The old man is also surnamed Xin. If you want to count, he may still be Xin Nan's grandfather.

When he entered his house, there was a family portrait hanging in the center of the house. Among the two young people with their shoulders crossed, one of them had facial features somewhat similar to Xin Nan's.

"This is your grandfather."

Xin Nan was a little confused, looking at the photo for a long time without speaking.

The old man told Xin Nan something about Xin Dazhi's youthful deeds. Shi Qian sat quietly on the side as a companion. After a while, it was dinner time. The old man pulled Xin Nan up, turned to Shi Qian and said, "We have dinner It's a custom to go to the ancestral hall to pay respects to the ancestors, and the guests should stay here, and someone will ask you to have dinner with them later."

Shi Qian once again felt the xenophobia of the Xin clan, but he had no objection, nodded obediently and said, "Good village chief."

Seeing that he was sensible, the village head softened his expression, and reminded: "It won't be long, just follow along later."

Shi Qian nodded again.

Sure enough, not long after, the burly man he had seen before came to lead the way. He led Shi Qian through stone houses built in tall trees and deep forests, and stopped in front of the largest stone house.

Shi Qian looked away: "I just saw a house with red walls and yellow tiles, which is really different from your other houses."

Although the small building is small in size, it is surrounded by four corridors, which can be called a carved railing and painting building. It is very delicate, and it is in great contrast to the original stone house everywhere.

He spoke casually, as if he had glanced at it in a hurry and was suddenly curious. The person who led the way let down his vigilance, but he was still on guard: "That is our ancestral hall, and no one with a foreign surname is allowed to enter."

The second half of the sentence is emphasized, and the meaning of warning is not hidden.

Shi Qian nodded and didn't ask any more questions, as if it was a whim, and soon lost interest.

……

It's night, and the stars hang high.

Xin Nan tossed and turned and didn't fall asleep, scratching his bag swollen by mosquitoes: "Shi Qian, why aren't you asleep?"

Shi Qian sat at the table with his chin propped up, playing with the folding fan, and lazily said, "Go to sleep by yourself."

"I can't sleep." Xin Nan waved away the mosquito, sat up and said, "Can I ask you a question?"

Shi Qian raised his eyes: "I said I can't ask if you will hold back?"

Xin Nan pursed his lips: "I can't hold back."

Shi Qian: "Ask."

Xin Nan organized what he was thinking during the meal just now: "You brought me to this island because this is where my ancestors lived, and also because you wanted to find the murderer who killed my sister. It's a man, but there are quite a few children, it shouldn't be that the mother has left, there must be other reasons--could it be because the same as my sister was... an accident?"

Shi Qian was a little surprised, he didn't expect Xin Nan's mind to turn so fast.

Seeing Shi Qian's expression, Xin Nan knew that he had guessed right, and he couldn't help standing up excitedly, his face covered with cloud and resentment: "The monster killed so many people and is still pregnant, what the hell is he going to do!"

Shi Qian didn't correct the "monster" that Xin Nan said, looked at the time, got up and said, "Because of what, you have to watch it to find out."

Xin Nan was taken aback, and looked at Shi Qian who was still at the door: "Where are you going?"

Shi Qian didn't say much: "You stay here and don't go out, I'll come and have a look."

Before the words finished, the person had disappeared in front of Xin Nan.

……

The islanders make a living by fishing. To cast a net, they need to get up early and go to bed early at night.

On the way out of Shi Qian, there was basically no sound other than insects and dogs barking, and the lights in most houses were also turned off.He followed the young man who showed him around in the afternoon, and came to monitor them at night, to the edge of the small building.

The difference from the outside is that the small building is brightly lit, including lanterns in the corridors, and there are people on duty everywhere.

Shi Qian looked around, but couldn't find a suitable entrance to sneak in for the time being, so he did a concealment trick, easily avoided the sight of the night watchmen, retreated and hid behind a stone house, intending to see their shift system.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood still, he heard a conversation coming from inside:

"Is the food delivered?"

"delivered."

"how is the situation?"

"As usual, I just want to come out."

The village chief was silent for a moment, "It's fine as usual, come out... Which family doesn't want to be reunited."

After these words fell, the atmosphere in the stone house fell instantly. After some time, a person asked: "Village Chief, do you believe that they are really here to investigate the matter of Xin Nan's sister?"

Village head: "I made a fortune, Xin Nan's parents are indeed dead, and a relative died recently, and it was a woman."

The man scolded a local saying, "That thing has harmed not enough women on our entire island, but it has even harmed those who have already left to go outside!"

The angry shout was accompanied by other people's sighs and choked sobs. After a long time, someone asked:

"Village chief, do you think we can wait for... the person the elder said?"

"I don't know...but it's just this time, let's see the fortune."

The rest of Shi Qian didn't listen anymore, because there was a shift over there, and it happened that he also found a loophole to sneak in. He took advantage of the rotation of the people in the front and middle of the corridor, and made a secret trick. I got into the flowers and plants between the corridors, and walked along the shadow of the corridor.

