After leaving Lao Zhou's noodle stall, Zou Heng went directly to the west of the city to find the place described in the dossier he got.

The content described in this file is relatively detailed, so it is not difficult to find it. After Zou Heng came to the west of the city, he didn't spend much effort to go around the place where the problem occurred, and even quickly learned about Xu Mugong's identity.

residence.

This is a row of residential houses. Each house has a small courtyard. There are quite a few people living around it. It is already the fifth day since the abnormality occurred, even some relatively slow people.

, some problems were discovered at this time, so in the past few days, the number of people still living nearby began to gradually decrease.

Zou Heng came to Xu Carpenter's door. When he saw that the door was ajar, he knew that the other party was at home. He did not go in directly. Instead, he raised his hands first, put them together as swords, and drew them in front of his eyes.

, directly performed the eye-opening technique.

After his eyes glowed with green light, Zou Heng looked around again and could already see something different.

Zou Heng did not see any evil aura around this room. Under the influence of the eye-opening technique, everything in front of him still looked very normal.

Zou Heng was a little surprised by this, but he did not relax his vigilance, because not all evils were so easy to discover.

He took a few steps forward, came to the door, knocked on the door with his hand, and shouted into the room at the same time.

"Carpenter Xu is here, someone is here to visit!"

After he shouted, he heard footsteps coming from inside, and after a few breaths, a relatively tall man about forty or fifty years old appeared at the door.

His face is covered with stubble, the wrinkles on his face are very obvious, and his expression is a bit sad. There are deep dark circles under his eyes. He may not have had a good rest for a long time.

He looked Zou Heng up and down. When he saw the satchel on Zou Heng's waist, his eyes narrowed slightly and his expression changed slightly.

Zou Heng was also sizing up the other person, so he keenly captured the changes in the other person's expression, but he didn't say anything, instead he smiled and said.

"You must be Carpenter Xu. My name is Zou Heng. I came here today because I want to ask you something!"

As soon as Zou Heng finished speaking, the look on Xu Carpenter's face became even more ugly, and he said to Zou Heng with some vigilance.

"I don't know you, and I have nothing to tell you. Just go away and don't disturb my life!"

After saying that, Xu Carpenter prepared to close the door directly, with no intention of communicating with Zou Heng.

Seeing this, Zou Heng hurriedly stepped forward and blocked the door, making it impossible for Xu Carpenter to close the door.

Seeing Zou Heng's actions, the expression on Xu Carpenter's face cooled down. He stretched out his hand and pulled something behind the door. Then Zou Heng suddenly felt a strong force coming from behind the door, which made him feel uncomfortable.

I felt a little unable to hold the door.

At this time, the expression on Xu Carpenter's face was a little surprised, because he did not expect that Zou Heng could still reach the door.

At this time, behind his door, there are two wooden pillars, which are pushing against the door. There is also a very delicate mechanism that continuously presses these two pillars down, forming a pushing force outward. The force formed in this way

, it weighs at least several hundred kilograms, and few people can withstand it.

"Xu Carpenter, I came here after receiving a file from the Foreign Recruitment Institute. You must know what I am doing here. You shut me out like this. Doesn't this prove that there is something wrong with you here, even if you close the door?"

, I can still find a way to get in!"

Zou Heng leaned against the door and said to Xu Carpenter behind the door.

When he came over, he still wanted to slowly ask the other party some information, but looking at the other party's appearance, it was impossible to cooperate, so Zou Heng simply said it.

"I don't care what you do, don't come to my house to disturb me, just leave!" When Xu Carpenter, who was behind the door, heard Zou Heng's words, he became a little more excited, and his voice suddenly became louder.

Zou Heng still wanted to have a good communication with him, but after the other party said this, he lowered the bolt on the back of the door, making it clear that he did not want Zou Heng to come in.

Seeing this, Zou Heng simply retracted his hand, took half a step back, and let the door slam shut. Then Zou Heng walked a few steps to the side, reached out and snapped his fingers, and his figure disappeared.

.

After another breath or two, a ray of light hit the wall in front of where Zou Heng was standing, and then Zou Heng's figure vaguely revealed a transparent shadow on the wall, and went directly through the wall.

When Zou Heng entered Xu Carpenter's yard, he saw that Carpenter Xu was still standing at the door, leaning against the crack in the door and listening, as if he wanted to judge by the sound whether Zou Heng was outside or not.

Seeing such a scene undoubtedly proves that something is wrong with Xu Carpenter.

