down by the river,

Took out an incense stick, and stuck it on the riverbank. The fragrance burned, with wisps of smoke rising.

After another ten minutes passed,

The water surface changed again,

A scarlet color gushed out from below, instantly dyeing the river surface red, perfectly complementing the broken limbs and wreckage on the river surface.

At this moment,

A black figure emerged from the bottom of the water.

"Master!"

It was Cuihua.

Feng Si smiled slightly,

But Zhou Ze suddenly frowned at this time,

Because the blood had stained her, Cuihua seemed to have become a different person, and coupled with the scene in his dream.

Zhou Ze immediately looked at Feng Si, preparing to warn him.

But before Zhou Ze could open his mouth,

A leather whip appeared in Feng Si's hand,

And he fiercely lashed it at the river surface,

Lashing at the woman who had just called him Master.

The woman seemed to spit out a white light,

But it was scattered by the whip before it could fly far,

And the momentum of the whip didn't diminish,

And directly hit the woman's body.

"Buzz!"

"Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!"

Clusters of black gas rose up,

The entire river surface began to bubble and hiss like a pot of boiling water.

After Feng Si lashed out with the whip,

He pressed down with the other hand,

The half-burnt incense stick suddenly floated up.

"Yin and Yang are separated, humans and ghosts are apart, pardon!" (Yin Yang fen li, ren gui xiang li, she!)

Strands of white smoke spewed out rapidly, and the black shadows that had just emerged on the river surface were forcibly detained.

"Ghost Gate, open!" (Gui men kai!)

In front of Feng Si,

A black circle appeared,

Those black shadows that had been forcibly detained were directly thrown into this circle, that is, thrown into hell.

In an instant,

The originally restless and noisy river surface instantly returned to silence.

That woman seemed to be planning to burrow into the river surface,

Feng Si flicked his wrist,

The whip wrapped around and pulled,

The woman was first bound,

And then dragged to the shore.

After landing on the shore,

The woman's body quickly shrank, turning into an old turtle, but the old turtle's shell was covered with long black hair, covering its entire shell and dragging a long tail on its side.

"What is this thing?"

Xu Qinglang looked at Attorney An.

Attorney An glanced at Xu Niangniang (Miss Xu),

And said:

"Your close relative,

River God."
