Rebel general Xiao thinks of this seat

Facing Guixuan's question, Kong Zaijin shook his head: "I don't know. I didn't find out clearly."

But Guixuan said: "It's not your fault." How can you easily inquire about the case of the Department of Punishment and Prosecution?He told him all about the minister's statement and his case, and also told him the folk rumors: "...the people say that the 'Goddess' is using these people as sacrifices."

Kong Zaijin frowned and said, "If you sacrifice, you will pursue a sense of ritual. The murderer should arrange the corpses as you said in the case, and arrange all the corpses neatly at a short distance, but we only saw the torso."

Gui Xuan: "A sloping mountain road, thunderstorms howling. The offerings prepared by the Goddess were washed away by the rainstorm. There are two possibilities: the body was washed away by the rain somewhere in the mountains, but the murderer fished in troubled waters and imitated the Goddess to satisfy his murderous desire." desire."

"The other is that these corpses were randomly thrown around in the mountains. The perpetrators had no intention of offering sacrifices at all."

Kong Zaijin: "If such a heavy rain is only on the surface of the land, it is impossible not to disperse."

Gui Xuandao: "I also prefer the first two possibilities. The possibility of imitating the first two is lower, because the dantian in the carcass is... empty."

Kong Zaijin felt a slight chill on his back: "The dantian is empty, it does taste like a sacrifice."

Guixuan shook his head: "Not necessarily. If the cultivators of the Three Realms have serious heart demons, they will degenerate into demons. As for cultivators who are originally demons, there are generally two methods of cultivation. One is to suppress the heart like a demon or a human." Demons can gain clarity of mind; the other is to go against the way, encourage demons in the heart, and cultivate by demons in the mind.”

The demons who rely on the demons to cultivate are the most difficult to control, because no one knows what they are thinking.Fortunately, there are very few demons who rely on inner demons to cultivate, because cultivating on inner demons is to raise those inner demons.Raising tigers is a trouble, and one day, these demons will be devoured by the demons.

No one wants to be taken away by a child who is attached to him.

Gui Xuan paused, and said: "Some demons satisfy their inner demons by killing people, so as to improve their cultivation. If a murderer kills or takes someone's dantian just for his own inner demons, it is not necessarily a sacrifice. "

Kong Zaijin recalled his words just now, and reminded him puzzledly: "The possibility of not offering sacrifices is very low."

"Low doesn't mean no. Brother, don't be limited by my words."

Kong Zaijin was taken aback for a moment, understood Guixuan's good intentions, and said: "Okay."

While speaking, Guixuan had already seen the "stone" just now, and when he got closer, it was an arm!He squatted down, and found that the thick arm had been mostly buried by the sand washed by the rain.

He pushed aside the sand, observed carefully, and said to Kong Zaijin, "Brother, look."

Seeing that Guixuan had no fear, Kong Zaijin dared to look at the stiff arm and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gui Xuan touched the palm of his arm in front of him: "You can tell a lot from a person's hands. For example, you can tell from the calluses whether he practices martial arts, and you can tell from the wound that the perpetrator's techniques are extremely unfamiliar. Another example... look at his nails." Gui Xuan didn't finish, but let him guess.

Kong Zai looked intently, and under the light of the night pearl, he found a pink silk thread between the nails of his hand? !He immediately told Gui Xuan.Gui Xuan said, "Not enough, I'll see."

Kong Zaijin looked at it for a long time but couldn't see it, Guixuan had no choice but to put his hand together with that hand, and asked, "Brother, compare, the difference between my hand and his hand."

The black-clothed boy's hands are well-knit, and his fingers are long and slender, just like a good Wanyan. His nails are moist and neatly trimmed, and he will not delay holding the sword because of his long nails.

but!The nails of that corpse were so long that a strand of pink silk thread could be dug in between the nails!

Kong Zaijin was enlightened: "This man clearly practices martial arts, but his nails are too long! He probably didn't practice martial arts for a while when he was alive."

"He must have met something before he was alive, which caused him to not practice martial arts for at least half a month." Guixuan glanced at the pink silk thread: "This pink thread...is it left between the nails for what?"

The two couldn't help thinking in place.

A gust of wind swept by, blowing the rain into the narrow space under the umbrella.Guixuan moved unconsciously, covering the wind and rain, just like he covered other people's malicious eyes.

Kong Zaijin noticed Guixuan's movements and lowered his eyes in silence.

Gui Xuan put his arm into the storage bag and said, "Let's go, let's go back."

