There were no wounds on the man's body.

Ye Caitang said: "If Brother Xie's painting is realistic, then the wound on this man's body must be deep and narrow, so it is invisible on the corpse at first glance." ”

Xie Zhi is not a bad taste, a person who will make such boring jokes. Five days, counting the back and forth, if they are quick to whip up, they are already four or five hundred miles away, and they must have a deep meaning when they travel thousands of miles to whip up their horses.

Fortunately, Xie Zhi is not playing a game of guess, guess, guess with them.

There was also a letter inside.

Xie Zhi left the capital and went all the way east, and three days ago, he arrived at a place called Aiyan Township.

The people rested.

said that Hai Wangtian and Xie Zhi went out, but it was impossible for only the two of them to go out, so they naturally had to bring their entourage. Even if he travels in a low-key manner, he brings three or four entourages with him, and is responsible for taking care of food and daily life along the way.

Hai Wangtian's status, although he is not a dignitary, has been pampered for many years. There is no such thing as being old and suffering to deal with.

Xie Zhi is naturally too, except for being often scolded by Ye Caitang for a few words, he has never suffered a loss.

There was no inn in the village where I settled today, so I found a family that looked the cleanest and cleanest to spend the night, gave money, and gave a little as I wanted, and the villagers who gave them almost offered them as the God of Wealth.

Then it's time to eat and rest.

But that night, a murder occurred in the village.

When Xie Zhi was woken up in his sleep, he had an ominous premonition, and when he heard the fellow talk about it, he was even more depressed.

Because Xia Yue and Ye Caitang went out, nine times out of ten, they went out for the case, so everyone sometimes ridiculed them, you are a little evil, where to go to the dead.

In fact, it is because of the dead that people go, not because they go to die.

Is it finally your turn now?

Xie Zhi got out of bed.

The village was so big, with a total of dozens of households and hundreds of people, and even in the middle of the night, the terrible screams of the dead people quickly spread throughout the village, waking everyone up.

After Xie Zhi went out, he saw that Master and Tai Qinghua had both gotten up.

So he told everyone to rest and go and see the situation for themselves. Hai Wangtian was old and wanted to rest, so he went to sleep, and Tai Qinghua followed Xie Zhi to see the dead.

But what is so beautiful about the dead, she is mainly to join in the fun.

There was a young man who lived alone and died in his home.

The cause of death is very peculiar, the blood on the body seems to have been drained, and the person presents a distorted posture, the specific posture is shown in the picture.

What's even more strange is that since there is no one to report to the official.

Xie Zhi proposed to report to the official, but the villagers still disagreed, saying that they could not report to the official, which was the punishment of the mountain god, and if the official was reported, the whole village would suffer bad luck. óΠъ.oяＧ

Xie Zhi was strange, it seemed that there was something else, so he inquired.

It turns out that this is not the first such a strange death.

There are three villages near this Changhe Mountain, with a total of nearly 500 people, and every once in a while, as long as four, five, sixty or seven, or as short as a year and a half, a man, some married, some unmarried, will be found dead in his home.

The corpse was put in a twisted position, and the blood on its body was almost drained.

The deceased was bleeding through several large openings in the back, or wrists and ankles, and when the deceased died, he was in a state of intoxication, so he did not struggle, scream, or feel pain, and his expression was very peaceful until he died.

What's even more terrifying is that every time a deceased appears, within ten days, another woman must be found to be sacrificed, that is, the woman and the man will be buried directly.

If a man is married, then this person is his wife.

If the man is unmarried, find an unmarried woman of school age in the village.

Xie Zhi's letter was written in great detail and was written in great detail, and the more everyone read it, the more unbelievable they became.

This kind of thing, if it is in some wild tribe, it is just a mountain village five hundred miles away from the capital, which is not close, but it is not particularly far, and it is governed by officials sent by the imperial court.

How could such a ridiculous and stupid thing happen, even a person like Xie Zhi, who is used to pretending to be a ghost, feels nonsense when he sees it.

This matter has been going on for more than 30 years, and it was not that it was not reported to the government at the beginning, but the government could not investigate the reason. From the death of the first victim, all kinds of strange things happened frequently in the village, and everyone was in danger, until someone had a dream that the sacrifices should be made in pairs, and several old and dizzy village chiefs discussed the total, and then there was a living sacrifice for women.

Strange to say, after that, all the strange things in the village disappeared. Those who are sick are all well.

The government checked several times and found no problems, and each time they checked, there were more unlucky people in the village, so over time, they were not happy to intervene in the government.

The concept of the so-called unlucky things is very broad, such as eating a stone and knocking out a tooth, falling and breaking a leg, I don't know why it is a stomachache...... It's bad to die, but it's very annoying to be annoying.

This kind of curse cannot be avoided even if you leave the village and go to the county seat to take refuge, and if you go far away from your hometown, you will also cover it halfway.

The people at the foot of Changshui Mountain said that these three villages offended the mountain god, which was the punishment of the mountain god, and the mountain god had to change two servants every once in a while, and if he obeyed, he would be fine. If you are not obedient, the mountain god will make you unable to survive or die.

He wasn't much interested in the dead, but he couldn't watch an innocent girl buried alive.

But he is a master in six doors, and he has no power or power anywhere, even if he goes to the local government, the government may not take care of it.

So after thinking about it, I simply wrote back to the capital, isn't the six doors dedicated to dealing with this kind of strange thing?

At the end of Xie Zhi's letter, he wrote: "Master has already had news of a liar, and we can't stay here for long. The girl will be sacrificed alive after the first seven days of the dead, and you still have time to set off, so take care of you, my lord. ”

Xie Zhi also left a small servant in the township, explaining that he lived in a certain house and waited to pick up Xia Yue, which was sure that Xia Yue would definitely run this trip.

So what can Xia Yue say, thank Master Xie for the job he found me?

Xia Yue shook the letter paper and drawings in his hand.

"I don't think Master Xie is a person who can joke around, there will be no problem with this matter, we still have to go."

If there is a problem, unless Xie Zhi wanders the world and never returns to Beijing, otherwise, there will always be a chance to kill him.

Everyone looked at it and felt that it was, the dead didn't care first, it would definitely not work to sacrifice innocent women alive, and this thing was not once or twice, if it was not found out, no one knew how many people would be killed later.

At that moment, Xia Yue arranged it, and then set off.

Without further ado, the woman who was sacrificed alive could only wait until the night of the seventh day of her soul.

From Xie Zhi sending a message to them over, it has been five or six days, and if something goes wrong, it is a living human life.
