Xia Jingsheng came to Xue's house with Yuan Chu, and was surprised by the nouveau riche's taste at first sight.

Xue Cheng couldn't wait to write "I'm rich" on the facade. The style of the whole house was neither neutral nor foreign.

Seeing Xia Jingsheng's indescribable expression, Yuan Chu raised his hand to tie the hair on his ear, trying to save her husband's face: "Ah Cheng said that the Fengshui layout of the house is very important."

Xia Jingsheng snorted and said, "Fengshui pays attention to the balance of yin and yang. This house is not qualified for this alone."

Onyx is inlaid on the outer wall of the house, like a burning flame, enough to burn the surrounding grass.

Xia Jingsheng took a look at the plants in the yard, sure enough they were all wilted.

He shook his head and pushed open the door of the house. Unlike the yang energy outside, the house was rather gloomy and cold.

Inside and outside can be described as ice and fire.

Among them, the master room has the heaviest Yin Qi.

Xia Jingsheng opened the door and went in. The bed inside was very wide, a large Western-style bed.

The quilt on the bed was washed slightly white, showing the hostess's thrifty housekeeping personality.

Next to the bed is a nanmu dressing table.

Xia Jingsheng glanced over, lingered on it for a moment, frowned and said, "Where's the jewelry in the makeup bag?"

Seeing the empty box, Yuan Chu was at a loss and said, "The jewelry inside...is gone."

This is Yuan Chu's few savings, she was reluctant to wear it once for a long time, but unexpectedly it disappeared.

"Impossible, it was put in the box!" Yuan Chu looked anxious.

Xia Jingsheng's face was solemn: "See if there are any other property stolen?"

Yuan Chu dug out the clothes at the bottom of the press box, found the place where the money was hidden, and touched it, his face turned pale instantly.

"Who is it? Who is it?!" Yuan Chu clenched his teeth, trying not to lose his composure.

"Be calm and don't be impatient." Xia Jingsheng reassured, "Wait until it gets dark."

At night, Xia Jingsheng lay sideways on the Western-style bed, listening carefully to the movement around him.

First, the temperature was getting lower and lower. Xia Jingsheng covered himself with a quilt suitable for late autumn, but he couldn't stop the bone-chilling chill at all.

Immediately afterwards, a baby's cry sounded from outside, just as Yuan Chu said, Xia Jingsheng heard a rustling sound behind him.

Yuan Chu described the sound as like mice scurrying around, but Xia Jingsheng could hear it, it was clearly the sound of looking for something.

Xia Jingsheng moved deliberately, and when the thing heard the noise, it immediately stopped moving.

As if surprised why Xia Jingsheng could still move, the thing slowly approached the side of the bed, looking at the person on the bed.

Xia Jingsheng suddenly opened his eyes, facing a pale and bloodless face.

"Xue Cheng?" Xia Jingsheng frowned and looked at the "person" in front of him.

In fact, there was a change in Xue Cheng's face. His lips were parted and fangs grew out. He could no longer be called a human.

As if he still had some impression of the name "Xue Cheng", the thing looked at Xia Jingsheng stiffly, turned his head mechanically, as if thinking.

After a while, a whistle suddenly sounded outside the window, with a certain rhythm.

When the thing heard the whistle, it acted as if it had received an order. It saw that he began to rummage through the box to find things, and the long nails scratched harshly on the door of the cabinet.

His actions were very rude, the winter clothes in the cabinet were scratched by sharp nails, and the cotton wool inside flew everywhere.

Finally, he found a copper plate among a pile of clothes, and immediately stuffed it into his waist like a treasure.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his head and looked at the porcelain flowerpot on the windowsill.

There were still plants planted in the flower pot, but the thing uprooted the plant without any explanation, and held the porcelain flower pot in its hands.

After finishing all this, he went to the bed again, stared at the person on the bed, and stared at Xia Jingsheng.

After a long time, he carefully knelt down in front of the bed, and just as his hands were about to touch Xia Jingsheng, they were tightly held.

"No, you can't hurt Mr. Xia!" Yuan Chu looked at the monster in front of him with tears streaming down his face.

When her hand touched the monster's skin, the palm of her hand felt like it was being burned, and it hurt heart-piercingly.

"Be careful!" Xia Jingsheng's reminder was a step too late, Yuan Chu's originally white palm turned pitch black.

That thing looked at Yuan Chu with a slightly confused expression on his face.

But when the whistle sounded again, he returned to the frozen state, and all the joys, sorrows and joys in the world seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Yuan Chu witnessed him walking out of the room stiffly, covered his face and burst into tears.

Xia Jingsheng didn't care about comforting Yuan Chu, he immediately followed that thing's footsteps.

On the street in the middle of the night, there was only a figure walking mechanically, bouncing and moving.

It was the time when there was no one around, suddenly, the thing stopped in its tracks, turned around, and looked at Xia Jingsheng bleakly.

Xia Jingsheng looked at him calmly.

That thing suddenly rushed over like crazy, opened its mouth, trying to pierce Xia Jingsheng's skin with its fangs.

Xia Jingsheng dodged quickly, pulled out the whip from his waist, and swung it at the thing.

That thing obviously couldn't resist the power of the snake-shaped whip, and green liquid flowed out from the place where it was wounded by the snake-shaped whip.

But that thing didn't seem to feel any pain, and rushed towards Xia Jingsheng relentlessly.

