Chapter 293 Blood Puppet (Part 1) -
Xu Wuzuo and his four apprentices were all dead.
When Mo Tingfeng arrived, no one was left alive, and the entire Bingjiao Village was reduced to ashes.
In fact, from the sudden fire to the time when everything was reduced to embers, it only took a few minutes to make an incense seal. An ordinary fire would never have caused such a devastating scene.
The location of Wanxing Yizhuang is relatively remote, and there are no homes nearby, so the fire did not involve the public and cause a major disaster.
Mo Tingfeng stepped into the Yizhuang that had been burned to the ground. Where the morgue bed was originally placed, a pair of intact red embroidered shoes were neatly placed on top of the embers - the same pair that Du Juan was wearing when she hanged herself. .
Paired with the grayness, the pair of red lotus and water chestnuts look even more abrupt and strange.
......
Although Ye Wujiu was injured by the poison, he still arrived before Ding Heran. The sights everywhere made him feel shocked. After all, the underground network he controlled was at the same time. Also responsible for the security of Si Chen Mansion.
He immediately cast a spell and swung a sword into the air. Following the sound of the sword, a short hawk's call sounded in the mansion, as if in response, and then the entire Sichen Mansion was instantly wrapped in a transparent defensive barrier. .
At this time, Ding Heran also arrived. He couldn't help but scream after taking one look at the miserable situation in Yizhuang.
"It must have been the necromancer who did it!"
Mo Tingfeng used a spell in his palm to sweep over the pair of red embroidered shoes. There were indeed traces of Ma Zhenchun's puppet energy and fire armor on them. Super magic can react, but he shook his head,
"It was Du Juan who did it."
"Du Juan?"
Ding Heran was stunned,
"Isn't she dead? I checked it myself, and it's absolutely dead!"
He felt that his brain had been stolen.
Although there is a precedent for Ma Zhenchun to "resurrection from the dead", after all, he was a Class A fire warlock during his lifetime - and according to Ye Wujiu, before he was refined into a Qixing species, he still had at least one When the two souls are not separated from the body, it takes enough time to imprison the soul in the body through a very special method, so that he can become a "living dead" who can't die.
But Dujuan is just a maid, to put it harshly, she has no cultivation power. There is no sign of being refined during her lifetime, let alone the value of refining her. If all this is her What he did was simply unbelievable.
...
"My lord, you mean... Du Juan has also become a necromancer?"
"No."
"But she seems to be able to borrow that The power of the Necromancer. "
"I think there must be some kind of contract exchange between them. Before she died, she was implanted with a clear 'action obsession' to achieve something after her death. A purpose, of course this contract will also meet her requirements. ”
Hearing what Mo Tingfeng said, Ding Heran felt a strange and inappropriate emotion in his heart - although Du Juan was indeed pitiful, she couldn't just cheat her after death! If both of them are so outrageous, how will he do his official duties in the future?
He suddenly remembered what Song Weichen said when he first met her a long time ago,
"My job in love is a master-level hell mode. I am going to die every minute. Can I resign?"< br>
......
While I was feeling resentful, a team of underground network grudge breakers responsible for the security of the mansion had arrived.
Seeing the situation in Bingjiao Yizhuang, the team leader was so frightened and frightened that he even forgot to salute.
"Sir, Commander Ye! We just patrolled this place a moment ago, and there was nothing unusual. This..."
Ye Wujiu waved his hand to stop him from continuing. Invalid information , it’s okay if you don’t listen.
"From this moment on, additional manpower will be sent to strengthen security in the house. Ma Zhenchun has not been caught, and the defensive barrier is not clear. No more accidents must occur."
"Yes!"
The leader of the Grudge Breaker responded and was about to retreat to conduct a detailed survey of the embers of Yizhuang when he was stopped by Mo Tingfeng.
“You have always been responsible for the security of Fuzhong?”
“Sir, for the past two hundred years, the security and personnel movements of Fuzhong have been managed by subordinates.”
"That being the case, do you know where Du Juan has been and who he has met since arriving at Si Chen's Mansion?"
The team leader bowed to Mo Tingfeng,
"During the visit of the eldest princess, all the movements of the two nobles in the venerable mansion and their close maids in Sichen's mansion will be personally responsible for them."
"After Du Juan arrived at the mansion, in addition to sending doctors, I have never left the Venerable Mansion. Due to physical reasons, she had been staying at the Fuzhong Medical Center and returned to the Supreme Mansion from the medical center before her suicide. ""Medical Clinic?"
Mo Ting Feng Lue. After pondering, I decided to go to the medical clinic.
As soon as he turned around, he turned back and bowed silently to Xu Jin.
"Xu Wuzuo, brothers, I'm sorry, it's Tingfeng who didn't protect you. The Sichen Mansion will arrange your family affairs properly, so you can go with peace of mind."
