Qingguan Nightmare Shadow

All of Yunli's guesses were based on the fact that "the daughter of the Qian Cheng family is dead".To prove his guess, it is natural to first confirm the fact that Gan Cheng's daughter was killed.The next day, the three of them pieced together the address information of the son-in-law of Qian Cheng's family from the few words of the neighbors. However, when they followed the clues to find the destination, people around said that the two brothers who lived here had moved away.

When strangers came to visit, passers-by would stop for a while in front of the low house of the son-in-law of Gan Cheng's family, and those who were curious would ask where the three of them came from and what they were doing here.Since what the three of them did was not something that needed to be covered up, Su Tong told the story of the three of them and what happened in detail, and finally asked: "The two brothers are businessmen?"

Hearing that there was a murder case, those who stayed did not leave, and those who did not come nearby were greeted by people who spread the word everywhere.When Su Tong asked, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and most of them shook their heads blankly.

Soon, an old woman said: "Those two brothers moved here a few days ago, and now they have moved away. I haven't heard where they have land, maybe they are actually doing business."

"That's true. After all, people who live a stable life don't run around here and there every now and then."

Just as someone echoed the old woman's words, the old woman suddenly raised her voice and said hoarsely: "Hey, hey, what are you doing?!"

Yun Li kicked the door open.

The old woman took a trembling step forward and accused: "You child, you don't look like an uneducated child, how can you touch other people's things casually..." Before she finished speaking, Yun Li had already entered with Si Ming Xiaoxian house, leaving Su Junzi to deal with the aftermath of this uneducated child.Su Tong said something like "human life is at stake", and then opened the door and entered.

Yunli looked around, and after a while, he poked his head out and said, "You guys have to take a good look, whether those two have moved away or escaped." In the room, there are all necessities for daily life, the most important thing is that the bed There is a rucksack, which is necessary for a long trip, and a few clothes are stuffed inside the rucksack.Yunli took out the clothes and found some broken pancakes.

Si Ming Xiaoxian said: "They packed their luggage, but why didn't they take it away?"

Yunli: "Aren't they two people? Here, there is only one bag. Assuming that the corpse is really one of the two brothers, if the living one wants to escape, of course there is no need to take the dead man's clothes with him." While he was speaking, there was discussion outside, and many people said that it didn't look like the brothers were moving.After pondering for a moment, Yun Li asked towards the door: "Before, how did you know that the people living here 'moved'?"

A young man raised his hand and said, "I saw it."

Yunli: "What did you see?"

The young man said: "I saw the two of them leaving the village with a big bag of things."

Yun Li: "Two people?"

The young man nodded awkwardly.

Yun Li sighed: "That's right. Let me ask you, don't you know that one of them just married a girl?" The young man patted his forehead and said shyly, "Oh, yes." At this moment, The old woman spoke again: "When they got married, the two brothers neither announced the news nor set up a table for a banquet. I only knew that this brother got married when I saw a baby girl in the village and asked who she was. "

Two people, a big bag of "stuff", moving, and a single bag.Yunli was almost certain that the two brothers had killed someone and abandoned the body, and when they were about to leave, they were blocked and killed by a wizard hired by Gan Cheng's family.He arbitrarily took his rationalized conjecture as evidence, felt that there was no need to waste time in Huzhou on other people's affairs, and said to Su Tong and Si Ming Xiaoxian: "Doesn't Mang County just want an explanation? Bind them to the monitoring station, and let their Qingtian master investigate and deal with the rest."

Su Tong asked the young man, "When did you see them leave the village?"

Yunli knew that Su Tong was serious about things, and felt that he could not deny his good quality of patience and meticulousness, so he let him and the young man continue to ask and answer.

The young man said with a red face, "We live near the entrance of the village. I saw it when I got up at night to relieve my hand, and I don't know the exact time."

Su Tong: "Did they never come back?"

Youth: "Well... Anyway, I didn't see it."

Yun Li interjected, "I must have been back." He pointed to his bag, "And when he came back to pack, one of them was unlucky and was dragged into the courtyard of Gan Cheng's family."

