Chapter 146: Niutou Mountain
Fang Xile rushed to Yizhuang while listening to Bao Chun's report.
"The deceased is Chang Fourteen of Shouyizhuang, who died on the mountain road outside Yizhuang, the death is extremely terrifying, and the corpse is gnawed and bitten, it must not be done by people!"
"Is there yin?"
Bao Chun has been docking with Xuanyin Division, so Fang Xile gave him some Yin Qi talismans.
"It's tested," Bao Chun said with a smile, "Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to bother Lord Lao Fang." The yin qi was very weak, and later it was completely dispersed. ”
Fang Xile nodded, the yin qi was very weak, and that eighty percent was a little ghost.
"By the way, there are also traces of gnawing of the dead people in Yizhuang," Bao Chun said with a sigh: "These ghosts really don't even let go of the dead." ”
When the two came to Yizhuang, Chang Shishi's body had been cleaned up and put aside, covered with a white cloth.
Fang Xile opened the white cloth, and there was a sudden sound of vomiting behind her, and she couldn't help frowning.
This can no longer be called a corpse, but a pile of rotten flesh attached to the bone stick, but something can still be seen.
The ghost has a lot of strength, and directly tore Chang Fourteen apart, divided it into several portions, and was also a very picky eater, only eating soft internal organs and chewy muscles, and avoiding fat and tendons.
Fang Xile glanced at Yu Fei, a member of the reserve who came with her, and said, "Just get used to it." ”
This sentence made Yuffie no longer hold back his stomach, and ran to the side and vomited.
Bringing the reservists out to carry out the mission is not to let them do anything, the main thing is to see ghosts, most of the ghosts are terrifying-looking, if they are so scared that they can't even raise the courage to fight, there is only a dead end left.
Fang Xile shook his head, and thought of the three people who went to Niutou Mountain to perform the mission, and he didn't know what happened to the three of them.
Because no one came to Yizhuang, the site was well preserved.
There is no sign of forced entry in Yizhuang, only the thatch on the roof has been removed into a large hole, and it is presumably from above that the ghost creatures entered.
The lid of the coffin was set aside, and the entire arm of the person in the coffin was gnawed clean.
Suddenly, Fang Xile's eyes fell on something next to the coffin, it was a broom that was so worn out that only one rod remained, and there were some blood stains on one end, and it was deflated, obviously someone had hit something very hard with this broom rod.
There were two kinds of footprints on the ground, one was the size of a normal person wearing shoes, and the other was not wearing shoes, which was obviously much larger than ordinary people.
Fang Xile took the broom rod and entered Chang Fourteen's room, trying to simulate the situation at that time.
It was already late, Chang Fourteen was resting, but he was woken up by a strange sound, he quietly got up, and picked up the most convenient weapon beside him, the broom pole, in the dark.
I opened the door and went through the narrow aisle to the place where the coffin was kept, and the footprints ended there.
Because when he saw the ghost eating the person in the coffin, he was too frightened to move.
Then he was discovered by the ghost, and Chang Shishi tried to resist and hit the ghost with a broom pole.
"How tall is Chang fourteen?"
"It's about the same height as an adult. The little catcher who followed Fang Xile said quickly.
Fang Xile touched the smoothest part of the broom, everyone has some fixed habits, such as some people like to bite when drinking, such as some people tend to land on the ground with their heels when walking, these habits may not be known to them, but they have indeed been following this habit.
So even in the dark, Chang Fourteen would subconsciously take it in the place where he took it most often.
Fang Xile swung his broom pole forward, and the point with blood stains hovered right above the nearest big footprint.
She retracted the broom pole and said to the little catcher, "The ghost is seven feet tall. ”
It is equivalent to about 2.4 meters, which is considered a clue.
"Let's go and see it. ”
"This is the scene of the crime, there are some broken branches around, and it is clear that the deceased had a fight with the ghost before he died. ”
Bao Chun explained: "But it rained yesterday, and there were not many traces left. ”
The climate in Nishikawa-gun is warm, and there is no snow even in winter.
Since the rain washed the ground without leaving any traces, there were many broken trees around it, Fang Xile looked at the broken place and raised his eyebrows.
She reached for the tattered fabric that hung from the branches, the dirt that had stuck to it had a peculiar smell.
Fang Xile's brows furrowed, originally she was still puzzled, ghosts are very sensitive to the smell of living people, why didn't they eat Chang Fourteen in Yizhuang, but chased outside, if so, it would be right.
"Bao Chun, let the brothers check if anyone has seen a very tall strange man dressed in black. ”
Fang Xile signaled, and Yu Fei immediately took out twenty taels of silver and stuffed it to Bao Chun.
Fang Xile smiled and said: "Bao Chun, you just bring your brothers to the Xuanyin Division, the Xuanyin Division's Yulu is ten times that of your Patrol Division." ”
Bao Chun had a bitter face: "Lord Fang, don't make fun of me, what can I do with this little effort!"
Xuanyin Division?
Resolutely don't go! Do you want to make snacks for ghosts?
Fang Xile is a pity, after working together for so long, Bao Chun is excellent in terms of ability and temperament, but his kung fu is not very good.
In the afternoon of the same day, Bao Chun came to find it, and someone had really seen such a person.
Bao Chun has already brought people in.
It's an old lady.
"You said you saw it?"
"Yes," the old man was a little frightened, since ancient times, the people were not right to officials, and the instinct of seeing the officials was weak: "I was scared when I heard the pigs in the pigsty cry that day, so I went out to have a look, and I saw a tall man in black robes. ”
"And then?"
"He ran away when he saw me!"
Bao Chun shouted in surprise: "Ran away?"
The old man nodded affirmatively: "Well, I turned around and ran." ”
"Did you see the looks?"
The old man shook his head: "No, ah, by the way, I remember that the man's eyes were red. ”
Fang Xile nodded, this is a very important clue, he is tall, eats meat, and his eyes are red, he can almost find out what kind of ghost thing this is, no matter how bad it is, he can narrow down the range.
......
The study of the county king's house
Fang Xile flipped through the information in the study, looking for the information of the ghosts.
Every time she has to go to the county king's mansion to check the news, it is better for her to copy a copy and make a hundred ghost illustrated books, and in the future, everyone in the Xuanyin Division will have a copy, and it will be more convenient to catch ghosts.
The book stops on a page, with several human figures drawn on the picture.
Fang Xile looked at the introduction carefully, frowned, and faintly felt that something was wrong.
Leaving the county king's mansion, Fang Xile hurriedly found Bao Chun.
"Find out who is missing in the county?"
Bao Chun was taken aback.
"Yes," Fang Xile said with certainty, "especially those who have no relatives and friends, and no one will report the disappearance." I'll ask the Scorpion Gang to help me and send some people to search together. ”
Bao Chun breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there were enough people: "Please also give me three days." ”
Three days later, the missing person was mapped and placed on Fang Xile's table.
The map spreads out in a circle, and in the center of the circle is a mountain with three words written on it.
Niutou Mountain!
