When they saw the strangeness in Yang Hai's eyes, Cheng An and Ji Ran understood that the soul in front of them was not the soul of Huo Miao that they were looking for.

"It's not her." Yang Hai answered their doubts in the affirmative.

Cheng An thought for a while and said, "If she had been with Miss Huo, she might have been contaminated with her breath, so she was summoned by us." ”

"Does this mean that Miao Miao is still alive?" Yang Hai said excitedly.

Cheng An pursed his lips and did not speak.

"Let's ask her what's going on, I think the cause of her death is not simple." Ji Ran diverted the topic.

The three of them turned their heads to look at the female ghost by the window, who was still staring at them blankly.

"Has Yang Zhutou ever handled her case?" Cheng An asked.

Yang Hai shook his head, if he had seen this woman before, then he would definitely not forget it.

"What's your name?" Ji Ran asked softly.

The female ghost turned her head to look at Ji Ran, and a cooing sound came out of her throat.

Cheng An and Ji Ran glanced at each other, and their expressions were a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong?" Yang Hai asked.

Cheng An sighed lightly and said, "If Ah Yan is here, it would be good." ”

"Who is Ah Yan?" Yang Hai frowned and asked.

"She understands nonsense and can communicate with them."

"If you are a ghost, you can't speak human words, can you?" Yang Hai asked.

"It's not." Cheng An pointed to the female ghost's neck, the wound was deep, and the trachea was also cut off, "That's why she can't speak." ”

"Can't you help her recover?"

"I can't."

Yang Hai looked at him with wide eyes, he used to see that they were both runes and cinnabar, but now they can't even do such a trivial thing?

"When she's strong, she'll be able to change her appearance. Alternatively, find another ghost to help her. "But obviously, they can't do either of those.

When she is strong, I don't know what year or month she will have to wait. It is not easy to find a more powerful ghost in a short period of time.

"So what are we going to do?" Yang Hai said helplessly.

Ji Ran thought for a while and said, "Can you take us to where you came?" ”

The female ghost also understood that several of them couldn't understand what she was saying, so she stopped making a sound, and just nodded at Ji Ran.

"Let's go."

When they went downstairs, the female ghost muttered a few times to Ji Ran, and then pointed to the horses on the street.

"You mean, it's a long way away, and we'll have to ride there."

The female ghost nodded vigorously.

Looking at the wound on her neck, Ji Ran was really worried that she would get her head off if she wasn't careful.

At the suggestion of the female ghost, they rode out of the city.

Looking at the path in front of him, Yang Hai's expression was a little unnatural.

Seeing Yang Hai stop, Cheng An hurriedly asked, "Yang Zhutou, what's wrong?" ”

"The woods ahead are haunted."

Ji Ran glanced at the female ghost floating in mid-air, yes, the ghosts have come out, but it's not haunted.

Yang Hai saw Ji Ran's eyes, he suddenly felt that what he said was really redundant, he had seen the ghost with his own eyes, what was there to be afraid of in a haunted forest? Besides, there are three of them.

So, the three of them went into the woods.

The trees in the forest were extraordinarily luxuriant, much thicker than what they saw outside.

The female ghost led them for a while, and finally stopped at a flat ground.

Because of the haunting, this forest is rarely visited. As a result, traces of renovation have been preserved.

"Is your body here?" Ji Ran asked.

The female ghost nodded slightly.

Fortunately, they brought tools with them when they set off, which was also convenient.

The body was not buried deeply, and they quickly dug it up.

What was once a living person is now a white skeleton. Although her appearance is no longer recognizable, looking at the tattered clothes on the corpse, she can vaguely see that it is the same as that worn by the female ghost.

Ji Ran carefully put the bones on the black cloth on the side, and the female ghost squatted beside her, quietly looking at her corpse.

In addition to her, there were two corpses underneath. Same position, same bones. The difference is that they have all gone to reincarnation, and she is the only one who remains.

"Do you remember who killed you?"

She shook her head slightly.

"Then why didn't you leave?" Ji Ran then asked.

The female ghost looked at Ji Ran blankly, and she didn't know why she didn't leave. She just felt like she couldn't leave, she still had important things to do. But what was important, she had completely forgotten.

At this moment, Ji Ran also missed the words very much. If Ah Yan is here, then the two of them can communicate without obstacles. If all goes well, they might be able to look at her memories and find out who killed her, as well as the obsession in her heart. It's like now, I don't know.

"I have to report this matter to the prefect." Yang Haidao.

"Yang Zhutou, you wait first." Cheng An let go of his hand and said, "You let me think about it." ”

"If you conceal it and don't report it, if the prefect knows about it, there will be no good fruit to eat."

"I understand that." Cheng An was a little worried: "It's just that they buried their bodies here for a long time and have not been found, and there must be someone behind them who is supporting them." "City

"If Miss Bai is in their hands, our move is to startle the snake, but I am afraid that they will be unfavorable to Miss Bai."

Yang Hai looked around, there was the sound of birdsong, and there was no sign of anyone else, as long as the three of them didn't say anything, no one else would know that there were many corpses buried here.

