Chapter 20 The Silent Empty Grave
Jin Xiangyi's gaze followed the direction Su Xinling pointed, and when he looked up, he saw five rotting human heads hanging on the branches above his head, each of which was facing the position of a corpse.

Jin Xiangyi was shocked by this terrifying scene, and couldn't help feeling a bit terrifying.She stepped back so that the liquified rot from the head would not drip onto her head.

"Stay back." Yu Xuanchi said.

Su Xinling's voice trembled: "Yes, could it be done by the headless general? Except for the headless general, no one should cut off a person's head like this, right?"

"It's not a headless general. A headless general will kill someone with a head. The head will not be well preserved, let alone put the deceased in such a pose." Yu Xuanchi replied.

His eyes swept several corpses a few times, and then he pointed out a new discovery: "The five corpses are all facing the same direction. The murderer made them kneel in a pious posture, as if repenting."

Jin Xiangyi frowned slightly: "Repent? Repent for what? Repent to whom?"

Yu Xuanchi followed the direction the corpse was facing and turned to look.

Kinka Yi felt strange, and followed to look forward.

At this moment, she saw the wide field of vision ahead.On the endless field, the farmland is connected together, and you can see peasants ploughing the fields and peasant women busying their houses.Occasionally, a few farmhouses will emit a few wisps of cooking smoke.

She said: "Looking from here, it is Wuyue Village. All you can see are the villagers, farmhouses, and fields. There is nothing special."

"No, it's very special." Yu Xuanchi's cold voice drifted over with the wind.

Jin Xiangyi was puzzled: "What's so special?"

At this time, Su Xinling came over.She grabbed the handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose, stretched her fingers in one direction, and said:
"There is the home of the two brothers and sisters of Song Yuyun. From this direction, the first thing you see is their home."

Hearing this, Jin Xiangyi's eyes widened slightly: "Ah? Is that so?" She looked at Yu Xuanchi, waiting for him to answer.

Yu Xuanchi said: "The murderer wants the corpse to repent to Song Yuyun." He raised his forearm slightly and pointed out a direction:
"Across the thatched cottage of the Song Yuyun brothers and sisters, you can see the hill where Song Yuyun was buried. At the same height as this is the tomb of Song Yuyun."

They have been to Song Yuyun's grave, and also to her home.The two places are not far from each other, and it is also very close to this abandoned corpse site.The distance of three o'clock is so connected.

In an instant, Jin Xiangyi felt a little creepy.

Several questions swirled in her mind: What grudges do these five people have with the Song Yuyun brothers and sisters?Why would the murderer do this?Who killed the five of them?
Suddenly, Jin Xiangyi recalled a sentence in his mind:

——“One day, he went crazy and said he wanted revenge, smashed the table and ran out the door…”

A flash of light flashed in Jin Xiangyi's mind: "Could it be that these five people were the gangsters who defiled Song Yuyun in the first place? Song Yi was the one who killed them?
"In order to avenge his sister, he cut off the heads of these five people, abandoned the corpses in the wilderness, and made them face Song Yuyun's grave day and night to repent?"

Yu Xuanchi was silent, apparently tacitly acquiescing to her speculation.

Su Xinling's tone was full of sighs: "If this is the case, then these five people can be regarded as evil and evil."

Jin Xiangyi also sighed: "I just don't know where Song Yi is now."

Su Xinling: "His sister is the only relative he cares about in this world. Now that her sister has passed away with hatred, he must be very uncomfortable."

Jin Xiangyi sighed and turned to look at Yu Xuanchi.Seeing that he was silent, he touched him with his arm: "What are you thinking?"

Yu Xuanchi lowered his eyelids and said, "The clues about Song Yuyun's death stop here. On the surface, her death has nothing to do with Lan Yi's disappearance, but..."

He paused for a while, then put his sleeves together and put his hands behind him: "I need to go to Song Yuyun's tomb again."

The next moment, he turned into light and left, disappearing in place.

Jin Xiangyi: "???"

She looked at Su Xinling blankly: "What does your master mean?"

Su Xinling was also confused: "I, I don't know either."

Near Xiangyi: "..."

She waved her hand helplessly and said, "Forget it, let's go after him and see what he's up to." She grabbed Su Xinling's hand and shrunk her into an inch: "Follow closely."

In the blink of an eye, Jin Xiangyi flashed back to Song Yuyun's grave with Su Xinling.

At that time, Yu Xuanchi was standing behind the tombstone with his hands up and down, looking down at the grave dug under his feet.

"What the hell are you looking at?" Jin Xiangyi said as he leaned over to look, "The girl is already very pitiful, and you are still digging her grave..."

Before she could finish speaking, her voice caught in her throat.She stared blankly at the empty tomb, unable to utter a single word for a moment.

Ok?
What's the matter, Song Yuyun's tomb is also empty?Like the corpses of the common people in the city, she was deceived and turned into a headless general, right?
Su Xinling followed and leaned over: "This..."

Jin Xiangyi said hesitantly, "You guys say, is it possible that the first headless general to appear is Song Yuyun?"

Su Xinling: "Or, maybe..."

The speculation about Song Yuyun's corpse was just a casual remark by Jin Xiangyi, and it was impossible to really take this as an idea.

The three of them returned to the inn one after the other. At that time, many people gathered in the lobby and chatted, not knowing what they were talking about.

On this trip, Jin Xiangyi felt a little thirsty, and immediately took a teapot and poured water.

Although she is a celestial priest, in the final analysis, she is a tree.

Trees need water. Without water, the bark will crack.

At this time, she heard the people around her talking:

"Today is an auspicious time for the funeral. It's time for the burial. Half an hour ago, Xu Zuozuo sent someone to say that after an hour, please go to the grave mountain and send people to be buried."

"Oh, these days, we in Yanbo City don't know how many people have died. When will these hard days end?"

"It's not that the shopkeeper asked the fairy to help, and I don't know if it will work or not."

"Oh, don't talk about it. During this time, are there still few cultivators who have invited demons? I don't think these two immortals are good enough."

Hearing this, Kinka Yi immediately put down the teacup.She stood up and said, "Who said we can't do it? Last night, I caught quite a few headless generals. Although they have all turned into bones, I still have the ability to deal with headless generals!"

All the people turned to look at her.

Those who spoke in the lobby were all women, and their eyes looked at Jin Xiangyi: "Are you the immortal invited by the shopkeeper?"

"Yes, that's right." Jin Xiangyi has always spoken bluntly, saying something without any euphemism:

"I only heard you say that the body is going to be buried tonight. That's not good. If the body is buried, it won't take long for them to become headless generals and come to claim their lives. I think you'd better cremated the body."

Only cremation is safe and the hidden danger can be completely eliminated.

A woman was surprised: "You, what nonsense are you talking about, how can you cremate the corpse? The body is skinned, and it is the parents. Our husband has already died without a whole body. If it is set on fire again, what will happen to them under the nine springs? peaceful?!"
