In the middle of the night, there was a bed, and on top of two chairs, there was a simple bed, and there was a corpse on the bed, and the white sheets covered the face, and there was nothing in the room except the corpse and the oil lamp.

Not far from the door, a group of people walked in, a delicate-looking girl walked in front, carrying a lantern, the fire inside was looming, it was Cui Ziyuan, followed by Zhou Feifei and a group of people, victory was afraid of the dark, refused to come over, Mai Weizi couldn't help much, so she stayed in the inn to accompany Ping An and Wangcai. Song Ci, who was dressed in white, also walked in the front, and the last one was Yue Chang and the monk Kongjie.

Everyone got to know each other as they walked.

Kongjie said: "The Sprinkle family was originally a monk of Feilong Temple, and the master asked me to go down the mountain to practice, and I heard that the Meicheng teahouse was very interesting, so I went in to take a look, but I didn't expect that as soon as I came, something like this happened." ”

"In Xia Song Ci, my father is the prison magistrate here, I was present with Brother Zhou at the time of the crime, because we have doubts about this case, so we plan to work together to solve the case, the front is the morgue, the situation is urgent, we need to find out the cause of death as soon as possible. Because my father has not had a death case for a long time since he took office, so the morgue has not been used for a long time, and it is not too gloomy, but there is a lot less anger, if you are afraid, it is still too late to go back. Song Ci also said.

"In the middle of summer, this is a place to stop the dead, why don't you go back first. Zhou Feifei said.

"What's wrong with the dead? What is there to be afraid of?"

The house is not far away, I saw a lonely room appear in front of everyone, there is no plaque on the door of the house, the outside looks very old, dusty everywhere, the corners are full of cobwebs, everyone arrived at the door, Cui Ziyuan, who was carrying a lantern in the front, raised his hand, intending to push the door open.

I only heard a creaking, the door was opened, everyone entered, and the dim oil lamp was lit in the house, "I listen to Brother Wu's words, people who died tragically, need to light an oil lamp above their heads at night." Song Ci walked and introduced the situation to everyone.

Wu Qizheng nodded, and Song Ci lit a few more candles in the house to illuminate the room even brighter.

Song Ci continued: "The deceased's name is Luo Ning, less than thirty years old, he steals all the year round, gambles, owes countless debts, and has been arrested. There must be a mystery about the cause of his death. ”

"Have you done an autopsy?" asked Yue Chang.

"After examination, the deceased had several bruises on his back and lower back, but they were only skin injuries and could not cause death. Song Ci said.

"However, if you can't find the real cause of death, then you can only conclude that it was the empty ring that killed someone by mistake!" Cui Ziyuan said.

On the other hand, the empty ring is still clasped together, reciting the mantra of death.

The crowd sighed.

Although there are many more living people in the house, it is still difficult to offset the desertion in the house, and I don't know which window is leaking, everyone only feels that there is a wind blowing, and the wind at night is still a little cold.

Even Wu Qizheng couldn't help but shudder.

Mao Mao seemed to think of something, and said in secret: "It's not a way to go on like this, Wu Qizheng, you let the spirit know it and see if there is any secret disease or something on this person's body, I believe this is not a difficult thing for you as a Daoist in the Yuan Infant Realm." Zhou Feifei, you also release your spiritual consciousness to see if there are any scars on that person's body that are easy to ignore. ”

In any case, the naked eye observation of mortal beings is still not comparable to the spiritual sense of cultivators, and if you want to know what is going on, you still have to use supernatural things like spiritual sense.

The two of them immediately closed their eyes and began to sense.

It didn't take long for Wu Qizheng to open his eyes, "I don't feel anything abnormal, that person's meridians and veins are strong, and there are no lesions in all parts of his body, so he should have been beaten." ”

"Brother Qizheng, I heard before that you opened a medical hall, do you know that there are any death holes on people's bodies that can kill at the touch of a button?" Seeing that they began to probe the corpse with their spiritual sense, Yue Chang also asked.

There are too many dead holes on people's bodies, but they are generally not on the waist, and only by piercing with sharp objects such as steel nails can people die. Wu Qizheng said unhurriedly.

Sheng Xia said: "Then this person is definitely not killed by the empty ring, but there is no secret disease on his body, is it that he was scared to death by the empty ring?"

"Probably not, too much fright can damage the heart, but I just probed and his heart is not damaged. Wu Qizheng said in a secret voice.

"It may be that you were scared to death! The empty ring looks fierce and vicious, and it is reasonable to be scared to death. Cui Ziyuan suddenly realized.

Yue Chang shook his head and said with a smile, "Silly girl, they all said that he is a thief, and he is all in the business of stealing chickens and dogs, and his inner tolerance must not be worse than that, how can he be scared to death?"

"Silly...... Silly girl?" Hearing Yue Chang call her like this, Cui Ziyuan's face turned red and he stopped talking.

"Found it!" Zhou Feifei said in secret.

Song Ci, Cui Ziyuan and Kong Jie, who were present, were not cultivators, and Zhou Feifei wanted to tell everyone the cause of the thief's death very skillfully.

"Didn't the second fat man say just now? There are many dead holes in people's bodies. Zhou Feifei said as he began to get closer to the corpse, "I have heard of a secret technique that can kill people silently and invisibly!"

Zhou Feifei's voice was very flat, and after speaking, he had already arrived at the man's bedside, and then reached out and lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, revealing the man's head.

Everyone only felt that another cool breeze was coming, which made people feel a chill down their spines.

Because he just died during the day, the corpse has not yet begun to decompose, just a slight and unpleasant smell, Midsummer is just a girl after all, some can't stand it, I want to turn my head and not look at it, but I am still very curious in my heart, I think about it, and I still want to see what is going on.

I don't know why, although Cui Ziyuan is a little girl, she is also very bold, not only is she not afraid of the dark, but she is also very curious about this corpse at this time, and she is not afraid of the smell, her eyes are wide at this time, and she is looking at it with interest.

Zhou Feifei continued: "That kind of secret technique is extremely mysterious, and it is not something that ordinary people can do. The second fat man should understand that people's death points are divided into four types: soft and numb, dizzy, light and heavy, and each has nine acupoints. Together, there are 36 fatal acupoints, and among these 36 acupoints, there are Baihui acupoints, tail acupoints, Zhangmen acupoints, temples and dumb door acupoints, which are the dead acupoints that are injured and must die, and they are the killers of the rivers and lakes. ”

"You mean, I inadvertently hurt his death hole?"

"No! someone injured his death point, and the wound is here!" Zhou Feifei finished speaking, stretched out his hand, and pulled out a steel needle that was several inches long from the Baihui point on the top of his head!!

Zhou Feifei continued: "It's just that I'm also curious, who can do such a superb technique?"

"This ...... Actually, it's not that difficult, do you see that stain on the wall?" said the empty ring on the side, and then, he picked up the steel needle, shook his hand, and threw the steel needle into the earthen wall on the side, half of the needle sank into the earthen wall, leaving half of it outside, right in the center of the stain.
