Chapter 2 second quarter

Wangyue Pavilion lives up to its name, occupying an excellent location in Mingyue Pavilion, with two beautifully carved yellow pear wood windows half-opened, facing the sparkling clear water of West Lake and the half-curved cold moon. The manager led the two of them into the room, bowed, and stepped out gently.As soon as Tan Tianfang sat down, he stared at Su Yu with bated breath, and asked word by word: "Young man, have you been suffering from headaches, nausea, and not wanting to eat or sleep since yesterday? Your mind is messed up and always remembering some painful and scary things!"

Su Yu sighed softly and said, "Yes, master, this situation started to appear at noon yesterday. At first I thought it was because I was tired, but at night, it became more and more serious, so that I almost stayed up all night last night. When I looked in the mirror this morning, I realized that I felt like I had a serious illness! Throughout the wedding, I could feel that this strange illness on my body was getting worse and worse!" Tan Tianfang twirled the Buddhist beads on his chest with his fingers, and said in a deep voice: "This situation will get worse and worse. You should already have weakness in your hands and feet, dry mouth, and a fire burning in your body. From time to time, there will be some hallucinations. Today is the fifteenth day. If it is late at night when the moon is full, that is, the moment when the yin is the heaviest in this month, even more terrifying changes will appear on your body! Do you know what all this is? reason?"

Su Yu's face was already pale, but at this moment, two blobs of redness appeared on his cheeks, he opened his eyes wide, and there was a scorching light in them, and asked: "Master, did I fall into a very evil Gu technique? " Tan Tianfang stared at him for a moment, then slowly said: "Young man, I can see that you are a person with extremely high comprehension and strong concentration! Your enemy will not hesitate to use the blood and poisonous insects of a top martial arts master in order to trick you. They mixed together to make the most evil voodoo in Thailand, blood curse voodoo! The person who can perform this kind of voodoo must be a master, and he must hate you, not only want to kill you, but also want to torture you You! He wants to use your hands to kill your lover, relatives, and friends, and make you fall into endless pain!"

Su Yu turned his head and stared at the mountains and lakes in the shadow of the sound of oars and lights, and murmured: "Blood Curse Gu! It is said that this kind of Gu cannot be broken. People who suffer from this Gu will go crazy when the moon is full and kill People around him, and then pierce his chest, let his blood flow out to death! However, in order to inflict the blood curse on people, the poisoner must make the person who wants to harm touch the blood Prepared venom. However, I have not been in contact with strangers these days, how did this person make me come into contact with this venom?"

As he spoke, he suddenly seemed to remember something and paused. "Why, do you already know how to get poisoned by the Gu poison? Come on, as long as you can find the item that poisoned you, maybe you can be saved!" Tan Tianfang asked eagerly. Su Yu thought for a moment, then took out the blue envelope from his pocket and handed it to Tan Tianfang: "But, master, Ouyang Shuo also came into contact with this. Could it be that he was also poisoned by Gu poison, but hasn't had an attack yet?" Tan Tianfang took the envelope carefully, unfolded it, looked at it, and sniffed it close, and said: "The poisonous juice is applied to the surface of this envelope. When your hands touch the envelope, the poison will pass through. The skin pores on your fingers have entered your internal organs, and finally eroded your brain. However, other people who have also touched this envelope will definitely not be poisoned, because..." Tan Tianfang said, wrinkling slightly Frowning, he continued, "Because, this poison is specially designed for you. You see, the two words on the envelope are in ancient Siamese. When translated, they should be your name: Su Yu! This It is equivalent to the spell issued by the other party, and this poisonous spell is only effective for you!"

Su Yu smiled bitterly, and said slowly: "It turns out that this envelope is just a bait, and the fish the other party wants to catch is me! He sent it to me directly, fearing that I would be on guard, so he forwarded it to Ouyang Shuo, because He expected that Ouyang would come and hand it to me after receiving this letter, he really has malicious intentions! Master, in your opinion, do I have no cure and can only sit and wait to die?" Tan Tianfang stroked his beard and said, "Hatred, hatred is really the most incredible emotion in the world. When all emotions have been forgotten, people's hearts are still dominated by hatred! It seems that the person who cast the blood curse is really I hate you so much! However, I am not completely desperate! In fact, I have been working on researching various poisons, hoping to save innocent people. Recently, I have developed a kind of elixir." He said, He took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket, uncorked the bottle, poured out a purple pill, held it in the palm of his hand, and handed it to Su Yu!

