After noon, Master Shen went to the courtyard, looked cautious, and asked with a smile: "Master Tang, I don't know how things are progressing?" Tang Zhou looked at him and said in deep thought, "There is progress, but..."

Master Shen immediately said seriously: "Just what?"

Tang Zhou knew that he had already felt a little clue, but he felt like he was always led away. He couldn't always observe in secret, and the guesses he got, no matter how rounded it was, he still guessed. "I felt that the grievances in the southwest corner were the heaviest, so I followed the past, and found that there were bones under the haystack, which were buried very shallowly, and it seemed that they hadn't been buried for a long time." He slowly said. His face changed drastically, his lips murmured, and he stopped talking.

Tang Zhou smiled slightly: "Naturally, I'm just a celestial master, not a quick catcher, and I don't want to investigate what this is all about. But Master Shen, you don't want to be accompanied by a resentful spirit?"

Master Shen's face was pale, and he said for a long time: "This matter actually starts with the old man's wife. The old man's wife is from the Yi ethnic group. According to the custom over there, people are buried after they die."

When Tang Zhou heard him speak, it was irrelevant, even more inexplicable, but he still listened patiently. Yan Dan had already turned around and went back to the guest room, but he turned back when he said this. I only heard Master Shen continue to say: "The Zhuojing family has some status among the Yi people. Many of the Yi people with status are familiar with witchcraft. When she first married into the Shen family, she told me that she was the only one in the family who knew no witchcraft. People with Gu art, so the elders in the family did not oppose me to marry her to get started."

"After Zhuo Jing married into the Shen family, he was homesick, so I planned to move to the Yi people. There, I saw a bone burial. At that time, the patriarch had just passed away, and his children and grandchildren directly took his body. Buried in the ground behind the house, only a shallow pit was dug, and it was poured on the soil with boiling water every day. It was the first time I saw it. It was horrified and inexplicable, and we in the Central Plains would definitely buy a thick wooden coffin and then enter the soil."

The more Tang Zhou heard it, the more inexplicable he could only say: "The customs of Han and Yi are mostly very different."

"In this way, some boiling water was poured every day. After two or three months, the corpse rotted. After the boiling water was poured, the flesh and bones separated. The Yi people dug up the pit where the corpse was buried, took the bones out, and buried them in a jar. Go up to the mountain. It is said that the bones left by the Yi people who raise witch Gu also contain Gu worms. This method prevents the Gu from running out." Master Shen sighed, "As long as you have seen such a scene once. , I won’t forget. After Zhuo Jing passed away, I brought my little girl to Qingshi Town. At that time, Yijun was already sensible and started to take care of the family. Seeing her so capable, I went out for business with confidence."

Yan Dan suddenly asked, "How many years have you moved here?"

"It's been seven or eight years. Yijun and Xiangjun are 24 years old this year, but unfortunately they haven't found a good family to marry." He paused, and then said, "I went to Southern Capital once for business. I went home only a few months ago. After I came back, I felt that Yijun and the day were a little different. The two have seen her laugh today, it seems a bit weird. I feel uneasy, and I don’t sleep well at night, as a result I went to the ledgers in the middle of the night and wanted to read the unfinished accounts. When I walked through the courtyard, I saw Yijun burying something there with a flower hoe. I thought I hadn’t seen it, but I felt more and more disturbed. I couldn't see the accounts, so I had to go back to the courtyard and open up the soil where she buried her things. As a result—"Master Shen suddenly covered his face with his hands, very painful: "I saw a corpse. The dead body of the corpse was ugly. The flesh and blood on the body had been dried up, as if the whole body had been drained. The face was purple, the eyes were round, and the flesh was almost sticking to the bones... I understood at that time, Zhu Jing I used to say that I didn't understand the witchcraft art, it was all lie to me. Yijun would behave like these evil ways!"

Yan Dan thoughtfully: "In other words, the reason why the bone we found in the haystack was buried so shallowly, was that it was only waiting for it to rot so much that only bones were left, and then bury it again by picking up bones?"

Master Shen nodded silently, and then continued for a long time: "After that, people in Qingshi Town began to die strangely and violently at intervals. Everyone said that it was the evil spirits of the empress who were harming people. But I know that's not the case. They... are all being vicious. The witchcraft technique drained the blood. I knew it in my heart, but Yijun is my daughter after all, so naturally I can’t talk more about it. Just because there are too many people who died tragically for no reason, I still feel uneasy in my heart, so I find someone to do something. To exorcise evil, many people were invited, many of them were very famous celestial masters, and most of them left without saying goodbye. I guess many of them are already buried in the ground."

Tang Zhou gave a light cough and said lightly: "Master Shen, you are just guessing about this, and there is no real evidence. Please be at ease, I will not say it."

