Chapter 348 Half-Cut Corpse
“Leave quickly and don’t stay near the ancestral hall for a long time.” The housekeeper ordered aloud.
He looked at the several flustered servants with a solemn expression:
“I’ve been holding back what I saw just now. If anyone tells it, those two little Girl, this is your fate.”
“Understood, we must keep it secret, even if the sky falls, we will not tell anything.”
The servant who knocked out the two little girls before said quickly.
Hearing this, the housekeeper nodded, but he was very satisfied with these words:
"It's best this way."
After saying that, they left the ancestral hall. .
The gloomy ancestral hall made people's hair stand on end. They didn't dare to stay for a long time. The old locust tree growing next to the ancestral hall had branches everywhere. When it was blown by the wind, it opened its teeth and claws, and looked like a ghost playing tricks on itself. claws.
The ancestral hall was dark, the two little maids were unconscious, and the souls in the ancestral hall exuded a cold feeling.
On the beam, the looming feet swayed gently in the darkness, which was terrifying and strange.
......
"What's the situation? Have you found the ghost?" In the luxurious hall of the city lord's palace, a numb-looking middle-aged man looked at the two dressed men next to him. The two men in rat embroidered clothes asked.
“Found it, we are testing the murder pattern.” A slightly thinner man among the two said.
His expression was numb and cold, and his body exuded a coldness, which gave people an ominous feeling at a glance.
"Process it as soon as possible. May my emperor live a long life. As a place where the rivers converge, Yongye City cannot allow ghosts to cause trouble at this time." The middle-aged man said.
"We understand." The two said at the same time.
"By the way, what is the situation over there in Taiyuan City? I heard that several Chenlong guards died in Chenlong Division. They seemed to be killed by three people in strange clothes, and all the ghosts on them were taken away. , how is this going?" the middle-aged man asked curiously.
“Reporting to the Chief, this is indeed true. Four people from Chenlong Division were killed in the wilderness. The ghosts on their bodies were not recovered and were suspected to have been taken away.”
"Currently, Chenlong Division has issued a wanted order and offered a reward for the three thieves. I believe it won't be long before the daring criminals are caught and brought to justice."
Hearing what his subordinate said, the middle-aged man nodded. , I don’t feel anything in my heart.
The twelve heads of the imperial department are rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and pig.
All the twelve division leaders are not human beings, among which Zi Shu is the strongest and Hai Zhu is the weakest.
The strongest thing mentioned here is the ability to kill. Zishu is the most terrifying in killing people, and Haizhu is the most terrifying in his ability to save his life.
There is no distinction between them.
Taiyuan City is under the jurisdiction of Chen Long. If someone kills someone from Chen Long Division, according to Chen Long’s temper, the perpetrator will probably be hung on the city wall in the near future.
"What's going on in the capital? I heard from Chou Niu that a big red coffin appeared in Prince Ping's Mansion in Kyoto. Its appearance hid all the ghosts in Kyoto. Chou Niu has been unable to do anything about it until now. We entered Prince Ping's Mansion because of the coffin. What happened?" The middle-aged man's eyes turned slightly. Dong looked at the two of them and asked
Hearing this question, the two rat guards were a little silent. After a while, one of them said:
"Report to the Chief. "My subordinates have not investigated this matter clearly. We cannot penetrate too much into the matter in Kyoto, so we do not know the specific reason for this matter."
"It's my subordinate who is incompetent. Please forgive me, Chief!"
The two of them knelt on the ground directly, with extremely respectful expressions.
The middle-aged man frowned. He looked at the two of them with a meaningful look in his eyes.
"Okay, I don't blame you for this. The place in Kyoto is already strict, and the ugly cow is in Kyoto, so it's normal that you guys can't infiltrate."
"Get up, I'm going to tell you that the Lord of the City will start the examination of the imperial department in advance, and ask the merchants of the major families to prepare people and send them to the Lord of the City within three days." The middle-aged man waved his hand and said casually.
"I understand, I will go down and inform you immediately." They both said at the same time.
"Okay, let's go down and do your own thing as soon as possible." The middle-aged man said.
"My subordinates resign." The two of them said this and quickly stood up and left.
The middle-aged man looked at the backs of the two people with a calm expression. No one knew what this man, who was the imperial minister and the Lord of Yongye City, was thinking.
Even the confidants are the same.
"It won't be a problem for my son to subdue that ghost, as long as there are enough handsome men. That ghost's killing method is really strange. It only kills good-looking men..."
"Thanks to my son's appearance. He’s still considered middle-class, otherwise where can he find a man who is more handsome than him?”
The middle-aged man chuckled, using people to pave the way, and then subduing and controlling ghosts. This kind of thing can be seen everywhere in the country. .
Not surprising.
