If you don't count, you will die

Chapter 17

When I came to the river, I saw that the river was not very different from other rivers. The river was very wide and stretched in all directions, communicating in all directions, but the water was not rushing.

This river has nurtured several generations of people in Zeshui City, but it does not have a name.

Looking at the surface of the water in silence, squatting by the river and stretching out his hands to fiddle with the river water a few times, it was cool at first, but after a long time it became a bit bitter, the river water in April is not warm.

After a while, he stood up and walked straight into the river.

The river water gradually disappeared from the feet, submerging the corners of the robe, knees, and waist. At this point, Shen Mofang stopped and stood quietly for a long time. The piercing river water soaked his clothes, and the overbearing chill seemed to hit his bones. When I closed my eyes, I could only hear the slow sound of water, the slight sound of wind, and the rustling of trees not far away.

His consciousness seemed to have entered a strange circle, sinking into the sound of wind and water, unable to extricate himself.

He suddenly felt breathless, as if his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth were filled with water, he opened his eyes suddenly, only to find that he had sunk into the river at some point, the sunlight above his head was reflected from the water surface, and the distant water surface shimmered Lin.

When did he sink into this water?

Silence began to struggle, and tried to swim up with his limbs, but found that his limbs were very heavy. He turned his head, and saw his limbs were being hugged by four broken and terrifying corpses through the swaying river. The strength is great, it is exactly the appearance of four corpses that Shen Mo saw in the ice room of the law enforcement hall, the corpses were torn apart and then stitched together, they were smiling at Shen Mo with their mouths open, and spitting out from their mouths while laughing Blood and guts.

The harsh laughter of men and women pierced through the river into the silent mind.

Silence's heart palpitated, and the long-term lack of oxygen made him dizzy, and gradually half-closed his eyes, his consciousness drifted away.

Suddenly there was a stabbing pain in his neck, and the pain was transmitted all the way to the brain along the neck, stimulating his nerves, causing him to open his eyes instantly and gasp for breath.

He raised his head, and was facing a pair of cold black eyes, which seemed to be filled with anger, and there was no smile on his lips, it was Lin Mu.

I saw Lin Mu looking down at him, with a trace of blood on his lips.

Shen Shen looked around again, they stood firmly in the river, they did not sink into the river as Shen Shen saw just now, and there was no such horrible corpse hugging his limbs.

The pain around his neck made him tilt his head, and he touched it with his hand. There was a deep tooth mark, lightly tapped with his fingertips, and when he stretched out his eyes, he saw that blood was already oozing, and Lin Mu bit him.

Lin Mu turned around and dragged Shen Mo to the river bank. He had great strength and walked very fast, dragging Shen Mo staggering.

On the river bank, Lin Mu let go, turned around, the anger on his face disappeared as if it was an illusion of silence just now, he slowly straightened his soaked robe, brushed the blood on his lips with his thumb frivolously, and said: "You lost your mind."

Mo Mo looked back at the vast river, recalled what he had just seen, and said, "What is it to lose one's mind?"

"It's just heresy. You didn't know when you took the mind-absorbing medicine, but just now the drug's effect kicked in, and you stood in the river and held your breath. If I didn't wake you up, you might suffocate yourself to death."

Drugged for insanity?

when?

Silently thinking carefully, they met a lot of people along the way, and there were more chances of getting the distraction medicine, so at this moment, they didn't have any clue.

Lin Mu: "I think we will be watched immediately when we arrive in Zeshui City, we must be extremely careful in our actions after that."

Silence: "Surveillance? The perpetrator should be the one who monitors."

Ling Mu was noncommittal, reached out and twisted the water stains on the long sleeves, and said, "Go back to the Law Enforcement Hall first."

On the way back, Shen Mo looked sideways at Lin Mu and said suddenly: "You can hit me or something, why did you bite me?"

The corners of Lin Mu's lips rose, and she didn't deny it: "If you pay me back, we're even."

Shen Mo took a deep breath, strode forward, and ignored him.

Back in the Law Enforcement Hall, Lin Mu and Shen Mo each went to change into clean clothes, Wen Pu didn't ask more questions when he saw the two of them like this, and just followed Lin Mu to leave.

After changing his clothes, Shen Mo called Chang Li again, and he found some other divination methods in the fortune-telling system that he could try for the dead.

