There were too many cases in Huang Xing's mind, and he didn't even think about going to the bone demon for a while.

He didn't answer for a few seconds, and the atmosphere was quiet and awkward, as if he was overwhelmed by the question.

"Yeah, it's very interesting," Du Hanzhang said suddenly, breaking the silence, "A person slipped away quietly under the eyes of a group of monsters. Does Minister Yang feel that there is nothing wrong with it?"

Yang Wu looked at him, twitched his eyebrows twice, recognized him, and said in a wrong way: "Oh, it's you. Didn't you get fired? Why did you take up the job of the Alien Prevention Office again?" gone?"

Du Hanzhang walked over and said with a smile: "I was fired, what are you doing? I'm still making a living by myself."

"It's great to be your own boss, no one will wrong you." Yang Wu became serious after feeling, touched the little wolf and said, "If you are not in the anti-transformation office, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

And the one in the tree over there, Yang Wu glanced sideways, and found that it was the ghost looking for his sister. Although he didn't know the purpose of their visit, he had an inexplicable feeling that something had happened to them recently in the Demon Union.

Because Yang Wu's eyes were very hidden, Yu Yiqin didn't realize that he was disgusted, he only heard Du Hanzhang say: "Lu Xing said there is a tomb here, I'll come and have a look."

Yang Wu didn't understand what's so interesting about the tomb. Everyone has a share, so he changed the topic and said, "Yaoyao and the teacher seem to have some problems, but I'm still a little confused and can't tell. What do you have?" If you have an idea, please share it.”

"I'm also confused," Du Hanzhang said while thinking, "but a few days ago I just heard about a drynaria that is good at camouflage, and this place happens to be a guillotine. If this is her lair, and she disappeared' 'Yaoyao' is her pretending."

"Then why this archaeological team was able to avoid patrols, was able to dig such a big hole in three days, and even she was able to disappear without anyone noticing, all these make sense."

Yang Wu is in charge of demons, so he is naturally aware of the characteristics of drynaria, but the problem is, he said: "But there are no such demons in our city?"

All registered monsters need to fill in the birth place, and there will be a connection between the birth place and the monster veins. It is impossible to lie about this, which is equivalent to the household registration place that cannot be changed for life.

According to Du Hanzhang's understanding of Yang Wu, there is no need for him to lie about such trivial matters, but everyone will be a little forgetful, Du Hanzhang said: "Are you sure?"

"Then what's the uncertainty?" The little wolf yawned long and stutteringly on his arm, feeling so drowsy that Yang Wu quickly shook his voice a few times, and immediately softened his voice a little, "There is a total of There are not many monsters."

Compared with people, monsters can indeed be described as "rare". Huang Xing lit a cigarette, thinking that he had lost his mind.

But Du Hanzhang continued to ask: "Are there no ones from other places?"

"If there are any registered ones, if there are any, they have not been registered yet." Yang Wu said a little curiously, "No, why are you making a fuss about this bone demon? What did he do?"

It's a long story, Du Hanzhang said: "Let Huang Xing tell you, this monster is related to a case they are working on."

Huang Chen worked hard and came out to talk to Yang Wu about the case at the construction site, from the dog in the well on the construction site to the robe wrapped around the bone handed in by Yu Yiqin.

Yu Yiqin knew all these things, so he didn't pay attention when he heard them, and lowered his head to observe the burial pit under his feet.

I heard from the monkey demon that he didn't care about throwing people into the pit. The archaeological team was in chaos because Teacher Chen was injured. No one paid attention to whether "Yaoyao" got out of the pit or where he went.

If she was human, even if she panicked and plunged into the woods, with so many people and monsters present, she shouldn't be completely ignored.And if she is the bone demon, if she wants to leave quietly, there are many ways.

But the question is where did the original Yaoyao go?When did she replace the other party?

If you want to find out these things, you must investigate and cross-examine. Just as Yu Yiqin felt that he didn't have the energy to spare, he was about to stop his thoughts, and his eyes fell unconsciously in the burial pit, and he caught a glimpse of something that looked familiar.

