I have just been promoted to Qianhu, and I was shocked to hear that this is a Liaozhai!

Chapter 43 Yin Locust Wood Puppet
Zhengqi Villa? !
When Zuo Dao heard this name, the first thing he thought of was the dilapidated villa where the giant corpse was hidden in his previous life.

If this is the case, then the giant corpse in the villa was most likely created by the subordinates of the old demon from Black Mountain.

That giant corpse was not Fan Quan's son, it was a giant corpse that had just been transformed.

That thing in the villa has existed for who knows how many years, and it has swallowed several people now, so it may be a bit troublesome.

Du Wanshan saw that Zuo Dao had been silent for a long time, and immediately said, "My lord, I don't know. This Zhengqi Villa has indeed been abandoned for more than a hundred years."

"According to the county records here, more than a hundred years ago, Zhengqi Villa was full of talented people and many masters."

"But one night, during the Ghost Festival, everyone in the villa died inexplicably."

"It wasn't until the smell of corpses spread for several miles that someone noticed something was wrong. After going in to check, they were almost frightened out of their minds by the scene inside and immediately came to report the matter."

"Officials at the time characterized it as a vendetta. Now it seems that there may be something fishy about what happened back then."

When Zuo Dao heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

On the occasion of the Ghost Festival, all the martial arts masters in the villa died unexpectedly. Isn't this the work of evil spirits?

It seems that this Zhengqi Villa should be the first evil murder case in Youzhou.

He glanced at Li Yuan beside him and said, "You lead the way, and I'll go to Zhengqi Villa to take a look."

When Li Yuan heard this, he immediately responded excitedly, and then walked at the front to lead the way.

When Du Wanshan saw this, he also wanted to move forward together.

But just as he took a step forward, he was stopped by Zuo Dao: "Du Qianhu, could you please go back to the Jinyiwei Yamen to guard the place? Linya City has just experienced an undercurrent, and some people may not want to live in peace."

When Du Wanshan heard the words, he could only respond, and then led the people back towards Linya City.

He also knew that Linya City seemed peaceful now, and officials of all sizes were avoiding them like snakes and scorpions.

But there are many people who have connections with Fan Quan and are now trying to figure out how to solve this matter.

It is impossible to cause any trouble in the city.

on the trail.

Li Yuan walked at the front, showing off his family's tracking method.

He was originally the son of a hunter near Linya City. When Jin Yiwei first entered Youzhou, his father worked for Jin Yiwei.

At that time, he was also commended by Jin Yiwei and was awarded an introductory skill.

So he can be considered innocent.

When this person was young, he determined to become a Jinyiwei. After more than ten years of practice, he was admitted, and then he was recruited.

This person used his own method of tracing family heirlooms to do a lot of things for the Jinyiwei Yamen.

He led people to surround Fan Quan and his family and arrested them.

Soon, everyone reached the end of the path.

At the end was the exit of the mountain forest, close to an official road, and they followed Li Yuan forward.

We arrived on a suburban slope.

Li Yuan pointed to the dilapidated villa in the distance and said, "Sir, that was the former Zhengqi Villa. According to the clues left by the giant corpse, we were heading towards Zhengqi Villa."

Hearing this, Zuo Dao nodded and said, "The place is here, why don't you go back to Linya City too?"

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "I would like to accompany you to the Zhengqi Villa to investigate."

Zuo Dao glanced at Li Yuan and said, "You have never been to Zhengqi Villa. The extra person is just an extra burden."

Zhao Hu has good skills in the later stage of the day after tomorrow, so following him can prevent unexpected events.

At least he won't die in there without a little vigilance.

But Li Yuanke, who had just entered the acquired realm, was different. He was too weak. After entering, I was afraid that I would have to distract myself from taking care of him.

When Li Yuan heard this, he immediately said: "In addition to tracking, I am also very proficient in finding things. Please allow me to go with you." Zuo Dao heard this and said expressionlessly: "Since you insist on going , then follow behind and be careful."

Li Yuan's face suddenly showed a hint of joy and he said, "Thank you, sir."

Zhao Hu grinned and said: "Little guy, when you see the giant corpse, don't be so scared that you pee your pants."

He recalled the first time he saw the giant corpse in prison.

If he hadn't been so passionate and courageous at that time, I'm afraid he would still be a little frightened.

Not to mention this young guy.

Li Yuan said: "Zhao Baihu, don't underestimate Beizhi. Although Beizhi is young, he has seen a lot and has never been afraid."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hu smiled and patted Li Yuan on the shoulder.

The three of them came to Zhengqi Villa together.

Zuo Dao looked at the Zhengqi Villa in front of him. It was better than the one he saw in his previous life, at least it was not completely decayed.

But there were cobwebs condensing everywhere, and there was a faint smell of decay in the air.

Zuo Dao jumped up, came to the rafters, raised his hand, cut his palm, and swung it in all directions.

Drops of blood, blessed by the true essence, fell everywhere in Zhengqi Villa.

This giant corpse is extremely sensitive to the smell of blood, and most of the time it hides in the villa to rest during the day.

Instead of entering the villa looking for it like a headless fly.

It's better to draw it out.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Hu quickly took Li Yuan and hid in a corner.

a long time passed.

There was still no movement in the villa, and it still looked lifeless, without any trace of life.

Zuo Dao frowned slightly and said, "Did the giant corpse leave Zhengqi Villa?"

He jumped down from the roof and said to the two of them, "Go in and take a look."

After hearing this, Zhao Hu took Li Yuan out.

Li Yuan followed the traces of the giant corpse all the way to a backyard of the villa, and then stopped in front of the backyard door.

He looked back at Zuo Dao and said, "Sir, there are the most traces of giant corpses here. I think the giant corpses should come here from time to time."

Hearing this, Zuo Dao nodded slightly, and then walked directly in.

This place looks like the daily residence of the owner of Zhengqi Villa. Although it is old, you can still see the extraordinaryness in it.

In a room similar to a study, Zuo Dao also saw the jet-black wooden figure that the village elder mentioned.

It is now placed on the desk.

Just as the village elder said, this wooden man is completely black, his face seems a bit ferocious, and he looks a bit scary.

But in Zuo Dao's eyes, this thing was a little unusual.

Category: locust wood puppet
Attributes: The most yin objects in the world can be attached to the soul and lead the souls from the underworld into the world.

The moment he saw the attributes, Zuo Dao couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

Now maybe he understands why this giant corpse ran for dozens of miles to kill people and get this thing.

If this giant corpse is really created by the subordinates of the old demon from Montenegro.

Then it wants this locust wood puppet, presumably to attract the souls of the underworld. Could it be that this is the key for the old Black Mountain demon to break free from its bonds?
But if this is the case, what about his clone in the world of Black Mountain?
