I don't know how long it was, but it was around midnight.
"ah……"
Suddenly, a shrill scream came from the silent village, which woke up the three people in the ancestral hall. The eyes of the three locked on the door at the same time, and their weapons were already clenched tightly in their hands.
but……
After this scream, silence returned. The three looked at each other, and then stood up. Yuan Ye came to the front of the ancestral hall first, stretched out his hand and gently opened the door.
"Squeak..."
The door made a toothsome grinding sound, echoing in the silent night sky.
All three drew their long swords, prepared for defense, and stared outside. But there was no trace of it, and it was still empty.
Yuan Ye looked at Qin Shuang, Qin Shuang nodded, and Yuan Ye walked out of the gate, followed by Qin Shuang and Qin Yunxia, standing in the middle of the village road, looking back and forth, only the shadows of the three of them, never to be seen again No trace.
The night was like a curtain, as if a cage enveloped the three of them, the air seemed to become heavy and pressurized, pressing towards the three of them, and the houses on both sides seemed to turn into monsters staring at the three of them. people.
Qin Yunxia's body had already started to tremble, but Yuan Ye's expression was normal. After all, he had also experienced many wars, but his expression was nervous. His nervousness comes from Qin Shuang, and he is afraid that Qin Shuang will encounter any danger. Turning his head and looking at Qin Shuang under the moonlight, he saw Qin Shuang's indifferent face.
Why is Qin Shuang so nervous?
The environment she experienced in her previous life was even more terrifying than the present one. She turned her eyes towards the direction of the village and said in a low voice:
"The scream just now came from that direction."
"Yes!" Yuan Ye nodded, admiring Qin Shuang even more in his heart.
"Let's go and see!"
"good!"
Yuan Ye walked towards the head of the village, and the three of them looked at the houses on both sides. After walking for about fifty meters, the three of them stopped and looked at a house. At this time, the door of the house was open, and a bloody smell wafted from the inside.
The three of them looked at each other. You must know that they had visited door by door before, and the door of every house was closed. It was this door that Yuan Ye had knocked on, but there was no sound from inside.
"Walk!"
Qin Shuang issued an order in a low voice.
"Tat Tat Tat..."
The footsteps of the three people sounded in the night, echoing...
Standing at the door, the smell of blood came to my face, the room was very dark and I couldn't see clearly. Yuan Ye took out the fire folder, and following the faint light of the fire, the three of them walked into the room. Smelling the smell of blood, he came to the bedroom. The door of the bedroom was also open. Before entering the bedroom, there seemed to be a person lying on the bed, and the strong smell of blood came from his body.
Yuan Ye didn't rush to the bed immediately, but walked into the room cautiously, searched around, and came to the bed after confirming that no one was there. At this time, Qin Shuang and Qin Yunxia also came to the bed. Just looking at the bed, Qin Yunxia turned her head away.
"vomit……"
Qin Yunxia vomited profusely there, but Qin Shuang and Yuan Ye didn't even frown, but their expressions were not good-looking. In front of them, a middle-aged man was lying on the bed, but his chest was cut open, and the heart inside was gone.
There was no trace of a fight, and it seemed that someone had his heart gouged out while the person was asleep. Yuan Ye and Qin Shuang looked at each other, then pulled Qin Yunxia, who was still vomiting there, back out.
"Miss, what's going on?" Yuan Ye asked in a low voice.
Qin Shuang looked back and forth on the door,
Frowning slightly, he whispered:
"The door opens from the inside."
Yuan Ye's heart moved, and he also carefully looked at the door, and then a look of shock appeared on his face.
"How can this be?"
The door was bolted from the inside, but there was only one person inside, and someone had his heart gouged out in his sleep. You can't say that the middle-aged man sleepwalked by himself, opened the door, and then lay back on the bed, digging out his own heart, right?
All right!
Even so, where did his heart go?
heart?
Qin Shuang and Yuan Ye immediately lowered their heads and looked around for blood, but they didn't find a trace of blood.
At this time, even Qin Shuang and Yuan Ye felt a trace of fear in their hearts. This very reasonable sign made them nervous. Not to mention Qin Shuang and the warrior Yuan Ye who are currently cultivated, even Qin Shuang did not encounter such a strange thing in his previous life.
"Miss..." Qin Yunxia hugged Qin Shuang's arm in fear.
Qin Shuang calmed down and said, "Let's go back first."
The three of them returned to their ancestral hall again, but everyone's faces were ugly. Qin Yunxia even cowered and sat beside Qin Shuang. Qin Shuang patted Qin Yunxia lightly and said:
"Yunxia, don't be afraid!" Then she looked at Yuan Ye and said, "What do you think?"
Yuan Ye shook his head and said, "No, I really can't figure out how the murderer got in. I've seen that door. It's not simply a bolt, but a hook. It can't be opened from the outside unless it is forced to hit it. Break in. But that's not the case."
Qin Shuang nodded, lost in thought. But she couldn't figure it out, looking outside the ancestral hall, Qin Shuang said softly:
"There are obviously a lot of people in this village, but every family has closed their doors. Even if someone screamed just now, no one came out. Something must have happened in this village, and there should be more than one death like this. , but many times, which made them fearful and did not dare to come out."
Yuan Ye nodded and said, "It is very likely that such things happen at night, so every house is closed at night. They should come out at dawn."
"That's right, let's ask about it then!"
"Yeah!" Yuan Ye nodded and said, "Miss, you rest, I'll watch the night."
Qin Shuang said nothing, nodded slightly, and closed her eyes. Qin Yunxia on the side was still holding Qin Shuang's arms, but her eyes were still wide open and she dared not close them.
Yuan Ye picked up a piece of wood and put it on the bonfire, making a "cracking" sound, then put the long sword across his knees, facing the gate of the ancestral hall.
The sky is getting brighter...
It's just that the village is still silent, and Yuan Ye in the ancestral hall is still as motionless as a statue. Qin Yunxia had already fallen asleep leaning on Qin Shuang's shoulder, but her sleeping face showed frightened expressions from time to time.
A ray of morning sun shone in from the gate of the ancestral hall, as if the world suddenly became vivid.
