Chapter 41: Shocking Change

In the deep darkness, the hazy moonlight shone on the hideous and cold face of the white comrade.

His mouth was covered with blood, his exposed teeth were scarlet, and he seemed to be stained with flesh, and he was like a demon crawling out of hell, revealing a rich evil aura all over his body.

"White ...... White Brother ...... What are you doing here?" Sun Daren had never seen such a terrifying scene, his body kept retreating, and his voice trembled as he asked.

But at this moment, Bai Bei lost the demeanor of a humble gentleman on weekdays, and he let out a low roar like a beast at Sun Daren. Sun Daren's heart was shocked, and he subconsciously gathered the spiritual power around him to resist the upcoming offensive of his white comrades.

His hands were raised above his head, crossed in front of his vital point, but he didn't see Bai Tong's killing for a long time.

Sun Daren, who had calmed down the panic in his heart, looked at the gap left by his hands in confusion, and the scene in front of him made Sun Daren, who had just recovered, fall into extreme horror again.

After a roar, Bai Tongpao did not kill as straight and straight as Sun Daren thought, but he turned sideways again and squatted down with his back to Sun Daren. Sun Daren couldn't really see what Bai Tongpao was doing, but from his constantly shrugging shoulders, hooked head, and the constant chewing sound in his mouth, Sun Daren could guess eight or nine.

Sun Daren, who realized something, turned pale, his stomach churned, and he almost vomited out the wine and meat he had just eaten in his stomach.

Sun Daren leaned down and retched a few times before he calmed down, but his white comrade, who was facing away from him, was unaware of Sun Daren's noise, still lowering his head and eating the corpse of the old couple.

"What the hell are you a demon, why are you pretending to be Brother Bai!?" Sun Daren took a deep breath, and then scolded the man with a solemn expression.

Of course he wouldn't believe that the monster in front of him would be a white comrade, no matter how bad the white comrade is, after all, he can't kill people, he still has to eat human corpses, right?

It's just that although Sun Daren's angry reprimand was surprisingly loud, the white comrade who lowered his head and gnawed on the corpse didn't pay attention to Sun Daren at all, and still kept eating with his head down, as if there was nothing in this world that could arouse his concern except for the two corpses in front of him.

Sun Daren was also angry, and he scolded angrily: "Your uncle!"

As he spoke, he raised his fist and was about to smash it towards his fellow Bai, but before the posture was opened, a figure landed in front of him.

Sun Daren was stunned for a moment, stopped the offensive in his hand, he looked fixedly, but saw that the person who came was the housekeeper in the Wei Mansion - Di Xiu.

"If you punch him down, Bao Qi will kill him!" Sun Daren was still surprised why Di Xiu appeared here, but Di Xiu said at that time.

"If you die, you will die, this kind of monster that pretends to be someone else, harms people's lives, it is not a pity to die!" Sun Daren said angrily.

Di Xiu whispered, "But he's not a monster, or a white comrade." ”

When Sun Daren heard this, his eyes widened: "How is it possible? How could Brother Bai do such a thing! Look at him, let's talk here for a long time, he didn't react at all, he was clearly a monster puppet!"

In the face of Sun Daren's loud questioning, Di Xiu's face was as usual, and he said: "I have noticed his strange appearance since you met him, and I have privately used secret methods to probe his body, and his meridians are running as usual, no different from a living person, and he will never be transformed by a monster." It's just that there is a trace of gray aura in the meridian qi, and I tried to probe the inside of that breath, but that thing is like a spirit, and it cleverly evades my perception several times. It seems that someone with a heart is secretly manipulating, and the reason why Bai Tongpao has become what he is now is most likely because of the gray aura in his body. ”

Sun Daren frowned when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice: "That is to say, someone controlled Brother Bai and made such a hurtful ......."

Speaking of this, Sun Daren was stunned, he seemed to think of something, and at that time he raised his head and looked at Di Xiu with strange eyes, and asked, "But, Uncle Di, how do you know when I met him?"

At first, Sun Daren thought that the other party sensed the abnormality here, but after listening to the other party's words, Sun Daren sensed that something was wrong, and it seemed that the appearance of Dixiu was not a coincidence, but a ......

