Huo Xiao's expression froze suddenly, he looked at Lu Ying with a look of surprise, and asked, "What's ?????"

"Earthworms, after wrapping them in prepared powder, they are fried, they are quite fragrant!" Lu Ying said indifferently.

Earthworms, earthworms!!!!!

Suddenly, a slimy, black thing crawled through Huo Xiao's mind.

At this moment, Huo Xiao wanted to die. Put down the fried earthworm and rush out with a puff of smoke.

Lu Ying sneered and said, "Girl!"

Then, there was a frantic vomiting sound outside.

When Huo Xiao came in again, he still looked human, but his face was too pale. Huo Xiao walked up to Lu Ying again and said, "You lied to me!"

Lu Ying still said indifferently: "That's right!"

Huo Xiao closed his eyes and took a deep breath to stabilize his emotions. Then he asked, "What the hell is this???"

"Centipede !!"

"Centipede???"

"There are so many feet, you can see it if you look closely!!"

Huo Xiao immediately picked up another one and looked at it carefully, even though it was covered in powder, he could still distinguish that there were many feet. Huo Xiaochang breathed a sigh of relief, and then directly stuffed the fried centipede into his mouth, eating it with relish. While eating by yourself, continue to feed Lu Ying.

Aren't centipedes disgusting??????

Then, Lu Ying asked, "Did you find anything over there?"

Huo Xiaodao: "I turned over the missing case files that have not been closed for nearly eight years, a total of fifty-four cases, including twenty-six cases of people under the age of eighteen, half of men and half of women, according to the records of the case file, four of them are mentally incomplete, after the family took them out, they didn't pay attention, they got lost, and the others disappeared suddenly, and there was no trace, in the east of the city, in the south, in the west, and in the north of the city. I compared their dates of birth and their birthdays, and there was nothing in common with them, so I should be able to rule out the possibility of using boys and girls to practice evil methods. However, those under the age of eighteen, except for those who are mentally imperfect, have one thing in common. ”

"What is it?" Lu Ying seemed to be interested.

Huo Xiaodao: "All of them come from ordinary families, with no prominent background or outstanding background. ”

Lu Ying said: "In other words, the murderer is selective. He understands that this is the world of the powerful, and when the weak are lost and dead, not many people care about it. Or, he is a powerful man himself, and as long as he does not cause a big riot, he can control it. ”

Huo Xiao nodded and continued: "In addition, I also found that the earliest of these twenty-six missing cases was in July three years ago, thirty months from now. Almost one case per month. ”

Lu Ying said: "If there is an average of one missing case per month, it will be empty for four months. ”

Huo Xiao said: "The empty ones are June and August last year, as well as July and November of the year before last. ”

Lu Ying said: "In addition to the four mentally incomplete, what about two people over twenty years old???

Huo Xiaodao: "Perhaps, June three years ago was not the first case, but the family did not report the case. ”

Lu Ying said: "Although your speculation is reasonable, have you ever thought that these thirty-two corpses are not all missing people in this category?"

At this time, Huo Xiao said with an affirmative face: "No, so far, there must only be thirty-two people." ”

Lu Ying's face was full of doubts: "Why are you so sure?"

Huo Xiaodao: "You have also been to the barren mountain where the body was found, such a high mountain, such a hidden earth pit, if it is not a coincidence, it is impossible to be found." The murderer must have been very relieved about the place where the body was dumped. So, I prefer to believe that he will throw all the bones there. Of course, what I am saying now is still speculation and cannot be proven. Tell me about you, did you find anything?"

Lu Ying said: "I just checked all the corpses, except for some of the heads, the other skeletons are there, most of the wrist bones are deformed in the direction of the palm, they should have been hung for a long time before they died." ”

Huo Xiaodao: "This also shows that the missing person was not killed, but abused for a period of time." ”

Lu Ying said: "In addition, I used a silver needle to examine the soil embedded in the bones, and found no poisoning. ”

Huo Xiao said: "Maybe it's been exposed for a long time and washed away by the rain?"

