Mysterious country

Chapter 59
When they arrived at Hu Daniu's house, they found that Hu Daniu was dead.

The corpse fell under the coffin, its whole body was soaked with water stains that had not yet dried up, as if it had been drowned in the river and dragged ashore.But in fact, Hu Daniu was obviously not drowned, because his body was extremely shriveled, if it weren't for the water stains all over his body, he would have thought it was a mummy that had been weathered for an unknown number of years.

His eye sockets were deeply sunken, his whole body was covered with skin and bones, and the fear and pain before his death still remained on his ferocious face.

Looking at Hu Daniu who died tragically at home, Xia Qi and Leng Yue's expressions were very ugly, because obviously they all underestimated the killing speed of the female ghost.

They all thought that the speed of the investigation was fast enough, but now they just think that, as for the fact, it is not what they thought at first.

Because she didn't know if the female ghost was still there, Leng Yue and Xia Qi were very careful when they approached the coffin, so as not to be attacked by the ghost.

Fortunately, their worries did not come true. The female ghost seemed to have left, leaving only an empty coffin.

Looking down into the coffin, Xia Qi found that there was nothing in the coffin. If he didn't know it, he would think it was a new coffin that had just been made.But they knew very well what was in the coffin before that.

They were no strangers to the tragic scene similar to Hu Daniu, because they had seen Chen Cong from a fat man to a dehydrated person as early as noon. Hu Daniu is almost the same, but there is still one breath left to linger.

Leng Yue kept staring at the coffin containing the female ghost and said nothing, but Xia Qi said after thinking about it:

"Hu Daniu's death shows that our previous suspicions are correct. Boss Chen and his confidants do have some entanglements with the female ghost, but they don't know what the entanglements are."

Early in the afternoon, after they found out that Boss Chen had several confidantes in the village, including Hu Daniu, Xia Qi decided to find out the ins and outs of this incident through these people.Who would have thought that they had just started to act, and one of them had already been killed.

"I think this female ghost is a water ghost. Although it can't drown people, it can make people die of dehydration. This is much more painful than drowning people. I really don't dare to think about it now, Boss Chen What did they do to that ghost?"

Speaking of this, Xia Qi glanced at Leng Yue who was still staring at the coffin endlessly, and then asked with some discomfort:

"I haven't seen enough after watching it for so long, have you listened to me again?"

"I'm listening." Leng Yue nodded symbolically, then turned her head and said to Xia Qi:
"Give me the lighter."

"What are you going to do? You don't want to burn this coffin, do you? No!"

Xia Qi faintly guessed Leng Yue's plan, so he hurriedly refused and said:
"Let's not talk about whether this coffin is important to the female ghost, but if we really set it on fire, it is tantamount to declaring war on the female ghost again, which has nothing to do with our direct participation difference."

"I just want to simply look at it."

Leng Yue didn't know if she didn't mean it in the first place, or if she changed her mind temporarily after hearing Xia Qi's words, and didn't ask Xia Qi for a lighter after that.

Where did the female ghost go, and whether she will be killing people tonight? They can't be sure about this for the time being, but what is certain is that Hu Daniu has turned into a corpse, and the corpse can't tell them the truth, so It doesn't make sense for them to stay here any longer.

At Xia Qi's mention, he and Leng Yue came to the home of another person who was closely related to this incident, and this person was Lao Wang who had just suffered a great shock.

The so-called early arrival is worse than coincidence. Just as Xia Qi and Leng Yue were about to knock on the door, they saw Lao Wang rushing out of the door with a look of shock on his face. If Xia Qi hadn't reacted fast enough, he would have bumped into Lao Wang hard. together.

"Wang Mu, Mr. Wang, right?"

Because I met Mr. Chen before, and Xia Qi deliberately memorized the names of several people at that time, so even though the light outside was very dark, he still recognized Lao Wang's identity with sharp eyes.

At this time, Lao Wang was a frightened bird, and he couldn't bear the slightest fright at all, so when he was suddenly stopped by two black shadows, he burst into a series of terrified cries.

"what……!"

Leng Yue and Xia Qi were somewhat puzzled by Lao Wang's yelling, but after thinking about it, Xia Qi thought of a certain possibility.I think Lao Wang probably witnessed Hu Daniu's tragic death with his own eyes, so he was frightened into this appearance.

Reminding Leng Yue to press Lao Wang's shoulders, Xia Qi dragged Lao Wang out of the door with all his strength, for fear that he would startle the people inside by shouting.

Covering Lao Wang's mouth hard, tried to calm him down, and then listened to Xia Qi's comforting words:
"Look more clearly, we are not ghosts but humans, you don't have to be afraid. If you don't believe me, look here, Xiao Nier is here..."

Ignoring Leng Yue's white eyes and saying it several times in a row, Lao Wang finally listened to his words, and his emotions gradually calmed down. He heard him ask:
"What do you want to do?"

"I want to ask you something." Xia Qi said in front of Leng Yue, not wanting Leng Yue to waste time like practicing Tai Chi.

"What do you want to know?"

"It's about Boss Chen's daughter-in-law Xiaoli."

"Xiao Li?" When he heard the name "Xiao Li", Lao Wang's body visibly shook, and his originally calm face instantly became gloomy again:
"How do I know about her? If you want to ask, you should go to Boss Chen."

Old Wang swallowed, and said in a blunt tone.

Whether a person is telling the truth or lying, you can get certain hints from his tone or expression, especially for a person like Lao Wang who has never uttered nonsense at ordinary times, he knows it is right from the moment he opens his mouth. lying.

"You really don't know?" Xia Qi raised his tone again at this moment.

"Of course I don't know, you guys are still going on, let me go, I have something to do now!"

Lao Wang struggled to get rid of Xia Qi and Leng Yue, but they didn't have the strength to let go at all. He tugged hard but still couldn't break free.

The successive inquiries were met with cold treatment, which made Xia Qi completely lose his patience, but since this is Lao Wang's doorstep, if he yelled, it would probably cause unnecessary trouble, and even that It could only be the ghosts wandering around here, so Xia Qi planned to take Old Wang to a place where no one was around.

But thinking that Lao Wang would not cooperate, Xia Qi simply chose a tough method, directly blocked Lao Wang's mouth and Leng Yue, and forced him into the yard of Hu Daniu's house.

Originally, Old Wang was still struggling, but when he saw Hu Daniu's shriveled body, he instantly became quiet, and his eyes immediately became hollow.

Xia Qi also said in a cold tone at this time:

"Chen Cong turned into a man, with only his last breath left. Hu Daniu's body is here, completely turned into a mummy. Why they did this, I think you must know better than us, but some One thing we know better than you is that if you don't answer us truthfully, it will also be your fate in the future.

We can assure you that we will never share what you revealed to us today.Of course, you have no choice, because if you say so, we may still help you, but if you don’t say so, you are absolutely dead. "
