"What are you talking nonsense? Answer what I asked just now, I can't say it clearly today, don't blame me for not being emotional! ”

Situ Ling didn't know what Zhang Shouyu was thinking, and he was a little restless at the moment.

Zhang Shouyu looked at his micro-expression, smiled slightly, and spread his hands.

"The donor laughed, I met with the donor, where is there anything to talk about. But the donor, you have a good relationship with the third princess, you were able to save his life on the mountain, in my opinion, your friendship is really good. ”

Zhang Shouyu said meaningfully.

My sister also wanted to complain about Zhang Shouyu's avoidance of the important, but she obviously heard what Zhang Shouyu said just now, and she suppressed her temperament for a while and stopped making a sound.

Zhang Shouyu's words were in a fog, but Situ Ling seemed to understand something. His face darkened and he snorted coldly, turned around to check the file, and no longer paid attention to Zhang Shouyu's words.

Zhang Shouyu smiled slightly when he saw this, but his heart was full of mixed tastes.

If everything turned out to be his thoughts, it would be terrible.

Zhang Shouyu had a terrible thought, and he vaguely felt that he had suffered all this...... It seems to be a well-planned game!

Only Zhang Zhenshan knew about his birthday, and Zhang Zhenshan happened to choose to lock the temple and send him down the mountain at this juncture!

It just so happened that the third prince followed him and met Situ Ling, and the sacrificial corpse Chaoshan happened to be destroyed by Situ Ling!

It just so happened that Situ Ling found out that the person behind the scenes seemed to be related to the Zhili warlord, and it happened that Zhang Zhenshan's junior brother and his uncle Liu Siye were the disciples of the Zhili warlords!

Coupled with the cautious Situ Ling's attitude towards the third prince, the accessories on my sister were very similar to those worn by herself...... Could it be that all of this was deliberately designed for today's actions?

Could it be that he Zhang Shouyu is destined to be used to complete the last eye of this sacrificial corpse towards the mountain?

But this is obviously contrary to Zhang Zhenshan's original intention, the master has nurtured him over the years, and letting him go down the mountain is obviously for "some reasons" to save his life.

But no matter how you look at it now, it seems that there is a strong meaning of "New Year's pig fattening and then slaughtering"!

Zhang Beiyu's mind is very messy at the moment.

He doesn't know what the truth is, after all, he is not deeply involved in the world, and he can't see through the depth of people's hearts at all.

He glanced at his sister and Situ Ling, and then looked at the third wife's house through the window. For the first time since he came down the mountain, he felt a chill in his heart.

From this moment on, he could no longer trust anyone.

Situ Ling slowly took off his gold-wire glasses, and while gently wiping them with the corners of his clothes, he opened his mouth to Zhang Shouyu with an indifferent face.

"Xiao Dao Chief, no matter how clever you are, now that your birth date meets the requirements, then you should cooperate with us to continue to investigate the case. You can rest assured that the military will do its best to keep you safe. ”

"If you want to put me under house arrest, you can say bluntly, Adjutant Situ doesn't need to be so twisted and round."

Zhang Shouyuskin grinned the corners of his mouth without smiling, he knew that his body was not up to him, and even if he wanted to understand everything at the moment, he did not have the right to choose the next step independently.

At this moment, a soldier slowly walked into the house and handed a stack of materials to Situ Ling.

"Adjutant Situ, this is the autopsy report that the forensic doctor just made."

"Put it here."

Things have progressed to this point, and Zhang Shouyu has no intention of reading any bullshit reports. However, Situ Ling's face was calm and relaxed, he put on his glasses gracefully, and talked to the two of them while opening the report.

"If you are interested, you can think about it together. I've always liked to share clues, who called me a loving and kind person, hehe. ”

Situ Ling laughed dryly, and although his sister didn't like him, she also stepped forward to take a look. On the contrary, Zhang Shouyu did not move at all, and maintained a posture of meditating cross-legged from beginning to end.

Seeing this, Situ Ling didn't care about him, cleared his throat and began to analyze the autopsy report:

"According to our investigation and sampling, the overall death time span of these forty-nine corpses is three months, and the northwest mountain road in Houshan does not leave all year round, if it weren't for the death of Young Master Zhang that alarmed the military, it is estimated that they would have been kept in the dark until now."

Situ Ling divided the information in his hand into three parts, which were laid out separately.

"The deceased on the top mountain road should have just died, the hair was erected and the corpse was spreading, the skin began to turn black, the blood under the skin was stagnant, and the corpses of Young Master Zhang and the roe deer gang leader were also mixed in it."

"The second part is the middle part, the time of death is about a month to a month and a half ago, the initial phenomenon of liquefaction, the corpse is green and red, but it is not the red-haired zombie in your bull's nose and mouth, I believe in science and never be superstitious."

Situ Ling didn't forget to complain about Zhang Shouyu, and then pointed to the last part of the information.

"The third part is the bottom of the corpse group, the time of death is about three months ago, and it is already obvious that the corpse wax has appeared, and the four corpses I brought back are among them."

After saying everything, Situ Ling opened the bottom of the information.

"This is part of the personal information of the deceased that I obtained from an unannounced interview, I don't know if it is useful."

After finishing speaking, Miss Mi, who had been listening, suddenly interrupted.

"Wait, something is wrong!"

"Where?"

Situ Ling glanced at her.

"Why is the arrangement of this corpse so strange? The bottom is the one who has been dead for the longest time, and the top one has just died, what does this mean? Could it be that the murderer likes to carry the corpse through the corpse? What is the purpose of doing it deliberately? ”

Groov!

