Shu Lingjia said: "I don't know if this matter has something to do with Yin's national destiny."

Jing Feitong said: "I see that your junior brother also said that he really couldn't leave because the emperor wanted to abdicate, crying and asking for the Zen throne for him. As a monk, if he had undertaken the fate of the country at that time, he wouldn't have I know it's a blessing or a curse."

Thinking about Yin Chen's unlucky luck too, he was staying well, but suddenly the sect wanted him to be the head, the old country wanted him to be the monarch, the blessing that most people can't ask for, when it comes to him, I'm afraid he will be annoyed to death.

After listening to Jing Feitong's words, Shu Lingjia was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Actually, I was very surprised when He Zizhuo agreed to Yin Chen's withdrawal from the Sword Trial Conference on such an important occasion, and went back to Yin Country to check the situation. .”

The Yangchun noodles on the table turned cold little by little, Jing Feitong cleaned his hands, walked over to pick it up, held up a chopstick and fed it to him, asking: "Why, is it because it doesn't suit his personality?"

Shu Lingjia was still holding Yin Chen's messenger talisman in his hand, and he opened his mouth to eat when something was delivered.

He said: "That's too inconsistent. I don't know what the situation of the Xinzong is. Anyway, the Qizong always advocates that one must cut off the mortal relationship after entering the fairy gate. It is not suitable to have too much contact with the old things of the lay people. On weekdays He Zizhuo may not let Yin Chen take care of this matter, not to mention that he has already ranked very high in the sword test meeting. It is a good time to win glory for the sect, wouldn't it be a pity to give up?"

Jing Feitong was thoughtful, and while feeding him side dishes and shredded chicken, he said, "What you said is that the mortal world has its own life, death, prosperity, and once you enter the fairy gate, you shouldn't forcefully interfere. Most sects have this rule. He Zizhuo is not a tolerant and loving person, and there is something wrong with this."

"And look at the few apprentices he has taken in, big brother, me, Yin Chen, Jiang Rong, which one is not born with a strange life and an extraordinary fate, which is good for him? He obviously doesn't seem to have arranged many things, but he went round and round. , always follow his purpose, isn't it strange?"

Shu Lingjia said: "I have suspected many times that some things are arranged by him, but I feel that no one can arrange them for such a long time, such a coincidence. He Zizhuo can't predict the future in advance, right? Now even Yin Chen is like this gone."

As he spoke, he put the communication talisman aside, took the bowl from Jing Feitong, and said, "No, I'll do it myself, you go and eat your bowl, eat it cleanly, don't turn around and ask me to pay for it." you."

"..."

Jing Feitong began to reflect on the long time no see, whether he was really indulgent last night, acting like a pervert, making Shu Lingjia so vigilant.

He smiled and said, "Then shall we still go to Xitian?"

Shu Lingjia said: "I think... let's go to Yin Country first, I'm always worried if I don't get to the bottom of this matter."

The two of them had something to eat, Jing Feitong called his subordinates to give some instructions, and together with Shu Lingjia, he and Shu Lingjia took control of the sword and headed for Yin.

It took the two of them more than half a day to arrive, and when they were still in the air, they could faintly see the top of the capital Wei Ke, the black clouds were overwhelming, almost covering all the sunlight, and the whole city gave people a heavy, A sense of darkness.

As Shu Lingjia and Jing Feitong approached again, a golden dark pattern that only they could see appeared on the city wall, which was the protective mark set by Yin Chen.

Shu Lingjia raised his hand, and a gap appeared on the gold pattern immediately. After he entered with Jing Feitong Yujian, he returned to write a few strokes out of thin air, and filled it up again.

Although such a thing happened, there were not many people on the street. After all, Wei Ke is the largest commercial and political center of the Yin Kingdom. If it falls on my own head, I will naturally come out to make money to support my family.

But pedestrians seldom talk to each other, and they all seem silent and dignified, which makes the street feel lively and gloomy.

