"Damn, what's going on? Isn't this the slave from last night? How could there be a person lying here? And his face, why is it gone?" Liu Youcheng pointed to the corpse lying on the ground. You say with a shocked look on your face.

"Could it be that it wasn't this person we saw last night? What the hell is going on? How is this possible?" Li Bei squatted down and looked at the corpse with a solemn face.

I saw this corpse, lying naked on the ground, without a face. There was a face next to it, but now it was blue-black.

The original position of the face has now become a blur of flesh and blood. Black blood seeped out, and it looked terrifying.

Li Beixiang picked up the dough, put it under his nose and sniffed it.

"What does this smell like, why is it so weird?" Li Beixiang smelled this dough, and the smell of long-rotten skin rushed straight to his nose. Li Beixiang stared at this face and said with a strange expression.

How could it be like this overnight? It couldn't be, it smelled like it had been rotting for a long time.

"When did you find out?"

Li Bei looked at a slave standing next to him, and said with a slight frown.

"We also found out this morning when we got up to clean the yard. This person's name is Zhao Laosan, usually this person is a little taciturn, and he has a problem. I just love to play. Particularly fond of gambling. Every month's monthly money, he will lose everything. Last night. He and I slept in the same house. He got up in the middle of the night and said he was going to the bathroom, but he didn't come back one night, and I didn't care. ”

"I thought he had gone gambling again last night, but who knew when he got up this morning to clean the yard. He was found lying in the yard, and he became like this. The slave looked at Li Beixiang and said cautiously.

Li Beixiang stood up and looked around. After a closer look at the surrounding environment, I didn't find anything out of the ordinary.

"Brother Li, do you think it's possible that the person we met last night wasn't him, but someone else?"

Liu Youcheng pulled Li Beixiang's sleeve and said with a nervous face.

"How?"

Li Bei looked at Liu Youcheng and asked in a low voice.

"Do you think it's possible that this slave was killed and cut off his face and put it on his own face to get away with it?"

Liu Youcheng looked a little nervous.

"What do you mean? Why don't I understand?"

Li Beixiang dropped the skin in his hand and asked suspiciously.

"I mean, the dark shadow we met last night, he was bumped into by us and wanted to run away. However, he was overtaken by the black cat, and could not escape for a while, so he killed the slave who was convenient in the grass, cut off his face, and fooled us in front of us. ”

Liu Youcheng thought for a while, sorted out his language, and spoke.

"That's what you said. No, it's not possible. But why did he want to fool around in front of us? Could it be that he thought we could really deal with him?" Li Beixiang said with a grim face, thinking for a while.

"How do I know that? When they received the task before, it was very clearly written. said that the demon cultivator had been injured, and his cultivation had dropped badly. But I don't understand. Why did this demon cultivator dare to appear in the garrison of the General's Mansion? Wasn't he afraid of running into the soldiers in the General's Mansion? I really couldn't understand it. ”

Liu Youcheng said lightly.

"What's the point of talking so much now? The point is that I don't know where that demon cultivator is now?"

Li Beixiang took out his folding fan and shook it vigorously, trying to dispel the unpleasant smell.

"Alright, let's not worry about it for now. Let's go have breakfast first, let the people stationed in the general's mansion deal with this matter first, let's stay here for three or four days now, and then make arrangements when the garrison general returns. ”

Li Beixiang shook the folding fan and walked out of the small courtyard.

"Brother Li, wait for me, let's go there for dinner, shouldn't we stay in the general's mansion to eat again?"

Liu Youcheng hurriedly caught up with Li Beixiang and asked in a low voice.

"Let's go eat outside. ”

Li Bei waved his big hand and walked outside.

The two walked out of the general's mansion and came out on the street.

"East Building? What is this? Looks pretty big. Li Beixiang stood in front of a small building, shook his fan and whispered.

"You two are extroverts, aren't you?

A man dressed in a scribe's garment happened to walk in front of Li Bei. Hearing Li Beixiang's words, he turned his head and said a word.

"Oh, how so?"

Li Beixiang shook the folding fan and looked curiously at this person who looked like a scribe.

"Hehe, if the two of you are strangers, then it won't be strange. This east building is the best and highest specification green building in our Lanyang County. Ordinary people are not allowed to enter at all. I heard that a cup of tea here costs three taels of silver. If you two want to go in and see the world, that's fine, but if you want to enjoy it, I think it's okay. ”

The scribe-looking man looked at Li Beixiang and Liu Youcheng with a smile.

"Heh, isn't it just a green building, I want to see how luxurious it can be. ”

Li Beixiang put away the folding fan, raised his legs and walked towards the east building.

"That is, I agree with Brother Li. I don't believe it, a small green building, what special place can there be. ”

Liu Youcheng pinched a jade pendant, followed Li Beixiang, and walked into the east building.

