Today I hold the world

Chapter 335 Murder in the City

It's not that Yang Chuanfu has never heard of the theory of gods, ghosts and demons. Since he was a child, he was very fond of moving and could not keep quiet, and he often heard rumors and strange things.

But today, he has opened his eyes and truly saw what is a fairy.

The blue light from a broken wooden sword lasted for less than half an hour, until the blood stain on it completely dried up and dissipated, the blue light gradually dimmed.

The night had lightened a lot, and Zhong Shouyi had already woken up, sitting under the eaves with Yang Chuanfu in a daze.

The Ling'er girl in the room only cried for a moment, and then fell asleep after being coaxed. After what happened just now, Yang Chuanfu didn't plan to go back to his yard again.

The neighbors who had been woken up by Yang Chuanfu's screams only found that the movement lasted for a moment. How could they care about other people's lives in the dark? He wrapped it up in his robe so that no outsiders would look at the treasure.

It's a crime to conceive a biscuit. Anyone who knows a little bit about the sinister world in this place knows the truth of not revealing wealth. If someone with a heart sees it, something will happen.

The cold wind howled, and the hot air came out from the crack of the door. Yang Chuanfu's body was alternating between hot and cold. Thanks to his strong bones, otherwise he would not be able to bear staying outside for a long time.

The two were silent for a long time, but Yang Chuanfu finally couldn't help his curiosity and asked, "Tell me, do you know what that thing is? And that broken wooden sword, which your father passed to you?"

The blood on the corners of Zhong Shouyi's mouth and fingers had already stopped. He stared at Yang Chuanfu for a long time without blinking, his eyes full of scrutiny. '

"I don't know, this sword was passed down to me by my grandfather." Zhong Shouyi replied calmly.

Seeing that Zhong Shouyi didn't intend to continue talking, Yang Chuanfu was quite annoyed, "Fart, I watched you grow up since I was a child, where did I meet your grandfather?"

In the middle of the night, he had the courage to help Zhong Shouyi out of kindness, but now seeing that this kid was still on guard against him, how could he not be annoyed.

Zhong Shouyi remained silent for a moment, then glanced at Yang Chuanfu like a fool, and said, "That's what you haven't seen before!"

Yang Chuanfu was stunned for a moment, then he recalled that Zhong Nianqing's family came here nine years ago, when the boy in front of him was four years old, so it is indeed possible that his grandfather was still alive during the period from birth to four years old.

After thinking about it again, even if his grandfather died before he was born, that still doesn't mean that his sentence 'my grandfather gave me the sword' is wrong. no problem.

"Oh, let me just say, I've never heard of the name 'Zhong Zishan'." Yang Chuanfu rubbed his head and said silently.

Looking at the snowflakes slowly falling from the sky, Yang Chuanfu had many thoughts in his mind. He didn't think there was anything strange about this family before, but today he felt that it was foggy and unfamiliar.

After living together for nine years, Zhong Nianqing has always regarded him as his apprentice, and he sees it clearly, their family is a very ordinary family, but why can Zhong Shouyi take out such a treasure?

Yang Chuanfu suddenly asked: "Your family is not a traitor from the Liang Dynasty, who came to this ghostly place to settle down in order to avoid enemies?"

As soon as this question came out, Zhong Shouyi immediately turned his eyes coldly, staring at Yang Chuanfu.

Yang Chuanfu was astonished, seeing the reaction of the boy in front of him, he had indeed hit the mark.

"Don't look like you want to kill me. I don't have any grudges against you. Your father is my master, so you can be considered my junior. Can I still harm you?" Yang Chuanfu rolled his eyes in disgust.

Since people regard him as an outsider, Yang Chuanfu didn't bother to stay any longer, got up and patted his buttocks, walked back to his small courtyard, and said: "It's not yet dawn, you kid, hurry up and sleep, you can't sleep when you go to work during the day." Don't get sleepy."

The courtyard wall is broken, and it is not easy to repair it at night, and there is no property at home, so I am too lazy to repair it.

Lying on the couch, he quickly slept until early morning, woke up and tidied up quickly, and then went out, and saw Zhong Shouyi waiting at the gate of the yard.

