He was a little anxious, he had seen it when he was consulting books, although these Gu worms were nourished by menstrual blood, they would not be placed on someone's body for no reason, unless they were deliberately placed in someone's body by means.

For example, the previous deceased, they should have been deliberately fostered in the body by means, eating the host's flesh and blood every day, and finally eating up the host's flesh and tearing the host's body out.

But there is another way to attract these Gu worms, and that is to have their liquid on their bodies.

These Gu worms look black, but the juice they secrete is indeed colorless and transparent!

Just now, Master Liu's subordinates trampled too many Gu worms with their feet, originally those Gu worms just imagined running in the direction of the Longmen Grottoes, but when he stepped on it, those Gu worms were attracted by the juice of their companions, and they climbed onto the body of that subordinate one after another.

The subordinates were panicked, and their bodies were full of Gu worms, like everyone running towards them.

Saying that it was too late, Xie Yu hurriedly took out a fire fold from his cuff, and then approached the subordinate and lit the fire fold.

——

Gu insects are afraid of light, naturally they are also afraid of fire, the fire fold burned on the Gu worm's body, and the subordinate was also witty, taking advantage of the Gu worm being burned to death by the fire fold, he frantically slapped himself, those Gu worms on fire fell to the ground, and the Gu worms around him avoided it one after another, and continued to crawl in the direction of the Longmen Grottoes.

Fortunately, there is no danger, although there is a little burn on the body of his subordinates, but it is much better than the Gu worm entering the body and he whimpering for his life.

Even though there was sunlight and firelight, those Gu insects were still crawling quickly in the direction of the Longmen Grottoes, which couldn't help but remind Xie Yu that the last time he saw Hui Chan before, he was also going in a certain direction.

In the end, it still disappeared, and I thought there should be something else around here.

"Your Excellency." Xie Yu walked in front of Pei Heng, pointed to the swarm of Gu insects that were crawling quickly in the shadows, and said, "Adults don't feel suspicious? ”

Under the sun, Pei Heng's water chestnut was distinct, he looked sideways at the Gu insect swarm, and frowned tightly.

He did have doubts.

It's just that he is thinking now, what kind of person can plan such a big game and be so precise.

"Suspicious." Pei Heng replied.

But Master Liu on the side didn't understand: "What other questions can be seen here?" ”

Xie Yu raised her voice: "Before, Hui Chan disappeared at the Longmen Grottoes in front of him, and then was burned to death by fire, and you see, the place where these Gu worms want to go in the shadow is near the Longmen Grottoes. ”

Everyone fell silent for a moment, and the sound of the Gu worm crawling was all the same.

Master Liu thought about it suddenly, but felt that what Xie Yu said was indeed reasonable.

He also cleverly saved his subordinates before, this Xie Yu really has two brushes.

"Master Pei, your subordinates are really resourceful!" Master Liu admired: "Brother Xie Yu, when the case is over, I really like to invite you to dinner." ”

Xie Yu smiled a little embarrassedly: "Master, you are joking, if you want to invite, you should also invite Lord Kipchak, everything about the villain is taught by Lord Kipchak." ”

She is not complimenting, Pei Heng is an excellent and talented person in this area, from the day Xie Yu's family fell into the middle of the road, she hated Pei Heng to handle the case together, she knew that Pei Heng had an unlimited future.

Not only because he was born into a family, he is talented in this area, and even the psychology of those murderers can be portrayed through clues, how can this make Xie Yu not admire?

Although I don't know whether Master Liu is polite or really has this intention, Xie Yu still thanked Master Liu and politely refused.

It is the responsibility of a yamen official to save people, and she helps Pei Heng because of her duties.

After some discussion, everyone decided to go to the thatched hut where Hui Chan was burned to find out.

The thatched hut is partially charred and could collapse at any time. Pei Heng found a long stake and propped up the roof that was about to collapse.

The interior of the house is still unrecognizable, but it may be slightly apparent that it was once a habitable house.

At this time, the weather is dry and dry, and it is easy to walk in the water, not to mention that the house where Hui Chan is located is still a thatched house.

If a little spark falls on the thatched house, it will be a fire, and not only the people in the house will be in danger, but even the surrounding neighbors may not be spared.

However, there are really no clues found in the thatched house, and even if there are clues, they may have been burned down.

Xie Yu walked out of the house and went to the shade under the big tree outside.

She looked up at the clear blue sky, and suddenly remembered that she had been standing in the high wall of her house since she was a child, looking at the blue sky outside the wall.

At that time, her father was still there, and everything in the house was still there.

The leaves swayed in the air, and Xie Yu suddenly noticed that the lowest but thickest trunk was hung with a piece of debris of clothes.

She hurriedly got up, squinted her eyes and looked carefully, but she didn't expect it to be really a piece of clothing.

There is only one possibility that someone can hang their clothes on them, and that is if someone has had their clothes torn by the branches of a tree.

Xie Yu was clumsy and ready to climb up, carefully using both feet, and was about to go up to the top, but accidentally stepped on the air.

