Volume 6 White Deer Academy Chapter 325 The Snowy Mystery Case (II)
"That's right, their blood is not clean. Zhuge Zhu continued to explain: "Because we cultivators have been nourished by the aura of heaven and earth all year round, we are no longer mortal in the flesh, and our blood is even more different from ordinary people, but there is a faint fragrance of aura. This smell is impossible for ordinary people to capture, but because I am a celestial spirit, I am particularly sensitive to this smell. The blood of these people was full of filth, and they were originally students of the White Deer Academy, so naturally they had not practiced any evil skills. So these filthy breaths are acquired, which means that they must have fallen under some kind of evil curse!"
"Curse?" Zhuge Zhu's words surprised everyone, but it also made sense, these ten people returned to the house after being cursed, and the curse caused the next ten people to kill each other, and there were not even many traces of a fight on the spot. But if you want to kill ten masters, the strength of the other party should not be underestimated.
"You turned out to be the body of a heavenly spirit, and sure enough, people can't look good. Youji Dao sighed with emotion, the body of the heavenly spirit has an extremely sensitive cognition of the qi of nature, and can distinguish between good and evil, and distinguish between good and evil.
"I'll see what the hell this is. Zhuge Zhu stepped forward, and the whole body bloomed with milky white holy brilliance, which was the best method of Confucianism! Under the holy brilliance, the ten corpses actually rose up thick black smoke, and the black smoke was extremely evil, condensed into a human face with fangs, and finally turned into ashes under the light of Haoran righteousness.
"Is this an evil ghost?" Youdao's face was solemn, and someone could drive the evil ghost to cast a curse. "The Demon Curse is a very old curse technique, the legend has long been lost, and no one in the Three Realms has mastered it at present, and it has reappeared in the sky!"
"It's not the method of killing that matters, it's the purpose of killing that matters. Ye Xiao said, how could the mere demon curse stop him. "What exactly are they investigating in the snowy region this trip?"
"It's some bizarre disappearances in the villages below, and it is said that there is also a shadow of a cult. My grandchildren have dreams that they are here to investigate these things. Hey, if I hadn't reported it to Bailu Academy at the beginning, but handled the matter myself..."I have my own way and I regret it a little.
"Cult, this kind of thing naturally needs to be reported to Bailu Academy, grandpa, don't blame yourself anymore. The cousin must have investigated something, and they suffered from this. We might as well check the storage items on them. Youfeng came to suggest.
"Ancient curses, cults, it seems that things are not simple. Ye Xiao sighed, and then asked Youfeng to come and check the relics of the deceased.
Youfeng came to carefully inspect the relics of the ten people and the items in the storage props, but found nothing. "Keep these relics and return them to their families. ”
Youfeng came close to a corpse, looked at the face with wide eyes and distorted eyes, and felt grief in his heart, this is the brother who grew up with him, but this is like this Heaven and Man are separated forever!
"Everything has been checked, has the other party left no traces!" Ye Xiao looked puzzled, the other party did a little too clean, there was a dream that their group came here to investigate, but everything related to the investigation did not exist.
Youfenglai woke up suddenly and remembered something. "By the way, I only checked the storage ring of the dream, but I forgot that he still had something on him. It was a storage jade pendant, I fell in love with him at the same time, and then I gave it to him, he loved it so much that he carried it closely, so in addition to this storage ring, there should be a storage jade pendant. ”
Youfenglai searched around on Youmenglai's corpse, but did not find the piece of space jade pendant that could be stored. "No? Could it be that someone took it?"
Ye Xiao opened the Void Eye, and his Void Eye could see the spatial phantom of the space props. It was with this ability that he discovered the Zishi hidden in the hidden space by Beichen Youying, and then got acquainted with Youyou.
Ye Xiao soon discovered that there was a gray space phantom in the stomach of the dream. "The jade pendant is in his belly!"
Ye Xiao's words shocked everyone, thinking that he had swallowed the jade pendant into his stomach before he died in a dream, and escaped the search of that person. Ye Xiao thought that Youjidao was unwilling to destroy Youmenglai's body, but unexpectedly, Youjidao was much more enlightened than he imagined, so he personally peeled off Youmenglai's stomach and took out the storage jade pendant.
"This is Menglai's last achievement, and this is what he wants us to do. "Youji Dao used the aura to mend the corpse of the dream, and then closed the eyes of the dream. After the on-site investigation is completed, you can finally hold a funeral for your grandson at this moment.
Youfenglai found a few crystal clear white stones from Youmenglai's storage jade pendant, exuding a burst of cold air, as well as a few bloody children's clothes, and some white hair.
"This is a cold crystal?" Youfeng recognized the stones at a glance. "Cold Crystal is a scarce refining material, and there is only one place that can only be found in the northern snowy region, and that is the depths of the Soul Silent Snow Mountain!"
"Lonely Snow Mountain, where did they go in the dream?Could it be that there are any clues there?And what are the bloody children's clothes and these white hairs?"
