Six Ways of Fumo

Chapter 99 Portrait
"Good sword!" Everyone was taken aback, and after realizing it, they cheered in unison.

Ding Ermiao took off the umbrella from his back and put the sword back into its sheath. His face was ashen and his eyes were filled with cold light.

Xie Caiwei noticed Ding Ermiao's abnormal expression, walked over and asked with concern: "Ermiao, your face looks so ugly, are you... uncomfortable?"

In the past, Ding Ermiao was always smiling, but now she has a gloomy look on her face, which is really surprising.

Ding Ermiao shook his head, stared at the door panel in front of him, and said slowly: "I'm fine. This room is extremely evil. Everyone, follow me and come in slowly."

After that, Ding Ermiao kicked open the door with her foot, held an umbrella in her hand, and walked in slowly.Seeing how cautious Ding Ermiao was, everyone felt terrified and slowly followed in.

There is nothing in the room, and the eyes are everywhere, and it is clear at a glance.There was only a rotten musty smell that irritated everyone's noses.There is a wing room in the east and west, and the door is closed.There is also a back door, which is also bolted, so there is no view of the backyard.

Ding Ermiao walked to the west door, listened carefully, and then used Ten Thousand Chops to open the door. There was no one in the room.

After checking the west room, Ding Ermiao came to the door of the east room.In front of the door, Ding Ermiao looked carefully and found that the room was not locked, but only ajar.

Pushing open the door, Ding Ermiao walked in first.

It seemed that a sinister gaze was directed towards him, and Ding Ermiao couldn't help but feel terrified. He drew his sword in his hand with a clang!
After calming down and taking a closer look, this gaze actually came from a painting on the opposite gable wall.

This is a portrait, a very clear and realistic portrait of a character, and it is also a weird, bloody, and terrifying portrait.

The portrait shows a bloody man, a man whose skin has been flayed.The exposed brown muscles, white fat, cyan blood vessels, and dew-like blood seeping out were all so clear that it made people shudder.

Judging from the resentful and sinister eyes, it must be a woman.The eyes were made of black opal, inlaid in the eye sockets on the painting, so as soon as he entered the door, Ding Ermiao also had the illusion that someone was staring at him.

Everyone trembled when they saw this painting.Although Lin Xiruo was bold, she didn't dare to look more. After taking a quick glance, she immediately turned her head.

In this room, there are also furniture such as a bed and a table.But judging from the dust on the bed, it had not been occupied for a long time.On the table, there are also several talisman papers, several wine glasses, as well as incense burners, incense candles, etc.

The ground was speckled with some blood.

It seems that this room is where Zhong Haoran practices.

Maybe he left in a hurry and didn't have time to clean up the casting site.Perhaps, he didn't take Ding Ermiao seriously at all, thinking that there was no need to clean up the scene.

Lin Xiruo knelt down, dipped a little blood with her finger, rubbed it, put it to her nose, smelled it, and said, "Fresh blood, the person just left."

Ding Ermiao nodded, looked around for a long time, raised his sword to cut off the portrait on the wall, lit it on fire and burned it, then stepped out and said: "There is something weird in the backyard!"

Li Weinian was standing by the back door. When he heard this, he immediately unlatched the back door and opened the back door.

"咿~~~~咿...!"

A horrifying ghost scream suddenly sounded in the backyard, making people's hair stand on end and their whole body numb.Accompanied by this ghostly scream, in full view of everyone, a figure wearing a white gauze skirt stood half-covered and half-exposed behind a peach tree.

Looking at the back, she is Xie Caiwei, exactly!
"Get out of the way!" Ding Ermiao rushed to the back door and held it, blocking everyone behind him.

At this moment, the female ghost behind the peach tree suddenly turned around!

"what--!"

When they saw the female ghost's face clearly, Lin Xiruo, Xie Caiwei, and Wan Shugao shouted at the same time!Even Li Weinian was so frightened that he stepped back.

The female ghost has eyes, a nose, and a mouth.

But she has no skin.

Her facial muscles were exposed to the air and turned scarlet!
Exactly the same as the portrait just now! !

"Death, evildoer!" Ding Ermiao shouted, three copper coins flew out from his left hand, and with his right hand, he stepped forward.

But as soon as he moved, the female ghost became short and disappeared in front of everyone.The three copper coins fell into the air together and hit the wall of the backyard, clanging.

