Although she received something, it didn't mean that she would eat it.

Chu Mohan's hand holding the paper bag tightened slightly, and he didn't speak.

After two days of rest, the wind chill in Su Wan was completely cured.

The group continued to the northern continent.

As the day approached dusk, Su Wan lifted the curtain of the carriage.

Chu Mohan rode a horse and walked on the side of the carriage.

Su Wan asked, "Haven't arrived in Mocheng yet?" ”

Chu Mohan rode his horse and looked sideways at Su Wan: "We should be able to reach Mocheng before dark." ”

Looking at the generous official road, Su Wan said, "Do you feel that something is wrong?" ”

Chu Mohan raised his eyebrows, he had already noticed that something was wrong.

Bi Xiaoyao rode over and said, "You also noticed that something was wrong, we set out from that village in the morning, and we hardly met a few people along the way. ”

Leng Xue'er said: "Mocheng is the largest city in the north, although the weather is still a little cold now, but at this time, there are many merchants going to Mocheng, and there are also many businessmen coming out of Mocheng, we are taking the official road, it is impossible to meet such a few people in one day." ”

Leng Xue'er has been to Mocheng, and in her impression, although Mocheng is not as prosperous as the capital, it is also very lively, and there is an endless stream of businessmen.

"There's a tea stall in front of you, do you want to ask?" The sound of the night scene sounded.

Su Wan poked her head out of the carriage window and saw that there was indeed a tea stall not far ahead.

Su Wan said: "Then let's go to the tea stall in front to find out the news." ”

The group came to the tea stall.

The owner of the tea stall is an old man with some gray hair.

When the old man saw the group, he greeted him with a smile: "The guest officer drinks tea." ”

The group sat down at two tables.

Chu Mohan and Bi Xiaoyao, Su Wan, Leng Xue'er, and Ye Jingjing sat at the same table.

Light Breeze sat with the four protectors of the Bright Moon Pavilion.

Chu Mohan said: "The boss serves tea." ”

The owner of the tea stall said, "A few guest officers wait a minute. ”

Pour the steaming tea into the tea bowl.

Chu Mohan picked up the tea bowl and asked casually, "Boss, how far is it from Mocheng?" ”

The boss said, "There are still five or six miles to go." ”

Chu Mohan let out an "oh".

The boss glanced at the group: "How many guest officers are going to Mocheng?" ”

Bi Xiaoyao said: "Aren't you talking nonsense? This road is the road to Mocheng, if we don't go to Mocheng, where will we go? ”

The boss said: "I advise a few guest officers not to go?" ”

Ye Youjing took a sip of tea, and asked with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Why?" Could it be that something happened in Mexicana? ”

The boss opened his mouth, looking like he wanted to say something.

In the end, the boss sighed and said, "A few guest officers still don't know, there are monsters in Mocheng?" ”

"Youkai?" Leng Xue'er said curiously: "What monster?" ”

The boss lowered his voice: "There are blood-sucking monsters in Mocheng, and now no one dares to go to Mocheng, most of the people in Mocheng have left, and there are few people in the city." ”

It's no wonder they barely met a few people along the way.

Su Wan said: "A monster that sucks human blood? ”

Seeing that Su Wan didn't believe what he said, the boss said, "This matter has to start from two months ago." ”

"Near the end of the year, Mocheng was very lively, and one night, there was a drunken drunk man, suddenly urinating, and turned into a small alley that few people pass by on weekdays."

"The drunkard saw a man lying face down on the side of the alley wall, and at first the drunk man thought that this person was drunk and fell on the side of the road."

So he went up and asked the man if he was okay, but the man who fell to the ground did not answer him, and the drunkard thought that he was asleep, so he wanted to go up and help the man, but who knew that the drunkard found that the man's whole body was stiff, and he had long since lost his breath.

"The drunk sat down on the ground in fright, and it took a long time to recover, and the drunk turned over the body of the dead man, because it was dark, and the drunk only saw that the dead man's face was a little pale."

"As soon as the morning dawned, the drunk went to the yamen to report to the official, and the martial seat of the yamen arrived at the scene, and when he saw the pale face of the deceased, he didn't pay much attention to it.

"This corpse is very strange, there are no external injuries on the surface of the corpse, only two small holes in the neck, and the blood of the corpse has been sucked dry."

Hearing this, Su Wan couldn't help but think of vampires.

"From that day on, the people who were sucked dry blood appeared one after another, and the matter quickly spread, and now no one dares to go to Mocheng, for fear of being sucked dry by monsters."

Bi Xiaoyao didn't believe that there would be blood-sucking monsters at all: "Boss, you shouldn't make up stories and lie to us, right?" ”

The boss was a little angry and said: "What did I lie to you, it didn't do me any good if I lied to you, you are not afraid of being sucked dry by that monster, it is really a dog biting Lu Dongbin who does not know the hearts of good people." ”

Su Wan saw that the owner of the tea stall was really angry, and said with a smile: "It's not that we don't believe what the boss said, it's just that this matter is too appalling." ”

The boss's face softened a lot: "Don't blame the guest officials for not believing it, I didn't believe it at first, I have lived for decades, and it is the first time I have heard such a thing, one day I went to Mocheng to buy tea, and I happened to meet it, I saw it clearly, the deceased's face was not bloody at all, the expression on his face was very painful, and there were two small holes in his neck." ”

The boss shuddered at the thought of the corpse.

Chu Mohan spoke: "Thank you boss for the reminder, we have to go to Mocheng, we will definitely be careful." ”

The owner of the tea stall couldn't persuade him, so he didn't speak.

Su Wan looked at the sky, the slowly setting sun, and said, "Let's go." ”

The group continued in the direction of Mocheng.

The carriage traveled for about half an hour before it came to the outside of the city.

The gates of the city were opened, and not a man went in or out.

The group stopped in front of the city gates.

Su Wan opened the curtain of the carriage and looked at Mocheng with the city gate wide open.

It was dark at this time.

Looking at the open city gate, Su Wan felt like a monster's mouth.

Leng Xue'er said: "This place is completely different from the Mocheng I remembered. ”

Su Wan looked sideways at Leng Xue'er and asked, "You've been to Mocheng before." ”

Leng Xue'er nodded: "I've been here a few times." ”

The carriage drove slowly into the city, and there was not even a single figure on the wide street, and the doors and windows of the shops on both sides of the main street were closed, and none of the shops were lit.

Bi Xiaoyao said: "There shouldn't be no one in this city, right?" ”

Chu Mohan beside him said: "There should be people, but there are not many people." ”

The night scene behind them said: "I don't know if there is an inn with an open door, if not, my group will probably sleep on the streets tonight." ”

"I don't want to sleep on the streets." Leng Xue'er shuddered: "What should I do if I encounter a monster that sucks human blood." ”

Bi Xiaoyao patted his chest and said: "If it dares to come, the master will let it come and go, and I will definitely protect you." ”
