Chapter 546: Ghosts Eat

Su Musha didn't tease him anymore, and only said, "If it hadn't been for the ghost vine who killed him first, he might have killed us today." Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info his death can be said to be completely deserved. I don't have any intention of repaying virtue with resentment, and I'm not a holy father, and I won't save him. ”

Repaying grievances with virtue is an idea that only a fool can have! He wouldn't be that kind of fool.

With that, he walked in the direction of the living room, Li Cheng hesitated, and then hurriedly followed his pace. This time, he didn't dare to say anything.

***********************************

As soon as the two entered Li Cheng's bedroom, Miss Li Zhen pounced, of course, the object she chose to "throw herself into her arms" was Su Musha. The little girl's good impression of Su Musha was obviously bursting, she plunged into Su Musha's arms, tightly grasped the corner of his clothes, and said excitedly: "Brother Su, brother." You're finally back. Are you alright? ”

Su Musha touched the top of the little girl's hair, "It's okay, I'm worried about you." ”

The feelings of Lu Yunxiao, who watched this pair of interactions, were very complicated - hey, little pot friend, that's my master!

Plum?? Brother?? Cheng's mood is also complicated - his sister cares more about an outsider than about her own brother. What to do? Urgent, online, etc.!

Fortunately, this time of intimacy did not last long. Su Musha asked the little girl to go to his brother's bed to rest first, and then asked Lu Yun, "Where is Mother Zhang?" Why haven't you seen him come out tonight? ”

Li Cheng was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't know, maybe, maybe he is still resting in the room." ”

Zhang's mother suddenly appeared at his house in the past few years, and Li Cheng didn't know anything about Zhang's mother.

At this time, Li Zhen poked her head out of the quilt and said to everyone in a childish voice: "I know, I know, Mother Zhang has to come to me every night...... Go to my dad's for a bottle of something, she didn't go tonight, she must be in her room. ”

Su Musha, Lu Yunzhang, and Daoyuan were all stunned - a bottle of something? What's that bottle thing?

After asking the little girl where the maid's room was, Zhang Daoyuan stayed in the room to protect the Li family brothers and sisters after being covered by Su Mu with two antidote pills. He took Lu Yun and ran all the way to the maid's room.

But when I finally got to the maid's room, it was empty. And everything in the room was extremely clean and tidy, deserted, and completely unpopular, as if no one had lived in it for a long time.

That's not right.

Could it be that Mama Zhang got the news and had already packed up her baggage and ran away alone?

As a last resort, the master and apprentice had no choice but to split up and look for Zhang's mother's traces.

Su Mu was hiding in the flower bed outside and looking in the corridor, while Lu Yun was looking in the rooms around the maid's room. Not long after, Su Musha heard Lu Yun's voice, "Master, come quickly, I found it!" ”

Su Musha hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound, but when he arrived at the door, he found that this was the kitchen?

Lu Yun was in the kitchen, and in front of her, there was a person lying on his back on the ground, motionless, judging from the back and clothes, it was indeed Zhang's mother.

Su Musha was afraid that something would happen, so he asked Lu Yun not to touch Zhang's mother's body first. He strode into the kitchen, came to Lu Yun's side, covered his right hand with a layer of aura, and then cautiously patted Zhang's mother's shoulder, and called: "Zhang's mother, Zhang's mother......"

Zhang's mother didn't move at all.

Su Musha had to turn Zhang's mother's body over. The face that was revealed as a result really frightened the master and apprentice.

Obviously, Zhang's mother was normal when she ate at night, but less than six hours had passed, and her face had changed drastically. The original normal face had become as ugly as death, his body had long been stiff and cold, his eyes were wide open, his pupils were slightly constricted, his breathing and heartbeat had stopped, and corpse spots had grown on his exposed skin. Obviously, Zhang's mother has been dead for a long time.

Su Musha and Lu Yunyou checked up and down, and found that Zhang's mother had no visible injuries on her body, nor did she show any signs of poisoning. So it is possible that there is a sudden illness and death.

Lu Yun looked up at Su Musha, "Master, you said that Zhang's mother's death would have something to do with the medicine Li Rongye gave her?" Is it that without that kind of medicine, Zhang's mother will not be able to live. ”

Su Musha pinched Zhang's mother's fingers, cut through the skin there, and then sniffed in front of the tip of his nose, looking a little strange.

Lu Yun was speechless and choked - Master, what are you going to do here?

