Mingxia spits out fog, and the rooster crows at five o'clock.

A burst of exclamation came, filling everyone's eardrums.I don't have time to think about it too much, and I don't know what's going on.In this ghost mansion, everything happened so suddenly, everyone could only wait and watch, carefully protecting their own safety.However, as long as you take a wrong step or neglect your precautions, you may encounter accidents.The murderer is everywhere, who is his next target?

"Come here!—Come here!"

"The voice came from Wu Yougong's room." Before he had time to think too much, Chu Tiankuo ran across the hall towards several rooms on the west side.

"Brother Kuo, what happened?" Qingfeng Qingyang poked his head and asked.

"Qingfeng Qingyang, the Ghost Mansion is very dangerous right now, you guys wait in the room and don't come out." After hearing Chu Tiankuo's words, the two returned to the room obediently.

When Chu Tiankuo reached Wu Yougong's door, he almost couldn't stop the brakes due to his speed, so he held the door with one hand before stopping. "What happened?"

Since Gu Lan was the closest, he was already waiting at the door, but he didn't look optimistic.She squatted against the corner of the wall, buried her head in her arms, and sobbed non-stop.Sensing movement in front of his eyes, he slowly raised his head. The red eyes from crying looked pitiful, and it was no longer the image of arrogance and arrogance at the beginning. "Will we all die here?" Her eyes were dull, as if she had no hope or longing for leaving here, only boundless fear lingered in her heart.

When Beichen saw Gu Lan's appearance, he felt a little pitiful.He stepped forward to comfort and said, "Miss Gulan, we will definitely leave here. I promise you."

"Really?" Although it was doubtful, he firmly believed in Bei Chen's words.She stood up, wiped away her tears, and forced a smile. "I believe the young master will be able to take me out."

Chu Tiankuo and the others approached to check the situation. There were quilts and pillows scattered in the middle of the room, as if someone had made the floor bedding last night and hadn't had time to put them away.The person who made the floor berth should be Bi Chenghu. After all, he can occupy the entire bed by himself. If he sleeps on the bed, how can others sleep.Sure enough, there was a fat man lying not far away, it was Bi Chenghu Benhu.Chu Tiankuo's first reaction was that he was fainted again?

Gradually shifting his gaze to the bedside, Wu Yougong was standing in front of the bed, and Zhan Chujing was lying on the bed. "Fourth brother, wake up—fourth brother—" Wu Yougong cried and shook and called to the person on the bed, but he didn't move.

Nan Zhuye passed through the gap and looked at Zhan Chujing who was lying on the bed.His mouth was purple, his body was swollen and shiny, his face was black, his fingernails were black, and blood flowed from his mouth, ears, eyes, and nose.Qiqiao bleeding is exactly like this, even the blood he bleeds is black.Nan Zhuye opened his eyes, the pupils were cloudy and dead for a long time. "He died of poisoning, and it should have been two hours since he died."

"What kind of poison is in it?" Mu Aichen asked.

Nan Zhuye looked at Zhan Chujing again, and judged from his state and the color of his body, "It's similar to toad poison, but stronger than toad poison.

Chu Tiankuo had heard a little about the toad's toxin.There are many nodules on the surface of the toad's body that contain poisonous glands, which secrete highly toxic mucus.The main ingredient is bufadienol compound, which acts like digitalis.Its venom can cause symptoms of nausea, dizziness, abdominal pain, diarrhea and vomiting in mild cases, and in severe cases, it can cause respiratory and circulatory system failure and death. "But the Zhan Chujing in front of me is bleeding from the seven orifices. This poison is really stronger than the toad toxin as Mr. Ye said." Chu Tiankuo looked at Nan Zhuye standing in front of the bed, "Although I don't know the identity of Mr. Ye, even the name But judging from his recent relationship with him, this person is young and proficient in toxicology. The result of his judgment should not be wrong."