When Yunli was speaking, Su Tong stared at him as if he was listening to a teacher lecture.Yun Li thought to himself that what he said was not a proverb, so Su Tong didn't need to show a careful expression; being stared at strangely, Yun Li coughed and waved his hands lightly: "I'm done talking, you can ask your questions later." He pondered After a while, Su Tong raised his head and said, "Which one is the husband of the goddamn girl? How does he treat the goddamn girl?"

The old woman: "I don't know, I don't know. The girl usually stays in the house and doesn't go out. We finally saw her come out, and we couldn't hear her. She must be an honest person, and she looks very quiet. Married Those who have her should be blessed... Hey, in fact, there is no fixed number of brothers who come and go, the best girl, it is a grievance to follow one of them."

More than being wronged.The girl followed the brothers, and now she is dead.

Yun Li thought, as a father who knew his daughter was murdered, it is understandable for Gan Cheng's family to vent their anger by killing people. If he was the head of the monitoring station sitting in the hall, the first thing he should do is to arrest the person who ran away and ask him first. Even if Gan Chengjia's methods are cruel, considering his daughter's side, he will deal with it leniently.However, Yunli has been writing mortal life books for hundreds of years and is used to seeing all kinds of strange officials. Although he sympathizes with the Gan Cheng family at the moment, if the main and deputy departments of the Huzhou Supervision Station are the kind who don't go into details and want to make things easier, they will be imprisoned. The Gan Cheng family felt that Yun Li would not be able to interfere with the officials who could calm things down.

The three of Yunli could have sent Gan Cheng's family to the supervisor's office and then got up and returned to Shuzhou to repair bamboo. After all, the relationship other than the evil corpse is no longer within the scope of the mission of Yunjue Academy.But when the three of them arrived at Qian Cheng's house, there was no sign of Qian Cheng's family.

In the quiet room, the "Broken Sword" buzzed out of its sheath, picked up the sundries on the ground with its horn-lost blade, and pulled out a fence-like plank.Afterwards, the "Broken Sword" inserted into the gap between the wooden boards, picked it up, and sent an incomplete skeleton to everyone.The skeleton was assembled from bone fragments, and its parts were undoubtedly picked out by the Gan Cheng family from the carrion.It is unbelievable that the precise and delicate silk threads at the joints of the skeleton were wound up by such a rough person as Gan Chengjia.

Si Ming Xiaoxian leaned over to check, and said, "What is the surname Gan doing?"

Yun Li brushed the skeleton with green light and said, "Exorcise ghosts."

At first Yunli thought that Gan Chengjia was driven by a perverted mentality to eviscerate the bones, but now he feels that it is more likely that putting together the skeleton is a part of the exorcism ceremony.Because he finally felt it, the shattered bones contained the dark spirit of a late wizard.

However, regardless of what he is doing to the Cheng family, the most urgent task is to find him himself.

I asked my neighbors, and I heard everyone say in unison: "Where else can he go? He went up the mountain to pick grass. Why are you looking for him?...He killed him? Hey, I just said, he looks crazy. Baoding is a problem!"

After sighing, everyone just begged the young master of Yunjue Academy to clean up the dirt that didn't exist on the corpse, and immediately went to their own business as if it had nothing to do with them.As for dealing with Gan Cheng's family, everyone seems to have the mentality of "kick him to death after seeing him", and they don't care whether he will come back in a while.

Word reached the butcher behind the hillside.When the three of Yunli set off for the "mountain" ordered by the neighbors, the butcher and his wife chased after them, each carrying a half-human long knife for butchering.The couple were very excited, saying that they were blind for running around because of their surname, and they must go up the mountain immediately at this moment, and kill him when they see him.

Yunli had a vague premonition that something was wrong, fearing that the two of them would cause more trouble when they were in a violent mood, so he followed the butcher's temper and said, "When we find him back, you hang him up and chop him slowly, uh, Ling Chi is not bad. You just ..." However, the two butchers made up their minds to go up the mountain, and the two sides had to make a compromise, that is, the two butchers calm down first, put down their long knives, and lead Yunli, Su Tong, and Si Ming Xiaoxian up the mountain as guides.

In Huzhou at the end of summer, the lush vegetation grows wildly on the mountains.The twigs and grasses of different shapes danced in eerie and treacherous gestures, and the circling ones were like ghosts.

Perhaps influenced by trifles, Yunli didn't think highly of Huzhou's mountain scenery in his heart, and subconsciously compared it with Shuzhou's scenery, feeling that the beauty of Xiuzhu was missing here.