Lu Ying said: "This is very likely. ”

Huo Xiao said: "If you are poisoned, will it cause the bones to change color?"

Lu Ying said: "It is possible, but this situation is very rare, and there are only a few known poisons that cause bone discoloration." If there is a discoloration of the bones, it will be easy to do. ”

Huo Xiaodao: "I don't know much about the world of poison, so I had a question from the beginning: Is there no poison in this river and lake that turns bones?

Lu Ying said: "Of course there is." It's just that the bone poison kills people invisibly, which can be described as assassinating and killing gods. Among the rivers and lakes, it is estimated that only the Poison Emperor Lan Miaoer can match this artifact. If the bone poison appears in the rivers and lakes, it is not difficult to find out the murderer by tracing the source first, and then following the vine to find the murderer. Therefore, the risk of using bone poison is not small. ”

Huo Xiao said: "However, although we have no evidence to prove the previous speculation, we are at least seven points sure. So, let's say there is a disappearance every month. We haven't received any reports of disappearances this month, so the most recent death was last month. Judging from the characteristics of these bones, they were all dead for several years. It's only been a month or two, how could a corpse decompose to such an extent???"

Lu Ying said: "You guessed right, the corpse must have been disposed of before it was transported up the mountain." Carrying a corpse on a mountain like that, even if the light work is very good, it is more troublesome, and if it is just a skeleton, it will be much easier. Come and see!!"

As he spoke, Lu Ying held up the head of a corpse, pointed to the position of the back of the head, and said, "See, there is a small trace of damage here." ”

Huo Xiao looked at the small scar carefully, which was a small trace of damage, and immediately had an answer in his heart, and said, "Caused by knocking on the stone." ”

Lu Ying said: "You can take a look at this again." Lu Ying picked up another corpse, this time it was a backbone, and it also had the same scars.

Lu Ying showed Huo Xiao several cases of such a situation. What does this mean??

Subsequently, Lu Ying said: "Most of the bones have slight injuries to their backs and skulls, which are caused by the impact of small stones in the pit when they are thrown into the pit. When the bones were cleaned up at the scene, it was found that there were rubble blocks underneath some of the bones. If it weren't for the skeleton that was thrown down, there would not have been so many traces. ”

Huo Xiao smiled lightly: "It seems that we have a direction." ”

Lu Ying said: "There are several ways to turn into a corpse, the first is a corpse water similar to bone poison, which is definitely inferior to the former in terms of medicinal properties, and it can only turn into flesh, not bones." Compared to bone poison, it is indeed easier to get corpse water. But in view of the fact that the bones have to be thrown after the corpse, the poison of the corpse will attach to the bones, which is extremely difficult to remove, and the poison of the corpse can be melted away with clothes, if it were me, I would definitely not use corpse water. ”

Huo nodded and said, "Yes, I accidentally turned myself into bones!"

Lu Ying continued: "The second type is corpse eaters, which generally only appear in places where corpses are piled up. Of course, there are also people who have raised corpse eating insects. ”

Huo Xiao said: "Miao old monster. But if this matter has anything to do with Miao Laowei, I won't believe it if I am killed. ”

Lu Ying said: "So, the focus is on the third kind: a quiet palm." That is, the corpse palm. ”

Huo Xiao said: "Thousands of swords and corpses are still there, and there is no trace of Yu You's palm." The fanatic's faint palm can instantly turn the body into a pool of blood, which is more powerful than Lan Miao'er's bone poison. But among the rivers and lakes, the only one who cultivates the secluded palm to reach the holy realm is himself. Among the remaining cultivators, if they can achieve the transformation of flesh, they will be considered a great achievement. In my impression, there are no more than ten people who have cultivated the corpse palm. The highest skill should have reached the spiritual mirror."

Lu Ying said: "This is our only clue at the moment. ”

Huo Xiao said: "Then start here." ”
