"I'm afraid the girl is insinuating, right?" I asked her rhetorically.

In fact, since the wound healed, I also found that I had a very unique fragrance on my body, which was the same as that on Tang Jinghong's body. But it's definitely not what she said.

There is only one possibility, this girl knows that Tang Jinghong is a nine-tailed demon fox, after all, in most people's cognition, the kind of woman who is very attractive is called a fox spirit.

The girl snorted coldly, "Ninth Prince, Nan Ya has to call me Lord Yao when he sees me, where did you have the courage to call me a girl?" ”

It seems that I guessed correctly, this girl is Yao Mocking in the Six Doors and Four Demon Hunts, after all, only this name is like the girl's family.

"If you don't say your name, how do I know who your last name is?"

The girl giggled, "Interesting, I like people who pretend to be confused." Then I'll tell you again, my aunt and grandmother, I am the head of the six doors and the four demon hunts, Yao is mocking. ”

Since Yao was ridiculous, I had no choice but to cooperate with her to pretend, get up and bow to her, "Xiaosheng Nanjiu, I've seen Lord Yao." ”

"Neither humble nor arrogant, you are much stronger than most of the dog officials in the imperial court."

"Since Lord Yao has taken over Ying Tianfu, I won't hide it anymore. I need some manpower to investigate the murder of Cheng Fu during the day. ”

Yao mocked and giggled twice, "Interesting, a person who can kill a horse with one palm would actually find a helper?" ”

"It's easy to get things done." I'll reply to him.

I originally wanted to ask Lord Yin about the details of Chengfu's murder, but who knew that he would just leave, so I had to find a random reason to deal with Yao's ridicule. I don't think she will send someone with me to investigate the murder in Chengfu.

Who knew that Yao's next words surprised me.

"Since the ninth prince wants to investigate the murder of Cheng Mansion, I will personally accompany the ninth prince to investigate."

There was a smile in the corner of Yao's mocking eyes, the kind of smile with bad intentions. She has a black veil over her face, and her nose and mouth are not visible.

I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked her, "Master Yao said to check it in person?" ”

"Jiugongzi go and prepare, I'll wait for you on Zhengyang Street." After Yao said this, she got up and left.

A trace of uneasiness suddenly welled up in my heart, I have seen two of the four demon hunts. Feng Xiaozhi gives people the feeling that his strength is almost there.

This Yao is different, she has a temperament similar to Nan Ya, that is, you can know that this person is a master at a glance.

And Nan Ya is the kind of person, he basically ignores ordinary cases.

I heard my uncle say that some of the cases of Nan Yacha are basically related to the royal family, and he has come into contact with thousand-year-old tombs and thousand-year-old monsters.

At the time, I basically listened to it as a legend.

The movement of the Cheng Mansion murder case this time is so big, and Nan Ya will come back after a while, what shocking secrets are hidden behind this?

I shouted Niu Meng, and I didn't prepare anything, so I took him to Chengfu together. By the way, last night's bird, Niu Meng said that he fell into the well.

Anyway, in broad daylight, there is Yao Mockery, if there are really any demons and monsters in the Cheng Mansion, they can't do anything to us.

Martial law on the street has been lifted, and although the matter of the discovery of Chengfu's body is also in an uproar, the people seem to be used to it, and it does not cause panic.

This is mostly due to the rumors of the Cheng Mansion, and the people thought that the Cheng Mansion was a tomb robbery and damaged the Yin Virtue, so they were retaliated. still adheres to the idea of not doing bad things in life, and not being afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night.

If the people of Pingtou were killed one after another, Jinling City would have been in chaos long ago.

It was noon, and it was very hot, so Niu Meng and I went to eat a bowl of noodles first, and stayed in the noodle restaurant for another hour before leaving for Chengfu.

When I was about to arrive at Zhengyang Street, I saw Yao Xiaomei squatting alone at the corner of the street from a distance, as if she was feeding the cat.

She wore a black dress that stood out in the sun.

You say, on this hot day, she is dressed in black, and she wraps herself so tightly, isn't she hot?

Niu Meng estimated that he was too hot, so he directly took off his shirt and exposed his arms. The sweat on his forehead was like a spring, and it kept pouring out.

I'm fine, I don't feel particularly hot.

"It's not good for a girl's family, you are bare-armed." I reminded Niu Meng.

Niu Meng shook a handful of sweat back to me, "What are you afraid of, she is the leader of the four demon hunting of the six gates, and she has never seen anything." ”

Niu Meng's words made me unable to answer.

But it's true, to be able to mix at such a high level in officialdom, it is not enough to rely on ability alone. Maybe Yao has seen more men than cows have killed pigs.

When I came to Zhengyang Street, I found that the scene was similar to what I saw last night.

The surroundings were dilapidated and depressed, and the streets were littered with the carcasses of a few small animals, releasing a putrid stench.

"Lord Yao, are you alone?" I asked Yao mockingly.

Yao mocked up and looked at Niu Meng next to her, "What?" Isn't it enough for me alone? ”

"I didn't mean that, Cheng Mansion is more strange, and it is safer to have more people."

Yao Xiaomei looked at Niu Meng carefully, "There are calluses on my hands, my right arm is strong, my expression is weak, and my face is gloomy." Is there no one in this Ying Tianfu? Looking for a pig killer? ”

This makes me admire very much, she shouldn't know Niu Meng, and she can judge Niu Meng's profession just by her appearance, and she is by no means an idle person.

