Early in the morning of the second day, Ye Shuhua dressed neatly and prepared to go to the Ming Temple.

Bamboo Shadow drove, and Ji Cui followed in the carriage.

Before leaving, Li Zhen followed in.

"I'll rest today, and I'll go with you."

Ye Shuhua was puzzled: "I remember you didn't say it last night?" ”

He smiled, "yes, that's forgetting to tell you." ”

When Li Zhen was there, Ji Cui also got out of the carriage and drove the horse with Zhuying.

Coming to the Ming Temple, Ye Shuhua and Li Zhen burned incense and worshiped the Buddha together.

Today is a good day to pray for blessings, and many people come.

After Ye Shuhua and the others came in to burn incense and worship the Buddha, the road they came to was blocked by the people of Wuyang.

They didn't want to reveal their identities, so they naturally walked around the temple for the time being.

It just so happens that Ye Shuhua can also observe the surroundings more.

She came to the Ming Temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha is secondary, and this is the most important.

Ye Shuhua and Li Ji walked side by side, most of the temples were red walls and gray tiles, and Ming Temple was no exception.

The two walked towards a place where there were few people, and somehow turned east and west, and came to a hexagonal pavilion.

Opposite the gazebo is a pear tree, the pear blossoms are in full bloom, and it is unique to sit here and watch the scenery.

Naturally, the two of them sat down here.

"I didn't expect the temple to have this pear grove." Ye Shuhua said.

Li Zhen glanced at the white pear blossoms, "Thanks to this pear forest, we can still sit down and enjoy a thing or two." ”

"yes."

Ye Shuhua sighed, breathed a long sigh of relief, and looked at the pear blossoms full of trees.

At this time, two little monks, each carrying a bucket of water, were saying something to each other.

One of the short men said, "Go and water the pear tree inside, for I dare not go." ”

"If you don't dare to go, will I dare to go? I heard that it was haunted during the day, so I didn't go! ”

"But Senior Brother told us to go and water a few pear trees there today, otherwise we will all be punished when we go back."

The little man was in a hurry.

The tall little monk was silent for a while before he said, "Otherwise, how about we go together?" ”

There was no way around it, and the little monk thought about it and nodded.

Then the two of them looked at the innermost part of the pear tree, and as if they had mustered up great courage, they took a deep breath and rushed in.

"There will be ghosts in the temple too?" Ye Shuhua muttered, raising her eyebrows and looking at the two gray figures.

Li Zhen also thoughtfully, "Zi is silent, and the strange force is confused." There are ghosts, I'm afraid that someone is making trouble. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, two screams came from the two little monks who rushed into the pear grove.

Ye Shuhua and Li Zhen glanced at each other, and immediately went straight inside.

The pear blossoms are sparkling, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance of pear blossoms.

The feet are also covered with pear petals, and it is pleasant to stand in the pear grove.

But it wasn't until I came to the innermost part that I smelled a strong smell of blood, and this originally pleasant scene was instantly destroyed by the cold corpse and bright red blood.

The two little monks were already dead of rage.

And it was the seven orifices that bled to death.

Zhuying stepped forward to check, there were no obvious external injuries on his body, and he also made a preliminary diagnosis and was not poisoned.

Ye Shuhua looked at the forest and the high wall behind the forest.

"Is there really a ghost?"

Li Zhen stared at the two corpses and didn't think so, "If there are ghosts, we should be dead now." ”

There was a murder in the Ming Temple, and he died in a haunted place in the depths of the pear grove that was rumored to be rumored for many days.

Originally, they were just two inconsequential monks who died, but when Li Zhen and Ye Shuhua saw it, they alarmed the Criminal Department, and the Criminal Department began to intervene in the investigation.

Ye Shuhua felt that his dream and the picture of the Ming Temple that appeared were very likely to be related to this murder, so he also offered to investigate together.

Li Zhen has a court to be busy, and she only told her to pay more attention to safety.

Ye Shuhua responded, and went to the Ming Temple again.

When he arrived at the Ming Temple, Xing Rong, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was already on the scene.

Recently, a large number of talents have poured in, and the top three Sumu Zhongxun have all been favored by the prince of Li Wei.

He is the secretary of the Criminal Department, and he has not contributed much to the prince of Li Wei recently, and this time there is such a case, he naturally wants to seize the opportunity to perform well.

So that Li Wei Shizi knows that he is an absolutely useful existence.

Ye Shuhua didn't care about Xing Rong's Xiao Jiujiu, she only wanted to find out the secret behind this matter.

and those who hide behind ghosts and gods.

