Liang Qiu is dead, Liang Qiu Siyan.

Mu Wan had a high fever and lay in bed for more than five days. Seeing that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, flowers were blooming, and plants were growing, she didn't have the opportunity to go out to enjoy it. Shanhai was afraid that her head would burn out because she rarely woke up. Most of the time, Mu Wan clamored to go back, sometimes as if she had already gone back in a dream. Most of those dreams could hear a good ending of a false alarm, and for a few moments, she didn't react, just tears quietly from her closed eyes, sliding down her hot cheeks.

In fact, on the sixth day, her fever had already begun to subside. The innkeeper was worried that it would be tuberculosis or some other plague, and he was afraid of spreading it to other guests. Fortunately, there was an improvement, and he didn't let the shopkeepers rush them away.

They read the letter several times. Reading between the lines, I can be sure that it was indeed written by Chi Li, and there are greetings from Mo Liang and Xiao. The letter made no mention of her mother's reaction, saying only that it was "no big deal." It seems that her mother also knew about her son's death and fell seriously ill because of it. The first letter ended with a "better" return for her mother, who wanted to see her, but the old man said it herself, and it didn't matter if she didn't come back.

Siyan died. Mu Wan's brother died.

It's a sad story. Everyone thought that the ice between the siblings had begun to melt. But I never thought that the flash flood would burst the embankment and sweep away everything, leaving no armor everywhere it went. The accident took away countless possibilities for them.

Or...... Not an accident.

The obituary is very simple, with another person's handwriting on the back, and from the tone of the voice, it was specially noted by Mo Liang. They could almost imagine that after Chi Li, who didn't want Mu Wan to worry too much, packed the letter, Mo Liang quietly took out the obituary and posted a lot of slightly sloppy explanations in the back. According to his character, he may be more willing to tell the truth. Chi Li probably believed that Mu Wan would come back, so she didn't say anything, but Mo Liang didn't think so.

In that remote and impoverished place, Siyan did not die of an infectious disease or a rebel army that resisted—rather, it was impossible to give birth to armed forces in that kind of place. His death seems reasonable, but it is very unreasonable when examined in detail.

He died in an assassination attempt.

Siyan's "home" there was a simple thatched hut, no more luxurious than the villagers. Even this hut is where he works. The inside is very simple, pots and pans, firewood, rice, oil and salt for one person, and there is no broken silver at all. He sent it all to his mother. It is necessary to rule out the possibility of suicide, firstly, because he did not leave a suicide note, and secondly, there is no motive for suicide for the time being - after all, he has lived in this barren place for many years, and he is actually quite harmonious with the local "Diao people".

His body was found during the day, and the villagers found that he had not inspected the spring wheat planted, as usual. At first, people only thought that he was unwell, and it was not until noon that the people in the granary said that he would come to see him if he could not move, but he did not show up, and then said that they would go to his house to take a look. And when he went, he found that he was cold, and he had fallen to the ground, and the ground was covered with congealed blood.

There was a table in the room, but it was a stone that had been moved, and two stools. There were two glasses of water on the table, only the position where he fell, most of the water was drunk, and the other side should have not moved. Since no one saw anyone during the day yesterday, this person should be a "traveler" who "passed by", and when he visited at night, Siyan simply entertained him. The candlestick had been moved, and it had been placed in the center of the table, with old marks and remnants of wax blocks. The killer left the candlestick on the table and then blew it out, and this half candle does not indicate how long the killer stayed. The room was not very messy, but there were still traces of rummaging, probably because he didn't have anything on his own.

A stack of official documents from his own hand, wrapped seals, folded court appointment letters, a few letters exchanged with his mother, an inkstone, a few ink stones, two old brushes, a candlestick, three and a half candles, a fire fold, a winter quilt, a winter coat, a gown, a pair of rag shoes and straw sandals, a pair of chopsticks, a pot, a kitchen knife, a frying spoon, a string of knotted copper plates for daily use, a basin, a scoop, and a bucket for drawing water.

It's all his possessions, all of them.

The last thing to talk about is his wound. He was impaled through the heart from behind and killed instantly.

According to Mo Liang, although this person did not leave any evidence at the scene, he was "full of loopholes". The murderer could have wiped Siyan's neck, leaving only a thin, arterial wound that left him bleeding to death. In this way, people cannot tell what kind of murder weapon he used. Mo Liang said that they all believed that it was an outsider, but the motive was unknown. Because in that kind of poor and sour place, there is absolutely no such fast and sharp good knife.

In fact, the wound was only thin on one side and thick on the other, so the murder weapon was a knife. A weapon that can completely pierce a person must be a long knife, not a dagger or the like. The wound is straight through, so it is a straight knife.

None of them knew if Mu Wan had read these notes carefully. But in the eyes of Shanhai, this killer is not stupid.

It's conceited.

He didn't care at all.

Mo Liang finally wrote a sentence hastily, everything is fine, don't read it. He probably didn't think Mu Wan would come back. But which of the two of them knows Mu Wan better? I don't know the answer yet.

