That night, as Zhang Shouyu expected, the six funeral officials all disposed of the bodies in the way they said.

At three o'clock, six coffins wrapped in iron locks slowly left the village, each carried by four relatives of the deceased.

The chains on the coffin were specially treated, and one of the sections was broken with a flaw, so that after a bumpy mountain road, it would break completely at some point, and the locals would choose to stop the coffin for burial at the broken place.

Zhang Shouyu and Miss Mi did not get involved in the burial, but entered the mountain from the inaccessible northwest side according to the original plan, and it didn't take long for them to return to the place where they first met to sacrifice the corpse to the mountain.

Except for the four corpses that were carried away by Situ Ling, the rest of the corpses were still as treacherous and terrifying as they had seen before.

Zhang Shouyu and Miss Mi hid in the foothills on one side, keeping quiet for each other and not speaking.

Zhang Shouyu wanted to ask her about the origin of the neck pendant again, but he also knew that now was not the time to talk nonsense, and the four sergeants who came with them were all loaded with guns, obviously not only to protect them, but also to fear that he and Miss Yu would escape without permission.

I have to say that this Situ Ling is old and thoughtful, and if he can have such a style of acting at this age, it is no wonder that he will become Zhang Hongye's confidant.

Midnight is quiet.

In addition to the smell of corpses, it is still the smell of corpses.

They waited for nearly three hours before Situ Ling's figure slowly appeared.

After meeting again, Zhang Shouyu found that he was covered in tattered clothes, sweating profusely and covered in blood, as if he had just experienced a big battle.

Seeing this, the accompanying sergeant immediately stepped forward to help, but Situ Ling waved his hand to indicate that it was not necessary.

"The blood is someone else's, not mine, and I'm not hurt."

"Master Situ, you still said that you don't know martial arts."

Zhang Shouyu teased indiscriminately, but Situ Ling didn't take his stubble, but took out an object and handed it to them.

Zhang Shouyu took a look and found that it was an epaulette, with a green and yellow ring in the middle, and four red and white outlines of maple leaves in the southeast, west, and northwest.

"What is this?"

Zhang Shouyu had just come down the mountain, and he didn't know this kind of thing at all, but Miss Mi had a sharp eye and saw the origin of things at a glance.

"The badge of the warlord of Naoli?"

"Not bad!"

Seeing that Miss Yi recognized it, Situ Ling also hated it. He saw that Zhang Shouyu was still confused, so he explained more.

"Xiaodao Chief, at the moment, the warlords are fighting in the north and the south, and the warlords of the Feng family who serve me in the north are in charge, and the south is in charge of the warlords of Zhili."

"Lord Situ, do you mean that these sacrificial corpses face the mountain...... In fact, it is the handiwork of the warlord of Zhili? ”

"Most likely, this badge was worn by the Assassin who had just plundered the funeral procession in the mountain path, and it should not be wrong. The last time we encountered the zongzi in the corpse group, it seems that it should also be from the Naoli warlord troublemaker! ”

"What about those who take the bodies?"

"Killed a few, and the rest ran away with the coffin, I didn't have enough people tonight, so I didn't dare to chase deeply."

Situ Ling said righteously, but Zhang Shouyu laughed and did not respond.

Zhang Shouyu looked at Miss Yi, it was obvious that she didn't fully trust Situ Ling, after all, all this was too much of a coincidence.

It is impossible for the person who took the corpse to wear a military uniform to loot at night, let alone carry the military badge at any time, and Situ Ling acted alone, and in the end there was no corpse left, which is really a bit unreasonable.

Naoli Warlord...... Liu Siye?

Master did say that Liu Siye took refuge in the warlord of Zhili, but now that the final perpetrator has not been revealed, Zhang Shouyu cannot make arbitrary judgments.

Situ Ling also sensed everyone's suspicions, he obviously didn't want to stay too long at such a sensitive node, and immediately took out a stack of materials and handed it to Zhang Shouyu.

"Chief, no matter what, we only have one last chance left at the moment, there is still one corpse left to gather this corpse sacrifice to the mountain, we will find this dying person in the Yin Time first, and there should still be a chance to make arrangements in advance!"

"Okay, give me half an hour."

Zhang Shouyu didn't say a word, and immediately sat on the ground to start the deduction, while Situ Ling and Miss Mi came to the group of corpses, and it seemed that they had found some clues, and the two of them discussed fiercely, and their faces became more and more ugly.

Half an hour later, Zhang Shouyu stood up with a dejected face, came to their side and shook his head.

"Master Situ, do you have any other information? The eight characters of birth on this information are not in line with the dark and heavy moons and bright days. ”

"How is it possible, this is the information of all the people in Shili Eight Villages!"

Situ Ling was full of suspicion of Zhang Shouyu when he heard this, obviously doubting the truth of his words, Zhang Shouyu was also a little worried for a while, but at this time, a terrifying idea suddenly came to his mind.

"Master Situ, Miss Yi, although it is not polite to say this, can I ...... Tell me about the two of you's birthdays? ”

As soon as these words came out, Situ and the two instantly understood what they meant, but Zhang Shouyu asked the right thing, and they didn't bother immediately, and wrote it with a pen and paper and handed it to him.

Zhang Shouyu looked at the two strings of birthdays in his hand, the corners of his mouth buzzed for a long time and then the calculation was completed, and his heart sank to the bottom.

"What's wrong, Dao Chief?"

Situ Ling saw that Zhang Shouyu's expression was different, and immediately asked him, but Zhang Shouyu's face was pale at this moment, and he pointed his finger at himself very reluctantly.