Kong Zai held an umbrella and walked back with him at a leisurely pace, but his peripheral vision unconsciously fell on the pensive face of the boy in black.

The woods behind made strange friction sounds in the wind and rain, and the leaves collided with each other, as if hopeless prisoners were roaring, or like ghosts who wanted to kill people watching their shadows, giggling.

The violent rain poured down and filled several small ponds.Seeing that Kong Zaijin's pair of cloud treading boots were about to step into the puddle, Guixuan frowned and said, "Let me hold the umbrella." After saying that, he calmly turned Kong Zaijin to the side by holding the umbrella bone A pull.

Kong Zaijin followed Guixuan's movements and took a few steps, and was about to ask him why he suddenly wanted to hold an umbrella, but he stepped over Guixuan's shoulder, and was distracted by a pair of eyes with cracked canthus! !

He immediately stuffed the umbrella with Guixuan, pulled out the wind from the sheath, and stabbed the owner of the eyes hastily!

The owner of those wide-eyed, bloodshot eyes is actually a young woman!The woman was dressed in pink, her hair was soaked in rain, and her hair was in a mess. Her clothes were torn, revealing a large area of ​​skin rubbed in wet mud.

Gui Xuan didn't help, and on the surface he stood leisurely with an umbrella on one side, but he was actually counting the flaws that Kong Zaijin showed when he was fighting with the crazy woman.

Kong Zaijin's cultivation level is high, but he has little combat experience and insufficient defense, especially when facing such a desperate opponent, he is quite flustered.

Fortunately, he has a strong self-adjustment ability, and he is gradually accumulating actual combat experience in the fight with the woman who looks like a female ghost.

The female ghost's strategy works this time, so Kong Zaijin will definitely be able to avoid it next time!Sometimes, he can also see through the female ghost's thoughts and strike her back with a sword!

The female ghost is not strong, she just gave Kong Zaijin experience, so Guixuan is not worried about Kong Zaijin's danger, he is more concerned about the girl's pink dress with five scratches on her body.

What is the relationship between the deceased and the woman in pink?

Soon, the woman was subdued by Kong Zaijin.The woman yelled hoarsely in the rain, feeling extremely agitated.

Guixuan stepped forward and tied the woman, and dragged her back like a sack.

Kong Zaijin asked, "Is it the silk thread on this woman's body?"

"It is very likely."

"Then she is the murderer?"

Gui Xuandao: "Someone died a few days ago, it is not impossible for the murderer to stay at the scene to observe. It's just..."

"Just what?"

"It's very smooth." Gui Xuan said, "It's very smooth to find the murderer as soon as the deceased is discovered. I suspect that she is not the real murderer, but a cover. She is very weak, at least not strong enough to be the murderer of the previous cases. "

The Department of Corrections and Prosecutions rushed to the scene several times, but the murderer was nowhere to be found while the body was still warm.If this woman did it, then the Department of Corrections and Prosecutions under the Demon Lord would be weak.

Kong Zaijin: "So, the secret she stays here is more important, isn't it?"

"Yes." Gui Xuan gave Kong Zaijin an analysis: "Assuming that the silk thread belongs to a woman, then she is most likely the person who had a violent dispute with the man before her death. We took the man's arm away, and she followed, which means The man has a certain meaning to her. The man is dead, so the clue is in the woman."

Kong Zaijin glanced at the woman who looked like a mad dog, and asked, "What can I ask from her?"

Gui Xuan leisurely said: "A lunatic can't tell lies, he can only tell the truth of what he sees. So sometimes, torturing a lunatic is more worry-free and labor-saving than torture some people who pretend to be smart."

Kong Zaijin went with him to collect the carcass.As soon as he was about to get into the carriage, Kong Zaijin took Gui Xuan's hand and asked, "Who are you?"

Yuan Zhao broke free from his hand without showing any signs, and smiled gently: "Guixuan, the surname is not Guixuan." Hearing the words of "Guixuan", the woman was like a dying fish, and pulled out all her strength to catch the fish. jump.

The whole carriage shook three times.

Yuan Zhao glanced at the woman inside indifferently.The woman trembled inexplicably, and the strength of her struggle became weak.

Kong Zaijin stared straight at him: "Master Gui knows a lot."

Guixuan got into the carriage, left him a shadow, and said, "Brother, it's because you have too little experience."

The coachman was knocked out in the car by Gui Xuan, and when he woke up, he was about to mumble "blood" again. Gui Xuan said gently: "When the carriage stopped, we found you fell asleep. You may be too tired."