The whip in Xia Jingsheng's hand was extremely sharp, and he hit the thing's neck with one blow.

The thing was beaten to the side, but even so, he still attacked Xia Jingsheng.

Just at this moment, a whistle sounded from behind Xia Jingsheng.

A blinding light illuminates the dark street.

The thing was terrified of the light, and when the light hit its eyes, it immediately screamed.

It finally stopped fighting, and jumped forward in a panic.

Xia Jingsheng got into the car and shook Sun Wenxi's hand: "Why are you here?"

"The jade pendant you gave me is very hot." Sun Wenxi said.

The jade has always been fine, but tonight, when Sun Wenxi wore it next to her body, there was an indescribable burning sensation on her chest.

Xia Jingsheng's delay in returning made Sun Wenxi unable to settle down, so he set off for Xue's mansion.

When they arrived at the place, they came a step late, only to see Yuan Chu who was crying and almost fainted.

Sun Wenxi didn't dare to delay any longer, so he had no choice but to gamble his luck according to the guess in his heart, and drove after him.

Coincidentally, I ran into the scene where Xia Jingsheng confronted the monster.

Ever since he got acquainted with Xia Jingsheng, Sun Wenxi had long been immune to all strange things, so he calmly blew his horn to let Xia Jingsheng get into the car.

"Follow it." Xia Jingsheng said, "It won't go far, and the person who manipulates it will soon show its feet."

Sun Wenxi kept the headlights flashing, and the thing was terrified, jumping up and down trying to get out of the light beam.

After turning a street corner, Sun Wenxi frowned and said, "What about that thing?"

It stands to reason that it can't go far at all with its jumping like this.

Sun Wenxi's car speed was far faster than his walking speed, so he should be following closely, how could he lose track?

"Look around, it should be around here." Sun Wenxi cooperated with Xia Jingsheng, one was in charge of driving, and the other was in charge of searching around.

Suddenly, Xia Jingsheng shouted: "Stop!"

According to what Xia Jingsheng said, Sun Wenxi drove back to a mansion along the way he came from.

Seen from the outside, the mansion was pitch black, and there was nothing unusual about it.

What's more special is that there is a letter stuffed on the gate of the mansion.

Xia Jingsheng quickly got out of the car and took out the letter.

The address was written on the envelope, and it was sent from Guicheng.

"Is there something wrong with this letter?" Sun Wenxi asked suspiciously.

Xia Jingsheng looked at the thin letter paper and said with a sneer, "Just passing by here, I saw a postman delivering letters."

"What time?" Sun Wenxi asked in surprise.

Xia Jingsheng nodded and said, "There's no postman who would deliver a letter at this point, it's just a trick of that thing. I can be sure that that thing is in this mansion.

The two stepped forward and found that the door of the mansion was not closed, so they opened it with a push.

In the darkness, Xia Jingsheng noticed movement upstairs, he walked up the stairs of the house, and glanced through the stairs at the corner.

With just one glance, Xia Jingsheng was stunned.

The monster was right in front of him, shaking off his spoils.

The belongings at hand were piled up in a pile, including tonight's porcelain vase and copper plate, all put into a sack.

At this moment, Xia Jingsheng's foot slipped and made a loud noise, startling the monster.

The monster turned its head, its thick black eyes were filled with hostility, and it looked coldly in the direction of Xia Jingsheng.

Xia Jingsheng quickly said to Sun Wenxi, "Hold your breath! Close your eyes!"

The two held their breath and closed their eyes.

The thing was getting closer and closer to them, and a stench came over, making Xia Jingsheng feel sick.

But he finally held back.

After an unknown amount of time, Xia Jingsheng's back was completely drenched in cold sweat, and the stench slowly disappeared.

"Boom, boom, boom!" The sound of bouncing rang in my ears, guessing that there was a piercing sound on the stairs.

When the sound faded away, Xia Jingsheng opened his eyes.

That thing has gone far away, now only a back can be seen.

Xia Jingsheng heaved a sigh of relief, only to realize that he was holding Sun Wenxi's hand tightly.

"What is that?" Sun Wenxi asked Xia Jingsheng in the darkness.

"It's a zombie." Xia Jingsheng said with lingering fear.

Zombies are ghosts in folklore, inhuman, irrational, and stiff, and can only move forward by jumping on weekdays.

It is precisely because of this that zombies are most likely to obey people.

"The face of that thing just now is [-]% similar to that of Xue Cheng." Sun Wenxi said.

Xia Jingsheng sighed, "It's just what you think, Xue Cheng has become a zombie, and for some reason he obeys others."

According to Xia Jingsheng's observation, the logic of the zombie Xue Cheng's behavior is very clear, he wants to steal the property in Xue's mansion.

So he would search around the house for property, and then bring the property to this mansion that has been unoccupied for a long time, sort it out and transport it.

The purpose of those who manipulate Xue Cheng behind the scenes is for money.

"Then where is it going with the things on its back?" Sun Wenxi frowned.

Xia Jingsheng raised the letter paper in his hand, and said softly, "Guicheng."

All these practices reminded Xia Jingsheng of an ancient profession: corpse chaser.

Manipulate the corpse, make the corpse obey him, and then achieve his goal.The corpse exorcist hiding behind Xue Cheng is to obtain the huge wealth after Xue Cheng's death.