He fixed his gaze and saw a hip bone in the pit, but it was not the bone that was familiar to him, but the imprint left on the bone.

The imprint looks like a natural rubbing mark left by the cloth, but the cloth hundreds of years ago has long been rotten to dust, but the lines on the old cloth are somehow imprinted on the bones, and not only the lines, but also the background color. Peep out a thing or two.

Yu Yiqin could see clearly that the print on this hip bone was exactly the same as the robe worn by the old man.

This made Yu Yiqin suddenly think, is there any connection between the old man and this burial pit?

He stretched out his hand to fish it out, and the ashes twisted like a spider's silk thread immediately pulled the broken hip bone and flew towards him.

-

Outside the burial pit, after listening to Huang Chen's description of the case, Yang Wu couldn't help but look a little more serious: "I heard from you that this matter seems to be manipulated by the demon clan, and then someone from our demon clan mixed up with them. But what are they planning, it’s not too late for the devil to take revenge?"

Huang Xing didn't live as long as them. He only had a story-like impression of the great war thousands of years ago. He didn't know much about it, and he couldn't really feel it. He could only shake his head when asked.

Du Hanzhang was someone who had seen the scene of the massacre of the demons, and he couldn't deny it: "It's also possible, but what are they planning, isn't it what you want to investigate next?"

"Hey, you really know how to make plans, and you tied us together with the Alien Prevention Office in one sentence," Yang Wu said with a smile, "Okay, let's investigate, then what are you doing?"

Du Hanzhang spread his hands and made a good citizen statement: "I will obey the law and obey the law, pay taxes honestly, and try not to cause trouble to a harmonious society."

Hearing this, Huang Chen felt that he was overqualified, but Yang Wu only felt that he was shameless.

Others don't know, but Yang Wu still knows that this good citizen caused huge losses to the Alien Prevention Office with his own efforts, and was once listed as a high-risk person in the Three Realms, so he still has the face to say he obeys the law.

Yang Wu sneered and said: "I'll go back and chase after the bone demon, to see if the registration work of our Demon Federation Office has not been done well. Then what about Yaoyao, as long as she is in this mountain, I can also help you Look for it. But this tomb, if there is no legal procedure, I can’t let you continue to dig.”

"Ordinary people don't know it, so let's forget it this time, but you must know the Alien Prevention Office. The seventh peak is the place where our director's father took root before he opened his spiritual aperture. I don't know if there is any tomb of the spirit king. But this is equivalent to the hometown of our director, I hope you can show a little basic respect, knock on the door before digging a hole, okay?"

Du Hanzhang thinks it is possible, but as an outsider in ancient times, he can only say: "Can you look at the anti-transformation work, what do you think I am doing?"

Yang Wu told him that he was used to it, but he couldn't change it for a while, so he went to see Huang Xing after saying "oh".

Huang Chen's position is a typical job post, he didn't ask the archaeological team to dig the pit, but he had to pick up the "discussion" of the Monster Federation, but he was used to it, nodded and said: "Okay, I will Got it, I will report this matter to our leader.”

For the safety of personnel, leaders generally agree with this proposal.

Yang Wu got the promise from the people, and he also planned to strengthen patrols and defenses. Since the whereabouts of a girl in the archaeological team was still unknown, the two sides quickly ended the conversation and began to cooperate to find someone.

The monster clan patrolled the mountains to see if there were any target women within the forest range, and the Alien Prevention Office was in charge of asking the archaeological team "Yao Yao" about his words and deeds.

As for Du Hanzhang, he followed Yang Wu and asked as he walked, "Lao Yang, is the Lingwang's tomb on this mountain?"

Yang Wu glanced at his sleeping son, and then looked at him with an illiterate expression: "Do you think I'm someone who knows this?"

"Like," Du Hanzhang teased, "It is said that in the Sifang seal of Patriarch Jingu, there is a secret that can connect the Kunlun ladder. Once the ladder is connected, the monsters and ghosts can fly up and go to Tianyong City to be Immortal. The dream of the practice world may be in the tomb of the spirit king, the old fairy of the wolf clan, with boundless magic power, don't you want to?"