Jing Feitong looked around as he walked, and there was nothing unusual for the time being, but he inadvertently exchanged glances with an old man selling purses by the side of the road.

The old man was dark and thin, and he sat on the bluestone slab with his waist hunched over to sell goods. Two three- and four-year-old boys beside him were squatting and playing together.

At this time, seeing Jing Feitong's noble appearance, and seemed to be very interested in his side, the old man quickly put down the grasshopper cage he was making for his grandson, and said flatteringly, "Young master, why don't you buy a purse for your sweetheart? What?" There are all kinds of styles, and the embroidery is very beautiful, she must like it!"

Jing Feitong was also very leisurely, bent down to pick up one and looked at it, and found that the embroidery work was really good, the purse was made into the shapes of various animals and dolls, very novel and exquisite, it seems that it is a pity that in the current situation Now, people are in panic, and things that make fun are not easy to sell.

He smiled and handed over a small ingot of gold, and said, "Old man, then give it to me. You can take the child back earlier."

Shu Lingjia was thinking about things while walking, when he looked up Jing Feitong was gone, he turned around and found that his brother had gone to the side of the road to buy something, couldn't help smiling, and didn't go there, standing there with arms folded waiting for him.

This gold is enough to support their family for two years, the old man was terrified and waved his hands again and again not daring to take it, so Jing Feitong stuffed the money into the hand of the kid who was playing next to him, took the things and left.

Seeing Jing Feitong walking towards him, Shu Lingjia pouted and asked with a smile, "It's all for me?"

Jing Feitong picked out a little fox-shaped one for him to wear on his belt, and put the rest in his Qiankun bag, and said with a smile: "Of course, go back and make a bed with these, let you play around in it. "

Of course he was talking about being in the state of a fox. Shu Lingjia couldn't help imagining that scene, and she was a little... heartbroken.

It looks good.

He was a little embarrassed by his own thoughts, and gave a soft "hum", and said, "I'm not three years old, who likes that stuff."

No one knows better than him when Shu Lingjia really likes her, and when her mouth becomes stiff again. Jing Feitong smiled without saying a word, changed the subject, and asked, "Have you contacted Yin Chen yet?"

Shu Lingjia said: "Just now I sent him a communication talisman, he is in the palace now, let's go and have a look."

The current emperor of the Yin Kingdom is a descendant of Yin Chen's elder brother's branch. He is closely related to him by blood and has mediocre abilities. He was devastated by what happened in the middle of the country. Seeing Yin Chen is like seeing the savior , all things obey him.

When Shu Lingjia and Jing Feitong entered the palace, the guards at the gate had already been ordered by Yin Chen, and they were respectfully invited in, and then led Shu Lingjia and Jing Feitong to the Dazheng Palace where Yin Chen and the emperor were currently staying. palace.

This is the main hall of the Yin Kingdom, Shu Lingjia was about to enter, when he looked up accidentally, he paused, and winked at Jing Feitong.

Jing Feitong also saw that on the plaque at the top of the palace, there was a golden dragon carved with its teeth and claws, majestic and majestic, but at this time its eyes turned red.

——This is a sign that there are evil things in the country, and the guardian beasts cannot bear to see them.

But they discovered it when they first arrived, and Yin Chen should be able to see it too.

The servant trotted in to report. When the two of them entered, Yin Chen was coming out in a hurry. After seeing Shu Lingjia, he nodded at him, called senior brother, and cupped his hands again, saying, "Senior Brother Lao Jing also came together." , I haven't had time to welcome you, I hope you will forgive me."

Jing Feitong was about to return the gift, when he heard someone shout "Great Uncle", and then, a bright yellow figure rushed out from the inner hall.

At this moment, Shu Lingjia saw the veins on Yin Chen's forehead twitch, and immediately knew that things were not easy.

