After a long time, he put away the landscape painting and said, "I'll go find Miss Qiu first. Since the incident started with her outing in the snow, we may be able to find other useful clues."

Half an hour passed.

The atmosphere in the Qiu family's residence was deathly calm.

Feng Yunhai entered the main hall with his guards, only to find several men with knives and swords already standing inside.

They were all officers from the Six Gates of Fucheng. They stood in the main hall with gloomy faces, silently facing a corpse lying on the ground.

White candles were still burning all around, and the paper money in the brazier had burned out, leaving only ashes, emitting a burnt smell.

The corpse was that of a middle-aged man with a rough face. The expression on his face was ferocious and twisted. It was unclear whether it was fear or disbelief, surprise and confusion.

It is difficult for people to understand what he saw and what he experienced in the last moments before his life passed away.

"The head of the Qiu family actually died. When did this happen?" Feng Yunhai asked.

The leader of the arrest said, "Go back to the Second Young Master, we just received the news this morning, and the situation is already the same after we rushed here."

After a pause, he added, "After we came here, we controlled everyone, and the rooms of these dead people remained intact."

Feng Yunhai nodded and asked again, "Can you tell how he died?"

The head catcher looked puzzled and said with some uncertainty, "There are no injuries on the body, and my subordinates did not find any traces of poison. It is still difficult to tell the cause of death.

However, looking at Mr. Qiu's distorted expression, he looks like he was scared to death."

"Scared to death?"

Feng Yunhai frowned and looked at the Qiu family leader's eyes that he could not close until his death. He felt a little cold all over his body for no reason.

At this moment, Wei Tao had arrived in the adjacent room.

There were also corpses lying inside.

All the masters of the Qiu family died unexpectedly.

Only Miss Qiu was left, hiding in the room and not daring to come out.

Qiu Mansion is in complete chaos.

If it weren't for the headhunters at the six gates controlling the situation, I'm afraid the maids and servants inside would have already robbed the property and scattered it like birds and beasts.

After walking around in a circle, Wei Tao returned to the door of the inner house.

He always felt like something was wrong.

It wasn't because of the dead person, but because the interior of the mansion made him feel uncomfortable for no reason.

Wei Tao narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully observed every plant and tree inside.

The Guan Shen Guan Qi technique is quietly used, bringing every place into view.

Suddenly, in his perception, the inner house of Qiu Mansion seemed to come alive.

"This weird feeling."

Wei Tao's heart moved, and he suddenly took out the scroll from his sleeve and unfolded it in front of the door of the inner house.

The weird aura suddenly became stronger.

Quietly, traces of transparent silk threads were revealed, extending outward from each dead person's room, creating a strange and extremely suppressed atmosphere.

They came together in front of the door of the inner house where he was standing, and led to a house with closed doors and windows in the far corner.

There was a crisp click sound.

Wei Tao pinched off the brass door lock and walked in slowly.

This seems to be a warehouse with all kinds of furs piled in it.

If you sell them all, you can get at least several thousand taels of silver.

However, in the innermost place, under a pile of furs as white as snow, there are neatly stacked human skins.

Wei Tao gently exhaled a breath of turbid air, and suddenly what he saw in the low Meishan Mountain to the north of the capital city of Great Zhou appeared in his mind.

"Dingxuan Daozi Lieshan also died in the same way. Considering that Feng Qingping's body seems to have traces of concentric knots, could it be said that this matter is related to Yunhong?"

"This woman went to the foot of Qinglin Mountain to cause trouble. Could it be that she thought her life was too comfortable and wanted to seek death and step into hell?"

He thought silently, turned around and left the warehouse.

After a while, Wei Tao brought the trembling Miss Qiu over again.

"Miss Qiu, what do you think of these human skins?"

Miss Qiu just shook her head, "I don't know, I don't know anything."

