You Jianghu people really know how to play

The stench seemed to have been lingering in the dry body for more than ten years, and it was only at this time that it had a chance to rush out. It was very agitated, rushing around.

Shen Guangming and Tang Ou took a few steps back at the same time.Sima Feng and Chi Yebai in the room were still calm, Chi Yebai looked embarrassed just now, and now he took a step closer to the corpse: "Is there any?"

Sima Feng's voice sounded muffled, as if holding his breath: "Yes. Some are dead and some are alive."

He rummaged for a while, and he really pulled out a few Gu worms from the corpse's skull.Some are withered and dead, while others are still wriggling lively.

Shen Guangming and Tang Ou had already been smoked to the edge of the yard by the stench.An attendant from the mansion ran over from afar, covered his nose and asked loudly, "Why does it stink? What happened?"

Shen Guangming: "The autopsy is in progress! Let's take a look."

The man shook, didn't stop at all, turned around and ran away again.

Tang Ou looked at him and covered his nose with his hand.

Sima Feng and Chi Yebai came out, their hands covered in stench, they stood in the courtyard, taking deep breaths at the same time.

"Still smelly." Sima Feng said, and wiped his hands on Chi Yebai's clothes beside him.

Chi Yebai's face changed suddenly, and he flew away, shaking his hands to take off his coat.

Shen Guangming felt that Chi Yebai was too pitiful.Such a clean, tidy and good-looking person, he became indignant: "Chi Dangjia..."

Before he finished speaking, Sima Feng dashed over and touched his face.

Shen Guangming: "..."

Sima Feng: "It's just the back of the hand."

Shen Guangming: "..."

He quickly ran to Chi Yebai's side, and washed his hands and face with him.

Tang Ou's face was not very good-looking: "Why are you so dirty?"

Sima Feng took some powder from the leather bag and rubbed his hands carefully: "It's not dirty, I threw away the gloves. Just kidding, don't make your face so dark."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch Tang Ou's face again.

Tang Ou blocked him and pushed him back a few steps.

"...Brother Tang and I haven't fought yet?" Sima Feng smiled, eager to try.

"Stop talking nonsense." Chi Yebai took off his coat and rolled it up in his hands, "Let's talk about the autopsy."

Shen Guangming's face was flushed from rubbing by himself, and he also walked over.

It was a female corpse that had been dead for at least ten years. She was young and had never given birth. The fatal wound was on the back of the neck and she was killed with a sharp weapon.The sharp weapon seemed to be a knife blade, and half a cut pearl was embedded deep in the wound, which should have been worn by the woman.

There are Gu worms in the brain of the corpse, and the Gu worms are alive and dead.The dead Gu worms were shriveled, and most of them were rotten until they had only one shape left.Sima Feng expressed his own deduction: "This means that she died not long ago, and someone put Gu worms into her head. This woman is not a child of an ordinary family. That pearl is very expensive. Lingyong City is located in the northwest. Bei is extremely rare, and being able to wear this thing on the neck is even more extraordinary."

"More than ten years ago...would she be one of the people who were accused of manipulating corpses?" Tang Ou asked, "For some reason, those people stopped, so this corpse also stopped for more than ten years, and it only appeared now .”

"If what Xu Zichuan said is true, then the person who created so many zombies at that time should be a person from Dongyuan Wang Mule. He wanted to practice and become familiar with corpse control techniques, so he randomly selected people."

Shen Guangming was still wiping his face slightly, and retorted after hearing the words: "That's not right. If you want to practice corpse control, why do you want to find a rich man like that girl?"

He looked at the three people in front of him and said seriously: "Whenever there is such a random murder case, the dead are mostly low-class people like us, beggars, liars, and gangsters. Are you going to kill the rich because you are afraid that others will not take this matter seriously? "

Sima Feng and Chi Yebai looked at each other, they both frowned and did not speak.

"Also, why are all those corpses facing this way? If he wants to revive the Lion Army, it would be better to use the people of Lingyong City to try his hand than directly use the killed prisoners of war. First kill the people and then put the Gu worms, why not directly Like a Gu worm in the dead body?" Tang Ou asked.

Sima Feng and Chi Yebai didn't answer, and they were apparently also troubled by the answer to this question.

"Go to Xu Zichuan's place to dig again?" Chi Yebai said, "He knows a lot..."

Before the words were finished, someone rushed over from outside the courtyard, shouting "Patriarch" all the way.

The man was brought by Sima Feng, and he stopped abruptly before reaching the gate of the courtyard, holding his breath with puffy face.

"Old Huo, come in." Sima Feng said.

"If I can't be the master, I'll leave after I finish speaking." The man said quickly, "We interviewed many people, but either they couldn't remember what happened more than ten years ago, or they refused to mention it because it was unlucky. But the watchman in the east of the city said More than ten years ago, his father was the first to discover that there were zombies in Lingyong City, the old man is now sick in bed and may soon be dying, Patriarch, do you want to ask yourself?"

