Qu Youying was stunned, and saw an unknown object flying towards her, and instinctively went to the side.

But Xie Xiaoer behind her didn't know, seeing that she opened to the side, her forehead was hit hard by something.

He was stunned, took a few steps back, and sat on the ground.

Qu Youying looked at him like that, and couldn't stand up with a straight smile.

"It hurts, what hit me?"

He ignored Qu Youying's ridicule, wiped it on the ground, picked up the culprit, put it in front of him, and was shocked.

"Human bones?"

Qu Youying's laughter stopped in an instant, and she also looked at the human bone.

The bones still had undried blood stains and flesh that had not been completely peeled off.

"Take it in!"

She said and immediately entered the house, Xie Xiaoer reacted quickly, picked it up and rushed in, closed the door, and prevented others from approaching.

He was holding a human bone in his hand, and just as he wanted to throw it away, he saw Qu Youying standing motionless in front of him.

"What's wrong with you?" He stepped forward to take a look and found that Bai Qiu had fallen to the ground, but Mu Jingzhu was gone, "Where is Jingzhu Man?" ”

"I don't know."

Qu Youying's brows tightened, she took two steps forward, walked to Bai Qiu's side, and reached out to probe his pulse.

"Luckily, he fainted."

"What about the homeless?"

Xie Xiaoer looked around, and behind the stone bench on the east side, he found the person who had fallen to the ground.

He stepped forward quickly, wanting to get closer, but he was a little afraid of the brute attack of the force before him, so he hesitated.

But Qu Youying was not afraid, she strode over, squatted beside the homeless man, and stretched out her hand.

"Be careful—"

"It's fine." Qu Youying's slender fingers were placed on the side of the shouting neck, and when she touched it hard, her slightly frowning brows wrinkled even tighter, "He's dead." ”

"Dead?"

Xie Xiaoer's eyes widened, and he squatted down with some disbelief, and tested it himself, and finally agreed with Qu Youying's judgment.

"But I don't understand, what you did was drugged, how could you let him die?"

"It's not just about dying."

Qu Youying laid the body directly flat and untied his clothes with his bare hands.

Xie Xiaoer squatted down curiously to look, and then instantly covered his mouth.

"God, how can this be?"

He doesn't know, and Qu Youying doesn't know either.

After she untied the homeless man's clothes, she found that under the tattered clothes, it was not the flesh and skin that people should have.

It's a skeleton!

There is no flesh and skin, no internal organs, only an empty skeleton, only broken flesh and blood that has been gnawed into!

"I must have read it wrong? Am I dreaming? ”

Xie Xiaoer touched his face and pinched it hard until he felt the pain.

"It's true, that's right."

"If that's right, where did all his flesh go?" Xie Xiaoer pointed to the minced meat in his skeleton, "These are all gnawed off by him, right?" And the flesh and blood on the skeleton have not been completely peeled off, there are still adhesions, like the human bone that was thrown out of the house, could it have been shaved off? No, it should have been gnawed down. ”

Qu Youying's eyes narrowed slightly, "What do you say?" ”

"You look at the traces of flesh and blood, is it similar to being bitten?"

Following Xie Xiaoer's hand, Qu Youying leaned over, and the remnants on the chest skeleton were indeed somewhat similar to those that had been bitten.

But in this courtyard, outside the white hill and Mujing candle just now, there was only one homeless man.

He was the only one who was gnawing on corpses.

But now who has gnawed off the flesh and blood on his body?

"Flesh-eating bones."

Four words suddenly popped out of Xie Xiaoer's mouth, and Qu Youying froze, "What do you mean?" ”

"Even the places where the flesh was eaten turned into bones." He said with a smile, touched his head, and looked honest, "I also saw it in a book." ”

"Stay and go."

Qu Youying pursed her lips, not wanting to pay attention to him.

She never doubted what she saw on the corpse, and she poked her finger at the homeless man's neck, which left a corpse spot behind his neck.

"The corpse spots on the corpse have appeared, and the time of death should have been more than an hour," she said. ”

"If you die for more than an hour, then there must be a mortis."

Xie Xiaoer also reached out and touched the arm where the skin and flesh were still there, and continued.

"But the flesh of this corpse is not stiff. There are only two cases in which mortis does not occur. Either he died, or he had been dead for more than twelve to twenty-four hours. ”

"But he's already got a corpse spot." Qu Youying also expressed the doubts in her heart, "If the corpse spot exists, it will not disappear." Judging from the distribution of corpse spots on the corpses of homeless people, the time of death would never have exceeded twelve hours. ”

"And how long has this man been dead?" Xie Xiaoer was already confused, "From the time I received Bai Qiu's notice to now, this homeless man has never shown a state of death, and he has been gnawing. And attack people! But now that he's dead, it shouldn't have been a corpse before, right? ”

Qu Youying glanced at him, "Have you ever heard of a corpse cheater who changed in such a short period of time?" ”

"What would that be?" Xie Xiaoer touched his head, looking inexplicable, he looked around for a while, and muttered, "And Jing Candle, where did he go?" Didn't you use drugs to stun the homeless? What the hell just happened? ”

Qu Youying shook her head, she looked back at the unconscious Bai Qiu, and the corpse that was gnawed by the homeless man in the same place, and sighed.

