The eldest lady has no taboos in what she does

After eating, Gu Ming'an went to Gu Mengyin's yard.

The wedding is coming soon, and normally it is really hard for a bride to go out again, but Gu Mengyin is different from ordinary women, and the Gu family will not deliberately stop her actions.

"Auntie."

Gu Mengyin was having snacks after dinner, and she was a little curious when she saw Gu Ming'an coming, "Back from the office?"

"Yes, I shouldn't have disturbed my aunt at this time, but I encountered a strange case today, so I had to come and ask my aunt for advice."

"Okay, tell me what's going on."

Gu Ming'an told what happened today again, but when telling Gu Mengyin, he went into some details in more detail to avoid missing anything.

"Why I feel strange is that I didn't find many other people's footprints around the coffin, or signs of digging outwards."

As a thief, if you want to steal the corpses or property inside, you can't do it alone. At least two or three people are required to go up, and you have to dig graves. It takes a long time to do these things. time.

"Assuming this was the work of thieves, it must have been a huge gang. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for three or five people to dig out so many graves and steal so many bodies in just a few hours."

Gu Mengyin nodded upon hearing this, expressing her agreement with what he said.

"And I didn't find any traces of excavation around the tomb. Those footsteps were basically left by the villagers when they went to check. This is very strange. There is also a tomb with only one hole, and the coffin board is only half lifted. It’s just, it looks like the corpse inside crawled out from underneath.”

After listening to what he said, Gu Mengyin could already imagine what was going on at the scene.

"I know, let's go take a look tonight."

Gu Ming'an was stunned for a moment, is he so action-oriented?
Gu Mengyin glanced at him, "According to what you said, those corpses crawled out last night, but no injuries have occurred yet. But you can't be sure whether they will hurt people, so find out what happened as soon as possible." Things are very necessary.”

"What my aunt said is that I will go get ready right now and I will leave the city with my aunt in a while."

"Go."

After Gu Mengyin finished all the snacks on the table, Gu Ming'an sent someone to say it was time to leave.

Gu Ming'an was an official of Jing Zhaoyin and was qualified to go out of the city to handle cases in the middle of the night, so the two of them left the city gate smoothly.

It was so quiet in the outer city late at night that the only sound left in my ears was the sound of wheels grinding on the road.

Gu Mengyin leaned on the carriage and closed her eyes to rest.

I don’t know how long we walked, but the carriage finally stopped.

Gu Ming'an's voice sounded outside the car.

"Auntie, we're here."

Gu Mengyin opened her eyes and jumped out of the carriage, lighting the talisman to illuminate the road ahead.

Gu Ming'an parked the carriage outside the village, and the two planned to walk in.

After what happened last night, before it got dark, the people in the village closed the courtyard doors tightly and couldn't go out.

"Take me directly to the cemetery."

"Yes."

The two of them walked to the graveyard at the end of the village.

As soon as they approached, they heard a slight movement in the woods behind the tomb.

Gu Mengyin quickly put out the lighting fire and took Gu Ming'an to hide in a hidden place.

After a while, figures with strange shapes walked out from the depths of the forest.

Gu Mengyin raised her head and looked at the moon in the sky. By coincidence, it was just the right time.

The silver moonlight illuminated the tattered figures.

Gu Ming'an looked at those figures and was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out. Even though he had seen a lot of the world with Gu Mengyin, he was so frightened by the scene in front of him that he covered his mouth and did not dare to make a sound. . Who were those people? They were clearly dead and rotten corpses. Some of them were almost broken into bones. Their faces were half-stretched and their eyes were hanging on their faces. Not to mention how scary they were.

After they walked out of the forest, they walked to a place that was most illuminated by the moonlight, and then they knelt on the ground, as if praying devoutly.

Gu Ming'an saw them lying motionless on the ground and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Auntie, what are they doing?"

Gu Mengyin frowned, "Absorb the essence of heaven and earth to increase your own magic power."

"He, are they all ghosts? Are they resentful ghosts?"

Gu Mengyin shook her head. She did not see the ghosts of injustice in these people.

At this point, a trace of demonic energy was found on them.

Gu Mengyin did not act rashly, but waited quietly in the dark.

I don't know how long it took, but when Gu Ming'an felt that his buttocks were numb, the corpses suddenly stood up and returned the way they came.

"Follow up and have a look."

Gu Mengyin gave Gu Ming'an a talisman to hide his aura and followed the corpses.

The two followed them into the mountains and found that they had all hid in a cave.

When they wanted to continue approaching the cave, they were forced back by the demonic energy outside the cave.

Gu Mengyin did not break in by force, but took Gu Ming'an out of the village first.

After leaving the village, Gu Ming'an still had lingering fears.

The scene that just happened had such a huge impact on him that he still can't recover even now.

"Auntie, what are those things and what do they want to do?"

Gu Mengyin's brows were tightened. Because the demon world has been sealed for thousands of years, they didn't have much practice in dealing with demons, or they didn't have enough practical experience, so she didn't act rashly. After all, it was too far away from the village. It would be bad if the villagers were hurt.

"Those corpses are not innocent ghosts, but were invaded by demonic energy. They probably want to use those corpses to rebuild their magic power in order to transform."

"Auntie is saying that they want to transform into human form?"

Gu Mengyin nodded. Demons and monsters are different. If they truly transformed into human form, they would be integrated with their true bodies. People with insufficient moral skills would not be able to discover them.

After returning to Gu's house, Gu Mengyin asked Gu Minghan to go back to sleep and she would find a way to solve the problem.

Gu Ming'an responded and went back to his room.

Gu Mengyin dug Jingchen out of his sleep.

"I found a lot of demonic energy again tonight."

"Senior brother, have you forgotten how the emperor almost died?"

Jingchen was now completely energetic.

"Where did you find it, and under what circumstances."

Gu Mengyin told Jingchen what happened in the village.

"You are saying that the demonic energy entered the corpse and used the corpse to practice."

Gu Mengyin nodded. The corpse's yin energy was very strong, which was more conducive for them to absorb the essence of the moon.

"What I want to figure out most now is where this evil energy comes from."

The demon world has long been sealed, and all the monsters have been suppressed within the barrier and cannot come out at all. But now that demonic energy has reached the human world, there must be something wrong.

Jingchen suddenly said: "Is there something wrong with the seal of the demon world?" (End of this chapter)
