Chapter 17

Chen Cuo was led by Chen Hai and went outside the firewood house.

He had just walked all the way, and the closer he got, the more dignified the atmosphere became, and there were fewer and fewer people around. In the end, the servants could not be seen at all, they were all nursing homes.

"People were originally locked inside." Chen Hai pointed to the room and lowered his voice, "As soon as I heard the news, my subordinates volunteered to inform you, and then the old lady gave an order, saying that the news could not be passed on."

Chen Cuo praised a few words, and then asked about the situation: "With so many guards, can he be allowed to run away?"

"The villain just asked about it," Chen Hai had a bright face, "Before the guard was very strict, and there were people guarding the house, but the guard said that he fell asleep for some reason, and when he woke up, people were stunned. It's gone! When the others saw the person running away, they immediately blocked the surrounding area and searched carefully. I heard that the old lady was so angry that she even turned over the flower bed on the side, but no one was found!"

Chen Cuo felt a sudden shock, and immediately asked, "The person who was guarding inside fell asleep for no reason?"

"That's what that person said, but the old lady felt that this statement was just self-defense, and no one believed it." Chen Hai explained.

Chen Cuo took a deep breath, realizing that the sudden falling asleep was probably related to the evil ghost, so he couldn't help but speed up and entered the room directly.

Once inside, the atmosphere became even more depressing.

Chen Cuo took a closer look and saw that Mother Chen was standing in the middle of the room with the help of her maid.There were several people kneeling in front of her, all of them arguing and begging.

Afterwards, his eyes wandered and swept across the room, and saw that the furnishings and displays in the room were all intact, there were no signs of fighting, the doors and windows were all tightly closed, and there were not many traces on the edges.

Chen Cuo is not a detective, but because of his preconceived ideas, he has experienced the incident of evil spirits, and with Zhou Youzi's suggestion, now looking at the situation in this house, he can't help but deviate in this direction.

"The house is so closed, guarded inside and out, and people still run away. It's a bit unreasonable."

He thought about the scene where the man was beaten to pieces and repented in front of Mother Chen, but he didn't think he had such ability.

"This matter has been strange from the very beginning. The thief said that he came back from the tea shop, he was confused, confused, and when he woke up, he realized that he was a thief. , it seems to make sense, after all, that person went to the tea shop and may have listened to the "Painted Skin" song!"

Thinking like this, he couldn't help but get a big head.

That medicinal pill was what he wanted, according to the half-hearted Taoist, he and the evil ghost had the same mind, and what he wanted was not what the evil ghost wanted?
But, if that person was taken captive by evil spirits, where would he go?How can evil spirits make people disappear out of thin air?This method is terrifying, and it is impossible to guard against it!
And that "Painted Skin", is it really the root of all evil?
"Well, when the Taoist priest comes, I have to ask him for advice."

Mother Chen was reprimanding a few people, and when she saw Chen miss coming, she frowned and said, "Where is Mr. Zhou?"

Chen Cuo replied, "I'll be there soon."

Mother Chen nodded, followed by thinking of something, and said, "Listen to what Mr. means, your article has caused a wave in the city?"

As soon as he said this, Chen Cuo had a headache and thought to himself, what is this trend?

"Well, not bad." Mother Chen nodded.

Chen Cuo couldn't help but be astonished.

In the memory fragments, the predecessor Chen Fangqing was not praised much by his mother, but when he heard the word "good", his body became instinctively excited.

However, then Mother Chen said again: "What did the gentleman say to you, I will explain them one by one later." There was an irrefutable majesty in the tone, and without waiting for Chen Cuo's response, she continued to reprimand the few people in front of her.

Chen Cuo nodded silently, thinking in his heart, the person is still the same person, not controlled by evil spirits.

Soon, there was a sound outside the door, and Zhou Youzi finally arrived.

Mother Chen hurried forward and explained the situation in detail. It was similar to Chen Hai's description, with a little more detail. After talking about the situation, she apologized again and again, and finally asked euphemistically if there was any magic to find the thief.

Zhou Youzi did not shirk, and said, "Please ask the old lady to order someone to prepare a basin of clear water, which should be filled in a copper basin, and then bring a rooster over." He did not explain much.

Mother Chen couldn't help but ask, but Zhou Youzi just shook his head and said, "It's inconvenient to talk to ordinary people."

Mother Chen had to give up.

On the contrary, Chen Cuo was worried about the evil ghost, and asked, "Master, is there something else hidden in this matter?"

As soon as Chen mother saw it, she would reprimand, thinking that the Taoist priest was inconvenient to say it, and she had nothing to do with it. You still ask, isn't it fun to ask for it?

