In the morning I was still drowsy, and my phone was clanging and noisy. I answered the phone blindly, suppressed my anger and asked, "Hey, who?" ”

"Master He, my daughter-in-law is gone, woo woo woo woo ....."

When I heard it, I immediately became angry: "Your wife is gone, you hurry up and find it!" You look for me, and I don't see ......"

Before I finished speaking, I took my mobile phone and glanced at it, it was Zhou Bing calling, and I suddenly sobered up a lot: "You just said that your daughter-in-law was lost?" When? How many will you lose? ”

Zhou Bing choked up and said that he got out of the car and went home yesterday and disappeared, thinking that he had gone to a relative's house to relax. I didn't know that I didn't come back after waiting for a night, and I didn't see her daughter-in-law when I went out to ask.

I hung up the phone and got out of bed in a panic, and looked back at Satsuki who didn't move, but the two shoes were miraculously put on.

I quietly lifted under my pillow and saw that the shoe I had picked up was gone. But the other shoe is at the police station, could it be that Xiaoyue also went out last night?

In order to verify my idea, I hurriedly went to the public security bureau, and as I expected, I lost my shoes.

Zhang Qian saw that I was absent-minded, and asked with some worry, "What's wrong?" What went to your house yesterday? ”

I denied it and told Zhou Bing's daughter-in-law about the loss.

Zhang Qian breathed a sigh of relief: "That should be fine, they are all such big people, maybe where to go to relax." ”

I wasn't so optimistic, and said worriedly: "I seem to know where Zhou Bing's daughter-in-law went." ”

"Where?" Zhang Qian asked.

I let out a long sigh and said, "Come with me." ”

With that, we ran downstairs and drove to the Underworld. The moment she stepped into the threshold of the Immortal Stack, Zhang Qian covered her eyes with a loud scream.

My heart trembled a little, because there was a skinned female corpse in front of me, bloody and hung around her neck with hemp rope, and it was still crumbling when the wind blew.

There is also a silver needle in the center of the eyebrows, and this needle is called the Soul Separation Needle. I guess the skinning is just to increase the suffering of the deceased, so that the spirit can be separated as soon as possible. Then suck the soul to achieve the purpose of prolonging life.

I didn't dare to think about it later, because of how cruel people are, they use this method to prolong their lives, even if they live, what's the point?

Then the forensic doctor arrived and confirmed that the deceased was Zhou Bing's daughter-in-law. I reached out and pulled out the needle from her head, letting go of her uneaten soul.

The body was then lifted out, and I sat on the ground with my legs limped and my butt on my ass.

Zhang Jun also squatted down, took out a cigarette and said, "Master He, come to smoke a cigarette, this kind of thing is indispensable in the future, don't take it to heart." ”

I said thank you and took it, and borrowed a fire. After lighting it, I took a few deep breaths and coughed a few times.

Zhang Qian heard the movement and walked over, a little unhappy: "You can't smoke here." ”

"I'm sorry." With that, I stood up.

At this moment, a drop of water dripped on my head, and I instinctively wiped a handful with my hand, and a smell of blood came to my face, and I fixed my eyes to see which was water and blood.

We all found that it was wrong to look up at this locust tree, and found that the leaves of this tree did not fall in the severe cold weather, although the leaves were a little sparse, but they were still black-green, black-green.

"What's going on?" Zhang Jun asked.

I shook my head, took out my knife and slashed at the pole of the locust tree, and a stream of blood gushed out.

"It may have been a locust plant, which needs to be watered with blood to survive when it is young, and the underlying roots are not rooted in the soil but grow on the corpses." However, these things are all planted by Taoist masters with a certain degree of cultivation, so I don't know what the specific effect is. ”

Seeing that they were puzzled, I said, "The big pear tree cut down by Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms is similar to this one." However, this small tree should be only a few decades old. ”

Zhang Jun was dumbfounded: "Then Master He, you just made a cut, isn't it..."

Zhang Qian didn't know where such a big reaction came from, grabbed the knife and threw it out.

I picked it up a little helplessly, wiped the blood on the blade and said, "Captain Zhang, I'm going to throw a tree, you give me a few days off." ”

Zhang Jun was also full of curiosity: "Captain, I also ask for leave, I want to open my eyes with Master He." ”

Zhang Qian's little face changed a few times, and she was also full of curiosity: "Then let's go together, we will throw more people quickly." ”

After getting the tools, some took pickaxes to chop, and some had to take shovels and shovels, but the ground was a little frozen, obviously not so easy, and the roots gradually became larger and had to expand the range, so people changed a few shifts and dug more than a meter deep.

I just changed into a tired panting, took the mineral water in Zhang Qian's hand and drank half a bottle and said: "When the sun sets, you have to throw it harder, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with a big boss if it is thrown." ”

When everyone heard this, they worked harder, for fear that they would not be able to throw it out before the sun set.

At this moment, one of them shoveled out and pried the bloody mud, and several young men climbed up in three times and divided by two: "Master He, it's not good, it's bleeding." ”

I went over and looked at it, pinched a little bit of blood and mud and smelled it, and there was a strong smell of earth. Say, "It's still early, keep digging, and call me again when you're digging for blood." ”

A few guys changed again, maybe because of the frozen layer, a few people dug faster. In a short time, most of the roots of the tree were thrown out, and the roots were in the form of five fingers, as if they were grasping something.

"Master He, it's dripping."

I bent down to look at the growing water in the mud puddle and said, "Dig it." ”

It's just that everyone was a little scared, so I had to jump down and dig with a shovel myself, and the soft root tofu underneath was generally a lot faster.

However, the blood has also accumulated more and more, and it has been bubbling and making a "gurgling" sound.

I didn't dare to slack off and shovel up with blood, and suddenly I heard a "whoosh", and the blood in the small half pit leaked.

I came with a flashlight and shone it into the big black hole, only to see a large space with the roots of the trees intertwined. It was damp and bloody, and the whole space was red, and there was something looming in the middle that I couldn't see clearly.

I was a little reluctant to throw the hole bigger, so I looked up and said, "Get me a rope, and I'll go down and have a look." ”

Zhang Jun fixed one end of the rope and put it down, I pulled it to make sure it was firm and then stroked down the rope.

"Allure."

I stopped, glanced at Zhang Qian and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhang Qian took out a pistol: "You take it." ”

"You don't need that, you can have a peachwood sword."

As I spoke, I slid down little by little, but there was no flashlight, it was very dark underneath, and I didn't know where to step on my feet, and I couldn't help but touch the wall with my hands, and the wet and sticky feeling made people uncomfortable for a while.

"Is Master He the end? I'm down too. ”

Zhang Jun's throat frightened me, and I shuddered, and my hand was loosened to the end. The floor was also slimy, and there were some shoes on it. I rolled my eyes and said angrily, "What's the noise, you're scared me to death." ”