Facing Sun Daren's questioning, Di Xiu nodded very frankly: "I followed you, and I have been following you since you left the Wei Mansion." ”

"Why!?" Sun Daren suddenly jumped to his feet and asked.

Di Xiu's face was calm: "Wei Gongzi instructed before the retreat, saying that you often get into trouble, and he has to be busy with cultivation at the moment and can't get out, so let me watch you in case you cause any trouble during his retreat." ”

Hearing this, Sun Daren was a little angry, and he shouted loudly: "When have I ever caused trouble......

But as soon as he finished saying this, Di Xiu handed him a cold gaze, which seemed to be burning as if he wanted to see Sun Daren from the inside out.

Sun Daren suddenly felt weak, his head lowered unconsciously, and his voice was a little lower: "Okay, maybe I did cause trouble a few times ...... once in a while."

But Dexiu didn't intend to let him go, and his eyes still fell on him. Sun Daren was a little overwhelmed. He hurriedly turned his head to Bai Tongbei and said, "Then what should we do now?"

"Let's take him back first. Di Xiu was not far away, which made Sun Daren too embarrassed, so he simply got off the donkey down the slope, and he didn't dwell on that issue anymore.

Sun Daren nodded knowingly, looked at the old couple who were already cold, and asked, "What about them?"

Dexiu frowned, his face a little ugly: "I will send someone to deal with it, and I will give them an explanation, but before that, we must find the culprit first." ”

Sun Daren also had a priority, he frowned and muffled his answer, and then made a move with Di Xiu, wanting to take down the white comrades who were focusing on enjoying the delicious food at the moment.

......

Bai Tongpao's resistance was much more violent than Sun Daren imagined, but fortunately, Di Xiu's cultivation was profound, and he found an opportunity to stun Bai Tongpao without hurting his life, and then the two disguised him as drunk and returned to Wei Mansion with support.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

......

For the next hour or so, there were bursts of heart-rending beastly roars from the Wei Mansion's mansion. Fortunately, the Wei Mansion is big enough, Sun Daren and Di Xiu placed Bai Tongpao in the firewood room in the inner courtyard, and his voice could not penetrate the Wei Mansion, otherwise such a terrible wail would not cause a riot.

"What should I do? Do you want to call Ah Lai to take a look?" Sun Daren stood at the door of the firewood room, looking at the white comrade who had been acting extremely violent and roaring incessantly since he woke up, and asked in a solemn tone.

Di Xiu is a serious person, but he is a little helpless about the situation in front of him. He had previously probed the situation in the body of Bai Tongpao from the air, but there was no result, and he thought that after bringing it back, he would be able to detect something by using spiritual power to wander away. But what disappointed him was that the strange power entrenched in Bai Tongpai's body was extremely cunning, and he retreated at the slightest touch of it, and he didn't give Dixiu the slightest chance to contact him.

Di Xiu thought that in this way, there were only two explanations, either the essence of that power was several levels higher than the power that Di Xiu mastered, or the culprit who performed this evil method was cultivated several times stronger than Di Xiu. Whatever the outcome, the matter in front of him was obviously beyond Dixiu's control, he sank his brows, pondered for a few breaths, and finally said, "It seems that I can only interrupt Childe's retreat." ”

Sun Daren was stunned for a moment, nodded secretly, got up and was about to walk out of the firewood room and said, "Then I'll call him." ”

As he spoke, he had just taken a step, but he saw four men dressed as domestic servants suddenly walk in with two corpses and place them in the firewood room. Sun Daren stopped and looked fixedly, but it was the corpses of the old couple who died in the hands of Bai Tongpao.

He asked, "How did you bring them back?"

Di Xiu, who was holding a wire that he had found out of nowhere, was surrounding his white comrades to reinforce his bindings, and when he heard Sun Daren's inquiry, he said without raising his head: "If you don't take it away, won't someone find out if you stay there?" My plate has been checked, the son of this old couple makes a living in Guzhou, and he will not return in a short time, and he has no other relatives and friends. I asked someone to clean up the bloodstains, and tomorrow if someone of their acquaintances asks about it, someone will say that the couple were taken by their son to Guzhou for a visit, and no one will be suspicious in a short time. ”

Di Xiu said calmly, but Sun Daren's face became strange, he stared at the other party and asked, "What do you mean? This is what you call handling?"