"If this is really the same group of people, the place where the body was dumped is discovered. They must find a new location, and during this time, Miss Bai will be safe. Yang Hai said in a deep voice: "You guys are guarding here, and I'll go find someone." ”

Cheng An opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Yang Hai didn't give him a chance at all, turned around and left.

Ji Ran comforted him and said, "I think what he said makes a lot of sense, and it's a lot of mistakes to do more." They knew we had found this place and would definitely try to find a way not to get involved. In this way, we have enough reason to search Wanhualou. ”

Cheng An sighed and said, "Rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry, and dogs will jump over the wall when they are in a hurry." What if, what if they don't care about killing Bai Wei? ”

"Let's get Bai Wei out before they do, and that's it."

Cheng An glanced at the female ghost on the side, and said irritably: "Is this something that can be done by talking?" ”

"Third Senior Brother, we can definitely do it."

Cheng An looked up at the sky, and he didn't know what was going on recently, how did these bad things happen.

The two waited for nearly an hour, and Yang Hai finally arrived with the people from the mansion.

To his surprise, the prefect also came.

Looking at the bones on the ground, the prefect's face was very ugly.

"I asked you to find someone, but I didn't let you find a body." He said in a low voice.

Cheng An also learned from him, and whispered: "My lord, it was an accident that we found here. You can rest assured that we will find Miss Bai as soon as possible. ”

The prefect looked at him coldly for a long time, flicked his sleeves, and said, "Let's go." ”

"Thank you, sir." Cheng An arched his hand at him, and beckoned Ji Ran to leave.

"We don't care about the things here?"

Cheng An took a deep breath and said, "Let's find Miss Bai first and rescue the eighth child, many people will have more strength." ”

Yang Hai glanced at the prefect, and the prefect nodded lightly at him.

So, he followed and walked with Cheng An.

By the time they returned to the city, the sun was already setting in the west.

"Let's go, eat first, and when you're full, you have the strength to work." Cheng An Dao.

After a busy morning, everyone was hungry, so no one refused Cheng An's proposal.

In between waiting for noodles, Cheng An carefully asked Yang Hai about the news of Wanhualou.

It's a pity that Yang Hai is very self-conscious, he has never been to Wanhualou, so he can't give them useful news. As for the rest, in public, it doesn't sound good. So he didn't tell them.

Ji Ran looked at the female ghost beside her, she kept thinking about whether there was any way to get her back to normal. Even if it's just an hour, even a quarter of an hour.

As soon as they finished eating, someone came to look for Yang Hai.

That person gave him Bai Wei's birthday.

"Since you can summon spirits, why can't you summon Miss Bai over?" Yang Hai asked seriously.

"Because this spell is useless against the living." Cheng An said: "We can only find a way to get her back." I'll have to go to the White Maiden's house, and maybe we'll find something." ”

Cheng An looked at the female ghost on the side, if the person who killed her caught Bai Wei, I was afraid that she would be more than lucky.

"Third Senior Brother, let's go."

Baifu, because Bai Wei is gone, the original lively atmosphere is completely gone. No one dares to make a loud noise.

Mrs. Bai Yu Sen can be said to hate them to the core, as soon as they entered the mansion, she rushed to them and scolded them.

She cried while scolding, crying and begging them to return their daughter to her, no matter how much money they gave them, she was willing to pay, as long as they exchanged their daughter for her.

Ji Ran couldn't see this kind of scene the most, she wanted to return Bai Wei to her. But now they don't even know where she is, so they can't pay it back.

Before she could say anything, Madame Bai was helped down by the maid.

Walking far away, Ji Ran could still hear Madame Bai's wail.

Bai Wei's yard was very elegantly arranged, and Ji Ran liked it at first sight.

The female ghost seemed to like it too, and she rushed into the flower bed in the yard with great excitement, and spun in circles among the flowers.

Yang Hai pointed to the east wall and said, "There are footprints on the wall, he came in from over there." ”

Cheng An nodded, and went to the root of the east wall.

The footprints on the ground were still very clear, and it could be seen that the man was a master. It was really not easy for him to come in over the wall, and then go out over the wall with Miss Bai on his back.

Bai Wei's room, since she disappeared, the people in the house turned over on their backs, and the room was not cleaned. It's still the same as when she left last night, and even the quilt has never been folded.

But as he thought, the man was indeed a master, and he did not leave a trace, and they could not find any clues at all.

Ji Ran moved his nose, "Third Senior Brother, do you smell it?" ”

Cheng An stopped the movement in his hand and sniffed hard, "No, I didn't smell anything, what did you smell?" ”

"It smells light, but I'm sure there's blood in the room."

"Could it be ......," Cheng An Yi pointed out.

Ji Ran bared his teeth at him and said, "No, the smell of blood is still mixed with a hint of aroma." It should be the fragrance of the person the maid said. ”

"Why does it smell of blood?"

"He's hurt?"

This is a question that can only be answered by finding the person.

"Let's go, there's nothing we're looking for." Cheng An narrowed his eyes and said, "It's time for us to go to Wanhualou." ”

It's just that when they left Baifu, they learned that Boss Yao of Wanhualou had been invited by the prefect.

The prefect got the news that he had seen people from Wanhualou entering and leaving the haunted forest. So, he sent someone to take the boss of Wanhualou to the yamen.