The coachman was a little dazed: "But I..."

Guixuan grinned, and said innocently: "There is no blood outside the car. My brother and I went for a walk outside while you were asleep, and we didn't see any blood."

The coachman was completely confused: "Huh?"

Guixuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Really not. It's getting dark, hurry up."

As soon as the coachman heard that it was dark, he was in no mood to worry about blood, and immediately rode his horse down the mountain.

Because there was an extra woman in the carriage, and the woman occupied Gui Xuan's seat, Gui Xuan had to move aside with Kong Zaijin.

The rain has subsided, and a ray of sunshine penetrates into the car.

The woman kept kicking her feet, trying to break free.Guixuan was extremely helpless, the woman's feet kept kicking towards him, and if he leaned towards Kong Zaijin again, he would have to cling to the young apprentice.

For example, now, his and Kong Zaijin's thighs are completely touching each other.Kong Zaijin knew how to measure and didn't say anything, he could only shrink back to make room for him.

At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped!

Yuan Zhao had to lean forward due to inertia, he grabbed the car door frame and almost put his whole body on Kong Zaijin's body.

The two foreheads collided viciously, and Kong Zaijin gritted his teeth and bared his lips in pain.He raised his eyes and bumped into those deep jade-like pupils.The heart that was slumbering in his chest skipped a beat.

He is too familiar with this feeling, and this is how he feels towards his master.

But the person in front of him is not the master, but... Guixuan.

Kong Zaijin thought in a daze: What's wrong with me?

Yuan Zhao propped himself up and rubbed his forehead.The voice of soldiers asking was heard from outside the car.Seeing Ghost Xuan's face turn black, Qu Shu asked worriedly, "Are you all right?"

Yuan Zhao smiled, but his eyes were cold: "Of course it's okay."

Qu Shu thought, that's not what you said in your smile, your smile clearly harbors ill intentions.

Yuan Zhao faintly swept over the woman who was still struggling, and slashed at her with a hand blade.After he knocked the woman unconscious, he smiled sincerely and said, "The world is quiet now."

Because of a soldier's inquiry, he untied the rope on the woman's body, covered her with a robe, and roughly arranged the woman's image with magic.Hold the woman and let her lean on his shoulders, pretending that they are a pair of siblings or a pair of lovers.

The soldiers guarding the gate of Jiuyou City stopped their carriage and routinely checked the people in the carriage. Seeing the young man with a strange face, he trembled and let him go with a shake of his hand.

The carriage walked for a long distance before the soldier slowed down: "My God, it's been a long time since I saw such an ugly monster."

It is impossible for the people in the carriage to know the feelings of the soldiers.

Qushu's family is an official, and his father is a high-ranking minister in Jiuyou Palace, the fiefdom of ghost cars.But Qu Shu's father wanted him to be an official in Shanghai, but Qu Shu didn't have the ambition.He just wanted to get an official job in the ghost car fiefdom, or make a living by his calligraphy and painting, and live a happy life with Lan Lan.

After Qu Shu sent Lan Lan home, he brought the guests into the house through the main entrance, and Qu Shu's father just came back from Jiuyou Palace.Qu Shu's father's face turned purple, obviously he was angry in Jiuyou Palace.

Seeing his father's bad face from a distance, Qu Shu said anxiously, "Let's go this way quickly, and don't let my father see me."

But the least desirable thing is often the most likely thing to happen.Qu Shu's father came this way and called out loudly, "Qu Shu!"

Qu Shu froze, and quickly ordered the servant next to him: "Take these two gentlemen to the guest bedroom in my courtyard so that they can settle down."

Qu Shu's father was walking like flying, seeing Kong Zaijin's breathing was stagnant, he said with difficulty: "...Why don't you treat some guests well?"

Gui Xuan supported the woman, and smiled politely: "No need, she is not feeling well and wants to rest."

Only then did Qu Shu's father notice Gui Xuan and the unconscious woman next to him, and he didn't pay much attention.It so happened that he happened to have something to talk to Qu Shu, so he said, "Then invite the guests to have a good rest."

Gui Xuan nodded: "I won't bother you two anymore." After speaking, he took the woman and Kong Zaijin and walked away with the servant.The servant arranged a room for the group of them.

Gui Xuan thanked the servant and put the woman on the bed.After waiting for a while, he went to knock on Kong Zaijin's door again.

Kong Zaijin opened the door and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