The small building has two floors, and the area is small, but two doors are opened, one to the south and one to the north, and two windows are opened to the east and the west. Wall corridor.

The concealment technique is a low-level technique. It can't really make people invisible, but it can weaken the existence of the caster as much as possible. It is best used in a dark and sheltered environment, and it can almost have the effect of invisibility.But the small building is not like a stone house. There is no vegetation to cover it, only low grass and trees. Every corridor is guarded at every level, and it is not easy to sneak in.

At this time, no matter whether you have a higher-level talisman or a higher level of cultivation, you can enter and exit the land like no one, but unfortunately, the aura of the third level of Qi training is too shallow, and the time potential has almost been exhausted, and it is hidden. The trick time is limited, he doesn't know what's in the small building, and the open window also ensures that people outside can see the situation inside clearly, so he needs to be vigilant at all times when investigating.

In order to ensure that when encountering an accident while exploring inside, he can escape with spiritual power, and that he can have spiritual energy to re-seal the spell when he goes back, at this time, if he wants to go in, he can only use the method of mortals.

Shi Qian rolled up his sleeves, seemingly reluctant, but his eyes were full of eagerness to try: "I have already washed my hands in a golden basin, but I didn't expect that after so many years, I would have to regain my previous skills." After speaking, he turned around and walked around The two doors reached the west side of the small building. After searching carefully, I found a well.

As if he had forgotten the results of the low-altitude flight in the previous divination and feng shui class, Shi Qian highly affirmed himself: "Excellent!"

This small building is built with glazed tiles and fire stones. The north and south gates seem to be the same, but in fact the details are hidden on the top of the gate. The eyes of the golden fish are divided into black and white, showing the style of Tai Chi and Yin and Yang. Seeing the burning torches in front of the open space in the east, he guessed that there should be a water system in the corresponding west.

Shi Qian squatted by the well, was about to observe again, and stretched out a few fingers, using the experience of guessing right before, to re-consolidate the calculation method, but just moved his fingers twice, there were footsteps from far to near, he As soon as he retracted his hand, he immediately jumped in.

The well water was cold, and when Shi Qian jumped into it, he shivered immediately.

Before he had time to complain about how much the water was below zero, he felt endless pressure layer upon layer squeezing towards him, accompanied by repeated screams from his ears, as if a pair of hands were holding him down.Sensing that something was wrong, Shi Qian quickly opened his eyes, blood-red faces rushed forward one after another ferociously, stirring the water so that the Yin Qi and Spiritual Qi were mixed and disordered, the biting cold climbed up from the fingertips, and the sharp sound was in the ears Next to him, the pain of the eardrum bursting spread to the skull, the heart-biting pain of thousands of ants and the freezing cold of thousands of miles hit the face at the same time, as if being frozen into a popsicle and then being lingering while awake, life is worse than death.

"Wake up, the time will come."

The familiar clear voice rang in his ears, Shi Qian clenched his tongue with all his strength, spewed out a mouthful of blood, the screaming in his ears disappeared immediately, and the phantom in front of him also disappeared.

"Punishment."

An ethereal word fell to the ground, and those voices came back again, even more ferocious than before.

Shi Qian gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and silently recited the mantra of pure heart.

The screeching was sticky in the ear, and the cold was like a pain in the bone, spreading inch by inch.

Shi Qian gradually couldn't feel his limbs, and his five senses gradually disappeared. At the same time, the tearing pain came from the inside out of the dantian, and the blood vessels swelled. He seemed to hear the sound of bones and blood vessels rupturing in the dantian.

dead again?

Shi Qian was extremely calm, and the pained look on his face gradually became calm.

The only regret was that he promised Xin Nan to help him find the murderer but failed to fulfill his promise, but thinking of the weirdness in the well, and that Xin Nan was also a member of the Xin clan, he felt relieved again.

Since the Xin clan has such a magic weapon, they should be able to keep them no matter what causes the disturbance. Compared with investigating the case, Xin Nan's sister should hope that he can live well.

Shi Qian raised the corners of his lips, his face completely calmed down.

"Tai Chi fixes the two instruments, clear and turbid begins with form."

It seems that there is a voice sounding from the sky, and it seems to be close to the ear.

Shi Qian's eyelashes moved, and when he opened his eyes, he realized that he was no longer in the water, but in a secret passage in the well.

He coughed twice and sat up, spit out a few mouthfuls of water, and looked around vigilantly.

The surrounding lights are brightly lit, but there is nothing there, as if there is light emanating from the air, illuminating every detail of the person.

Shi Qian wiped the corner of his mouth: "If you're pretending to be a ghost here, why don't you stand up and let me see if it's a human or a ghost?"

"Disorder, master killer, extremely evil and extremely good, how can there be such contradictory life events?" The voice sounded out of nowhere again, seemingly confused, "I'll do the math again... It's difficult to distinguish between good and evil, the savior of the world. "

"It's so strange." There was a fluctuation of spiritual power in the invisible air.

Shi Qian squinted his eyes, accumulating power in his hands, and before the blow with all the power was ready, he heard a startled shout:

"Shi Zhilin?! Why are you a bitch?!!!"
