Chapter 61: Killing in the middle of the night
After Li Si finished practicing in the courtyard, this familiar voice came into his ears at this time.
"Boom! - Knock! ”
"Boom! - Knock! ”
"Boom! - Knock! ”
"It's dry, watch out for the candles!" A voice came from afar, and it was very abrupt in the already quiet twilight.
Li Si heard this sound of beating, groaned slightly, and picked up a cloth towel from the side to wipe the sweat off his body.
When he had finished wiping, he went into the study and lit a candle with a fire.
Under the flickering of the candlelight, he sat down in his chair and began to read the book, he was going to sleep later these days, to see if he could wait until the ghost thing that killed Liu Qin.
Obviously, Liu Qin's death is so weird, nine times out of ten it is related to monsters and ghosts.
And Li Si also learned from Xiao Jian that the monsters and ghosts did not dare to stay in the county for a long time, because there was a terrifying pressure that made the demons tremble, Xiao Duan and Xiao Yu were controlled by Li Si, otherwise they would have run away.
So he wondered why there were still demons and ghosts who dared to kill people in the county.
At the same time, Li Si also felt that Liu Qin's death must be related to the book sold to him. And Liu Qin also knows the beginning and end of this matter. But it's a pity that I don't know what Liu Qin is worried about, and I don't say a word about myself.
He had some ideas in his mind, but he always felt that he was lacking something, and his thoughts were never connected.
He didn't even know whether Liu Qin's matter was something weird or not, and it was even more difficult to figure it out.
After all, Li Si has too little information to infer at all.
Shaking his head slightly, he cleared away his cluttered thoughts and read the book quietly.
It's just that above Li Si's head, a piece of brick and tile was quietly removed, and a pair of red eyes were revealed.
On the roof, a man in a red leather jacket was staring at Li Si below, his lips opening in a strange arc, revealing the sharp teeth in his mouth, and saliva continued to drip on the bricks and tiles next to him.
The man in the red leather jacket seemed to have thought of something, and turned his head to look at the courtyard, where a boy was looking left and right.
There was a look of jealousy in the eyes of the man in the red leather jacket, and then his expression showed a look of struggle, and his eyes became even redder, as if they were about to drip blood, making his already hideous face even more hideous.
At this time, he stretched out his right hand to cover his face, and five fingers scraped down from his forehead, scraping five deep finger marks, until the palm reached the lower jaw, and he began to cover his deformed mouth with the palm of his hand, covering it to make him look much more normal, no different from ordinary people.
But saliva still flowed down his fingers and chin, and there was a look of resentment in his eyes from time to time.
Then the man in the red leather jacket continued to look at Li Si in the study.
After a few hours passed, Li Si was a little tired, blew out the candles, and went to the bedroom.
The man in the red jacket looked at Li Si's departing back, and slowly released his mouth with his right hand, at this time his lips were gone, revealing a jaw bone densely covered with fine teeth, and from time to time sticky saliva trickled down from the corner of his mouth.
The red eyes of the man in the red jacket glanced at the boy in the courtyard resentfully, and then he turned his head, and his body flew lightly to the roof of the other rooms, and so on, and after a while, the figure disappeared.
What Li Si didn't know was that there had been a ghost thing peeping at him on the roof for the past few days. But it's no wonder that he, he's been in this world for so long, and he's never seen a flying ghost. Even Xiao Duan and Xiao Yu can't fly. So it also caused a blind spot for him, thinking that ghosts can't fly.
So he didn't pay attention to the roof, and he didn't let Xiao Duan look at the roof.
However, it is still good for him to let Xiao Duan guard him in recent days, at least he has made this ghost jealous and has not harmed him.
…………
In a dark cell, on a haystack, a woman with a withered face sat on a haystack.
"Tsk...... ......"
From time to time, rats can be heard scurrying, biting, and chirping in the cell.
The rest of the neighboring cells were empty, and she was the only one, apparently the woman being held in solitary confinement.
Suddenly, at one point, the rat's voice faded away, and at first there were a few chirps, but they disappeared immediately. The cell suddenly fell silent.
And when the cell became dead and silent, a figure in a red leather jacket stood in the corridor of the cell at some point.
"I'm going to kill you......" A voice came into the ears of the withered woman.
The woman's expression changed, and she became a little frightened, and shouted, "Don't come here...... You don't come over ......."
"I'm going to kill you......"
"Liu Qin, you are going to kill me...... That's why I'm going to kill you...... Don't pester me anymore......" The woman's face was frightened, and her body shrank in the corner and shivered.
She stared at the aisle with horrified eyes, only to find nothing.
"Tick ......"
A drop of mucus fell on the woman's cheek, causing the woman to stiffen with fright, and she didn't even dare to tremble.
She looked up stiffly and slowly, and saw a man in a red leather jacket looking at her upside down, and she could clearly see the man's red eyes and a mouthful of sharp teeth.
"Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee......"
Seeing the woman see him, the man in the red jacket looked extremely excited, and couldn't help but salivate from his dense and thin teeth.
The sticky saliva dripped down the woman's face, and the woman looked at the man in fear, and her body did not move.
"I'm going to kill you......" The man in the red jacket opened his mouth to speak, and Liu Qin's voice sounded.
"Ah!!h A scream came from the prison, far, far away.
…………
Li Si got the news of Mrs. Liu Qin's death a few days later, and heard Luo Ye say that this Mrs. Liu Qin died extremely miserably, as if she was crazy, and she tore her throat.
Hearing this news, he was sure that there must be a ghost at work, if Liu Qin's strange death was a coincidence, then coupled with Mrs. Liu's strange death, it is not a coincidence that can be explained.
Li Si was sitting in the restaurant at this time, looking at the tall temple in the distance, stunned.
That temple is the City God Temple.
He was a little uneasy in his heart, this ghost thing was killing people in the city, and this city god didn't care about it, he was afraid that this ghost thing was related to this city god.
Otherwise, this can't explain why this ghost thing dares to kill people at will in the county.
Li Si has been in this world for so long, and probably knows that if it were not for the protection of the City God, this county would have been in chaos. But he saw the other side of the city god in this matter.
Perhaps, this city god is not as reliable as it seems.
