Next, when I chatted with Jiajia's parents, I consciously led the conversation to their ancestors to see if they might have touched the shadow corpse? However, the content of the speech is very common. For generations, they are all farmers in Western Hunan. There is no valuable information.

Peng Yu saw my mind and followed me up while I was on the toilet. He asked me if I had found anything.

"It doesn't seem to be an accident..." I said, frowning.

"Someone wants to hurt Jiajia?" Peng Yu became nervous as soon as he heard it.

I shook my head. If I just want to hurt Jiajia, any shadow corpse can kill her, and that thing has been dragged until now, I must want to do something with Jiajia.

The shadow corpse appeared on the mountain beside the village, which shows that it was a battlefield long ago. At that time, Mr. Zhushi probably never left his hometown. There must be descendants of Mr. Zhushi among the residents of the village.

Thinking of this, I asked Peng Yucun if there was a body chaser? Or I don't know whose ancestors have done this.

Peng Yu turned his eyes and thought for a long time. He was embarrassed and said, "I've been out all year, and I haven't noticed that yet."

"Forget it."

Years of military career has made him dull. I can see that from him, I don't want to get useful information, just go back to the house and ask the two old people.

What surprised me was that they didn't even hear about Mr. Zhushi. Jiajia's father even recalled: "there should be no such person in the previous generation. When the four old days were broken, the only witches in the village were also pulled to fight. If there is Mr. Zhushi, it must be caught."

What he said is right. I can only give up this idea temporarily and focus on Jiajia.

When everyone fell asleep in the second half of the night, Jiajia slipped out again like the day before.

Since it was found in yesterday's tracking, I had to let Wei Yu follow it first, and then come back to tell me when it was found.

After Wei Yu left with her, Peng Yu and I jumped into Jiajia's room along the roof. After he went in, he looked east and West, and reached out to touch the small mirror on the dresser. I stopped him quickly.

"Jiajia's smell is very sensitive. Don't touch anything here!"

As soon as Peng Yu listened to "whoosh" and took back his hand, I began to look at it carefully. The room was very clean, spotless except for the ashes in the corner. It had the feeling of ancient people's boudoir, but it was very cold in this room, without a trace of popularity!

After a few minutes, I didn't find any clue. Instead, Peng Yu couldn't stand it. He asked me when to go out.

I took a look at him and asked him to go out to watch for me. Peng Yu wiped the cold sweat and opened the door and ran out. I locked the door and wiped it with a paper towel, looked again, and finally found some long hair under the dresser.

I carefully grabbed a few hairs and put them in my pocket, so I climbed up the roof with a little rope.

It wasn't long before Wei Yu came back. She said dejectedly, "bad brother, in the middle of it, her smell suddenly disappeared, so..."

"Just try."

I sighed and took her back. I couldn't even track Wei Yu. It's hard for me to think of any other way.

At this time, my back suddenly felt cold. It seemed that something was staring at me behind my back.

I suddenly turned my head and saw the crazy old lady sitting on a big tree that day looking at me coldly.

When I saw it, the old lady waved at me and pointed to the house under my feet.

She obviously knew something. Without saying anything, I followed the house nearby to Parkour and came under the tree.

"Not bad."

She nodded, jumped directly from the tree, and landed with only a slight rustle of sand.

I asked myself that I couldn't do it. I couldn't help looking at her more.

"It's a failure to track these two days, isn't it?"

"Where the girl goes, the shadow body will follow her. No one will want to follow her unless she exposes herself!" The old lady said with a ferocious smile.

My heart trembled, and then I couldn't believe it. "Impossible! Shadow corpses can only appear in a specific environment, and will never walk around as you say. "

The old lady smiled and asked me if I knew the range of shadow corpse activities? When I was asked by her, I couldn't speak for a long time.

After a while, she said to herself, "the whole Xiangxi area is full of shadow corpses. Don't you find the clothes they wear are various?"

She is right. Jiajia should gather all the shadow corpses nearby, so that no matter where she goes, there is no lack of such invisible bodyguards around her!

"You watch me!"

The old lady made it clear that she had been staring at me from behind.

"I'm protecting you!"

The old lady didn't deny it. She sighed at the barren mountain in the distance and asked if I would cooperate with her.

"I have a kind of loach bug in my hand. As long as Jiajia eats it, she can't escape my sight even if she runs to the horizon."With that, she took a small bottle out of her arms and handed it to me. I didn't take it back. I stepped back and asked coldly, "who are you? What's the purpose of approaching me?"

"To help you, of course." She showed an interesting smile: "you don't need the loach bug and try your own way, but you'd better hurry up, the girl can't last long."

"You..."

I gnawed my teeth and stared at her, but I couldn't see what she was thinking. Finally, I breathed out a breath and grasped the loach bug in my hand.

"That's right!"

The old lady smiled and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something else. At this time, footsteps came from not far away, and then Peng Yu's voice came: "Jiulin, are you there?"

As soon as the old lady's face changed, she burst out laughing, pulled a handful of weeds from the ground and threw them on me. She kept scolding me, and finally left.

I can't help but froze. The old lady just pretended to be crazy, which was different from facing other villagers. She seemed to be especially afraid of Peng Yu. Why?

I didn't come back until Peng Yu came up. He asked me how I was here. I said that when I saw someone here, I came to have a look. I didn't expect that it was the crazy woman.

After saying that, I poohed and pretended to be very unlucky. When I looked down, I saw him quietly. I didn't know whether it was an illusion or something. I always thought Peng Yu's eyes were a little complicated.

We went into the yard together. Peng Yu sighed and asked me what to do? After thinking about it, I decided not to tell him about the loach and the insect, just to think about something else.

That night, we didn't take care of Jiajia any more. We went back to our room and went to bed. As soon as I came in and lay down, Yin Xinyue opened his eyes and asked me pitifully if there was any progress.

"It's hard to tell!"

it took so long to track Jiajia. It's hard to imagine the guy behind her.

"Brother Zhang, no way No, let's go. "

Yin crescent shrank in the quilt and said in a low voice. She used to be particularly interested in this kind of thing. Now she wants to flinch when she meets some difficulties. In the end, she is the mother and has concerns.

"There must be a result at this stage. Besides, do you really have the heart to ignore Peng Yu?"

I smiled bitterly and hugged her in my arms. Yin Yueyue said "Alas" and didn't speak again.

I spent the whole afternoon searching for the information of shadow corpses on the Internet, but I didn't find any definite information. There were many descriptions with literary color, but that would disturb my thinking instead.

T-shirt man and Yiqing Taoist priest should know a little bit, but now it's not the time to consult them, so I have to temporarily relax myself and have a good sleep.

After supper, Peng Yu can't wait to ask me what I think of. He must see from my indifference that I have a solution.

"Keep tracking!"

I covered the past with a word. Peng Yu didn't believe me for a while, but he didn't say much.
