Xiang Zhongyin nodded and said, "I'll take a look." With that, he carefully examined the corpse in the coffin, sometimes crouching, sometimes staring, very carefully observing the surroundings of the corpse. Hong Yan, who was in the back, was silent and stared at the corpse.

Sun Yu looked at Hong Yan, whose face did not change, and couldn't help but say, "Aren't you afraid?" ”

Hong Yan glanced at him, her expression was calm, and she said calmly: "Follow him, I've seen all corpses." ”

Sun Yu frowned and felt strange. Hong Yan's tone was too flat, and there was no respect for Xiang Zhongyin in her words, so she couldn't help but wonder if they were really a master-servant relationship? However, after all, this is someone else's housework, and it is inconvenient for him to ask.

At the same time, Xiang Zhongyin seemed to notice something and exclaimed. He turned his head and glanced at Hong Yan. Hong Yanxiu's chin tilted slightly, and her willow eyebrows frowned slightly, as if she understood something.

Seeing the strange expressions of the two, Sun Yu felt confused and asked, "What happened?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin's face was deep, and he said in a low voice: "Everyone is born with the characteristics of the five elements, and if the corpse warlock wants to refine the corpse, he will also cast a spell according to the personal five elements. For example, some people belong to water, and when the necromancer refines the corpse, he will use the method of water burial to turn it into a water corpse. ”

Sun Yu is just a quick catcher in the yamen, not a corpse warlock, although he is involved in these things, he is not profound. What Xiang Zhongyin said was beyond his comprehension, so he listened to it full of doubts and fought as big as his head. Sun Yu asked, "What do you say have to do with these murder cases?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin was silent for a while before he said: "These people were removed from the heart, liver, spleen, kidney and other parts, which happen to correspond to the five elements, which means that some people want to refine the corpse." ”

Sun Yu tilted his head and asked, "However, if you want to refine the corpse, shouldn't it be kept intact?" Besides, the corpses are all here, how can that person refine the corpses? ”

Xiang Zhongyin raised his head, his eyes shot a cold color, and said in a deep voice: "If he doesn't want these corpses, it means that he plans to reorganize a corpse, and with these parts, I guess this person is afraid that he will refine the Five Elements Corpse." As soon as these words came out, Hong Yan's body shook slightly, although Sun Yu didn't know what the Five Elements Corpse was, but he could also feel that the atmosphere of the two was solemn and full of solemnity.

Sun Yu suddenly remembered something and asked, "You just said the Five Elements, is there still one person who will die?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin said: "It should be so." ”

Sun Yu was stunned, and suddenly, his mind turned, and he said happily: "In this way, the murderer is looking for people regularly, if we can know his next target in advance, then we can find a way to catch him?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin looked embarrassed, and said in a deep voice: "There are so many people in Yancheng, if we check them one by one, we are afraid that the dead will appear again, and we have not yet reached half of the progress." ”

Sun Yu was confused when he heard this, and asked after a while: "Then what should we do?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin sank, countless thoughts swept through his heart like lightning, and after a while, he raised his head and said solemnly: "As long as it is a corpse warlock, I am more or less vigilant about this." The government might as well reveal this matter, although it will cause panic in people's hearts, but it can also make the corpse warlock understand that someone wants to refine the Five Elements Corpse. ”

Sun Yu was slightly stunned and puzzled: "Even if these corpse warlocks know, what can they do?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin said categorically: "It's not a secret, the Five Elements Corpse is a taboo for corpse warlocks. Although it is not explicitly stipulated, there is a consensus among all sects and factions decades ago that the Five Elements Corpse must not be refined. There were many sects gathered in Yancheng, such as the Night Owl Sect, the Ling Yu Sect, the Tang Sect, and the Nine Shadow Towers, etc., and if they knew about it, they would definitely be on strict guard against this person. ”

Sun Yu wondered, "Why are they afraid?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin's gaze met him for a moment, and he said slowly: "Because the Five Elements Corpse is different from ordinary corpse refining, the person whose internal organs are removed must also be a corpse warlock. ”

Sun Yu was stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly realized, because the target of the murder was the necromancer, and in order to protect themselves, this group of people may of course provide favorable news, and even arrest this person, so as not to be killed by the pond fish.

Sun Yu was very happy and said, "Thank you Xiang Gongzi for mentioning it, I will send someone to reveal this matter." By the way, I almost forgot to tell you that the dead who were taken away for burial were criminals, so there was no pressure from above. The words fell, and the three of them walked out of the mortuary warehouse one after another, Sun Yu seemed to have found a glimmer of life, full of hope between his eyebrows, and walked towards the yamen.

After Xiang Zhongyin said goodbye to Hong Yan, he got into the carriage and planned to return to Sun's mansion. On the carriage, Hong Yan glanced at him and asked, "Why didn't you tell him something else?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin smiled indifferently and said, "It turns out that you also found out." ”

Hong Yan glanced at him and said angrily: "I'm not a fool, how can I not see this." Hong Yan frowned and said, "Not only corpse warlocks, but even people who walk the rivers and lakes know the Five Elements Corpse very well. The murderer's intentions are blatant and too suspicious, what do you think is the reason? ”

Xiang Zhongyin pondered for a moment, looked out the window, and said in a low voice: "It's nothing more than two possibilities, one is that the murderer is a boring person who deliberately creates chaos. Second, the murderer wanted to use this incident to tell everyone that someone was refining the Five Elements Corpse. ”

