The four of them sat together for a moment, then came to the bedside to examine the man's body in detail.

Mo Erha looked at the black face of the male corpse, and guessed: "Brother Mao, it can't be that you pressed on him last night and suffocated people to death, right?"

Mao Hu patted his head and was not sure: "That 'Four Two Tours' is really not bragging, the three altars really broke Grandpa Mao's pieces, and it was since leaving the Drunken Weng Pavilion last night...... I don't remember anything......"

Tuchen also tried hard to recall the scene of last night, and found that he had been lying on the ground motionless since he first found the man on the street, and then he was carried back to the inn by Mao Hu, and his face was actually blue and black at that time, but because the night was too dark, it did not attract the attention of others. In this way, the man should have been killed before he met them.

"It's a demon. Zi Ning's voice sounded from behind, she just glanced at the male corpse lightly, and then walked back to the wooden table and sat down again: "His face is dark, his eyes are red and swollen, and there are obvious purple-red spots on his chest and forehead, which shows that the soul was forcibly withdrawn from his body by others before he died." And the only ones who are interested in the three souls and seven spirits of the human body are the demons!"

After such a few reminders, Mao Hu also paused, picked up the wrist of the male corpse and touched it, and stared at the round eyes: "I was really drained of my soul alive! It seems that there are monsters in this Yang City coming out to make trouble!" After speaking, he suddenly turned his head to look at Zi Ning, his eyes sharp: "Even Tu Chen and Mo Erha, who are disciples of Linggu, didn't see the clues, and Miss Zi Ning actually saw through it at a glance! Who are you!?"

Zi Ning was very indifferent, looked out the window and moved her lips: "It doesn't matter who I am, you better hurry up and think about what to do with the dead body on the bed!"

Mo Erha nodded again and again when he heard this: "Miss Zining is right, now that this male corpse has appeared in our room, if the government knows, we will become murderers!"

Staring at Zi Ning for another moment, Mao Hu shook his thick beard: "Exorcism is our business, but dealing with the dead is the government's business." Let's send the corpse directly to the official mansion, all as a report, first determine the identity of the deceased, and see if we can find the monster by touching the vine! Don't worry, this official and we are both old acquaintances!" After speaking, he picked up the male corpse and carried it on his shoulder, leaving the inn and going straight to the official mansion.

On the road, Tuchen was very curious: "It's only been half a year that a monster has appeared again, and Yangcheng is really so unpeaceful?"

Mao Hu sighed: "Yangcheng is the closest human capital to the Great Wilderness Forest, and if there are monsters coming out of the Great Wilderness Mountain, this place has naturally become the first stop, although the people are miserable, they are helpless. I heard that a few months ago, an official wrote to the imperial court, hoping to gather a group of exorcists to integrate into the major government offices and take charge of cases related to monsters. But he was dragged out and beheaded by the emperor for the crime of beheading the people with bewitching the people! It is really unfortunate for the world to meet such a king!"

While talking, under the guidance of passers-by, the four of them have come to the street where the Yangcheng official mansion is located, and they can see from a distance that there are two large stone lions with teeth and claws standing in the middle of the street, and two red nail wooden doors on the steps are wide open, and there is a drum on the left side of the wooden door.

As soon as they approached, there was a sudden noisy shouting in the official palace, and then an old woman in her fifties was carried out by two officers and soldiers. The woman's hair was unkempt and her face was full of sorrow, and she fell down on the steps in front of the house, crying bitterly and crying bitterly!

At the same time, a middle-aged man in official clothes also walked out, looked at the woman with a sad face, took out some silver taels from his arms and handed them over: "Aunt Wang, it's not that I'm irresponsible, many people have disappeared one after another in the past month, and the government has issued a notice prohibiting people from traveling at night." It's no wonder that your son went out drinking and disappeared by himself. You take these silver taels first, and if there is any news, I will send someone to inform you immediately. ”

The old woman did not take the silver tael, but grabbed the middle-aged man's hands tightly, got up and knelt on the ground with a thud: "My lord, my son was fine when he went out last night, and it was only one night, how could he be missing." I beg you, hurry up and find it, I beg you......"