I saw the monarch of the Yin Kingdom chasing after him in a dragon robe, he held Yin Chen's sleeve tightly, and cried, "Grand Uncle, are you going to leave me and leave? The disaster is not over yet, and I am really terrified." Don't worry, Yin Guo really can't live without the help of his great uncle, even if you don't want to accept my Zen position, you must not leave at this time!"

When he talked about his sadness, he had snot and tears, and cried: "Why didn't the father work hard to have more children, why did he pass the throne to me? I really don't want to be this poor emperor, okay?" Tired! I can't live anymore!"

Shu Lingjia: "..."

When Yin Chen first returned to the country, he was originally polite because he was the emperor, but he was not a good-tempered person in the first place.

He threw the crying emperor away with a flick of his sleeve, and said angrily: "Aren't you weaned? I didn't say I was leaving, I just went out of the palace to check the situation! This should be something you should do, if you don't want me to leave, you Let's follow together!"

The emperor immediately fell silent, tugged at his sleeves, and said: "Then I... I will wait for my great uncle to come back, and then take a rest, just to deal with some political affairs."

Yin Chen said angrily, "Understood."

He got rid of the emperor, and then said to Shu Lingjia and Jing Feitong: "What are you here to investigate? Let's talk as we walk, this matter is really troublesome."

Shu Lingjia said: "It's not a bad thing, I think your patience has improved a lot."

Yin Chen rolled his eyes towards the sky: "What can we do? His father gave birth to him, and I can't slap him to death."

He shook his head, feeling that these days are unbearable to look back on: "Actually, if the country is peaceful and the people are safe, he can be regarded as a successful king. He is a virtuous and corporal, and he is diligent enough and considerate of the people. He can listen to some opinions, but he just can't stand it." Don't worry, this is because I was frightened like this."

Shu Lingjia frowned and said, "What's going on? I came here this time because I felt that He Zizhuo would agree with you to come back to help Yin Guo. It's very strange."

Yin Chen felt very unaccustomed to hearing the word "He Zizhuo" from his mouth, and was in a daze for a while, remembering that the school has become like this now, he couldn't help but sigh.

He said: "Since the beginning of this year, people in the capital of the Yin Kingdom have been disappearing inexplicably. They can't even find the bones, and they don't leave any traces. Sometimes they may lie on the bed before going to bed at night, and the next day When I woke up in the morning, I was completely gone."

"What they have in common is that before they disappeared, they all suffered from illnesses, such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and cyan-like spots on their bodies, etc., but not all people with these symptoms will disappear."

Shu Lingjia said: "Where is the soul?"

Yin Chen said: "There are too many missing people, causing panic. There are always rumors that the middle school is haunted, but it is useless to invite many sorcerers and masters. After I came, I also used the soul search technique, but I found that even It is a person who just disappeared an hour ago, and his soul is hard to find."

Not only is the body gone, but even the soul is gone, so it's really weird.

Shu Lingjia said: "Then how do you know that you found the source this time?"

Yin Chen said: "Because the corpses found this time have the same scars as those of the sick people before. And the souls left in their bodies, just like I told you in the letter, have rotted into Dead spirit body."

Several people were talking while wielding their swords in the air, and they arrived almost instantly. When he said this, he raised his hand and said to Shu Lingjia: "That's right there. Do you see the house in front? This was originally Yin Guoyi's house. In the residence of a rich merchant."

"A few days ago, a concubine of that family had the situation I mentioned. The whole family was panicked, so they moved the concubine to another courtyard. I also specially sent someone to guard it. As a result, it happened early yesterday morning. It was discovered that their family and several outsiders who lived there died, but the concubine was ill, but was fine for the time being."

Shu Lingjia and Jing Feitong both saw the mansion in front of them. Although they were relatively far away, they both felt a strong yin at the same time.

——Of course, with so many people dying just now, it is normal to have Yin Qi.

Yin Chen said: "Go down."

The three of them landed their swords at the same time and walked to the front of the house.

