"First, show me in front of me how you turned into a decapitated ghost."

Yu Qingfeng stood in front of Ding Xiyao, holding the baggage that had just been filled with charcoal with one hand, and reaching into the lapel of her coat with the other hand.

Ding Xiyao belatedly said again, "Wait a minute, you didn't wear this coat when you went out just now."

Yu Qingfeng smiled and lifted up her coat to reveal the mystery inside, and said:

"That's right, I made this jacket when I was making ginger soup in the back kitchen of the government office. I put it together with the charcoal fire. I just went to get the charcoal fire and put on this special coat."

The jacket is opened, and inside are several bamboo supports fixed together.

Yu Qingfeng gently lifted a bamboo stick around her waist, and the entire coat was lifted up, directly covering Yu Qingfeng's head.

Viewed from the front, Yu Qingfeng's head "dropped" to her chest.

"At this time, I will throw out the baggage with the charcoal fire in my hand at the same time, creating the illusion that my head has been moved and fallen." As she said that, Yu Qingfeng threw out the empty baggage in her hand.

Ding Xiyao was dumbfounded, "But, in this case, your height remains the same, but your head is missing..."

"That's right, that's why I squat down before doing this trick, 'decapitate' when I stand up, and bend my knees at the same time. In this way, you will ignore the change in height."

Ding Xiyao's eyes widened and her mouth opened and closed, but she couldn't say a word. In the end, she could only clasp her fists in admiration.

"Do you believe it now? A person can disguise himself as a decapitated ghost. All he needs to do is do a trick. The environment in the ancient tomb is darker, and Lou Anyi himself is even more panicked and frightened. It will be easier to deceive him.

"

Ding Xiyao put away her admiration and said, "You are a master of magic. This is not inconsistent with the fact that my father's ghost killed the intruder Zhou Lang."

Okay, I've been busy for a long time and failed.

"According to your statement, the murderer disguised himself as the ghost of Ding Chuanzong, also known as the beheaded ghost, which means there were three people in the tomb at that time. But the problem is that twenty-three witnesses testified that Zhou Lang was the only one in the tomb before and after the crime.

and Lou Anyi. So, where is the murderer?"

Pei Wuyan added the weight of failure, fearing that Yu Qingfeng's defeat was not complete enough and she could still turn around.

"Then the murderer must have used some trick. Maybe there are other entrances and exits to the tomb. We'll find out later when the two adults come back."

Yu Qingfeng was telling the truth. She had a hunch that the secret room would never be that simple.

Besides, according to Du Huanmo, the secret chamber was only equivalent to a hut more than one foot square. At that time, the Taoist priest Wu Xinyou had limited economic conditions, tight time and heavy tasks, and the construction team could not dig out a large tomb.

In such a small space, twenty-three people can be clearly seen at a glance. How can they be mistaken?

Moreover, since all twenty-three people had placed bets, for the sake of fairness, they all entered the tomb and inspected it, and no one said there was any hidden space.

"I think there must be no other entrance or exit to the tomb." Pei Wuyan said firmly.

"Why?"

"intuition."

If it were reality, Yu Qingfeng would definitely sneer at it, but this is the male protagonist's intuition, and it is the truth.

"Of course there can't be any other entrances and exits. My master said that no one can break in, and my father's ghost cannot escape. He will not open it in person until my father's ghost borrows the animal head.

Tomb chamber." Ding Xiyao was more precise than Pei Wuyan.

Yu Qingfeng and Pei Wuyan looked at each other, unable to complain about Ding Xiyao.

Soon, Lin Ming and Lian Shurong returned, and they brought back the conclusion. They searched carefully for several miles around the tomb, and found that there was no other entrance or exit at all.

But just in case there are any omissions due to the darkness, they will continue to search after dawn tomorrow.

In the middle of the night, Pei Wuyan, Lin Ming and Lian Shurong personally supervised the work for a while to ensure that no one made any small moves. Then they went back to the tent to rest.

