VIP chapter content,
Mo Jiuqing and his entourage kept hurrying, and finally arrived at Liujia Town at dawn. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Liujia Town is a big town, and generally speaking, the flow of people should be relatively large, but now Zisang and his entourage are standing at the entrance of Caizhen, and they can't see a single person at all, and the whole town seems to be shrouded in an ominous and gloomy feeling.
The three-character stele of Liujiazhen at the entrance of the town is not cleaned up in the weeds.
Mo Jiuqing turned over and dismounted, walked to the stone tablet of the three in Liujia Town, and after picking up a stick and getting rid of the weeds, he looked at the dark black dots on the stone tablet, and his eyes were dark.
"Blood stains. The crown also followed down when Mo Jiuqing dismounted, and when he saw the black stain on the stone tablet, he said without thinking.
Mo Jiuqing nodded, and said in a light tone: "Have you ever been to this Liujia Town before?"
Mian nodded and said: "I came once last year, this time is basically very lively, many people get up early, and the people in Liujia Town are more industrious, and every household is ready to go out to work very early in the morning, this situation is the first time I have seen it." ā
Mo Jiuqing listened to Mian's words, and said thoughtfully: "Pay attention when you go in for a while, it's a bit unusual here." Does this jurisdiction belong to which official governs?"
Mian thought for a while, and then said loudly: "Wang Ming." However, he belongs to the faction of the monarch and the Qianxiao, and now it is estimated that the new official has also received the dispatch order, and the subordinates do not know who it is for the time being. ā
Hearing what Mian said, Mo Jiuqing didn't think much about it, led the horse and signaled to Qingjue's eyes, and then slowly walked into Liujia Town.
After coming in, I found that the inside was even more strange than the outside.
Not a single villager was gone, the streets were empty and cold, and the cool breeze blew through the mouth of the alley, revealing a chill.
The shops on the street were all closed, and no matter which street Mo Jiuqing and his party went to, it was the same scene.
It's like a dead town.
"Look around separately, and if you don't see anyone alive, come back here and join us. Mo Jiuqing looked at Mian and his party and said in a deep voice.
Mian nodded, and the group chose a path to search around separately.
Mo Jiuqing walked slowly, and when the wind blew, a bamboo basket slowly rolled to his feet, Mo Jiuqing picked it up and saw that the brand new bamboo basket and shoulder straps were still very new, and there was no sign of wear.
Generally, new bamboo baskets are not thrown away, so why is such a bamboo basket thrown away on the street?
Originally, Mo Jiuqing was still looking at the bamboo basket, but he saw a figure flashing quickly upstairs on his left.
The speed of that figure was very fast, not at all like the speed of a normal person, and Mo Jiuqing almost didn't see it clearly.
Putting down the bamboo basket, Mo Jiuqing stepped on the stall next to him, jumped over, grabbed the railing on the second floor, and the whole person turned over to the second floor, and the speed was also very fast, and the handsome turn over had landed safely.
And Mo Jiuqing didn't stop, and after quickly pushing open the window and jumping in, there was no one around him.
I looked in the direction where the figure disappeared just now, but there was still no one to be seen.
Mo Jiuqing was also a little curious, where did the people of Liujia Town go, even if something happened, there should always be a few people in this town, but now there is no one, which is really a bit unreasonable.
It's weird.
If it is to slaughter the people in the whole town, this is also a bit unrealistic, Liujia Town is a big town, and the population is already tens of thousands, if you really kill these tens of thousands of people, then there should be a strong smell of blood.
But now in this Liujia Town, there is no smell of blood at all, and the houses are very good everywhere, and there is no trace of destruction due to fighting.
Mo Jiuqing was very cautious, his double knives were clenched in his hands, and he slowly inspected the house, and when he came inside, he found that this was an inn, and from the point of view of decoration, it looked like a brand new inn, and the tables and chairs were all brand new.
Since he couldn't find the figure just now, Mo Jiuqing planned to push it open door by door to see, such a big inn, there should always be one or two people.
When Mo Jiuqing almost looked at the room on the second floor, he still didn't find a person. And the figure that flashed just now seemed to really never exist.
Walking to the last room at the end of the second floor, Mo Jiuqing stretched out his hand and quickly pushed the door open, leaning sideways to look inside.
A cool breeze blew from the inside of the house to the door.
None of the rooms she had just looked at had a single window open, only the last one.
Mo Jiuqing walked in, looked at the neat bed and the tea set on the table on the side, and touched the teacup, the water was still warm......
Walking to the window, Mo Jiuqing looked out and found that there was a courtyard in this inn, and he couldn't see it when he opened the windows in the other rooms just now, only this room could be seen as soon as he opened the windows.
There was a big yellow dog sleeping under the courtyard, Mo Jiuqing casually took the hook hanging on the bed tent and threw it at the big yellow dog below, the iron hook fell to the ground and made a crisp sound, right next to the ears of the big yellow dog.
