Jianghuke

Chi Heting had never been so "considerate" in his two lifetimes. He was so shocked that he froze in place for a moment.

Seeing that he was still not moving, Gu Miao asked, "Aren't you leaving?"

He woke up from his stupor, quickly pulled back his sleeves, and said, "I'll go by myself."

"Then be quiet."

Chi Heting: "..."

In the final analysis, I still feel that I am noisy.

He obediently shut his mouth, for fear that Gu Miao would say something surprising later.

Without Chi's chatter, the two quickly arrived under the old pagoda tree on the top of the slope.Chi Heting took out a small incense tower from the package and lit it with a torch.Wisps of thin smoke hovered upwards, and the buzzing flies dispersed abruptly, and even the stench on the trees faded a lot, so it wasn't so disgusting after all.

Chi Heting glanced at the canopy of the locust tree, then turned his head in disgust, and said, "There are so many, not one or two people can make it. It seems that the rumors of Chidie are indeed a bit outrageous. Could it be that they think you have Three heads and six arms, with all-powerful means?"

"It's not unusual." Gu Miao stepped on the soil under her feet, frowned and said, "It's true. The body was not buried under the tree."

There will be traces of weapons on the corpse, especially the location of the fatal wound. Even if it is a little bit rotten, you can barely distinguish one or two. If you are lucky, you may find other clues.

If the body cannot be found, then this strange matter will really become a headless case, and there is no way to start.

Chi Heting did not give up and wanted to climb up the tree to have a look, but Gu Miao stopped him and said, "Forget it, let's go."

"Just leave like this?" He said in astonishment, "Even if you can find a little clue, are you willing to be framed?"

"It has nothing to do with my reputation." Gu Miao saw it clearly, "Even if it proves that I didn't do it, Chidie is still Chidie, and countless people want my life. Why bother?" Vain."

"Wait, don't rush away, let me think about it again, it's almost there." Chi Heting pondered, "I always feel...that mummy looks like I've seen it somewhere before."

Before he had time to catch the flash of familiarity, there was a sudden whirling sound like rain hitting the eaves on the low slope, and it was like a mouse gnawing on things under the bed, neat and unrecognizable. place.

Gu Miao drew out her long sword and looked around vigilantly.There were rustling sounds one after another, and after listening to them for a long time, it seemed like countless people were whispering in my ears, making a lot of noise, but I couldn't make out what they were talking about.

Suddenly, a hand put on his shoulder, and he almost threw him out.Looking back at Chi Heting's pale complexion, although Gu Miao's complexion was not very good, she still didn't have an attack after all, and comforted dryly: "It's okay."

The hand grasping Gu Miao's shoulder was extremely strong, and the veins on the back of the hand were bulging, almost piercing into the flesh.

"I remembered, that's not an ordinary mummy." Chi Heting looked down at the steep slope, trembling slightly, his eyes couldn't tell whether it was disgust or fear, "It's... Shui Sha."

As if to confirm what he said, under the wet and soft black soil, countless skinny hands suddenly stretched out, the soil trembled, and the rustling sound instantly became clear, like a dead soul buried deep in the ground groping and crawling, wanting to return to the world .

Seeing this appalling scene, Chi Heting sternly shouted: "Go!"

The two of them rushed out like arrows from the string, and ran down the slope desperately with light work, passing the hands covered in black mud dangerously, and ran out of the short slope almost in the blink of an eye.

Looking back, some mummy had just crawled out half of their bodies, half buried in the soil, struggling slowly; Roll into a ball.

Gu Miao looked at those inhuman and ghost-like things from a distance, and said in horror, "What exactly is that?"

"It's not suitable to stay here for long, leave first." Chi Heting said in a hoarse voice, "Shui Sha is covered in poison, you didn't get touched, did you?"

"No." Gu Miao really wanted to remind him again that she was not afraid of poison at all, but seeing his frightened appearance, she swallowed back the words that came to her lips.

Forget it.

When he returned to the inn, Chi Heting was still somewhat absent-minded, his mind was in a state of uncertainty, and his hand was almost scalded by the hot tea.

He really couldn't figure it out.

If this matter is really related to Xuanzong, what is Fang Hongxuan planning?

