Entering the wax moon, the weather is getting colder and colder, the lake has formed a thick layer of ice, there are naughty children like to skate in groups, frozen hands and feet are red and never tired, adults are always on guard, for fear that the child accidentally falls into the water.

But there are no precautions, but they can't prevent the naughty mischievous children from being mischievous, they can always find a suitable excuse to sneak out, and then skate onto the ice and have a good time.

Even if someone accidentally stepped on the ice, they just fell in and got wet, they had a way to climb up, and they didn't care, and they went home and were scolded by their parents a few times, and they still went out happily next time.

It seems that in the eyes of children, there is no lesson, and they always do the same thing over and over again.

Shadowless stared at a cracked ice on the surface of the lake and was stunned, when suddenly the voice of an old man's yin and yang strange aura came from behind him.

"Quanzhi's three rice buckets, don't be afraid, they can't set off any waves, I'm only worried about those Jin Wei, they have always solved cases quickly, this time although we are fully prepared, but we are also afraid that there will be some mistakes.

The ten Golden Guards have not yet been found, and their hiding place must be found, and only when we have all the movements of the enemy can we have nothing to fear.

Since Master Hou sent you over, he took a fancy to your ability, he wanted you to contribute, not to let you follow along. ”

The old man who spoke was one of the four old men beside Princess Haining, Eagle Lao, who was originally the most unaccustomed to Gong Xiru, this time, if it wasn't for Princess Haining's request, he wouldn't agree to come without a shadow anyway. For him, Gong Xiru and his people are invisible enemies.

It's just that Princess Haining is convinced. He couldn't help it even if he was suspicious, so he could only stare at it secretly.

Shadowless looked back with a blank face, "The three of you can't find anyone, why do you pin all your hopes on me?" Could it be that I alone can defeat the three of you? ”

The other two old men who came with Eagle Lao, the evil old man and the ghost elder, are the most powerful people around Princess Haining, and these three people. looked down on Wuying, and along the way, he didn't give him a face.

But there is one thing they can't compare. That is, if there is a relationship with or without people, he can turn a blind eye, such as now, if he is slightly provocative about Eagle Lao. He ignored it. He didn't even bother to turn around and leave.

"Stop me." The eagle said angrily, "I am polite to you for the sake of the princess, if you are so ignorant, don't blame the three of me for bullying you a child." ”

Wuying still looked at him indifferently, "You're welcome." ”

"You-" The Eagle Elder stomped his foot angrily, facing such a cold wood, coercion and temptation could not be helped, which made him very angry in his heart.

But the distrust of the shadowless. Eagle Elder had to keep up, this way. He would hardly let the latter out of his sight, including letting Wuying go to check Jin Wei's whereabouts, also to test the latter.

If you can find it, it's naturally good, if you can't find it, then at least you can guarantee that he won't do anything, for some reason, Boss Eagle feels that this shadowless is the same as his master, and he can't be trusted.

Eagle Lao and the other two old men were staying in an inn under Zhu Hua's arrangement, and no one knew the whereabouts of the three except Zhu Hua, and as for the others, they were staring at Quanzhi all the time.

And since they know that they are being watched, they will inevitably have to make a show, during the day, Quanzhi and Kong Cao are running around in the county to "investigate clues", and at night, they are drinking wine, eating meat and watching beauties sing and dance in the restaurant arranged by Zhu Hua, which does not look like they are here to investigate the case, but to have fun.

This night, after eating a meal, Quan Zhi got up and prepared to go back to the inn, Kong Chai and Cao Zi naturally had to follow, and after the three of them were sent back to the inn by Zhu Hua's people, they were not happy, and ordered another table of wine and food to eat in the room.

The wind outside was blowing and hula, Kong Chai closed the doors and windows, and the reflection of the three people on the door made the overseers relax, and they shrank into a ball in the cold and squatted on the tree to take a nap.

In the room, Kong Chai poured wine for Quanzhi and whispered: "My lord, did Jin Wei really say that we will meet here tonight?" If I look around here, someone will be watching, and we will meet under the noses of others, and we will not be discovered, right? ”

Cao Zi drank it all with his wine glass, and there was some anger in his tone: "I really have never handled such an aggrieved case in my life, and my every move is monitored, how can we transfer troops?" ”

Quan Zhi frowned and said: "In any case, as long as I receive news tonight, I must set off tomorrow to transfer troops." Otherwise, the three of you and I will only be ready to rot here. Do you think they're going to let us go? ”

Kong Chai snorted angrily: "This group of bitches raised things, if they are in Beijing, I see where they can be arrogant, it is really far away from the emperor of the mountain, I look at Zhu Hua, he doesn't take us in his eyes at all, he is afraid that he will be the king of heaven." ”

Cao Zi sneered: "It's too naïve for you to expect them to be respectful to us." It was already good that he didn't poison us directly in this inn. ”

"Shhhhh

The three of them held their breath and listened attentively, and the whistle that came and went was the whistle that the three of them had been waiting for.

