"I'm ashamed. I'm really ashamed!" The old Taoist shook his head and said, "I can't see through this man's face. This is the first time I've encountered such a thing since I started practicing the Five Elements Divination."
Qin Haodong was shocked again. He was reborn in another body, which was equivalent to changing his fate. Naturally, he couldn't predict his future. However, the slovenly old Taoist could even see through this. From this point, he was different from those Jianghu swindlers.
Nalan Wuxia didn't know this. The old Taoist said that Qin Haodong's fate couldn't be predicted, which made her suspicious again. She couldn't help asking, "Are you a fortune-teller or not?"
The old Taoist priest regained his crazed expression and said, "Of course, I can predict the future of anyone except this benefactor."
Nalan Wuxia was confused about whether the fortune the old Taoist had just calculated for her was accurate or not. To verify it, she said, "I mean, can you predict a person's birth time?"
The old Taoist said, "Of course, but there's a fee. 200 yuan for each hexagram."
"If you can predict it accurately, I'll double the fee." Nalan Wuxia told him the birth time of the first victim. "I have a friend who was born at 11: 00 p.m. on December 5th, 34 years after the founding of the People's Republic. Can you help me predict his fate?"
The slovenly old Taoist closed his eyes slightly, and the five fingers of his left hand moved quickly. Then he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Nalan Wuxia, saying, "Officer, this man is dead."
As soon as he said this, Nalan Wuxia's heart suddenly jumped. The old Taoist could predict that the man was dead. Either the old Taoist was good at divination, or he had something to do with this case.
After thinking for a while, she felt that the former was more likely. If the old Taoist really had something to do with this murder, he wouldn't have revealed such a flaw. It seemed that the old Taoist's fortune-teller was not a bluff.
Thinking of this, she really took out four red hundred-yuan bills from her pocket and gave them to the slovenly old Taoist. The old Taoist immediately smiled when he saw the money. He happily took it and put it in his pocket.
"Since you've taken the money, you should complete the divination." The old Taoist priest continued, "This person has a Fire Fate, and there will be a great calamity in his life. It comes from the time of the Fire Sun in the year of Ding You, when the Fire Heart Flame absorbs the Five Elements. He should be hiding at home today, or at least away from places with the Fire Attribute.
If this person had met me earlier, I would have taught him how to avoid disasters. Unfortunately, he did not have this fate. As the saying goes, if the King of Hell wants him to die at midnight, no one dares to stay until midnight. This is his fate. "
The old Daoist priest's five fingers twitched a few more times as he said, "This person must have suffered quite a calamity. His limbs would have been mutilated after his death. With his fire-elemental Life Providence and the fact that he died on such a special day, it seems like his fire-elemental heart was damaged."
After he finished the calculation, Nalan Wuxia was stunned. The old Taoist was so powerful that he could calculate the situation of the deceased clearly.
Qin Haodong was also quite shocked. It seemed that the old Taoist was indeed a rare hermit master.
Seeing that the old Taoist was so accurate, Nalan Wuxia asked excitedly, "Taoist, can you figure out who the murderer is? As long as you can figure it out, I'll give you 10 times, no, 20 times the amount of divination money! "
The old Taoist looked at her and said, "Although I'm an ironclad fortune-teller, I'm not an immortal. How can I calculate so much? If you can know the murderer's birth date and eight characters, I can calculate for him. "
Nalan Wuxia looked disappointed. If she knew who the murderer was, she would have arrested him long ago. There would be no need for her to calculate.
At this time, she thought of the purpose of bringing the old Taoist to the interrogation room, so she turned to look at Qin Haodong.
Qin Haodong shook his head and said, "Let the Taoist go!"
Now it seemed that this case could not have been done by the scruffy old Taoist. In other words, even if it was done by the old Taoist, with his current cultivation, he did not dare to use the Mind-manipulating Skill on the old Taoist.
Although Nalan Wuxia did not know why Qin Haodong let the old Taoist leave without asking a word, she still did as he was told. She said to the old Taoist, "Taoist, sorry to disturb you today. Please go back."
Hearing that, the old Taoist immediately said to Qin Haodong with a smile, "Young man, you are good. I owe you a divination just now. Now I'll give you a hint. In fact, the answer you are looking for is in front of you, but you haven't found it. "
After saying that, the scruffy old Taoist laughed and left the interrogation room.
"The answer I am looking for is in front of me, but I haven't found it." Recalling the old Taoist's words, Qin Haodong had the same feeling again. It seemed that he had grasped the key to the problem, but he was just a little bit away.
Since the old Taoist said that he would give him a hint, he must have found something. What did he find?
Qin Haodong closed his eyes and replayed the scene after the old Taoist entered the door in his mind. Nalan Wuxia knew that he was thinking about something, so she did not disturb him, nor did she ask the police to bring in other old Taoists.
After entering the door, the old Taoist first calculated for Nalan Wuxia, which should have nothing to do with the case. Then he calculated for the dead man, which should be the problem.
He repeated the hexagram that the old Taoist had told him from beginning to end. It was the day that the deceased died. The deceased was a fire-born, and the heart that he had lost was the heart that represented the element of fire.
Thinking of this, he suddenly slapped his thigh. The dead man was in the Kitchen God Temple, which also represented the property of fire. This was definitely not a coincidence, but a careful plan by the murderer.
