866 God's Will
More than a dozen families are still digging.
Gu Juan stood there expressionlessly, since he didn't speak, naturally no one dared to stop, and he didn't even dare to do it if he was a little lazy, for fear of angering this prince Chitose and bringing an unpredictable catastrophe to the entire mansion.
Suddenly.
A very low exclamation rang out from inside the pit.
I have to say that the Imperial Mansion of the Kingdom is extremely strict, even though the family seems to have discovered something wrong, but he only subconsciously spoke up at the beginning, and then suddenly quieted down, not letting the chaos continue to expand.
After a breath, Gu Juan was already standing next to the excavated pit.
He looked down at the green silk scalp that emerged from the bottom of the pit, glanced back at Ji Yunbao, who was also surprised, and said with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth, "Ji Gongzi, what's going on, why is there a corpse buried in the courtyard of your study that has not completely decomposed?"
Ji Yunbao's face suddenly turned pale, and he immediately knelt on the ground, exhaled a heavy breath and said, "Back to the prince's words, Xia Guan, Xia Guan doesn't know what is going on." ”
"I don't know...... Do you really not know or dare not say it explicitly? Although the things inside this wealthy family are all lofty and noble when viewed from the outside of the courtyard wall, after actually entering the inside, how many of them are not ghostly and resentful?"
"I didn't have the heart to take care of these dirty things, and I didn't bother to take care of them, but now that your family is involved in an anecdote incident, and it is a strange incident in the capital, this is slapping me in the face, snapping, and forcing me to take care of it...... As for whether the filth and filth hidden in your home will be dug up later, whether you will fall into the dust and ruin your family, to be honest, I don't care, and I don't care. ”
As soon as Gu Juan waved his hand, the seven warriors who were originally guarding outside the courtyard rushed in, leaving one person to guard Su Mu and Xu Dingbian, and the remaining six people hulala surrounded him, blocking all the ways of Ji Yunbao and the housekeeper of the Guogong Mansion.
"Keep digging and dig out everything in it for me. ”
A quarter of an hour later, more than twenty bodies were lifted out of the ground and laid out in a row in the courtyard.
These people are men and women, and they are not very old, it is worth noting that there are four male corpses wearing the same clothes as the family members who have just dug the pit, and if there are no other more convincing clues, then it can already be concluded that these people are the family members of the Lingguo Mansion.
As for the other corpses, they were dressed in different ways, but what they all had in common was that they were all yellow-skinned and thin, and they looked like they had become after a long period of malnutrition, hunger and cold.
Therefore, there were four family members among these corpses, and the rest should be beggars in the city, or victims of the disaster who had no fixed place to live and lacked food and clothing.
"Ji Yunbao, what else do you want to say to me now?"
"Back to the prince's words, Xia Guan really doesn't know what is going on. Ji Yunbao kowtowed repeatedly, and after a while, he suddenly raised his head, stared at the pale housekeeper who was kneeling beside him and said, "This, you are honest, what is going on!?"
The housekeeper suddenly calmed down, kowtowed respectfully to Ji Yunbao, and said in a tone without the slightest fluctuation, "Young master, this matter is all done by the old slave...... It has nothing to do with other people. ”
"After the old man was sick that day, the old slave was so anxious that he couldn't replace him with his body, and then he accidentally discovered a way to continue his life by sacrificing human blood and stealing the sky for the sun, so he secretly deceived these people from outside into this place, and then killed people and bleed, and made the blood sacrifice to continue life. ”
In the end, in order to keep it a secret, the old slave killed several subordinates who had completed the matter together at the banquet and buried them here. ”
"You ......" Ji Yunbao was angry and afraid, he couldn't say a word, and the whole person seemed to be drained of his strength in an instant, and he collapsed directly on the cold ground.
The housekeeper slowly finished saying all this, kowtowed again, and finally said to Gu Ju with five bodies, "The villain knows that he is guilty of a deep sin and cannot be made up, so he can only kill people to pay for his life, and let the prince cut it with a thousand knives, and he does not dare to have the slightest complaint." ”
Gu Juan was noncommittal and silent.
He had already checked all the corpses at this time, and then caught the ugly dog that had just flown out of the bottom of the pit and looked at it for a moment, then suddenly sighed and said, "Old butler, I believe that you have something to do with this evil and strange magic circle, but the truth of the truth should be very different from what you said...... In other words, it's that your ability to make up stories is a little worse, so don't blame me for not believing it, in fact, if you change someone, you won't believe it. ”
Then he turned around and called Su Mu over, "What do you think about this matter?"
"Back to the prince's words, the blood in these corpses has been drained, and there are strange lines and lines at the bottom of the pit, and the little woman thinks that someone here has indeed performed the evil method of human sacrifice. ”
"Then what do you think, who laid the magic circle and cast the evil spell?"
Su Mu took a deep breath, and under Gu Ju's cold gaze, he involuntarily opened his mouth and said in a trembling voice, "Yes, in the eyes of the little woman, it should be Ling Guogong himself......"
"Oh?" he smiled faintly, but when he spoke, he didn't smile, "You little girl looks okay, but her heart is vicious, and in the absence of more specific clues, did you start throwing all the basins on Ling Guogong's head with white teeth?"
As he spoke, he unfolded the page of the ugly dog in front of Su Mu's eyes, in which rows of slender and small fingerprints were clearly visible, and then grabbed her hands without warning and pressed them heavily on the blank page next to him.
After a few breaths, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Can you explain to me why these corpses have your fingerprints on them?"
"It seems that you don't quite understand what these fingerprints mean, but it doesn't affect the overall situation, you just need to know that this dog I have has the ability to collect fingerprints. ”
"Lord Wang......" She wanted to say something more, but suddenly found that she couldn't say a word, and her body was instantly drenched in cold sweat, and she was almost frozen by the wind, like an ice cellar.
After a suffocating period of silence, Gu Juan finally spoke again, "I've seen those rune lines before, have you forgotten that you have had contact with the bee girl for a while, or do you not know that by that bee girl's side, there has always been a revenant named Qiushui by her side, and she knows everything about what the bee girl has done?"
"So this should have been a set of magic circles left by the bee girl to attract spirits into the body, but why did it end up becoming an evil method that uses human flesh and blood as a guide and the true spirit of the gods and souls as sacrifices, I hope I can get a reasonable explanation from you. ”
Su Mu's face turned pale at this moment, and he muttered to himself, "This is God's will, and I am just following God's commands." ”
"God's will, where is God? Does it dare to show its head in front of me now? In my opinion, it's a bullshit god...... Have you been bewitched by that beast and become an idiot controlled by it? ”
"No, it's not like that, that flower snake is indeed a demon, and the real god has always wanted to get rid of this demon, so he entrusted his dream to my grandfather and me, so that we can lay out a formation and do that thing of killing demons and eliminating demons. ”
"The god you are talking about is actually the fairy wind bone, the yellow-haired fox. ”