Unexpectedly, Zhou Youzi said, "I'm not sure yet. I'll talk to you after Pindao's investigation."

Chen Cuo nodded.

Mother Chen's reprimands choked in her throat, and she looked at the two with doubts in her eyes.

At this time, Zhou Youzi looked at Chen's mother, the latter woke up like a dream, and gave an order to let people prepare things.

In a short time, the copper basin of water and the big rooster were ready and sent to the Taoist.

After Zhou Youzi checked, he said to Mother Chen, "Please move the old lady and Junhou first, so that the poor can cast spells."

Mother Chen first asked if she wanted to leave one or two people to help, but Zhou Youzi refused, and said, "There is a long way to go." Her face was full of urgency, but she was kind, and with a wave, she led the crowd out, waiting anxiously outside.

Zhou Youzi closed the doors and windows of the house.

Chen Cuo was curious and took two steps closer, but was stopped by Chen's mother with her eyes, so she had to stand on the spot and observe.

The room was quiet, and there was no sound.

Just when he thought that he could see nothing out of the ordinary, there was a "hum" in his mind, and a whisper flashed across his ear, as if someone was screaming and shouting.

Chen Cuo was so nervous that he had to listen carefully, but was interrupted by Mother Chen's voice——

"What did you just chat with Mr.?"

This interruption, Chen Cuo wanted to listen carefully, but there was no trace, so he had to sigh secretly. As for Chen's mother's inquiry, he remembered Zhou Youzi's advice and said perfunctory: "Nothing..." Suddenly, his eyes widened. Turning around, "It is related to Mo He. The Taoist priest said that since the medicinal pill was damaged, then Mo He..."

"Let's not talk about this." Mother Chen waved her hand, as Chen Cuo expected, and took the initiative to end the topic.

Chen Cuo dealt with it as he wished, but he was still unhappy. After all, his partiality was so obvious that he didn't bother to pretend!
Ding Ding Ding!
At this moment, there was finally some movement in the house, which attracted the minds of the mother and everyone, but the sound came suddenly and went away quickly, and there was no sound again.

Immediately afterwards, the door of the room opened with a creak, and Zhou Youzi stepped out, without waiting for Chen's mother to ask, and said, "People run far away, and they won't be able to find them for a while, and poor Daoists are helpless."

Mother Chen was stunned for a moment, and reluctantly asked about the details, Zhou Youzi shook his head.

"There are endless techniques, and everything in the world is difficult to do. Old lady, there are some things that cannot be forced."

Mother Chen sighed, and then gave up, but how could the resentment in her heart be quelled?So he waved his hand, and said fiercely: "The evil slave has stolen the master's property, and he dares to flee in fear of crime! He is a slave, but he betrays his righteousness and is not allowed to be in the sky! Chen He, go to the government quickly and list this person. For a fugitive slave! Let the government issue an arrest warrant, and he must be brought to justice!"

"Here!" Chen He was unequivocal, turned around and ordered.

Seeing this, Zhou Youzi hesitated to speak, and finally shook his head without saying anything.

Chen Cuo noticed this detail, and thought, could there be hidden feelings?Immediately, he glanced into the room and saw that the rooster was still jumping and jumping in the open space, but the basin of clear water had turned blood red.

"Good guy, what's the use of this? It's supposed to be blood, right? Why is this cock still alive and kicking?"

He was wondering here, but Zhou Youzi had already retired and said he was going to rest for a while.

Mother Chen saw the Taoist's face pale, only because of the spellcasting, and immediately ordered the Taoist to go back, and let him prepare meals, melons and fruits.

Chen Cuo deliberately asked Zhou Youzi about a thing or two, but there were many people around, so he had to endure for the time being, thinking that it would not be too late to go again later.

As a result, after Chen's mother reprimanded everyone on the left, she did not let Chen Cuo leave on the right, and asked him to wait in the backyard first, and she had something to ask.

Chen Cuo was helpless and had to lead the order to the backyard.

When he sat down, bored and bored, there was a sudden drowsiness.In the face of evil spirits before, he was emotionally ups and downs, quite a bit of overdraft. Now that he will be idle, he will be unbearable and tired.

Chen Cuoduo didn't resist, and planned to take a nap.

After all, there is still a broken medicine pill in Mengze, waiting for him to check!

In a daze, I entered the vast dream.

As soon as Chen Cuo's figure appeared, he took a step forward and hurriedly searched for medicinal pills. After two steps, he stopped abruptly and looked forward with a look of surprise—

A face mask is suspended in the air, its color is blue and purple.

 There is one more update in the evening, ask for a recommendation!Passing spectators, please collect it!