Su Musha quickly put down Zhang's mother's hand and said to Lu Yun: "This Zhang's mother should have died a long time ago." ”

Lu Yun was shocked, "What? ”

Su Mu lowered his eyes and looked at Zhang's mother's corpse, "In her flesh, there is a very strong rancid smell, which is the smell of corpses that have been dead for many days. We can make such a guess, in fact, Zhang's mother has died a long time ago, and the bottle of medicine that Li Rongye gave her allowed her body to move freely, no different from ordinary people. However, she must fully comply with Li Rongye's orders. ”

What Zhang's mother usually does actually involves a lot of insider information and privacy of the Li family. For a person like Li Rongye, who has a lot of secrets and is very suspicious, maybe there is only one dead person, a dead person who can obey his orders and can't talk nonsense, so that he can really rest assured.

Lu Yun was first shocked by his master's description, and his stomach turned upside down, and he almost vomited again. Then he heard the key point in Su Musha's words, "Master, are you saying that in the past few days, what has been entertaining us has always been a dead person, a corpse?" But we didn't notice it? And Mama Zhang doesn't look like it at all, doesn't look like a corpse? "After all, she behaved so normally. If Li Rongye has the ability to manipulate the dead and make the dead look no different from the living, then it is too powerful!

Su Musha pinched Zhang's mother's skin and said, "The answer is here, this skin is very powerful, and it can isolate the breath of all dead people." So even if Mama Zhang is close to us, we can't feel it. As for Li Rongye's ability, wasn't there such a powerful person around him before? Although that person is no longer alive, no one knows how many transactions Li Rongye has made with him. ”

Lu Yun nodded, it was not impossible to say this.

Su Mu raised his eyes, forgot about it in the kitchen, and found that there was still a fire burning in the fire, and the rice was still steaming in the pot, but on the top of the pot, there was an incense burner, and there were still three burning incense sticks in the incense burner, and white smoke was curling.

This scene is extremely familiar to Su Musha, you ask why? Because Su Ji sells incense, candles, and paper! The taboos in it are all clear. For example, the practice of placing incense and candles next to the meal is obviously a meal for the dead and ghosts. In Su Ji, he often used this method to make food for Huang Yi and Huang Er at home.

No wonder he has eaten a few meals at Li's house in the past few days, and he will feel that the taste is so strange, as dry and tasteless as a candle, and the reason is here.

However, this kind of ghost eating is really not harmful to the living, so Su Musha decided not to tell his little apprentice about it, otherwise the little girl would have vomited it ( ̄▽ ̄) again.

After the investigation was completed, the master and apprentice left the room, and when they left, Su Musha threw a piece of talisman paper on Zhang's mother's body, and soon, the corpse was burned clean.

Before returning to the bedroom, Su Musha deliberately made a detour, went to find the Huang Daoist, and asked him about Zhang's mother. The answer was largely consistent with his conjecture.

Zhang's mother was indeed a dead person, and the bone was a human bone they randomly found in the mass grave. The skin on the outside had been stripped from another corpse.

The owner of this corpse was a servant who used to look down on Shen Ying, and later Shen Ying died tragically, and she was also kicked out of the Li family by the eldest lady, and she died of illness a few years ago. The Zodiac priest's father soaked the peeled skin in his secret potion for seven hundred and forty-nine days, and then draped it over the skeleton. Strange to say, as soon as the skin was covered, the flesh and blood between the skin and the skeleton automatically grew completely, and the appearance was no different from that of a normal person at all.

As for the medicine that Li Rongye gave Zhang's mother to drink every night, it was a diluted solution after soaking the skin at the beginning.

********

"Do you have any recipes for those potions made by your father?" Su Musha asked.

Huang Daoshi hurriedly shook his head, "Before my father died, he burned all the bottles and jars of things in the house, as well as all kinds of prescriptions and books. He lamented that those things were very harmful, and they must not be allowed to flow out and hurt innocent people again. ”

Su Musha sneered, what was the use of repenting before he died, the sins he had done before could not be erased at all. He looked at the Zodiac priest condescendingly, "Before your father died, he should have told you not to touch those things again, not to use Taoist priests again, and to stay away from the Li family, right?" ”

"How do you know?!" The Huang Daoist raised his head in shock, but as soon as he came into contact with Su Musha's cold gaze, he was so frightened that he immediately lowered his head again.

Su Musha glanced at him - with such a father, what good son can he teach? He himself was blinded by money, and did he expect the zodiac to live an ordinary life without being moved by wealth?

"Alright, one last question." Su Musha asked, "Is there any medicine that Li Rongye gave to Zhang's mother now, and where is it placed?" ”

Huang Daoshi hurriedly said: "There should be still it, in the room where he rests on weekdays." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to a nearby house. "On the second floor there, there is only one room, which is Li Rongye's bedroom."