Zou Heng withdrew his gaze and immediately looked at the yard in front of him. The yard of this house was quite large, but at first glance, the first impression he gave was that it was messy. It had probably not been cleaned for a while.

In the corner of the yard, there is a large amount of wood piled up. Various tools are randomly placed everywhere in the yard, and the ground is piled with wood chips.

After Zou Heng looked around, he quickly set his sights on the room. According to the situation described in the file he got, there were some abnormalities around here. They only appeared after Xu Mugong made the wood carving of his deceased wife, so

In this case, the wood carving of Xu Carpenter's late wife was probably the problematic item, but we didn't see it in the yard. It was probably in the room.

Under the invisibility effect of the shadowing technique, Zou Heng walked carefully towards the room. Since the door of the room was open, Zou Heng did not have to worry about making any noise and walked directly in.

Zou Heng originally thought that he would look for the wood carving first after entering the room, but he did not expect that as soon as he entered, what he saw was the large and small wood carvings that filled the room.

These wood carvings have different colors and sizes. They are obviously carved from different types of wood. There are some differences in the shapes, but the characters are all the same. They should all be Xu Carpenter's late wife.

As soon as Zou Heng came in, even with the effect of the Shadow Technique, he felt as if many eyes fell on him in an instant. The wooden sculptures placed in the room seemed to be attracting all eyes.

Turn to yourself and look at yourself carefully.

This strange feeling further indicated that there was something wrong with these wood carvings. Zou Heng quickly counted and found that there were about twenty wood carvings in the room, basically filling the whole room. In just a few days,

In this time, Woodworking Xu produced so many wood carvings, which can be said to be very fast.

Raising his hands, Zou Heng used the Eye-Opening Technique again, preparing to use the Eye-Opening Technique to check out the wood carvings. After he used the Eye-Opening Technique, he looked at the wood carvings in the room again.

Zou Heng almost couldn't help but take action for a moment, because he found that when he used the eye-opening technique, all the wooden sculptures in the room turned towards him at some point, and the heads of some of the wooden sculptures seemed to be moving.

Twisting.

Zou Heng saw some gray-white evil energy in these wood carvings. It was not very strong, but it was present in every wood carving. This was enough to confirm that evil spirits were indeed born here.

Zou Heng saw such a scene, and the reason why he was able to hold back from taking action was that he found that some of the evil auras attached to these wooden sculptures were too weak, even so weak that they could not pose any threat to him.

.

These wood carvings should have been newly made in the past few days, not the wood carvings described in the original file. What Zou Heng was thinking now was that he could find that wood carving, and maybe that was the real evil.

Just when these wood carvings turned their heads, Xu Carpenter, who was at the door, seemed to feel something. At this time, he quickly ran back to the room from the door. After entering the room, he looked around with a vigilant face, as if

I want to see if there is anyone in the room.

After seeing that there was no one in the room, Xu Mugong's expression relaxed. But what he didn't know was that Zou Heng, who had used the Shadow Technique, was actually standing next to him, carefully watching the changes in his expression.

.

"Fortunately, no one came in. Fortunately, no one came in!" Xu Carpenter muttered this sentence repeatedly, his expression gradually relaxed, and then he walked out of the room and found some carpentry tools in the messy yard.

, and with some difficulty moved a piece of wood from the corner of the yard, sat at the door of the room, and started to get busy.

Zou Heng noticed that before he actually started to deal with the piece of wood, he muttered a few words softly to his tools as if chanting a curse, then stirred up some water, dipped it in the water and polished it, and then started

Process wood.

When he actually started to do it, he processed the wood very quickly. When the tool in his hand cut the wood, it seemed very easy. A piece of wood was in his hand, and in just a short moment, he had already cooked it into a piece of wood.

After getting the desired shape, I changed the tools and started carving carefully.

As expected, Carpenter Xu was making a statue of his deceased wife. When he was carving in detail, he was almost concentrating on it. He made the details of the statue very well, especially when carving a pair of eyes.

You can't be more careful, for fear that if you use even half an extra effort, the work will not be perfect.

It took less than half an hour to carve the entire statue. After finishing, Carpenter Xu moved the statue into the room and placed it with the other wood carvings.

During the whole process of making this wood carving, Zou Heng was watching quietly. The effect of the shadow technique had long since disappeared, but Xu Carpenter, who was fully focused, did not notice Zou Heng's existence at all.

"It seems that the investigators made a mistake. The problem is with these wood carvings, but the real source seems to be this Xu Carpenter!" Zou Heng looked at the general and after entering the room, some grayish white appeared on the surface.