"It's getting late, I'll have their bodies laid off, and you guys should go back and rest first. "He said to the people.
When everyone returned to the compound, they saw that many white cloths were hanging around the compound, and the mourning hall for those who had dreams had been arranged. Youdao wants to hold a belated funeral for Youmeng.
Ye Xiao and the others were not in a very good mood, the ten fellow disciples died miserably, and the enemy's strange methods gave them a lot of pressure. Youfenglai was even more depressed, his eyes were red, and Ye Xiao didn't know how to comfort him.
At this moment, a servant interrupted everyone's silence, "Young Master, the woman you rescued is awake!"
"Oh?" Ye Xiao and the others followed Youfeng to meet Sister-in-law Zhang, who had just woken up, and he had a hunch that there might be some useful clues on this sister-in-law Zhang.
The woman called Sister-in-law Zhang was holding her daughter Qian'er at the moment, and her face was much calmer. When she saw Youfeng coming, she immediately knelt down, "Thank you for saving your life, thank you." ”
"Get up, you don't have to thank me, just tell us the ins and outs of this. Since you are from Muxue Village, why did you flee from Muxue Village, and why did those villagers arrest you back?" asked Youfenglai.
Sister-in-law Zhang looked at everyone a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it, she still said what happened. "Muxue Village is under the jurisdiction of Lord Lingshen, and a pair of boys and girls need to be worshiped every year to ensure that Muxue Village is safe and secure in the coming year, not disturbed by spirit beasts, and can be given an elixir, so that some people can set foot in the cultivation realm." ”
"Lingshen, what is that, what does he want a boy and a girl to do?" Ye Xiao asked.
"The spirit god is said to be a great god, and we have never had a great calamity since we believed in the spirit god. His only request to us was to offer a pair of boys and girls every year, and the messenger of the spirit gods, the spirit messengers, told us that the children who were enshrined would be adopted by the spirit gods and have a bright future. But... But last year, our village enshrined a pair of boys and girls, and the girl I recognize, it was Xiaoyu not far from my house. Originally, I thought that Lord Lingshen would not lie to us, and those children would really be accepted by him as apprentices and have a bright future. However, one day when I was washing clothes by the river, I had a bloody little shoe that floated down smoothly, and that shoe was worn by Xiaoyu. Light rain... I'm afraid that the light rain has already suffered an accident. However, I did not dare to tell anyone about this, and everyone in the village believed in the spirit gods, and the spirit envoys would come to check on the situation from time to time. Until this year... I was afraid that Qian'er would be like Xiaoyu, so I told them about Xiaoyu, but no one believed me at all, including my timid husband. I had to sneak out with Qian'er, but they still found out and chased me all the way, and then I met a few adults. Sister-in-law Zhang told everyone everything about it.
Sister-in-law Zhang's words made everyone's faces change drastically, especially the bloody little shoes that reminded them of the bloody children's clothes found in the jade pendant in Youmenglai, and those so-called children who were adopted by the spirit god were probably killed long ago.
"Where is the source of the river in Muxue Village?" Ye Xiao asked again.
"My lord, the source of the river that flows through our village is naturally in the Soul Lonely Snow Mountain, which is formed after the snow of the Snow Mountain melts. Sister-in-law Zhang replied.
"Is it the Soul Silent Snow Mountain again, is the cult they said in a dream related to this spirit god?" Ye Xiao pondered, "At present, it seems that there should be clues in the two places of Muxue Village and Soul Silent Snow Mountain, let's start investigating Muxue Village after dawn tomorrow." ”
Leaving from Sister-in-law Zhang's room, there are nine ice coffins neatly placed in the wide courtyard of a large courtyard, which can preserve the corpse for a long time. The bodies of everyone except Dream Lai lay quietly in the ice coffin.
Ye Xiao looked at the nine ice coffins, and only felt that his shoulders were heavy. It is his duty to find out the real culprits of their murder and avenge their revenge.
"I will have their bodies returned to their respective homes in good condition. Youjidao said to Ye Xiao, "They had an accident in Youjia, and I have prepared some compensation for their families, I hope they don't hate me." ”
Ye Xiao nodded, these future matters will naturally be dealt with in their own way. In front of the mourning hall, it is natural to place the remains of a dream. Ye Xiao and others also participated in the whole process of the funeral like guests. has his own way, has his own name, the two true immortals are white-haired people send black-haired people, and there is Fenglai is even more sad, he has no brothers in this generation, and he is his dearest brother in a dream.
"Dreams come... I must... I will definitely avenge you!" Youjidao looked at his grandson's corpse, his eyes full of grief and anger, "The investigation will trouble Ye Xiaozi, if this matter is successfully completed, I will be grateful if I have a family!" Youjidao patted Ye Xiao's shoulder and said.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Ye Xiao and the others went straight to Muxue Village under the guidance of Sister-in-law Zhang.