Her eyes were tightly closed, and she was still silently thinking in her heart that she would fall if she fell! It's not that tall anyway.

I thought that the pain would come as promised, but she was caught, and when her clothes were flying, Xie Yu saw Pei Heng's cold face, a pair of phoenix eyes full of rigor, and a slight trace of anger......

Landing on her toes, Xie Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, thank you, sir." After a while, Xie Yu found that she was still in Pei Heng's arms, and immediately blushed, hurriedly and clumsily dodged, her eyebrows and eyes full of shyness.

"It doesn't matter." Pei Heng's expression was also a little uncomfortable, but he quickly covered it up.

"But what are you doing in this book?"

Could it be that there are still clues in the book.

Xie Yu pointed to the branch in front of him, on which hung a piece of clothing fluttering in the wind.

Not to mention, there are really clues.

The branch was not high, just above her head.

I guess the man must be about her size, a little taller than her.

Pei Heng picked up the rag, and his sharp eyes also found long hair.

Perhaps this person was really negligent and left the most important thing in the cracks of the trees.

There must be clues around this tree.

She bent down and quickly withdrew from the tree's radius.

Fortunately, she didn't walk around the tree just now, otherwise the most important clues would have been destroyed.

The roots of the tree are loose soil, so it is easy to leave footprints.

On the side under the tree just now were the footprints of her and Pei Heng.

On the other side, a strange footprint appeared.

She quickly took out a measuring stick and measured the width and length of the footprint, which was two yards larger than her own.

Deep in the middle, shallow on both sides!

Looking at the broken hair on the branches, that person's height should be not much different from Xie Yu's, only tall, not short. The man was worried that he would leave a mark, so he had to change to a pair of shoes two sizes larger.

It's really careful.

If you just find the footsteps, there is no difference between deep and shallow, it is easy to catch the wrong person and let the murderer go unpunished.

I still remember when she went out to the yamen as a small drudgery who could only collect evidence, she made a fatal mistake at that time, the murderer was a man at that time, but she put on women's shoes and endured mobility difficulties to commit the crime.

Although it was a theft case, these people in the yamen naturally had to investigate it thoroughly for the sake of the people.

But at that time, Xie Yu reported the wrong clues, which caused the whole case to become a distorted trend.

The tall man became a short, fearful woman who spent many days in prison refusing to admit that she was a thief.

It wasn't until Pei Heng finally saw the overall essence of this incident that he finally learned that it was the man who stole the woman's shoes to commit the crime.

But for this matter, she really has to thank Pei Heng, if it wasn't for him at the beginning, she would have really imprisoned an innocent woman for no reason because of her own mistakes.

"My lord, you see the footprints here in different shades." Xie Yu shouted.

Pei Heng looked at the footprints and fell into deep thought, and what came to mind was also the case that Xie Yu recalled at that time.

At that time, she was still young, and after being taught a lesson by Pei Heng, she had a small face crying, but she still took the initiative to go to the woman in prison and admit her mistake.

"You have grown up now, and you will not be blinded by small tricks." The corners of Pei Heng's mouth hooked up a rare smile, and a pair of phoenix eyes flashed with a rippling light.

Xie Yu just smiled: "My lord, then I will think that you are praising me." ”

The two returned to the thatched hut and handed the clues to Master Liu and Cui Yun.

There were still no worthwhile clues in the house, but Wang Xiang'er seemed to be frightened by what happened in the Longmen Temple just now, so she went home first.

Cui Yun was worried that she would see Gu worms again on the way back, so she specially sent some people to her.

The people in the house learned about the clues in the book, went to check it, and took in the evidence.

Now that the evidence is complete, it can be concluded that someone deliberately harmed him, and even if that person wants to deny it to Gu worms in the future, he can't deny it.

Xie Yu was close to the root of the branch, and she didn't know why she was hanging her clothes, she tiptoed, and she could always ask about a vague residual milky smell.

Before, everyone said that Xie Yu's nose was better than that of a hunting dog, but today she really received too much taste impact, and she really couldn't tell if I had this milky smell on this tree, or if she smelled it wrong.

Xie Yu asked someone to bring the hound, and the hounds turned around the branches of the tree twice, but they didn't say anything.

Could it really be that I smelled it wrong?

But I don't know why, Xie Yu always feels that this taste is familiar?

"What's wrong?" Cui Yun looked at it and frowned, thinking deeply.

"Master Cui, don't you think there is a familiar but strange smell on this branch?" Xie Yu asked.

Familiar and strange smell?

Cui Yun frowned, and then sniffed closely, there are indeed ones, but very few.

Xie Yu closed her eyes and sniffed again, and a thought suddenly flashed in her mind: milky, fishy......

In the empty porcelain bottle in the house of the seventh victim before, it seems to be this smell!

She had a flash of inspiration and seemed to understand part of the connection.

If there is any necessary connection between the seventh victim and the present victims, the only thing is that they smell fishy. I think it must be related to blood, and there is a lot of blood!