In her last life, Gu Miao was forced to die by a killing order, and disappeared for five full years before finally falling into Fang Hongxuan's hands.Since Xuanzong has such an extraordinary ability, he can even dig three feet to find a "dead person", so why bother to ruin Chidie's reputation in advance?

Moreover, he himself was not able to participate in this matter at the beginning, Fang Hongxuan didn't reveal anything about it, presumably it was left to Xuanzong's most secret dark hall to do it.He has painstakingly arranged for ten years... or even longer, what is there in Chi Die that is worthy of such careful planning? ? ?

He thought for a long time, but couldn't figure it out.

After all, he was too focused on the things that Fang Hongxuan entrusted to him, and devoted himself to being the most obedient and sharpest knife in his hands, and in the end... he ended up with nothing.

"Achi?"

Chi Heting raised his eyes, hid the darkness in his eyes just right, put on a slight smile, and said nonchalantly: "I'll tell Xiaoer to boil hot water, and you also take a bath and change your clothes, or you won't be able to eat dinner later." I can't eat anymore."

The two were quite embarrassed on the short slope.When he first entered the store, Xiao Er looked at them as if they were beggars. If he hadn't had quick eyesight and quick hand to take out a piece of silver and pat it on the counter, he would have been kicked out on the spot.

Gu Miao didn't get up immediately, but stared at him for a moment, and said, "You know those things."

Seeing his inquisitive posture, Chi Heting felt a headache, rubbed his forehead and said, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything. Take a bath first, then eat, and talk while eating."

Gu Miao looked at him suspiciously, her face full of disbelief.

"..." Chi Heting was amused by his appearance, "Are you afraid that I will run away? Why don't you just squat by the bucket and watch me take a shower? I have no clothes to wear, so I definitely can't run away."

Listen, what are you talking about?

Gu Meiren rolled her eyes, got up and went to the next room.

When he came back again, he had already changed into a set of blue clothes, which were slightly wet and limp, clinging to his body thinly, and his long black hair was wetly twisted into strands, casually draped over his shoulders.After entering the room, he glanced at the food and wine on the table, and naturally walked around the horizontal screen in the middle of the room, and said, "Have you finished washing?"

Chi Heting: "..."

Chi Heting: "You didn't knock when you entered the house???"

Gu Miao raised her eyebrows, seeing his distressed appearance soaked in the barrel, she suddenly laughed, and teased, "I thought you ran away."

"Didn't run away. Have you seen enough?" Seeing that he didn't have the slightest intention to quit, Chi Heting thought for a while, and felt that there was nothing he couldn't see, so he stood up from the bucket with a "crash" and stepped out calmly. Come out and pass a provocative look.

The moment he got out of the water, Gu Miao took half a step back, pulled off the clothes hanging on the screen, and threw his head and face at him, trying to cover some unsightly parts.

When the stench hit, Chi Heting turned pale with shock, and quickly avoided, saying, "Gu Sanshui! Those are dirty clothes!"

Gu Miao: "Then I'll go wash my hands again." She left the room logically.

Chi Heting: "..."

After a quarter of an hour, there was a polite knock on the door.

"Come in."

Gu Miao poked her head in: "Are you ready?"

"I don't have any strange hobbies." Chi Heting opened his clothes, lazily resting his chin with one hand, poured himself a glass of wine to suppress his shock, and filled the other wine glass, "Have a drink? "

"Don't drink."

"You can't drink?"

"No." Gu Miao hesitated for a moment, and added, "I only drink when I'm unhappy."

"Oh?" Chi Heting's curiosity was aroused, and he asked, "Then what do you drink when you are happy?"

"Eat spicy."

Chi Heting: "???"

He recalled the only time Gu Miao ate spicy food since they met.I was chased and killed by a group of people on Songshan Mountain until I was exhausted. I couldn’t see clearly and lost my medicine. After I was hungry for a long time and arrived at the other hospital, I ignored my injuries and asked myself for spicy food.

……

What is there to be happy about?

Well, it seems that he should be happy to escape from death.

Gu Miao didn't care what he was thinking, she put her clothes on and sat down opposite, without even touching her chopsticks, she asked, "What is Shui Sha?"
