Chapter 55: The Green Fox Demon at Night

"Go on!" Flipping through the record book in his hand, the prefect was in a very bad mood, someone actually took advantage of this disappearance case to commit murder, and he didn't take the court seriously!

"The body of the merchant found yesterday was not only soaked in water, but the wounds on him were also different from several other corpses." Liu Qizuo paused and continued, "Although they all died from excessive blood loss, the other corpses can clearly see what they looked like...... The animal drained the blood. In addition to the bloody hole in his neck, the merchant had a blood clot on the back of his head, so it is very likely that the man was actually knocked unconscious from the back of the head with some blunt object, and the blood hole in his neck was artificially punctured, causing him to bleed to death. ”

"The bloody hole on the neck is also rough, and the regularity is obviously not as good as that of the other people. Therefore, the subordinates guessed that this person was most likely murdered in a planned way, and wanted to use the disappearance case in the past few days as a cover! Liu told the prefect all his thoughts.

"Hmm!" The prefect nodded, his eyes suddenly sharpened, "You are right!" I came over from Master Ji just now, and Lord Ji also had this intention. ”

"Hu Zhutou, you take someone to investigate the life and past of the merchant, who have you been dealing with recently?" The prefect commanded the big catcher.

"Yes!" Hu Zhutou looked solemn, respectfully accepted the order and went out.

Hu Zhutou's real name is Hu Tian, a native of Dongyang Town, because he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, he is righteous and righteous, and his uncle turned out to be the head catcher of the county government, so he finally did the head catcher.

He has been a small catcher for two years, has an excellent reputation among the people, and has high efficiency, so he took over his uncle's position and became the new big catcher.

He also did a good job during his tenure to help the people uphold justice and protect the people.

Now someone is committing murder under his nose, and when he catches the murderer, he will be severely punished!

After receiving a few people, he trotted all the way to the inn where the people were temporarily staying.

According to the initial investigation, it was learned that the merchant was not a local, but a traveling merchant from Linxian County, because he heard that there was a beauty, he stayed for one more night, but he was killed by someone.

A knife on the head of the color word!

Hu Tian sighed silently in his heart, he had never had a good impression of this kind of person, but ...... He will not be less than what should be done!

Here, Lu Yiyao and Yun Ji didn't wake up until three o'clock in the morning, and the two of them were lying on the bed, chatting with each other.

"Yiyao, how long are we going to stay here?" Yun Ji complained, "I'm getting moldy! ”

"I want to go too!" Lu Yiyao sighed, "But I can't get out until this case is closed!" ”

"Huh?" Yun Ji frowned, "How long will it take?" ”

"It's not that I look down on them, it's really that big demon is very strong, if it weren't for the fact that there are certain restrictions in the human world, according to his ability, a demon can kill all of us!" Thinking of the demon slayer she saw that day, she shook her head, "That's it...... It is estimated that it is also a gift for the head! When the case is closed, when will it be? ”

Lu Yiyao shook his head, "I don't know either!" What kind of demon slayer of those court masters have never seen in the world? When he received the news, he would definitely go to investigate, and if he found the difference in strength between them, he would not send him to death! ”

"People are more desperate than you think!" Lu Yiyao's face was calm, without sadness or joy.

“……”

In the end, Yun Ji did not persuade Lu Yiyao to run away with her.

Lu Yiyao said that they were not afraid of shadows, why did they run away, but it was just to delay a few days, and it was also convenient for her to cultivate with peace of mind in the past few days, instead of being in a hurry all the time and tiring the boat.

Yun Ji looked at Lu Yiyao with resentment in her eyes, she really didn't want to stay here!

There's such a powerful demon here, just in case...... If the demon slayer hadn't caught him, but had angered him, they wouldn't have had any good fruit to eat!

Besides, she is a demon herself, and if she stays in this city for a day, she will be in danger of being discovered by that demon slayer.

When the time comes, if you don't catch the big demon, what should I do if I take her little demon spirit to make up the number, Uncle Shu on the Foggy Mountain said that the world is all bad people!

Not including Yiyao, of course! In her heart, Yiyao is different from those ordinary mortals, and for her, she is the same existence as a silver thread.

"If you're bored, help me with incense! Didn't you promise to get one for me last time? Seeing that she had been staring at herself resentfully, Lu Yiyao said helplessly.

"Okay!" Retracting her distant thoughts, Yun Ji happily responded.

Turning out the package, he took out a wooden box wrapped in brocade, which was divided into several different compartments, each containing different spices.

These were all brought out by her from the Foggy Mountains, and the other few small bags on the side contained the ordinary spices she asked the little maid to help her buy in Qionghualou.

Jatamansi, Kaempfera, Angelica dahurica, Atractylodes atractylodes......

These are the usual spices, but the most precious one is indeed placed in the center, an inconspicuous-looking gray powder.

This is the leaf of the silver thread!

Every year, the silver filaments shed a leaf with a strange fragrance, and she collected the fallen leaves, dried them and set them aside.

By the time she reached adulthood, she learned how to make incense with a fox spirit who had been transformed for many years.

This incense is not easy to come by, after all, there is only a little bit of silver silk leaves!

Yun Ji opened the lid, and the fragrance spread throughout the room.

After hearing this, Lu Yiyao felt that the spiritual platform was clear, and her body was very comfortable, and a throbbing from her soul made her want to find ...... Own it!

"It's ...... What incense! Lu Yiyao forcibly suppressed the throbbing and asked Yun Ji.

Yun Ji didn't notice Lu Yiyao's abnormality, she simply thought that she was attracted by this fragrance!

Yun Ji smiled and bent her eyes, "How is it?" Incense it! That's what I've been learning from...... What my hometown brought is very precious! ”

Lu Yiyao nodded and didn't speak again, at first she only felt that the fragrance on Yun Ji's body was very good, which made her feel very comfortable.

The fragrance just now made her whole soul excited, and she only felt comfortable all over, and there was a sense of epiphany and soberness!

Yun Ji used a small wooden spoon to take out a little incense and mix it into the other spices, closed the box, and put it back babysittingly!

In just a moment, Yun Ji was ready, and put the mixed incense into a purse embroidered with a little fox.

"Whoa!" Yun Ji handed the purse to Lu Yiyao, "I'm done!" ”

Lu Yiyao took it, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently, which was the same as the fragrance on Yun Ji's body!

"This purse is very beautiful!" Lu Yiyao touched the outline of the little fox, "Especially these eyes, it's really good!" ”

Yun Ji's face suddenly turned red, and she turned her head, "That...... Of course! ”

Looking at her cute appearance, Lu Yiyao smiled lightly and tied the sachet around her waist.
