Chapter 84 The corpse of the maid, the ghost spirit leaves the body
This surprise is no small matter!

The shadow was blown by the night wind, and its two wide sleeves were still swaying slightly, as if its feet were floating off the ground.

The two took a deep breath.

Then he tightened his grip on the handle of the knife and turned around suddenly to look!

however.

There was no shadow or anyone behind him.

But the shadow reflected by the wooden house was still fluttering strangely.

As if greeting them.

At this moment, the two of them suddenly saw clearly that in the flower garden not far behind them, a tall scarecrow wearing a tattered gown was standing there, looking at them silently.

The tall and thin figure, illuminated by the moonlight, was projected right here.

"Scared me..."

Nightingale stroked her chest with a frightened expression on her face.

Luo Qingfeng stared at the scarecrow carefully. When it was daytime, it seemed that there was no such scarecrow.

Did he not look carefully at the time, or did he find out later?

He stared at the scarecrow carefully for a few more times and found nothing unusual. Then he looked back and looked at the hut in front of him again.

"Squeak..."

Nightingale pushed open the door, pulled out the knife from her waist, and walked in first.

Luo Qingfeng followed closely behind.

The cabin was dark, narrow, and empty, with nothing but dust.

Nightingale whispered: "Are you sure that the maid you saw that day entered here?"

Luo Qingfeng nodded and carefully looked at every corner of the hut.

Suddenly, a gust of night wind blew from the window.

The air was flowing in the room.

He vaguely smelled a familiar smell of orange.

As his mind moved, he immediately concentrated his thoughts, followed the smell and slowly squatted down, looking at the ground.

"what happened?"

Nightingale saw that he looked wrong and quickly squatted down.

Luo Qingfeng looked at the wooden floor on the ground and suddenly inserted the broken knife in his hand into the gap and raised it with force.

"Crack!"

A piece of floorboard was cracked and lifted up.

Luo Qingfeng raised other floors again.

Seeing this, Nightingale quickly used the short knife in her hand to help.

Soon.

A large area of ​​the floor was lifted up, revealing black and damp soil underneath.

Luo Qingfeng pushed aside the soft soil with his hands, and suddenly found an orange that was already dry and rotten underneath!
A small piece of the orange was peeled off, but the other parts were intact.

Seeing this, Nightingale was filled with surprise and confusion: "Orange?"

Luo Qingfeng immediately continued to dig down the soil with his hands, and soon found a wooden board with an iron pull ring on top of it.

Nightingale quickly helped.

"Squeak..."

Luo Qingfeng held the ring and pulled open the wooden board below.

Under the wooden board, a dark cave suddenly appeared.

At this time, a disgusting rotten smell suddenly wafted out of the cave.

"Wow!"

Nightingale took out the fire stick, ignited the sparks, and reached into the cave below.

The dark cave was suddenly illuminated.

When the two of them saw the scene under the cave, they were shocked and horrified!

In the cave, a naked and rotting corpse lay curled up. The corpse's hair was disheveled, its eyes were wide open, and a large piece of flesh on its face had been bitten off. It looked extremely scary. There were many black insects crawling around it. Her body, nose, eyes, and ears were squirming, crawling in and out, looking extremely terrifying...

"vomit--"

Nightingale almost vomited and hurriedly covered her mouth.

Luo Qingfeng stared at her appearance carefully and whispered: "It's the maid named Alian. She was killed here, so her ghost is still there, and you want to lure me here?"

At this moment, the corpse suddenly moved.

The two were startled.

At this time, a colorful venomous snake crawled out from under her body, holding its triangular head high and spitting scarlet snake letters at it.

Nightingale immediately said: "I'm going to inform the others. Maybe there are clues on this body."

Luo Qingfeng put down the board and took another look at the earth-covered orange on the ground, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

The two of them came out of the cabin and took a few deep breaths of fresh air.

Nightingale looked at him and said, "Do you still think there are good demons in this world?"

Luo Qingfeng didn't say anything, but suddenly looked at the flower garden in front and said, "Where's the scarecrow?"

Nightingale's expression changed. She looked up and saw that the scarecrow that was there just now was indeed gone!
"Go! Get out of here!"

Luo Qingfeng immediately pulled her and left quickly.

Both of them clenched the handle of the knife with their other hands, and their whole bodies tensed up to pay attention to everything around them.

After walking out of the flower garden and entering the bamboo forest, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking back, under the moonlight, the lonely hut looked even more eerie and terrifying, while in the flower garden, the scarecrow wearing a wide robe was still missing.

"You go back first, and I'll inform the other demon slayers."

"Be careful."