Allwinner was about to ask his entourage to open the window, but the door was gently pushed open.

"How many guests would like to refill the wine?" Xiao Er came in with a pot of wine.

Cao Zi was about to refuse to say no, but Quanzhi waved his hand to signal him to shut up.

The two people at the table were stunned, and then they realized that this little two was Jin Wei, and they were all happy, so it shouldn't be easy to be discovered.

Jin Wei did not close the door when he entered, but opened the door widely, came to the table with his head down and the wine tray, respectfully put down the wine jug and said: "This is the warm wine that the three want, the three drink it slowly, if necessary, call a small one." ”

After speaking, without waiting for the three of them to ask, he respectfully lowered his head and exited the door, closing the door by the way.

"W-that's it?" Cao Zi asked in disbelief.

Kong Chai opened the wine jug and smelled it, it was indeed wine, he looked at Quan Zhi puzzled: "What does he mean?" Isn't it going to hand over to us? Why leave a jug of wine and leave? Nothing was said, what do we do next? ”

Allwinner was silent for a moment. sat down again and said: "There must be someone guarding the back window, he is right to go to the front door, and it is natural to pretend to be a little second to send us wine." Since let's drink slowly, let's drink it. ”

As he spoke, he really poured a full glass of wine for Kong Chai and Cao Zi, but he poured it after just three glasses, and after the last point was poured out, a small bead rolled out.

The faces of the three of them moved slightly, and Quan Zhi hurriedly twisted the beads. Seeing the small characters engraved on it, I stared at it for a while before I finally understood the meaning of it. Xi said: "Quickly let your respective people prepare and prepare to transfer troops." ”

Kong Chai took the beads and looked at them, and said happily: "It's okay to wait, I'll say that if there is no movement." I can't stand it anymore. ”

Kong Cao and the others got up and went back to their houses. I started planning to go out and transfer troops.

Although there are people watching, the three of them are not stupid, and it is not a problem to let the entourage dress up and get out of the city, and in the next two days, the three of them waited for the arrival of reinforcements with peace of mind.

But on the night of the second day when Jin Wei delivered the news, it happened.

And this matter has to start with Zhu Hua's yamen.

said that Zhu Hua was flirting with his concubine and drinking, and suddenly saw the shadows of the branches outside the window. The wind-blown windows crackled, and the roof squirmed as if something had crawled over it.

The candles in the room flickered in the wind. Before Zhu Hua could order someone to close the window, it was extinguished with a pop, and the room was dark, and the concubine was so frightened that she hid in Zhu Hua's arms.

Zhu Hua was displeased and called the attendant outside the door to light the fire, but he shouted several times, and he didn't listen to anyone's answer, he was angry in his heart, and had to get up to find the fire by himself.

"Huh-" There was a sudden piercing thunder in the sky, and then silver-white lightning like a knife slashed down from the sky, and the bright white silver light illuminated the night, although it was only a few breaths, but Zhu Hua saw a terrifying scene.

Under the lightning, a group of "people" with white faces and hair scattered stood motionless, dozens of pairs of eyes staring at Zhu Hua intently.

"Ahh

"Come on, come on." Zhu Hua was so frightened that he stepped back, but he was tripped by the stool at his feet, and he fell down with a thud, but when he fell to the ground, he saw that there was also a ghost under the table, only half of his body, spitting out a long tongue, and staring at Zhu Hua with green eyes.

It was relatively close, this person Zhu Hua saw his appearance clearly, but after seeing it clearly, his face turned even paler, because this person was none other than Mrs. Li from Songyang Village, who was also a person he knew, and a person who should be in the underworld.

Zhu Hua screamed and called the name of his concubine, but the concubine was already frightened, and he hurriedly stumbled and tried to get up, but Mrs. Li's dry hands grabbed his ankles.

The cold touch made Zhu Hua's hairs stand on end, as if death was on the verge of death, dragging him straight to hell.

