The weirdest thing is that when he walked in and squatted down, the hearts of each corpse were gone!

Most of the corpses still exist with a look of horror and pain on their faces, and they are afraid that they have suffered the cruel thing of being taken from their hearts before they die, after all, even if they are injured, they will remain for a while, and it seems that the murderer is the hand that moved immediately.

It stands to reason that there is a good chance that something has happened to the village.

However, the strange thing is that the wound seems to be caused by a weapon similar to a sword or knife, and the blood is flowing all over the ground, and the body is missing only the heart.

It was a little different from the goblins he had encountered the first few times.

Compared to ghosts, he still thinks that it is more likely to be human.

But why slaughter villages, and what are these hearts?

Jiang Yang had doubts in his heart.

Suppressing his doubts for the time being, he has not forgotten the main purpose of his visit this time.

Since the murderer slaughtered the village, there is a high probability that the book is still in this village.

He stood up, first searched the body of the young man outside, but did not find it, and then went into the house to continue the search.

"How could it not be? Maybe the boy didn't come back?"

Jiang Yang had searched all the rooms, but he had not found the so-called books at all.

To be precise, he didn't even see a few paper books.

This is very unacceptable, and it is clear from the old man's description that this village is not like this, and the boy alone bought a few copies at once.

"No, I must have missed something. He thought to himself.

For the people in the village, books are relatively expensive items, and they will definitely be hidden when they are not read, and the child's family is not too bad, so the house will not be too bad.

After analyzing it step by step, Jiang Yang came to a house in the middle of the village again.

According to his thoughts, here the possibilities are the greatest.

The corpse of the man in the living room was still lying motionless at the table, and there was a female corpse on the bed in the bedroom, which seemed to be exactly the same as when he first came.

"Where could it be?"

Jiang Yang turned around and still didn't gain anything.

"Huh, the woman's body?"

Suddenly, he noticed something, and turned his head away as if he didn't know anything.

"This village is really dead. ”

Pretending to sigh sadly, Jiang Yang pushed open the door and walked out.

A short time after he went out, a bed board next to the female corpse was lifted, and a young man's head cautiously popped out.

After making sure that Jiang Yang really left, he patted his chest, as if relieved.

"Hello kids. ”

Suddenly, a voice sounded behind his head, and his face froze, and he turned his head with difficulty, only to see the man standing at the bedroom window looking at him with a playful look.

"Big ...... Good afternoon, big brother. The boy swallowed unconsciously.

"Come out, I'm not a bad person. Jiang Yang smiled, trying to make himself look more approachable.

The boy crawled out of the hiding place with a hard head, and was all discovered, and it was useless to hide any longer.

"My name is Wang Beifeng, and I'm here to investigate the destruction of the village, children, you can tell me anything you know as a survivor. ”

is all disfigured, so naturally he has to change his name, and in the future, Wang Beifeng will be his identity acting in secret.

"This, Brother Wang, my mother asked me to hide below all the time, I don't know anything, I only heard a scream from above. The young man was hesitant, his eyes dodged, obviously he didn't trust him very much, and only then did he add, "Brother Wang can call me Qiao Cheng." ”

"That's right. Jiang Yang nodded, no longer asked, but asked about what he cared about, "Then where are the important things in your village usually placed, I'll see if I can find any clues." ”

Jiang Yang speculated that the young man was the one who bought the book, but he didn't ask directly, which was too deliberate, but it would make the young man vigilant.

"This ......" Qiao Cheng hesitated a little.

"If you tell me, I can do you a small favor. Jiang Yang was not in a hurry, and waited quietly for Qiao Cheng's reply.

"Then I want you to send me to the Luo family in the capital, okay?" Qiao Cheng hesitated.

Although his mother told him not to trust others easily, it seems that this eldest brother seems to be kind at present.

The food in the secret room was also eaten, otherwise he would not have come out to find something to eat.

And he is a thin teenager, it is too difficult to survive here, his mother asked him to go to the capital to find the Luo family before she died, he didn't know where the Luo family was.

The last time he went to the capital, he also followed his father, and he had to go downstream to take a boat, and it was very dangerous for him to carry money alone, but now there is a person who seems to be reliable, and he subconsciously wants to rely on it.

In any case, after all, he is only a child.

"Locke, no problem. Jiang Yang immediately responded.

The Luo family, isn't it the Luo Ying family on the ship, and when he took the things and rushed downstream, it was too late to throw this little guy to her, which was also a coincidence.

"I don't know the rest of the people, my father and my mother like to put important things in the secret room, which is where I stay. Qiao Cheng gave way to the entrance behind him, and he decided to believe the man in front of him.

He can't do much other than trust men.

Even if he doesn't say it, in case it angers the other party, it will not be good news for him.

It's good enough to get a promise, and people have to be content.

"Thank you, little one. ”

Sure enough, in the secret room, Jiang Yang found the book called "Travels in the Northern Desert", received it in his arms, and when he came out, Qiao Cheng was still waiting for him in place.

"Let's go, little one. ”

Jiang Yang beckoned.

As soon as the two of them walked to the door, Jiang Yang suddenly stopped.

"You hide and don't move here, I call you to come out again!" he held Qiao Cheng down and said in a low voice.

"Hmm. Qiao Cheng nodded subconsciously.

Jiang Yang walked out and saw a few red lanterns inexplicably appearing on the edge of the village, floating around.

Even in broad daylight, he felt a chill.

He leaned against the house and approached the red lantern slowly.

It wasn't until he was still more than ten meters away from the red lantern that Jiang Yang saw clearly that it was not a red lantern at all, but a ghost glowing with blood-red light.

A round body with only a large mouth with sharp teeth.

With each passing corpse, the red light would stop, open its mouth, and swallow the whole corpse, the sound of chewing echoing through the village.

Even if there were no other organs, Jiang Yang could guess the happy mood of the ghost.

"This ghost was attracted by the corpse. He gripped the magic sword at his waist and prepared to strike.

"Anyone?"

Suddenly, he heard the sound of footsteps and lowered his hand again.

Apart from him, there were other people in the village.
