【071】Bloody Plague

When Xing Biao and the others ran to the edge of the hole, Xun Sheng had already lost his whereabouts, leaving only an empty hole.

Everyone looked at each other and was speechless for a while.

If something happens to Xun Sheng, it will really be a big deal in Qingyang City.

"Quick, you guys stay here, and by the way, take people around looking for adults, and I'll go back to the yamen to ask for help." Xing Biao reacted very quickly, and immediately ran out of the cargo ship with a loud shout.

After Xun Sheng's accident, he had to let the adjutants in the yamen come up with an idea, so as to stabilize the morale of the army.

Xing Biao ran back to the yamen as fast as he could, and immediately told Xun Sheng's accident to several adjutants, such as the canonical history, the inspection inspection, the gate officer, the tax envoy, the granary envoy, the city defense captain, and the military defense captain.

As soon as everyone heard this, they didn't even do any official business at hand, and immediately rushed to Gusu Wharf with a large number of people, trying to find Xun Sheng himself as soon as possible.

......

After Qin Feng returned to the mansion, he locked himself in the study, and no one was allowed to enter.

Duan Hongjin was very worried outside the door, but she couldn't push the door in, she knew Qin Feng's character, if someone dared to enter, it would definitely completely detonate Qin Feng's anger.

Thanks to the Qin family's cargo ship, the fact that the Qin Mansion was sabotaged by Wang Meng this morning was not noticed by Qin Feng and Duan Hongjin.

Qin Yuesheng, who learned from his subordinates that his father and mother had returned, immediately came to the outside of the study, and saw Duan Hongjin with a worried face at a glance.

"Erniang, what's going on on the dock. Qin Yuesheng stepped forward and asked.

Duan Hongjin smiled and said, "It's okay, if there is anything going on, you can go play quickly." ”

"Erniang. Qin Yuesheng looked serious: "I'm asking seriously, I want to know what's going on on the dock, if you don't want to say it, I'll ask the guards who went to the dock with you, I believe they will definitely tell me." ”

"You kid ......" Duan Hongjin sighed, so he had to take Qin Yuesheng to a position far away from the study, and said softly:

"Sir, he took over the business of buying materials from a merchant in the south last month, this time it is different from the past, and the amount of money that can be earned is very large, so the master took out four thousand taels of gold in one go to Chang'an to buy goods, and planned to sell it to the southern merchant. ”

"Four thousand taels of gold!" Qin Yuesheng took a breath.

Four thousand taels of gold is a full forty thousand taels of silver, which is also a lot of money for the Qin family.

"Didn't the cargo ship come back from Chang'an with that batch of goods in the morning, who would have thought that all the goods would be destroyed, and the money ...... It's gone. ”

Qin Yuesheng was speechless, he really couldn't comfort him about this.

When a person is experiencing troubles, any verbal comfort is nonsense, and only substantial help can make the other person feel healed.

"What happened to the ship, how could all the cargo be destroyed? Qin Yuesheng asked.

"I can't say anything about that, but there's something wrong with that ship. ”

"Something is wrong?" Qin Yuesheng wondered, looking at Duan Hongjin who didn't want to say any more, he had to comfort a few words and retire first.

Finding a nursing home who had followed Qin Feng to the dock in the morning, Qin Yuesheng learned the whole story.

It turned out that what Duan Hongjin didn't want to say was a human skin on the deck of the ship.

The entire crew of the ship died, and there was not a single one alive, and the fate was very uniform and very miserable.

Just the compensation and resettlement fees for these crew members, the Qin family had to spend a lot of money.

"Human skin, skinning...... Could it have something to do with sneakiness? Qin Yuesheng suddenly had such an idea in his mind.

The Qin family's affairs are his business, now that the Qin family has suffered such a big loss in one breath, and has made such an impact, as the young master of the Qin family plus a member of the Seven Star Prison, Qin Yuesheng immediately planned to go to the dock to have a look.

At present, Qin Yuesheng has two ways to deal with sneaky and demonic.

1. Evil Suppression Knife.

Second, the roar of the soul.

Of course, if the sneaky monsters encountered were not ghosts, but ghouls and the like, then Qin Yue would have more means at his disposal.

Whether it's beating someone or fighting a ghoul, who is not beating, it feels similar to beating it anyway.

When he returned to the room and got the evil knife, Qin Yuesheng called the horseman and asked him to set up a carriage and take him to the dock.

In broad daylight, Qin Yuesheng didn't want to use light skills to rush around the city, it was too eye-catching.

......

"Your Excellency!"

At this time, the cargo ship has become a mess, and there are people everywhere looking for the missing Lord Xun.

However, Xun Sheng, who was captured, seemed to have evaporated from the world, and no one could find it if he rummaged through every corner of the entire ship.

"Where do you say your lord will be arrested? This ship is docked at the dock, and there are all our people outside, it is impossible for anyone to leave here with your lordship, this ship is just such a shabby place, how can a good big living person say that it is gone?"

The two catchers searched the bottom of the cargo ship with knives, because the bottom was extremely humid because of the closest relationship to the water surface, many wooden planks were moldy and soft, and there was a strange smell in the air.

"Who knows, it's weird enough that this kind of thing happened on this ship, and you said that it was a human or a ghost who skinned those crew members one by one?"