"Go." Sima Feng walked out immediately.

"... Patriarch, let's take a shower first." The man took a few steps back and said.

Sima Feng looked back at Chi Yebai: "Do you want to wash?"

Chi Yebai sniffled in disgust, turned around and walked over the wall.

Sima Feng didn't feel embarrassed either, and said with a smile, "He washed it himself when he got home."

Shen Guangming and Tang Ou also left soon.Tang Ou asked him to find some saponins to wash his face. Shen Guangming always felt that his face smelled bad and kept rubbing it.

Tang Ou can hang around in the mansion openly now, and because he is a young and promising knight, he naturally has some arrogance and doesn't care about others.Tang Ou pretended to look alike, turned around while pretending, and ran into Mindal who came out to breathe in the garden.

He didn't see Mindar, but he immediately realized the identity of the woman in front of him, so he saluted without being humble.

Mindal heard about Sima Feng and others from Shu Lang, and was full of curiosity and appreciation when he saw this strange and handsome young man in front of him.

She talked to Tang Ou for a few words, and the topic naturally turned to the corpse.

Although Mindal was a woman, she was not very frightened. "Shu Lang was afraid that I would be shocked, so he was very nervous. I didn't care too much. A few years ago, Mu Le was fighting with his brothers. I was sewing clothes in the tent, and those bloody people rushed in." She smiled. He said, "I am not afraid of the living, but am I afraid of the dead?"

Tang Ou thought the princess was quite interesting, so he said a few more words.While talking, he casually told Sima Feng's discovery just now.

Mindal's complexion suddenly changed.

"Pearls?" she asked anxiously, "What kind of pearls? How big?"

Tang Ou said honestly: "I don't know. There is only half of the wound deep in the corpse, and the rest have not been found."

Mindal bit his lip and remained silent for a while.Tang Ou waited nervously for her next words, but did not make a sound.

"Pearls are very rare in Lingyong City. Even for me, I only have them in the dowry when I get married." Mindal said slowly, "Ten years ago, there was only one family in Lingyong City. With such financial resources and courage, you can hang this rare thing around your daughter's neck."

Tang Ou never expected that he would find out the origin of the corpse by mistake, and listened carefully.

"That girl is younger than me, she is a very lively child, she is very beautiful, and everyone in Lingyong City knows the beauty." Mindal recalled, "She said she would give me a string of pearls, but I didn't want it. .It was a gift from her parents on her birthday, so I can't take it."

"I don't know her very well, and sometimes... I even feel a little jealous of her. She gave me pearls because she wanted me to help her." Mindal smiled sadly, "She likes my cousin, and she wants me to help her out." In front of my brother, say more things he likes to hear."

Tang Ou nodded, still listening carefully.

"When my cousin disappeared, she also disappeared. Everyone said that the two of them eloped together, but after my cousin came back, she never saw her again." Mindal shook her head, "I didn't expect that she would That's how he died. I really shouldn't say..."

Tang Ou thought, you can't even imagine that she has something to do with your husband-in-law.

Mindal stopped talking, gently rubbed the handkerchief on his hand, and sighed softly.

"What does cousin mean to her... Poor her, she won't know until she dies."

On the other side, Shen Guangming finally washed his hands and face, quickly poured the water and turned to look for Tang Ou.

The mansion is quite big, he was afraid that Tang Ou would get lost.But after thinking about it, it's impossible. If you get lost, Tang Ou can just go to the room directly.

After walking for a while, he saw a black cat lying on the road in the distance, and Xu Zichuan was sitting under a tree with all its leaves, looking at a book.

"Mr. Xu." Shen Guangming hurriedly greeted him respectfully.

He always felt that Xu Zichuan was very mysterious and powerful.Maybe he had already seen the details of himself and Chi Yebai and others, but they kept silent.

Xu Zichuan hummed, beckoned him to go over, and asked about the results of the autopsy.

Shen Guangming asked in surprise, "How do you know that we will dissect the body?"

"It stinks." Xu Zichuan said coldly, "My study is just downwind."

Shen Guangming shrank again, and quickly said the matter.When he mentioned that there were pearls on the corpse, Xu Zichuan suddenly raised his head with frightened eyes.Shen Guangming was also taken aback, and the black cat behind him meowed for a long time, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Pearl..." Xu Zichuan confirmed again, "Is it really a pearl?"

Shen Guangming: "Yes. Do you know who that is?"

Xu Zichuan lost his strength and leaned on the wheelchair.

"Of course I know who it is." He whispered, "I killed her."

Shen Guangming listened nervously.

"Sima Feng and the others should have told you that Mu Le's men captured me, right?" Xu Zichuan said slowly, "When I was taken away that day, someone accidentally saw her. She didn't know martial arts, and there was no one around at that time." , She called for help, but there was no response. So she followed quietly by herself, trying to save me."

Xu Zichuan let out a long sigh, and said shyly, "Idiot."
