The night should have been a sound sleep, but this night was destined to be a sleepless night.

Ever since Xie Ling trembled and listened to the ghost's words, the entire county government had fallen into a panic.

It's not that such a thing makes them panic, but that they have already fallen asleep, but they have to grit their teeth and get up to find the body, and they have to pretend that they are full of energy.

But with Gu Changqing's experience of opening the coffin for the first time after coming to Yong'an City, many officials went to Aunt Hua's kitchen to steal handfuls of glutinous rice, they just heard those storytellers say that this ghost zombie is afraid of this thing, but they don't know how to be afraid.

Although Gu Changqing felt a little sad for their timidity, for the sake of the efficiency of this dispatch, he still let them do it.

Soon, the officials gathered in the courtyard, but before leaving, I don't know who asked Gu Changqing without a clue, "My lord, how did you know that there were corpses in the dry well outside the city?" ”

As soon as the official finished speaking, before Gu Changqing could answer, he saw the person next to him slap him fiercely, and the official reacted instantly, and he almost slapped his own mouthful and tongue.

But in this way, these officials who were about to go out to do things began to tremble again, they were not afraid of bad people, nor were they afraid of the dead, but they were afraid of this invisible and untouchable ghost.

Gu Changqing probably understood their thoughts, and explained casually, "It's that when I went out today, I heard that people were discussing that there were corpses in the dry well outside the city, just in case, so I had to check it out." ”

"My lord, then why don't you just arrest and interrogate the person who spoke, don't say a lot of dry wells outside the city, but there are a lot of them, let's find it so hard, let him just say no!" Jiancheng thought for a moment and asked.

"This ......" Gu Changqing felt ashamed of the excuse he hadn't sorted out just now, "That person won't admit it after saying it, so we still need to take a look just in case." ”

At that time, the scene of Xie Ling's ghost hunting was still vivid, and Yan Mu's coma and his sudden awakening were also deeply remembered, especially in the New Year's Festival, the Ye Fu who came and went back from the dead made these servants begin to doubt the world.

Although they knew that what Gu Changqing said was false and was used to comfort people, there was no way, they could only listen to it seriously.

After nightfall, Yong'an City has a curfew, and the city gate is also tightly closed, this is the first time that these officials have left the city gate in the middle of the night, although they are a little scared, but the excitement finally occupies a dominant position.

A group of people talked and laughed from time to time and came to the wasteland outside the city, although there were many dry wells outside the city, but Xie Ling also gave a general direction in his words, southeast direction.

In order for the servants to take care of each other, the three of them divided into a group to look for it, and the moonlight was still a face-saving thing, and a large area poured out, giving a greater light beyond the torches.

However, the search had just begun, and it was only a stick of incense, and a burst of exclamation came, and in the blink of an eye, the officials once again experienced the fear of the night of the coffin opening and autopsy.

Gu Changqing hurried over in the direction where the voice came from, the officials had already formed a circle, and some were lying on the ground, shouting inside, and when they saw Gu Changqing coming, they slowly stopped talking.

"What's wrong?" Gu Changqing asked in a hoarse voice.

"Huang Wu fell? This rope has also been handed down, but he can't get up to his size? Chen Gang lay on the ground and said helplessly.

Just now, there was a servant with Chen Gang who was looking for a dry well, but he didn't pay attention, so he watched Huang Wu disappear from the ground, and after a closer look, he realized that it was a well with a bulldozed hole, but the dry well was not dry, but there was still water in it.

Fortunately, the person who fell was Huang Wu, he knew water, and he was tall, and the water only reached his waist, if he were someone else, he would have been doomed long ago.

Gu Changqing took off his shoes while listening to people, Huang Wu didn't know kung fu, plus the scene around the well wall was mossy and slippery, and he couldn't come up with this posture at all.

Gu Changqing jumped down, the inside of the well was actually very wide, there was still a big gap between the two of them, Gu Changqing bent over, so that Huang Wu could step on his shoulders to reach the edge of the well wall, and after Huang Wu was finally dragged up, Gu Changqing thought about what Xie Ling said, and slowly searched for it in the water, and there was nothing else superfluous.

After a panic, Gu Changqing explained and asked everyone to pay attention to the dry well under his feet, and then began to search again.

However, from the starry sky to the faint morning light, I searched for most of the night, and I found a few dry wells, but after going down to check, none of them contained corpses.

There was no way, a group of people had to return to the county government in a mighty way, Xie Ling also waited at the door early in the morning, after Gu Changqing briefly said the matter, Xie Ling shook his head vigorously, it stands to reason that this is what the "person" said is probably what he meant? Could it be a misunderstanding?

A group of people didn't sleep for half the night, and they were tired, so they simply ate some things made by Aunt Hua, and went back to make up for sleep one by one.

Gu Changqing was in no mood to sleep. If the thing Xie Ling saw was real, there must be a corpse, but I don't know where this corpse is?

Now, I'm afraid I can only wait for someone to report the crime!

However, before noon, Gu Changqing and others came.

It was a middle-aged couple, still holding a five or six-year-old child, according to them, they saw the child yesterday morning, when he was sitting at the door crying, they thought whose child was lost, so they accompanied the child at the door and waited for the father and mother to come to find it.

But I waited for a day and didn't see anyone, and then I thought maybe it was a mother who didn't want children.

But the child didn't speak, he always cried, and after eating, the two of them couldn't take the child to the hospital to see the doctor, but the doctor said that he was not sick.

It was already evening after this, so I had no choice but to leave the child behind, thinking that I would send it to the yamen the next day.

But the next day, when the woman was cooking, there was no water, so the man went to fetch water, but while the man was fetching water, he found a lump floating in the well.

At first, it looked like a colorful mess, and the man thought that he had fallen into something unclean, so he found a long pole and wanted to pick it out, but as soon as the long pole went in and touched it twice, the lump of things fell apart, and then the man saw it really, the colorful thing was clothes, and there was a white corpse wrapped in it.

Frightened, the two hurriedly came to report the case, and handed over the children to the county government.

In this way, this corpse should be what Xie Ling saw, and without stopping, Gu Changqing immediately took people to the scene of the crime.

At that time, there were already a lot of people around the side, but they were all watching the excitement, pointing and pointing one by one, without the slightest fear.

Seeing the people from the county government, they withdrew one by one.