When the younger sister said this, Zhang Shouyu, who closed his eyes and recuperated, looked stunned, and Situ Ling was also shocked.

That's right!

The murderer is such a thankless layout...... There's no reason for that!

Zhang Shouyu slowly opened his eyes, grinned at the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly:

"Indeed, if I am a murderer, I have to arrange the corpses from top to bottom for convenience, and since it is a ritual to sacrifice to the mountain god, it is not like saying that it is upside down!"

"Upside down?"

Situ Ling obviously thought of this contradiction, and at this moment, he was poked in the nerve by Zhang Shouyu's words, and it seemed that he suddenly had an epiphany.

"Do you think there is such a possibility......

"What?"

"Although I don't know any bullshit rituals, if the corpses on Wumuyin Mountain are really arranged in reverse, does that mean that they are not sacrificing to the mountain god at all, but are sacrificing something under the mountain? Or is the mountain temple that the mountain people in this area believe in is not on the mountain at all, but underground? ”

Ground floor!

From the beginning of the inference just now, Zhang Shouyu had actually thought of this conclusion, but he couldn't figure it out.

It is impossible for the mountain temple to be underground, that is where he has lived since he was a child, and this is not wrong at all.

But the evidence in front of me has already shown that the direction of this sacrificial ritual is clearly towards the bottom of the mountain, is it possible to say that there are really some unknown existences hidden in the bottom of this vast Wumuyin Mountain?

If so, what is it that would cost forty-nine human lives to sacrifice?

After some inference, the case was once again extended to an unknown and unknown territory.

If it is really inferred according to Situ Ling, what will exist under the Wumuyin Mountain in the Great Xing'an Mountains, and it is worth the murderer to create such a cruel and inhumane collective blood sacrifice?

"It's not impossible, the two donors should remember a detail, although the deceased maintained the posture of climbing the mountain, but the head was twisted 180 degrees towards the bottom of the mountain, which also confirmed that there is a mystery under the mountain."

Zhang Shouyu tasted it again, and while adding fuel to the fire, he noticed that Miss Mi's face was different, but she didn't say anything, and Zhang Shouyu didn't want to ask in detail for a while.

The scene was at a stalemate for a while, and there were no more clues to move forward.

"That's it, sister, you come with me now, and leave it here to the little Taoist to cultivate well. I will order soldiers to pretend to be villagers and strictly control the surroundings, there is still one last day and night left before the three-day period, if the trail leader you calculate correctly, before tomorrow day and night, there should be a final decision! ”

Situ Ling opened the door and made a gesture of please to his sister.

The younger sister glanced at Zhang Shouyu, Zhang Shouyu smiled at her, and then stopped paying attention to the two, and continued to close her eyes and recuperate into a state of concentration.

That night, there were no words.

......

......

Zhang Shouyu didn't light the lamp, just meditated quietly, raising his face in the direction of the broken temple.

In the past, he lived in a dilapidated temple, and he rarely used candles.

It's not that he doesn't like light, but the side room is full of paper people used for [funeral], and seeing it clearly makes him uncomfortable.

Regarding the origin of those paper people and Fushou rice, it is actually related to the mountain temple on the top of the mountain.

I heard that the broken temple was used to worship the mountain god Grandma. Every year on July 15, the villagers from all around the village send leftover Fushou rice and incense money to the mountain. It's a pity that after the food shortage, the situation is not the same as before, and the living can't eat enough, so they don't even mention going to the temple of the five organs of the dead.

Therefore, when the master and apprentice fled to the top of the mountain, the temple was already empty. There was only a pair of white bones left in a robe, and I heard that it seemed to be an old abbot who was too old to go down the mountain.

The temple has become a borderless place, and the old cow nose naturally takes the calf-nosed dove to occupy the magpie's nest.

After all, this yellow brick house is extremely rare, in addition to eating and carrying water with a little effort, it is a good place to avoid disasters and eliminate disasters.

Zhang Zhenshan originally commented on the broken temple, but now Zhang Shouyu no longer believes in this.

At the beginning of the tenth year of the Republic of China, the famine gradually passed, and the pilgrims who came to the temple to offer Fushou rice returned. The master and apprentice simply put on robes during the day and pretended to be, and then changed back into Taoist robes at night and ate the dead man's tribute.

"Master, Master, in a day's time, will I be alive or dead?"

Zhang Shouyu pointed to a hexagram, and the hexagram showed that the Black Emperor was faint at night, mixed with light and dark, and the dragon was trapped, unprovoked and unpredictable.

"It's a hexagram without a hexagram."

Zhang Shouyu has long been accustomed to this.

In the past, he used to calculate every day on the mountain, and Zhang Shouyu counted the good fortune and evil of the day.

This method of divination is completely different from that used by those charlatans, and it is one of the eight earthly branch secret techniques of the "Palm Qiankun".

The master said that this method is not negligent, but Zhang Shouyu always calculates his birthday, and the hexagrams obtained are all chaotic and difficult.

He didn't understand why his fate was so treacherous, and he also asked Zhang Zhenshan if there was a guy like him who couldn't count his fate. Zhang Zhenshan shook his head every time and pouted his old mouth, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Since it is unfathomable, let it be unpredictable.

Zhang Shouyu smiled slightly bitterly, and sat quietly until the third watch in the middle of the night.

There were constant footsteps outside the house, which should have been the camouflaged militia sent by Situ Ling to "closely protect" him.

At three o'clock on the fourth watch, all the militia outside the house had stopped, but the sound of rustling did not stop.

Zhang Shouyu opened his eyes and looked at the window, and faintly saw a string of firelight flowing in the distance.

"It's ......"