Legend has it that Tianyong City was the sky where the gods lived before 5000 years before the Jedi Tiantong.

Yang Wu looked at him like a fool and said, "People like you simply haven't raised children before, so you don't know what it means to be physically and mentally exhausted."

"I just want to raise my son well now. What are the Sifangyin and boundless mana? What are they? Can I exchange them for a sea view room? I didn't say that, such a superstitious and unearned word, you have a culture How do people say it?"

Du Hanzhang never expected that one day he would be accused of superstition by a monster obsessed with buying a house, which shows that times have indeed changed.

It's just changing, the human heart, the demon heart, the ghost heart and even the devil heart, basically everything in the nature has been handed down.

In the world, there are monsters like Yang Wu who keep up with the times, and old people who are obsessed with the past, and similar differences will last forever.

Yang Wu said that he didn't know, and Du Hanzhang could only rely on himself: "When you think about it, you say it. People are superstitious, and it has nothing to do with words. You don't have to be biased. There is no shortage of superstition among cultural people. You don't know the tomb of King Ling. Forget it, then I’ll come and check it myself, but I don’t have an official letter from the Alien Prevention Office for you, do you think it’s okay?”

"I don't think so," Yang Wu squinted at him, "Are you really not coming?"

Du Hanzhang smiled and said nothing, Yang Wu knew that for capable people, barriers and rules were used to overcome them.

Yang Wu knew that "no" was useless, so he didn't say hurtful words. When someone called him in the distance, he paused and revealed: "Our director, I don't know where he lives all year round, but if you You even met him when you dug his hill, don’t be tough, just slip away, I don’t think you can beat him.”

It is said in the Tao that Duan Junxiu, the director of the Demon Federation, is a half-demon who has lived for more than a thousand years. His father is a ginkgo tree demon and his mother is human. He is very mysterious and rarely shows up. It can be said that he is a great character.

Du Hanzhang was taken care of, and nodded to express his agreement and appreciation: "Okay, but I haven't seen your director, even if I met, I wouldn't recognize it."

Yang Wu originally planned to let him see the aura of the boss, but Duan Junxiu looked like a person, so Yang Wu could only continue to leak the secret, muttering: "Then look at the clothes, there are blue ginkgo biloba on the neckline of his clothes. leaves."

"Okay," Du Hanzhang patted his son's head, "Understood, thank you."

Fearing that he would wake up the little wolf, Yang Wu threw his hand away, turned around and left, while Du Hanzhang went in the opposite direction to him and went to the burial pit.

Yu Yiqin on the tree saw that they had broken up, so he floated down quickly, passed by Du Hanzhang who came over, and quickly caught up with Yang Wu.

He asked Yang Wu about the news of vultures, Yang Wu looked at him with "Where is that fast" written all over his face, Yu Yiqin knew that his monster race was such a pee, he couldn't even get angry, turned around and saw Wu Yang also ran away come over.

"Brother, I asked Li Zai, and he said that's how it happened."

That is to say, after the conversation between Lu Tao and Yang Wu, and after his supplements, Yu Yiqin almost figured out the ins and outs of the matter. Wu Yang still had the task of finding someone sent by Yang Wu. After speaking, he stretched his arms and turned into a crow and flew into the room. into the woods.

Yu Yiqin was also about to leave, but when he saw Du Hanzhang fiddling in the burial pit, he paused for a few seconds, then followed suit.

He jumped into the pit and saw Du Hanzhang squatting on the ground, inserting a wooden slip into the solid old soil like cutting tofu.

This type is called rest talisman. Du Hanzhang let go of his fingers, and when he heard footsteps behind him, he knew it was Yu Yiqin without turning his head.

This person has a smell that has been smoked from the pile of sacrifices all year round, which is a bit like the incense in the temple, but it is much lighter, and now it is blowing over with the wind.

Yu Yiqin walked up to him and stood still. On the way over, he saw his profile sideways. For a moment, he felt that his expression seemed a little sad.

Du Hanzhang's mood is not sad, he is just a little contradictory.