Xing Rong saw that Ye Shuhua was also here, so he didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly saluted.

After a while, the autopsy came.

"My lord, the preliminary judgment shows that the two of them were scared to death, and moreover, the qi and blood surged upward, rushing to the top of the head, and then there were signs of bleeding from the seven orifices." ”

"Scared to death? Are you sure? Xing Rong asked with a twisted eyebrows.

The man replied, "Exactly." ”

"What did they see and be scared to death?"

"This, this little one doesn't know." He was a little overwhelmed by Xing Rong's question.

On the side, Ye Shuhua only paid attention to the fact that the two of them were scared to death.

Scared to death, and scared to death, I had to see what a terrible thing.

And the two of them still saw it in the daytime.

The daylight is abundant, no worse than the night, and being scared like this must be extremely terrifying and terrifying.

Ye Shuhua crossed over to the two corpses again.

The first people to find their bodies were her and Liji, who had not yet been reported to the authorities, and she did not examine them closely.

Looking at it carefully, they did not have the eye of a needle, nor did they have any sword wounds, nor did they show signs of poisoning.

Moreover, their pupils were sharply open, their mouths were also very large, and their faces were tense, and from these aspects, they were indeed scared to death.

The reason for the deceased could not be found on the body, so the only way to go to the scene was to take a look.

"Lord Xing, I want to go to the scene to have a look."

When Xing Rong heard the haunted pear forest, his face tightened, and his body couldn't help but tremble.

"Second Imperial Princess, it's very dangerous there."

Ye Shuhua smiled and said, "It's okay, I just want to go and see." ”

At this time, the sky was getting dark, and Xing Rong was extremely afraid.

Anyway, he won't go, seeing that Ye Shuhua insisted on going, he also had selfish intentions.

"Then it's better to do this, Xiaguan sent two of his subordinates to follow the second imperial concubine, just to check what other clues there are."

Ye Shuhua nodded and left.

The two men flinched behind them and walked towards the pear grove with a look of horror on their faces.

Originally, the pear blossoms, the scenery was pleasant, and the place was comfortable and comfortable, but it became a place where everyone was terrified of the dead.

Ye Shuhua looked at the pear blossoms on the tree and felt that she was really blind to this good situation.

Just thinking about it, I have come to the wall, the place where the dead died.

As seen in the daytime, there is nothing strange about it.

It was already getting dark, Zhuying and Ji Cui were carrying lanterns, Ye Shuhua took one and walked to the wall.

Bai Ri only glanced at it in a hurry, but did not look closely, and now when he looked closely, this wall looked like it had just been built.

Moreover, I didn't feel anything when I stood in the distance, but when I walked in front of me, I felt that this wall was a cut higher than ordinary walls.

"Bamboo Shadow, go see what's on the other side of the wall."

Bamboo Shadow led the order to jump directly and jump to the wall.

The temple was built on the top of Mount Myeong, and the entire summit was almost covered by the temple.

Sure enough, Zhuying said: "It's a cliff." ”

Ye Shuhua nodded, and was about to turn around to leave, but saw the two guards of the Criminal Department following behind him.

The two of them were frightened at first, hugged each other, pointed to the bamboo shadow standing on the wall, and trembled: "Ghost, ghost, ghost!" ”

After shouting, they ran away without looking back.

Ye Shuhua felt inexplicable, so she turned her head and raised her eyes.

That picture made her heart startled for a moment, only to see that behind the bamboo shadow, there was a behemoth.

The thing was so dark that I couldn't see what it looked like, but I could only see that countless tentacles were frantically attacking the bamboo shadow.

"Bamboo Shadow be careful!"

Before Ye Shuhua could speak, Bamboo Shadow took the first step to sense that something was wrong, and a front flip narrowly dodged those tentacle attacks.

Ye Shuhua looked at the monster steadily, trying to see what it was.

But it's too dark to see clearly.

But she didn't leave, she wanted to see what this monster was!

Seeing that she was attacking Ye Shuhua like crazy when she took down her tentacles, she took out a dagger from her waist and prepared to attack the other party.

But when she took the dagger to block it, she saw that the black thing disappeared out of thin air.

There is no trace at all.

She turned her head to look at Bamboo Shadow, who understood, and flew up the wall again, looking out.

There was a black press below, and there were dense branches, and nothing else could be seen.

She shook her head.

"Nothing, miss."

Ye Shuhua stared, thoughtful.

He didn't say anything more, just waved his hand and left.

Su Mu and Zhong Xun, with the help of Xu Yanying, were both used by Li Wei on the surface.

In the court, Li Wei's power is directly beyond the three princes.
