"......" Facing Jiang Yao's questioning, Chen Siyi was unusually silent, she has always been sharp-toothed, she didn't argue this time, just stared at the footprints on the ground with a serious face, not knowing what she was thinking.

"What, don't you want to say it? How about my guess?" Jiang Yao observed Chen Siyi's strange expression, and some kind of assumption had already formed in his mind.

"This house is not a cemetery but it is so 'dead', which means that there was a murder not long ago, this is one of them; I also investigated a little bit of the relevant information here before I came here, and there is no news of any related murder in Weiyang recently, which means that you have concealed this murder, this is the second thing; the murder case was not informed to the police, but through the commission of 'Baoyan Pavilion' The reward for finding someone to solve this case privately shows that this murder case is very weird, and there are even some ulterior insiders, if it is known to the outside world, it may cause trouble to you, this is the third. ”

Jiang Yao looked at Chen Siyi's increasingly ugly face and continued.

"Based on the above inference, I guess that the 'ancient dry corpse' entrusted to you is actually a forged statement by you, but the so-called 'corpse' corpse does exist, but this corpse is not an ancient corpse, but a corpse that you knew before your death, but died unexpectedly......"

Jiang Yao's gaze swept over Ah Xing, the latter was startled, looked at Chen Siyi with a wink, and then looked at the footprints by the well, looking like his mind had been peeped through, and this performance confirmed Jiang Yao's guess even more.

"Hmph, the corpse that 'died unexpectedly'? Do you want to say that this 'corpse' is the so-called deceased of the murder that we concealed?" Chen Siyi raised his eyes, and finally opened his mouth with a sneer. "Judging that we have a murder case based on what 'dead air' alone, do you think the police will believe it?"

"Then it's better to call the police and let the police investigate, there will always be clues. Jiang Yao smiled and said meaningfully. "I heard that the Chen family medicine store is doing quite a lot of business in the society, and it seems that it is about to go public, if the news of being searched by the police breaks out at this juncture, I'm afraid it won't be good for you, right?"

"You, how dare you threaten me!?" Chen Siyi raised his eyebrows, and the cold light in his eyes could almost kill. "Don't think I'm going to eat you!"

"Threats don't count, I'm just stating the facts. Jiang Yao shrugged and said. "In the final analysis, I'm here to help you solve your troubles, not only for the precious medicinal herb you have put a bounty on, but also to understand the 'truth' of the so-called 'corpse transformation'. ”

Jiang Yao paused, raised his eyes to look at Chen Siyi, and said seriously.

"I once saw a little girl who 'came back from the dead', but it was the beginning of a tragedy. In order to avoid a similar tragedy happening again, it is important to me that I know the secret behind this incident. I know you don't trust my abilities right now, but please believe that I'm not a fool who will take my life on the line, and that I will find out the truth in my own way. ”

"......" Chen Siyi looked back at Jiang Yao and fell silent again. For some reason, although the man in front of him seemed to be ordinary, his clear eyes revealed a rare firmness, and that firmness was obviously out of some kind of "belief". For Chen Siyi, she has not seen this kind of "belief" in the eyes of others for a long time, whether it is in life or on the business battlefield...... It was precisely because of this rare "belief" that Chen Siyi's cold eyes were a little shaken for the first time, and the piercing chill in his expression gradually dissolved.

"Okay...... Since you want to be involved in this case so much, then I'll give you a chance. After thinking for a moment, Chen Siyi finally sighed and looked away.

"Ah Xing, come and talk to them. ”

Chen Siyi shook his head, gestured to Ah Xing on the side, and then turned his back, as if he didn't intend to stop it any longer.

"Yes, Miss. Ah Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and after thinking about it for a while, he looked at Jiang Yao and Tao Tao, and opened his mouth carefully:

"Hmm...... How can I say it, you have already guessed that there was indeed a murder in this mansion not long ago, and it was Wang Le, the director of our Weiyang branch, who died. One night a month ago, Director Wang seemed to have drunk too much, and as a result, he accidentally fell into the well, and when we found it the next day, he was ......."

Ah Xing said, glancing at the well in the middle of the backyard with palpitations, obviously that was the location of the incident.

"At that time, after we salvaged the body, we also thought about calling the police, but we didn't expect that in just half a day, the body was gone! The whole house was searched, there was no shadow, and we had monitoring at the entrance and exit to confirm that the body was not taken out of the door, so it disappeared out of thin air......

Ah Xing made a bitter face and continued.

"There was no case without a body, so we discussed it internally and decided to find the body first. But within a few days, something started to go wrong in the house......"

"Something is wrong, can it be ......" Jiang Yao realized something, and looked at the footprints by the well with a complicated face.

"Yes, the corpse is still in the house, it's just ...... 'corpse'. Ah Xing seemed to remember something terrible, and his body trembled slightly.