Early the next morning, Yu Qingfeng was sleeping soundly when she was awakened by the sound of horse hooves coming from far and near.

Listening to this battle, it should be Xia Ti's punishment.

Yu Qingfeng came out of the tent to greet Pei Wuyan and the others, and then the four of them, plus Ding Xiyao, stood aside and watched helplessly as Xia Feitao and Du Huanmo exchanged polite greetings and went through the official procedures.

Yu Qingfeng stole a glance at Pei Wuyan and the three cobblers.

Pei Wuyan rose from being a commoner to being the Minister of Dali Temple. It is normal that he does not understand and dislike officialdom. How come even Lin Ming and Lian Shurong do not follow the usual procedures?

Lin Ming had a cold face, and all he needed to write on it were a few big characters: I would rather break than bend, and corrupt and mediocre officials should not be disturbed.

Lian Shurong, on the other hand, had a joking look on his face, with just a few big words written on it: I am unruly and unruly, and I will not give you face if you dare to come.

Xia Feitao turned out to be younger and more handsome than expected. Judging from his age, he was the same age as Pei Wuyan and the others. He was a high-ranking official from the third rank at such a young age, so he was a young talent.

The reason why Pei Wuyan became a third-rank official at a young age is because he is the protagonist.

The reason why Xia Feitao became a third-rank official at such a young age must be because of his tricks.

"Master Xia, the robbery cave can be opened again tomorrow night. Do you want to go down with us?"

Pei Wuyan said two sentences to Xia Feitao. The first sentence was a greeting, and the second sentence was an invitation.

Xia Feitao smiled clearly, as if he had understood that Pei Wuyan had expected him to refuse and not dare to go to the grave. So he decided to do the opposite.

"I am the presiding judge of Zhou Lang's case. Now that Mr. Pei is advocating a review, I will naturally accompany him."

Yu Qingfeng raised her eyebrows, Xia Feitao was also playing the opposite trick.

In this way, there is no need to worry about Xia Feitao playing tricks outside and destroying the tomb that he fears, and burying it together with the Dali Temple who came to overthrow him.

But even so, not all of them in Dali Temple can enter the tomb, and they still have to leave at least one person outside to respond.

Yu Qingfeng and Pei Wuyan coincided with each other and felt that Lin Ming was the most suitable candidate.

After all, Lian Shurong is a master and responsible for force.

If there really is another entrance and exit in the tomb that they haven't discovered yet, and the murderer catches him by surprise, they will need a martial arts master to contend with him.

Although Lin Ming was a little reluctant that Yu Qingfeng was alone with Pei Wuyan again, he didn't say a word of reluctance. After all, business matters were important.

"Who are these two girls?" Xia Feitao turned his eyes to Yu Qingfeng and Ding Xiyao.

Yu Qingfeng was about to introduce herself when she was overtaken by the straightforward Ding Xiyao.

"Oh, this Miss Yu is Lord Pei's maid. My name is Ding Xiyao, and I am the daughter of Ding Chuanzong. I also want to go to the tomb to see my father's ghost."

Xia Feitao's face turned green.

Pei Wuyan pretended to be helpless and explained to Xia Feitao in a low voice: "Miss Ding comes from a Taoist temple and is a monster hunter herself. We don't need to argue with her about ghosts and gods."

Xia Feitao softened his expression and nodded in agreement, "Indeed, if it is a mage, there will be no conflict between Taoism and Taoism. It is indeed useless to talk more. But, do you want to take her to the grave with you?"

"Even if we don't take her with us, she will still be able to get in even if she digs with bare hands for a year and a half. Rather than letting her do it alone, we might as well take her with us and see what she does after entering the tomb."

Xia Feitao was persuaded by Pei Wuyan, "That's fine, that's fine."

Yu Qingfeng observed Xia Feitao carefully. It was obvious that Xia Tixing was afraid of Ding Xiyao.

When I went to see Ding Xiyao again, the girl still looked careless and stupid. She only wanted to go to the tomb and was immersed in the excitement of meeting her father's ghost soon.
