Outside Gu Nian's room, E Luo glanced at "Ling Huayin" behind her and said, "Let her take the wind outside?" ”

Who knew that "Ling Huayin" suddenly spoke: "I will also go in with you." As if they were afraid that they would leave her behind.

Oro was taken aback, "When did you come?"

"Just now. Ling Huayin said that she entered Gu Nian's room first.

E Luo and Situ Yan glanced at each other, and saw that Situ Yan nodded, and then followed in.

The room was pitch black and there was no one on the bed. Elo pointed to the cabinet next to the bed, signaling that the secret passage was behind the cabinet. Situ Yan looked over, and sure enough, he saw that the cabinet had been removed, and next to it was a secret door that could only accommodate one person in and out. As soon as they entered the dark passage, they felt that the air was cold and damp, and after walking for a while, Ling Huayin and Situ Yan noticed a very strong demonic aura, as if they had gone deep into the cave of some monster. They hurriedly walked out of the corridor and saw that at the end of the corridor was a spacious dark room, with cages with yellow talismans on both sides, and each cage was locked up with a demon, and strangely, Gu Nian was not inside.

The unfamiliar smell awakened the demons, and they began to shake their cages, trying to escape from the cages that had locked them. Especially after seeing Eluo, they stretched out their hands from the cage one after another, as if asking Eluo for help.

Ling Huayin never expected that there would be so many demons locked up here, but Situ Yan was not so surprised, as if he had already guessed the secret here.

But they didn't know it was a pre-programmed trap.

I heard a ghostly voice suddenly sound in the dark room: "You've found this place anyway." ”

They followed the sound and looked at it, only to see that Gu Nian had been standing at the door of the dark room for some time, staring at E Luo faintly and said, "I didn't expect that your immortal family would also bring a demon demon, it seems that Xianze Palace is not all people who subdue demons and eliminate demons." ”

Elo smiled, "I'm not the same as these demons you raised. ”

Gu Nian also smiled, and sneered a little: "What's the difference, it's just that you have turned into a human form, and it's not the same as a despicable monster of cannibal dreams." ”

"What are you talking about?!" Oro was enraged by his words, who expected that Gu Nian had already prepared, and pressed the mechanism around him, and the iron fence of the dark room was closed with a bang.

"These demons haven't eaten in a long time, so let them taste it. Gu Nian said, then cast a spell to burn the talisman in the cage in the dark room, and then walked away.

Several cages were opened at once, and the Nightmare swarmed like hungry tigers.

Ling Huayin hurriedly drew her sword to greet her, only to hear the sound of the "Zheng Zheng Zheng", and Ling Huayin was suddenly surrounded by the enchantment. "What are you doing?" Ling Huayin shouted at Situ Yan.

Situ Yan said while playing the piano: "You can watch carefully, we are more than enough to deal with a few nightmare demons, and you don't need to bother." ”

Ling Huayin was secretly annoyed in her heart, and she couldn't get out, so she had to stay in the enchantment and watch them. Eluo is reluctant to fight with his peers, almost all of the whole process is on defense, and Situ Yan is in control of the overall situation, but these demons have probably been hungry for a long time, and they can't hold Situ Yan at all, and not long after Situ Yan played, they had all fallen. E Luo hurriedly worked with Situ Yan to lock them up again.

"You can let me out now, right?" Ling Hua Yin said to Situ Yan.

Situ Yan smiled and removed the enchantment, "Of course you can." Aggrieved. ”

Ling Huayin walked around the dark room, trying to find other exits, but there was no other way in the dark room except the door that had just entered, so she said to them, "How are you going to get out?"

Situ Yan sat on the ground with the piano in his arms, not only was he not in a hurry, but said very comfortably: "Don't worry, we can take a break here and chat, anyway, someone will definitely come to save us." ”

"We came in secretly, who knew we were here?" Ling Huayin looked at him puzzled.

"I deliberately left the transmission note you gave me outside, for fear that Gu Nian would do something, as long as there is a little gap, my piano sound can control the transmission note outside, but I may have to borrow your spiritual power. Situ Yan smiled.

Ling Huayin said with some surprise: "Of course you can." ”

When Situ Yan plucked the strings again, Ling Huayin injected spiritual power into his strings, but it only lasted for a while, and Ling Huayin collapsed weakly on the ground.

E Luo panicked for a while, hurriedly helped Ling Huayin up, and asked Situ Yan loudly: "Hey, what's wrong with her?"

Situ Yan slowly completed the last playing action, stood up, nodded on Ling Huayin's forehead, and said, "It's okay, this distraction is already very unstable. She just suddenly used her spiritual power, and her distraction was a little weak, and Linghua couldn't use this body for the time being. When I get out, I'll find a way to fix it for her again. ”

They stayed in the dark room for about half an hour, when the iron door suddenly opened, and Situ Yan said, "Someone is coming, let's go." After that, he picked up the sleeping "Ling Huayin" and left the dark room with Eluo.

As soon as he walked out of Gu Nian's room, he saw a group of people from Xianze Palace surrounding the courtyard, and Gu Nian was trapped by the spell, and the old couple and other people from Gu Nian could only do it in a hurry. When the two Taoist priests saw Situ Yan, they hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to express their gratitude.

"You are the Qinghui Immortal, the Sword Elder has already told us with a transmission note, and it is thanks to you that we were able to find this culprit so quickly. ”

"You don't have to thank me, if you want to thank Linghua, without her transmission note, it is estimated that I am still trapped inside, and my life was saved by Linghua. Situ Yan smiled slightly, and Yun lightly rejected their thanks.

The two Taoist priests glanced at each other, and wanted to compliment Ling Huayin again, but when they saw the person in Situ Yan's arms, they hesitated for a moment and stopped.

