Urban Witcher

Ye Shaoyang felt as if he had fallen into a huge mystery.

Suddenly Chen Yue said it, and Ye Shaoyang looked up, and at the top of the mountain, there was a bamboo forest beside it, and there was a clear spring, which converged into a stream and flowed down the mountain along the edge of the bamboo forest.

Ye Shaoyang obviously felt that this place is full of aura, and it is indeed a good place to practice, no wonder Shi Daosheng always came here.

The matter of digging the grave is naturally left to Ye Shaoyang.

Ye Shaoyang dug for a long time, feeling a little urgent to urinate, so he excused himself to rest for a while, went around the neighborhood, entered the bamboo forest alone, and Chen Yue's voice came from behind: "If it's convenient for you, try to go as far away as possible, don't defile this place, but also Don't go too far, there is a landslide over there, don't fall off the cliff..."

Ye Shaoyang agreed embarrassingly, and walked deep into the bamboo forest. Suddenly, a raised grave bag attracted him, and his intuition attracted him to walk over.

There is no grass on the grave, which means that the burial time will not be too long.

Ye Shaoyang's heart skipped a beat, thinking of something, he hurried to the side for convenience, returned to Chen Yue's side, talked about it, and the three of them came to the grave together.

"It didn't exist before... There's no tombstone here either, so I don't know whose grave it is." Turning around, seeing Ye Shaoyang staring at her with a strange expression, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Well, could this be your own grave?" Ye Shaoyang expressed his thoughts.

Chen Yue was stunned for a moment. "I?"

"This place is only your Taoist temple. Those residents at the foot of the mountain will not bury the dead here, right? And the soil on the grave is still loose. It seems that the burial will take about a month..."

Chen Yue looked at the grave, was stunned for a long time, and murmured: "If I am buried in the grave, then... who am I?"

This question is rather weird.

"Isn't it? Just dig up the grave and have a look." Guagua persuaded.

Naturally, Ye Shaoyang had to do this job, and he happened to have a shovel in his hand, so he started digging.

Digging the grave was not an easy task. Even though Ye Shaoyang was physically strong, it took him half an hour to dig up the grave, revealing a dark red coffin.

Ye Shaoyang glanced at Chen Yue. Chen Yue was a little nervous and stood by the side without saying a word.

Ye Shaoyang inserted the pointed end of the shovel into the gap between the coffin lid and the bottom, and pried it hard, but it opened, which meant that the coffin had not been nailed.

After digging on the side for a while, the nearby soil was cleaned up, and then the shovel was inserted in, which was used as a lever to push the coffin lid aside.

The three of them looked inside together.

In the coffin—nothing.

Chen Yue took a deep breath, sat down on the side, and murmured: "How could this be..."

Ye Shaoyang was also at a loss, the two of them worked together and checked around the coffin again, there was really nothing there, only this empty coffin.

"Does this mean that I'm really not dead?" Chen Yue said silently.

"You are a living person." Ye Shaoyang never doubted this point. There is Yang Qi in a living person, and as an immortal himself, if he can't even perceive Yang Qi, it's useless.

"I think your master did all of this." Ye Shaoyang reconsidered the existing clues and speculated, "First, you are a living person, but your master said that you died of a sudden illness and sent a funeral to the village. , and then ask everyone to help with the burial... You were indeed in the coffin at the time, but after the burial, she dug up the grave and got you out again, but the villagers didn't know the truth and thought you were dead.

If my guess is correct, you entered the fantasy space of Xingyue Slave only after you came out of the coffin... and not long after, your master also died, and he committed suicide, locking yourself in the house until we just Finding her body... the sequence of events, that's how it should be. "

Chen Yue looked at him blankly and said, "Why did my master do this?"

"I have to ask your master about this." Ye Shaoyang pouted at Taoist Shi's body.

"You... want to use soul searching?"

Ye Shaoyang froze for a moment, shook his head and said: "I just said casually, your master is a Taoist priest, and soul searching is of no use to her. If she wants to say something, she will naturally leave some clues to tell you the truth. If not, then she just doesn't want to." you know."

Chen Yue looked at Taoist Shi's body, and was in a daze.

"I don't know the reason why your master did this, but I can think of the motive. It is to create an illusion that you are dead, and to use the mouth of those villagers to tell others that you are dead. She notified the villagers to come to the funeral, just to show them One look at you when you died—it’s likely that some spell or elixir was used on you to keep you in suspended animation during the burial process, it shouldn’t be difficult for her to do this, right?”

Chen Yue was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "My master practices Quanzhen Taoism and is good at alchemy. If you want to keep people in suspended animation, you can just use Lost Soul to lure them. It will not be a problem to last for a few days with her mana."

"That's it. After you are buried, the villagers will disperse. From then on, everyone will know that you are dead."

"Why?"

"I said, I don't know." Ye Shaoyang spread his hands, "However, I have an idea that all of this may be done on purpose for someone to see. Think about it, if someone comes to you and asks about it in the mountain village, everyone Everyone agrees that you are dead - they are all irrelevant people, it is impossible to unite to deceive people, no matter how powerful your master is, he will not be able to buy so many people, this makes people have to believe, and then your grave is still here , the other party will generally not go to dig a grave to confirm, right?"

After Chen Yue digested it, Ye Shaoyang continued to analyze, "Then, she committed suicide herself, which means that there is no proof of death. If he is alive, the person who is looking for you will definitely ask her about your death. She is afraid that if she tells you Leaking—after all, this is an illusion arranged by her, and if it is false, there will always be flaws, and only when she dies can there be no proof of death...Well, these are all my guesses. "

After talking about this analysis, Ye Shaoyang gradually felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, and suddenly discovered that he was also very smart.

Chen Yue thought for a while, then asked: "Are you going to commit suicide just because you are worried that you will leak the secret? How serious is it, and it is worth her doing it and putting her own life in it?"

"I don't know, but I think that the person who is looking for you must not be doing something good. If I'm right... Your master has done all this with all his heart, but in the final analysis it was to protect you."

When Chen Yue heard this, tears came down again immediately, and she covered her mouth with one hand, suppressing her sadness.

"Mother, this is the end of the matter, don't be too sad, let's find a way to figure out the problem first." Guagua took her hand to comfort her.