But Niu Meng was a little unhappy, "What's wrong with killing the pig?" Pigs are no different from people. ”

I touched Niu Meng and hurriedly played a round game, "Master Yao, this is Niu Meng, and I also learned autopsy with my uncle." ”

"Oh? That old thing is still alive. "Yao looked at me strangely.

"Master Yao knows my uncle?"

Yao Xiaomei bowed her head and shushed at the black cat who was eating, and the black cat jumped up and jumped into her arms, "It seems that your grandfather really hides you as a treasure and doesn't tell you anything." Well, you'll find out slowly. Let's go, there is a corpse in Cheng's mansion, go in and take a look. ”

I thought Yao had gone in and seen it in advance, after all, I didn't smell the smell of someone's corpse.

When I came to Cheng's Mansion, everything was similar to what I saw last night. Last night's torrential rain caused the soil in the yard to not dry up yet, and it is estimated that a lot of things have been washed away.

When I reached the entrance of the main hall, I smelled the smell of decaying corpses.

That's when I realized how powerful Yao was about it, there was dirt on her feet. Because if she wants to come to Chengfu, she has to walk a dirt road, and there are no footprints in the yard, which means that she didn't go to Chengfu before.

Could it be that her sense of smell is sharper than mine?

"The Ninth Prince looks a little confused?" Yao mocked up as if she knew what I was thinking.

I didn't plan to hide it, so I replied to her, "How did Master Yao know that there was a corpse in Cheng's mansion?" ”

Yao mocked and chuckled, "Do you know what the biggest difference between you and Nan Ya is?" ”

"Where?"

Nan Ya never asked why. You're just a hairy kid who hasn't dried up, and there's still a lot to learn. ”

When she said this, my face flushed, "Who smells and doesn't dry up......"

After saying that, I hurriedly opened the door of the main hall, trying to quickly change the subject.

"Wait...... Niu Meng, didn't you kick this door down last night? ”

Niu Meng looked confused by the second monk, "Yes, who put it on again?" ”

The corpse inside hadn't changed, it was still the person who practiced martial arts who had been pressed under the door panel last night, his face was almost completely decomposed, and the claw marks on his neck had become a little blurry due to the decay of the corpse.

Yao frowned slightly, and put the black cat in his hand next to the corpse.

The black cat tugged at the corpse for a while, and found four broken claws from it, similar to the broken claws that Tang Jinghong took out of my body.

Then the black cat began to gnaw on the carrion.

"This corpse has corpse poison, is it okay for you cat to eat it?" I feel sick just looking at it.

As if she hadn't heard it, Yao Xiaomei bent down to pick up the broken claw on the ground, picked it up and looked at it carefully.

"My cat is a moon shadow black pupil golden silk tiger, what can't I eat?"

The Moon Shadow Black Pupil Golden Silk Tiger, an extremely rare type of cat.

I haven't seen anything that looks like it so far, and legend has it that there is a gold thread on the back, and the gold thread glows at night.

The movement is extremely agile, even if it passes through the crowd in broad daylight, people can only see the shadow, not the walk.

However, this kind of black cat eyes are usually golden, and Yao Xiaomei's eyes are blood-red, which is even rarer.

Regarding the record of cats, my grandfather said that it was first from the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", but the name of the cat recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is not called a cat, but it looks like a cat.

Wait a minute...... Why do cats eat people?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shudder, and Yao Xiaomei said as if she had spied into my heart, "Don't worry, my shadow doesn't eat living people." ”

Niu Meng is a commonplace look, he is a pig killer, a live pig in front of him, he doesn't blink an eye when he goes down with a knife, how can this kind of person react when he sees this scene.

"Have you seen this paw?" Yao asked me again.

"It's supposed to be a cat's claw, about the size of a tiger. I've never seen such a big cat, so I don't dare to speculate. ”

"Have you ever heard of an ancient cat?"

"I've heard that they live by eating bears, and they are said to be the ancestors of tigers, but aren't ancient cats extinct early?"

"Is the nine-tailed demon fox still a legend? Didn't you see it too? ”

I couldn't refute Yao's mockery, after all, the wound on my shoulder healed so miraculously that I couldn't explain it.

"What do you think of this man?" Yao said mockingly, kicking the corpse on the ground.

"He's a master of martial arts." I'll reply to her.

Yao shook his head, "How else to say that you are stupid, this is obviously a tomb repairer." ”

"You mean...... This man died in the tomb? No wonder, in this case, the corpse poison can be explained. Someone may have brought an ancient cat into the tomb. ”

Yao glanced at me mockingly, "Let's go, go out and have a look, Shadow, go." ”

After she finished speaking, the black cat jumped up dexterously and squatted on Yao Xiaomei's shoulder.

Yao Weimei took Niu Meng and me around Chengfu, and finally stopped in front of the well.

I could easily see the water under the well, and I took a stone and threw it down, judging by the sound, it was not very deep. But there was a smell of freshly dug soil underneath the well.

Yao Xiaomei suddenly asked me, "What do you smell?" ”

"Someone's digging."

"Let's go, that's all for today."

"Why don't you go down and have a look?"

Yao narrowed her eyes, "Go down and die?" If you run into a Soul Burial Messenger, will you be able to handle it? I can't imagine that a small Cheng Mansion would make the Soul Burial Sect so aggressive, what are they looking for? ”