He also knew the Five Elements Algorithm, but he did not connect this case. It seemed that the answer the old Taoist said was in front of him, but he did not see it.
Then he took the information of the other three dead men and checked them again with the Five Elements Algorithm.
The second dead man had a life of water. He died in a boat on the lake. Naturally, he had a property of water. He died on the day of water in the Year of Ding You, and he lost his kidney, which represented the property of water.
The third dead man had a life of wood. He died in a park with a property of wood. He died on the day of wood in the Year of Ding You, and he lost his liver, which represented the property of wood.
The fourth dead man had a life of metal. He died in a hardware store with a property of metal. He died on the day of gold in the Year of Ding You, and he lost his lung, which represented the property of metal.
After summarizing all the information, Qin Haodong immediately understood that the murderer was obviously killing people according to the property of the five elements. This was definitely not a coincidence, but a careful plan.
Killing people, taking away the five organs that represented different properties, and at the same time taking away the souls of the dead man. What was the murderer trying to do?
At this time, he suddenly remembered that there used to be a kind of evil magic in the Cultivation World, which used the five organs of the dead man and the corresponding souls to make elixirs. The elixir was called the Five Elements of Soul-nourishing Elixir, which had an amazing effect. It could heal people's injuries instantly and help them break through the bottleneck of cultivation quickly. There was no doubt that the murderer wanted to make this elixir.
Seeing his expression, Nalan Wuxia asked, "Haodong, did you think of something?"
"The old Taoist was right. The answer is in front of me, but I didn't pay attention to it before."
Qin Haodong told her his speculation and finally said, "The murderer is killing people according to the law of the five elements, and his purpose is to make the Five Elements of Soul-nourishing Elixir.
"The time of killing is not three or two days apart, but according to the order of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. That is to say, the next crime will be committed on the Earth Day of Ding You."
Nalan Wuxia asked, "When is it?"
Qin Haodong counted with his fingers, and his expression suddenly changed. "The Earth Day is today, and the earth hour is two hours later."
"What? That is to say, the murderer will kill again in two hours? " Nalan Wuxia cried, "Haodong, we must find a way to stop him. If the murderer kills five people and doesn't commit crimes again, it will be difficult to solve this case."
"Don't worry. Let's analyze it now." Qin Haodong said, "Now we are very clear about the murderer's motive. It is to kill people and make elixirs.
"The time of the crime can be preliminarily determined. It will take place two hours later, which is between 21 and 23 o 'clock tonight.
"The location of the crime should be a place with a very strong earth element, but it is too wide to be sure.
"But we can start with the target. The murderer has now gathered the organs and souls of the four elements of metal, wood, water, and fire. The last one is the earth element, so the victim must be an earth element."
Nalan Wuxia said, "But there are so many people in Huaxia, and there are definitely many people with an earth element. How can we be sure?"
Qin Haodong said, "There are indeed many people with an earth element, but judging from the previous victims, the murderer has high requirements. He must be born on the Earth Day of Ding You. There are definitely not many people who meet this condition. If they have seen a doctor in Guangren Hospital, it will be easy to be sure.
Nalan Wuxia's eyes lit up. As long as they found the murderer's target, the case would be solved more than half.
She said to Qin Haodong, "Tell me when the Earth Day of Ding You are. I will ask the technical department to check the information immediately."
Qin Haodong took a pen and paper, wrote the date on the paper, and put it in front of her.
Nalan Wuxia took out her mobile phone and immediately dialed the number of the technical department. "Help me check the birth dates of these people immediately. The range is the medical information database of Guangren Hospital."
After several consecutive cases, the technical department had stored the medical information database of Guangren Hospital in electronic files. The speed of the inquiry was very fast. A few minutes later, the result of the inquiry was sent to Nalan Wuxia's mobile phone.
Nalan Wuxia glanced at the mobile phone and frowned slightly.
Qin Haodong asked, "What's wrong? Is there no one who meets the conditions? "
"There are two results. One died in a traffic accident the year before last, and the other emigrated overseas and officially settled in M Country. He hasn't returned to Huaxia for a long time."
Qin Haodong also frowned. In this way, there was no target for the murderer to commit the crime. Naturally, the case could not be solved.
Nalan Wuxia asked, "Haodong, since there is no suitable target, is it possible that the murderer will stop the crime tonight?"
Qin Haodong shook his head and said, "It's unlikely because the murderer has obtained four kinds of organs and can't store them for too long. He must find a suitable spleen as soon as possible. Otherwise, all his previous efforts will be in vain.
We can't just limit our attention to the medical personnel of Guangren Hospital. Since the murderer has started to commit the crime, he should have made a detailed plan before. Maybe he already has a suitable target in mind. This person may be his friend or someone he knows. "
Nalan Wuxia said anxiously, "What should we do? We have no direction at all now. "
At this moment, Qin Haodong's mobile phone rang. He glanced at it and found it was his aunt, Li Shulan.
"Aunt, what's the matter?"
"Haodong, today is your sister's birthday. She is in Jiangnan City. Help me buy her a gift."
"Yes, Aunt!" Qin Haodong
Qin Haodong suddenly asked, "Aunt, what time was my sister born?"
"She was born at 9 o 'clock in the evening …"
Qin Haodong's expression suddenly changed. Wang Rubing was born in an earthy year and earthy day. Coupled with this hour, it completely met the conditions of the murderer!
