"Cuckoo, cluck, cluck..."

A few chirps of birds suddenly sounded in Bunzu Alley, which cheered up the spirits of the night watchmen who were ambushing here.

Zhu Xiucai was still looking up at the sky just a moment ago, muttering: "The dark clouds cover the moon and it's going to rain, right? The clothes I changed and washed after I was released from prison today are still hanging out."

At this moment, after hearing the sound of the bird, he had a serious expression on his face. While looking in the direction of the 'cuckoo' sound, he whispered, "Come here?"

Qin Shaoyou and Cui Yougui didn't speak, but nodded slightly, and, like Zhu Xiucai, quietly looked in the direction of the 'cuckoo' sound.

It turned out that these 'cuckoo' sounds were not real bird calls, but a special warning mechanism of the night watchman.

Qin Shaoyou had people set up this kind of mechanism in several places that must pass through Wenzu Lane early on. Once something appeared around it, it would be activated and it would make a sound similar to that of a bird to warn.

However, Qin Shaoyou and others who were lying on the roof heard the warning sound of 'cuckoo', but they tried their best to open their eyes wide, but they didn't see the ghost.

Zhu Xiucai blinked his eyes and rubbed his hands again, but he still didn't see anything.

He couldn't help being a little confused, and nudged Cui Yougui who was beside him with his elbow, and asked in a low voice: "Old Taoist, do you see where the ghost is? Why didn't I see anything?"

Cui Yougui shook his head lightly: "I didn't see it either, and I didn't even notice the ghost's breath."

Zhu Xiucai couldn't help frowning: "Could it be that the demon ghost didn't come, and the warning mechanism was accidentally touched?"

Cui Yougui also had such doubts, but before he could speak, Qin Shaoyou suddenly made a 'silence' gesture to them, and then pointed to a direction in Wenzu Lane, signaling them to go there Look.

Cui Yougui and Zhu Xiucai quickly cheered up and looked in the direction of his finger.

But they looked left and right, but still saw nothing.

Zhu Xiucai turned his head to the side and looked at Qin Shaoyou blankly.

Qin Shaoyou had no choice but to remind in a low voice: "Look at the ground, there is a piece of 'land' moving."

Land?

Cui Yougui and Zhu Xiucai were taken aback when they heard the words, and hurriedly looked in the direction of Qin Shaoyou's finger again.

Qin Shaoyou detailed the directions for them in a low voice: "Near the street on the right, coming towards the alley, there is a pile of fallen leaves in front, and I just passed a pawn shop..."

Under Qin Shaoyou's guidance, Cui Yougui and Zhu Xiucai really saw a moving 'land'.

This 'land' perfectly blends with the street ground in Wenzu Lane. In addition, after the moon is covered by dark clouds, the surrounding light is dim, making it difficult to find its existence.

If it weren't for Qin Shaoyou's [bright eyesight] talent, his ability to observe the subtleties, and being able to see things that ordinary people can't see, I'm afraid he wouldn't have noticed this 'field'.

And if it weren't for Qin Shaoyou's guidance, Cui Yougui, Zhu Xiucai and others might have to wait until this 'land' moved to their feet before they could realize that something was wrong.

At that time, it will be dangerous...

"The earth can actually become a spirit?"

Zhu Xiucai couldn't help being amazed after being surprised.

Although he is well-informed, he has heard that stones, trees, and even horns can become spirits, but he has never heard that land can also become spirits.

Zhu Xiucai first flattered Qin Shaoyou, praising him for his sharp eyesight, and how he can still find monsters hidden in such a way.

Immediately afterwards, he asked Cui Youxu: "Old Taoist, what's the situation with that 'land'? Is it an escape technique or an illusion? It can't really be the land that becomes the essence?"

Cui Youxuan replied: "It shouldn't be escapism or illusion, because I didn't perceive the fluctuation of the demon energy. It doesn't seem like the earth is becoming a spirit, but it may be that this demon has some kind of special talent, which can perfectly integrate itself with the ground." When I was traveling before, I once met a butterfly demon. It had a special talent. It could transform itself into the appearance of a dead tree and leaf, just like the real thing. Once this butterfly demon escaped into the forest, its eyesight Even the best masters are hard to find."