"I call this elixir Wangyou Pill. It can remove many kinds of Gu poison. However, the blood curse Gu is extremely poisonous. I'm not 100% sure whether it can be removed. Su Yu, are you willing to give it a try? Needless to say, if you succeed, if you fail, it may cause your Gu poison to attack earlier and stronger! Are you afraid?" Su Yu stared at the small pill for a moment, reached out to take it, and grinned: "Since you know that the worst outcome is death! What else is there to be afraid of? How about taking a gamble, maybe there will still be life!" "Okay! Very good, you have courage!" Tan Tianfang patted Su Yu's shoulder excitedly, but then frowned again, showing a bit of embarrassment and said: "But, but. Before you take this Wangyou Pill, I have to do one more thing!"

Su Yu said softly: "Master, I understand, you must do this to prevent accidents." Tan Tianfang said in amazement: "You, you guessed that I would seal your acupoints with internal force?" Su Yu nodded: "Since I don't know what the result will be after taking this Wangyou pill, of course I must prevent me from going crazy and killing people after taking the medicine. The master once mentioned in the preface of the book "Strange Phenomena in China" that you Isn’t acupuncture the best in martial arts? So I guess you want to seal my acupuncture points with internal force.”

"Su Yu is indeed an extremely clever detective! Needless to say, it is only a few hours away from the full moon. Let's do it now! Let me use my fingers first." Tan Tianfang After speaking, he turned to face the night sky outside the window, raised his right index finger, closed his eyes slightly, and concentrated on starting to exercise. Su Yu silently looked at the old man with a dignified expression.Although his life has always been inseparable from all kinds of adventures, such weird and dangerous situations like today are rare. After a cup of tea, Tan Tianfang restrained his breath, walked over, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'm ready!" His eyes were shining, and it could be seen that his whole body was full of true energy.

Su Yu nodded, raised his neck without hesitation, swallowed the Wangyou Pill in his palm, then slowly opened his eyes, and said with a sigh of relief: "Master, you can do it!" Tan Tianfang stared at his face for a moment, his eyes suddenly became very strange, and there was a flash of excitement.He said slowly: "Okay, very good! Su Yu, I promise you won't regret taking my Wangyou Pill!" As he said that, Tan Tianfang suddenly stretched out his right hand and poked Su Yu's chest forcefully, causing Su Yu's body to shake slightly. "Su Yu, I have tapped your Xinkou acupoint now, and you will feel that the flow of blood in your whole body has slowed down. In other words, within three hours, when the moon is full at ten o'clock, you can only sit where you are, not You can't move your body and you can't talk. But you can hear and see everything that happens. Do you understand?"

