Miluo smiled, "I've studied the habits of plague demons. This plague demon also has a great hobby: he likes to torture and kill women, especially beautiful women. In the Middle Ages, the women it killed had tragic deaths, and it had to arrest people every few days for fun. Now it has only escaped from the dungeon for a short time, and it doesn't know how many years it has been imprisoned there, and its heart is full of anger, even if it stings in this city, it must not help but want to vent this desire from the bottom of its heart. ”

Both are demons, and he and Changtian both know too well the nature of the demon spirits. The demons may be inherently strong, but they are more likely to succumb to savage instincts, desires, and needs, and even the ancient trolls are prone to being hot-headed and doing many terrible things.

Torture and killing? Ning Xiaoxian clenched his fists tightly.

"So, I re-counted the city and found that there were thirty-six people who had traveled back and forth inside and outside the city within a month, and after they entered and exited, there were murders outside the city!"

She frowned, "Outside the city?"

"Not bad. Although the plague demon was murderous, it was not carried away. It knew that the security in Chiming City was very good, even if there was one less mortal, it would be tracked down, and there were too many immortal cultivators in the city, and if it was not careful, it would show its feet, so if you want to experience the fun of killing, it is best to go outside the city. Don't forget, it not only wants to kill, but also focuses on experiencing the joy of torture, and it must be calm and unaffected. ”

The corners of his mouth slowly hooked up a sneer: "Since there are only thirty-six people left, it will be much easier to investigate." After only three days of investigation, one person's name was brought up - Situ Qing, a monk in the Yuan Infant Period. Three months ago, he bought a mansion in the east of the city, south to north. There are many big trees in the house, covering the sky and the sun. The relationship in this house is very simple, except for him. There were only four maidservants, three long-term workers, a gardener, a cook, a cook, and ...... This month, the new ones came in. Interestingly, Situ Qing originally raised a woman in this house. His appearance was very beautiful, but he suddenly died more than 20 days ago, and he accepted Huo Mingzhu as a new recruit. ”

The so-called "fine ding". It refers to a woman found by a monk or a monster from among mortals, one is not married to the media, and the other is not a concubine to serve. To put it simply, there is only the reality of husband and wife between the immortal cultivator and the fine ding, but there is no name of husband and wife. Xi Ding did not have the power to command in the immortal cultivator's house. But relying on this relationship, the woman's family can get money or shelter, which can be regarded as taking what they need. Mortals on this continent have cheap lives, and the people have always been quite tolerant of this relationship.

"Although it has been brought in for more than 20 days, there has not been a husband and wife between the two, because Huo Mingzhu happened to come to Kwai Shui, and he was infected with wind and cold in the next few days, and his health has been poor. Situ Qing's cultivation is special. When a woman is not in good health, she should not have sex with her, so as not to hurt her own cultivation. But he's pretty good about this new tiny. Food and clothing are readily available. And in the past two days, he has been busy with affairs in his hands, and he has really stayed in the courtyard for less than three days. ”

"Xiaomei, the maid who served Huo Mingzhu, complained to others one day when she was buying cold pulp in the market, her master was cold and indifferent to people, she didn't like to talk, and she was willing to stay in the house alone and not go out, and occasionally go back to her mother's house, and Xiaomei was not allowed to follow. ”

She was stunned and smiled bitterly, she didn't expect Miluo to even be able to inquire clearly about what other people's maidservants said when they were shopping, this demon was really terrible.

"I have checked, Huo Mingzhu is indeed a native of Chiming City, but his mother's family is in Zhuangzi on the western outskirts of the city, and it is rare to enter the city for two or three years. After being carried into Situ's house, she had already gone back to her parents' house twice. During this period, there was a case of disappearance when she returned to her parents' home, the missing person was said to be a beautiful girl, living on the outskirts of Nancheng, and never returned home after going down to the ground to deliver food to her father that day. Judging from this, she should have encountered an accident, and after the plague demon was tortured and killed, she would not leave a corpse for anyone with a heart to investigate. ”

"From above, Huo Mingzhu is the most suspicious of all the people who enter the city, so I will send a woman into Situ's house for further investigation. These were the last words that Miluo had said in the evening for his own series of inferences.

But she didn't expect that he chose Ruji to do this. Maybe he originally assigned someone else, but after Ru Ji's assassination of her was discovered today, he pushed Ru Ji into Situ Qing's arms in line with the principle of waste utilization.

Ning Xiaoxian was not stupid, and immediately thought that Ruji was bait, not only to catch Situ Qing's perverted ghost, but also to catch the bait of the plague demon's murderous desire, after all, the butterfly demon looked more beautiful than most of the women that the plague demon had tortured and killed before.

If Ji enters the Situ family, she is already very lucky. Thinking of this, Ning Xiaoxian's heart felt blocked, and it wasn't until a few deep breaths forced him to settle down that he slowly left it behind.

After a long time, she remembered something: "Changtian, what is 'gold in gravel'?"

