Yitu stood in front of the deep ancient well, his whole body stiff and unable to move.
And the thing lying on his back all this time disappeared at some point.
A trail of wet water droplets spread from behind Yitu to the edge of the well.
At this moment, Du Jinyu was in the well.
When a pair of pale, bloodless hands grasped the edge of the well, Yitu's heart trembled slightly.
The thing climbed up the side of the well.
The eye is dazzling red, and the gold-embroidered wedding dress soaked by the cold well water looks extraordinarily bleak.
Immediately afterwards, Yitu saw Du Jinyu's face.
It was indeed a beautiful face that was lovable enough and full of possessiveness. The wet hair was attached to the curvaceous neck, making it even more fragile.
On the other hand, she was wearing a phoenix crown, the golden hairpin was on the verge of falling, and Yitu's stunned expression was reflected in her affectionate eyes.
Until the woman's cold hand caressed Yitu's face, one person and one ghost were almost face to face.
The cold breath locked him like a snake, and Yitu couldn't move at all.
He could only watch that beautiful face, which suddenly turned into a grimace.
Tears of blood flowed from the dark eyes, and Du Jinyu's mouth opened wide, like the last cry before suffocating to death.
Yitu had a strong illusion that Du Jinyu was calling someone's name.
But there was no sound in his ears, except for the silence and the sound of water dripping from the well.
The woman cried and screamed silently, her face becoming more and more terrifying.
Her body is sinking, and Yitu's body is also sinking.
The thing's face was pressed against his chest, and its hands were tightly wrapped around his waist, trying to drag him into the well.
Yitu couldn't move at all, and was dragged by it towards the mouth of the well.
The chest hurts, as if someone has eaten the heart, the scene in front of Yitu's eyes has become very blurred due to the pain.
All senses are weakening, and he can't even feel the existence of his own hands and feet.
Du Jinyu blocked Yitu's perception.
But the sound of water becoming clearer in his ears, and the dark and damp breath from the mouth of the well rushing into his nostrils, all told Yitu that he was about to be dragged into it.
Just when Yitu thought it was impossible for him to escape this time, a pair of hot hands caught his falling waist.
In an instant, Yitu broke free from the dark and chaotic world around him.
When the consciousness came back, the scene in front of him gradually became clear, and he saw Jiang Hanyu standing in front of him.
"Why are you here?" Yitu was really relieved, and his voice became hoarse when he spoke.
The man let go of the hand that was holding his waist tightly, and his handsome brows were slightly frowned.
He sized it up and made sure that Yitu was not injured, so he said:
"Let's go out first."
After speaking, the background behind him suddenly became nothingness, and a torn black hole appeared in front of the two of them.
Yitu was stunned for a moment, aren't they at Dong's house?
However, when he looked back, the well was still there, but the corridor behind him had turned into a ghostly path full of white paper money, and Du Jinyu had also disappeared in place.
This is not the Dong family!
Only after Yitu followed Jiang Hanyu out did he realize that the place he was in before was not a corner of the Dong family at all, but an illusion created by the water ghost.
He thought that the ghost hitting the wall was just Du Jinyu changing the illusion into Dong's house in order to confuse the players.
This is also the reason why Yitu couldn't go out no matter how he went.
Because the moment he stepped into the illusion, he had already left Dong Zhai.
If it weren't for Jiang Hanyu's pair of wings that could tear open space, he would definitely die in it today.
"How did you find me?" A trace of complexity flashed in Yitu's eyes.
Jiang Hanyu's eyes fell on the long-dead servant on the ground, and he said:
"When I came, you were being stuffed into the well by him."
Yitu froze for a moment, "What?"
When Jiang Hanyu found Yitu, it was when Yitu was on the verge of death.
So the illusion and the card field had a brief mingling. If Jiang Hanyu hadn't come this time, by the time everyone found Yitu again, he would have been a corpse long ago, soaked in the cold well water.
The domestic servant got up by pretending to be a dead body. After being possessed by a ghost, he tapped his toes on the ground and dragged Yitu, who was unconscious, into the well.
When Jiang Hanyu arrived, he happened to catch a glimpse of this scene.
But that thing was very vigilant, once it sensed someone was coming, it hid Yitu in the illusion again.
It's just that it didn't expect that the person who came this time had the ability to tear the space.
Yitu was rescued narrowly, and after a palpitation, the two dragged the body to the back door.
Fortunately, the butler's carriage did not leave, but the other players went up the mountain first.
Song Jingchen stood alone beside the carriage, staring closely at the piled corpses, with a little nervousness between his brows.
Jiang Hanyu didn't come, he didn't dare to act alone.
What's more, he believed in Jiang Hanyu's ability too much, and he was not afraid that he would not be able to wait for them.
Sure enough, after a while, the figures of the two appeared in the back door.
Song Jingchen breathed a sigh of relief. He watched Jiang Hanyu throw the last body on the carriage, and the housekeeper covered it with a gray sackcloth.
Before he could say what he wanted to ask, the man simply said, "Talk while walking."
"it is good."
After the steward pointed out the way for them, he drove the carriage first.
The three of them walked towards the road behind the mountain. Originally, they were not in a hurry, but it was still dark early in March.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, every house on the street had their doors tightly closed, desolate and silent.
And on the stone steps of the blue bricks, a skinny raccoon cat sprang out from time to time, and the sunken eyes were a little frightening.