"Let's rest in the house near Big Brother Bai first, and then I want to re-examine the two corpses."

Xie Xiaoer has known her for many years, and knew what she meant, so he immediately put Bai Qiu into the house to rest, and then conducted an autopsy with Qu Youying.

Time passed bit by bit, and the sun gradually rose to the middle of the sky, and under the sun, the breath was stuffy, and the sweat in the body was constantly urged.

The residents outside the door could not wait for the news, so they could only leave first, leaving only the catchers to guard the door of the house dutifully.

Qu Youying took off her gloves and stood up from the ground, but unexpectedly she was dizzy, her eyes were dark, and she fell backwards.

"Be careful." Xie Xiaoer held the person in time, "It's too hot, you can rest for a while." ”

Qu Youying nodded, went to the side and washed her hands with clean water.

Xie Xiaoer handed over a cup of herbal tea in time to quench her thirst.

She took a sip of it, and then she felt a lot more comfortable, looking at the two corpses on the ground, her brows were tightly locked, and there was no sign of letting go.

Judging from the surface of the corpse, Zhang Dahu's death was nothing unusual, he was bitten to death alive. And there is no sign of being drugged or poisoned. ”

"But how can a person be bitten alive for no reason? Wouldn't he have a painful reaction? Even if you are drugged, as long as you don't die, you will definitely react. ”

Xie Xiaoer sat beside her, poured a cup of herbal tea, and also felt that these two corpses were incredible.

"Maybe it's under a curse?" Xie Xiaoer's mind turned quickly, and he had already thought of seventeen or eighteen possibilities while speaking, "I've heard that there is a spell that can make people die in joy. is like Zhang Dahu, he died so miserably, but he always had a smile on his face. ”

Qu Youying rolled her eyes, shoved the teacup into his hand, and stood up from the chair.

"Then you go and find out what spell is written in what book."

"Why don't you believe it!"

Xie Xiaoer put the teacup aside, stood up, and followed her footsteps.

"I'm not disconvinced, I just want to find further evidence."

Qu Youying rubbed her neck, she was very tired, but she had to persevere.

She had only walked a few steps when she saw Bai Qiu wake up and hurriedly greeted her.

"Big Brother Bai, are you awake? What the hell just happened? How come we didn't hear any movement outside? ”

Bai Qiu covered his head with his hands and stood in front of the house, his brows furrowed, and his face was painful.

"Yes, Baiqiu, how did you faint? What about the Candle Man? Where did he go? ”

As soon as Qu Youying and Xie Xiaoer asked, Bai Qiu's eyes were hazy for a while before they slowly became clear.

"I don't know. At that time, Jing Zhu asked me to check the direction of the wind, and he stood in front of the homeless man and stared. I felt a change in the direction of the wind, and told him that we had indeed stuned the homeless man with no drunkenness. Jing Zhu deliberately waited for a while before he stepped forward to check. The homeless man was unconscious and motionless, so I went to the chains to tie him up to prevent him from hurting anyone again. ”

"And then?"

Qu Youying was worried about Mu Jingzhu's whereabouts, but she wanted to know what happened at that time, and her tone was a little anxious.

"Don't worry, Bai Qiu was injured on the head, and it will be slower to recall, don't worry, Jing Zhu will be fine."

Xie Xiaoer was rarely comforting and helped them sit down on the bench.

Qu Youying sat with her hands and ten fingers interlocked in front of her waist, tense and white.

"Big Brother Bai, what's going on next?"

"At that time, I was squatting down with a chain to tie up the homeless man, but Jing Zhu didn't know what he saw and suddenly knocked me out. I hit my head on the ground and passed out. ”

"Jing Candle knocked you out? Why? Did he find something? For example, if the crisis is approaching, he doesn't have time to remind you, so he can only open you first to avoid you being in danger? So he's gone now, did he go out to track him? ”

Qu Youying's series of questions made Bai Qiu unable to answer.

Because he really didn't see anything, he fainted.

"Brother Bai, I ask you to think about it, what was wrong at that time? Did Jing Zhu say anything to you? Even if he went out to follow him, it would be two hours later, and he should be back. But not now. ”

"Xiaoying!"

Xie Xiaoer pressed her shoulders to stop her nervousness and trembling.

"I know you're worried, but you have to believe it. His martial arts are so high, there will be no danger. Maybe it was something on the road that caused the delay in returning. Shall we wait a little longer? ”

"Miss Qu, Gongzi Xie is right, don't worry. Jing Zhu will be fine. ”

"I-"

Qu Youying clenched her mouth and didn't say a word.

She actually never worried about what would happen to Mu Jingzhu, because there weren't many people who could hurt him.

But this time, for some reason, she was always very unsteady in her heart for no reason, and she always felt that something would happen to Mu Jingzhu, so she was very anxious.

But this rush did not solve anything.

Since that day, for several days, I haven't seen Mu Jingzhu come back.

Qu Youying would go to the places he would go to find him every day, but every time it was in vain.

He disappeared like the world had evaporated.