In addition, Gan Chengjia, who suddenly appeared in the sight of everyone, instinctively praised the beautiful scenery with "different style", and was completely torn by this crack.Gan Cheng's family carried a basket on their backs, in which there were very few herbs, and only a layer of basket bottom was spread.

When he saw the people who came to look for him, he didn't mean to turn around and run away. On the contrary, he approached and said, "Is the mountain a place where you can come up casually now! Do you know which ones are treasures? All the way Step on it, how much money I have let you step on it!"

Si Ming Xiaoxian laughed and said, "You don't allow others to go up the mountain? Is this your backyard?"

Gan Chengjia rolled his eyes: "I really drove this mountain road, if I'm not sure, I won't be sure!"

The butcher breathed out his nostrils and said, "What time is this, and you are still pulling your weeds leisurely here. Don't pretend to be confused, let me ask you, you know who the dead person is, right? Tell me what you want You have one leg left, so you can go to the surveillance platform by yourself, so that we don’t have to tie you up in an ugly way.”

Gan Cheng's face changed, and he said lightly: "I don't pick herbs now. After the season is over, I drink the northwest wind? Last year I fell on my leg and lay at home for a long time. I only picked up the medicine on the tail of the season as a next-generation Waiting for the goods to sell... Speaking of which, I haven't asked you for the money you owe me!"

Butcher: "The devil knows whether your leaves are inferior products or just weeds. You will feel uncomfortable after taking a bath!"

Gan Chengjia: "I told you to wash it and then boil the water. Does your wife think it's troublesome and just put the herbal medicine in the pot? She understands herself."

The butcher's wife sneered, "It's all on me."

Gan Chengjia's language was pale and authentic: "Is it okay for you to rely on me?"

Si Ming Xiaoxian patted his hands and said: "Go around far away, go far away. Gan Chengjia, you come with us."

Gan Cheng's family has no support but no fear: "What kind of onion are you? You haven't grown all three hairs, so you have to meddle in other people's affairs. What about cultivators? The immortals and gods are far away." He glanced at the crowd a few times, and somehow fixed his eyes on Su Tong's face, "From ancient times to the present, how many so-called cultivators have cultivated? You stretch out your hand and count People you know, I bet you can't use up all five fingers."

The surname Gan pointed at Su Tong with a finger, and he was about to poke Su Tong's nose.Yun Li was upset, always felt that someone surnamed Gan who looked down on the people in his book was the same as looking down on him, the immortal king who was in charge of orders. In addition, he also inherited the fault of his master, Mu Shehu, and was immediately set ablaze by Gan Chengjia He said: "You can predict whether Mr. Su will succeed in cultivation? I put my words here, and I said that if he can succeed in cultivation, he will succeed in cultivation."

Si Ming Xiaoxian: "Mr. Yunli said that Mr. Su can do it, so Mr. Su can do it!"

Except for two people from Si Ming Wonderland, the people present didn't know the relationship between Si Ming and mortal Ming Tu, so Quan Dang Yunli uttered a baseless lie.

Su Tongzhi is not cultivating immortals, but Yunyao forced him to form a golden pill in order to fulfill his promise to Yunli and broaden his circle of scholars.Otherwise, even if Su Tong's aptitude in this area is not high, with his hardworking heart like when he was studying, he would not have only cultivated three levels of spiritual power in four years.Yun Li also understood this point, but what he said casually seemed to have some kind of strange effect, it hit him hard in the heart, and stimulated him to have the idea of ​​leading Su Tong to the side of a true immortal cultivator.

Yunyao can write about Yu Bosheng, why can't he write about Su Tong who ascends to immortality?He is the commanding officer, Su Tong's commanding officer.Although ordinary people's lives are full of twists and turns and unpredictable changes, but if Si Mingxian can't do it, who else can drive their fate to a reasonable ideal.Even if Su Tong's ambition is clear, can he fully grasp the reins of his destiny?

Just as Yunli was thinking about it, the butcher returned to Gan Cheng's family and said, "Your surname is Gan, do you know what kind of person Su Gongzi is? Su Gongzi is currently crowned as a double-ranked scholar in the Shuzhou Imperial Examination, but his name has been revealed in front of the current Shengshang." That's right, you actually... 呵—"

Hearing something different, everyone turned to the butcher.