What puzzled Yitu the most was that yellow evil spirit talismans were pasted on the door frames and thresholds of these houses.
He stepped forward to take a look. In contrast, although the handwriting of each yellow talisman was different, they were all written with the words "no evil spirits and evil spirits", which were used to prevent dirty things from entering the door.
"Strange." Song Jingchen was puzzled, "Except for the Dong family and the Du family, is it possible that all other households on Yong'an Street are haunted by ghosts?"
Yitu also didn't know the specific situation, "The steward told Master Dong that there have been murders on Yong'an Street recently."
"Heart thief?" Song Jingchen also remembered this, "But why is there no amulet on the door of Dong's house?"
Yitu also had the same thought in his heart, and said with a light smile, "Congratulations, you guessed the blind spot."
"Come on, let's go to the police station." Jiang Hanyu said.
Yitu nodded, since the incident of heart-thieves disturbed the residents of the whole street, someone must have reported the case.
Even if the police station is full of embroidered pillows and the murderer cannot be found, there should be some history of several cases.
It happened to be where the police station was, on the road they were going to go to the back mountain.
It was only when they arrived at the police station that they realized that they had really overestimated the efficiency of the police.
In addition to the notice placed outside, the gate of the police station was closed, and the same type of evil spirit charm was pasted on the door frame and threshold.
Yitu and Jiang Hanyu stood together in front of the notice, checking the limited clues.
The content of this announcement is very concise, but it also mentions a few key information.
[Recently, there have been murderers on Yongan Street. They are good at pretending to take out their hearts. They may be men or women, old or young. They commit crimes very quickly and only take people's hearts.
There have been many cases that have occurred frequently. I hope that people should pay attention to safety when traveling, and report to the police in time if there is any danger!When necessary, please take certain self-protection measures! 】
"A certain means of self-protection..." Jiang Hanyu thought lightly, turning his head to look at the yellow talisman on the door.
Just like a smile, full of interest:
"That's it?"
Yitu also felt quite helpless, if it was really made by humans, it would be impossible to disguise it without any trace.
Although the police department is not capable of handling cases, their intuition is quite accurate.
So this seemingly ridiculous yellow talisman is probably their best choice.
"The plot of this card game is so fragmented." Song Jingchen sighed.
Yitu nodded without denying it.
"However, the Dong family and the Du family are the center of gravity of this card game, and the heart thief must be in these two families."
The three continued to walk towards the back mountain. Fortunately, when they reached the place, it was not completely dark yet, and several other players were busy digging graves.
Seeing them coming, Lu Nan asked the butler for three more tools and handed them over.
"Where have you been? Why didn't you come here until now?" Lu Nan asked in a low voice.
Yitu thought for a while and said, "Something happened on the road, and I was trapped by Du Jinyu."
Surprise flashed across Lu Nan's face, "Your spouse rescued you?"
Yitu was calm and joking: "Yes, isn't he very powerful?"
Lu Nan didn't know what to say for a while, how could he not know whether it was serious or not?
The two ranked first, and even Hyena Hailing ranked lower.
"It's amazing. When you save other people, you should be handsome too, right?"
Lu Nan felt a little sour in his heart, but he had a dark belly.
Yitu: "...Brother, you are so humorous."
He quickly glanced at the location of Jiang Hanyu, it was quite far away, so he should not be able to hear what they said.
After a sigh of relief, he quickly changed the subject.
Originally, he said this as a joke, but he didn't dig a hole for himself.
After all, Jiang Hanyu loves to hold grudges, and it's not the first day he's been taught.
"Nothing happened to you on the mountain, did it?"
Yitu waved the shovel in his hand, the soil was very moist, and a small hole was dug in a short while.
Lu Nan shook his head, but with a slightly hesitant expression:
"Nothing happened when we came up, but it might happen later."
"When everyone is here, the death condition should be triggered."
After hearing this, Yitu couldn't help frowning.
He looked around. After the sky darkened, the shadows of the trees on the mountain were whirling, and when the wind blew, it really looked like ghosts were floating.
But the corpses piled up at his feet had distorted and terrifying faces.
An inexplicable feeling of ominous premonition welled up in Yitu's heart, and the feeling of chills on the back was unmistakable.
He and Lu Nan stopped talking, and accelerated the speed of digging.
Yitu dug very carefully, and soon a grave was dug.
He was just about to carry the corpse into the pit, but when he looked up, a tall and strange figure flashed in the woods in front of him.
But it was just a flash, and the fast Yitu thought he was dazzled.
Surprised, he threw away the shovel in his hand, and walked towards the place where Jiang Hanyu was without saying a word.
And Song Jingchen, who also had a premonition, took out his identity card after thinking about it.
In his hand, the ID card turned into a paper umbrella made of snow-white bone with black patterns.
The moment he held up the umbrella, a faint scent of ink diffused into his nostrils, which was the unique smell of that person.
The coldness and fear were quickly dispelled one by one.
Song Jingchen sighed softly, but the umbrella was already gone.
And the thing lying on his back all this time disappeared at some point.
A trail of wet water droplets spread from behind Yitu to the edge of the well.
At this moment, Du Jinyu was in the well.
When a pair of pale, bloodless hands grasped the edge of the well, Yitu's heart trembled slightly.