But the big yellow dog didn't even move his ears and went back to sleep.
Seeing this, Mo Jiuqing couldn't help but be a little surprised, and looked at the sleeping big yellow dog with half raised eyebrows, planning to go down to see an old disease.
But at the same time as this thought just arose, the double knives in Mo Jiuqing's hands changed direction without a trace, did not turn around or move, and still maintained the posture just now, as if he had not found anything.
Mo Jiuqing continued to look at the courtyard.
Just in the nick of time. Mo Jiuqing dodged sideways, and a pair of knives in his hand struck upward.
"Will!" the crisp sound of cold weapons colliding suddenly sounded in the room.
The person who attacked the sneak attack didn't expect that Mo Jiuqing would be so agile, and he would be able to escape his sneak attack in an instant, and he would be able to resist his attack.
Mo Jiuqing himself has a lot of strength, and he doesn't suffer a little to compete with such a man.
Taking advantage of the moment when the man was stunned, Mo Jiuqing raised his leg and kicked the man's stomach.
The man doesn't look like a person with strong martial arts, it seems that he only has some self-defense skills, if he is strong in martial arts, he can avoid Mo Jiuqing's kick.
The man took a few steps back, glared at Mo Jiuqing with a fierce look in his eyes, and said, "Who are you!? This town has become like this! What else do you want to do!"
As soon as Mo Jiuqing heard the man's words, he knew that this man was from this town, but he was afraid that something very serious had happened in this town.
"I was passing by and planning to come to Liujiazhen to rest, and I have no malice towards Liujiazhen. Mo Jiuqing looked at the man and said indifferently with a frank look in his eyes.
The man glanced at Mo Jiuqing deeply, and saw that Mo Jiuqing's eyes were frank and didn't look like lying, so he said: "You hurry up, this town can't accommodate any outsiders now, while it's not dusk yet, if you want to live, you can leave quickly." ā
When Mo Jiuqing heard the man's words, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you are a person from this town, do you want to see this town go on like this?"
As soon as the man heard Mo Jiuqing's words, he couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "You don't have to take my words, if you want to know what happened in this town, I can tell you, but if you know, you won't have a chance to leave." ā
Listening to the man say this, it really aroused Mo Jiuqing's interest, in her previous life, she understood that people in their line of work must not have too much curiosity, otherwise they will die too quickly.
But now it's different, anyway, this Liujia Town is still a town relatively close to the capital, if you let it go, if there is a big crisis in the future, it will be too late to save it.
"If I want to leave, no one can stop me. Let's talk about what happened in Liujiazhen, wasn't it okay a year ago?" Mo Jiuqing half raised his eyebrows, and his unruly appearance always had a somewhat convincing feeling.
The man glanced at Mo Jiuqing deeply, and then spoke: "I hope you don't regret knowing these things." ā
"A month ago, a group of aliens came to Liujia Town, originally they all lived in Mayor Liu's house, but after a few days, the people of Mayor Liu's family disappeared during the day, but at night when everyone wanted to rest and came out to activities, at first everyone didn't care, until Mayor Liu bit a person one day, and the people disappeared, and then two days later, the people also began to appear at night. At this time, everyone found out that it was not only the villager who was like this, but almost every household had such a situation one after another, and then everyone realized the seriousness of the problem, and then everyone made an appointment to find Mayor Liu, but no matter how they knocked on the door, the door of Mayor Liu's house was not opened, and everyone was in a hurry to break the door and go in, and then searched everywhere and did not find Mayor Liu's family, including those who disappeared The villagers are the same. The man sighed deeply and then began to speak slowly.
Later, everyone felt that the problem was a bit serious, so they sent a more flexible young man in the town to the capital to report the case, and then everyone did not dare to go out at night, but the next day, the young man's body appeared at the entrance of the town. The man recalled those things, and he still couldn't help but feel a little fear in his heart.
Mo Jiuqing listened to the man's words, and when he saw that the man didn't speak, he said loudly: "What happened later?"
The man still had palpitations in his heart when he thought of that night like purgatory.
"Later, for some reason, only the villagers who wandered outside were usually killed and disappeared, but after the young man died at the entrance of the village that day, it may be that we wanted to ventilate the news and angered the manipulators behind it, and at ten o'clock in the evening, all the villagers who disappeared appeared, I don't know where they came from, and everyone dared not investigate. Then the villagers were like crazy, and began to frantically smash the doors of each villager's house, and whoever they caught gathered to bite the villagers, and even ate the flesh and blood of innocent villagers. The man said, as if recalling the scene of that day, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
"The horrific massacres and persecution continued until dawn, when all the brutal villagers left and disappeared without a trace, and then the villagers who survived the catastrophe did not dare to stay here, and most of them planned to flee for their lives. But after a few people who came to the entrance of the village were also killed, the rest of the villagers did not dare to escape......"
