As the discovered floor tiles were lifted, a corner of the space hidden underneath was revealed.

After the decaying aura dissipated, everyone looked inside from this corner and saw a large number of corpses.

Demon corpse!

With just one glance, Shen calmly made up his mind.

With such a large number of demon corpses, if there is a method of refining flesh puppets, this will become the second flesh puppet.

Thinking of the flesh-and-blood puppet outside Fan City, as well as its tenacious life and powerful destructive power, Shen Congrong felt a little afraid.

"Keep digging, open this piece for me!" calmed down, Shen calmly commanded the officials to continue digging.

After another hour, the entire backyard was completely lifted, revealing the demon corpses buried underneath.

According to rough estimates, at least nearly a thousand demon corpses are piled up here.

Near the original cellar, where Han Qu tied the little fox, there was a fresh demon corpse, a yellow-skinned fox, the entire chest to the abdomen was completely torn apart, and there was a scar on the neck.

Pointing at the yellow-skinned fox, Shen said calmly: "That one, it is the little demon who came to the town guard mansion yesterday to investigate the situation, and the death is the same as the one in prison, it seems that the murderer has been hiding here." ”

Zhu Xinwen looked at these demon corpses, and the shocked expression was written on her face, she knew all these dead monsters.

Seeing Zhu Xinwen's expression, Shen calmly asked, "Why does Xinwen have such an expression, do you know these demon corpses?"

"No, no, no. Zhu Xinwen first reflexively denied, but after seeing Shen Congrong's suspicious eyes, he said: "Yes, I do know these demon corpses, the owners of these demon corpses are not very high, they are all under Liu Hu's subordinates, I have seen them on Kuyuan Mountain." ”

Seeing that Zhu Xinwen admitted that he knew, Shen calmly said with satisfaction: "Let's talk about it in detail." ”

Zhu Xinwen recalled: "It was more than a month ago, when Liu Hu had just arrived in Mulian Town. ”

More than a month ago, Zhu Xinwen followed Liu Hu to Kuyuan Mountain and launched a plan to create half-demon plundering luck in Mulian Town.

At that time, there were only two of them, and there was no helper under them. Liu Hu grabbed the spirits on Kuyuan Mountain that had not been transformed, fed them elixirs and demon blood, and made some of them quickly transform and become the first helpers.

But these quick-formed spirits are not used to being people, and they are easy to expose their feet, so Liu Hu caught a group of spirits that had already been transformed for his own use, and these people were Dong Qin's batch.

With the initial team, Liu Hu pretended to be a businessman, opened Hu Yiyuan and Qingyangju in the town, and started his own actions.

It was at this time that the quick-growing spirits were brought to the town by Liu Hu and handed over to Dong Qin for cultivation.

Among them, those who learned fast stayed in Hu Yiyuan, and those who learned slowly were sent back to Kuyuan Mountain to continue their studies and prepare for future expansion.

Zhu Xinwen often went to the mountains on Liu Hu's orders to teach these spirits how to behave, so almost all the spirits on the mountain knew her, and she naturally knew these spirits.

These demon corpses below were all spirits on the mountain at that time, and they would occasionally be ordered by Liu Hu to do something that did not have to show their heads.

"It stands to reason that after Liu Hu's death, without guidance, they will either do things in their respective positions, or stay on Kuyuan Mountain, but now they are all dead here, which is quite strange. Zhu Xinwen finished talking about the owners of these demon corpses, and then said his analysis and judgment.

Although Zhu Xinwen did not show any signs of lying when he said these words, Shen Congrong still did not fully believe it, you must know that there are at least nearly a thousand demon corpses underneath, which are completely made of pills and demon blood, the cost is too great, the burden is too heavy, Shen Congrong does not think that Liu Hu will do this.

However, Shen Congrong only wrote down these stubs first, and did not question them, but asked another question mentioned by Zhu Xinwen: "You said that these spirits were all staying on Kuyuan Mountain before their deaths, how many spirits are there on Kuyuan Mountain?"

Zhu Xinwen thought about it and replied: "There are probably nearly 10,000 of them." ”

"Nearly 10,000 spirits?" Shen Congrong felt a little incredible, such a huge number of spirits gathered on Kuyuan Mountain, it was impossible for there to be no demonic energy leaking. You must know that when solving the demon chaos in Mulian Town, it was because he didn't see the demonic energy on Kuyuan Mountain that he didn't go to Kuyuan Mountain to see it, but Zhu Xinwen actually told himself that there were nearly 10,000 spirits on Kuyuan Mountain, which was too unbelievable.

Zhu Xinwen nodded and said: "It is true that there are nearly 10,000 spirits, but most of them can't transform into shapes, they are just rough cultivation, but they have also opened their spiritual wisdom, and they can do many other things with their small bodies that have not yet been transformed." ”

Hearing Zhu Xinwen say this, Shen Congrong also understood, although these spirits who practiced roughly, although they had opened their spiritual intelligence, they could not transform into shapes, nor could they speak human words, and their real bodies were like ordinary animals.

