Su Tingyu approached the corpse, and after careful sniffing and argumentation, he testified for his sister: "Indeed, there is no smell of the seven souls in this Qingtang wizard's corpse."

The native Huang Taoist was amazed and guessed: "I heard that the wizards in Qingtang have a lot of strange spells. This person thinks that he can't escape, so he simply commits suicide and turns into a ghost, throws his body away, and uses So let's get out of his hunt?"

Qin Shaoyou circled around the corpse of the Qingtang wizard, looked at the situation in the house again, and pondered:

"I can't rule out this possibility. Look at this Qingtang wizard, he clearly stabbed his own heart with a knife, but not only did he not have a painful expression on his face, but a strange smile appeared on his face, as if he had been relieved. .

There is also a couple of butchers who died in this room. They seem to be embracing each other, but if you look closely, you can see that the posture of their embrace is not natural, but more artificial.

In addition, in this room, there are witchcraft and magic circles drawn with blood and secret medicine. Before, I thought that these magic spells and magic circles were used by this Qingtang wizard to activate the life-suppressing spell, causing the corpse to attack Dongchuan. Hou Shizi's. Now think about it, will it be used to help him retain his soul and memory and turn into a ghost? "

Qin Qiaoer followed Qin Shaoyou's words and analyzed: "If this Qingtang wizard really wants to become a ghost and get out of trouble, then he is probably still hiding in Qingtang Weicheng. In the past few days, I have carefully observed Qingtang. Tangwei City, on the city walls, city gates and other places, are equipped with magic circles. Once a ghost wants to pass through, not only will they warn you, but they will also block them. However, from the sudden death of Zhang Hu, Zhao Long, and Wang Han to the present , I haven't heard the news that there are ghosts trying to break out of the city from the city walls, city gates, etc."

"Anyway, this is the direction of an investigation."

Qin Shaoyou immediately made arrangements for Cui Youkui, Su Jianqing, Su Tingyu, Tuhuang, Qiu Shi, the Taoist priests of the Jade Emperor Temple, to search for ghosts in Qingtang Acropolis.

And he himself planned to use his eyesight and wonderful nose to search carefully in the city.

As for the other people, they continued to go to the yamen at all levels, and acted according to the previously discussed plan, hiding the talismans, Gu insects and paper figurines, and paralyzing Dongchuanhou.

After all, no one knows where the ghosts of the Qingtang wizards are hidden, maybe it is on the yamen and officials at all levels of Qingtangwei.

Just when Qin Shaoyou and the others discussed the action plan, Ma Chao also rushed over and conveyed the reprimands and orders of Marquis Dongchuan to them.

After finishing, Ma Chao also helped Dongchuanhou to explain a few words: "Please forgive me, my lord, our lord is in the pain of losing his son, and his temper is inevitably a little grumpy, but this eucalyptus, I also ask you lord You can use snacks, otherwise in the end, it will hurt the harmony between Zhen Yaosi and our Qingtang Guards, and it will be bad."

Yo, Dongchuan Hou Shizi is definitely dead, and has begun to spread the news around?

It seems that Dongchuanhou's last move should be revealed soon.

Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiao'er looked at each other, the latter handed over and said, "Please tell General Ma to tell the Marquis that we are currently suspecting that the reason why this Qingtang wizard committed suicide is probably to use his death to get rid of our search and escape as a ghost. We are going to hunt down his ghost in the city to avenge the little Marquis. It's just that we don't have many people, and the Monster Suppression Division here in Qingtangwei has suffered heavy casualties recently and cannot provide us with support. We also ask Dongchuan Marquis. Can dispatch some soldiers to us to assist in the investigation."

Ma Chao was stunned when he heard the words.

Suicide ghosts to get out of the investigation? Are your brains too big, or is this Qingtang wizard too cruel?

That is to say, Zhu Xiucai didn't hear what he was thinking, otherwise he would definitely add a sentence in his heart with a sneer: What is this? Don't you know that there are still people who expect us to commit suicide every day so that we can jump to work at his place.

Although Ma Chao was surprised, he still helped them bring these words to the Duke of Dongchuan.

After hearing this, Hou Dongchuan frowned slightly, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Although Ma Chaoxin was curious, he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just stood quietly and waited for him to lecture.

After a while, Marquis Dongchuan opened his mouth and let Ma Chao take his warrant to dispatch a centennial team to assist the red-clothed messenger to find the Qingtang wizard who had turned into a ghost and hid.

After Ma Chao left, Dongchuan Hou narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself:

"Suicide into a ghost to avoid pursuit? With the weirdness of the Qingtang wizard, this kind of thing is not impossible.

By the way, could the spirit that broke into the mansion before was this Qingtang wizard who committed suicide?

He deliberately left the aura of the Black Lotus Sect, trying to lead me to make a mistake, thinking that the demon of the Black Lotus Sect wanted to do something, so as to muddy the water so that he could get out of the mess?

No wonder my people, although they caught a few monsters from the Black Lotus Sect, they didn't find anyone who was injured. It turns out that something went wrong at the root, because what we are looking for is not a person at all, but a ghost?

That's right, he took my blood, and he just wanted to use my blood to cover up the ghost in him, so as to hide from exploration and pursuit..."

The more Dongchuanhou thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.

"What a cunning wizard~lightnovelpub.net~ almost deceived me. It's a pity that Qingtang sent you to be a dead man. It's just that the magic is one foot high, the road is ten feet high, your tricks, I finally figured it out.”

The Marquis of Dongchuan originally wanted to send more people to find out the Qingtang wizard who had turned into a ghost, but after thinking about it, he gave up the idea.

"Let the red-clothed messengers find them first. If they can't find them, I'll go out and teach them a lesson. But these days, people have to pay close attention to the city walls and gates, and they can't let any demons come in and out. …”

After Dongchuanhou made up his mind, he immediately summoned a personal soldier, and asked him to take his warrant to convey to the troops on duty at the city gate and city wall, ordering them to be extremely energetic, and at the same time to give a few of his hands. A strong general was sent to assist the guard.

When the Dongchuan Marquis dispatched troops, Qin Shaoyou and the others were not idle either. He led the 100 soldiers assigned to them by Dongchuan Marquis, divided them into several teams, and searched around the city by means of supernatural objects and soul-searching spells. .

However the results were disappointing.

Qin Shaoyou and the others were busy until late at night. Except for the lonely and wild ghosts who died because of military disasters and lingering in the world, they did not find any ghosts and evil spirits, nor did they trace the soul of the Qingtang wizard.

These lonely ghosts were all overtaken by the Taoist priest of the Jade Emperor Temple, and there was no abnormality.

Qin Shaoyou originally wanted to stay up all night to hunt down and find the ghost of the Qingtang wizard, lest it hurt ordinary people.

As a result, while searching, Qin Qiaoer sent a red-clothed messenger to look for him and brought him a message:

"Xue Xiaobao's senior brother found the inn, and brought a new guess and direction to this eucalyptus. Maybe we guessed that the Qingtang wizard escaped by turning into a ghost, which is wrong..."