The butcher showed pain on his face, and fell to the ground as if his leg bones had been pulled away.The sharp-eyed people caught a shadow passing by with their eyes, and the butcher was suddenly attacked by the shadow, and his ankles were torn to pieces of blood before he fell down.Grinding his teeth and taking a few breaths, the butcher sat on the ground, tore off some clothes, and tied them on the wound that looked like he was scratched by sharp claws.

The butcher waited for a while before he had the strength to curse, "What kind of shit is that?"

Siming Xiaoxian: "Wild dog?"

Gan Chengjia: "There are indeed a lot of wild dogs on this mountain. If you don't want to be bitten, let me go down. I will smoke them with grass." Yun Li would not believe that the surname Gan was so kind. Cheng Jia, sure enough, found that Gan Cheng's dishonest heart was betrayed by his own gray and pale face.Yun Li patted Su Tong and Si Ming Xiaoxian on the shoulders: "Go and see."

The three of Yunli chased the black shadow, Gan Chengjia chased Yunli, and the butcher dragged his injured foot to chase Gan Chengjia with his wife.In this way, everyone formed a "mutually promoting" formation, and rushed to the windless and automatic grass and trees at the fastest speed.

The shadow ran so fast that everyone could only vaguely discern the characteristics of its limbs landing on the ground.

The black shadow rushed to a direction that was not good for it.The further he ran, the deeper the grass, the more cluttered the branches, the black shadow stumbling, the speed gradually slowed down, and there was no longer a series of afterimages brought out when he fled.

Su Tong said in a deep voice, "Like a human being."

Everyone paused subconsciously, and at the same time, the shadow disappeared.

Yunli came to his senses and said, "There's a hole in front."

"Shadow" fell into the pit.

Yun Li pushed aside the blades of grass and took a closer look. There was a not-so-shallow pothole in front of him. A shovel was stuck in the soil beside the pothole.After a moment of silence, the sound of slamming came from the cave, which attracted everyone to come closer and look down.

There are "people" in the cave.

The "shadow" woman who fell in looked like a woman with loose hair and dead gray skin. At this time, she was looking up at the sky with wide-eyed and dislocated eyes, scratching the wall of the cave and trying to climb up.It uses both hands and feet, and its limbs are twisted, like a shriveled spider without legs.Next to the shovel was a pile of poorly colored soil, and the hole was obviously newly dug.

Yun Li turned to Gan Cheng's family: "Did you dig it?"

Unexpectedly, Gan Chengjia knelt down.

The butcher's wife murmured in a low voice, with a tentative tone: "Gan Sang?"

Gan Chengjia scrambled to the entrance of the cave and stuck his head in: "Are you awake? Sonny, you are awake...don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid...don't be afraid..."

I don't know who the Gancheng family found and what kind of magic they used to "revitalize" the dead body.However, the thing in the hole looks ignorant at first glance, and if it crawls out, it may hurt people.

Si Ming Xiaoxian dragged Qian Cheng's family away: "It's so close, do you still want your head?"

Gan Chengjia exerted great strength, wishing he could break free from Siming Xiaoxian and jump into the entrance of the cave.Looking at him like that, he probably felt that jumping in and being killed by his "resurrected" daughter was the best destination in life.Yun Li thought for a while, and thought that it was not good to let Gan Cheng's family commit suicide, so he helped Siming Xiaoxian to catch the madman surnamed Gan.

No, the female corpse in the cave seems to have found a suitable support, and with a clever use of strength, it was easily kicked out of the cave.

Unfortunately for the butcher, he was tricked by the female corpse again. The cloth strips wrapping the wound were removed, and the female corpse began to suck on his ankle with relish.The butcher's wife screamed in fright, picked up the shovel and stabbed.This sturdy woman had amazing potential, she slashed and successfully stabbed the painless dead body back into the hole.

Gan Chengjia kept shouting "Sang'er, Sang'er", and the atmosphere was inexplicably saddened by his trembling voice.

The butcher's wife fumbled around for a while, and finally raised a stone that could only be held firmly with both arms, staggeringly holding the stone, as if to smash it into the hole.

Yun Li couldn't tell the reason, subconsciously stopped and said, "Don't!"
