Chapter 37 (Part II)

It was the head of an old man, about fifty years old, with slightly sunken eyes and a face carved with the marks of time.

Bai Fan instantly understood why Dao Tong showed such a frightened expression when he held the box, it turned out that it was because the box contained a human head.

"Lord, this is ......"

Xie Dingtian sighed slightly and said, "You have all seen it too...... It is precisely because of this thing that I can conclude that all of you will definitely come to this meditation in the near future. ”

"I see......" everyone nodded.

"But where did you get this head?" Wu Dongtian asked the most crucial question. Everyone nodded in agreement.

Xie Dingtian said: "This matter is also a little strange, although my Wulongguan is not completely indisputable, but it is almost never involved in martial arts, it stands to reason that it should not provoke friends in the rivers and lakes, but when I woke up in the afternoon today, the little Taoist children in the temple found this wooden box at the door." ”

"You said the box was found at the door?"

Huo Yuanji's eyes flashed slightly.

"Yes. However, this wooden box was brought by Yi Nian, and you can ask him for the specific situation. Xie Dingtian pointed to the little Taoist boy beside him.

Everyone's eyes suddenly followed his direction to Xiao Daotong.

Xiao Daotong saw that everyone's eyes were looking at his side for a moment, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart.

Seeing this, Huo Yuan smiled slightly, showed a kind smile, and said, "Little Master, can you tell us the details of the situation at that time?"

Xiao Daotong nodded timidly, his little face turned red from being too nervous, and he saw him look at Bai Fan and nodded slightly.

"At that time, the Lord was still taking a nap, and I couldn't sleep, so I went to do my homework first, but when I got to the yard and was about to sweep the floor, I suddenly heard a slight noise outside the door......"

Xiao Daotong's voice was slightly quiet.

"When I heard the sound, I thought something was strange, so I opened the door and looked, but I didn't find anyone, and there was only the box on the ground......"

"I thought there was something strange about this box, and then I opened it and looked at it, who knows just opened the box......"

Xiao Daotong's face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes were full of horror.

“...... I saw a human head inside!"

I was frightened and hurriedly took the wooden box to the Lord. ”

Hearing this, everyone in the Nine Dragons Mansion secretly glanced at each other.

Then, Huo Yuanji looked at Xiao Daotong again.

"And after that?"

"After that......" Xiao Daotong hesitated for a moment and looked at the viewer beside him.

Xie Dingtian smiled and said, "I'll tell you what happened after that...... Yi Nian found me with a wooden box, and after I saw the heads in the wooden box, I immediately remembered the headless case that had recently caused a stir in the capital, and I was going to send someone to your mansion, but after I personally divined a hexagram, I calculated that you would come to visit today, so I asked Yi Nian to wait at the door......"

"You all know what happened after that......" Xie Dingtian smiled and looked at Bai Fan and the people behind him.

Huo Yuanji nodded slightly, and then looked at the box in his hand, the human head was lying quietly in the box, glowing with faint golden particles under the dimming twilight outside the house.

He frowned slightly.

Judging from the appearance and age of this human head, it is very consistent with the two headless corpses found by the river today.

But could the murderer have placed his head at the door of the Five Dragons Temple?

Not to mention the background of Wulongguan in the martial arts, that is, just because it has no connection with this case at all, it should be impossible for the murderer to implicate it.

Not to mention, they were also sent a blood letter.

Since all this could not have been done by the murderer Yue Lingxiao, who could it be?

Heaven-shattering Sect?

If that's them, then why would they do it?

"In order to force Yue Lingxiao out?"

Huo Yuanji muttered to himself.

"However, how can they force Yue Lingxiao out like this, if he hides because of this, won't it be worth the loss?"

"Or ...... Far from that, their purpose?"

His gaze deepened, and a deep groan filled his eyes.

After a few moments, it was back to normal.

Then, he looked at the other people around him quietly, and after everyone exchanged glances with each other, Huo Yuanji spoke again: "Lord, we all understand the general situation of the matter...... We will take this item back first, and if there is any latest news, we will definitely inform the viewer. ”

Xie Dingtian nodded slightly, and said, "That's very good, a thought, help me send you to all the adults." ”

Xiao Daotong nodded slightly, but he heard Huo Yuanji wave his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "No need, I'll leave now, please." ”

After that, he directly led everyone out of the main hall of the Five Dragons Temple.