Master Shen buried his face in his hands and nodded, "Thank you, Master Tang."

Yan Dan watched his back disappear, supporting it with one hand: "This story sounds quite interesting."

Tang Zhou squinted at her, "You don't believe it?"

Yan Dan turned his head and smiled slightly and said, "I know that the Yi people do collect bones, but this witchcraft technique is too mysterious. So I believe it halfway for now."

Tang Zhou said coldly: "I don't believe a word."

Yan Dan was surprised: "Really, I think some of his words are true. For example, he said that his wife is from the Yi ethnic group. I think he must have been in the southwest for quite a while, otherwise he wouldn't know about bone gathering. Yes. He said that the people in Qingshi Town died bizarrely. They weren't the ghosts of the empress. I believe that. Miss Shen Jia is from the Yi nationality, and it should be true."

"Apart from these, there is nothing important to be sure about."

Yan Dan smiled very cutely: "You are helping Miss Shen, in fact, I don't mind having another sister-in-law."

Tang Zhou looked at her for a while, with no expression on his face: "In fact, I have always felt that it is a pity that you haven't blocked all your demon powers. Now it seems that you think so too."

How true is what Mr. Shen said? What is his purpose for saying this? Are there more unknown stories in this sinking house?

I'm afraid this can't be understood for a while.

Tang Zhou felt that everything in front of him seemed to be covered with a mist. When he made a little progress, things would move in a more convoluted direction. And Yan Dan seems to have completely ignored these. Whenever he is free, he sits by the lotus pond and feeds the fish, often staying by the pond for half a day. He sometimes wondered if Yan Dan was really able to understand the language of fish as she said. As soon as this idea came out, it was immediately rejected. Yan Dan still had restrictions on his body, he couldn't leave the Shen Mansion every step of the way, and even the demon method was restrained. There was no way to pretend to be a ghost. Before, he didn't pay attention to the little bit of demon technique of this lotus spirit, and now it is far from him. It's just that he also has to admit that Yan Dan sometimes sees things with unique insights, and when he speaks it seems to be true and false. He can't believe it completely but he can't believe it at all.

Some of the demons are cunning and simple, but generally speaking, they are not very familiar with the world. However, Yan Dan is very familiar with mortal people. She inquired about his experience of mentoring, and she wanted to find his weakness. In the cemetery, she initially expected that the mechanism of the Broken Dragon Stone would be opened, but deliberately kept silent until they were trapped, and did not come to negotiate terms with him. Yan Dan did not directly ask him to let him go, but asked about the whereabouts of his companions, which was also a very smart choice. He will not refuse this request, and there is no need to refuse. After all, after making an exception, it is inevitable that he will feel soft in the future, so he makes another exception. What's more, when she asked this, she seemed even more informed and reasonable, making him slowly stop guarding.

Tang Zhou couldn't help but sighed. In any case, he was indeed not so hostile to her now.

As he walked, he went to the East Chamber that he had visited that night. In front of the guest room, Ling Xuzi was sitting on the steps with a crumpled piece of paper on his lap, watching attentively. In this situation, he didn't seem to be horrified. Tang Zhou walked two steps closer, only to see that the other party's hand holding the piece of paper shook slightly, and there were blue veins floating on the back of his hand, but he did not raise his head, staring blankly at the words on the paper.

Seeing his small movements, Tang Zhou felt more certain in his heart. He didn't think about it, but now that he thinks about it, he realizes that there is something wrong. After all, Ling Xuzi could be regarded as a master of a generation, and his experience and knowledge were much higher than his own. He was able to escape safely from the ancient tomb, but how could Ling Xuzi pretend to be crazy and wait for an opportunity to escape? After all, no one is too wary of a madman. When he walked closer, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the top four characters on the rice paper: Qi Yao Shen Jade from the corner of his eyes. He felt inexplicably that there should be some connection between this and what he had been looking for for a long time.

Seeing Ling Xuzi suddenly jumped up, beat his chest and feet, crumpled the piece of rice paper in his hand into a ball, and desperately stuffed it into his mouth. Tang Zhou took a step forward, and suddenly stopped again, looking at each other quietly, "Senior, why do you need to put it on anymore?" There may be everything he wants to know on that rice paper, but he wants to rely on his own. Skills slowly found out.

Ling Xuzi looked at him with a smile, and kept saying: "Why do you want to pretend? I think how long can you pretend?" After that, he cried and laughed again.

"You are so old, can you cry and make a lot of noise, are you ashamed?" Hearing only a clear voice, Shen Xiangjun touched the parrot on his shoulder, and grinned. She pulled Tang Zhou's sleeves, raised her head and smiled purely: "I know you will not bully him, he must bully you, and he will rely on you."