Hong Yan said solemnly: "Which one do you think?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin took her into his arms and leaned into her ear and said: "Sun Yu just said that those people are criminals, if it is not a coincidence, it must be deliberate by that person." The man's refusal to kill innocents indiscriminately and his insistence on it is a warning to the world. ”

Although Hong Yan is full of arrogance and intimidating appearance, she is just a woman in front of Xiang Zhongyin. Instead of struggling, she leaned sideways to his left shoulder and asked, "Why did that man do that?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin pondered for a moment, scratched his nose, and explained: "If my guess is correct, the person who really refines the corpse may make the person who reminds him helpless, or for some reason, it is difficult to stop it. For this reason, that person set up a suspicious array, so that we can understand that there is a corpse warlock refining the five elements of corpses, and he wants us to solve this matter. ”

The light coming in from the window made the bright red Yan intoxicating, and she said slowly: "The method of killing those people is clean and neat, and such people are afraid of it, so it can be seen that the person he wants to deal with must be very powerful." ”

Xiang Zhongyin said helplessly: "So far, no one has refined the Five Elements Corpse, just because this matter is cumbersome and complicated, and it is as difficult as climbing to the sky. If you are a corpse warlock who has no ability, you will die due to the backlash on the way to refining the corpse, so the person refining the corpse must be very powerful, otherwise he will not easily gamble with his life. ”

Hong Yan's face sank, and she said coldly: "Corpse Maniac, Corpse Venerable or Corpse King?" Or someone from the Tang Sect? These people are already in the high ranks of necromancers, would they really take the risk of doing such a thing? ”

Xiang Zhongyin sighed and said with a wry smile: "People are always dissatisfied, and in order to reach a higher place, they will do whatever it takes. If it weren't for that, how could I have chosen to leave everything behind and wander the mountains and forests in the first place? ”

Hong Yan was stunned in her heart, with a worried look on her face, and said in a deep voice: "If they know that you are a corpse immortal, they will definitely come to challenge, and then you will have countless battle books." ”

Xiang Zhongyin sarcastically said: "This is not good, you should like this, right?" ”

Hong Yan's eyes were cold, and she snorted coldly: "The master's move is very good, but if it is a group of mosquitoes wandering around, it will only make people feel disgusted." ”

Xiang Zhongyin nodded and said, "That's the same." ”

The two sides were silent for a moment, and the carriage drove slowly, as if it was about to arrive at Sun's mansion. Hong Yan raised her pretty face, her eyes were cold, and she asked in a surprisingly gentle tone, "After being separated for so long, is this the only thing you have to do?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin looked at her for a long time, his heart moved, he took her slender and slender snow-white jade hand, leaned forward slightly, the lips of the two touched lightly for a while, Hong Yanfang's body shook slightly, and her starry eyes were half-closed.

In an instant, the carriage stopped, and Xiang Zhongyin understood that Sun's mansion had arrived. Hong Yan reluctantly moved away, her eyes were as enthusiastic as fire, and Xiang Zhongyin almost blurted out that she asked the groom to go around Sun's mansion a few times to buy him more time.

After returning to Sun's house, I wanted to renew my affection after returning to the room, but my next person came to report that Sun Yuer was looking for him. Xiang Zhongyin was very strange, could it be that Sun Yuer's poison had relapsed?

Although he didn't know the reason, Xiang Zhongyin still followed his subordinates to the other courtyard. As soon as he arrived at the wing, Sun Yu'er saw him, her originally sad face suddenly brightened, and after waving away her subordinates, she pounced on him without reserve and hugged him tightly.

Xiang Zhongyin asked, "What happened?" ”

Without waiting for Sun Yu'er to answer, a person walked out from behind the screen, and that person was Xing Xuan. He said in a deep voice, "After you went out this morning, someone sneaked into the courtyard. That man was a servant of Sun's house, the manservant in charge of the stables. ”

Xiang Zhongyin said disapprovingly: "When the people of the Sun Mansion come to the other courtyard, how can they be regarded as sneaking in?" ”

Sun Yu'er's delicate body trembled slightly, and she said: "In the courtyard where I am located, ordinary men are not allowed to enter, even if it is a subordinate. It is unforgivable that he came without my message, that he had broken the rules, and that he had taken the opportunity to enter my room. ”

Xiang Zhongyin was surprised: "He entered your room? ”

Xing Xuan grabbed his eyes and echoed: "At that time, Miss Sun and the maidservant were walking in the courtyard and did not notice this. I hid in the hallway, and the man didn't notice me, and I happened to bump into him and slipped into the room. ”

Xiang Zhongyin asked, "Do you know why he entered the room?" ”

Xing Xuan nodded and responded, "I saw that he was looking for that mulberry leaf powder." He flipped the medicine bag, as if to confirm the weight of the medicine bag. ”

Xiang Zhongyin hugged Sun Yuer's thin waist, collected his thoughts, and said indifferently: "I'm afraid he is Su Xiaowan's eyeliner, because Sun Yuer drank less of her rock sugar lotus seed soup after I mentioned it, so she was suspicious." ”

Xing Xuan's eyes shot a sharp light, and he said solemnly: "Then in this way, wouldn't we be exposed?" ”

Xiang Zhongyin showed a thoughtful look, and said after a while: "It seems that in the near future, she will have a move, you must stay by Sun Yu'er's side all the time, if there is anything abnormal, you will bring her to me." ”

Xing Xuan saluted and promised, "I understand." ”