The middle-aged man took a sip of tea, his eyes darkened, he stood up and walked to his study.
Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.
......
"Brother Lin, how are you feeling today? Isn’t the scenery of Yongye River beautiful."
On the way back to Liu Mansion, Liu Yun was there Lin Qian was very cheerful around him.
Pretending to be very good, the longer you stay with Lin Qian, the better Liu Yun's acting skills become.
I have to admit that ladies from wealthy families are very scheming.
"Well, it's very beautiful. Of course, the scenery is beautiful, but it's not half as good as Yun'er." Lin Qian said with a smile.
Acting requires a complete performance. He is now acting like a young boy who is confused by the knowledge and beauty of everyone's ladies.
This character design has not collapsed yet, and Lin Qian feels that her acting skills are very good.
"Brother Lin, you know how to say nice things." Liu Yun lowered her head, looking a little shy.
Brother Lin smiled, said some nice words casually, and excused himself.
Back at Liu Mansion, Lin Qian returned to his own scenery accompanied by Liu Yun.
I didn’t eat lunch with them, it was delivered by a servant.
After lunch, Lin Qian stayed in the house by herself and did not go out for a walk.
Sitting at the desk, Lin Qian looked at himself in the bronze mirror. The gauze on his head hindered his appearance.
Recalling everything he encountered this morning, Lin Qian was a little silent. He knew where this place was and what the department that dealt with supernatural events was.
But Lin Qian still had no idea about finding the Starving Ghost and the Creepy Bride next.
This is very troublesome...
"I don't know where the sword is. I walked outside all morning today and found nothing unusual. Except for the pawnshop owner who died tragically, in Yongjian Yecheng seems to be very peaceful."
"Gozenji's ability to deal with ghosts is really interesting."
Lin Qian looked out the window. There was still more than an hour, or two hours, at most until dark.
Lin Qian's eyes were deep: "Go out and take a look at night, maybe you can see some clues."
The activities of ghosts generally occur day and night, but the chance of abnormality is greatest at night of.
This seems to be a law.
The night came soon, and the dinner was still delivered. The eldest lady Liu Yun was very polite, looking like she cared about her lover.
If Lin Qian hadn't known what was going on, she would have thought she fell in love with him at first sight.
“The big family’s plan is really rash. I don’t know how Liu Quan got into the position of the head of the family.”
Lin Qian stood on the roof, looking at the darkness. The lights, I thought to myself.
The Liu Mansion was very quiet at night. The servants turned off the lights very early and went to bed. Except for Liu Quan's study, which was still lit, the rest were in darkness.
Lin Qian touched the back of his head and looked in one direction. There was a gloomy place, and the branches and leaves on the old locust tree made people feel extremely ominous.
That should be the ancestral hall, the darkness seemed unusual even in the darkness.
"It turns out that the family has a strong ghost, which affects some of their IQs." When she saw the ancestral hall, Lin Qian had a rough idea of what was going on.
It is normal for someone to be mentally slowed down by being slowly affected by the supernatural being after being away from the Li Gui for such a long time.
Lin Qian walked on the roof with light steps and did not make any movement. It is so convenient to be superb in martial arts.
Quickly turning out of the Liu Mansion, Lin Qian walked on the street, looked at the lanterns hanging on the porch of the Liu Mansion, and smiled, with chills in his eyes.
The figure disappeared into the darkness and disappeared into the alley.
In a charity village, lit candles reflected on the dark coffin.
In the red shimmer, two people were walking between the coffins.
"This guy died really miserably. Half of his body has not been found yet." One person looked inside an open coffin and said in wonder.
There was a person lying inside the coffin, half a person to be precise, only the upper body but no lower body.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Finish it quickly so that you can go home and sleep. Don't you feel intrusive if you stay here?" Another person glanced at his companion and said angrily.
"I know, why are you in a hurry, just live a little."
The man looked away from the coffin, then closed the coffin lid, walked to a table, and began to talk Color the paper figures on the table.
"Third brother, what do you think is happening recently? Why do people keep dying? A few died not long ago, and we still haven't found out who killed them. Now there's another one. Let's see. I suspect this situation may not have been caused by humans," one person said.
"Why are we thinking so much? Is it because people are doing this to us? Just let the Gozenji worry about this kind of thing. Why should we worry so much? Hurry up and get to work. After all this, I still need to worry about it. Let’s go to Cuixianlou for a drink.” The person called Third Brother looked up at the other person impatiently.
But suddenly his pupils suddenly dilated, and a sense of despair appeared in his heart.
The coffin was opened, and a man was sitting on the coffin looking directly at the two of them.
The candlelight turned green, a gloom filled the air, and the coldness made the candlelight sway.
"Xiaowu, you... behind you!" (End of this chapter)
