Chapter 133: Artistic Murder (Part 2)

There was something about Hai Ming, as well as the old dean, An Mou, and the others.

There was also a video.

In the video, it was late at night, and only vaguely on the surveillance screen could we see Hai Ming with his eyes closed and a look of fear on his face, walking back and forth in the room as if sleepwalking.

He let out a series of terrified cries, saying: “I was wrong. I shouldn’t have stolen your painting… I didn’t mean to hurt you!”

“Don’t kill me Zhaosheng!”

The comments of netizens below were heated:

[Fuck? Did it turn out to be plagiarism? Then didn’t we blame He Zhaosheng wrongly before…]

[My mood is too complicated. If Hai Ming is a beast who stole his students’ painting, and he turned the tables and framed students in various ways, then we netizens have been used as a gun before, killing a genius painter!]

[These people will not have a conscience. Is someone forcing them to admit it? If I remember correctly, He Zhaosheng seems to have committed suicide, but why does Hai Ming call his name in the video?]

[He Zhaosheng, I apologize to you, I’m sorry! ]

[There will never be such a peerless genius again in the future…]

[Family members, let me tell you something terrible. I just heard from a friend in Fengcheng that several people in it who logged into these accounts and who posted the message are dead!]

[It’s terrifying to think about it, family members. It is said that in Fengcheng, there was an issue with a prophecy. I just searched it, and there was no heat on the hot search before. Is this normal?]

At this time, the death notes that have been popular in Fengcheng could no longer be covered up.

More and more netizens paid attention to it, and the popularity of related entries in the notes also rose steadily.

The police found that another anonymous post appeared on the local website, which read:

“The sixth person died in a dream.”

There was no need to guess, this was the note update posted by He Zhaosheng, who ran away, using other accounts.

Looking at the anonymous post that quickly accumulated heat, the spiritual team members gritted their teeth:

“This is too arrogant.”

The police officer on the side sighed and said: “We can only clean up the scene first.”

That night, the Fengcheng police re-reported the truth of the plagiarism case, confirming that “Vortex” was a painting by the deceased He Zhaosheng, who was vindicated by everyone three months ago.

This time, people all over the Internet felt sorry for He Zhaosheng and felt sorry for such a young genius who could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide.

Many “righteous netizens” who had previously cursed him, photoshopped his posthumous photos, and even went to the hospital to make trouble for Father He was exposed and condemned.

Some people could not bear the pressure of public opinion on the Internet and chose to apologize to He Zhaosheng.

There were also many people who refused to repent deleted their comments and cancelled their accounts, thinking that they could escape the sanctions of public opinion.

But they didn’t know that they had already accumulated a lot of karma, and they would have to pay it back sooner or later.

Taking this opportunity, the official came forward and used He Zhaosheng’s case as a typical representative, calling on the majority of netizens to think independently and not become a gun in the cyber violence.

At the same time, the official set up a special task force for similar cases, and from now on, it will vigorously crack down on cyber violence, and rectify the online water army, marketing accounts, and people who spread rumors and false information at every turn.

As for the matter of Tianyun Village, the police also reported it roughly, but they used “evil forces” as the reason.

From Fengcheng Police Station: “In recent days, our city has been infiltrated by unknown evil forces, causing serious evil incidents with more than 100 villagers killed. According to investigations, this evil force has infiltrated many cities, using the Internet as a channel to spread various spells and talismans that are harmful to the physical and mental health of others, brainwashing many people, and even causing people to commit suicide.”

“Including but not limited to the “peach blossom curse” that has recently exploded on the Internet, “fraud groups”, “groups that bully boyfriends and girlfriends”, etc. Please keep your eyes open and be vigilant. Don’t believe in these evil curses and strange curses that come from unknown sources and get something for nothing. If you encounter related incidents, you can be vigilant and go to certified professional places to seek help.”

“At present, many cities have established special investigation teams to severely crack down on the spread of evil forces in various provinces. Please also report them bravely!”

With Gu Zhisang’s reminder, the official realized the seriousness of the matter.

The Thousand-Faced God, which has been circulating in remote and backward provinces and various secret channels, has finally been listed as an urgent target for a crackdown.