After walking out of the Five Dragons Temple, everyone went straight to the direction of Jiulong Mansion.

......

......

At the same time, inside the Kowloon Mansion.

Xue Tianhan and Ling Miaoyin walked in with a white baggage.

As soon as they walked into the main hall, they saw Chen Yutian and Xuan Xi sitting in the main hall, looking at them lightly.

"Are you back?" Chen Yutian glanced at Xue Tianhan lightly and smiled.

Xue Tianhan also smiled, looked around, and then said, "It seems that you pounced on the air and found nothing." ”

Chen Yutian also nodded and said with a smile: "Yes...... I didn't expect my luck to be so bad that I would be out of the air...... I'll have to wait here for you to come back. ”

As he spoke, his gaze fell on the white baggage.

"Looks like you've got something. ”

"yes...... But for me, I would rather not have such a gain. Xue Tianhan said lightly, and then took over the burden from Ling Miaoyin's hand.

Seeing such an action, Chen Yutian suddenly had a guess in his heart.

"To be able to make you like this, it seems that this harvest is indeed not small. ”

Xue Tianhan didn't pay attention to him, but unbuttoned the burden and completely opened the outer baggage. And the moment the baggage was opened, the contents suddenly showed their true colors.

Chen Yutian and Xuan Xi's eyes flashed suddenly in an instant!

As their bodies trembled slightly, the pupils of the two of them also contracted involuntarily!

"Sure enough, it's a good harvest!"

Chen Yutian looked at the man's head and sighed slightly.

Xuan Xi frowned slightly, but he didn't expect that the "things I want to find" written in the blood book referred to the heads of those who had been taken away.

This is indeed what they are looking for!

But how did the messenger know where the murderer had hidden his head?

Or is it that these heads are his own hidden?

But if so, why did he return the heads of the dead that he had so painstakingly taken from the dead, and what was his purpose?

Xuan Xi's eyes narrowed slightly.

As she spends more and more time with Chenyu, she has made a lot of progress in thinking about problems now.

But even so, she still can't figure out the current problem.

Xue Tianhan looked at the man's head and frowned slightly, Chen Yutian knew that his innate cleanliness habit had been committed again, and he was not reluctant, and said to him: "Brother Xue, if you really can't stand it, go to the side hall outside to rest first." ”

"It's fine. Xue Tianhan nodded.

He just couldn't take it anymore.

Although the head was carried by a woman like Ling Miaoyin all the way, even so, he still felt uncomfortable for a while, as long as he saw the white package, he couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body when he thought of a disgusting human head full of blood inside.

It's unbearable!

After Xue Tianhan left, Chen Yutian asked Ling Miaoyin to tell in detail the whole process of discovering this human head, and when he heard that this human head was placed on a clean wooden plate at that time, his eyes suddenly flickered!

"You said the head was placed on a clean wooden plate?"

Ling Miaoyin smiled slightly. Nodding. "Yes. ”

"Is this strange?" Chen Yutian frowned slightly.

On the side, Xuan Xi also frowned.

It is indeed a little strange, how many years has there been no people in the ruined temple, it should have been full of dust. And according to Ling Miaoyin's statement, the ruined temple was indeed full of dust, and Xue Tianhan even almost turned around and left because of this.

But the wooden plate used to hold the human head was clean!

This is too counterintuitive.

There is only one explanation...... That is, the wooden plate and the human head, which were not originally placed in the ruined temple, but were recently placed there. Xuan Xi said.

Chen Yutian nodded slightly.

"Yes, this is indeed the most reasonable explanation, but there is another question, that is, who put those things there? Could it be Yue Lingxiao?"

"This ......" Xuan Xi suddenly froze, "I really don't know how to answer this, according to common sense, this is naturally unlikely, but Yue Lingxiao has made similar moves before, so it's hard for me to be sure if he did it." ”

Chen Yutian smiled slightly, "Yes, I think so too." It seems that our immediate task is to find out who is responsible for these heads and the blood letter. ”

"These?" Xuan Xi was slightly stunned!

"yes...... Don't forget that there are two addresses written in the blood book, I think another place, Wulongguan, should also have a head waiting for us!"