As soon as Situ Yan walked in front of Gu Nian, Gu Nian said disheartenedly, "How do you doubt me?"

"Gu Gongzi did things safely, and there was no doubt, but it was not the right time to blame the maid in the mansion for dying. We concluded that the maid died at the hands of the Demon Nightmare, and the black mark on her body is proof of this, and Gu Gongzi accidentally exposed the same black mark on her arm when she poured me tea, which is the reason why I suspect Gu Gongzi. ”

Gu Nian snorted coldly, "Just a black seal?"

Situ Yan shook his head, "It's not all, after all, Gu Gongzi is a patient himself." It's just that Gu Gongzi is too indifferent to the maid's death compared to others, unlike treating his personal maid, Gu Gongzi has long expected that the maid is going to die. In addition, I also found a scar on Gu Gongzi's left thumb, and it happened that I found a ring behind the door of the maid's room. Miss Oro says that the girl was defiled by the Nightmare before she died, and I wonder if the ring was taken from the Nightmare when the girl was struggling. However, I can see from the conversation with Gongzi that Gu Gongzi has a deep affection for his wife, and since this is the case, he should not do anything like that to another girl, so Gu Gongzi should have done something to the girl in a completely unconscious state when he was possessed by a demon. Of course, these are all speculations without evidence, so I asked Miss Oro to go to Childe's room at night to investigate. ”

After hearing this, Gu Nian laughed self-deprecatingly, and said with remorse: "It seems that I was careless, and I left you behind, but I actually sent myself to a dead end." ”

Situ Yan sighed and said, "Tell me, why do you want to raise those demons?"

Gu Nian saw that he had no way to escape, so he gave up struggling and recalled: "This is all a big mistake I made in a moment of confusion...... After Ying Ying's death, I kept falling into self-blame, if I hadn't drunk so much that day and went back earlier, wouldn't she have died...... After I fell seriously ill, I was in a state of confusion every day, always thinking about the scene of that day, until one day, a Taoist priest came to me and asked me if I wanted to see my wife. Of course I thought about it, I dreamed about it, but it is impossible for a person to be resurrected after death, so I took him as a joke and drove him out. However, I had a dream that night that Ying Ying was not dead and that we had children, and I almost thought it was all true. When I woke up, I realized that it was just a dream, and then I saw him again, and he told me that although he could not bring my wife back to life, he could let me and my wife meet in a dream, and asked me if I would like it. I thought that I would let myself live in a dream rather than live like this, so I accepted his terms. ”

"What kind of Taoist priest do you say?"

"Dressed like them, he looks very young, his eyes are blue, and he speaks in a weird tone. ”

Situ Yan couldn't help but glance at E Luo next to him, and saw that E Luo winked at him seductively, and his eyes were slightly blue, Situ Yan turned his head and continued to ask, "What are the conditions of the Taoist priest?"

"He asked me to raise some nightmares for him, and at first they were fine, they didn't eat much, but then gradually they began to grow like crazy, and my own dreams alone could no longer satisfy them, so I released them and let them hunt for food. I thought that the town was too crowded for the demons to starve to death, but the inhabitants began to fall asleep one by one. I didn't want to hurt the innocent people, so I fed the people who came to see me, but actually cheated my family out of money. Speaking of this, Gu Nian paused, and Old Madam Gu suddenly couldn't cry.

"Don't talk about it......"

Gu Nian glanced at his mother, then lowered his head.

Situ Yan had a bad premonition, frowned and asked, "How are those who see a doctor?"

Gu Nian shook his head and confessed, "They are all dead. ”

Situ Yan glanced at Old Madam Gu, then turned to Gu Nian and said, "So there are fewer and fewer people who see you for you, and we almost became your prey." ”

"Originally, I didn't want to hurt people anymore, but you said that you wanted to help me find out the truth about my wife's death, so I promised to let you stay, who knew that there was a nightmare among you, I was afraid that you would find out that I was raising monsters, so I led you to the dark room. ”

Eluo glared at Gu Nian, "Don't be an old monster monster, let me ask you, are you keeping those demons in order to prevent them from continuing to harm people, or do you not want them to be discovered by the people of Xianze Palace?"

"It's both, they haven't eaten for a long time, and my body is not as good as before, so I can't provide them with more dreams, so I have bad intentions towards Xiang'er, she is not from our family after all. And I'm afraid that she will reveal the ugly things I have done, I really deserve to die, I am sorry for my wife......" After speaking, Gu Nian cried lowly. When he cried, Old Madam Gu cried even more.

"What kind of sin our family has created, Nian'er, you are really confused!" Master Gu felt sorry for his son again, and hated that iron could not become steel, and finally sighed heavily.

Gu Nian pleaded while crying: "I caused this incident by my own hand, and I deserve to atone for my sins, but please don't embarrass my family, they don't know about it at all." ”

Situ Yan glanced down at "Ling Huayin" and said, "We won't embarrass innocent people, but your crime has to be decided by the people of Xianze Palace." ”

At this time, a Taoist priest from Xianze Palace said: "Qinghui Immortals, we have also taken away the demons in there." ”

Situ Yan nodded, "I think there shouldn't be any other nightmare demons in this town, but there is an enchantment outside the town, so these nightmare demons can't leave here, and when I destroy the enchantment, the people in the town should be able to wake up." ”

The Taoist priest of Xianze Palace hurriedly replied: "Then there is Lao Qinghui Immortal to bother, and we will return this matter to the master." ”

Gu Nian was just about to be taken away by them, when he suddenly said to Situ Yan: "Immortal, please help me find the real murderer of my wife." ”

Situ Yan nodded solemnly at him, "I will do my best." ”