Hearing this, Qin Shaoyou couldn't help muttering in his heart: "A butterfly demon with the talent of turning into dead trees and dead leaves? Could this be a monster cultivated by dead leaves and butterflies? According to this, the one in the alley can compete with Is it possible that the ghosts that merged with the surrounding environment are chameleons? Aren’t chameleons distributed in the tropics, why did they come here? And why do they suck human blood to arrest human souls and judge people for their crimes?”

Qin Shaoyou was freeing his mind to guess, when Zhu Xiucai approached his ear and asked in a low voice, "My lord, do you want to do it?"

"Don't worry, let's see."

Qin Shaoyou shook his head lightly.

He was afraid that this moving 'land' wasn't the demon itself. After all, even Cui Yougui hadn't sensed the demonic aura from it. If it was a means of detection or investigation by the demon, wouldn't it be a shock to act rashly?

Secondly, although they also set up traps in Wenzu Lane, the main traps were concentrated in Xiang Piao Piao's residence.

Regardless of whether this 'land' is the ghost itself or a means of scouting, it will definitely go to Xiang Piao Piao's residence.

Because Lai Cha and others were there at the moment, the ghost smelled their scent and wanted to rush over to judge them.

After 'Dipi' enters Xiang Piao Piao's residence, his identity will also be confirmed.

If it is really the ghost itself, it will not be too late to do it then, and it can be guaranteed that there will be no accidents.

Fearing that someone would be unable to restrain himself, Qin Shaoyou ordered again in a low voice: "Pass it on, let everyone obey the order, and don't act rashly!"

"Yes." Zhu Xiucai took the order, quietly slipped down the roof, hid in the darkness, and conveyed Qin Shaoyou's order to his companions.

After a while, Zhu Xiucai returned to the roof.

And that piece of land has come to the alley.

It didn't notice Qin Shaoyou and others who were lying on the roof nearby, and moved straight to the door of Xiang Piao Piao's residence, and then slowly stood up.

As it stands up, the effect of mimicry disappears, and the 'ground' reveals its original appearance—it turns out to be a wooden sign.

This made Qin Shaoyou and the others who were lying on the roof stunned.

They had guessed many things, but they didn't expect that the 'land' would be a wooden sign.

How could the wooden sign have the ability of mimicry?

Just as they were surprised, they saw the erected wooden sign slowly floating up, and a figure floated out of the wooden sign and stood in the alley.

This is a woman with a graceful figure, especially a pair of pectoralis major muscles, which are very exaggerated.

Her appearance is not bad either, there is a bit of seductive vixen in her beauty, people can remember her at a glance, and even remember her deeply.

Zhu Xiucai's expression changed slightly after seeing this woman.

Because the woman and the wooden sign were in the alley below, he didn't make a sound this time, but lip-synced to Qin Shaoyou and Cui Youxie.

"The fragrance is fluttering!"

Qin Shaoyou read these three words from Zhu Xiucai's mouth.

Xiang Piaopiao's soul was indeed detained and enslaved!

And since Xiang Piaopiao's soul appeared, the wooden sign below was undoubtedly the ghost that took her life!

Qin Shaoyou's eyes were fixed on the wooden sign, trying to see clearly what it was.

After releasing Xiang Piao Piao's soul, the wooden sign stopped floating, slowly fell, and stuck on Xiang Piao Piao's back.

This look reminded Qin Shaoyou of the condemned prisoners on the execution ground.

When a death row prisoner is beheaded, not only will his hands be tied behind his back with a rope, but a wooden sign will also be inserted on his back.

The name and crime of the prisoner will be written on the wooden sign, and a large circle will be drawn with cinnabar, and the word "cut" will be written inside.

This brand is called the Desperate Card in the folks, but it is called the Guiyou Card officially!

So this murderous ghost is actually a ghost made of cards?

This can explain why this ghost likes to pronounce its crimes before killing people.

But at the same time, new doubts emerged in Qin Shaoyou's mind.

Most of the crime cards are one-off, how could they become monsters?