Chen Yutian's voice fell, and he heard Huo Yuanji's laughter outside.

"Brother Chen is really like a god!"

As the words fell, Huo Yuanji, Bai Fan, Wu Dongtian, Lin Dao, Tang Fengling, Tianying, and Lin Feifei walked in together, Huo Yuanji was holding a square wooden box in his hand, and when he saw this wooden box, the eyes of several people in the room suddenly converged on it.

Seeing this scene, Huo Yuanji laughed even harder.

Then he saw the human head on the table on top of the white cloth.

"Looks like we're getting a lot of ......"

As he spoke, he took out the human head in the box, and when he saw this thing, even though he had prepared in his heart, Chen Yutian, Xuan Xi, and Ling Miaoyin couldn't help but shrink their pupils slightly!

Then Chen Yutian looked back at the human head brought back by Ling Miaoyin, he hadn't noticed it yet, and when he saw the human head brought back by Huo Yuanji at this moment, he realized that the face of this human head didn't seem to be young, about fifty or sixty.

This age is about the same as the age of the two headless corpses speculated by Gongsun this morning.

Could it be that this is the human head of those two corpses?

Chen Yutian frowned slightly.

"If you count these two, we're only one short of one. He said suddenly.

Hearing this, Huo Yuanji nodded, "Yes...... We're just the last one, and I wonder when he'll be able to appear in front of us?"

Listening to such a strange conversation between the two, Ling Miaoyin and Xuan Xi couldn't help but have some doubts.

"What are you talking about? What's missing?"

Chen Yutian smiled slightly, "Of course it's a human head...... Think about it, how many people died in this case, how many headless bodies did we find, how many heads did we find?"

Hearing Chen Yutian's series of questions, the second daughter immediately calculated in her heart, and then her expression suddenly changed!

"So, the last one who is bad is ......"

"Yes, it is the head of Wu Chengtian, and the head of the first victim of this case!" Gongsun suddenly walked in and looked at the two heads on the table.

"That's what you've learned from this trip. He asked.

The crowd nodded.

Gongsun smiled, "It seems that this case is getting more and more interesting...... These two should be the two corpses in the morning, but it's not clear which one they belong to. ”

Chen Yutian nodded slightly.

"We also thought about it...... But what we are even more puzzled about now is who sent the blood book and these two heads, could it be Yue Lingxiao, the murderer, or someone else?"

Hearing this, Gongsun frowned slightly.

"It's important, but I'm not going to get any information from these two heads. ”

"We know about it. Chen Yutian nodded again, and was about to speak to continue, when his expression suddenly changed!

The other people in the hall were also agreeing to the time, and their faces changed drastically!

"You feel it too?"

The crowd nodded.

Chen Yutian's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he stepped out and came directly to the door of the Nine Dragons Mansion, and said in a low voice: "Since Your Excellency is here, why don't you come in and sit down?"

"Hehe......"

The moment Chen Yutian's voice landed, a laugh suddenly sounded.

"Lord Chen's invitation, I can't stand it, I came here this time, just to give you a gift, and please take it!"

As soon as the words fell, a rapid sound of breaking wind suddenly hit, causing Chen Yutian's face to change slightly, and then a right hand was infused with internal force and suddenly leaned forward.

And at the moment when his right hand popped out, an object with the momentum of thunder directly crashed into his hand.

"The thing has been delivered, and I am saying goodbye!"

The voice sounded again, and then drifted farther and farther, Chen Yutian glanced at Tang Fengling behind him.

The latter nodded and disappeared in place.

Looking in the direction where the voice had gone, Chen Yutian looked at his hand.

And at the moment when he saw the thing in his hand, a monstrous wave suddenly set off in his heart!

And the moment his mind was engulfed by this huge wave, his hands trembled even more, and he almost fell out of his hand!

"This ...... How...... Will it be...... This ......"

He looked at the object in his hand and was speechless for a long time!

An unexpected look of shock filled his eyes!

I saw that the thing in his hand was also a human head!

And the face of this human head is impressive...... The real culprit of the whole case!

The face of this human head is exactly the same as the face of Yue Lingxiao painted on the wanted notice!

It is certain that this should be Yue Lingxiao's head!

But, why is his head here?

At this moment, Chen Yutian's heart was full of mysteries.
