The results of the investigation shocked and angered the four of them.
The old man and the young man were obviously the two villagers of this village. They were obviously killed.
And the following investigation made them even more shocked and annoyed.
There were more than 30 families in the village, and 93 people were all killed and turned into monsters. Although they were still alive, they were no longer human.
"What should we do? There are more than 100 people in the village. Do we have to kill them all?" Ye Hanqiu asked.
"Of course," Lin Fan said.
"They are no longer human. They will only be a scourge if we keep them."
"I can't do it." Ye Hanqiu frowned.
Lei Jun also frowned. This guy had been with Lin Fan for a long time and was not as cold-blooded as before.
"It doesn't matter. I will be the bad guy. You all wait outside the village. Don't let them out," Lin Fan said.
Gong Ziyu said, "How can we let you do it yourself? Let your subordinates do it."
"The fewer people who know about this, the better, so as to avoid unnecessary panic." Lin Fan gave such a reason and went alone to collect corpse energy from each house.
In fact, the other three could also see some clues about Lin Fan's abnormality, but they did not say anything at this time.
In the end, the 93 people in the village died after Lin Fan extracted their corpse energy. Lin Fan got a total of 2,790 corpse energy points. After doing this, Lin Fan asked his subordinates to enter the village and bury the bodies to prevent the outbreak of the plague.
Ge Village, because of the delay on the road, returned to the bureau in the evening.
After analyzing the case, Lin Fan made arrangements. First, he ordered Xia Qiusheng and other people from the Internal Affairs Department to prepare food for everyone.
Then he said to the other three, "This is a serious case. Don't sleep tonight. We will split into two groups. Lei Jun and I will take 100 people to investigate the other three villages. Gong Ziyu, you and Ye Hanqiu will take 100 people to patrol the area where the case happened to prevent it from happening again …"
Lei Jun had no objection to this arrangement, and Ye Hanqiu also acquiesced.
Only Gong Ziyu expressed his dissatisfaction. He rolled his eyes at Ye Hanqiu and said, "I don't want to work with a blockhead."
Ye Hanqiu crossed his arms and snorted. "Well, I don't like to act with women either. It's too troublesome."
Gong Ziyu said, "Governor, I'll be with you. Let the big guy be with the wooden man. A fool and a wooden man are a perfect match."
His words offended the two men. Lei Jun and Ye Hanqiu both stared at Gong Ziyu.
"I really have to hand it to you guys. You don't even know when to joke. Our Qingzhou's Jingye Bureau has only been established for less than two months, and the Spring Festival is coming soon. If such a big case can't be solved smoothly, then everyone can forget about staying in Qingzhou in the future.
Also, as long as this case is not solved and the culprit is not caught, it will always threaten the citizens of Qing Zhou. Every day, one or two villages might be harmed. Do you have the heart to watch those citizens be harmed … "
With one sentence, the three of them stopped talking. Their faces were full of shame, and then they acted according to Lin Fan's arrangement.
Gong Ziyu and Ye Hanqiu took 100 people to patrol, and Lin Fan and Lei Jun went to the three villages where the crime happened to investigate.
The results of the investigation were the same as the Wang Family Village. The men, women, and children in the village were all killed. Their bodies were injected with 30 high-quality corpse auras, and they were refined into monsters full of vitality.
After Lin Fan extracted the corpse auras from their bodies, he ordered the soldiers below to bury their bodies and let them rest in peace.
Although he guessed that the three of them could roughly see his abnormality, Lin Fan still didn't want them to see too clearly, so he arranged Lei Jun and himself to be in the same team. When extracting the corpse auras, he didn't let Lei Jun follow.
Except for the missing Ge Family Village, there were a total of 612 people in the four villages where the crime happened. Lin Fan obtained a total of 18360 corpse auras.
Over the past month, Lin Fan finally collected a large number of points. However, the origin of these points was not from killing ghosts, but from the loss of more than 600 lives, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
612 lives, plus about 700 to 800 lives in Ge Family Village, made him feel heartache, ashamed, and angry.
If this case wasn't solved, he vowed not to be a human.
This was Lin Fan's vow.
At dawn, the two teams returned one after another, and the four higher-ups came to the bureau's lobby to report the situation. Gong Ziyu and Ye Hanqiu's team didn't find anything after a night of patrol.
Lin Fan was busy collecting corpse auras and didn't patrol, so he didn't find anything.
Fortunately, they didn't hear of any new cases that day, but Lin Fan felt that they couldn't let down their guard. He told everyone to rest during the day and continue the investigation at night.
If the case wasn't solved, no one could go home for the New Year.
Lin Fan didn't go home either, but stayed in the bureau.
As the Governor, he had his own place and residence in the bureau. His living conditions weren't worse than at home, and he had female attendants to serve him. It was even more comfortable than at home.
After washing up and eating, he returned to his room and opened the panel to prepare to improve his cultivation.
The panel showed.
Qi and Blood: 6353
Cultivation Method: Qi Disciple Level 2 (+) Blood Demon Art (Perfection) Zishu Art (Perfection) Burning Blood Technique (+)
Martial Skills: Blood Collapsing Fist (Perfection), Eighteen Berserk Blood Blades (Perfection), Cloud Steps (+), Blood Shadow Steps (Perfection), Barbaric Bull's Strength (Perfection), Black Tiger Fist (Entry) (+), Thunderclap Palm (Perfection)
Ghost Art: Yin Wind Palm (+) Ghost Shadow Step (+)
Magic: Fire Snake Art (Perfection)
Corpse Aura: 18360
Yin Aura: 151
Demon Aura: 76
…
In the past month, his cultivation methods, martial techniques, and spells hadn't improved, but he had accumulated very little Yin Aura and Corpse Aura points.
The points he gained for Yin and Demon Aura in a month weren't as much as the Corpse Aura he collected in a day. In terms of points, Lin Fan really couldn't get rich if he didn't kill ghosts.
He stared at the plus sign for Qi Disciple Level 2. It showed that if he converted 6000 Qi and Blood points to Qi Disciple, he could upgrade his cultivation method to Level 3.
6000 Qi!
Lin Fan was stunned, and he felt bitter inside.
The cost of upgrading this Qi Disciple cultivation method was so high.
Moreover, every time he upgraded it, the number of points required would increase exponentially.
He did not level it up. Instead, he stared at the plus sign behind the Inferno Blood Technique. Immediately, the words appeared. 'Convert your current 3000 points of Vitality to the Inferno Blood Technique. This technique can be upgraded to the first level, Blood Aura Mist.'
It turned out that Burning Blood Technique was divided into five levels:
Level 1 of Burning Blood Technique, Blood Aura Mist. At this level, the Blood Aura in his body could be as dense as smoke.
Level 2 of Burning Blood Technique, Blood Aura Boil. At this level, the Blood Aura in his body would boil like boiling water.
Level 3 of Burning Blood Technique, Blood Aura Soldiers.
At this level, the Blood Aura in his body could condense into divine weapons to kill people.
Level 4 of Burning Blood Technique, Blood Aura Rainbow. At this level, the Blood Aura in his body would be as vast as a rainbow, and his strength could topple mountains and overturn seas.
Level 5 of Burning Blood Technique, Blood Aura Burns the Heavens.
At this level, the Blood Aura in his body could burn, burning the heavens and boiling the seas.
Literally, it seemed that the beginning of this cultivation method was very ordinary, and its power gradually increased with each level. When one cultivated to the last level, the blood and Qi in one's body could actually turn into a fire that could burn the heavens. This was too exaggerated.
What Lin Fan was thinking now was how many Qi points he would need to upgrade this method to the last level.
