Absurd deduction game

clatter.

A porcelain cup with a corner cut off was filled with water and placed in front of Zhao Yijiao.

He sat next to the wooden table, with one hand on the table and the other playing with the small amulet that had just enabled him to break through the fog.

After being pulled into the house just now, the old man told him the reason for the layout of the backyard.

Probably because he broke into the backyard without permission and saw a lot of "secrets", the old man was no longer as confused as when he first appeared. Not only did he reveal his identity as a "corpse chaser", but he also revealed the weirdness of Yizhuang.

The old man is a corpse hunter in the southern Xiangxi area.

He would never set foot in Guolongling in the north in his life. He didn't come when he was young. When he got old, he just wanted to rest at home. Unexpectedly, a letter came from an old friend in his youth, asking him to come to Longling. Fengtou Town, do me a favor.

The son of an old friend worked as a boatman on the Yejiang River. He had been doing well for more than 20 years. But one night just half a month ago, the boat suddenly capsized.

The strange thing is that less than half of the boatmen, who usually have excellent water skills, failed to come out of the water. I heard that there were water ghosts in the water, dragging people away and not letting them go.

Most of the remaining ones swam ashore frantically and called for help. The group of people fished in the dark for a long time and kept going down the river, but saw no one or any bodies.

When daybreak, someone actually found more than twenty floating corpses floating on the water upstream. Some were boatmen, and the rest were guests on the boat at that time.

The son of the old man's old friend was also among them. The old friend was heartbroken and could not afford to fall ill. What was even more frightening was that after the corpses were salvaged ashore, they would take advantage of the darkness of night and quietly gather them on the bank of the night river.

Some of the people on the boat were outsiders, and their bodies had not been claimed for the time being. They were piled up in sheds built outside the town. The local bodies had long been taken away by their families, but no matter where they were placed, they were always there. They will spontaneously gather at night, indicating that they are about to enter the river again.

The officials in the town invited powerful people to solve the problem with great effort. All the local corpses were quickly buried, leaving the corpses from other places. The old friend wanted the old man to take them home.

In the letter, an old friend cried and complained that although his son also died in the disaster, he knew that his son, a boatman, would inevitably bear the responsibility for the disaster. His son had already been buried, and he just wanted to help other bodies that could not be buried. He returned home to alleviate his son's sins after he went underground.

The old man's life was saved by an old friend when he was young, so he had to help even if he didn't want to.

So he ignored his children's dissuasion, came to Longling alone, and set off with the remaining dozen corpses.

Based on the trajectory of the overturned boat, he judged that these corpses should all belong to Wangshan City on the edge of Fengtou Town. Although there was an official connection between the two, the corpses had to be driven away from the living, so he chose to leave. mountain road.

Ye Shui Yizhuang is a resting place set up on the mountain. It is unknown who built it and there is no owner to take care of it. It is already quite old.

The old man often came across Yizhuang when driving corpses in that area of ​​western Hunan. It was a convenience for the corpse drivers, but he never expected that there was such a building in the mountains of Longling.

He drove the body into Yizhuang, and strange things happened again.

At this point, the old man sighed, feeling quite regretful.

He said that as soon as he came in, he felt that something was wrong in Yizhuang. People who drove corpses all year round were the most sensitive to corpse aura. The village was filled with the aura of death that had not been alive for a long time, especially in the backyard. The layout of each house formed a When a corpse enters the trapped formation, it is easy to be invaded by evil spirits and turn the corpse into a ghost.

But the bone bell array on it is also used to suppress ghosts. It seems that the people who were initially anxious in Yizhuang may have wanted to trap someone here and then wanted that person's soul to turn into a ghost and wander around again forever. Not allowed to leave.

Extremely damaging.

It was too late for the old man to understand this. The corpse he brought was affected by the death energy and could not leave the Yizhuang area at all. He himself was regarded as a corpse by Yizhuang because he had been dealing with corpses all year round. No matter how many times he walked out after pushing the door open. It's far away, and it will circle back to the original place in less than half an hour.