"Since Director Wang's accident, we have blocked this ancient well, for fear that the same thing will happen again, but even so, we still heard movement on the side of the ancient well several times at night, and also saw a figure very similar to Director Wang haunting the house, which made people panic, and many guys were scared away. Later, the old man of the Chen family heard about this and personally came to Weiyang from the headquarters to investigate, but on the night of check-in, he saw the shadow of Director Wang standing outside the window and staring at him, and he was so frightened that the old man had a heart attack and was hospitalized......

"It seems that what you wrote in the power of attorney for the 'Baoyan Pavilion' is not entirely fake, it is indeed a corpse with a 'fraudulent corpse', but it is not an 'ancient dry corpse'......" Jiang Yao pondered. "However, since you are also a medicine merchant who has been in contact with the demon world, haven't you thought that the so-called 'corpse transformation' is actually a situation where you use demon qi to manipulate corpses?"

"Of course, we also thought of this, when the lord came here, he also came with the idea of finding out whether it was a demon, but the actual situation is that whether it was the scene where the corpse shadow had been haunted, or the night that scared the lord, no residual demonic energy was detected. Ah Xing sighed and said.

"There's really nothing we can do, it's not something we or the human police can handle. In desperation, we can only find someone to solve the problem through the "Baoyan Pavilion" in the form of a transaction reward, but we are also afraid that the exposure of Director Wang's matter will cause some unnecessary troubles in the society, so we have entrusted the "ancient corpse" with the origin of the "ancient corpse......"

"Isn't there any demonic energy left...... It's weird, if it's controlled by demonic energy, it should leave traces anyway. Jiang Yao frowned slightly, turned around and approached the footprints by the well again, and after observing for a moment, he turned his inquiring gaze to the gluttony beside him.

"Indeed, as they just said, there is no demonic spirit left behind this time. Tao Tao shook his head, as if he knew what Jiang Yao wanted to ask.

In this case...... It doesn't seem to be the kind of situation where the demonic energy is used as a puppet line to manipulate the corpse. Could it be that it's really the same as Ah Li at the beginning, because of the 'soul binding technique'......?

Jiang Yao muttered in his heart and turned to Ah Xing again.

"Before and after that Director Wang's accident, did anything strange happen around him?"

"Strange ......?" Ah Xing scratched his hair, thought about it for a moment, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and quickly raised his head. "Ah...... Speaking of which, not long before Director Wang's accident, he did encounter something in the Miaozhai Mountains. ”

"Miaozhai Mountain, that is, where the Miao people live?"

"Yes, our Chen Family Medicine Bank collects precious medicinal herbs, and often sets up branches in the mountainous areas, and regularly sends men to go deep into the mountains to buy medicinal materials from the locals. Shortly before the accident, Director Wang learned that a precious medicinal herb appeared in the Miaozhai Mountains near Weiyang, so he took me to buy it, but I suddenly encountered an accident on the way......"

"Accidents?"

"Hmm...... It's not so much an accident as a small storm. Ah Xing hesitated. "When I found him at the foot of the mountain, I found that his spirit seemed to be a little wrong, and he looked very scared, saying that he had seen a headless corpse in the woods, and ...... The headless corpse can still move......"

"Headless...... The Walking Corpse??" Jiang Yao glanced at Ah Xing suspiciously, always feeling that the development of this plot was becoming more and more like a strange story. "Did he read it wrong?"

"I thought so at the time, and he didn't mention it again, and his spirit seemed to be back to normal, so I didn't pay much attention to it, who knew that he would ...... in a few days" Ah Xing lowered his eyes and didn't continue.

"Is there a connection between this and today's ......?"

Jiang Yao muttered, his eyes swept over the wellhead sealed by the manhole cover, and after looking around the wellhead, he returned to the pair of footprints floating with corpse wax, and he suddenly found that there were no other marks on the side of the well except for these pair of footprints, as if the corpse suddenly fell from the sky and evaporated on the spot, which was completely beyond the cognition of ordinary people.

"Speaking of which, Ah Xing, after you found the shadow by the well, did you see where the shadow went?" Jiang Yao asked.

"No, no...... I was so frightened that I turned around and was about to run, but I accidentally fell down. Ah Xing covered his sore knee, looking like he wanted to cry without tears. "But when I got up and looked back, the shadow was gone, and then Wu Lao Liu heard my shout and rushed out, but there was no shadow at that time......

"First, the corpse was resurrected, and then it disappeared in situ...... I always feel a little strange, what do you think about this?" Jiang Yao muttered in a low voice, and cast his gaze on the gluttony beside him.

"Hehe, don't worry about disappearing in place or anything for the time being, I only know that if that Director Wang just hung up a month ago, it would be impossible to leave such traces. Gluttony said, pointing to the two footprints on the ground covered with corpse wax.

"For an adult's corpse to form corpse wax, not only has certain requirements for the environment, but it also takes at least a year to form in terms of time, which means that the guy who died a month ago will not produce corpse wax no matter how 'corpse changes'. ”

"Wait, what do you mean!......?" Jiang Yao suddenly realized something, and his face changed slightly.

"That's right. Tao Tao shook his finger and said as if he had a deep meaning.

"If the footprints were really left by a corpse, then they were in this house...... There was another 'corpse' corpse. ”