"Ah."

The two left together and parted ways in the front garden.

Luo Qingfeng was afraid that something might happen to Xiao Tao, so he quickened his pace and returned to Qingzhu Garden.

After entering the room, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the little girl still sleeping soundly on the bed.

Thinking of the scene he just saw and the pretty face he saw that day, his heart became heavier and heavier.

"We must get rid of that devil!"

He thought to himself.

After standing in the room for a while, he went out to wash his hands and face, then returned to the room and sat down on the couch.

After thinking wildly for a while, he continued to concentrate.

It was almost dawn.

He opened his eyes and clearly felt that his auditory perception had become stronger.

"This concentration technique doesn't seem to be difficult."

"Could it be because I have already practiced the skills in that red bead before? The so-called one method that can be used to master all methods, maybe because they are all the skills of the demon clan?"

While I was thinking about it, there was a sudden sound of leaves being stepped on outside.

He put a hand on his waist and stared intently at the window.

"Squeak..."

The window was opened slightly.

Nightingale whispered outside: "Are you asleep?"

Luo Qingfeng relaxed and said, "Not yet. Sister Nightingale, come in."

Nightingale raised her long legs and climbed in from the window.

"The captain praised me and said that I was so awesome that I was able to find the body there. He also rewarded me with five merit points. I didn't reveal it."

"We checked the body. It is indeed the maid named Alian. Her body showed signs of being violated. She was stabbed in the chest, right in the heart. It didn't look like she was killed by a demon..."

"But the scars on her face look like they were torn out by sharp teeth..."

"We found some pollen in her nails, and a toe on her left foot was bitten off..."

When she said this, she looked at someone meaningfully.

Luo Qingfeng said: "What's that look in your eyes? Do you suspect it's me?"

Nightingale shook her head and continued: "After careful inspection and comparison with the previous corpses, we came to the conclusion that her murderer should not be the same one before. In other words, there is more than one murderer in the mansion. , and they are not necessarily all demons." Luo Qingfeng frowned and said: "If so, then this case will become more and more complicated."

Then he added: "Could it be that demon that created the maze?"

Nightingale nodded and said: "It's also possible that our captain thinks so too. So the most important target now is that demon. We are going to..."

"How are you preparing?"

Seeing her hesitate to speak, Luo Qingfeng felt that something was not going well.

Nightingale glanced at him again and said, "We are going to lure the snake out of its hole, and I will be the bait..."

"no!"

Luo Qingfeng immediately rejected it and said seriously: "The escaped demon already knows you, how can it still let you be used as bait?"

Nightingale said: "We found a teammate who can disguise himself and transformed me into the appearance of the little maid in the mansion. The captain said... that I have a good figure and should be able to lure out the demon that killed those little maids. .”

Luo Qingfeng said with a straight face: "I won't do it if I say no, you can't agree!"

Nightingale looked at him and said, "I will be protected by others, so nothing will happen to me. I want to complete the task quickly, and then...rent a house for you."

Luo Qingfeng was silent for a moment and said: "Actually, it's okay not to rent a house. I think it's quite good here. There is food, shelter, and money. From now on, you can come here to find me."

Nightingale's face turned cold and she glared at him and said, "There are also pretty little maids vying to sleep with you, right?"

Luo Qingfeng said seriously: "These are all secondary. It doesn't matter if you have them or not. The main thing is that they are free, including food and accommodation, and... ah..."

Nightingale pinched his arm and said angrily: "You are not allowed to live here!"

Luo Qingfeng said: "Then you are not allowed to be used as bait!"

Nightingale stared at him for a while, then let go of him and said, "Okay, I'll just refuse. Anyway, the captain said, if I'm scared, she'll just pretend."

Luo Qingfeng said: "Does she have a figure like yours? Ah... I just asked..."

Nightingale suddenly pinched him again, squeezing him hard several times with her two nails, and said coldly on her pretty face: "I disappoint you, her breasts are not as big as mine."

Luo Qingfeng: "..."

At this time, Xiao Tao suddenly moved on the bed and uttered something in her sleep.

Outside the window, the night receded and it was almost dawn.

Nightingale let go of him, gave him another warning look, and said, "After the case is over, you will leave with me. You can't stay here. Do you hear me?"

Luo Qingfeng looked confused: "Four days of classes a month, 20 taels of silver."

Nightingale gritted her teeth and said, "I'll give it to you! I'll give it to you... 21 taels a month!"

Luo Qingfeng said: "There is also an independent courtyard, and there is meat to eat every day."

Nightingale said coldly: "I'll give it to you too!"