Crunch!

Somewhere, there was a sudden movement of the planks.

The catcher who was walking in the front couldn't help but shudder, and couldn't help but turn around and shout: "Damn it, can you stop talking nonsense about these bad luck." ”

"Why don't you just ask, and you won't ......" Before the person's voice fell, it stopped abruptly.

I saw that his eyes were wide, and he looked like he had seen something incredible.

"Hey, who are you scaring with your eyes in your eyes?"

"That, that, look at ......"

Following the direction pointed by his companion, the catcher who was walking in front slowly turned around, and saw a bloody figure slowly crawling out of the plank, and every time it struggled, there would be an extra puddle of blood on the ground.

Smooth red tentacles grew out of the blood, shaking without wind.

"Run! What are you looking at!"

The first catcher reacted instantly, and quickly turned around and ran towards the boat ladder, while the second catcher saw the behavior of his companion and immediately reacted.

But as the two of them moved, the bloody shadow that crawled out of the plank also moved.

Woohoo!

One tentacle after another shot out, piercing the bodies of the two hunters who hadn't run far in the blink of an eye, and they were riddled with holes, and they were lifeless in an instant.

The Blood Shadow came to the side of a fast catcher corpse and directly burrowed into its body, only to see that this person began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally completely turned into a human skin.

And another corpse that catches quickly, under the coordination of many tentacles, a complete human skin was peeled off intact.

As dozens of tentacles coalesced into a giant arm, and with a single thrust of it towards the ship's plank, the skinless corpse was firmly glued to the wall.

Swish!

The blood shadow suddenly dissipated, and everything returned to its original appearance, except for two more human skins on the ground and one more skinless bloody corpse on the wall.

......

When Qin Yuesheng arrived at the wharf, he found that there were a lot of people from the yamen here, and the location where the Qin family's cargo ship docked was firmly controlled by the arrestees, and ordinary people couldn't get behind it at all.

"Did you find it, it seems that there are more and more people coming to catch it, just now there were only more than 30 people, and now there are almost 50 people. ”

"No, there were several big officials from the yamen just now, and all of them were on board. ”

Qin Yuesheng asked the groom to go back to the house first, squeezed into the crowd by himself, and found a catcher who was in charge of guarding the forbidden line.

"You, don't come here, it's forbidden for non-government personnel to approach here. Seeing that Qin Yuesheng had a posture of wanting to break through, he immediately shouted.

"Taishou-sama is here, I know him, you go and report it, and he will let me in." ”

Catching the fox looked at Qin Yuesheng suspiciously, this kid looked young, how could he meet Lord Taishou?

Qin Yuesheng figured out his thoughts, and said, "If you don't believe it, you might as well report it and try it, otherwise you won't be able to bear this responsibility if you delay the matter." ”

Thinking about Qin Yuesheng's words, it was not unreasonable, so he said: "You stay here, don't cross the forbidden line, I'll come when I go." ”

Qin Yuesheng said: "Don't forget to tell Lord Taishou, my name is Qin Yuesheng." ”

......

"What are you going to do one by one? A person as big as Lord Taishou, under your noses, you can throw it away, rubbish, rubbish, rubbish. ”

The captain of the city defense stood on the deck and shouted angrily.

And standing in front of him was Xing Biao's group of fast catchers.

is the so-called official level crushing people, in front of the city defense captain, even Xing Biao, who is the head catcher, can only swallow his anger and bow his head and be scolded, but in his heart, he has already retorted a thousand words.

The city defense captain is named Xiang Quan, a man with five big and three rough, with a black face and a fierce look, and when he scolds people, it is really like a thunder gong, and he can hear the buzzing of other people's brains.

Xu Jin, who was standing next to him, couldn't listen to it anymore, so he had to come out and play a round.

"Okay, okay, stop scolding, the most important thing now is to find the adult. Xu Jin asked Xing Biao: "Tell me what the situation was at that time and how the adults were arrested." ”

Xing Biao raised his head and smiled bitterly: "Master Dianshi, I really didn't see it, it was just a blink of an eye at that time, and the adult was directly gone, and no one saw what was going on." ”

Xiang Quan touched his beard helplessly: "This matter is quite weird, it seems that I have to ask Lord Bai to take a look." ”

Xu Jin: "Lord Bai has been out for two days, and now I don't even know where people are, where are you going." ”

"Then you can't just do it, if it doesn't work, I'll go to Xiqishan Pass to find those Taoist priests, or go to Hanshan Temple to find those monks, there will always be someone who can ......"

"A few adults, there is a young man outside who wants to see Lord Taishou, saying that he is acquainted with Lord Taishou. Suddenly, a catcher ran up quickly from under the wooden ladder, and directly interrupted Xiang Quan's words.

This guy was already in an irritable state, and when he heard that someone was looking for Xun Sheng and boasting about his acquaintance, he immediately became angry: "Where is the charlatan, hurry up and let him go." ”

Caught up for a moment, so he had to respond: "Yes, my subordinates will go here, but my lord, he said that his name is Qin Yuesheng." ”

"Huh?!"

Xu Jin's eyes lit up instantly, and he hurriedly shouted: "Quick! Go and invite this adult over." ”
