Chapter 25: It seems that they are going to do something unseemly with corpses

After entering the wing room prepared for him by Uncle Jiu, Zhou Heng first bolted the door and lit the candles, and then carefully looked at the furnishings of this room.

The furniture in the house is ordinary and ordinary, it is all wooden furniture of ordinary people in this era, and these furniture are placed neatly, neatly, and the mattress and pillows are all available, which looks very neat and clean.

But after Zhou Heng carefully inspected, he still saw that there was a little dust on these pieces of furniture that had been left for a long time, obviously this room was specially used by Uncle Nine to greet guests, and no one lived in it for a while.

Although the battle with those horse thieves seemed to be fierce just now, Zhou Heng was not too tired, after all, although those horse thieves were a little weird in front of ordinary people, compared to him, these horse thieves were still not enough.

But. Although he was not tired, Zhou Heng had no intention of going out again, when he started with these horse thieves just now, he still used a lot of energy, so he went to bed and fell asleep, and began to recover his mental consumption.

............

"Knock Knock Knock ---"

I don't know how long it took, Zhou Heng was surprised by the sudden knock on the door.

When he opened his eyes, Zhou Heng found that it was already dawn, stepped off the bed, opened the door, and found Ah Qiang standing in front of the door with a basin of water and towels with a tense face.

"Na, sleep like that, die for you, take it!" Ah Qiang grumbled a few words, saw Zhou Heng open the door, and stuffed the water and things in his hand into him.

"Thank you!" Zhou Heng took his hand and said.

"Cut, no need, this is what the master asked me to bring to you, but I didn't want to come!" Ah Qiang waved his hand and looked at Zhou Hengdao, turned around and wanted to leave. Suddenly stopped again and said, "By the way, my master told you to go to the front hall for breakfast after washing up." You have to hurry up, if it's slow, don't blame me for being fast, or you won't blame me for being hungry. ”

After speaking, Ah Qiang walked away without looking back.

Looking at Ah Qiang, who lost his temper like a child and left, Zhou Heng shook his head, if he didn't have a good master, Zhou Heng really wanted to slap him a few times and let him know that he knew the sinister nature of society.

Zhou Heng couldn't help but chuckle a few times when this thought suddenly came to him, and then brought the things into the house, looking at the wooden basin with clear water on the table, a white towel, a wicker, and a small box of fine salt, Zhou Heng couldn't help but pat his forehead, and secretly confused.

He already has a necessary artifact for home travel, such as saving space, why did he forget to put some daily necessities, food and belongings in it, just like he just came yesterday, his whole body was not prepared at all, if it wasn't for the money and clothes he had before, now he was afraid that he would be living on the streets.

Reminding himself of what he had to do, Zhou Heng washed up hastily, walked out of the door, and walked out towards the living room in front of him.

"Uncle Nine, morning!" As soon as he arrived in the living room, Zhou Heng saw that Uncle Nine was sitting on the main seat of the table, with a few side dishes and a pot of steaming porridge in front of him, but Uncle Nine didn't eat them, obviously waiting for Zhou Heng to eat together.

"Morning, how did Little Brother Zhou rest last night?" Uncle Nine replied with a smile.

"Of course, we're busy, he's gone to bed early and he's sleeping soundly, and I've been knocking on the door for a while. Before Zhou Heng could answer, Ah Qiang next to him muttered first.

"Huh?" Hearing Ah Qiang's muttering, Uncle Nine raised his eyebrows and glared at Ah Qiang with a non-chalant expression.

"Ah, no, no, it's master, your house is so comfortable, how can you not sleep well?" Seeing that Uncle Nine was displeased, Ah Qiang hurriedly smiled cheaply.

Although I don't know why Ah Qiang is a little hostile to himself, but for the sake of Uncle Nine, as long as it is harmless, Zhou Heng didn't take it to heart, and said with a slight smile: "It's okay, I rested well last night, thank you Uncle Nine for your concern!"

"It's good to rest, come, sit down and have breakfast together!" Uncle Nine smiled slightly and pointed to the seat next to him.

"Hmm!" Zhou Heng nodded and was not polite, sat down and took a bowl of porridge and began to eat.

Uncle Nine seems to be quite particular about eating, and seems to have the rule of "eating without words", and even Ah Qiang has not said a word after a meal.

After breakfast, Uncle Nine asked Ah Qiang to clean up his things, and he took Zhou Heng to the side to make two cups of tea and chatted for a few words, and then suddenly said: "Little Brother Zhou, there is something I think I still have to tell you." ”

"What's the matter, Uncle Nine doesn't have to be polite, please speak!" Zhou Heng was also a little curious about Uncle Nine's sudden serious opening, and he didn't know what he wanted to say.

"Last night, we thought we had eliminated the horse thieves, but we were wrong. As we were leaving, I ordered the horse thieves to be buried, but by this morning the men we had left behind had not returned, so I had them look at them, but they had been killed, and the bodies of the horse thieves were gone. Uncle Nine said with a serious face.

Hearing Uncle Jiu's words, Zhou Heng frowned, looked at Uncle Jiu and said with some hesitation: "Then Uncle Jiu, what do you mean......"

"I think after we left, someone must have come and snatched the corpse of the horse thieves, or some horse thief cheated to death, and when we left, they killed the villagers of our village and took the corpses with them. Uncle Nine analyzed in a deep voice.

"Take away the corpse?" Zhou Henghu said suspiciously, "Everyone is dead, what's the use of him taking away the corpse?"

"These horse thieves are not ordinary people, I am afraid that they will use evil magic to refine corpses or fierce ghosts, and attack this village again. Uncle Nine said worriedly.

Because he was worried that the horse thieves would attack again, even if it was Uncle Jiu's birthday today, Uncle Jiu's brows still did not stretch out, and Zhou Heng also had some bad premonitions in his heart, after all, the current plot has begun to be a little different from the plot of the movie, and I don't know what kind of tricks those horse thieves will play.

In this way, on this day, Zhou Heng did not go out for a stroll, but followed Uncle Jiu to help him prepare some strange things for the next possible battle.

The day was about to pass quickly, and in the evening, Cuong came to the house and told Uncle Nine that some respected people in the village had booked a birthday banquet for him in the restaurant to help him celebrate his birthday, and now it was all ready.

"Okay, little brother Zhou, we can't get ready, it's not too early, let's go to the restaurant together to have a glass of water and bar!" Uncle Nine put down the cinnabar pen in his hand, put away the drawn talisman, and said to Zhou Heng, who was busy fiddling with the Five Emperors Bronze Coin Sword.

"Okay, Uncle Jiu, then let's go quickly, today is your birthday, let's not be late!" Zhou Heng put away the copper coin sword that was going to be used to deal with ghosts, stood up and said.

"It's okay, don't worry, it's still too late, let's go quickly." Uncle Nine smiled slightly, nodded at Zhou Heng, and the two of them headed towards the banquet inn of the birthday banquet under the leadership of Ah Qiang.