"The donor is the donor...... None of your birthdays match the ...... But if the poor road is not bad, it will be ...... two days later I am the final candidate to be killed in this ritual of sacrificing corpses to the mountain! ”

"What did you say?"

Hearing this, the two of them shrugged their eyebrows, but they were not sympathetic to Zhang Shouyu, the younger sister pursed her chin and thought for a long time, and then slowly shook her head.

"Dao Chief, what you say is unreasonable. You are not from these ten miles and eight villages, and it is impossible for the people behind the scenes to calculate you! ”

"My sister is right, if there is really no one near the last person who meets the number of heavy mourning techniques, it can only mean that the direction of your previous reasoning is all wrong, or the coincidence of the blind cat touching the dead mouse. Of course, it may be that you have deceived us, you are not a Taoist priest at all, you are a person from these ten miles and eight villages! ”

Situ Ling pushed his gold-wire glasses, he never let go of his suspicions about Zhang Shouyu, and at this moment, the flaws were out, so he naturally chased after him.

"The two donors laughed, my ancestral home in Guanzhong followed my master to the north to escape the famine and came to Heilongjiang."

Zhang Shouyu only defended this sentence, and this explanation is obviously not convincing. At this moment, he meditated cross-legged, closed his eyes and ignored the two of them.

It's not that he's pretending to be cold, but in fact, Zhang Shouyu has also noticed the suspicions in the incident, and he needs to think about the ins and outs.

As my sister said, he is not a citizen of these ten miles and eight villages at all, and he has never taken a step down from the world for many years since he and Zhang Zhenshan lived on the top of the mountain and broke the temple.

He was also very sure that the previous calculation was not wrong, but there was an obvious loophole in the whole thing - the corpse Chaoshan set up by the behind-the-scenes planner was already complete, which was caused by Situ Ling deliberately destroying the four corpses to create flaws.

So is it possible that this move is likely to be unexpected by the people behind the scenes?

That is to say, the behind-the-scenes planner wanted to find four corpses to complete the sacrificial corpses, but in the end they found that there was still one person missing......

If it is such a coincidence, then Situ Lingqi is even more suspicious.

After the sacrifice of the corpse Chaoshan was destroyed, the four corpses were no longer complete, "coincidentally" there was only one person missing from the suitable person for the formation in Shili Eight Villages, "Coincidentally" he was caught by Situ Ling in the village at this juncture, and "Coincidentally" he was still the most suitable person for the birth of the eight characters.

A "coincidence" is a coincidence, so many put together, Zhang Shouyu can't help but be cautious and suspicious.

If it is really Situ Ling's premeditation, it can only be said that this son's scheming is as deep as an abyss.

Could it be that Situ Ling knows a lot about Feng Shui, but he has always been wearing the skin of an "atheist who believes in science"?

Zhang Shouyu slowly glanced at Situ Ling, who was aggressive at the moment, obviously waiting for his explanation.

Zhang Shouyu ignored it, and he looked at the data files again, as well as Situ Ling's red eyes for the corpse test. Putting aside whether these are true or not, Zhang Shouyu expects that he will not understand his own way of calculation nine times out of ten.

There is no other reason, Zhang Shouyu's feng shui deduction method is the upper eight secret techniques of Zhang Zhenshan's single lineage, and there is no second heir in the world besides him.

According to Zhang Zhenshan, the ancestors of the upper eight sects have been glorious lintels for many generations. For example, the ancestor Zhang Zhiming, who was a big man who went to the East China Sea to seek immortals during the Northern Song Dynasty. And the ancestor Zhang Xianlong is also a famous Taoist priest of the Yuan Dynasty who has cultivated the great immortality of feathering.

Zhang Shouyu has always been suspicious of these, and has always thought that he is a liar, but in the end he still worships Zhang Zhenshan as a teacher. After all, he was lonely at that time, and the food shortage was not a joke, rather than starving to death in a daze, it was better to follow this god stick and eat and wait for death. After all, in those years of cannibalism, Zhang Zhenshan could still get food, which was the greatest manifestation of supernatural powers.

According to Zhang Zhenshan, the eight secret techniques are unpredictable and almost omnipotent. But later in the Huanggutun area, Zhang Zhenshan was caught stealing the widow's snake melon, and was surrounded by a group of villagers and lame half of his calf. The old Taoist melon didn't eat it, but his legs were really "snakes". His sharp teeth that went up to heaven and earth also died down with his lameness, and they wilted like frosted eggplants.

Putting aside this old lame man, whether it is the heavy funeral deduction or the white tiger's den measurement, these are the unique secret techniques of the upper eight sects. That is to say, it is impossible for Situ Ling to know these in advance, and besides, he does not know Zhang Shouyu's birthday......

Wait, birthday?

Zhang Shouyu's brows furrowed, and he found that things were not simple.

If you say...... What if Situ Ling really knew his birth date in advance?

Zhang Shouyu couldn't help but think of Master's words:

"Yu'er, you have a maximum of seven seven and forty-nine days, and the jade pendant will be given to the Zhang family, and you will know the number of follow-up roads. I hope that people's hearts are not ancient, if the Zhang family refuses to make a move...... I'm afraid you'll be dead! ”

Seventy-seven forty-nine days.

Seventy-seven forty-nine corpses.

Is it really pure coincidence?

Thinking of this, Zhang Shouyu slowly looked up at Situ Ling, and asked the other party a little stunned.

"Master Situ Shi, dare to ask you whether you were investigating the case when you were exploring the corpse group, or did you deliberately create an opportunity to wait for me there?"
