Ru Xiaonan carefully examined the wounds of the deceased. шщш.(vii) (ix) x.S.сом The update is so fast.

"Qing Moyan, they were all killed by resentful spirits. ”

Qingmo's eyes shone slightly.

Several officials of the Shuntian Mansion standing at the entrance of the 'gate' showed disdain on their faces.

Spirits? they've never heard of it.

Ru Xiaonan pointed to the deceased's 'chest' and asked Qing Moyan, "Can you see this trace of black gas?"

Qing Moyan looked in the direction of her finger and shook her head lightly for a while.

Even if this girl learns things slowly, her talent is far higher than his.

There are some things that cannot be made up for the day after tomorrow.

Qing Moyan knew one thing very well, but he refused to let her be proud of it.

With what he knew about her, she would surely her tail after pride.

"If these people were all killed by resentful spirits, why didn't we find anything unusual in the Prince's Mansion?" asked Qing Moyan.

Ru Xiaonan frowned and said, "There are many kinds of resentful spirits, generally low-level resentful spirits are not harmful, and they can't hurt people, but the longer they exist, the more they gather in one place, the heavier the resentment generated, then they will no longer be satisfied with the ethereal existence, they will devour people's 'flesh' blood, and thus become more powerful." ”

"What do you mean......"

"We didn't notice anything abnormal in the Prince's Mansion, there are only two possibilities, one is that the resentful spirits are too weak, and the sunlight during the day is too strong to suppress their existence, and the other is that the resentful spirits are too strong, strong enough that it can hide itself. ”

Qingmo Yan pursed her lips.

With so many human lives, it is impossible for a weak resentful spirit.

"That is, it is strong enough to hide itself. Qingmo Yan groaned for a moment, "Is there a way to 'force' it out?"

"Just wait for it to strike again......"

Before Ru Xiaonan's words fell, an official from Shuntian Mansion hurriedly ran outside the 'door'.

"Your Excellency...... Prince's Mansion ...... Another murder!"

Qing Moyan quickly pulled Ru Xiaonan up, "Go to the Prince's Mansion!"

Shuntian Mansion Yin couldn't, so he had to follow Qing Moyan back to the Prince's Mansion.

When everyone arrived at the prince's mansion, it was nearly dusk.

After Qing Moyan entered the 'door', she did not rush to see the deceased, but asked people to fetch water and clean her hands with Ru Xiaonan.

Shuntianfu Yin was in a hurry, but Qing Moyan was slow and unhurried.

"Isn't Shaoqing in a hurry?" said Shuntianfu Yin quietly.

Qing Moyan took a handkerchief and wiped her hands, then pulled Ru Xiaonan's hand over and helped her dry her little hands.

"The man is already dead, what is the hurry. ”

"But ......" Shuntian Mansion Yin couldn't help choking, it was you who was obviously in a hurry just now, why aren't you in a hurry now?

Qing Moyan helped Ru Xiaonan wipe her little hands and lose her handkerchief.

"Where is the crown princess now?"

"Resting. ”

"Can you see each other?"

The maid looked embarrassed.

"Please go to Tongyu, I want to see the crown princess. Qing Moyan emphasized.

The maid couldn't, so she had to retreat.

Qing Mo Yan and Shun Tian Fu Yin came to the place where the deceased was found.

Ru Xiaonan noticed that this was very close to the hanging 'flower' and 'door', and then went inside the inner house.

The dead man was a little maid, in her teens, with a withered body and wrinkled skin like old bark.

"It's like being sucked dry of flesh and blood. "Excuse me.

"Where's the injury?" asked Qing Moyan.

"'Chest' mouth. ”

They lifted the clothes of the deceased.

Ru Xiaonan leaned over and took a look.

A faint black aura floated in between.

Ru Xiaonan stretched out her hand, and the black gas avoided her fingers as if she had encountered something terrible.

"What did you find?"

"There is no soul. ”

"Soul?" Qing Moyan looked at her in surprise.

Ru Xiaonan said seriously, "The deceased want to go to the 'underworld', because the body has died, so only the soul is left, but the souls of these dead are all gone, which is why they did not turn into resentful spirits after death, and exude dead energy." ”

"Where have their souls gone?"

"If my guess is correct...... It must have been eaten. Ru Xiaonan sighed.

After the soul is eaten, these people cannot die, which can be said to be a very cruel way to kill.

At this time, Shuncheon Mansion Yin had already interrogated the maid who found the deceased.

"They said that the deceased was a servant of the outer court, and the crown princess suddenly wanted to read, so she asked the maid to go to the study to get the book, and was killed on the way back. ”

Qing Moyan just nodded lightly after hearing this.

At this time, a maid came over and said, "The princess is bathing, I'm afraid I won't be able to see guests." ”

Qing Moyan narrowed his eyes.

Even Shuntianfu Yin could hear this off-string sound.

The crown princess didn't want to see anyone.

At first, it was said that he was unwell, then he called it a nap, and now he said that he was bathing.

"Since the crown princess is bathing, can we go into the house and take a look?" Qing Moyan still didn't plan to give up.

The maid finally couldn't hold back anymore, Shaoqing's request was simply too much.

"Lord Shaoqing, our master is the crown princess, how can you enter her bedroom!"

Qingmo's face was expressionless, "Since the official can't enter, the official's wife can always enter, right?"

The maid was stunned.

Ru Xiaonan's identity is the lord of Mingyue, even if she enters the princess's bedroom, it is not rude.

Qingmo's face was flat, but his tone was 'forced' step by step, "Then I will trouble the official's wife and let her go to the princess's boudoir to have a look, so as not to have anything wrong." ”

It's all said about this, and if you refuse, it will seem that the crown princess is too harsh, and people are ordered by the emperor to investigate the case, and they always push back and go, and they always can't say it.

"That'...... Please ask the county lord to wait for a while, and the slave maid will go to ask the princess first. ”

The maids left.

Qing Moyan quickly whispered to Ru Xiaonan: "If you are afraid, you can summon the stupid dog." ”

Ru Xiaonan thought about it and felt that it was impossible for these maids to let her take the dog into the princess's bedroom, so she shook her head.

The maid quickly asked the princess to come back and took Ru Xiaonan to the bedroom in the courtyard.

Qing Moyan and Shuntian Mansion Yin and the others couldn't get close, and only Ru Xiaonan followed the maid into the 'door' alone.

The furnishings in the house are gorgeous, and there are valuable objects everywhere, Ru Xiaonan doesn't know the goods, but she knows that these things are worth a lot of money.

The maid stood respectfully by the 'door', and Ru Xiaonan turned the screen alone and entered the inner room.

The smell of incense filled the room, which disgusted her.

She covered her mouth and nose with her sleeve.

There is still no sign of death or resentment.

However, the air is not pure, and there is a strange atmosphere that cannot be explained.

It was as if some mist had spread, whitewashed the peace, blocking something hidden in the depths of the mist.

Ru Xiaonan suddenly felt a 'shot' from behind.

A chill like a freeze instantly invaded her heart.

She jerked her head away.

Behind her was a 'bed', neatly packed, and the bedding was not 'messy' at all.

There were no outsiders in the house, and it was unlikely that anyone would be watching her.

But she trusted her own judgment, and that feeling ...... It's like being spied on, which makes people feel extremely uncomfortable.

She approached the 'bed' couch and suddenly found a doll next to the pillow, only the size of a palm.

The face carved by the white 'jade' looks quite similar to that of the prince Kong Lin Jingyi.

It sat there quietly, facing Ru Xiaonan, staring at her, its eyes were empty like a bottomless abyss......