Tang Zhou looked at her bright and pure eyes with a faint pity in his heart. In this sinking house, I am afraid that only she is innocent. He smiled slightly and said softly: "How do you know?"

Shen Xiangjun turned his head and thought for a while, then looked at him: "Sister said that this person is crazy, and I am stupid, and they happen to be a couple. Only you will not say that I am stupid, you are a good person."

Tang Zhou raised his hand and pressed it on her shoulder, with a gentle voice: "Why are you stupid?"

Shen Xiangjun tilted his head and put his cheek close to the back of his hand: "Can you accompany me to the backyard? It's a good place. Not many people know, you will find it novel."

It was an abandoned well. The edge of the well was covered with moss. The mouth of the well was very narrow, just enough to fit two people. The water level was already very low, and a turquoise green could be seen underneath.

Shen Xiangjun lay on the side of the well, poking his head down: "Daddy said, from this well we can see the past and present. Only me and Daddy know this, not even my sister."

Tang Zhou stood on one side with his hands held down, disapproving in his heart. I saw Shen Xiangjun suddenly turning around and gently pulling his sleeves: "You too, come and see." Tang Zhou laughed, and had to walk to the well, and saw the deep water in the well, which seemed to be cold. The figure of him and Shen Xiangjun standing side by side was reflected in the water, slightly distorted.

"Have you seen it? My previous life was a bird with a gray feather and a sharp beak, so I can understand what the bird says now." Shen Xiangjun smiled and said, "Sometimes, you look at the water from the well. The figure smiles at you, but you don't smile. This is auspicious sign."

Tang Zhou glanced at her and saw that her eyes were crystal clear, and there was a slight ripple. He lowered his head and looked down the well, and saw that the water wave moved slightly. The figure standing next to Shen Xiangjun in the water suddenly changed, and a bright red color slowly flowed down from the corner of his eyes, but the look of that figure remained unchanged. Tang Zhou paused. Could that figure be a sign of his future?

In his opinion, these were just nonsense.

He closed his eyes and looked down again, but he didn't see the sight of Shiizai again. Could it be that what you saw just now was just his illusion?

Suddenly hearing the slight sound of footsteps behind him, he turned his head and saw Yan Dan's breath undecided, standing seven or eight steps away from them. She took a sigh of relief, her eyes full of brilliance, and a smile: "It's such a coincidence, I also walked out casually, but as a result, I walked with you."

When she spoke, she looked sincere and didn't hesitate. Tang Zhou knew she was talking nonsense without even thinking about it, let alone how she would go to the remote backyard for no reason, just because of the coincidence that happened with them there was a problem.

Yan Dan raised his hand and touched the green silk on his dangling shoulders, and then raised his wrist: "Brother, are you worried that I will run into a ghost? You see, I have brought the evil spirits tokens you gave me, and nothing will happen. ."

Tang Zhou nodded: "It's okay." This evil token is the first to ward off the evil of this lotus essence. However, she is now carrying this restriction, and even a little water wave can't be stirred up, so he won't care about it at all. He asked tentatively: "Do you have a time when you are making mistakes?"

Yan Dan smiled proudly: "I always rely on my own true talents to learn, how can I have an illusion?"

After returning to the guest room, the sky was already dark. Tang Zhou used dinner, thinking about what he saw and heard today, and found it even more incredible. Shen Xiangjun said that only she and Master Shen knew about this well, not even Shen Yijun; and after thinking about it for a long time, he felt that the **** figure in the corner of the eye he saw in the well was not an illusion. There must be something in it. He tidied up, put a dagger and fire fold in his sleeve, and turned back to the waste well in the backyard alone.

The night is deep tonight, most of the arc moon is covered by dark clouds, and the stars are sparse and dim.

Tang Zhouhuang brightened the fire, raised his hand to support on the edge of the well, and leaned forward. With the fire, everything in front of me is even clearer. He vaguely saw a white, dry face in the water, his eyes wide open, very terrible. Tang Zhou Yi was stunned, and suddenly heard a clear sound, and the edge of the well suddenly collapsed. Without support, he thumped and fell into the well water.

He is not good at watering. After falling into the water, he drank several sips of cold water, quickly stopped his breath, and slowly dived up against the well wall. The water in the well was icy cold, and it seemed to be cold. Now is the day when the weather is getting warmer. Soaking in the water feels bad.

Tang Zhou poked his head out of the water, just to face a face with pale skin and wrinkled skin. No matter how calm he was, he couldn't help being taken aback. He just reached out and touched the dagger in his sleeve, suddenly felt cold on his wrist, and the Buddha was caught by an iron ring. The shriveled and wrinkled cheek suddenly twitched, and it was already in front of him in the blink of an eye, his pale lips moved, and he spit out: "It's Wu Gu...Go, go!"
