After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 123 The Western Region Ghost

Thinking of the Western Regions, Xu Yingying's mind moved, "Since you are Zhang Xiaohan's maid, you must be from the Western Regions too?"

"I came to the Central Plains from the Western Regions with Zhang Xiaohan." Tu Anna didn't understand and answered truthfully.

"Then do you know a way to cure the cold poison?" Xu Yingying's face lit up and she asked quickly.

"Cold poison? Sir, do you want to cure the cold poison?" Tuanna's face flashed with confusion, but she was smart and quickly reacted, "If you help me to avenge my death, I will definitely get the antidote for the cold poison for you."

Xu Yingying was very satisfied with Tuanna's understanding. Tuanna was a ghost, so it was easier for Xu Yingying to control her. Moreover, few people in the world could see ghosts directly, so it was easier for Tuanna to act.

"Okay, in that case, I will avenge you, but you also need to remember that I want the antidote for the cold poison, and don't try to frame me with that fake. I can tell whether it is the antidote or not." After hearing the answer she wanted, Xu Yingying was very satisfied and reached an agreement with Tuanna on the spot.

"Please rest assured, sir. I will never break the contract. If I do, my soul will be torn into pieces and I will never be reincarnated." This was a very serious oath for a ghost, and Xu Yingying felt more relieved.

Xu Yingying's life was peaceful and quiet, but outside the house there was an uproar.

Since Huang Shaohua took over Jun County, it has been well governed and the entire town is very peaceful and tranquil.

However, the sudden murder disrupted the rare peace in Jun County.

I don't know when it started, but many men in the city died suddenly, and without exception, they all died in those brothels, commonly known as "horse madness".

Huang Shaohua originally thought it was just an isolated case, but as time went on, more and more men died in such places. The deaths of so many people made Huang Shaohua begin to take this matter seriously. He sent people to investigate, but found nothing, and men continued to die.

Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, the people were also in panic. Huang Shaohua knew very well that if he didn't seize the time to resolve the problem now, he would not be able to save his own life.

In desperation, Huang Shaohua came to find Li Siqi.

Huang Shaohua entered the mansion after the meeting. Li Siqi was drinking tea in the front hall. Seeing Huang Shaohua's serious expression, he was a little surprised.

He knew a little about the murder case and thought it was just a desperate thief who committed the crime and he could just arrest him. However, Huang Shaohua suddenly came to him and Li Siqi had a bad feeling.

"What does County Lady Huang want to see me about?" Li Siqi asked after taking a sip of tea.

Huang Shaohua fell to his knees in front of Li Siqi and said, "Your Highness, please help me with this matter..." Huang Shaohua told Li Siqi in detail what had happened in the city.

After listening, Li Siqi also felt that something was not right, but he still comforted Huang Shaohua first, "You get up first, don't worry, comfort the people, and the men in the family should not go to that kind of place recently, and take care of their lower body. As for the murder case, I will send someone to investigate."

Li Siqi's people's ability to investigate was naturally not comparable to Huang Shaohua's, but even so, they still couldn't find out anything. Li Siqi couldn't help but attribute the matter to a supernatural event.

If this was really the case, Li Siqi naturally couldn't solve it. While thinking, he thought of Xu Yingying who was still in a cold war with him, and instantly, he felt his head hurt even more.

She had quarreled with Xu Yingying a few days ago, and now something needed her help. He wished he could shut his mouth instead of being in a dilemma now.

After sending his men away, Li Siqi prepared himself mentally for a long time before walking towards Xu Yingying's yard.

He knocked on the door without saying anything until Xu Yingying called out "Come in", then he pushed the door open and walked in.

Seeing that it was Li Siqi, Xu Yingying's face darkened instantly, and she looked listless, as if she disliked Li Siqi very much.

Li Siqi also felt a little embarrassed. He cleared his throat and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Seeing Li Siqi standing there without saying anything, Xu Yingying felt even more upset and asked in a muffled voice, "Your Highness, why did you have time to come to see me today?"

"Ahem..." Li Siqi coughed awkwardly, then said, "There have been several murders in the county recently. I sent people to investigate, but found nothing. So I hope you can help find out what's going on."

Li Siqi stated his purpose, but Xu Yingying just said "Oh" and said nothing more.

After a while, Li Siqi seemed to have let it go and said, "What happened that day was my fault. I was so angry that I said that. I'm sorry."

When Xu Yingying heard Li Siqi apologizing to her, she seemed to not believe her ears. She looked up in surprise and looked at Li Siqi, as if to confirm that he had not taken the wrong medicine.

Camellia was amazed at the side. "It's so hard to get this kid to apologize on his own initiative. Master, why don't you just agree to it? He's already given you a way out. It would be rude if you don't back down. He even asked Tuanna for the antidote for the cold poison before, but now you refuse to agree to his request?"

Under Camellia's words of persuasion or incitement, Xu Yingying finally gave Li Siqi a little good face, "Forget it, I will go with His Highness to take a look. What happened that day was not entirely His Highness's fault. Let's just forget about it."

Li Siqi was hoping for this and nodded quickly, fearing that Xu Yingying would go back on her word.

Xu Yingying packed her things and followed Li Siqi to the place where the body was found.

Seeing the black air on the corpse, Xu Yingying knew that this matter must be related to ghosts. After a careful inspection, Xu Yingying became more and more certain of her thoughts.

Li Siqi had been observing Xu Yingying's expression. When he saw her stand up, he quickly asked, "How is it?"

"Yes, this is what the erotic ghost did."

"Sexy ghost?" Li Siqi was a little puzzled.

"As the name suggests, it is a ghost that kills people with its beauty. Most of these ghosts are extremely beautiful and good at bewitching people. They like to possess women. Women possessed by beautiful ghosts will become more and more beautiful and more and more seductive, making people unable to help but get close to them. These dead men died because of this." Xu Yingying patiently explained to Li Siqi.

"However, this ghost has killed so many people, so it must not be an ordinary ghost. It may be more difficult to deal with. Where did these people go before they died?" Xu Yingying asked.

"They all went to Yihongyuan... Yihongyuan... Could it be that Zhang Xiaohan?" Li Siqi suddenly thought of something and became a little excited.
