"He undoubtedly died in his sleep, and the body showed no signs of poisoning before death."

"Based on preliminary judgment, there are two results. One is that the soul is sucked away by an unknown creature. The other is that the dream demon is responsible."

"And this kind of weird phenomenon rarely happens. So we judge that 80% of it is the dream demon who is doing evil."

The report he made made Zhao Shanhe frown: "What do you mean? What does it mean that weird phenomena rarely happen? If it rarely happens, it means it has happened before?"

"Yes, I have."

One of the older men said: "It has happened several times over the years. One was six hundred years ago, when more than 3,000 people in four villages died mysteriously. They were all sleeping or working, and suddenly

Death without any warning."

"One time was 380 years ago, when more than 700 people in three mountain villages in the west of the city died mysteriously."

"There were other times, three hundred and thirty years ago, three hundred years ago, two hundred and forty years ago, one hundred and eighty years ago... The most recent one was four years ago in Changshou Mountain Village in the east of the city.

More than 300 people in the village died at the same time."

"A few times, I smelled some special smells, but nothing else was found. No matter how I investigated, there was no result. I sent out experts to dig deep into the ground for inspection, but there was no result. Everything was...

Let it go."

"Then there is the case of Qingyun Village this time."

"If we talk about scale, Qingyun Village is the largest this time."

The older man's face had a gloomy look left over from having been in this business for many years, but his speech was extremely coherent.

"Every time it is like this time, it can be said that it is caused by the dream demon, but it can also be explained that it is a strange phenomenon... so my subordinate..."

Zhao Shanhe frowned.

"Which one is more likely?" Zhao Shanhe asked.

"The dream demon is more likely." Wu Zuo said without hesitation.

Zhao Shanhe's expression darkened.

It's just more likely, so how do you report it?

Moreover, Fang Che and others were investigating this case, and when they found Qingyun Village, everyone in Qingyun Village died immediately.

Is this a coincidence?

No relevance?

If there is a correlation, what does it have to do with the Dream Demon? Although this Qingyun Village is not a kind person, but... he is not a solipsistic person either!

Zhao Shanhe felt confused for a moment.

If it was because of his report that Master Jiu made a wrong judgment and searched in the opposite direction...this would be a huge mistake on his part.

Fang Che listened quietly on the side, frowning and said: "This senior inspection... how long has he been doing this?"

The old man bowed hurriedly and said with sincerity and fear: "I don't dare to be called the senior captain of Fang. I have been doing this in the southeast for 1,100 years."

The status of work is very low.

Although the status of the guardian's office is much higher than that of the government official, it is still a relatively low-level position in the guardian sequence.

For a high-ranking patrol like Fang Che who holds orders of life and death, this is nothing worth mentioning.

"It's been eleven hundred years..." Fang Che sighed: "It's been a long time, why don't you change your position?"

The old man was silent for a moment and said: "My subordinates can't go to other departments. All those who have done work seem to be stained with bad luck... No department will accept them."

"..." Fang Che sighed.

"However, there is still some use for the work. Over the years, the Southeast Headquarters, and even other places... the work in many places have been cultivated by Lao Chen..."

The old man bowed his waist humbly and said: "It's a bit humble and humble, but...some of the grievances of the deceased cannot be seen by others. Only Wu Zuo can touch them...it's still a bit...

.”

"Thanks for your hard work."

Fang Che said: "I don't know much about Wu Zuo, but I know there is a saying in your line of work."

"What words?"

"This sentence is... the dead can talk. It's just that most people can't understand what the dead have to say."

Fang Che said: "Senior, you have been doing this for so long, but now, facing the corpse of Zhuangzi... what did they say to you?"

There was a hint of solemnity on the old man's face.

He hesitated for a moment, raised his head, looked into Fang Che's eyes, and said: "Captain Fang is right, but this matter is also the weird part of today's incident, because...these dead people, they are telling me...

…”

"...They didn't speak."

The old man's wrinkled face showed great confusion: "So I don't know how to report this matter."

"This is already the seventeenth such case that I have experienced in my life!"

"I'm also wondering. He died for no reason. Even if he died in his sleep, how could he not complain at all?"

The old man's face was blank.

Fang Che also had an unsolved mystery in his heart.

Even after a lifetime of work and thousands of years of experience, Fang Che was at a loss, and Fang Che felt even more aimless.

But if the investigation reaches this point, the whole village will die!

The clue suddenly stopped.

And the person who died had no complaints at all, which is even more... incredible.

The blame for this matter has been firmly placed on the dream demon's head, but it was definitely not the fault of any dream demon. So who did it?

Fang Che frowned and pondered beside him.

Zhao Shanhe and others were discussing.

Finally, we decided to report the truth: "...The cause of death is unknown. It is most likely caused by the dream demon, but it may also be due to other reasons. We are currently investigating..."

And the people who were checking the accounts of Qingyun Village also came.

This time, checking the accounts made everyone even more confused.

Because looking at the books, there is absolutely no evidence of buying or selling the little beggar.

It seems that Qingyun Village is completely engaged in legitimate business.

While searching the underground, a huge discovery was made.

Underground in Qingyun Village, there is a huge cave.

In the cave, there are tunnels extending in all directions.

The tunnel is narrow but slippery.

There were traces of blood inside, but other than that, there were no clues.

The tunnel is so smooth that it can be skated on, and it doesn't leave any smell; it doesn't leave anything similar to bones, fur, hair or the like.

"It's so evil!"

Zhao Shanhe stood under the hot sunshine, but did not feel any warmth.

This time, all the wealth of Qingyun Village has been returned to the public, which can be said to be a huge fortune! The harvest is even several times more than that of wiping out the Qinglong Gang.

But Zhao Shanhe didn't feel the slightest bit happy either.

He only felt a huge shadow already shrouding the sky over Donghuzhou.

It's like a prehistoric beast that can cover the world, opening its bloody mouth towards Donghuzhou!

You can swallow Donghuzhou whole at any time!

No clues can be found, and such a strange death can only be blamed on the dream demon.

Fang Che frowned and thought.

Among the people present, only he knew clearly that he was definitely not a dream demon. But if it wasn't a dream demon, what would it be?

His eyes looked at the dense bushes outside Qingyun Villa.

Vaguely, I felt like I had grasped something key, but I couldn't figure it out.
