weird world corpse

Chapter 36 Nightmares and Clues

Something to prove his identity?He didn't have it, and he left in such a hurry, even if he had it, he didn't bring it with him.

But apart from wuzuo, no one would be idle with such a professional tool.

In order to get the yamen servant to ask less questions, Fang Mu even took on a threatening tone, and put all the blame for the delay on the yamen servant's head.

The two yamen servants looked at each other, listening to Fang Mu's seriousness, one of the yamen servants entered the county government office.

In less than a moment, the yamen servant came out and said, "Come in with me, Zhang Zhi County is waiting for you."

Fang Mu nodded and followed in.

After entering the county government office, the magistrate of Meng County was already waiting in the hall.

"You are Fang Mu?" Zhang Zhixian did not wait for Fang Mu to open his mouth, and said his name first: "Yu Zhixian came to Meng County on business a long time ago, and once mentioned you, saying that you are the only magistrate in Jinglong County, but Very sweet."

Fang Mu said politely: "How can it compare to Meng County? Jinglong County is the only one I work in. It's really busy."

Zhang Zhixian sighed, and said: "It's not a good thing to do too much. By the way, you said that there is a murder case related to Meng County?"

"Yes." Fang Mu said, "Master Zhang County, has someone moved out of Meng County recently?"

Fang Mu got the bark of Meng County from the corpse of a young girl, and Fang Mu thought it should be related to Meng County.

The three members of that family were very familiar, and they probably came from Meng County.

When this was mentioned, Zhang Zhixian remained silent.

Seeing this expression, Fang Mu already understood.

Something is wrong here!

"It's a matter of human life." Fang Mu knocked on the handle of the chair, and said, "If the magistrate of Zhang County conceals it and does not report it, it may affect his official career."

Zhang Zhixian took a sip of tea with worry in his eyes, and with a struggling look in his eyes, he winked at the person next to him.

The servants looked at each other and left one after another.

After the yamen servants left, Zhang Zhixian was still struggling.

Fang Mu shook his head and said, "It's just you and me. I have a very strict personality, so you can rest assured, and there is no one else here. You can deny it when you say it."

Zhang Zhixian gritted his teeth and asked, "Do you believe... there are ghosts in this world?"

Fang Mu: "..."

If you don't believe it, do you believe that I am not from this world?

Of course, he didn't say that.

Zhang Zhixian continued: "In the past few years, several people died for no reason in Mengxian County. No one could find the reason, so I reported it, and a Taoist priest was sent from the capital to solve it."

"At that time, the Taoist priest said that it was not man-made, and told me not to delve into it. I thought it was back to normal, but recently there have been problems..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhixian frowns and sighs.

Fang Mu asked, "What happened?"

"Nightmare!" Zhang Zhixian said: "Several families have nightmares. I have already contacted the higher-ups, and people came, but after the people came, the nightmares suddenly disappeared, and nothing can be found. After the people leave Appeared again."

Nightmare?

Fang Mu rubbed his chin. If it was a nightmare, it would be a bit bizarre.

"It's a coincidence that just last night, some people who were troubled by nightmares stopped having nightmares."

"Disappeared?"

"Yes, the people sent from above have come here a few times before, but they all returned without success. After leaving, they started again, but they didn't show up again last night."

Zhang Zhixian took a sip of tea and said, "So...you can't find anything even if you look for it, because there has never been a murder case, and there is no dead body."

When people come, the nightmare disappears, and when people leave, they appear again. It seems that they are hiding on purpose.

Fang Mu asked: "What kind of nightmare are you having?"

"Famine!" Zhang Zhixian said solemnly: "Those people all dreamed about famine, and then a mysterious person gave them bark to eat. After eating it, they were in a trance, and when they woke up, they found it was a dream."

bark?

Fang Mu stretched his hand into his bosom, covering up the effect of taking it out of his mind, pretending to pull it out from his bosom: "This kind of bark?"

Zhang Zhixian was startled, took it over and examined it carefully, nodded after a while and said, "That's right, the bark of fire phoenix fruit, a specialty of Meng County."

Fang Mu pondered: "Are there any other clues about the nightmare?"

Just a nightmare with very few clues.

Zhang Zhixian shook his head and said: "You can go to those people who have nightmares to confirm, it's just a nightmare, there is nothing else. The people who moved out of Meng County left in fear because they thought of the previous murder case."

Fang Mu hummed, and took the bark back.

Put aside the nightmare for now, there are more important things.

Fang Mu asked: "A few years ago when the murder case occurred, were there any headless corpses?"

The headless ghost harmed the little girl's family, and the little girl's family is from Meng County. Is the headless ghost related to Meng County?

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhixian's face became serious, and he looked at Fang Mu suspiciously.

Why would he know about the headless corpse two years ago?

Fang Mu saw Zhang Zhixian's doubts, and explained: "It's very simple, I had contact with those deceased people before they were alive, and there is no wall that does not leak, they told me."

Zhang Zhixian's doubts were slightly reduced, and he hesitated: "Indeed, it is a little boy, raised by only one father, and the child will go crazy when he dies."

"Crazy, still alive?"

"It's still alive, and the county government has been sending people to take care of it. After all, as the county magistrate, I feel ashamed."

"Then where is he?" Fang Mu asked after thinking about it.

Maybe... the breakthrough point of the matter lies in this person.

Zhang Zhixian said with a wry smile: "People are crazy. We also asked at the time, but it didn't work."

"Master Zhang." Fang Mu stood up and said solemnly: "Anything that has a chance of life, don't let it go. Since I'm here, don't question it."

Zhang Zhixian froze for a moment, then called out.

The yamen servant came in and waited for orders.

Zhang Zhixian ordered: "Lead this little brother to the Chen family to have a look, it is the Chen family."

The yamen servant looked at Fang Mu in surprise, but the magistrate ordered him to, and he didn't say much. He nodded yes, then turned to Fang Mu, and said, "Little brother, please come with me."

Fang Mu collapsed the wooden box, followed the yamen servants and left the county yamen...

The two walked around the winding streets, and finally came to a slightly remote place.

In front of Fang Mu was a wooden house, which looked very old from the outside. There was a small yard in front, and there were a few poles for drying clothes on the yard.

In the yard of the wooden house, a woman was drying clothes to dry.

The woman is about forty years old and has a slightly fat body.

"This is the person hired by the county government to take care of him." The servant explained and led Fang Mu over: "Sister-in-law Wang, we are here for business."

The woman heard the voice and saw two people coming, she recognized the yamen servant, she wiped her hands and walked to the front.
