More than a dozen officers and soldiers were lying on the ground. His eyes protruded and his tongue protruded, and he was dead. When he died, his face was hideous, and his face was full of horror, as if he had seen something terrible before he died.

Not like, but just.

This large group of living people was strangled to death by a tuft of hair that floated from nowhere, and you said it was terrible or not.

Bai Li stood in the pile of dead people, feeling a little numb. How can such people destroy their bodies?

While he was worried, he saw something moving on the eaves. When I looked closely, it was the hair of the person who had just disappeared after killing someone. At this time, I saw that the front end of the hair was raised, swaying from side to side, like a snake observing the movement, and after confirming that Bai Li was not moving, and there was no weapon in his hand to defend himself, he suddenly stabilized his "head" and pounced on her.

"Presumptuous! The little hair demon dared to bully my family Li'er in front of me, I see that you are tired and crooked. ”

Seeing that the strand of hair was about to pounce on Bai Li, Bai Ze shook his body and blocked her, and promptly pasted a talisman paper on his hair. Bai Li, who was blocked behind him, only heard a crackling sound, followed by a wail. She crept sideways and saw that the strand of hair that seemed to have turned into a black python at the wrist was desperately turning over and whipping in the pile of dead people, and after a while, it stopped at a moment.

"This is the Hair Demon?" Bai Li moved his steps lightly and walked out from behind Bai Ze: "Is it dead?" ”

"No, it's just a rune paper." Bai Ze squatted down, stretched out his index finger and flicked it on the top of that head: "If you want to completely destroy the hair demon, there is only one way." ”

"Burn it with fire?"

"My family Li'er is smart, yes, it is to burn her hair with fire. This so-called hair demon is that there is an evil spirit possessed in this hair, as long as the hair is burned, the evil spirit will be wiped out. ”

"Then what are you still doing in a daze, burn."

"Li'er, don't you want to know who this evil spirit is that is possessed by the hair?"

"Does it have anything to do with me? Or someone I know? Bai Li stared at the strand of hair, and suddenly thought of Qu Mei's bald head. White liar, don't you want to tell me that this hair is Qu Mei's. ”

"It's Qu Mei." Bai Ze nodded.

"Qu Mei's hair, how can Qu Mei's hair become a hair demon? By the way, Qu Mei, she is a ghost, and she shouldn't be captured by those officers and soldiers. ”

"There is no way for the officers and soldiers to capture Qu Mei, but the mage can. If you take a closer look at this courtyard, are there any traces of being burned by rune paper? ”

Bai Ze didn't say anything, Bai Li hadn't noticed it yet, and at this time, he paid attention to it, only to find that there were some traces of burning on the courtyard wall. The traces were very new, and the scorched shape was the same as the rune paper that Bai Ze was holding in his hand.

"It should be like this, not long after we left, those who were in charge of monitoring Ning Lang found that Ning Lang was gone, so they found this courtyard according to the traces you left, and found Ning Lang who was still unconscious in this courtyard. This Ning Lang is the son of Ning Hou, how did this Ning Hou die, although Qu Mei did not say it explicitly, but it is absolutely inseparable from the emperor. I guess that nine times out of ten, this Ning Lang is against the imperial court, but the plan did not come to fruition, but he was poisoned. Ning Lang was poisoned, and if there was no antidote, he would definitely die. Those people must know, so they stayed outside Ning Lang's house, waiting for him to die and go back to his life. ”

"As a result, I was taken to Ning Mansion by Qu Mei and carried Ning Lang back, so those people decided that I was in a gang with Ning Lang, and I was a rebel and a thief?" Bai Li frowned: "Oh my God, I'm just a little cook girl, how can I be involved in the affairs of the court." Qu Mei, Qu Mei, she really wants to kill me. So what now? Can I go and explain to the people in the court, saying that I don't know Qu Mei at all, I don't know Ning Lang, I just ...... Forget it, I guess I can't explain it clearly, and the official will believe that I was lured to Ning Mansion by Qu Mei's ghost. ”

"I also think you can't explain this matter, didn't you hear what they said? It is better to kill a hundred by mistake than to let go of one. So, the next thing we have to do is to find your master, and then leave Huaxi Town to go to a place that they don't know and can't find us. ”

"What you said is all for the future, what now, what now? What to do with the corpses all over the ground? And this hair demon...... I don't understand, why did this good Qu Mei become a demon again? ”

"It should be to protect Ning Lang."

"Protect Ning...... Speaking of which, what about my master? My master is also quite capable, why is it that at the critical moment, people are gone. ”

"I guess I fell drunk somewhere." Bai Ze touched his nose. "Li'er, don't worry, according to your master's ability, he will definitely be fine. As for this demon, I'm afraid I can't keep it. ”

"If you burn your hair, isn't Qu Mei gone?"

"Yes!"

"And what if you don't burn?"

"Even if you don't burn these hairs, Qu Mei won't be able to come back." Bai Ze lit a piece of talisman paper: "Li'er, don't worry, I'll explain to you in detail when I'm done dealing with the demon." ”

Bai Ze let go of his hand, and the burning rune paper fell down and landed on his hair, and the fire snake instantly rolled up all his hair, and burned his hair in the blink of an eye. Just when Bai Li felt uncomfortable in his heart and wanted to sigh, a yin wind blew, and the fire on the ground was instantly blown out, leaving only a little spark, which was swept by the yin wind and floated to the backyard.

Under the dead tree in the backyard, they dug up a skeleton. There was a large stone pressed against the bones, and it is believed that someone killed him and then tied to the stone and sank to the bottom of the lake. A rusty jewelry box was also found next to the bones, which was supposed to belong to the bones. When I opened the jewelry box, there was a jade pendant inside, but the jade pendant was not a complete piece, but the kind that could be separated. There is also a strand of hair wrapped around the jade pendant, the hair is very long, and with a faint fragrance of osmanthus oil, it should belong to a woman.

"What are these bones?"

"Qu Mei, depending on the situation, she should have been sunk into the pond while she was still alive."

"But there's no pond in this house."

"This is the former Qu Mansion, but it should not be the Shangshu Mansion in Qu Mei's mouth, it should be Qu Mei's hometown. But even if it is an old home, it is also a Shangshu mansion, and the mansion should not be so small. I estimate that what we bought is only half of the original Qufu, and in this backyard, there should be a pond, and this tree is next to the pond. ”

"So, Qu Mei was killed?"

"Yes, and when I died, it was quite painful. Because he was resentful when he died, he turned into a wandering spirit and lived in this house. Someone sold this yard to us, but I'm afraid it also has other intentions. ”
