Chapter 200: Peeling

The sound of the sheath was deafening, so that the scolding of the audience stopped, and they covered their ears one by one, looking at it in disbelief.

The Soul Eater Sword passes through the white cloth and nails it into the ship's wall, revealing the scene behind the white cloth.

At the same time as Shi Yan threw out the Soul Devouring Sword, the whole person jumped out, and Xuan'er followed closely behind.

He leaped in from the center of the broken white cloth and looked around behind the platform.

Behind the white cloth, the backstage was empty, there was not even a figure, and the bonfire was covered by a transparent silk object, burning steadily.

The Soul Eater Sword hung the newly appeared female shadow puppet nail on the wall of the ship five meters away, Shi Yan approached and pulled the sword away, and looked closely, the woman's shadow puppet was smooth with heavy makeup on one side, and the other side was dripping with blood and flesh, and was held up by four bamboo poles in tandem.

There is also a rope chain mark on the neck of this woman's shadow puppet, even if it is covered by heavy makeup, you can find it if you look closely.

"People, human skins?" Shi Yan pinched the shadow puppet up, and his pupils shrank sharply under the rubbing of his fingers.

Shadow puppets are usually silhouettes made of animal skins or cardboard, and they are performed with light-insulated cloth under bright light.

At this time, Sedum Tianqing ran in, swept around, and his face turned pale: "Zhao, where is Uncle Zhao?"

Shi Yan found several more shadow puppets, the same as the woman's shadow puppet, one side was smooth, the other side was dripping with blood, the flesh was bright red without the slightest sign of blackening, all of which were connected with bamboo poles.

Shi Yan tentatively manipulated and could control the limbs to make various movements behind the white cloth.

"Ji Jiechao?" Shi Yan looked at the familiar shadow of the noble son, and finally saw the appearance of his facial features, which was actually Ji Jiechao.

"What, what Ji Jiechao?" Sedum stammered, and his legs were so frightened that he kept swinging.

Xuan'er observed a few times, shook her head with her eyebrows and said, "Xuan'er didn't pick his skin." ”

Shi Yan knew that Xuan'er was not lying, and Ji Jie's superhuman skin was full of wounds caused by spiritual magic, tattered, but he didn't know how to put them together.

"Lord Shi?" "Jing Tianqing had heard Ji Jie's name, and when he heard the conversation between the two, he was even more frightened in his heart, Shi Yan's maid actually killed the son of Elder Ji Yang of the Bitao Society?

"Look. Shi Yan turned his head, and the aura of the Great Wilderness in his eyes flowed, making Sedum Tianqing lose his mind and be confused.

After a while, Sedum Qingqing came back to his senses, he rubbed his head blankly, and scurried around in a hurry.

"Uncle Zhao, where are you? Come out quickly......"

"Ahh

Shi Yan and Xuan'er went over and found Sedum Tianqing behind the ship wall.

Sedum sat down on the ground, his fingers pointing forward in horror.

Shi Yan looked at Jing Tianqing's fingertips, his eyes couldn't help but squint, ghost thing, or a murderer?

At night, on the clothes pole, six human skins, men and women, young and old, swayed with the river breeze, making a loud sound.

The clothes pole was at the upwind outlet, and the human skin seemed to have just been picked off, and a drop of blood was blown off by the wind, blowing Sedum Tianqing's head and face, and a few of them flew on Shi Yan's cheeks.

Shi Yan wiped it off with his fingertips, rubbed it and sniffed it lightly, and concluded that not long after his death, these should be the elders and children of Zhao Ji's shadow puppet show.

"Sedum Tianqing, you report to the official, Xuan'er, let's go. Shi Yan flicked off the blood on his fingertips and took Xuan'er out of the boat.

At this moment, the onlookers also found the human skin on the tandem bamboo poles, and they were so frightened that they turned around and ran, and disappeared after a while, and the wooden plank passage built by the boat and the boat was also much wider.