Although there are ossified bones all around, they all look the same, and it is impossible to tell who is who, but Du Hanzhang feels that this is not a burial place for the Jingu people, because flesh and clothes will corrode, but stones will not. meeting.

Jingu people like to wear some small jade cong-shaped other mountain stones on their braids, and there are engraved Cangluan seals on the stones. Du Hanzhang didn't see that kind of pearl stones in this pit, not even a single one.

He was a little disappointed in his heart, but he was strangely relieved. The latter was the reason for his contradiction, as if he was celebrating something.

Du Hanzhang didn't want to think too much, so he immediately turned his attention away, turned his head to look up, and said, "Looking for me?"

"Yeah." Yu Yiqin said, and handed him the hip bone he picked up.

Du Hanzhang had a good memory, and when he saw the print, he squinted his eyes. After thinking for a few seconds, the robe he used to carry his bones came to mind.

Since it was printed on the bone, there is no need to ask where it came from. Du Hanzhang took it with both hands, took a closer look, and scraped off the mark with his fingers, and found that the dye had seeped into the bone.

It was a coincidence that this kind of dye was not a regular job during his lifetime, and he had seen it a lot. Du Hanzhang lowered his hip bone and looked at Yu Yiqin: "Where did you find this?"

Yu Yiqin turned sideways and pointed to the location in the pit: "Over there."

Du Hanzhang followed the pointer and saw a mud print with a depression. He walked over and squatted down to look around, but he couldn't find similar prints on other bones.

"It's the same pattern as the robe on that old man." He knew a lot, and Yu Yiqin was not stingy to ask others for advice, saying, "That old man is also a skeleton. Do you think he has a connection with this pit?"

Combining the information given by Yang Wu, Du Hanzhang thought about it for some reason and felt that he was staying out of the matter, but it seemed that he was being dragged into the muddy water intentionally or unintentionally by the people behind him, because no matter how the old man looked at it, it was the same as this burial pit. Can't get rid of it.

"Yes, he may have come out of this burial pit, and among these people, he is still a relatively noble person."

The only clue was the pattern, and Yu Yiqin couldn't see it, so he could only continue to ask: "How can we tell that he is distinguished?"

Du Hanzhang turned the pattern on the bone in his hand so that he could see it more easily: "Because this kind of dye that is difficult to wash off when it is stained on things is called Zhiyinai. This kind of dye is very rare and can dye the most expensive Pure blue, only the nobles who were able to get the imperial gift at that time could afford it."

Well, even if it was a noble who cheated the corpse, even though the old man didn't look as noble as Du Hanzhang.

Yu Yiqin glanced at the empty mud marks in the corner and said, "If he went out from here, why are only he and those few able to go out, and the rest are still lying here?"

"Maybe it's because he's more honorable." After death, people can't use it, because the currency in the world can't be used in the ghost world, so according to the routine of supernatural novels, everyone should fight for resentment.

But the existence of Youdu proves that the ghost world is also an orderly world, resentment cannot increase the power of a ghost out of thin air, only cultivation and devouring can, and the latter is strictly prohibited in Youdu.

So if a certain skeleton can be picked by the demons and then bestowed with "resurrection" on the demons, then it must have other characteristics.

Du Hanzhang couldn't guess what it was now, but the more he looked at the mud prints, the more he felt that they seemed to come from three bones, one big and two young.

And the old man plus the two raw piles on the construction site, there are also three...

The more you look at these mud prints, the more you associate them. Du Hanzhang suddenly turned his head, and raised his voice to the front right: "Lu Xing."

Huang Xing let out a "hey" from a distance, and then heard him ask: "Ask the archaeological team, have they cleaned up the bones?"

The archaeological team has already been escorted out, Huang Xing called the accompanying team members, and quickly shouted in a daze: "They said they haven't started yet, what's wrong?"

Du Hanzhang and Yu Yiqin looked at each other for a moment: "Tell me, is it possible that the old man took the two living piles in Meibanli Well from here to replace the 'dead man'?"

These words made Yu Yiqin suddenly feel that he was gradually approaching Gu Chunxiao.