There were soldiers guarding outside, but the expression on everyone's face also looked a little anxious. After seeing Yin Chen coming, they quickly saluted.

Yin Chen waved his hands and said, "You all go down."

These people are watching here, just to prevent some curious and unbelieving commoners from approaching, and it will not have any real effect. If there is something that even the three of them can't handle, then these soldiers can only be in vain sent to die.

There was a blood curse seal posted by Yin Chen on the gate of the courtyard, and it looked even more ferocious at this moment, Yin Chen took a step, peeled off the seal first, pushed the door open and walked in.

Shu Lingjia and Jing Feitong followed behind.

Although they had already prepared themselves for the strangeness of this matter, after entering the yard, the two of them were still slightly startled at the same time.

In the entire courtyard, there were seven people sitting upright, all in white clothes and white trousers, black hats and black shoes, sitting cross-legged, looking very strange.

Shu Lingjia asked, "Is this the posture and position of the deceased?"

Yin Chen said: "That's right, because this matter is weird, after it was discovered, all the corpses and items on the scene have never been moved, I just used magic to keep the corpse as it was at that time, to prevent it from rotting. Not only these, but everything around All the same."

His and Shu Lingjia's voices were not loud, but they echoed slightly in the empty courtyard.

It was the setting sun at this time, and under the dim sunlight, not only the clothes on the seven people, but even all the objects in the entire courtyard were all black and white.

——Black walls, pools, roof tiles, plaques, white corridors, columns, arches, small bridges... the tops of the surrounding flower trees are also covered with strings of paper money.

At this time, a gust of wind passed by, and the trees full of paper money rubbed against each other and rustled. This weird scene made people suspect that they had accidentally stepped into the underworld.

Shu Lingjia and Jing Feitong walked around under Yin Chen's guidance, and found that besides the seven people in the yard, there were nine other people in the corridor, wing room and pool.

And they are all experts, and they have already seen at this time that the seven people in the courtyard are arranged according to the direction of the Big Dipper of Tiangang, the five people on the corridor are in the position of the five elements, and the three people in the wing room are the three talents of heaven, earth and man.

The last person sat in the middle of the entire courtyard - at the bottom of a dry pool.

There was even a slight relaxed smile on everyone's face, paired with pale complexion and some spots on their body, it was very creepy.

Obviously, this is some kind of powerful magic circle, not only involving a large number of people, but also nested layer by layer, which shows that it was very powerful when it was activated.

Shu Lingjia said: "The identities of the seven people outside are not simple."

Yin Chen said: "It is said that they are not from this family. I suspect that they invited monks to exorcise evil spirits from outside. Maybe they saw that their family members were sick and felt scared in their hearts. That's why they did so. You see, the way they posed The array is obviously done by an expert, not the kind of charlatan pretending to be a ghost."

Jing Feitong said: "So maybe this is the reason why the corpses of this family can be preserved? Although the people they invited failed to save their lives, they still left a whole corpse anyway, so they won't disappear without a trace. trace."

Yin Chen said: "Senior Brother Jing is right, but according to your speculation, then there is still something at work that caused so many people to disappear before. Then why didn't we notice it?"

Jing Feitong nodded and said, "This is indeed strange."

After he finished speaking, he saw that Shu Lingjia was walking farther and farther alone in this strange house with his back to him and Yin Chen. He was afraid that he would be in danger, so he also walked over and asked, "Xiaojia , what are you doing?"

Shu Lingjia turned around when he heard the sound, with a strange expression on his face, and said, "You say, if the reason why it is difficult for us to find such a haunting thing is that it disappears after killing people?"

At dusk, the setting sun is like blood. It is the time when ghosts and humans are indistinguishable. Groups of indistinguishable shadows are wriggling in front of the strange corpse. Under the alternating light and dark, it seems that even Shu Lingjia's expression and tone are different. become weird.

Is there anything in the world that disappears without a trace, is invisible, can appear anywhere, and disappears at any time without leaving a trace?
