"It's just an ordinary young man, alas, I really don't know what young people think now, how can they die at every turn?! Is there anything harder than dying? Alas," the innkeeper sighed, and then came out with a few plates of food, and said, "You two young men can stay here, and you can go and have fun during the day, but don't dare to go out at night. I live in the mezzanine on this floor, and now the two of you are left in the whole hotel, and I am called for something. He said as he closed the door to the hotel.

"Well, we're not going out." I said with a smile. The innkeeper nodded, and walked into his mezzanine on the first floor.

"Huoyi, are you still going out?" When the innkeeper walked into the house, Mei'er asked. I shook my head and said, "No, I know that the other side can survive a hundred battles, I feel a little tricky this time, so let's wait until I'm a little sure and then come into contact with the so-called heart-eating monster, and now I'll go to the forest tomorrow during the day to see if I can find any clues." "Yes." Mei'er nodded.

Early in the morning, when Mei'er and I came to the first floor, the innkeeper was already busy, and when he saw us, the innkeeper said enthusiastically, "You guys get up, sit here, I'll go and bring out the breakfast." "Hmm!" Mei'er and I smiled and nodded, and found a table and sat down. Through these two days of understanding, I know that the innkeeper is a good person, looking at the innkeeper busy in the kitchen, I said in my heart, "A good man has a safe life." Immediately, I quietly took out a peace exorcism talisman from my bag and folded it into a triangle.

At this time, the innkeeper happened to come out, "Come on, come on, I can't do my craft, you two young people will eat some." "Hehe, where is it, uncle, you have eaten for the past two days, it is delicious." Mei'er said with a smile. "yes, yes." I chimed in. Hearing Mei'er and I say this, the innkeeper smiled and said, "It's delicious, it's delicious, then you can eat." I'm going to get busy. ”

After breakfast, I was about to go out with my treasure bag and Mei'er on my back, when the innkeeper stopped us, looked at me, and said, "You two young people come back early." I nodded.

As mentioned earlier, this grove is next to a river, and further up there is a mountain.

The birds are singing in the forest, and there is a river next to it, and many people come to the mountains to hunt or buy some hares from the local villagers, and then gather around the river at night to barbecue or something, very lively. But now, it's desolate.

Soon, Mei'er and I came to the perimeter of the police cordon, and it was obvious that the body of the heartbreaker that happened the day before yesterday was found in it.

I stooped under the cordon and walked in, Mei'er following closely behind me. There was nothing on the ground but a few traces of blood.

I frowned and pulled the compass out of the treasure bag, but the compass didn't respond. When I was about to put the compass back in my bag, I saw the compass spinning rapidly, I was shocked, I looked around, but it was still silent, Mei'er saw my appearance and asked, "Huoyi, what's wrong?" ”

I frowned and said, "I don't know. I'll open the eye of heaven and see! "As I spoke, I was lucky, and now I had mastered how to control the power that burst out when I opened the Eye of Heaven.

When I opened the Eye of Heaven, I only saw some red resentment and black evil qi around me, and these were normal. After all, someone was killed here the day before yesterday, so naturally there was resentment. And when someone kills someone, there is naturally a bad spirit.

Seeing that the compass was still spinning, I was a little puzzled, what was the problem with this compass?

"Do you see what's coming?" Mei'er asked. I shook my head and said a little anxiously, "There must be a reason for the vision of the compass, but I can't see anything when I open my eyes." What the hell is it?! ”

Mei'er nodded slightly, then said, "Let me sense it." As she spoke, she saw Mei'er pinching out the fingers of her sword with both hands, placing them horizontally on both temples, and then closing her eyes.

About a minute or two passed like this, and Mei'er slowly opened her eyes. "Mei'er, how's it going?" I hurriedly asked. Mei'er smiled and said, "I sense a broken memory here. "Broken memories?" I muttered a repeat. "No wonder I can't see it after I open the Eye of Heaven!" Indeed, memory is just an empty concept, like air, which cannot be seen or touched.

"Huoyi, but I sense that this memory is only a small fragment, and the energy to maintain this memory is very weak, which means that this memory may disappear soon." Mei'er said with a slight frown.

