Chapter 10 Traces

Seeing Sima Yunxuan coming back from outside, Mu Chen asked, "How is it, have you found anything?" ”

Sima Yunxuan shook his head, indicating that he hadn't found anything, "Alas, all the guests were scared awake, but everyone is fine, it seems that our fox demon sister is not here with us."

Mu Chen nodded and said, "You go to sleep first, let's go to the street tomorrow to have a look, it seems that we need to stay a few more days"

Sima Yunxuan nodded, and went to sleep, while Mu Chen sat alone at the table, drinking and thinking about things. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Why does this master have to harm men? And what exactly did she do to the victims? Why did she use the fox demon as a guise and not kill people directly? What is her purpose? And I have been committing crimes before, why did I do it every few days later? These questions lingered in Mu Chen's mind, and Mu Chen guessed about these problems all night, and didn't take a nap until the next day.

The next day, the two began to inquire about which family had the accident. It must be said that Yongzhou City is prosperous during the day, with a dazzling array of goods, not worse than Wuyi City at all, and the fence in the middle of the road is just a look, and the people of the two countries live in harmony here, after all, they are all Central Plains people, and their hearts are still united and harmonious.

The two of them first found out when they were eating at the inn that someone had indeed had an accident last night, the deceased was a man, and the body had been sent to the Yamen, because it was from the Southern Dynasty, and it was sent to the Yamen of the Southern Dynasty. Mu Chen laughed in his heart after hearing this, "Hehe, I didn't expect this to be very clear"

The two went straight to the Yamen, although they heard a lot of people talking about it on the way, but it was all gossip, and the two didn't care.

When the two arrived at the Yamen, the body was placed in the morgue of the Yamen, and someone was seen crying on the ground in the public court, which should be the family of the deceased. Sima Yunxuan went to inquire about this person's life experience, while Mu Chen looked at everyone present, because the possibility of the murderer being present could not be ruled out.

After a while, Sima Yunxuan came back and said to Mu Chen, "I asked, the deceased last night is called Guo Zhiyun, he is a practitioner, he is a good person, he has good martial arts, and it is said that he helped a beggar gang on the street a few days ago." ”

Mu Chen pondered for a while and said, "Could it be that this fox demon picks good people to attack?" I've heard that most of the people who died in the first few were good people who fought violence and were peaceful. ”

"Possibly, anyway, let's go to the morgue and have a look," Sima Yunxuan proposed.

Mu Chen nodded, and both of them walked in the direction of the morgue. Because the morgue was guarded, the two secretly made a detour to the back and knocked the guards unconscious before entering the room.

As soon as I entered the room, I smelled a foul smell. Both almost threw up. Forcibly walked to a corpse, and was about to lift the white cloth on the corpse, when he heard someone outside the door about to come in, and the two hurriedly hid on a beam of a room.

At this time, three people came in from outside the door, all of them were middle-aged, judging from their clothes, these three people were not from the government, but they looked like people from the beggar gang. When Sima Yunxuan saw these three people, he whispered to Mu Chen, "Why did the beggar gang intervene and come in?" ”

Mu Chen made a gesture for him not to speak, and to watch carefully.

The next three men walked up to a corpse, and one of them lifted the white cloth to reveal the corpse's face. Mu Chen was startled when he saw this face, this face was very white, without a little blood, and the skin had some dry folds, which made people think that they had been sucked away by a monster.

One of the three men spoke, "Elder Yue, this is yesterday's deceased, please see what you can find." ”

That Elder Yue looked at the corpse and said for a moment, "This corpse is ostensibly causing people to suck their essence dry, but in fact, it should be caused by forcibly sucking away the internal force by a method."

"Forcibly sucking out the internal force?" The middle-aged man who had never spoken said said, "Could it be the Northern Spiritual Skill of the Loose Sect?" ”

Elder Yue thought for a moment, "It's possible, but it shouldn't be, if it's the Northern Spiritual Skill, there will be such a tragic death."

Mu Chen, who had been listening to the beam of the house, immediately became interested as soon as he heard the Northern Spiritual Skill, he had heard of this martial art, and the user could use the Northern Spiritual Skill to suck the opponent's internal force into his body, Mu Chen thought, if he learned this martial art, maybe it would be more convenient to practice sporadic divine skills.

