Chapter 3

The moment the dead man opened his eyes, he exhaled a breath and rolled towards Huo Qubing.

At the same time, Huo Qubing sensed the brief script of Consciousness Sea, and unfolded part of the content by himself. The ancient characters faded, and the words 'Shiyi Fateng Snake' appeared!

In the five wisps of breath that merged into the slips in the well, the hazy big snake imprinted on the slips suddenly broke away from the slips, its color precipitated, and it was as black as cast iron, as if it was about to rush out of consciousness.

The big snake coils its tail around the edge of the well below the bamboo slips, its neck is raised, and its eyes are sharp, as if it can see through people's hearts.

The other four breathing rhythms in the brief book seemed to have something to come out, but they failed after all.

Only the big snake appeared, and had a wonderful connection with Huo Qubing.

He felt his head lighten, as if something had left his body, and the process was similar to the out-of-body experience in Taoist legends.

Then the big snake melted from between his brows and came into reality, becoming a blurred snake-shaped silhouette with flying wings, which directly merged into the void.

He could clearly feel his consciousness spreading like an ocean, covering the entire Beijun Lieutenant's Mansion within his perception.

His spirit climbs endlessly, as if breaking free from the framework of the real world, sublimating to another dimension, 'touching' something beyond reality.

If the Northern Army Lieutenant's Mansion is compared to a battlefield, then Huo Qubing is clearly in control of everything on this battlefield right now.

Even fluctuations at the soul level cannot escape his insight!

In his consciousness, he 'saw' a room in which a woman was hiding an urn-like utensil in a secret place under the couch.

"what!"

The woman was overwhelmed by Huo Qubing's consciousness, and suddenly let out a low cry of horror, panicked.

"The snake in the brief book has flying wings, and it is the soaring snake in mythology. It can not only improve my spiritual power, gain insight into perception, but also cause the deepest fear and mental collapse of fixed targets within the range... This is Similar to the fear projection in western legends, or is it an additional effect that is naturally brought about by the flying snake?"

Huo Qubing secretly guessed.

The change in his consciousness is just a moment of thought.

From the perspective of other people in the room, the corpse let out a breath after opening its eyes, but it dissipated on its own when it approached Huo Qubing.

Huo Qubing remained calm the whole time, without even blinking.

The flying snake is out of the body, and the onlookers can't see it at all, which is a kind of ideological transformation.

"Is Huo Shizhong okay?" Several people asked in unison.

"It's okay."

Huo Qubing responded without further explanation.

His consciousness retracted, and the Soaring Snake had returned to the depths of the Sea of ​​Consciousness, turned into a brand mark again, and landed on a slip of the book of war.

The snake went out suddenly, obviously affected by the opening of the corpse's eyes.

So the perceived woman is related to the accident of this corpse?
"When things here are over, go back and study what's going on with the Jianshu and Gujing." Huo Qubing thought to himself, and reached out to touch the dead body's eyebrows.

"Be careful……"

Yao Zhao, the young general who came with him, has been following him and reminded.

"The dead open their eyes... Is this the resurrection technique of the military family?"

Resurrecting the soul from a dead body is a kind of military strategy, but in the practice of military strategists, some military strategies can derive corresponding supernatural powers.

Resurrecting corpses can bring corpses back to life for a short time.

Legend has it that a master of military strategist can even divide his consciousness, live in a corpse, and reverse yin and yang.

The 36 Strategies of Military Strategies originally originated from the Southern and Northern Dynasties, but in the earlier period, it was not without related military strategies. Many strategies were widely used as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but they failed to form a complete system.

"This is not resurrecting the dead."

The hair growing from the corpse stopped moving after Huo Qubing's hand touched the center of his eyebrows, and then turned into a faint black gas, disappeared, and his eyes closed again.

Huo Qubing put his hands back and stood up: "After the death of the lieutenant of the Northern Army, did the person who first discovered him conduct an interrogation?"

"Back to Shizhong Huo, it's a maid in the mansion. We asked carefully and found no problem." It was Qu Jun who answered.

He is an expert in investigating and detecting all kinds of conspiracies.

Liu Huai died, and when he came, he sealed off the inside and outside of the mansion, strictly prohibited entry and exit, and joined Yue Rao sent by the hidden guard, who was the head of the house.The two teamed up to investigate the corpse, asked the people in the mansion about their past, and made it clear what they were supposed to do.

Qu Jun responded to Huo Qubing, saying that he had checked and found that there was no problem, which also proved that he was not an idiot.

"How about the rest of the house?"

"There are more than [-] servants and maidservants in the inner house, all of whom were questioned by special personnel, but they were also not found."

"Before and after Lieutenant Liu's death, were there any other doubts?"

"Yes, counting Officer Liu, four people have died in strange ways in the city, but the cause of death has not been found for all of them.

And every time before and after someone dies, there are people in the city who can receive the news in advance. After questioning, these people all say that the deceased deserves to die, but when asked why they know that the deceased will die, they all look puzzled and don't know why they know. It's like forgetting the source.

This happened one after another, causing quite a panic in the city..."

While talking, Qu Jun exchanged glances with Yue Rao beside him.

Judging from the questions and answers, it was obvious that Huo Shizhong didn't have much experience in handling cases, and he didn't know much about the case. He asked them only basic questions.

They scouted the scene carefully, not missing every detail.

All the people in the mansion even conducted investigations with special means, but they were never found.

This is where things get weird.

At this time, the two of them were worried again, they were afraid that this servant Huo would do nothing, and when he reported to His Majesty, he would push the responsibility away and let them take the blame.

"You didn't find the cause of death?"

Huo Qubing turned his head slowly, and looked out of the room through the window: "In the backyard of the mansion, about fifteen feet away, there is a 40-year-old woman with a mole on her left cheek and a swallow-shaped bun. bring it here.

There is also a secret compartment under her couch...the things in it must be taken. "

Qu Jun and Yue Rao were stunned. From what they said, Huo Shizhong obviously found a clue, or did he have a suspect?
What's weird is that he not only explained the other person's appearance and characteristics clearly, but also knew what was hidden under the other's couch?
Qu Jun and Yue Rao were full of doubts and followed Huo Qubing's gaze.

The window was closed tightly, so I couldn't see what was going on outside... What kind of mystery was this servant Huo playing, the two of them murmured to themselves, but they didn't dare to be negligent on the surface.

To show his importance, Qu Jun went out of the room himself and led people to the location Huo Qubing said.

boom!
A certain room in the back house of the lieutenant's mansion of the Northern Army was pushed away by ferocious soldiers.

Qu Jun walked in with his brows furrowed, his heart skipped a beat immediately.

On the couch in the room, sat a pale woman who seemed to have just been frightened.

When Qu Jun's eyes fell on her left cheek, he saw a small mole, and the swallow-shaped high temples were combed behind her head, just like what Huo Shizhong had described.

Qu Jun strode to the side of the couch.

The woman pretended to be calm, and said angrily: "What are you doing? You trespassed on the women's room in the inner house, so you know my identity?"

Qu Jun didn't answer, and let his subordinates control the woman. He bent down and put his head down, observed under the couch for a while, then reached out and patted a square brick on the ground.

He used a dark force, and the square brick seemed to be glued to his hand, and he lifted it from the ground, revealing a hidden compartment under the brick.

There is also a small clay pot in the dark compartment.

Qu Jun was almost stunned: How did Huo Shizhong find out that there was something wrong with this woman?
 At this stage, it is roughly at noon, and at six or seven o'clock in the evening.Ask for tickets
