I heard one of the men in the blue robe say, "Did you hear that? Long live the Lord has already issued an edict against himself, and said that he would choose a good day and an auspicious day to go to the temple to worship the heavens! ”

The middle-aged man in white across from him said, "If such a big disaster happens, long live the Lord and sacrifice to the sky?" ”

The blue-clothed man said: "Can you do it without sacrificing to the sky!" It is said that this explosion was God's warning to today's son, warning him to ignore the government and allow the traitorous party to cause trouble and chaos in the government. ”

When the man in white heard him say this, he hurriedly said: "Brother Wang, you are crazy, you dare to say such a rebellious thing in broad daylight, if you let Jinyiwei or someone from Dongchang hear it, it will be a loss of your head." ”

The man in blue smiled and said: "Look at your unpromising appearance, now the whole city is saying this, and I am not one of them, and now those Jinyi Guards and the people in Dongchang are all busy, how can they have time to take care of such a trivial matter as us." ”

The man in white said: "Although this is the case, it is better to be careful, do you know that discussing the government for no reason is a big crime to exterminate the nine clans!" ”

Hearing what the man in white said, the man in blue looked left and right, saw that no one was paying attention to them, and then said: "Actually, I also heard that this time it is not only a warning from God today, but also a demon, I heard that there were several demons at the scene of the explosion that day, these people were dark green all over their bodies, coming and going like flying, specializing in eating human offal, and many people who were not killed by the explosion at that time were bitten to death by them." ”

The man in white said: "I have also heard about what you said, it is said that they also arrested a woodcutter at that time, and asked who is here today, I estimate that they are eighty percent of them came for Banzai today." ”

At this time, someone next to him interjected: "I have also heard what you said, it is said that the emperor list has been posted now, and a reward of 1,000 taels of gold has been offered to catch these demons!" ”

The man in white said: "A thousand taels of gold? I think it's 10,000 taels of gold, and I guess no one dares to take this errand, I heard that last night in those ruins of Xicheng, there were a few people who were injured and lucky enough not to die, and all the internal organs were hollowed out overnight, and there were traces of being bitten on the neck. ”

The man next to him said: "Really? ”

The man in white said: "It's not far from the city gate in Xicheng, if you don't believe it, you can go and have a look, but it is estimated that this official is already over there, so it's best not to go if you're afraid of getting into trouble." ”

Hearing Bai Yi say this, the people next to him all scoffed, thinking that he was bragging, so everyone chatted separately, but Ye Qiushui and Ma Ke were different, because they were the demons these people talked about.

After leaving the teahouse, Marco said to Ye Qiushui, "Shall we go over and have a look?" ”

Ye Qiushui said: "You mean Xicheng? ”

Marco said: "Yes, I always feel that this matter is not that simple. ”

Ye Qiushui said: "Forget it, it's better to cause less trouble, it's not early, let's go back to the inn first, and study it with Squad Leader Luo and them in the evening." ”

Soon after dark, Luo Tianwu and the others returned to the inn one after another, and everyone had a simple meal in Ye Qiushui's room, and began to talk about today's respective harvests, Luo Tianwu first spoke: "The direction I am mainly going in today is Nancheng, which is relatively close to the explosion point, most of the houses are relatively damaged, and only a few can still live in them, I rummaged through them one by one, and in an abandoned house, I found this." ”

As he spoke, he put a bag of vacuum food in front of several people, and then continued: "Then I found some things in several houses nearby, these people are very cunning, and they don't stay in each place for a long time, so it is difficult to judge their specific location now. ”

At this time, Wu Ran also spoke: "I also found some things they used in Xicheng, and I analyzed that they should be the same as us, they are all acting separately and not together. ”

"But I heard a news in the west of the city, it may be related to us, today during the day in the west of the city are spreading, saying that this explosion is not a curse, but a demon to blame, the demon in their mouth seems to be talking about us, and the west of the city seems to have died a few people last night, the death is very special, they were all bitten by people with teeth on the neck, and then hollowed out the internal organs and died, so the dead people, the internal organs are all gone, and now the whole Xicheng is panicked."

"Jinyiwei seems to have also been dispatched, looking for the murderer and sources, it is said that the emperor list has been posted, and a reward is being offered for the arrest of the demon."

Ye Qiushui said: "The news that Marco and I found out is similar to that, and we have also heard about the demons." ”

At this time, Luo Tianwu said to Zhou Tiezhu: "Tiezhu, how is the situation over there?" ”

Zhou Tiezhu scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "I just separated from Wu Ran today, and I was arrested by Jinyi Wei to carry the corpse to the west of the city, I have seen the corpses you said, they were indeed bitten to death, but the internal organs are not all lost, but the heart is missing." ”

"But the strange thing is that these hearts do not seem to have been taken away, but were eaten by something on the spot, because when I was carrying the corpses, some fragments of hearts were found at the scene, and the Jinyi guards who took the lead at that time asked us to count the corpses, a total of twelve, and they asked us to carry these corpses to a yamen, and each of them gave us a piece of broken silver, and sent us out."

Ye Qiushui said: "That's all? Is there any other news? ”

Zhou Tiezhu said: "By the way, I heard the Jinyi guard who took the lead say that they didn't seem to go to Xicheng to investigate these corpses, but to find a master who is said to be able to subdue the demons, saying that this master knows eight hundred before and one thousand later, and is a person with advanced spells, but after that, the master didn't find it, but he encountered this incident, so he had to think that he was unlucky and took over this thankless errand." ”

Ye Qiushui said: "Don't worry about him, it seems that this is another charlatan who wants to take advantage of the chaos." ”

Luo Tianwu said: "Did you gain anything this afternoon?" ”

Ye Qiushui said: "It's similar to you, we also heard in Dongcheng today that the demon caused this explosion, and it is estimated that the official will soon be under pressure to hunt us down in the whole city, so it is better for us to prepare early." ”

Luo Tianwu said: "This is not in a hurry, after all, there are not many people who have seen us, but you are sure to sneak into the palace tomorrow?" ”

Ye Qiushui said: "This should be no problem, as far as I observe today, all the people who enter King Kang's Mansion, regardless of the old, weak, sick or disabled, have not come out." ”

Luo Tianwu said: "Then when you go tomorrow, be careful, the company commander only brought a gun when he went, if possible, you will bring some plastic explosives tomorrow, and two grenades in case you need it." ”

Ye Qiushui said: "Don't worry, I'm ready for these things, but you, when you look for Zhu Changming and them in the city tomorrow, it's best to put on makeup, at least get some wigs and belts, don't cause unnecessary trouble because of these little things." ”