Elder Yue said again: "As far as I know, there seems to be no one in the world today who knows how to do it, this is all the master of the predecessors a hundred years ago, and now it has long been lost." ”

"Well, what kind of kung fu can that be?" The other two pondered.

Elder Yue said, "Now is not the time to think about this, we have to think about how to deal with this demon girl first. ”

"I have a way" Suddenly, a person jumped down from the beam, it was Mu Chen, Sima Yunxuan was startled, he didn't expect Mu Chen to jump down, so he had to follow.

Startled by the sudden arrival of two people, the two middle-aged men made battle gestures, but Elder Yue stopped them. "These two little brothers came a long time ago, and we arrived later, so don't be rude."

Mu Chen was shocked, he didn't expect this Elder Yue to be so powerful, he could actually feel that the two of them were hiding in the beams of the house, but after thinking about it again, the two guards who had fainted were still lying at the door, and it was not strange to guess.

Elder Yue respectfully saluted Mu Chen, and said, "Little brother, I am Yue Zhenghong, the elder of the Beggar Gang, and this is the two helmsmen of my Beggar Gang, Zhou Junyi, Zhou Helmsman and Wei Yan Helmsman."

Mu Chen also said respectfully, "The three seniors are polite, my name is Mu Chen, and this is Sima Yunxuan."

Sima Yunxuan also saluted the three of them one by one, Yue Zhenghong looked at Sima Yunxuan and said, "Little brother Sima, where are you from?" Where did it come from? ”

Sima Yunxuan said with a smile: "I am from the Central Plains and Northern Dynasties. My brother Muchen is from the Southern Dynasty, and we came from the Southern Dynasty."

Mu Chen laughed secretly in his heart, he didn't expect that he would be called a brother by Sima Yunxuan, and he was also a wretch.

Yue Zhenghong smiled and said, "The people of the Northern Dynasty, Sima of the Northern Dynasty is a big surname, it is said that many royal relatives and nobles are surnamed Sima."

"Hehe, speaking of which, my family is at most a declining nobleman, and the advantage is that Xiaoqian has some background in the imperial court, that's all," Sima Yunxuan explained.

Yue Zhenghong smiled, immediately shifted the topic to Mu Chen, and said, "Brother Mu, you just said that you have a way to catch the demon girl?" ”

Mu Chen smiled confidently, "That's right, I can probably guess the reason for everything now, but I just need an empirical proof." ”

Hearing this, the three of the beggars smiled and said, "That's great, this hero has helped our beggar gang, we just wanted to repay him, but we didn't expect to find such a strange thing in Yongzhou City, our beggar gang must not sit idly by and ignore this matter." ”

Mu Chen said with a smile, "I heard that the beggar gang is full of heroes, but today I saw it really extraordinary, speaking of which, I really need the help of the beggars in this plan."

"Little brother smiled, we are heroes, as long as we can catch the demon girl, my beggar gang will definitely do our part" Wei Yan smiled.

Mu Chen also smiled and said, "By the way, I would like to ask the elders and helmsmen, can the beggar gang find all the martial arts books that have come out on the rivers and lakes?" ”

"This, I don't know what martial arts the little brother wants to investigate?" Zhou Junyi asked.

Mu Chen smiled, "Hehe, I don't know the name of the martial arts I want to check, I'm just a grass bag in the rivers and lakes, I want to learn about the martial arts in the rivers and lakes through books or other methods, and it will be more convenient to walk the rivers and lakes in the future." ”

After hearing this, Yue Zhenghong laughed and said, "Hahaha, the keen heart of the little brother is really admired by the old man, but my beggar gang really doesn't have such books."

"The seniors have an overreputation, so I have to go and ask around," Mu Chen smiled

This is Wei Yan said suddenly, "Little brother, I don't have this kind of book you are looking for, but there is an old urchin in this Yongzhou City, known as the old man of the turtle, who uses the back of the turtle to tell fortunes, I heard that he has been running around the rivers and lakes all his life, and has recorded all the martial arts he has seen in a book of the turtle, although he is very stingy, and he is not even willing to let others read it, let alone borrow it from someone he doesn't know."

Mu Chen thought about it for a while, and said with a smile, "Haha, just have it, I have my own way to get it, seniors, three days later, at the Xiyang Inn, we will discuss the plan together" Mu Chen walked towards the door after speaking.

"Hey," Sima Yunxuan shouted, "Where are you going?" ”

"Genkamekan"