Her lips moved, and she wanted to say something more, but suddenly she found that she couldn't say a word. She was dripping with cold sweat all over her body, and the wind blew her to the core, as if she was in an ice cellar.

Wei Tao looked at her quietly, and after a moment of silence, he sighed softly.

"When I saw the body of the Qiu family leader just now, I already had some suspicions, but it was only now that I suddenly discovered that your family is not a native of the Zhou Dynasty, but a member of the Northern Wilderness tribe who sneaked in long ago.

In this way, those transparent threads that spread from the inner house to this place can basically be related to the mysterious threads in the bodies of the Northern Wilderness Golden Dragon Cavalry."

After a pause, he suddenly had a puzzled look on his face, "Beihuang, Weisi, Dingxuan, Human Skin, a high-ranking member of the sect, Beihuang Saint Master?

Coupled with the concentric knot in Miss Feng's body, everything seems to point to the same source.

I hope to get a reasonable explanation from you. As long as you tell the truth, I will not only spare your life, but also protect you and spend the rest of your life safely."

Wei Tao spoke slowly, and the scarlet color began to gather in his eyes. There seemed to be a vague fragrance of flowers floating around, and all kinds of false sounds quietly appeared in this human skin warehouse.

Miss Qiu's vision went dark. When she came back to her senses, she found herself in a sea of ​​colorful flowers.

A hideous and terrifying bone altar slowly appeared in front of him.

The inside was rattling and changing into various shapes.

Her face suddenly turned pale and she murmured to herself, "I don't know, I don't know anything. This is the will of Brahma, and as a slave, I am only following the orders of the princess."

"Where is the princess?"

"The princess had already gone out before you came, gone, gone..."

When Miss Qiu said this, she suddenly let out a shrill wail, her expression was twisted and frightened, and her pupils seemed to be completely different from before.

It's like becoming a completely different person.

Wei Tao used his qi-gazing technique to observe, and found that what was reflected in Miss Qiu's pupils was not his figure, but a row of buildings that looked somewhat familiar.

She seemed to be walking slowly.

Because the courtyard wall in Miss Qiu's eyes was getting closer and closer, she could clearly see a closed wooden door soon.

"This feeling is almost the same as the sudden change in Bai Youyou's eyes before he died."

Wei Tao held his breath and concentrated, observing carefully.

His eyes were focused on the center of Miss Qiu's pupils, and when he saw the closed wooden door, his eyes suddenly focused on it.

Whether it was the house, the courtyard wall or the wooden door, they all gave him a strange feeling.

Without any warning, there was a sudden click.

Miss Qiu's wailing was stuck in her throat.

She had no chance to continue screaming.

There was blood pouring out of his mouth, and there was a thin red line around his white neck.

The next moment, blood dripped down and quickly dyed the clothes she was wearing red.

Plop!

A head slipped quietly and fell to the ground.

He rolled forward a short distance and landed right in front of one of the unfolded human skins.

The plump and plump head was connected to the thin body, and they were connected by dark red blood, presenting a contrasting, bloody and terrifying picture.

"Wei Daozi, I have sent those maids and servants of Qiu Mansion..."

Feng Yunhai happened to come here at this time.

He stopped in front of the warehouse door, only to feel a blur in front of his eyes, as if a breeze blew by his side, and then disappeared without a trace.

"Just now I clearly saw Wei Daozi inside, but a gust of wind blew him away and disappeared."

Feng Yunhai's face was full of doubts, and he stretched his head to look inside the warehouse.

He suddenly froze and shuddered. His scalp was numb, his whole body was cold, and his consciousness was almost blank.

The Feng family residence.

A maid carrying a medicine box walked slowly.

From time to time, she encountered patrolling guards and other servants on the road. She would take the initiative to step aside and wait for the other party to pass by before continuing forward.

Soon after, she came to the door of the inner house where the female family members lived.

Facing the two warriors guarding the door, she raised the medicine box and said, "This is the medicinal material that Miss will use in the afternoon."