Su Yu blinked slightly, indicating that he had heard it. Tan Tianfang took a chair, sat down face to face with Su Yu, smiled and said slowly: "Su Yu, it seems that we have nothing to do these few hours, we can only wait and see if you eat it. Can the Wangyou Pill from you get rid of the Gu poison you have been poisoned by!" Su Yu nodded vigorously.His eyes were clearly full of trust and hope. Tan Tianfang looked at him, his smile suddenly became a little weird, and he continued to speak slowly: "Su Yu, you are a very smart person, do you know what is the most painful thing in life?" In fact, he knew that Su Yu couldn't answer at this moment, so after a moment's pause, he continued softly: "The most painful thing in life is to see the person you love the most die in front of your own eyes, but you can't do anything." ! You can't save her!" Although Tan Tianfang spoke every word very lightly and slowly, it seemed that dozens of needles were stabbing Su Yu at the same time, and the muscles on Su Yu's face began to convulse slightly. Looking at Su Yu's appearance, Tan Tianfang pulled the chair closer, almost touching Su Yu's ear, and said leisurely: "Actually, the more painful thing is that the person I love the most died on my own. In my hands! Three years ago, I found out that my son was taking drugs, and I accidentally killed him. At that time, I was so painful that I almost died, and I was unwilling to bury him anyway. I kept him in the ice room of the villa, so that I can see him all the time. Maybe God has mercy on me. A few years ago, I met a man with magical powers. I willingly joined his secret organization, just to ask him to help me save me. Son! And today, the leader arranged for me to come to Hangzhou to make you—Su Yu, the detective—completely insane, and then use your hands to create a shocking murder. Actually, I don’t want to harm you, we have nothing to do No hatred, you are such a smart young man, I admire you very much when I see you. But, I can't help it, for my son, I can only do this." As he spoke, he sighed deeply, and looked at Su Yu with compassion in his eyes. Although Su Yu couldn't speak at this time, the fear and anger in his eyes became more and more intense. Tan Tianfang's words just now were too shocking!It turned out that he actually killed Aizi with his own hands and hid the body for three years.But what surprised Su Yu the most was the master Tan Tianfang said could save his son! Reviving the dead has been the most unattainable and absurd dream in people's hearts for thousands of years!Is there really someone in the world who possesses this kind of magical ability?And this person took such painstaking efforts just to make Su Yu go crazy and kill someone?Could it be that he and Su Yu have an unresolvable hatred? Tangled questions flitted through Su Yu's mind, but he might never have the chance to ask, because his face suddenly became dark and his lips began to tremble slightly.Although his acupuncture points were sealed and he couldn't move, it could be seen that he was trembling unconsciously. Tan Tianfang smiled darkly: "Su Yu, with your intelligence, you probably already figured it out? In fact, the Wangyou Pill you took just now is the real Gu poison! And that empty envelope is just a pill. It’s just an introduction! The wisdom of the leader is invincible. He knows that it is very difficult to succeed in directly poisoning you, because you are extremely cautious and never touch things of unknown origin. However, the blue You must check the envelope carefully. The envelope was soaked in poisonous toad juice and dried in the sun, and then sealed in a plastic bag. Once in contact with the air, the poisonous juice will slowly seep out. The owner has calculated the time , almost an hour later, when Ouyang Shuo hurriedly handed the envelope to you, it was also the time when the venom had completely seeped out. However, the venom entering the body from your fingers is limited after all, and it can only make you in a trance for a day. Physical fatigue does not really make you crazy. That's why the master sent me to deliver this real blood curse poison, because I am an old friend of Professor Ouyang, and my identity cannot be doubted. Especially when a person's thinking is the most chaotic, the will When you are the weakest and have the worst judgment, when you see this last straw, why don’t you try to grab it? Sure enough, even Su Yu, who is extremely smart, can’t escape this weakness of human nature. You immediately believed me , and took the Wangyou Pill without any doubt! Su Yu, the poison in you is about to explode, and you will feel as if your whole body is being burned by a raging fire, and the heat is unbearable. The evil desire of thinking will spew out uncontrollably, and you will completely become a lunatic, a lunatic who kills without batting an eye!" Tan Tianfang's words were like a curse, and Su Yu's body trembled more and more, her complexion was terribly pale, and she bit her lip desperately, as if she was experiencing some kind of severe torture in her body.Suddenly, he fell off the chair, holding his head, curled up into a ball, panting heavily. Tan Tianfang suddenly squatted down, took out a dagger from his pocket and stuffed it in Su Yu's hand, and whispered in his ear: "Wait a while, your head won't hurt anymore, but at that time you You are a complete lunatic! But no one can tell from the surface. You will kill your best friend Ouyang