Mysterious country

When they arrived at Hu Daniu's home, they found that Hu Daniu was dead.

The body fell under the coffin, wet and covered with water stains that had not yet dried up. It looked like it had been dragged ashore after being drowned in the river. But in fact, Hu Daniu was obviously not drowned, because his body was extremely shriveled. If it weren't for the water stains all over his body, it would have looked like a mummy that had been weathered for who knows how many years.

His two eye sockets were sunken deeply, and his whole body was covered with bones. The fear and pain before his death still remained on his ferocious face.

Seeing Hu Daniu who died tragically at home, Xia Qi and Leng Yue's expressions were very ugly, because they obviously underestimated the killing speed of the female ghost.

They all thought that the investigation was carried out quickly enough, but now it seems that they just think that the facts are not at all what they thought at the beginning.

Because they didn't know if the female ghost was still there, Leng Yuezai and Xia Qi were very careful when approaching the coffin to avoid being attacked by the fierce ghost.

Fortunately, their fears did not come true. The female ghost seemed to have left, leaving only an empty coffin.

Looking down at the coffin, Xia Qi found that there was nothing in the coffin. If he didn't know better, he would have thought it was a new coffin that had just been made. But they knew very well what was in the coffin before that.

They were not unfamiliar with scenes similar to Hu Daniu's, because they had already seen it at Mr. Chen's house as early as noon. They had personally seen Chen Cong transform from a fat man into a dehydrated man. This was consistent with Hu Daniu was almost the same, except that he was still gasping for breath.

Leng Yue kept staring at the coffin containing the female ghost and said nothing, but Xia Qi thought about it and said:

"Hu Daniu's death proves that our previous suspicions were correct. Boss Chen's confidants did have some entanglement with the female ghost, but we just don't know what the entanglement is."

As early as in the afternoon, after they found out that Boss Chen had several confidants in the village, including Hu Daniu, Xia Qi decided to find out the ins and outs of this incident through these people. Who would have thought that as soon as they started taking action, someone among them would already be killed.

"I think this female ghost is just a water ghost. Although it won't drown people, it will make people die of dehydration, which is much more painful than drowning people. I really don't dare to think about it now, Boss Chen What on earth have they done to that ghost?"

After talking to himself, Xia Xia Qi glanced at Leng Yue who was still staring at the coffin endlessly, and then asked with some displeasure:

"I haven't seen enough after watching it for so long. Have you ever listened to me again?"

"I'm listening." Leng Yue nodded symbolically, then turned to Xia Qi and said:

"Give me the lighter."

"What are you going to do? Don't you want to burn this coffin? No!"

Xia Xia Qi vaguely guessed Leng Yue's plan, so she quickly refused and said:

"Let's not talk about whether this coffin is important to the female ghost. Just saying that we really burned this coffin is tantamount to declaring war on the female ghost again. This has nothing to do with our direct participation. The difference."

"I just wanted to take a look."

Leng Yue didn't know whether she didn't mean it in the first place, or she changed her mind temporarily after hearing Xia Qi's words, and didn't ask Xia Qi for a lighter again.

They couldn't be sure where the female ghost had gone, and whether she would be killing people tonight, but what was certain was that Hu Daniu had turned into a corpse, and the corpse couldn't tell them the truth, so There's no point in them staying here any longer.

At Xia Qi's mention, he and Leng Yue came to the home of another person closely related to this incident. This person was Lao Wang who had just suffered a huge fright.

As the saying goes, arriving early is worse than arriving by chance. Just as Xia Qi and Leng Yue were about to knock on the door, they saw Lao Wang rushing out of the door with a frightened look on his face. If Xia Qi hadn't reacted quickly enough, he would have definitely collided with Lao Wang. together.

"Wang Mu, Mr. Wang, right?"

Because he had met at Lao Chen's house before, Xia Qi remembered the names of several people at that time, so even though the light outside was very dark, he still recognized Lao Wang's identity with sharp eyes.

At this time, Lao Wang was just a frightened bird, and he couldn't stand the slightest fright, so when he was suddenly stopped by two black figures, he suddenly burst out a series of screams of fear.

"ah……!"

Lao Wang's yelling made Leng Yue and Xia Qi a little confused, but after thinking about it, Xia Qi thought of some possibility. I feel that Lao Wang probably witnessed Hu Daniu's tragic death with his own eyes, so he was frightened like this.

Reminding Leng Yue to hold Lao Wang's shoulders, Xia Qi suddenly dragged Lao Wang out of the door with force, for fear that his shouting would disturb the people inside.

Covering Lao Wang's mouth forcefully, trying to calm him down, Xia Qi listened to comfort and said:

"Look clearly, we are not ghosts but humans, you don't have to be afraid. If you don't believe me, look here, Xiao Nier is here..."

Ignoring Leng Yue's rolling eyes, he said it several times before Lao Wang finally listened to his words. His mood gradually calmed down and he asked:

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to ask you something." Xia Qi said before Leng Yue, not wanting Leng Yue to waste time like doing Tai Chi.

"What do you want to know about?"

"It's about Boss Chen's daughter-in-law Xiaoli."

"Xiao Li?" When he heard the name "Xiao Li", Lao Wang's body swayed visibly, and his originally gentle face instantly turned gloomy again:

"How do I know about her? If you want to ask, you should go to Boss Chen."

Lao Wang swallowed and said in a stiff tone.

Whether a person is telling the truth or lying, you can get certain clues from his tone or expression, especially for someone like Lao Wang who doesn't usually tell lies. He will know it as soon as he opens his mouth. Lying.

"You really don't know?" Xia Xia Qi emphasized his tone again.

"Of course I don't know. Are you finished? Let me go. I have something to do now!"

Lao Wang struggled to get rid of Xia Qi and Leng Yue, but they didn't have the strength to let go at all. He pulled hard but still couldn't break free.

Continuous inquiries were met with cold treatment, which also made Xia Qi completely lose his patience, but since this was the door of Lao Wang's house, if he shouted, it would probably cause unnecessary trouble, or even that. It could only be a fierce ghost wandering around here, so Xia Qi planned to take Lao Wang to a deserted place.

However, thinking that Lao Wang would not cooperate, Xia Qi simply chose a tough method and directly blocked Lao Wang's mouth and Leng Yue forced him to the yard of Hu Daniu's house.

Originally, Lao Wang was still struggling, but when he saw Hu Daniu's shriveled body, he calmed down instantly, and his eyes immediately became hollow.

Xia Xia Qi also said in a cold tone at this time:

"Chen Cong became a man. He only breathed his last breath. Hu Daniu's body is here, completely turned into a mummy. Why they did this, I think you must know better than us, but there is But we know one thing better than you, that is, if you don't answer us truthfully, this will be your fate in the future.

We can promise you that we will never tell anyone what you revealed to us today. Of course, you don't have a choice, because if you say it, we may still help you, but if you don't, you will definitely be dead. "
