There was something wrong with the corpse at first glance. Before starting to dig the grave, Qi Shuangshuang made a point of asking to find out that this person had been dead for a month.

After such a long time, any corpse should be rotten to the point of showing its bones if it is not kept frozen in the refrigerator.

However, this corpse was intact, with no signs of decay except that the skin had turned frighteningly blue and black.

This was obviously abnormal. Qi Shuangshuang and Li Yu looked at each other and jumped down together to check the condition of the body.

The pit below was not big. After Qi Shuangshuang and Li Yu jumped down, there was no room left. They looked at Fenglin above, then transformed into the original civet cat and jumped down, squatting on Qi Shuangshuang's shoulders.

Qi Shuangshuang and Li Yu rummaged through the body, checking various conditions of the body. Qi Shuangshuang pointed at the heart of the body.

"His heart essence and blood were taken away, and he died for this reason. Apparently the other party was very picky about food and only took the best part of the essence."

The heart essence and blood are the essence of a person's essence. There are generally two types of essences absorbed by fairies. One does not harm people's lives and only takes part of it. Some of them only make you sick for a few days, and some will shorten your life span for two years.

But these are considered good luck compared to losing one's life.

The other is to absorb all the essence of the body. In this way, the person whose entire body of essence has been absorbed will naturally not survive. Not only that, the body will also become shriveled and skinny.

After Li Yu also checked, he said thoughtfully: "If only the heart essence and blood were taken, then it really doesn't look like it was done by a monster.

Monsters don't waste time. Since they are planning to kill people, they naturally have to absorb all their energy.

You must know that every time you harm someone, you have to bear a share of karma. If you don't absorb all the energy, you will not bear the karma in vain. No monster would do such an uneconomical thing."

Qi Shuangshuang stretched out his hand and knocked on the corpse, making several sounds like knocking iron: "Not only that, this corpse is so hard, which is not consistent with the appearance of being sucked out by monsters.

To make the corpse so hard, it must be that when he was dying and exhaling his last breath, he was invaded by extremely powerful resentment, which would lead to such a result.

Monsters are living creatures without Yin Qi and resentment, so naturally they cannot cause this kind of result. Those who can cause this kind of result are either evil cultivators practicing Yin ghost methods, or some powerful ghosts are harming people."

"No matter what, let's take a look at the condition of the other corpses. If they are all in this condition, then it is very likely that some powerful ghost is causing harm to people?"

Li Yu was a little unhappy when he said this. He had to dig a grave. He was a mysophobic fox and he didn't particularly like this kind of thing. Unfortunately, he had no choice. He couldn't beat the shopkeeper, so he could only be squeezed by both of them.

.

Qi Shuangshuang, who was busy dispersing the resentment in the corpse to prevent it from transforming into a corpse one day, didn't know what Li Yu was thinking. If he wanted to know, she would definitely cry out for injustice.

Although it was said that Li Yu was allowed to do the work, except for fighting, everything else was done by her. How could she not know when she had exploited him?

Unfortunately, Qi Shuangshuang didn't know what Li Yu was thinking, so she was still busy driving away the resentment from the corpse, then covered the coffin in time and filled the grave with soil as quickly as possible to restore the tomb to its original state.

Because the corpse will rot quickly after dissipating the resentment. If you don't move quickly, the smell of the rotting corpse will remain on the clothes. Qi Shuangshuang can't stand the smell of corpse all over his body.

After that, Qi Shuangshuang, Feng Lin, and Li Yu spent a whole night digging out the corpses of all the male ghosts who went to the Yin Yang Inn.

Standing in front of the corpse in the last sentence, Qi Shuangshuang frowned and said: "The corpse is not rotten, stiff and black, and hitting it is like hitting an iron tool. The heart essence and blood were taken away and died.

The death conditions of these corpses are exactly the same, and they were obviously killed by the same ghost. This ghost is very ferocious and has a good moral character, but I don’t know what it is?"

Li Yu crossed his arms and said, "It's really strange. It can kill so many people. This ghost must be very powerful. Wherever the powerful ghost is, there must be strong Yin energy and boiling resentment.

But on the way here, we didn't feel any yin energy or resentment. Isn't this very abnormal? What kind of ghost can hide his aura so well that even the two of us can't notice it?"

Fenglin sniffed his little nose and said to Qi Shuangshuang: "I smell a strong smell of ghosts on this corpse. It must not have been caused by ordinary ghosts."

"Nonsense, this corpse is as hard as iron and is lying here in a daze. If you have long eyes, you can tell that something is wrong with it. Besides, we have said before that this corpse did not die normally, so you need to smell it specially.

"

Li Yu just didn't feel right if he didn't quarrel with Feng Lin. When Feng Lin spoke, he immediately ridiculed Feng Lin.

Fenglin didn't care when he was ridiculed by Li Yu. He was used to being scolded by Li Yu and completely ignored this trouble-making fox.

After transforming into its original form, the cat's instinct took over. Fenglin followed his instinct and rubbed Qi Shuang's face, and said as if he was taking credit: "Shopkeeper, I mean I can smell what this ghost is."

Although Fenglin is a cat demon, his sense of smell is even better than that of a dog demon. As long as it is something he has smelled, he will remember it no matter how long it takes, and he can smell it no matter how subtle it is.

Qi Shuangshuang knew what Feng Lin was capable of. She raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Feng Lin: "What kind of ghost can you smell?"

Fenglin nodded: "You can smell it. There is a lot of yin energy and resentment on these corpses. These yin energy and resentment will emit a special smell, covering up another very light smell.

And this smell is too subtle, other monsters would definitely not be able to smell it, but I can smell it, it is the smell of a ghoul."

"It turns out to be a corpse!" Qi Shuangshuang and Li Yu felt as if they suddenly realized.

Ghouls are formed when the body of a dead person is accidentally buried on the Yin Veins. The soul refuses to leave the body and absorbs the Yin Qi from the Yin Veins.

Ghouls are similar to zombies, except that zombies have stiff limbs and low lethality. Zombies cannot appear during the day and are afraid of sunlight.

The limbs of the ghoul are soft and their movements are the same as those of humans. More importantly, the ghoul only hates the sun, but is not afraid of it.

Therefore, ghouls can walk around in the daytime. Therefore, if ghouls are among humans, it will be difficult for ordinary people to tell the difference between ghouls and humans.

If this ghoul practices some Taoism and knows some concealment techniques, then even a practitioner would have a hard time distinguishing the difference between a ghoul and a human being.