Shuo with your own hands and turn this wedding banquet into a funeral banquet. In the end, you will be arrested by the police Kill him or commit suicide! Soon, soon, in another half an hour, a major case that will shock the whole country will happen here! And who would have guessed that the murderer is the former detective Su Yu!" As he spoke, he sighed softly, stood up and smiled, and looked at this man who was constantly struggling in pain with slightly compassionate eyes. After watching for a while, Tan Tianfang raised his wrist and looked at his watch, feeling that the time was almost up.He left Su Yu who was already in a half-crazy state on the ground, turned around and walked out of Wangyue Pavilion. When he went out, he didn't forget to turn the door lock a few times to lock it, and took off the key from the lock.In this way, unless someone opened the door with a key from the outside, Su Yu inside would not even think about running out by himself. "Waiter!" Tan Tianfang beckoned, and called a waitress who was standing at the corner of the stairs, handed the key to this honest-looking girl, and said with a serious expression, "Go and tell the person who is holding the wedding banquet downstairs." The Ouyang family must have quietly told the groom himself that his good friend Su Yu invited him to come up alone, and that he had something very confidential to discuss with him. Remember, Mr. Su said that only he could come up alone and no one else was allowed. Follow. Mr. Su is doing very important things inside right now and cannot be disturbed. When the groom comes up with you, give him the key and ask him to open the door of Moon-watching Pavilion by himself." The waitress took the key respectfully, turned around and went downstairs with a promise. After finishing all this, Tan Tianfang unconsciously touched the Buddhist beads on his chest again, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.For today's scene, he has already opened the curtain and arranged the plot. The next step is to wait and see how it changes.Thinking, he took a few steps to the corner of the stairs, pushed open the window, lightly twisted the watch on his right hand, a thin silver thread flew out of the watch case soundlessly, and Tan Tianfang's body Fly out with the silver thread.He twisted lightly in mid-air, fluttering and attached to the black tile eaves, like a huge poisonous spider, waiting in the dark for its prey to come to the door. The silent West Lake under the moonlight is like a woman's face hidden behind a veil, mysterious and moving, making one want to reach out and touch it. When Ouyang Shuo with an anxious expression pushed open the door of Wangyue Pavilion, Su Yu had stopped struggling and was sitting on a chair with her head down in a daze. "Su Yu, how are you? What's the matter with you?" Ouyang Shuo stepped over quickly, grabbed Su Yu's arm tightly, and asked loudly.All his attention was focused on the decadent-looking friend in front of him, and he didn't even notice a weird draft blowing through the open window, and the door behind him closed silently. After waiting for a while, Su Yu raised her head slowly, Ouyang Shuo couldn't help letting go of his hand in surprise, and took a step back.Because Su Yu's complexion is not much better than that of a dead person at this time, pale and blue, and the most frightening thing is the empty and blank eyes, as if someone took away his soul in an instant, leaving only his body . "I..." He struggled to utter a word, his voice suddenly became extremely hoarse and deep, although his mouth was moving, it seemed that he couldn't make a sound. "Su Yu, tell me quickly, what's wrong with you? I'll help you." In a hurry, Ouyang Shuo leaned forward and leaned close to Su Yu's mouth, trying to hear what he was muttering clearly. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Su Yu's eyes, who had always been in a daze, suddenly shot out a strange light of excitement.As soon as he raised his right hand, he firmly clamped Ouyang Shuo who was very close to him, and swung his other hand out from the back of the chair, stroking across Ouyang's neck quickly.There was a heart-wrenching scream from the Wangyue Pavilion. Ouyang Shuo covered his neck with his hands, took a few steps back and knelt down on the ground weakly, the dark red blood kept gushing out from between his fingers, and fell drop by drop on the carpeted floor. On an apricot carpet. Holding the dagger, Su Yu stood up from the chair and stared blankly at Ouyang Shuo who was moaning in pain. His eyes became excited and frantic. Suddenly he raised his head and laughed wildly. While laughing, he swung the dagger vigorously, calling out Said: "Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill them all!" Ouyang Shuo covered his wound and struggled to crawl towards the door, while turning his head to look at Su Yu with a hideous face in horror.He really couldn't imagine what kind of strange force turned the calm and quick-witted Su Yu into such a lunatic in this short day!And Su Yu was obviously red-eyed, brandishing a dagger and approaching Ouyang Shuo, who was about to be exhausted due to excessive blood loss, step by step. "Brush!" At this critical moment, the lights in the room went out.In the darkness, only the sound of overturning tables and chairs and fighting and rolling could be heard.After a while, only low panting and moaning could be heard in the whole moon-watching pavilion.