After getting out of the boat and standing on Hongfang Street in a down-to-earth manner, Shi Yan's mind turned, thinking of the strangulation marks on the neck of the woman's shadow puppet, and then thinking of the accomplice Zhen Yan who hanged himself on Fengqi Tower, the red little fish.

It's just that he didn't see Xiao Yu'er's face, and he couldn't be sure if it was a person.

"Fengqilou? Looks like we have to go there. ”

Shi Yan took Xuan'er and squeezed towards Fengqi Tower, the street was crowded with people, the voices of people were boiling, under such a dense crowd, the yang qi was soaring, if it was a newborn ghost, it would only be frightened away from afar.

Passing by the Yamen of Hongfang Street on the way, a group of people gathered at the Yamen Gate, passers-by avoided from afar, there were more than ten wooden planks on the ground, and the wooden planks were full of corpses, and the corpses were covered with white cloths.

It is said that it is a white cloth, but it has been soaked in blood, what kind of wound can make the white cloth stain like this?

Shi Yan thought darkly, thought of those human skins, and subconsciously stopped.

"Childe?" Xuan'er was puzzled.

"Study the corpse. Shi Yan stepped forward.

"Who is coming? The yamen is heavy, and idlers should not approach. A quick arrest captain shouted to Shi Yan with a gloomy face, there was a homicide on Hongfang Street, if it was a civilian, it was just a civilian, but it was in Fengqi Building, and it had to be investigated, which disturbed their interest in the festival.

Shi Yan threw out the life order.

"What is it?" the chief of the catcher took the order, and glanced at it casually, his body trembled.

With trembling hands, he handed back the warrant and asked respectfully: "It turned out to be the big boss of the Meteorite Gate, and the villain has eyes and no beads......

Shi Yan took the order, too lazy to listen to the nonsense of the chief of the catcher, and asked directly: "These corpses were moved out of Fengqilou?"

"Exactly, but how do you know?" The chief of the catcher raised his eyes in surprise, he saw that Shi Yan did not pursue his disrespectful words, his heart was relieved, and his body bowed even lower, even if there were curious and puzzled glances from passers-by, he couldn't care about it.

In the hearts of the ordinary people in Fucheng, Catch Kuai is already a great official, and it is difficult for them to see a bigger official.

A quick catcher bowed to a civilian, most of whom had seen it for the first time, so they were curious.

Shi Yan squatted down, and Xuan'er lifted the white cloth, revealing the corpse below.

Seeing that the white cloth was lifted, the surrounding people all avoided their heads, did not dare to look directly, and accidentally saw it, adults vomited on the street, and children cried non-stop.

Each corpse was skinned and dried up, and all the blood was gone.

"Sure enough, there are ghosts. Seeing these corpses, Shi Yan was completely sure that it should have just been born, and where was the birth bad, but it was born in Mingliang Mansion City, where the strong gathered.

The environment restricts the growth of ghosts.

This is a long-term endurance and can't bear it anymore? So choose the Moon Heart Festival for ordinary people for a long time? Want to break through the shackles and escape from the city?

"Did you have this kind of corpse before?" Shi Yan guessed in his heart, and raised his eyes to confirm.

"Yes, but it's scattered, and there may not be one in two or three days. The chief didn't know what Shi Yan was asking for, but he didn't dare to hide it and answered truthfully.

"How long has it been, why don't you report to the top?" Hearing that, Shi Yan said in his heart, sure enough, it was consistent with his guess.

He hadn't even noticed that he had just killed someone under his nose, and this ghost thing was indeed good at hiding it.

Afraid that he will find out, Zhao Ji shadow puppet family corpse blood has not drunk, or is it provoking him?

"It's been more than half a month, and it's normal for this dead person to die every day, and there are all kinds of reasons, if you can't find it...... They were all thrown into mass graves. The captain replied cautiously.