Chu Tiankuo took the opportunity to check Zhan Chujing who was on the bed, his face did not become grim due to the poisonous pain, on the contrary it was calmer.The toxin must have penetrated into the blood, and he died before he knew it.Instead, it was the pimple on his face, which was very similar to the pimple on the toad's back.

Thinking of this, a light suddenly flashed in Chu Tiankuo's mind.But before he touched it, it had already disappeared.What is the connection?

Chu Tiankuo turned to look at Wu Yougong and said, "Have you offended anyone?"

Hearing this, Wu Yougong trembled all over.The murderer came after the five brothers! "I have a monopoly in Yanzhou City, and there are many people who are jealous. But I am kind to people on weekdays, and I am deeply respected by the people. If you talk about making enemies with people, it is hard to guard against unintentional offending people. I really don't know the specific people."

Chu Tiankuo only believed the truth of this statement, it was impossible for them brothers to be so stupid, ruthless, and ruthless not to offend others.I don't know what immoral things I did, and now I am being retaliated against.But no matter what the motive is, the murderer should be brought to justice in order to be worthy of the iron law.

It is now confirmed that Zhan Chujing died of poisoning, but it is not yet known whether the poison came from the mouth or was calculated by a hidden weapon. "Let's move Mr. Zhan to the firewood room and carefully examine the cause of the poisoning. Beichen, you, Miss Gu Lan, and Miss Liu are waiting here. We will go back as soon as we go."

"Okay, you pay attention to safety."

Wu Yougong looked dull, and slowly said: "I want to wait here, please trouble everyone."

His condition was really bad. Chu Tiankuo signaled Beichen and the others to wait at the door, and whispered to Beichen, "Protect Wu Yougong and Bi Chenghu, they are likely to be the murderer's next target. The safety of the other two girls is also entrusted to him." You!" Although Bei Chen didn't want to be ordered by him, he knew the serious situation, so he nodded in agreement.

Fear, fear also.Dim life with many dreams, most of them have a guilty conscience.Wu Yougong sat in the room blankly, and the successive deaths made him feel like he was facing an abyss. At this moment, he felt that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him. Those were souls from hell, dragging him into the darkness, and he would never be reborn forever.

The second, third, and fourth brothers were killed one after another.Of the five headed family members in Yanzhou City, only he and his fifth younger brother are left. The murderer has a clear goal, and the people who killed are all his sworn brothers.Maybe he will be the next one. Thinking of this, Wu Yougong could no longer sit calmly.He is also a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, but he has never faced the threat of death like this.Waiting here is also a dead end, it is better to open a way out, even if it is desperate, it is worse than waiting for death.

On the carved lacquer table against the wall is a long thin-necked vase with landscape patterns, the wood is like flowing water, and it is exquisitely crafted.Wu Yougong got up and walked to the front of the case. If it was not a last resort, he would not have made such a bad move.When he put his hand on the vase and turned it slightly, there was a muffled sound behind the wall, the door opened behind him, and a secret room appeared in the room.

There are secrets hidden in this underground palace, but at this moment it has become Wu Yougong's only escape route.

"It's finally here—hundreds of dead souls are waiting for your arrival." The man hiding in the dark showed a satisfied evil smile, and his plan finally ushered in the end of victory.

At this time, the sun has risen, exuding dazzling light.Since coming to Yanzhou City, the sky has always been gloomy, as if a layer of smog is shrouded in the sky, it is really rare to see sunshine now.Chu Tiankuo and the others carried Zhan Chujing's body and walked towards the firewood room. The elongated shadow was reflected on the ground. Unfortunately, this place was too gloomy, and all the warmth and vitality that was full of it all dissipated.Mu Aichen deliberately took out a handkerchief to cover one corner, he really disliked it.If he hadn't touched it before, it was just because Chu Tiankuo wanted it, and he didn't refuse.

She Zhonghan's body in the firewood room was already stinking because of the snake's swallowing, and several people resisted the smell and did not enter.He took off Zhan Chujing's clothes outside the door and checked carefully from head to toe. Not to mention the wound, he didn't see any needles.In this way, poison can only enter through the mouth.