These spirits can be sold as pets to some people, on the one hand, they can directly learn how to be a person, on the other hand, they can also collect some information they want or do some things they want to do, which is very convenient.

Squatting down and taking a closer look at the appearance of these demon corpses, Shen Congrong found that their blood was gone, and without exception, all of them were killed by people with torture instruments, and they all suffered great pain before they died. The body of the little fox, among these dead spirits, is very complete.

"It seems that someone has tortured them, and their blood is gone. If it's for what they know, then it's just torture, why take their blood?" Shen Congrong frowned and thought.

Zhu Xinwen already had a guess in his heart, but he said: "If you torture, it's because they know something they don't know, as for the blood, it should be used to refine demon blood." ”

Regarding Zhu Xinwen's speculation, Shen Congrong felt that it was a little unreasonable, but there was really nothing to refute this speculation.

Feng Muge said: "Could it be that Liu Hu used this method of torture and torture to create resentment, the flesh and blood puppet outside Fan Cheng was built with demon corpses, and there was resentment on it." ”

Shen said calmly: "Although there is this possibility, if it is Liu Hu, there will be no corpse of that fox, you know, Liu Hu has died in Fancheng." ”

There were too many doubts, and Shen Congrong fell into a desperate situation for a while, and he couldn't find a breakthrough point.

Shen Congrong and Zhu Xinwen talked for so long, but the officials on the side were so smoked by the smell of these demon corpses that they couldn't stand it.

Jin Yu covered his mouth and nose and came to Shen Congrong's side and asked, "Sir, do you want the officials to go out first, this smell is really ......?"

Shen Congrong was woken up by Jin Yu from his thoughts, stood up and said: "I still have some doubts here that need to be observed, but since there are demon corpses under Hu Yiyuan, it is very likely that there are demon corpses in Qingyangju that have not been found, you take the officials to Qingyangju to dig it up, no matter whether there are demon corpses or not, at least after digging, it will also make the people forget the adverse effects of the demon chaos." ”

Jin Yuru was pardoned and said: "Yes, I will be ordered by my humble position." ”

After speaking, Jin Yu beckoned the group of officials to leave.

Walking around the edge of the pit, and taking a closer look at these demon corpses, Shen Congrong found a few problems, and said to Feng Muge: "These spirits have only died in the last half a month, not killed by Liu Hu, they were indeed tortured to death, and their blood must have been taken away for some kind of scheme." ”

"Could it be that Zhu Xinwen did it?" Feng Muge glanced at Zhu Xinwen, who was squatting on the edge of the pit and looking at the demon corpse, and replied.

Shen said calmly: "It may not have been her, but she must have known who did it." Just now she said that these spirits are all from Kuyuan Mountain, and I think the person who killed the spirits must have wanted to get some secrets about Liu Hu from them, and as for what they are, they have to go to Kuyuan Mountain to find out. ”

Feng Muge asked, "Then the demon corpses here?"

Shen calmly replied: "The demon corpses here are no longer of any value, just burn them, after seeing Qingyang Residence and confirming that it is okay, we will go to Kuyuan Mountain immediately, otherwise I am afraid that the spirits on Kuyuan Mountain will be killed." ”

Waking Zhu Xinwen up from his thoughts, Shen said calmly: "The situation of these demon corpses is basically clear, and there is no need to keep them, but I am afraid that there will be a wind and fire when they are burned, you watch here, and when all the demon corpses are burned, go to Qingyang Residence to find me." ”

Zhu Xinwen arched his hand and said, "Sir, don't worry." ”

Nodding, Shen Congrong waved his hand, and a fire suddenly ignited on the pile of demon corpses.

"I'll leave it to you. After saying a word to Zhu Xinwen, Shen Congrong and the others went in the direction of Qingyangju.

Going to the top of Qingyang Residence, Han Qu finally asked his doubts and said: "That fox demon was in the cellar where I was, but his body appeared in another room under the cellar, there is only a soil layer in the middle of these two rooms, and there is no staircase secret door, how did the perpetrator bring his body to the same position below, without leaving a trace? And that Zhu Xinwen, I see that she obviously already knows who committed the crime, but she doesn't say it, what is the connection between her and the real murderer, isn't Mr. curious at all?"

Shen said calmly: "It's not that I'm not curious, but there is no evidence at the moment, just based on her one look and one expression, I will determine it, and ask her, not to mention whether she really knows, if she bites to death, what can we do?" There are obviously other people hidden behind these things, and the only direction we can find the person hiding behind us now is the spirit on Kuyuan Mountain, no matter how much we do to a Zhu Xinwen, it is useless, unless there is evidence that can make her speak." ”

Han Qu sighed and said no more.

Because there is nothing wrong with what Shen Congrong said, without evidence, questioning the people under her can easily hurt her feelings and create unnecessary estrangement.