"Yo, two sons, please inside. ”

As soon as Li Beixiang and Liu Youcheng stepped into the door, a turtle man greeted them with a smile on his face.

This turtle male also has some eyesight, and under normal circumstances, people in this kind of place have the ability to see people very accurately.

When the turtle boy took a look, he saw that the one at the head was dressed in a white embroidered brocade robe and held a folding fan in his hand.

He wears a jade headband and a hairpin made of agate to hold his hair tightly.

"Oh, this must be the son of a rich man. ”

The turtle man's eyes lit up.

Generally speaking, children who are not from wealthy families generally do not wear white. Because it is too easy to get dirty, and the price of white clothes is basically more expensive.

Look at the man behind him, dressed in a black robe, embroidered with gold thread on it with birds and beasts. Holding a crystal clear jade pendant in his hand.

"These two are certainly not ordinary. ”

This turtle man thought so in his heart.

"Haha, I didn't expect you to be a bitch. ”

Li Beixiang put away the folding fan, laughed, took out an ingot of silver about three taels from his arms, and threw it at his feet.

"Xie Gongzi rewards. ”

When the turtle saw the silver on the ground, his eyes instantly narrowed together, he knelt down with a smile, kowtowed first, and then smiled and put the silver into his arms.

"Yes, a good minion. ”

Liu Youcheng also took out a silver ingot from his arms and threw it to the ground.

"Two masters, please. ”

The turtle man smiled and stuffed the silver that Liu Youcheng had dropped into his arms, bowed his body, and said respectfully.

"This is the first time this son has come to you, I am not very familiar with it, do you have anything to introduce to us?"

Li Beixiang opened the folding fan with a smile and said condescendingly.

"Two masters, follow me. ”

The turtle man hunched over and led the two of them inside.

"You're here, hurry up and entertain someone. ”

The turtle boy wore a melon-skin hat and yelled loudly inside.

"Yo, who is here?"

An old bustard, about forty years old, led a group of girls with warblers and swallows out.

When the old bustard saw Li Beixiang and the two of them, his eyes lit up, and he twisted the waist of the water snake and walked to Li Beixiang.

According to the old bustard's decades of experience, Li Beixiang and Liu Youcheng must be the sons and daughters of a rich family.

"This boy looks like he is looking good, it's the first time I've come to our East Building. ”

The old bustard bent slightly, bowed, and said in a charming tone.

"Yes, this is also the first time for this son to come to you, I wonder if this mother has anything to introduce to our brothers?"

Li Beixiang closed the folding fan and smiled slightly.

"Come with me, both of you. ”

The old bustard lowered his head and smiled, and led the two to the second floor.

"The boy in white is so handsome. ”

A girl looked at Li Beixiang with stars in her eyes, looking like a nymphomaniac.

"Nonsense, that man in black is handsome. ”

A slightly chubby girl looked at Liu Youcheng with a nymphomaniac look and retorted.

"Nonsense, the man in white is handsome. ”

"You're talking nonsense, the man in black is handsome. ”

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

"Shut up, you guys. ”

The old bustard turned his head and scolded, and said to Li Beixiang and Liu Youcheng with a smile on his face: "The two sons are smiling, and this group of girls has never seen such a personable, handsome and chic son like the two. ”

"Haha, out of the way, out of the way. ”

Li Bei waved his big hand and laughed.

"Yes, out of the way. ”

Liu Youcheng also laughed.

"The two sons have arrived. This is the most luxurious room in our East Building, please wait a moment. ”

The old bustard saluted, turned and left the house.

Li Beixiang knelt down in front of a low table, put the folding fan in his hand on the low table, picked up the teapot on the low table, and poured a cup of tea by himself.

"Brother Li, what don't you think about here?"

Liu Youcheng put down the jade pendant in his hand and looked at Li Beixiang.

"Hehe, yes, it's a bit of a look. ”

Li Bei took a sip of tea and muttered.

"Haha, Brother Li. It seems that you still don't come to this kind of place, but in my opinion, this place is just like that. ”

Liu Youcheng said with a smile.

Li Beixiang put down the teacup and said, "Oh, what do you say?"

"Hehe, Brother Li, I can't say it, it's just intuition. Liu Youcheng smiled mysteriously and did not speak again.

"Two sons, do you want to listen to music or ............?"

The old bustard suddenly pushed open the door and led a few people in.

A turtle man walked up to Li Beixiang with a plate, knelt on the ground, and carefully placed the contents of the plate on the low table.

The other turtle man held an incense burner, placed it on the low table, and lit the spices inside.

"Listen to the music. ”

Li Beixiang waved his hand casually and said.

"Okay, I'll arrange it. ”

The old bustard saluted and led the two turtles out.
