Mysterious country

"Have you gone to see it?"

Xia Tianqi had no intention of sleeping anymore. If Leng Yue really heard the scream just now, it means that the ghost was in this restaurant just now.

"I was waiting for you to come back, so I didn't look."

Leng Yue's words surprised Xia Qi, because in the past, Leng Yue could be said to be the most positive when it came to this kind of thing, but now she stayed in the room and did not move. It was obvious that she was no longer as focused on being a lone ranger as before. .

"When did it happen? Let's go over now and see."

"About 5 minutes ago."

Hearing Leng Yue's answer, Xia Qi nodded symbolically, then touched the various magic potions on his body, and walked out of the room with Leng Yue one after another.

After that, they came to the door of the third room on the left.

"It should be this one."

After Leng Yue finished speaking, Xia Qi directly opened the door of the room. The room was eerily silent, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.

Xia Qi frowned and stepped in first, but as soon as he entered, he saw a lifeless body on the bed.

The corpse was that of a man, who looked to be in his 40s. His body was lying flat on the bed, with a long cut on his throat. There was a large amount of blood on the wall and on the body.

It looked like the man had his throat cut directly with a knife or other sharp instrument while he was asleep.

"This is the only room."

Xia Qi probably glanced at the room. Because the area was limited, it was impossible to hide other people.

"Well, I didn't hear anyone coming downstairs or running away."

Leng Yue also began to search the room at this time, and then his eyes stopped on a large suitcase placed under the window sill.

There was a pool of blood seeping out from under the suitcase. From the distance, it didn't look like it belonged to the body on the bed, but more like it was seeping from inside the suitcase.

Leng Yue walked straight to the suitcase and then tried to push it, only to find that the suitcase was unusually heavy.

"There's something in this box."

Leng Yue turned her head and reminded Xia Qi.

Waiting for Xia Qi to come over quickly, Leng Yue had already unzipped the suitcase. As a result, the suitcase had just been opened a little, and some broken limbs and meat fell out.

There is no doubt that this box also contains a corpse, and it is an incomplete corpse.

Leng Yue did not intend to open the box completely and stopped at this time, but Xia Qi seemed to have thought of something and reminded:

"Open them all and take a look. I want to know whether the body inside is male or female."

Leng Yue didn't ask anything. This time she completely unzipped the suitcase, then put the suitcase down and opened it.

Xia Qi walked closer and took a look inside the box, and saw a female head divided into four pieces, crowded among a pile of corpses.

Leng Yue saw Xia Qi looking at the bloody corpses in the box with a thoughtful look, and couldn't help but ask:

"What did you find?"

“When I was eating downstairs, I saw a report saying that murders have been happening in Fengyuan City recently.

The protagonists of the incident were all husband and wife. Either the husband killed his wife, or the wife killed her husband.

So I'm wondering if the ghost this time has a special habit of choosing the target to kill.

For example, do you focus on couples or couples? "

Speaking of this, Xia Xia Qi asked Leng Yue in turn:

"Leng Shen, do you know any ghosts who specifically pick out lovers or couples?"

"No." Leng Yue shook her head after hearing this, but she was still trying to remember something:

"Generally speaking, the killing of ghosts is completely instinctive. Even if a ghost has sanity, the wisdom it displays is only to kill people and to avoid being chased by people who are stronger than it.

There is no such thing as deliberately choosing a target to kill. "

"Then there are no special circumstances?" Xia Qi hoped in his heart that his guess was correct, because in this case, the situation between him and Leng Yue would become relatively safe.

“Special ghosts actually exist, such as ghosts.

The currently known classifications of ghosts, from weakest to strongest, are ghosts, ghosts, fierce ghosts, evil ghosts, and finally the ghost king.

As for whether there are more powerful ghosts above the Ghost King, since my master doesn't know, I'm not sure.

Among the types of ghosts, ghosts are the most special kind of existence.

Because strictly speaking, it cannot be included in the category of ghosts. "

"You want to say that ghosts are actually ghosts formed by human beings' obsession with death, right?"

Xia Qi had carefully read the notebook that Leng Yue had given him, and knew that ghosts were, strictly speaking, different from those that only knew how to kill people.

"Well, it can be said that because ghosts are mostly the result of human obsessions that persist after death and do not have very powerful abilities, they are the weakest category.

There is almost no possibility of advancement.

But in this second domain event, the lowest level of ghost is an evil spirit, so what we have to face will definitely not be a ghost. "

Xia Qi heard what Leng Yue meant very clearly. To put it bluntly, it looked like a ghost with deep resentment during its lifetime, but it was almost impossible for the ghost to get the evil target according to the ghost's method. The level of ghost is so difficult for Leng Yue to determine.

"Maybe I guessed wrong. The person the ghost killed before was just a coincidence. After all, there are not many adult men and women today who don't have lovers."

Xia Qi was not very sure about his guess, so he said something uncertain at this time.

"Although I'm not sure, I think your guess is correct.

It turns out that humans can mutate, so it is not ruled out that ghosts will not mutate.

Perhaps, the evil spirit in this incident was an advanced ghost.

That's why it selectively chooses the targets to kill, thereby venting the resentment it accumulated during its lifetime. "

Hearing that Leng Yue still agreed with his conjecture, Xia Qi also smiled, and then said nonchalantly:

"We now have a rough understanding of the ghost in our hearts. The area of ​​Castle William is astonishingly large. Even if it kills without a target, it may not be able to pick us out within 12 hours. Wait until our abilities are frozen. After the period has passed, no matter what the hell it is, it still needs to be dealt with."

Leng Yue nodded noncommittally, and then said to Xia Qi Wen a little abruptly:

"Then shall we continue to stay here, or shall we go out for a walk?"

"Why do you ask that?" Xia Qi was a little confused by Leng Yue's question.

"Nothing." Leng Yue shook her head and did not explain the reason.