"What then? Maybe this memory will help us! Mei'er, do you have a solution? I asked anxiously. This may be a clue, if it is broken, it will be difficult to check it again.

Mei'er nodded, glanced at the quiet forest, and said, "I can capture this memory, but I always feel that there is some danger nearby, and I have to sit still and meditate when capturing this memory, so I am worried that something will sneak up on us when I capture this memory." ”

Listening to Mei'er's words, I smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, it's daytime, the monsters will not dare to come out, and even if they come out, their strength will decay, and the earth qi cover should be able to protect the two of us."

The earth qi cover is to borrow a part of the underground earth qi through the palm of the hand, and then the palm of the hand bears the earth qi to form a protective shield on the body. I saw this in the book my uncle left me.

After Mei'er and I sat cross-legged face to face, I took out the three-pillar incense from the treasure bag and lit it and inserted it on the ground, then pressed my right hand on the ground, chanting a mantra to borrow the earth's qi in my mouth.

"The heart is the body, the meaning is the order. Qi to the palm, qi like the law. Behavior wall, wall like wall. The wall blocks the enemy, such as the law, such as the order. The spirit is here, bless my body, the law of the body! ”

"The heart is the body, the meaning is the order. Qi to the palm, qi like the law. Behavior wall, wall like wall. The wall blocks the enemy, such as the law, such as the order. The spirit is here, bless my body, the law of the body! ”

………………………………

This technique is a defensive technique, through the palm of the hand to control the earth qi around the body into a protective shield, all evil can not invade, but the disadvantage is that the earth qi will be slowly consumed. If you are proficient in using the earth qi, you can borrow the earth qi after the incantation is completed. But if you don't use it skillfully, it will take two to three minutes or even longer, and it is obvious that I am not skilled because it is my first time.

After about three or four minutes, I felt some itching in my palms, which was borrowed from the earth. Then I raised my right hand slightly, then I saw a stream of green gas brought out by my right hand, I waved my right hand to surround the green gas around me and Mei'er, after Mei'er and I were wrapped in this green gas, I nodded to Mei'er, Mei'er also nodded to me, and then I and Mei'er palms faced each other, and then closed their eyes.

After a few breaths, a scene slowly appeared before my eyes.

I saw that I came to another scene, it seemed to be night, because it was dark all around, and I frowned, trying to see everything here.

Slowly, I got used to the light, and I looked around, but I couldn't see Mei'er. In my mind, however, I felt that the environment here was more familiar, and when I thought about it, I was shocked, wasn't this the grove where Mei'er and I came?

Thinking like this, I suddenly heard the sound of a tree branch being trampled behind me, and I turned my head to see that it was a young woman in only pajamas walking in my direction, step by step, and more importantly, she didn't seem to see me.

I stared at her for a while, feeling a little chilly in my heart, because the smile on her mouth was very eerie, and her eyes were all black, and I thought she was possessed by a ghost.

At the moment when she passed me, I quickly took out an evil charm from my bag and lit it, but to my stunned surprise, the charm passed through her body and fell to the ground, and she still walked forward mechanically, I realized that I was in a person's memory, and all I could do was go through this memory, and nothing I could do.

When she walked 5 or 6 steps, suddenly a creepy hoarse laugh sounded "Hahahahaha...... I want to eat the hearts of women in this world, I want to eat the hearts of sluts in this world, and see if you still dare to seduce men and betray your husbands! Hahaha......" laughed for a while, the laughter stopped, and at this time, a dark shadow appeared in front of the woman.

"Hmph~ Where's your heart?!" The voice snorted coldly. "In ~this~" The woman replied coldly, and suddenly raised her right hand, and my heart was shocked. The woman jerked down her right hand and grabbed her chest, my pupils shrank, and I shouted, "Don't! ”

However, as soon as I finished speaking, I heard the sound of tearing skin, and then the sound of digging into the internal organs. "Master, the heart is here." At this time, the young woman said, holding her bloody heart in her hands. I frowned, resisting the urge to vomit and clenched my fists.
