Fury Immortal Doctor Chapter 871 - 873: One Hundred Thirty-Seven Corpses

Driving straight to the location sent by Qian Shanxue, Shen Qiang quickly discovered that he had arrived at the intersection where he had ambushed the Long Yan Sword Sect before. However, the subsequent route did not lead to the Long Yan Sword Sect but to the other side of the road where Doushi Temple was located.

The car's tires crushed the gravel road.

The winter wind pressed down the withered yellow sagebrush at the side of the road, leaving only so shriveled little mountain dates covered in dust swaying on the roadside thorns.

Shen Qiang drove slowly, his gaze becoming vigilant.

For ordinary people, there was nothing remarkable here, but for cultivators, this was the territory of Doushi Temple.

And especially for Shen Qiang, he had to be cautious.

Because the relationship between Doushi Temple and Heshenghe was quite delicate.

Firstly, during Heshenghe's rise, as one of the two major cultivation forces in the Provincial City, Doushi Temple had never appeared, not participating, not disturbing, not comnting.

So Shen Qiang instinctively thought they might be friendly monks.

But similarly.

During Heshenghe Mountain Villa's celebration, invitations were specially sent to Doushi Temple.

But no one from Doushi Temple ca.

In these circumstances, where Doushi Temple clearly did not wish to associate with Heshenghe, arriving there uninvited could easily cause misunderstandings.

Particularly since Heshenghe was notorious for having many demons.

Doushi Temple, on the other hand, was inhabited by monks.

Although the two had always kept to their separate paths, in essence, there was so intrinsic incompatibility.

Soon, the gravel road turned into a narrow winding path.

Getting out of the car, Shen Qiang casually stored the car in his Storage Ring.

Shen Qiang followed the mountain path into the hillside.

A golden cicada peeked out of the pocket of his shirt, curiously looking around and said, "Master, this place is so desolate, no wonder there are bad people here."

Shen Qiang laughed, "The saying goes, 'The truly hidden stay in the wild, the deeply hidden in the city.' The real evil ones tend to hide in cities because of the dense population and diverse characters. If they keep a low profile, no one will pay attention. In remote places like this, sparse inhabitants make it hard to keep any secrets unnoticed."

"Hence, people who place their lair here aren't particularly clever ones, so we don't need to worry too much."

Upon hearing this, the golden cicada looked at Shen Qiang with admiration, "Master, you're so amazing."

Shen Qiang smiled, "This isn't amazing, it's just common sense."

Following the narrow winding path, Shen Qiang found the location based on the satellite coordinates on his phone.

It was a cave hidden in the mountains.

Upon entering the cave, Shen Qiang imdiately saw the heroic and cold-faced Qian Shanxue standing by the edge of a vertical pit, while Ye Xiaolei was sitting beside her with a pale face.

Surveying the relatively tidy cave, Shen Qiang frowned, "This place looks quite clean and tidy, not bad."

Qian Shanxue said, "Co over here."

Shen Qiang walked over and found a large vertical shaft in front of him.

Peering down, even though he was ntally prepared, Shen Qiang still couldn't help but inhale sharply.

At the bottom of the shaft, enormous numbers of corpses lay scattered haphazardly.

Ali and three other Dragon Group mbers were down there wearing gloves and masks, sorting things out.

"They are the Dragon Group's forensic team; do you want to go down and help?"

Upon hearing Qian Shanxue's question, Shen Qiang hesitated slightly before lightly leaping down.

The shaft was extensive.

The area was roughly over two hundred square ters.

The vertical drop was about twenty ters, roughly equivalent to six floors.

Donning a mask, gloves, and shoe covers, Shen Qiang imdiately noticed the corpses surrounding him were all frozen solid.

Moreover.

The bottom of the shaft was so cold that it fell below freezing point, causing the walls of the shaft to be covered in heavy frost.

"What's the status?" Shen Qiang asked Ali.

Ali replied, "Preliminary counting indicates we found a total of 137 corpses, all male, with heights exceeding 1.8 ters. They are well-built, and at the ti of death, they were between 30 and 35 years old."

Shen Qiang nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."

At that mont, Ali stuffed her notebook and pen into Shen Qiang's hands, "You take these; I can't handle it anymore. I'm going up."

Saying this, Ali sprang up and left at once.

Approaching the three Dragon Group forensic specialists conducting surface examinations, Shen Qiang asked, "Any peculiar findings?"

One forensic specialist stood up, glanced aningfully upwards, and said, "There are many peculiarities: besides the fact that all 137 bodies are male, over 1.8 ters tall, aged between 30 and 35, another common trait is that their genital organs have all been removed."

Shen Qiang was taken aback.

He quickly examined the nurous corpses and found they were indeed as described.

"The ti of death varies significantly. Although frozen, the muscles of the lower bodies have turned yellow and black, indicating that they've been here for more than 30 years."

Taking a glance at Shen Qiang, the forensic specialist continued, "A similar case occurred once, involving a female demonic cultivator who practiced harvesting male essence to replenish her own. To avoid leaving traces, she removed the n's organs. Her thods closely resemble these, so we have strong reasons to believe this is her lair and that she stayed here for over 30 years."

Another forensic specialist comnted, "The most recent body should be this one, with the ti of death within the last month."

Looking at the body, Shen Qiang was silent for a mont, then asked, "What are your plans now?"

"Of course, we'll transport the bodies back for autopsy and source tracing."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang nodded, handed over the notebook and pen to a forensic specialist, "It's up to you now."

With that, amidst the surprised gazes of the forensic specialists, Shen Qiang sprang up and out.

Inside the cave.

Qian Shanxue's elegant face was frosty, Ye Xiaolei looked pale, and Ali remained speechless.

Arriving at the cave, Shen Qiang headed straight out, "Watching the spectacle here won't solve anything. We need to catch the culprit."

Upon hearing this, Qian Shanxue followed with a cold face, "I've heard what you said. I will definitely catch that female demonic cultivator."

Ali, following along, added, "How can there be such a vicious woman in this world."

Ye Xiaolei, face pale, said, "I can't imagine that a woman could be so cruel."

Listening to them, Shen Qiang sighed and stopped at the cave entrance. Calmly, he turned back to look at them, "Don't be misled by previous records. This demonic cultivator isn't a woman but a monk."