There was an exclamation from behind, and Ding Ermiao turned his head to look, only to see Xie Guoren's face turned pale and he fell into the arms of the bodyguard.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Xie Caiwei was shocked and rushed forward to ask.

Xie Guoren waved his hand, managed to stabilize his body, shook his head and said, "No, it's nothing... just frightened..."

Ding Ermiao also walked over and took a look. It was indeed nothing. He was just too nervous.

"Is the person in the backyard just now a human or a ghost, or am I just blinding myself? Why..., her back...?" Although Lin Xiruo is a police officer, she was also frightened by the ghostly screams and shadows just now. His face was heavy and he had already pulled out the pistol from his waist.

There have been a series of murders recently, if Lin Xi dare not neglect, he usually carries a pistol when performing tasks.

"It's a ghost, an evil ghost." Ding Ermiao interrupted Lin Xiruo.

Everyone saw just now that the female ghost's back was exactly the same as Xie Caiwei's.Ding Ermiao had a vague premonition in her heart, and even began to regret that she shouldn't have brought Xie Caiwei here.

"Er Miao, didn't you notice that the ghost just now... looks a bit like my back?" Xie Caiwei also noticed this herself and asked first.

Ding Ermiao turned around and forced a smile: "Sister Caiwei, you have a standard figure. Most slim beauties have a figure similar to yours. Don't think too much about it."

Xie Caiwei was dubious, but didn't feel comfortable asking further, so she silently followed the others to the backyard.

The backyard is quite large, about an acre of land.It is surrounded by a two-meter-high red brick wall covered with moss.The ground is covered with weeds, submerging the feet.

There are only five trees in the yard, all of which are all peach trees, arranged in irregular shapes, with lush branches and leaves, full of vitality, and the crowns of the trees are connected, blocking the sky in the entire backyard.

Although the sun was scorching, the backyard still looked gloomy because of the cover of the peach trees.

"Brother Ermiao, since the peach tree is a thing that suppresses evil, why are there still ghosts here?" Wan Shugao asked humbly.

Ding Ermiao looked down at the small compass on the umbrella handle and said: "In the past, there was a saying about peach blossoms, which refers to the evil spirit of peach trees and the beauty of peach blossoms. The peach trees facing the sun can absorb the yin energy when the yin energy is exposed to the sun. However, the peach trees in the shade are things that gather shade. Xiaogezhuang is originally on the shady side of the mountain, and these five peach trees are also planted in the backyard. Therefore, they are not used to suppress evil spirits, but to gather them. Cold."

"I see, brother Ermiao, I have learned another trick." Wan Shugao kept flattering, with a flattering look on his face.

However, Xie Guoren, who had always been very interested in Feng Shui layouts, now his eyes were wandering and his whole body was trembling. With the support of the bodyguard, he still looked frightened and seemed to be overwhelmed.

Ding Ermiao stared at the compass for a while, then looked around, and then walked slowly back and forth between the five peach trees.Everyone didn't know what he was doing, and they didn't dare to ask, they all looked at him stupidly.

After walking about three times, Ding Ermiao stopped and took out a roll of red thread from his backpack.He tied one end of the red thread to a peach tree in the east, then pulled the thread and walked a few more times.

The red lines criss-crossed the five peach trees. After several repetitions, a pentagonal pattern composed of red lines appeared in everyone's eyes.

"It's here." Ding Ermiao used thousands of people to cut in the middle of the pentagon, drew a circle as big as a hotel round table, closed the red line, and said to Lin Xiruo and Li Weinian: "There is a corpse buried in the ground. We need to dig it up." Come up."

Li Weinian took out the engineer shovel: "Let me do it!"

"This corpse is buried deep, three feet and three inches underground. Your thing is like a cooking spatula. How long will it take to dig it out?"

Ding Ermiao waved his hand to stop Li Weinian, and then said to Lin Xiruo: "Sister, go to the farmers here and borrow some big shovels. Let's do it together. We need to be faster."

If Lin Xi were a police officer, wouldn't it be trivial to borrow a few shovels as soon as he showed his police officer ID?If it were someone else who borrowed it, it would be hard to tell. The villagers don't know what you do, so they may not necessarily lend it to you. ——What if you borrowed someone else's shovel and dug up the treasure in their village?
"Okay, I'll go find the village cadre." Lin Xiruo nodded, walked through the main hall and headed to the west end of the village.
