Chapter 13: The Strange Dead

"Mud Alley?" Song Yu subconsciously repeated, his expression changed slightly: "Isn't that the ...... of the incense candle shop" Song Yu subconsciously took two steps in that direction.

"My lord, where are you going?" The voice of the old master stopped Song Yu's footsteps, it stands to reason that since there is a fire in the city, they should also go to the scene as the steward of the peace department, but in comparison, it must be the death of the squire that is more important.

The death of the squire is closely related to the main game line, but the fire in the incense candle shop is ...... Song Yu thought of the paper figures outside the town, as well as Xie Nanshi, who had not returned for a long time, and hesitated for a while. He is afraid of missing the main line, and he is also afraid of missing the opportunity to find bugs, but unfortunately he is somewhat lacking in skills.

He hesitated for a moment, and suddenly looked back at Qiao Yi, who had been following him, according to the normal main line of the game

PC should have hung up.,It's still alive at this time because of the variable of Xie Nanshi.,That is to say, she shouldn't have appeared in the plot at this time.,Naturally, the action is more specific.

PCs are a lot more free. There are no credible people around the target Song Yu, so it is better to give these local ones a try

How much can a PC do?

"Qiaoyi, go over there and have a look." Song Yu thought about it and said one more sentence: "Pay attention to safety, don't go deep." ”

"Okay young master." Qiao Yi answered, then lifted the hem of her skirt and ran in the direction of the fire.

Song Yu retracted his gaze and followed the little guy and his party to Zhang's house. Although it is said to be a big family in the town, Qinghe Town itself is very poor, and it is just a rare three-entry courtyard with high walls, and there are more than a dozen helpers and subordinates at home.

As soon as Song Yu entered the door, he heard the crying from the courtyard, and he could see several women and children crying outside the main door, but the door was closed so tightly that no one entered.

"Master, you just went like this, how can we orphans and widows live!"

I don't know if it's because someone came in, these

The PC cried even harder as if it had been flicked. But the scene of crying at the door is somewhat weird.

Song Yu asked the little guy who led the way: "Where is your old man?" ”

"Inside!" The little guy pointed to the main room, and his expression became a little shrunken.

Song Yu was stunned for a moment, he didn't remember that there were any unspeakable dead people in the main line, but look at these

The attitude of the PC, it is estimated that the appearance of the deceased is not very good-looking.

This time, the old master bookkeeper fell his eyes on Song Yu for the first time, as if he was waiting for his instructions, but no one was willing to open the door first. Song Yu was speechless for a while, hesitantly pushed open the door, but subconsciously closed his eyes the moment the door opened, there was no mosaic protection at this time, and the ghost knew what kind of scene he would see.

He's scared too!

There was no expected bloody smell in the wing, but a faint plum fragrance. But compared to the taste, the picture in the house is not so comfortable.

Song Yu saw at a glance the almost dazzling red, sprinkled all over the room, painting messy plum blossoms on the ground and walls, it was a kind of beauty that was almost magnificent. In the center of this plum blossom, however, was a shriveled corpse that had been drained of blood.

Song Yu's hand was still on the door, and he subconsciously grabbed the doorknob. Not only because of the fear of facing blood, but also because of ...... It's not the same! I don't know why, since he returned to the Newbie Village, many places have become different.

In the first round, Zhang Chen also died at home, opening the beginning of the strange ghost devouring the entire village and town, but there was nothing peculiar about his death, and even misled the player at the beginning that the other party was a suicide or vendetta. It's like this time...... A discerning person can tell at a glance that it is the work of a strange ghost.

The killing methods are different, and the strange ghosts may not be the same, and the experience of a week is completely useless at this time. Maybe...... Instead of going back to the beginning of the game, he's traveling into a world that's the same as the game's setting.

Song Yu stood at the door and took a deep breath, as a modern person, he had really endured too much in the past few days. If it weren't for the repeated brainwashing in his mind with this just game, he probably couldn't help but want to run away.

Song Yu closed the door slowly, his eyes falling on the Zhang family. Although it was the work of the strange ghost, it was difficult to guarantee that the strange ghost was not wearing human skin at this time, so he opened his mouth and asked, "Who found the corpse?" ”

A thin woman said cautiously, "It's a slave family." She looked like I was pitiful, looked at Song Yu timidly with red eyes, and shed a few tears as she spoke: "The slave family was about to wait for the master to go out, and I saw ......"

"It's all you cheap hooves and vixens!" The old lady standing in the center of the crowd glared at the woman fiercely: "Say! Did you hurt me? My miserable son, why did you just leave like this......"

Seeing that the old woman had only said a few words, she looked like she was crying and fainting, and the few people next to her were either following and accusing the woman, or persuading the old lady to mourn. For a while, the courtyard was noisy, and Song Yu listened to it for a while.

"Don't make any noise!" Song Yu shouted with a cold face, not to mention that he really calmed everyone down at this time, and all of them looked at Song Yu quietly for a while.