Chang Li was frowning at this time, looked at Shen Mo and asked, "Your Excellency, do you want the birthdays of those 15 people?"

Nodding silently, "Exactly."

Another method of divination that he found that could be tried on the dead was to count birthdays.

Because of Jing Bozhong's case, he succeeded in fortune-telling, so he only thought of this and imprisoned himself, but he forgot that there are countless ways to deduce fortune-telling in the fortune-telling system, and he can find other calculation methods among them. But whether this counts as the success of the birthday is another matter.

Chang Li frowned. Although he admired the courage of the little national teacher, he didn't believe in divination and fortune-telling, let alone tell the fortune of the dead. However, according to the instructions of the national teacher, he had to submit the birthdays of 15 people one by one. .

Shen Mo took the birthdays of these 15 people and deduced them one by one.

Holding Haosu in his hand, he volleyed to describe the birthday of one of them, trying to calculate it over and over again.

Different from palm prints, palm prints are the fate that a person carries with him from birth to old age and death. There are secrets hidden in the twists and turns, and the calculation is not complicated. The birth date is also the birth date of the dead. , is another method of deduction, and silence should be tried slowly.

Therefore, Silent's deduction was not smooth, and it was fruitless for fifteen birthdays in a row.

Lin Mu leaned against the door at some point, looking at the black veiled young man with sweat dripping from his forehead, his wet forehead hair sticking to his face, his lips were pale due to being frozen in the river for a long time, holding Hao Su in his hand There is a sense of fragility, fragility and fragility, which is depicted over and over again.

He sighed, and said casually: "I can't calculate the forward direction, how about trying the reverse direction? Anyway, he is dead."

Silent for a moment, looked at Lin Mu through the black veil, unconsciously licked the dry corners of his lips with his tongue, then reversed the deduction method according to what Lin Mu said, and re-introduced the horoscopes of the 15 people's birthdays one by one. Calculate it.

This time, there was indeed a movement in someone's birthday horoscope, but this hexagram was also unimaginable.

This hexagram has no hexagram words and no hexagram name, just a strong belief.

help me.

He bowed his head silently, this birthday came from a girl.

It was the girl who couldn't see what was missing, but the girl's body was also torn apart, so how could she ask for help if she couldn't die anymore?

But this hexagram really conveyed the girl's thoughts, save me, who will save me, this is obviously a phenomenon of the hexagram of a living person, but the person who made the hexagram is not a living person.

how can that be possible?Her body is still frozen in the basement ice room of the Law Enforcement Hall.

Shen Mo looked up, watching Lin Mu whisper the divination result, "She is asking for help."

help?The dead call for help?

Chang Li, who was standing quietly beside him, frowned, and suddenly began to feel that the Master of the State Teacher was unreliable.

Lin Mu narrowed his eyes, turned and left, "Come with me, and go to the underground ice room."

Shen Mo frowned, thinking that Lin Mu must be going to see the girl's body, so she followed immediately.

Chang Li's frown became tighter and tighter. Zeshui City had such a major case of consciencelessness. The most anxious person was him, the head of the local law enforcement hall. At this time, he accompanied the national teacher to make trouble. The Lord also followed the national teacher to make trouble, and felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he was forced by authority and dared not say anything.

Arriving at the underground ice room, Lin Mu pointed at the girl's body and said, "Find me."

Shen Mo looked at the girl, frowning.

With the exception of this one, every other body was missing a piece, and it must have been no coincidence that there must be some kind of meaning.

While waiting for Wu Zuo to arrive, Shen Mo squatted next to the girl. After receiving such a sad and helpless hexagram for help, the hideous and terrifying corpse seemed normal at this time. He looked at the girl's closed eyes, and suddenly In a flash of inspiration, he reached out and touched the girl's head.

He slowly groped along the girl's black hair, which was supposed to be black and smooth, but now it was dirty and sticky, over and over again, carefully. After a long time, he withdrew his hand and stood up.

Chang Li watched helplessly as Shen Mo stroked the girl's hair affectionately, the corners of his mouth twitched and twitched, trying to hold back the scolding.

At this time, Wu did it.

Mo Mo said without looking back: "Come here, open her head."

Wu Zuo hurried over at this time, sweating profusely, and still not breathing well. After hearing the silent words, he lost his breath for a while, coughed loudly, and dropped the things in his hands to the ground.

Open, open her head?

Open?