"They're all dead, and nothing you can do about them can change the fact that they're dead

。 Dixiu replied without raising his head.

Sun Daren glanced at the two corpses that had been torn by his white comrades and his abdomen was blurred with blood, and he inexplicably remembered the man who was hacked to death by a knife for himself to stop Cang Yuwei on that rainy night. They are also someone's father and mother, just like that person. His fists clenched, he gritted his teeth and said, "But after all, we have to let them settle in the ground, right?"

"Yes, but not now. As if sensing Sun Daren's dissatisfaction, Di Xiu stopped what he was doing and looked up at Sun Daren.

"Why?" Sun Daren asked in confusion.

"You should have heard what those drinkers said in the wine shop, right? Jin Buyun posted a notice, saying that the Bai family and the others were released because Lord Zhou Mu came forward as a guarantee. Now that the state shepherd's protector has caused trouble and killed ordinary people, what do you think the people in Ningxiao City will think if this matter spreads?" Facing Sun Daren's doubts, Di Xiu asked with a calm face.

Sun Daren was slightly stunned, looked at Di Xiu with a strange expression, and said, "You mean, Brother Bai became like this because Jin Buyun was deliberately dealing with Lord Zhoumu?"

"Maybe it's me who lives with myself, but if I sit in the position of Jin Buyun, whether this matter is instigated by me or not, I will definitely use this excuse to challenge the state pastor. Di Xiu said that this was intentional, and said: "Now that the dark tide in Ningzhou is surging, we have to be cautious, every wrong step may bring about a complete loss." ”

This made Sun Daren's heart sink, and he said to himself: "But the state pastor has been in Ningzhou for so many years, and the people of Ningzhou have all praised him. Even if all this is really a discordant plan of Jin Buyun, anyone who has some brains should be able to see the strangeness hidden in these things. Don't you just treat the governor as a wicked person?"

"Never overestimate the wisdom of the people. But Dexiu whispered: "No matter how smart a person is, he will shake his conviction under the crowd, not to mention that most people do not belong to the category of smart people." But the worst thing is that no one will have such a consciousness, and in order to prove this, they often grasp the things that are contrary to common sense, and then give their own imagination, edit and fill them into the facts, and rationalize the original unreasonable. ”

"Even the most ridiculous lies can be turned into facts by word of mouth. And if they still have some evidence to support their suspicions, then the matter is even more irreversible. As he spoke, Dexiu looked sideways at the two corpses on the ground, apparently aware of the same.

When Sun Daren heard this, he couldn't help but think of what happened in Wupan City, obviously before the flood, everyone thought that Mr. Wei was a rare good official in a hundred years, but after the flood, in just a few years, that good official became the evil leader who offended the people of the Dragon King. He suddenly understood a little, and he also knew how naΓ―ve he was thinking and thinking.

"The real devil is precisely this infinitely inflated public opinion. ”

"A group of people who think they are smart and good, with their self-righteousness to speculate about things as evil as possible, and then pour into them their imaginations. Let the unrelated appearances link them together to form a complete process of events that seem to them to be complete. ”

"In the end, they will forget all about the past, and they will not be willing to vent their infinitely expanding anger on what they believe to be the culprit. ”

Therefore, never overestimate their wisdom, and neither should he underestimate their strength. ”

Di Xiu's words were like a thunderbolt in the clear sky that crashed into Sun Daren's mind, and Sun Daren was like being empowered, and the whole person was stunned in place, and it took a while before he came back to his senses.

He no longer had the heart to argue, and he agreed with Dichu's logic in his heart. He nodded silently: "I understand, I'll go and call Ah Lai." ”

As he spoke, Sun Daren's footsteps were about to leave the firewood room.

Cough.

Cough.

But at this moment, a hoarse cough sounded, and Sun Daren was stunned and looked sideways, and the sound was actually made by two corpses lying on the ground that had been disemboweled.

"Aren't you dead?" Sun Daren thought with a strange expression, and walked in front of the two old men, lowered his head and was about to check.

The old man's eyes suddenly opened, scarlet blood light lit up from his eyes, his body jumped up, his limbs wrapped around Sun Daren in a strange way, and before Sun Daren could react, he opened his mouth and bit Sun Daren's neck!