The only thing I knew was the description of the wound, which couldn't help but make the three of them think of an old acquaintance at the same time. The technique is also similar - wasn't Yan Muxue also stabbed in the heart with a straight knife? It's just from the front. Say it because they can't find a reason. What is the connection between Mu Wan's affairs and her brother? If someone wants to trick her into going back to Xueyan Valley, there is no need to toss so much and run to that kind of wild place. And in that kind of place, there is no talk of robbery, let alone a reason for the court to fight. Siyan is a person, and he shouldn't make enemies, at least who can he make enemies with in that kind of place? It's just a bit of a contradiction with some local stubborn guys, no matter how he says it, he is also an "official master", and no one will wield a knife or a gun.

He died, and the villagers were sad. Everyone was sad.

"When we chatted before, she said that if she had a chance, she would take us to meet her brother." Dai Luan said.

"When she's well, we'll leave at once." Shi Wuqi said.

Shanhai and Ah Luan looked at him, and then at the Qi girl beside him. Shanhai asked with some hesitation:

"Where?"

"Snow Yan Valley." His tone was reasonable, "She'll go back, right?" ”

"Yes...... But the Soul Rejuvenation Incense ......"

"Nothing to rush. I've waited so long, not a day or two. Shi Wuqi shrugged his shoulders indifferently, folded the two pieces of paper in half and stuffed them back into the envelope, "Didn't I fail to go with you last time?" And whether the girl also lives nearby. If we still have the chance, we can clarify it. I heard Ah Luan say that she made a fan, and time permitted, I can still give some advice. And that strange incense burner, didn't we say that if you really don't have a clue, you should ask the cloud mirror? Although I remember Ah Luan saying that he was very unreliable. ”

"Ahaha...... It can't be said that it is completely unreliable. ”

If Mu Wan knew his plan, he would definitely be very moved, right?

But they can't say that, because everything is unknown. When she will really recover, and what decisions she will make, no one can make up her mind for her.

"Snow Yan Valley goes north, and then goes north...... "Shanhaidao," there is a place called Cuiping Beach. There used to be a human village there, but now it's the territory of youkai. I heard decades ago that the yokai who live there don't get along, and they drove humans away. At that time, Cuipingtan was rich in roselle sand. ”

Roselle sand is also one of the materials for rejuvenating incense. It sounded like animal feces, too, according to Dailuan. After all, the luminous sand and the mochizuki sand come from bats and hares. But they weren't sure, because there were so few things that needed roselle sand that everyone wasn't impressed.

"I guess it's from some kind of youkai. When I was running a weeping corpse house, a youkai used it to pay off debts, and it ended up being circulated. If I knew there was such a use, I would have stayed. Shi Wuqi said.

Today is the seventh day. Mu Wan's fever has subsided, but the person is still asleep. Shi Wuqi went to the street to listen to those scattered information on the rivers and lakes again, and Shanhai went to the pharmacy to buy the medicine that was about to run out. Dai Luan borrowed a small stove in the backyard and burned medicine there. The scent of medicine floated up the wall and into the open window.

The familiar smell of medicine entered Mu Wan's nasal cavity, and she opened her eyes once, but quickly closed them. This kind of half-dreaming and half-awake time is the most annoying, always giving people the illusion that they will never wake up if they fall asleep, but when they open their eyes, they will have a headache again. She had just seen a glimmer of sunlight cast into the open window, which fell right on her arm, and it was slightly hot. When you close your eyes, you will see a verdant world as far as the eye can see.

It was like a vast meadow with many beautiful flowers growing and water. There was a man standing on the shore, showing his back. Judging from the heavy texture of the long lead-gray hair, it should be Frost Moon Jun. On this early morning, the sun hangs in the sky on the right.

Is it the role of the Demon Sealing Blade? But didn't Frost Moon Jun say that he couldn't sense the traces of the Demon Sealing Blade? Or was this illusion some kind of connection between herself and the Frost Moon Monarch that the Demon Sealing Blade had shown her?

The Demon Sealing Blade was placed next to her pillow, and she could see it with her head tilted slightly.

The breeze was blowing, and Frost Moon Jun was still standing on the shore. Mu Wan tried to shout loudly, but he didn't look back.

"It's your knife!"

In the dream, Mu Wan waved wildly, trying to get the attention of the only living thing. But Frost Moon Jun seemed to be unable to hear, and stood still. This made her a little confused. She tightened her grip on the Sealing Blade and tried to walk that way.

Suddenly, as if she heard a thunderclap, she couldn't move.

It's not an exact sound, it's just a feeling, a warning. Mu Wan suddenly froze and couldn't move, as if he was pressed by a ghost in a dream. And the scenery in front of him has changed drastically, all the scenery is clearly still there, but it is shrouded in a layer of blood, and the sky is also red and transparent. The silhouette of Frost Moon Jun and those plants turned into a black silhouette.

In the blink of an eye, everything was back to the way it was. And when she takes another step, it becomes such a terrible sight. But she felt that she couldn't retreat, and there was no way back, so she faced an inexplicable huge depression and walked forward step by step with a knife. The picture begins to tremble, distort, and finally shakes out an afterimage, turning the whole scene into a white dot in front of you.

At that moment, Frost Moon Jun seemed to have turned back, or maybe not.

Mu Wan rolled down from the bed, holding the Demon Sealing Blade in his hand. Sweat soaked her, and there was a water stain on the ground. Dai Luan, who came up with the medicine, happened to encounter this scene. Before she could put down the medicine, Mu Wan used both hands and feet, approaching her with her weak body, so frightened that she almost fell off the medicine bowl.

"Quick, go, go north...... Ahem, ahem, let's go north. ”