She could clearly feel him pause before answering: "I don't know, I've been dead for too long, but I'm not a jack of all trades." ”

"I really don't know?"

"I don't know. "She still doesn't know.

She snorted suspiciously, and went to absorb the moonlight.

While she wasn't paying attention, Changtian sighed softly. She turned out to be the physique of the gold in the gravel, no wonder Miluo and Quan Shifang would be attracted to her.

He knew from Chen Ding's memory that the so-called "gold in the gravel" was actually a euphemism for a woman's inner flattering physique, which meant that gold was hidden in the gravel. Many of the great rivers have gold veins hidden in their beds, and gold diggers have to wash the sand and gravel repeatedly to reveal the gold inside. Similarly, women with this kind of physique do not write all the coquettishness on their faces, but most of them are smart and delicate, not known for their flamboyance, but their facial features are exquisite, and the proportion is excellent, and the longer they look at it, the more they feel good-looking. Above all, the woman who is charming is more wonderful in the affairs of the house, and it is of great benefit to the man. Not to mention the other, just this last one, this woman's encounter in this troubled world is very pitiful.

After she entered the Divine Demon Prison today, Changtian looked at her repeatedly, and then breathed a sigh of relief. This girl's facial features are still a long distance away from Ye Yan, and her inner charm is very hidden, at best, it is only easy for men to have a little affection for her, and even a person like him who has a Chen Ding's memory of Zhongshu can only see a little clue after Situ's reminder, and it is expected that she will not be a life like Hongyan and Woe Shui. But even so, he felt very uneasy. He has guarded her for so long, watching her transform from a young girl into a budding orchid little by little, he has the sinister intention of picking it with his own hands, but he doesn't want her fragrance to waft out to attract bees and butterflies.

But according to her nosy nature, she was asked to throw away the plague demon in Chiming City and go on her own road, but she categorically refused.

How did Ning Xiaoxian know that he was planning in his belly, and after the moon set in the west, she returned to the room and slept on her stomach beautifully. Even if she can breathe and settle down, she still likes to sleep with the quilt in her arms, which makes her feel like she is still a person. Now, of course, her sleep time has been greatly reduced, and she only has one hour a day at most.

The storm in Chiming City was coming, so she didn't wander around, so she finished her homework in the Gods and Demons Prison, and sent the guys in the store to buy her a lot of local specialties and snacks, and then rolled back to the Gods and Demons Prison, holding Ah Li to watch Changtian and Tu Duan play chess. It is said that watching chess is silent and true gentlemen, but when two women, one big and one small, did not forget to chirp and croak, comment, but they didn't know anything about chess, which really made the two people holding chess pieces feel that there were a thousand crows in their ears and had to drive them out.

The day passed peacefully.

On the second day, she found something for herself to do: she ran to the bank of the Ming River and sent Qizai down to the river to catch the shuttle crab, saying that she wanted to raise it in the spiritual spring in the small garden. The ordinary big fish that were originally raised here have been eaten by her into boiled fish fillets, and now there are a few big mussels, a few big snails, and a few Arowana that are said to be fresh and sweet, and then this shuttle crab.

Then, she also went to a ready-to-wear store, bought seven or eight girls' clothes, pants, shoes and socks, and bought a lot of toys for Ah Li, and then returned to the inn with satisfaction and happily helped the little girl dress up. She didn't know that when Miluo's subordinates reported her whereabouts to her master, even Miluo was puzzled: what did she do to buy the girl's clothes?

When there is nothing to do, the days always pass slowly. In the middle, she also received a message from the fat man of Wuda City. Since this fat man got her reminder, he knew that the plague was about to break out, and he actually set up another business specializing in funeral business, from coffins of various materials and models to shrouds, paper shoes, filial piety clothes, wreaths, elegiac couplets, candlesticks, and white towels, all of which were exported to nearby cities.

After the outbreak of the plague, he made a fortune from the dead, but no one would say anything, because Qi Fatzi donated a lot of silver to fund the city lord's mansion to help people deal with the affairs of the epidemic, and for a while, the name of Qi Da and the good man was gone. The Wucheng Lord of Wudao City is an old acquaintance of Ning Xiaoxian, and he announced that the Qi family's businesses will be exempted from taxes for the next few years.

After the outbreak of the epidemic, the prices of the shops that Qi Fatzi originally liked plummeted. One of them came to the door at the same time as the outbreak of the epidemic, and dragged it to 2580,000 yuan, as if it wanted to reduce the price by about 20%, so that Qi Fatzi quickly took the money to buy it. Qi San'er was not a good stubble in the first place, so Ji made a mess of this family and threw it out of the door.

After another ten days and a half months, all industries in this state were depressed, and people everywhere were panicked, and they were all affected by the plague and had no intention of buying and selling. It is not easy for people to live a lifetime, whether it is the world or the earth, in addition to war, the most feared thing for human beings is infectious diseases. Even if there are only two or three cases in one place, the whole city can be like a great enemy, listening to the wind and rain, not to mention that this epidemic is really menacing, killing thousands of people everywhere it goes......?