Song Yu looked around, walked to the stone at the door, and sat down cross-legged: "Don't worry, say slowly one by one, Lord Ben has time." ”

……

At this time, there was no longer the smell of living people in the incense and candle shop. But those strange ghosts and evil spirits have obviously been extinguished, but for some reason there is still a yin and evil aura. The flames were blazing, obscuring the faint source of the evil aura. Xie Nanshi relied on his own cultivation to isolate the flames, but his body was still hot. But as if he didn't feel anything, he was rummaging in the candle shop.

Eliminate evil spirits, this is the first criterion for all Taoist monks who go down the mountain. This is also the reason why he followed Song Yu to Qinghe Town, he wanted to find out the source of the strange ghosts, and of course he also wanted to use Song Yu to find out the truth about time reversal.

"Ahem, ahem." Du Anchen blocked the smoke with his long sleeves and rushed to Xie Nanshi's side, "What are you looking for?" She wanted to pull Xie Nanshi out, but when she saw his serious expression, she sighed helplessly: "I'll help you find it together." ”

Xie Nanshi didn't answer, he remembered the strange place he felt when he first went to the incense and candle shop, it was a shelf full of incense boxes, and it was impossible to see the original appearance that had been burned by fire at this time.

Xie Nanshi's brows furrowed into Sichuan characters, he closed his eyes slightly and pinched his fingers, and when he opened his eyes again, a trace of dark golden light seemed to flash in his eyes, and he said softly: "Break." ”

The light of the fire and the things that were being burned in front of him seemed to be blown away by the breeze, revealing the blackened walls behind them. Xie Nanshi stepped forward, stretched out his hand and groped for a moment on the wall, found a tiny gap and pushed it hard.

"Secret door!" Du Anchen was stunned for a moment, raised his eyebrows slightly, and saw Xie Nanshi walk into the secret door, so he didn't hesitate to follow.

At this time, Qiao Yi had just arrived outside the incense candle shop, and there were already many people who had come to fight the fire, so she grabbed one of them and asked, "Uncle, let me ask what happened here?" ”

When the old man saw that a pretty little girl was asking, he replied patiently: "Just a quarter of an hour ago, there was a sudden water here and there was a fire so big in less than a moment, as if it had appeared suddenly...... Oh, what a sin this has been made! ”

Qiao Yi looked at the fire that engulfed the entire house: "Is there anyone else in the store?" ”

Hearing this, the old man waved his hand and said, "It's not clear, such a big fire...... Let's hope not! ”

"Thank you." Qiao Yi bowed, and saw that the old man waved his hand to put out the fire, so he stood at the back of the crowd and observed silently. If the young master wants to know the situation, she needs to know all the information.

……

The secret room was blocked by walls, and the sealing was surprisingly good, and the fire did not spread in, only some smoke poured in due to Xie Nanshi's action of opening the door. Coupled with the fire above, the entire dark room became stuffy like a steamer. Du Anchen quickly closed the secret door, and subconsciously waved the smoke in front of him with his hand.

As soon as the secret door was closed, the light from the outside could not shine in, and the entire secret passage was dark. Soon, a faint flame lit up in the direction between Nanshi's fingers, it was a piece of rune paper, although there was a flame burning on it, except for the top one, there was no trace of burning in the rest of the place.

"When did this have such a place?" Du Anchen withdrew his gaze from the spell on Xie Nanshi's finger and muttered and looked around. It is a downward passage with candlesticks hanging on both sides of the channel, and the candles on top of it are all left with only a small section at the bottom.

Xie Nanshi flicked his hand, and the light of the fire in his hand lit the only remaining candles at both ends of the wall, and then quickly walked to the end. The first thing that came into view was the statue of the god and ghost enshrined, and under the god and ghost was kneeling the owner of the incense and candle shop who had never been seen, and his motionless figure looked quite strange.

"It's dead." Du Anchen just glanced at it and subconsciously retracted his gaze. People who have long since dried up naturally cannot live, and the appearance of the corpse is not good-looking.

Xie Nanshi didn't feel much, he walked to the corpse first and looked at it, this person didn't have any internal injuries from the outside, as if he had been directly drained from the body and turned into a dry corpse, but the expression on his face was not hideous at all, but as if he had gotten what he wanted, he looked indescribably mysterious in the face of ghosts and gods.

In the face of such a strangely shaped corpse, Xie Nanshi still examined it very carefully, and he did not dislike or be impatient at all. Just after confirming that there was no evil spirit left on the other party's body, after standing up again, he carefully wiped his fingers with a handkerchief, and then discarded the handkerchief directly.

After he had done all this, he couldn't help but cover his lips and cough lightly twice, and then he set his eyes on the strange two-faced ghost statue, which was just an ordinary bronze statue with the naked eye, and there didn't seem to be any problems.

But if there is no problem anywhere, then where does the faint evil spirit come from?