"Since you're here, why don't you check the situation outside the door." Nan Zhuye said to the two after checking the corpse and putting it into the woodshed.

Chu Tiankuo curled his lips and said, "Those snakes must still be there, I wonder if these snakes don't need to eat and drink, wouldn't they starve to death?"

"It's good to check it out."

Mu Aichen also agreed, the minority obeyed the majority, and the three of them came to the door.

Chu Tiankuo looked unhappy, and reluctantly lay between the cracks in the door, "I'll just say it! These snakes..." He wanted to say that they were all there, and he couldn't get out at all.But when he looked outside, he suddenly felt something unusual.He scratched his head, only felt that something was wrong but couldn't tell what was wrong, "You two have a look, there seems to be something wrong with the snake outside."

Mu Aichen and Nan Zhuye came to check the situation of the snake.There was indeed something wrong with these snakes, Mu Aichen hit the nail on the head, and a magnetic voice came from his throat, "Shadow."

"Shadow—" Chu Tiankuo looked at his elongated figure, and squeezed the two of them to lie on the door.The pupils suddenly dilated, turned around and clapped their hands and shouted, "That's right! It's the shadow. There was no sun before, but today I found out that they don't have shadows."

Chu Tiankuo picked up a stone, and there was a big tree not far from the gate.He approached and embraced with both hands, and stepped on the big tree to climb up.

"Young Master Chu, what are you doing?" Mu Aichen asked in confusion, while Nan Zhuye behind him watched silently while holding his sword.

"Climbing a tree! I was a good tree climber when I was young, and now I have an idea, and I want to verify it myself." Chu Tiankuo sprinted up the tree like a monkey, and stopped when he passed the eaves.Seeing the situation outside the door clearly, he raised his hand, aimed at a snake, and threw the stone in his hand precisely.The stone smashed towards the snake, pierced the snake's body and fell to the ground. ――Snakes are actually transparent.

This important discovery made Chu Tiankuo overjoyed, and these clues gradually gathered together like a jigsaw puzzle.He waved his hands and accidentally stepped on the air when he was excited. "Ah—" and fell to the ground, Mu Aichen wanted to catch him, but unfortunately missed him.Seeing him fall to the ground, "Young Master Chu, I wanted to catch it...but..." Chu Tiankuo rubbed his buttocks that had been broken in two. Fortunately, he didn't climb very high, and only sprained his ankle.

"My foot seems to be sprained." Chu Tiankuo said while rubbing his foot, obviously in pain, frowning.

"A sprained ankle, look at me." Nan Zhuye stepped forward without waiting for Chu Tiankuo's consent, grabbed the injured foot, and gently broke it with a "crack".Chu Tiankuo cried out in pain, "Are you going to break my feet?"

"Do you still feel pain now?" Nan Zhuye asked.

Chu Tiankuo turned his ankle and seemed to be fine, "Unexpectedly, Mr. Ye is quite powerful." He was already fine, but he wanted to cheat, so he refused to admit that he was fine. "Ouch! It still hurts, it hurts!"

Southern Candleleaf:  …

"Master Daha, go and have a look, Mr. Wu is gone..." A female voice came, and Liu Xiwu was running here.With a strange look, he trotted all the way. "Young Master Daha, Young Master Chu, Young Master Ye... Young Master Wu is gone, go and have a look!"

"What? Gone?"

Liu Xiwu replied: "Yes! He disappeared as soon as we opened the door. Only Mr. Bi was lying on the ground. Now Mr. Erha and Sister Gu Lan are looking for it. I sent me to tell you."

"Mr. Ye, you go there with Miss Liu first. Mr. Chu's legs are inconvenient, so I'll be there after I help him." Mu Aichen said.

"Uh!..." Chu Tiankuo wanted to say that he had been healed a long time ago, so that his bad idea would be exposed, so he had no choice but to continue to pretend.

Nan Zhuye nodded, and walked forward with Liu Xiwu.