Luo Qingfeng said: "There is also a little girl to sleep with, help with bathing, warm the quilt, and play with feet..."

Nightingale said: "I...I will strangle you to death!"

After saying that, I was going to pinch him again.

Luo Qingfeng quickly dodged and whispered: "Xiao Tao is about to wake up."

Nightingale glanced at the bed, then quickly flashed out of the window.

At this time, the little maid on the bed slowly opened her eyes, turned her head to look at the couch, and said, "Master, are you up so early? Who was talking just now?"

Luo Qingfeng said: "I am endorsing it."

The little maid said: "But, it seems there is a woman's voice."

Luo Qingfeng said: "This article is a debate between men and women, and the voices of both men and women are mine."

The little maid smiled and said, "That's so fun."

Luo Qingfeng secretly thought: Yes, I think it's too fun too. Sister Nightingale is jealous and wants to spend a lot of money to support me...

However, can this case in the mansion really be completed smoothly?
He did not go out during the day and continued to practice at home.

There was a death in the mansion yesterday, and it was extremely quiet today. Even the grumpy old ladies who liked to gossip rarely spoke anymore.

After dark.

After Luo Qingfeng finished eating, he returned to his room and continued practicing.

At this time, he discovered that his soul and thoughts seemed to be able to condense without falling apart, float without falling, and move up and down as he pleased, just as the book said.

In this case, you can continue to the next step, the Yin Shen leaves the body.

He was a little surprised by how quickly he practiced.

It seems that his soul and mind, perhaps for some reason, have been tempered to be very powerful.

Maybe it's because of those two exercises.

However, he didn't dare to be too anxious.

He decided to practice steadily for one more night and one day, and wait until tomorrow night to try the Yinshen out-of-body experience.

The book says that after the Yin spirit leaves the body, he may see ghosts and unusual things.

He was looking forward to it.

It was a calm night, and Sister Nightingale didn't come to see him again.

Xiao Tao shyly asked him again: "Master, do you want a slave... to serve you?"

Then he asked: "Do you want to play... play somewhere else slave?"

Luo Qingfeng thought that the other thing the little girl was talking about was her soft little hands, but he was not interested, so he refused.

"Go to sleep, I have to get up early to study tomorrow morning."

In fact, he needs to recharge his batteries and prepare to go all out tomorrow night.

The next day, he continued to practice at home.

In the evening, he felt that his soul became stronger and his thoughts gathered together as he pleased.

He ordered Xiao Tao to bring back some sandalwood sticks.

The book says that practicing Yin Shen out-of-body training for the first time is relatively dangerous. It will be better if you have cigarettes to assist you.

Burning sandalwood will also clearly tell him whether there is wind in the room.

If there is wind and the Yin Shen has just come out of the body and is not yet stable, and is suddenly blown away, it will be troublesome.

However, it would be safer to be protected by the sandalwood smoke.

After dark.

Luo Qingfeng asked Xiao Tao to boil hot water, and after taking a nice bath, he was ready to burn incense and practice.

Before that, he also made some preparations.

Some things were placed secretly in the small courtyard, the courtyard door and room door were all bolted, and the windows were also bolted.

Xiao Tao was guarding the main room outside, and no one was allowed to come in without his instructions.

Although the little girl didn't understand what he was doing, she obeyed and executed his orders unconditionally.

After doing this, Luo Qingfeng lit the sandalwood and sat cross-legged on the couch.

He closed his eyes first, and then carefully checked the method for the Yin Shen to leave the body. Then, his eyes fell on the pagoda picture.

He gathered his spiritual thoughts and landed at the door of the pagoda.

Then, enter the pagoda and start climbing up step by step from the first floor.

It seems that only the inward gaze is climbing the tower.

But he could clearly feel that his soul and all his spiritual thoughts seemed to be condensed into a nihilistic little person, walking step by step towards the top of the highest tower, stepping on the stairs.

It was easy at first, but then the steps became heavier and heavier.

No wonder, one needs a strong soul to start this step.

at the same time.

Under the courtyard wall outside, there was a sudden sound of dead leaves being trampled to pieces.

But at this critical moment, Luo Qingfeng didn't hear it.

Xiaotao was wearing a light yellow dress and was sitting quietly in the main room, embroidering flowers with her head down.

That childish and cute face, under the light, looks even more youthful, delicate, and pretty.

The high chest almost buried her face in it.

"Who?"

She looked up suddenly.

A shadow seemed to appear outside the door, stretched by the moonlight, and slipped in through the crack of the door silently.

But when she looked up, there was nothing.

Suddenly, there was another sound in the courtyard, and then there seemed to be the sound of a sword being drawn.
