Gang Ye didn’t give Shen Yaowei a chance and took her chopsticks.
“If you don’t like it, you can turn the chopsticks the other way…” Before Shen Yaowei could finish speaking, she saw that Cang Ye was already eating without hesitation, so she swallowed the rest of her words.
Cang Ye ate very quickly. The last half plate of roasted meat was quickly emptied.
Shen Yaowei kept looking at Cang Ye, then felt as if someone was looking at them.
Glancing at the long corridor, Shen Yaowei saw that Yao Qingyi had already left and secretly took note.
In a room not far away, a figure was hidden in the darkness. He stood at the door and observed the two people in the pavilion through the crack of the door.
His gaze locked on Shen Yaowei. The figure’s lips curled into a cold smile as he raised his hand to push open the door.
At this moment, a fiery red signal flare suddenly exploded in the air.
With a loud bang, the bright red flare dyed the entire sky red.
Shen Yaowei and Cang Ye stood up at the same time. The two of them looked at each other and recognized that this was a signal flare specially used by the Imperial Preceptor’s residence. If not for something urgent, they would never have used it under ordinary circ.u.mstances.
“The signal flare was released in the mourning hall. Let’s go straight to the mourning hall.” As soon as Cang Ye finished speaking, he went straight to the mourning hall with Shen Yaowei.
The two of them were extremely fast and quickly arrived at the mourning hall.
Apart from them, everyone from the Imperial Preceptor’s residence who was busy roasting meat stopped and rushed over.
Shen Yaowei stood outside the mourning hall and looked in. Then, she looked at Yao Qingyi, who was standing at the entrance of the mourning hall. “Senior Brother Yao, what happened?”
“I rushed over just now to put on a talisman, but I realized that General Baili’s corpse was missing.” Yao Qingyi’s expression was dark as she led everyone into the mourning hall.
The mourning hall was quickly filled with people from the Imperial Preceptor’s residence. They stood in a circle around the coffin and looked at the empty coffin at the same time.
Shen Yaowei approached the coffin and keenly smelled an abnormal stench. “Why does this smell like blood resentment?”
As soon as she said this, the expressions of everyone present became especially solemn.
“Miss Shen, you can’t joke about this. Only zombies will have blood resentment. The general is highly respected and has always done good. How could he become that kind of demon?” A man frowned and said.
“The great general is indeed a good person, but he fought on the battlefield in his early years, and his hands were stained with a lot of blood, causing a lot of killing. This resulted in his unfulfilled wish after his death, and his hostility didn’t dissipate. These all meet the requirements for corpse transformation,” Shen Yaowei said slowly.
“Yaoyao is right. Moreover, even if it’s not heaven’s will, it can be done by humans.” As Cang Ye spoke, he pulled out the dagger at his waist and cut open the golden lining of the coffin.
With a sizzle, the silk lining was torn open, and a thick stench followed. There was actually a black talisman hidden under it.
There was a corpse transformation talisman drawn with black snake blood on the talisman. A dried black body was curled up in a ball on the upper left side.
This position happened to be where Baili Hui’s heart was when he was lying in the coffin.
At this moment, there was an uproar. Everyone took a step back and quickly covered their noses, afraid that they would vomit from the stench.
Cang Ye retracted his hand and turned to look behind him. He happened to see the shocked Baili Se standing at the door.
Baili Se had obviously heard everything. She raised her trembling hand to cover her mouth. “This, this is impossible… Who did these things?!”
“We should be the ones asking you this question. Miss Baili Se, you were the one who sent us all away to the garden. What did you do while we were barbecuing?” Cang Ye’s eyes were sharp as he stared at Baili Se and questioned..