The police and the Special Spiritual Department were working in parallel, digging and investigating different aspects.

After such a search, some incredible things were found.

This evil god, who appeared from nowhere, has long infiltrated the lower-class people and the middle- and high-level businessmen who have great demands for fame and fortune.

Privately inviting and offering sacrifices to the thousand faces of god has become a popular industry in some areas.

There were many believers.

In addition to the believers in public, more and more strange group chats and spells have appeared on the Internet in recent years.

For example, the “suicide game” that was popular a few years ago, and the “peach blossom curse” that has gradually emerged in the past two years.

Even the despicable group chat of the young man who live-broadcasted on the grave that Gu Zhisang once exposed in the program, and various online fraud groups…

Behind every group, there was an invisible big hand that constantly aroused their inferiority and desires as human beings.

Greed, laziness, jealousy, desire…

Everything that was despised by the world can be found in these group chats hidden on the Internet.

Everyone was shocked to realize that the reason why people have become worse and worse and the impetuous atmosphere on the Internet has become more and more rampant in recent years was due to metaphysical factors.

The officials who realized this ordered a thorough investigation and rectification.

Soon, this kind of evil god became a banned existence in the country.

For various groups and group chats, the Internet police and members of the spiritual team also followed the clues and cracked down on dozens of them.

The atmosphere on the Internet was purified a lot, and it was quite effective.

But Gu Zhisang knew in her heart that they hadn’t dug up the root cause.

*

On the day when she was about to leave Fengcheng, Gu Zhisang went to Yan Cheng’s place.

After recuperating for two or three days, his condition recovered visibly.

After hearing the current distress of the spiritual team to catch He Zhaosheng who had escaped from the illusory network, he fell silent.

After a moment, he said: “I may have a way.”

Gu Zhisang was a little surprised to hear this: “What way?”

If she knew how to catch He Zhaosheng, she wouldn’t have a headache.

The situation of this ghost was too special, and it had extremely strong mobility. Even if she can roughly lock its position from the remaining yin energy, it would be difficult to control the whole internet network and catch it.

The traditional method of catching ghosts with talismans was not feasible.

But if they don’t catch He Zhaosheng, although it doesn’t have a particularly strong energy, not very powerful or aggressive, it was obviously been deceived and brainwashed by the evil god and will continue to help the evil god expand its influence.

With such a helper, various evil forces can still be promoted very quickly on the Internet.

Therefore, it cannot be left alone.

The spiritual team held several discussions on this but failed to find a suitable way to catch He Zhaosheng.

Gu Zhisang’s current idea was to use a large number of talismans to create a wide-range formation, first lock the approximate location of He Zhaosheng, and set up a large formation nearby without alerting the enemy.

After the formation is activated, it will directly cover the entire area, and then search in a carpet-style manner to find He Zhaosheng.

However, this formation requires a lot of work. Even if she draws it, it will take more than half a month to prepare, which is time-consuming and laborious.

Not to mention finding ghosts!

After a moment of silence, Yan Cheng proposed a very novel concept: “Do you use words or language to activate some of your spells?”

Gu Zhisang: “It can be understood in this way.”

For example, in the nine-character mantra, each word is a spell, the seal gesture is the trigger to drive the power, and the spiritual energy of the caster is the most critical.

All three were indispensable.

Yan Cheng said: “Then if I try to let my subordinates make a new system and compile the spells you need into the system in the form of code, can such spells still be activated?”

Gu Zhisang: “???”

Code spells? Programming Taoism??

Was he talking about science in metaphysics and practicing Taoism in technology?

After a moment of silence, she looked confused and hesitant: “To be honest, I don’t know, how about trying it?”

No need to mention her, an ancient person who lived hundreds of years ago, she was afraid that even the recent young Taoist masters who were still studying in the Taoist Sects had never heard of such a magical combination.

After a moment of silence, Yan Cheng said:

“Then I will let my technical team try to research and develop it. If it becomes successful, we can update the system of all electronic brands under our corporation.”

Gu Zhisang searched and found that the largest mobile phone brand in China was invested, developed, and produced by the Yan Family……