The two walked towards the inn together, and Yang Chuanfu asked, "Is Ling'er's meal ready?"

"Well, there are rice cakes."

"That won't work. Come back at noon to see how the two of you are doing. He's a four-year-old girl staying at home. What if he's in danger?"

"kindness."

"Is your mother better today?"

"No."

Yang Chuanfu stopped asking questions, feeling uncomfortable.

Since the death of master Zhong Nianqing, Zhong Shouyi's temperament has changed too much in the past two months. His wife is sick in bed and can't move. She can't eat a drop of rice. layer of haze.

Thinking back when my brother died, although it was lonely and uncomfortable for a while, but being adopted by the master's family, they got better very quickly. Now looking at the sufferings that the Zhong family brothers and sisters are suffering, it is more heart-wrenching than myself back then.

Most people have a heart of compassion and gratitude. Yang Chuanfu's life was saved by Zhong Shouyi's father. Now that the world has changed, when it is time for him to repay his kindness, he is obliged to do so.

His thoughts wandered, and he came back to the inn, the routine process, cleaning the table and sweeping the floor, tidying up, three tables of guests had come in the morning, busy until noon, the first floor was full of seats.

Most of the noisy voices were talking about one thing. There were more than a dozen murders in Yuancheng last night.

Dead people, not one or two, have seventeen lives.

Originally, death was not something worthy of heated discussion in the whole city. In this ghost place, there are not a few people who freeze to death every year.

The reason why there was such a commotion was that the people who died last night did not die normally, but were all killed by monsters.

Listening to the guest's discussion, Yang Chuanfu became inexplicably startled, because he happened to have experienced that weird and shocking thing last night.

When he was free, he pulled Zhong Shouyi to the back hall, urged him a few times, and then watched him leave the inn quickly.

In less than half an hour, he returned and continued to work. It seemed that nothing happened at home, so Yang Chuanfu felt relieved for the time being.

In the afternoon, two yamen servants from the county magistrate's mansion entered the inn. The people at the table at the door quickly gave up two seats. Then tell everyone about the results.

The four major residential areas in the city, the county magistrate's mansion, and two large households' mansions all suffered disasters. The people who died were all people who were already sick. They were disemboweled and eaten their livers by strange-shaped instruments. They suspected that they were sperm What monsters do.

How can the county magistrate's government deal with it? The soldiers are skinny and don't have the guts to pursue the murderer. Now to appease the people, there is probably no explanation.

Yang Chuanfu didn't care about the death of someone else's family. What shocked him more was that the two soldiers guarding the city on the west gate also died. Wasn't the thing that was forced to flee with a sting in the direction of the west gate?

"Little Six, two more jars of wine!"

"okay."

Temporarily cutting off his thoughts, Yang Chuanfu hurriedly delivered drinks to the guests and searched for Zhong Shouyi, who was serving food to another table with a calm expression.

Back at the counter, Yang Chuanfu suddenly felt a little admiration for that kid. Last night, he was so frightened that he was able to swing the wooden sword to stab monsters. Compared with him, he was indeed not as good as him.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought: "Or, Master and his family already knew that there are evil ghosts in this world, and they themselves are experts in dealing with these ghosts." '

Thinking of this, Yang Chuanfu suddenly looked at Zhong Shouyi pleasingly, he must be strong when he is persistent in everything. This kid wakes up early every day to practice kung fu at a young age. It can't be compared at all.

Thinking about the green light wooden sword again, Yang Chuanfu was even more convinced of his guess.

In the evening, because of the panic atmosphere in the city, the guests of the inn did not return for a long time, and it was going to be dark, Yang Chuanfu held the clock and said in a low voice:

"Since it's not peaceful, you should go back earlier today. Don't teach Ling'er and his wife to suffer. We won't be able to sleep tonight. If that ghost thing returns, we have to make preparations in advance to deal with it."

Zhong Shou nodded, and took off his hall uniform to reveal his own black clothes. When he was leaving, he rarely turned around and said, "Lao Liu, come back soon."

Yang Chuanfu scolded with a black face, "little thing, don't call me brother and brother, call me brother six!"

Zhong Shouyi didn't pay attention to him, he turned his head and ran into the snow.