The old man could only live in Yizhuang temporarily.

In the backyard, the soul that was once trapped and imprisoned here became a "white ghost" and would come out and wander around from time to time. When it came out, the bell would ring.

The old man didn't dare to confront it, so he could only take advantage of the time when the white ghost didn't come out, and then put the corpses in place, and then think of a way to break the situation.

This thought is a week.

On the second day, the old man discovered that the backyard was really inaccessible. He stayed in the backyard for one night, and it turned out to be dark, which frightened him.

And he actually couldn't even get out of the backyard. He could only push the door open and walk to the entrance of Yizhuang. He stayed there for a while and then had to go back immediately.

Otherwise, he would feel like he couldn't breathe and was about to die.

The corpses were not rotten, they were still the same as when they came in.

Tonight, the people who suddenly came to Yizhuang were the group of people who came by the moonlight.

The old man suddenly felt hope. During this period of time, he had figured out that the corpse contained resentment and would become like a "white ghost" after a long time. If the grievances are resolved, maybe he can be taken out, and if there is no body in Yi Zhuang, maybe it will be dawn.

The most intuitive way to resolve grievances is to bury the body in the grave. Let’s not talk about where to bury the body now. We must first bury it in the coffin and see if it works.

In order to prevent these new arrivals from being affected by the backyard formation, the old man locked the backyard door.

This is the reason why the old man is in Yizhuang.

In the room, after the old man finished speaking, he hunched his back and sighed. He looked at Zhao Yijiu and accused the younger generation of being unruly and climbing over the courtyard wall casually. In the end, he almost lost his life. Maybe he would have to fight with an old man like him. Bones can't live without the backyard.

Zhao Yijiu went in one ear and out the other, not taking it seriously at all.

Seeing that he was disobedient, the old man stopped talking and rested silently on the chair.

It is conceivable that the old man did not hear the commotion in the front yard about the fake corpse, otherwise he would not be so comfortable at this moment.

Only Yu Xing, after pouring a glass of water for Zhao Yijiu, looked him up and down, and then curled his lips: "Don't you want to ask me what happened in the middle? Are you so tolerant?"

If it was okay at other times, Guijiu's look was obviously waiting for him to take the initiative to explain.

After all, no matter who it is, they will be very annoyed if they chase their teammates all the way without seeing any shadow.

Zhao Yijiu chuckled and raised the corners of his lips, then suddenly dropped the bell he picked up on the ground. His words were thorny: "I think you have some secrets, so you have to keep it secret."

"After all, this old man stayed here for a week before, and the white ghost didn't drop any bells when he came out. And if you bring that white jade coffin to the backyard, the bone bell array will soon be unstoppable."

"I've seen this amulet of yours, it's just in your baggage - yes, I did flip through your baggage when you weren't paying attention. In short, you brought the amulet in advance that can protect yourself in the fog. How to explain this?"

"After you disappeared, the Saint and I immediately caught up with you. We didn't see you all the way. We thought something had happened to you, but I didn't expect you to be fine."

"I said, you are not responsible for all this, right?"

Inugami's question is well-founded, and the danger caused by the falling bell is also real.

The two looked at each other and seemed to be about to start a fight.

The old man looked at them and advised: "Don't be impulsive. If you have anything to say, please don't say it..."

"I just saved you." Yu Xing didn't give me a chance to speak at all. He laughed horribly, and all the violence in his body came to the surface. He stepped on the bell on the ground and smashed it. "Thank you for saving me. First say that I am the culprit?”

"Did I make a mistake?" Zhao Yijiu turned his wrist and his bones made a clear sound.

Yu Xing grabbed his animal bone chain and dragged him outside. There was still fog outside, but the old man had just ordered three absolutely safe houses, one of which was right next to this one: "Go out and fight with me. Watch me." I won’t tear your mouth apart.”

Two violent and impulsive people just entered another room, and there may be nothing they can do.