"He Ran, order people to do their best. Find some of the ashes of Xu Zuzuo and others and give them to the palace managers to send to their homes. In addition, be sure to arrange funeral arrangements and pensions. "
"Yes!"
.
Sichen Mansion Medical Center does not have any injuries most of the time. The doctors at the medical center have nothing to do and often take two medicine boys to nearby villages and towns to practice medicine on a voluntary basis.
So when Mo Tingfeng and others arrived, there was only one boy in the hospital who was making medicine and taking a nap guarding the turned-off medicine stove. When he heard footsteps, he opened his eyes sleepily. When he saw it was him, he was frightened. He stood up and then knelt down again.
"Master Si Chen! I heard from Miss Guyu that there is no need to boil medicine for Miss Sangpu. She has gone to Sikong Mansion with Mr. Yu Heng. So, that's why..."
The boy who prepared the medicine thought that Mo Tingfeng was here to ask questions, so he hurriedly explained.
Mo Tingfeng was stunned. He obviously didn't know that Song Weichen had left the house.
Four hours have passed since she was taken away by Zhuang Yuheng during the piano banquet in the back mountain forest. Mo Tingfeng has been busy dealing with these emergencies and has no time to visit, but it does not mean that he is not worried.
In fact, he sent a targeted summons to Zhuang Yuheng, but he didn't reply at all. He never thought that he would leave the house with Song Weichen.
Mo Tingfeng is not an emotionally dull person. Of course he understands that not only Song Weichen, but also Zhuang Yuheng is resentful of his current state of mind.
Indeed, how could he and Qin Xueying do that, even if they were poisoned by the sound of the heart-obsessing harp that was contaminated by the blood of the 癙癙, they were all excuses, not reasons.
... At this thought, Mo Tingfeng felt sad for a moment, and his whole person was shrouded in a layer of shadow.
Ding Heran didn't know that Mo Tingfeng was distracted, but he saw him with a stern look on his face, staring at the medicine boy kneeling on the ground without saying a word, which frightened the latter to the point where he almost fainted. He quickly came out to smooth things over.
"What are you doing kneeling down? Get up quickly and find all the things Du Juan has used and present them to you."
"Yes, yes!"
The boy got up in a hurry. He didn't know the news of Du Juan's death. Lord Si Chen came to inquire in person, thinking it was out of concern for the people walking around the noble man, and quickly led a few people to the single ward at the back of the hospital.
“This is the special ward for Miss Dujuan while she is recuperating. Because she left suddenly today, I am not sure whether she will come back, so I haven’t packed it up yet. All the things here are the things she used while she was recuperating. They're all here."
"Go down."
The case was complicated and confusing, so Mo Tingfeng calmed down and replied lightly, as if the young man had received amnesty, he disappeared in an instant.
The three of them split up and inspected the room carefully.
Mo Tingfeng sorted out the information in his mind while checking.
Firstly, Du Juan must have had contact with the necromancer, but if he wants to borrow Ma Zhenchun’s necromancy power, he must not It may be achieved through a simple contact or two. It is more likely that the forces behind Ma Zhenchun fell in love with Du Juan and did this deliberately.
In any case, it means that Du Juan must have had intensive secret contacts with Ma Zhenchun when he was in Sichen Mansion.
Secondly, the Venerable Mansion is full of elite attendants brought by Qin Xueying. In addition, there is a special team of grudge breakers guarding day and night, with many eyes and ears. It is unrealistic for them to meet in the Venerable Mansion, so the greatest possibility Sex is in the hospital.
But the strange thing about this matter is that no matter whether it is the Lord's Mansion or the Medical Center, it is impossible for the Necromancer to enter even half a step. Once he enters Si Chen's Mansion, the necromantic aura on his body will Directly triggering the defensive barrier was exactly the barrier that Ye Wujiu sent out a signal to activate today.
But the barrier has not responded so far, indicating that Ma Zhenchun has never entered the mansion - so how did he exchange contracts with Du Juan, who never left the mansion?
......
Ye Wujiu paused for a long time in front of a medicine bowl on the table in the corner of the ward. He performed the operation repeatedly to confirm before speaking hesitantly.
"Sir, there seems to be a reaction of puppet energy in this medicine bowl. I'm sorry that my subordinate is injured and the magic power is unstable, so I can't be sure."
Mo Tingfeng rushed over to perform the magic test, and sure enough, there were a few sporadic things. The almost undetectable spider web-like strands of puppet energy, mixed with the power of Grade A fire spells, are in line with the characteristics of the uncontrollable overflow of puppet energy from the necromancer, which is consistent with the collapse of the Kirigakure Village at that time. Exactly the same as what was found in the empty crypt.
There were scattered remnants of the decoction at the bottom of the bowl, which seemed to be Cuckoo's medicine.
But this medicine was prescribed by my doctor, prepared by a medicine boy, and brewed by a boy. There must be no problem. How could the breath of a necromancer appear in it?