Mrs. Li kept blood and tears, and her mouth was open and closed, as if she was talking about her death.

Zhu Hua trembled all over and grabbed a kick on the table, but when he looked up, what he saw was that the table, the beams, the ground, and the windows were crawling everywhere, and they looked worse than the other.

Under such a strong stimulus, he finally couldn't support it anymore, and his eyes rolled straight and fell down.

As he fell, everything in the room quickly returned to calm.

The next day, Zhu Hua woke up in the biting cold.

The moment he opened his eyes, he shivered with coldness, and his brain instantly cleared.

Thinking of the scene he saw last night, he felt a chill in his back, which frightened him to sit up and get up in a hurry, but just after he stood up, his feet slipped and he fell back.

Hearing only a click, he looked down and saw that there was already a clear horizontal line under his buttocks.

Why are you on the ice?

Zhu Hua looked at the white expanse in astonishment, if it was in previous years, the ice surface would not be so complete, because the naughty children had already torn the surface apart.

But now, there is only one place on the ice that is broken, and that one is broken, Zhu Hua knows that because it is still the ice cave he asked people to dig, those dead people in Wu County are thrown into the ice cave, that is to say, under the ice here, there is already a lake full of dead people.

He stared at the ice and didn't react, and seemed to see a pair of eyes in his eyes, no, two, ten, many pairs of eyes, staring at him in a daze.

Zhu Hua was so frightened that he screamed, and ran towards the shore with a roll.

"There's a ghost—there's a ghost—" he screamed all the way to the county seat.

This lake is in Songyang Village, connecting the head of the village to the end of the village, and from the end of the village to the river farther away, Zhu Hua doesn't know why he is in Songyang Village, but he can't forget what he saw last night, those people are all people from the village, but now they are a dead corpse.

Zhu Hua ran back to the county office in a delirium, and as soon as he entered the house, he hid himself in the quilt and did not listen to the inquiries and other words of his subordinates.

When Elder Ying and the other two old men came to the county office, they saw such a situation: Zhu Hua curled up in the corner with dull eyes, and only muttered "There are ghosts" in his mouth, and he didn't answer any other questions.

"What the hell is going on? Yesterday was fine, but what's wrong today, could it be that you fell into evil overnight? Elder Eagle was a little angry.

The attendant shook his head puzzled: "The villain doesn't know, I didn't see the master when I got up in the morning, and I was about to send someone to look for it, but the master ran in from the outside naked."

There was a fear on that face that the villain had never seen before, as if he had seen a ghost alive.

How did the villain ask, the old man didn't answer, he was like this all morning, he didn't eat or do anything, the villain estimated that he was afraid that he would see something terrible, and he was looking for a doctor to come and see, and prescribe some concentrating medicine or something. ”

Elder Ying waved his hand to let him stand back, and then forcibly pulled Zhu Hua out of the corner.

"No—let me go, let me go, don't look for me, I didn't kill them, it's them, don't look for me—ah—" Zhu Hua screamed and punched and kicked, unable to survive.

When the evil old man heard his words, his brows frowned slightly, and he stepped forward to slap Zhu Hua's neck, and the latter's eyes rolled, and he fell unconscious.

The ghost elder stepped forward and wondered, "What's wrong?" Could it really be that you have fallen into evil? We don't even know or say anything about this guy, and he almost said something he shouldn't say, what should I do? ”

The evil old man was the most cruel, and snorted coldly: "What else should I do, since this guy said something that shouldn't be said, what should he do if he is left to do it, he can be killed directly, anyway, it is not impossible to hold one more corpse in the lake." ”

"No." Ying Lao was more sensible: "He is the county commander of Wu County, and there is a place where he can be used, he is here, then this Wu County is our final say, if he dies, the Dog Emperor will definitely send someone again, and it will take a lot of effort when the time comes." ”

The ghost old man was puzzled: "Then what now?" Do you want to check, how can a good person suddenly go crazy? ”

"Check, naturally check." Eagle Lao looked around with a gloomy face and said in a deep voice, "Where did that little thing go?" ”

The evil old man knew that he was talking about no shadow, shook his head and said: "I didn't see a figure early in the morning, don't worry, he is not our opponent, even if he is bad, he will not be able to succeed." ”

The ghost old man said impatiently: "Now it doesn't matter where that kid is, let's check what is going on with him first, I always feel unsteady in my heart, maybe it was Jin Wei's ghost." (To be continued.) )