It was a very sad scene, and although others did not know what was happening, they also felt sad for the poor old woman. The middle-aged man always had helplessness on his face, and persuaded him for a long time before stabilizing the old woman's mood and promising to go back first and wait for the news.

Wiping the tears on her face, the old woman kowtowed to the middle-aged man again, and then staggered up, turned around and walked a few steps when she saw the male corpse on Maohu's shoulder, she suddenly sped up her pace, rushed to the front and raised the face of the male corpse to look, and tears welled up again: "I...... My poor son...... What are you...... What's going on............"

The middle-aged man in official clothes was about to turn around and enter the house, but when he saw this situation, he immediately pointed at Mao Hu and shouted: "Come on, take down these murderers quickly, and immediately go to the court for interrogation!"

As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen officers and soldiers with knives instantly surrounded Maohu, and they couldn't help but say that they tied up the four people and escorted them into the mansion.

Mo Erha grinned while struggling: "Brother Mao, didn't you say that the official master here is an acquaintance with you, why did you turn your face when you first met!!......"

Soon the four of them were escorted to the lobby, Mao Hu was not nervous, but swaggered to the front with a relaxed face.

The middle-aged man sat on the high table and shouted: "Be bold and make a fool of the people, and dare not kneel when you see this official!

Seeing this, Mao Hu cleared his throat vigorously, then raised his head and smiled: "Lord Li Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come here unharmed." ”

Li Yan on the high table was also stunned when he heard this, put the bamboo skewers that had been taken out back into the bamboo tube, walked to the stage and took a closer look, and immediately laughed: "Brother Maohu! Oh, this is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't recognize the family." Li is ashamed, ashamed...... Come on, hurry up and loosen your ties!"

Sitting in the back hall, Li Yan still felt a little guilty, picked up the teacup and raised it to his chest: "There have been a lot of affairs recently, disturbing my mind, and I ask Brother Mao Hu and a few friends not to take today's matter to heart." ”

"Master Li is right, you don't know what kind of character I have. Saying that, Mao Hu also picked up the tea and drank it all: "But then again, has Yangcheng not been peaceful recently, this person was found on the street in the middle of the night last night, and the cause of death is quite suspicious." ”

Li seriously sighed and put the teacup back on the table: "Brother Maohu doesn't know, in the past month, there have always been some people who have disappeared inexplicably, and they are all at night. Counting Aunt Wang's son just now, he is already thirty-two, and he can't see anyone alive or dead, and these people seem to have disappeared out of thin air! The one you brought is the first one who can see the corpse, and the others have not been heard from until now. ”

"What!?" Tuchen frowned: "More than thirty people have been missing!?

At the mention of the word 'monster', Li Yan instantly became cautious, got up and carefully closed the doors and windows, and said in a low voice: "Now the imperial court doesn't let these things be mentioned anymore, and when they reach the emperor's ears, they will lose their heads!"

Mao Hu snorted lightly: "This emperor is too pedantic, and he would rather believe that he doesn't dare to face it head-on." Master Li, let's tell you the truth, this time there are indeed monsters at work. If this monster is not removed, more and more people will go missing in Yangcheng!"

Li Yan nodded slightly: "Actually, I also have some suspicions, but there are no exorcists under my command, and I dare not publicly announce it due to the suppression of the imperial court." At this time, it coincides with the return of Brother Maohu, which is the blessing of my government and the blessing of the people of Yangcheng!"

After being praised, Mao Hu's face was already happy, and he slapped China on the chest: "This matter is on me, and it will definitely be done within three days!"

After staying for a while, the four of them got up to say goodbye, and when they left the official mansion, the old woman was still holding the man's body and crying silently, which made people feel unbearable......
