A group of seven people quietly visited Li Dashan's house.
"You two, go and block the backyard to prevent the people inside from escaping from the backyard."
"The rest of you come with me to meet the people in this room."
"yes!"
Six government officials with swords were divided into two groups.
The terrain in the village is not flat, so the villagers' houses are not neatly distributed. Li Dashan's house is built on a small gentle slope with a fenced yard.
When you get closer.
Through the window paper, you can see the dark shadow of a person, sitting motionless in the room, reflected on the window paper by the lights in the house.
"Hello?"
"We are passers-by on our way late at night. Want to stay here for a night?"
"Hello, can I stay overnight?"
Zheng Yuanhu stood outside the fence that was only half a man tall and shouted, but the figure on the paper on the window of the room remained seated and there was no answer.
The backyard of the house is also very quiet.
No one jumped out of the window to escape, and a fight broke out with the two government officials blocking the backyard.
Everything in front of me was too peaceful.
"Captain Zheng, could it be that the other party fell asleep?"
"Didn't hear your voice?"
One of the government officials guessed in a low voice.
Zheng Yuanhu did not answer the yamen officer's words. His eyes darkened, and he raised his hand and tried to push the courtyard door gently, but he pushed it open directly.
The courtyard door was not bolted.
Seeing this, Zheng Yuanhu's eyes flashed, and then he took the lead and walked into the courtyard.
The strange thing is that after pushing open the courtyard door, a group of five people approached the house. The house was still extremely quiet and calm. Even the figure on the window paper remained seated and motionless.
The atmosphere at this time was strange and depressing.
It's like a big stone is weighing on my heart.
The door of the house was not locked, bright light shone from the house, and the house was brightly lit.
"Huh? It smells so bad!"
"No! This seems to be the smell of rotting corpses after death!"
The faces of everyone changed drastically.
Zheng Yuanhu stepped through the door. The furnishings in the house were very simple. Li Dashan was a bad gambler. All the valuable furniture that could be sold in the house had been sold out, leaving only the bare walls.
However, there was no one in the house.
Nothing.
There was only a large pool of water stains dripping behind a shabby table. The water stains flowed down from the stool behind the table, which meant that someone had sat on the stool before.
"It's strange. Just now outside the house, everyone clearly saw someone sitting in the house?" A government servant stared at the puddle of water on the ground with confusion.
"I wonder if you have noticed that this room gives people a creepy feeling, as if there are a pair of eyes staring at us in the dark?"
"Heipi, go outside and see if there is anything unusual with Shan Pao and the others... Heipi, I'm talking to you, do you hear me? Why don't you say anything?"
Zheng Yuanhu shouted something to a government servant standing at the door, but the government servant named Heipi seemed to be deaf and did not hear him, so he stood still.
Plop!
The yamen servant named Heipi was fine one moment, but suddenly he fell to the ground.
A government official stepped forward to investigate, but his face was full of horror and he said, "Dead, dead, dead!"
Only then did everyone see clearly that Heipi's death state revealed something sinister. He had just died in front of everyone's eyes, but black spots and body spots had already appeared on his body, as if he had been dead for a long time.
The expression on his face was distorted and ferocious, his neck was stretched out long, and his veins were bulging, like an old turtle looking at the moon, desperately trying to stretch its neck out of the water to breathe, leaving a large puddle of water under its feet, as if it had fallen.
I just fished it out from the river, but my clothes were dry...
Such a death!
Hiss!
Everyone present took a breath of air.
Even Zheng Yuanhu couldn't help but feel numb in his heart, and a chill shot straight from the back and tail vertebrae to the human and heavenly cap.
This death situation is clearly the same as that of Li Dashan who died mysteriously in prison!
Such a big living person!
Just such a silent and absurd death in front of everyone's eyes!
Plop!
Plop!
In just a moment, another government servant fell to the ground behind Zheng Yuanhu, and died silently before his eyes.
It’s all the same way to die!
It's like falling into water and drowning, black spots and body spots appear on the body.
There were no outsiders in the house, but two brothers died mysteriously in the blink of an eye. Of the five people who first rushed into Li Dashan's house, only Zheng Yuanhu and two government officials remained.
"Zheng...Captain Zheng, is there something...dirty in this room that we can't see?" A yamen servant in his forties with a calmer personality seemed to have thought of something, and whispered to Zheng Yuanhu with sweat on his forehead.
.
"I have heard from the older generation that there are ghosts in this world that we ordinary people cannot see. Only Taoist priests, monks, and country goddesses can see them... I, could we have encountered the person who killed Li Dashan in prison?
The same...dirty thing, right?”
"When you encounter such dirty things, you can only find Taoist priests and monks... Let's evacuate quickly, Mr. Zheng. If it's too late, I'm afraid the brothers will really die here. Let's go back to Chang County first and find Taoist priests and monks to perform rituals."
!”
"withdraw!"
Zheng Yuanhu decisively led people to evacuate the house, but just as he was about to go out, poof!
Plop!
The two government officials died silently.
It was still the weird way of death of falling into the water and drowning.
Zheng Yuanhu no longer hesitated and made a decisive decision and rushed outside the house.
"I am Zheng Yuanhu, the chief arrester of Chang County. I am the evil monk who hides his head and tail here, pretending to be a ghost!"
"Aren't you afraid that the imperial court will send troops to surround your mountain gate and dig up the graves of all the dead bones of your ninth-generation ancestor?"
The energy in Zheng Yuanhu's body was circulating, and the sound was like a thunderbolt exploding in the house, and people rushed out of the house at high speed.
Seeing that Zheng Yuanhu was about to rush out of the house in the next step, he was surprised!
The lights in the house went out.
Suddenly, I was plunged into darkness, and the temperature in the room dropped sharply.
At night, Zheng Yuanhu screamed in fear. He, a tall man, seemed to be grabbed by something, and he was dragged into the dark room without any disturbance at all.
The night is calm.
The entire Shangpan Village was completely silent, as if it had fallen into a strange silence.
Zheng Yuanhu made such a big noise that no one in the village of Shangpan Village heard it. Everyone was sleeping deeply. Even the two government officials blocking the backyard of Li Dashan's house in Li Zheng
It was a bit abnormally calm, and no one came to check on the situation.
It's as if the inside and outside of the house have become two worlds separated by yin and yang.
Once you enter the underworld.
From then on, he was isolated from the Yang Realm.
moment.
Two moments.
Three moments.
The night is quiet.
Desolate as water.
Time passed little by little, and suddenly, a candle flickered in the room where the candle had been extinguished, and the dark and cold room lit up again, restoring the temperature of the earth.
Through the window paper, I saw a figure sitting in the room.
The figure sat motionless.
It was the same figure that Zheng Yuanhu and others saw outside before.
But this time, the figure suddenly moved.
The figure stood up from its position.
Then I heard footsteps.
The figure was walking towards the door, and a tall and burly figure walked out of the house.
