From this point of view, this patriarch really has a lot of bad luck, so many things happened to him alone

"However, I haven't heard the cries of the ghost baby recently," the patriarch hurriedly explained. In his opinion, this matter has passed, and there is no need to bring it up again.

The ghost baby, who disappeared recently, the thief who stole...

Shi Yi always felt in his heart that there was some kind of connection between them.

"Brother, do you think they are related?" He leaned in front of Yun Xin and asked in a low voice

"I can't see it for the time being. Let's come one by one. If you peel off the cocoon, you will always find the problem."

Shi nodded, and suddenly a flash in his mind opened his mouth and he said, "Patriarch, you said that those two rooms have been listed as forbidden areas since then, and people in the village are not allowed to approach casually, so who cleaned them before we moved in yesterday?" Room"

"There was no one to clean, and several Taoist priests came to visit suddenly. I was not prepared at all. I didn't know how to let these Taoist priests live in the haunted room."

It doesn't look like the patriarch is lying

"Since you never wanted to let people approach you, how did Mr. Hong live there?" Yun Channel

"Mr. Hong has been living in my house before, but my family has a large population, and Mr. Hong likes to be clean, so he proposed to live in the room before the wizard, but, but..." The patriarch couldn't remember why he let Mr. Hong He couldn't remember the process of moving in.

Seeing the patriarch's reaction, Shi Yi already understood that Chi Yan used spells to confuse the patriarch in order to get the patriarch to agree to live in the haunted house, but with Chi Yan's personality and cultivation, why would it take so much trouble?And why let these people live in together, is there something he can't solve, and wants to help him with the hands of a few people?

"Brother, it seems we were used by Chi Yan"

"Well, I thought so too"

This matter is getting more and more complicated. Several seemingly unrelated things are intertwined to form a net, and several people are netted in it, and Chi Yan is the one who weaves the net.

"Then we will count on it?"

There is no better way now, the only one who suffers from the frontal conflict is myself

"He will always show his fox tail," Yun Xin said in a low voice

The patriarch looked at the voices of several Taoist priests and suddenly lowered his voice, as if there was something convenient for him to know

The patriarch is not a person without eyesight, but he vaguely heard that things seemed to have changed, so he hurriedly spoke

"Several Taoists, didn't they agree to save those villagers first?"

"Don't worry, things have changed. They are not the root cause of the problem. Even if they are rescued first, the problem cannot be completely solved. Only by finding the root cause can the abnormal situation in the village be eliminated."

What Yun Xin said is half-truth and half-false, it is true that there is no rush to save things, there are more important situations that need to be dealt with, and the truth is that Yun Xin doesn't know how these things are necessarily connected

But what Yun Xin said was true, the patriarch was stunned when he heard it, and he kept laughing beside him, "It's still the Taoist leader who can see through it."

Back in the room again, the movements of several people were very careful, for fear of falling into some trap again

"Yun Xing, can you see if there is any soul body in the room?" Yun Xin is not like Shi Yi, who opened the sky eye before practicing. The cultivation base is sealed, and the ability of the sky eye also disappears along with it

"No, the house is very clean. Not only is it clean, but there are no ghosts. By the way, I remember a child playing with a rattle on the beam. I thought it was a wild cat who brought it here."

"Fang Liang?" Yun Xin raised his head and searched back and forth. After seeing the location clearly, he jumped up and took the rattle down from the Fang Liang.

Before Yun Xin could take a closer look, the patriarch pointed to the rattle and shouted, "This is my grandson's, or I bought it from the city myself, and there is a hole in one side."

Yun Xin flipped through it casually, and it was really like the patriarch said, there was a hole

"what happened?"

Yun Xin asked impatiently, why does this patriarch always hide things and never explain anything clearly?

The patriarch didn't care about Yun Xin's tone, and eased the surprise in his heart

"That's what happened. Before the village lost things, they were all worthless things. Almost every family lost them. My family just lost a child's rattle. I didn't expect to find it here, so I never spoke to the priest.”

"Then what things were lost in the village before?" Shi Yi thought for a while and asked

"Well, what children's clothes, rice, pillows, quilts, bowls, etc., and children's toys, yes, almost all of the lost things are related to children."

"It seems that this makes sense, these are all stolen for the "ghost baby""

"Brother, why did he leave here suddenly, and why did he start stealing money?"

"He has to tell us personally." The corners of Yun Xin's mouth twitched slightly, his eyes shone slightly

When he jumped up to take the rattle just now, Yun Xin saw a layer of dust on the beams of the house, and on the dust, there was a row of small footprints, which disappeared towards the direction of the roof transom

A few people came out of the house, and the connection outside the transom window was the mountain

The vegetation on the mountain is dense, and those who are not familiar with it will easily get lost if they go up rashly.

Seeing that the Taoist chiefs insisted on going to the mountain to find them, the patriarch sent a guide who was familiar with the mountain roads to follow them.

When Yun Xin saw the guide, he immediately burst out laughing.

This guide is none other than the boy who hurt the beauty the day before

The boy named Abona now has a bandage on his head, his arms are hung around his neck, his eyes are dodging, and he dare not look directly at the few people

The patriarch said with some embarrassment, "He is the only one who is familiar with the mountain roads in the village. Regardless of his young age, he has followed his grandfather to collect medicine in the mountains since he was a child. No one is more suitable than him." Besides," the patriarch sneakily approached Yun In Xin's ear, he whispered, "Besides, give him a chance to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds."

With a smile in his eyes, Yun Xin indicated that he couldn't make the decision and had to ask Shi Yi

The patriarch turned around again, looked at Shi Yi and smirked

How can I say that the patriarch is also a man in his 50s and [-]s, and he smiled wryly at himself, so he couldn't get angry

"Then let him go with us, but judging by his appearance, if he walks slowly, we won't wait for him." When Shi saw the beauty, he had no objection and agreed to the patriarch's request.

After taking some dry food, they walked towards the mountain

The path in the mountains is blocked by trees, it is not easy to walk, and the few people have no specific destination, so the speed is very slow

Seeing that it was getting late, the dry food brought by the few people had already been eaten. If there is no clue, they can only return in vain

"Is there any cave on this mountain that can accommodate people?" Yun Xin pushed aside a tree branch in front of him and asked

"No, my grandpa and I have walked countless times, but we have never seen a cave where people can live, but there is a cave where black bears live, and we usually walk around it."

"Then take us to see"

"Master Dao, there are black bears there that can eat people, I'm afraid..."

Yun Xin glanced at him, "Then have you seen that black bear?"

"No, but someone has seen it at the mouth of the cave"

"Just at the entrance of the cave? Nowhere else?"

"Really not"

"That's right, you lead the way."

"Oh, good." Although he didn't know what to do, the boy subconsciously agreed with Yun Xin.
