Chapter 18: The Demon

Li Chongzhao looked at Qi Zuo: "Is this Li Chengren from the household department?"

He nodded: "When Lord Li sent it, he was not completely dead, but he was too frightened, and the villain was powerless."

Li Chongzhao was silent.

Xiao Li walked towards the second corpse, this was a relatively young man, the wound was in the head, a large hole in the blood, the intracranial tissue had died, and the blood clotted at this time, and his pale face looked more and more terrifying and gloomy.

"This is Wang Xiaoer of Chunping Street, he was killed when he got up to go to the toilet at night, and I heard that he had just made a marriage not long ago. When claiming the body, the little lady who did not pass through the door cried and fainted several times. ”

When Li Chongzhao looked at the corpse that was not yet young, his gaze was somewhat unbearable.

Pear-chan looked at the third corpse. Unlike the other two, the corpse was also a young man, but there were no obvious horror wounds on its body. It was also peaceful when he died, and there was nothing strange about it.

Li Chongzhao apparently also discovered this: "Did you find out this morning?"

The prefect was visibly confused: "Yes. But the villain wondered about the cause of this man's death. He was not fatally wounded, but strangely enough, this was the case. There were no fatal wounds, no poisoning, so how did he die? ”

Li Chongzhao also frowned: "Didn't you say that it was found by the water's edge?" Is there a possibility of drowning? ”

He shook his head: "There is no water in the lungs."

Li Chongzhao sighed, things were far more tricky than he imagined. Just when he wanted to call Xiao Li back home, he found that something was wrong with Xiao Li, and she seemed to be trembling.

Li Chongzhao pulled her over from the corpse, a little blamed: "Scared? I told you a long time ago not to come with me. But the look on his face was already full of indifference and gloom.

Pear's face turned pale, but her eyes were still fixed on the peaceful corpse.

If she wasn't mistaken, the corpse's eyes seemed to grunt. The blood-colored eyelids were covered with a black mist invisible to the human eye.

She swallowed in horror.

If it's really what she thinks, then it's really creepy......

On the way back to the palace, she was still haunted.

Li Chongzhao thought she was frightened, and specially instructed the family doctor to decoct a pair of sleeping pills for her. He waited until she fell asleep before leaving.

Pear didn't know why she was so scared.

It was like a nightmare, a nightmare shared by people in the Three Realms.

She was sure she was right, and although the first two of the three corpses seemed more cruel, they were only the most unscrupulous of the little goblins, who were often interested in raw meat, and ate them alive.

And the third corpse, more precisely, is not a corpse. The body is dead and the soul is immortal, only a little bit of sucking essence will come here, and the eyelids are floating with black qi, which should be the unique mark of that person, the Gu worm derived from the body. And such a murderous method can only be done by Xiu Yan.

Xiu Yan, the cold-blooded killer who is the number one on the demon list.

When she was young, her brother once told her that even if she was an enemy of the entire Three Realms, she should not provoke Xiu Yan. My brother's frightened expression is still vivid. It was a monster, and no number of immortals sent by the Divine Realm could kill it. He regards murder as a continuation of life, and in his eyes, there is no distinction between children and women.

He had lived for many, many years, and had heard that a thousand years ago he had been cruel and unreckless, but in recent years he has committed very few crimes. Some people also speculated that his destiny was coming, but although he said so, he did not dare to relax. The immortals hidden in the Three Realms are still secretly pursuing.

And now, he has reappeared. After many years, he actually returned to the world.

Xiao Li seemed to see the blood that was pouring all over the ground, killing ......

What should she say to Li Chongzhao? Say that there is the most terrible demon in the world in your world, and say that he should run for his life?

No, how is that possible.

Not to mention whether he believes it or not, she has no evidence, can she tell the fact that she is also a monster? When the time comes, what will he think of her?

When she looked closely, the night was thick and dark, and she felt as if there were a pair of eyes staring at her in the dark. A cold sweat broke out from her back, and she pulled the quilt over her head. The temperature in the quilt gradually rose, and she gradually fell asleep in the warmth.

The sleeping little pear didn't know that on this night, everyone's life trajectory quietly kicked off. Everything is like a spider's web, and those who fall into it are constantly falling, falling until the abyss from which there will be no return......

In the early morning, before dawn, the footsteps in the house sounded.

Xiao Li listened sleepily for a while, but she didn't hear any moths, and slept for a while with her head covered.

After only a few seconds, she quickly sat up, and her sleep was gone. I don't know why, her heart was beating so fast that something bad seemed to be happening.

As soon as Xiaoli went out, a domestic servant hurriedly walked in front of her, it was Brother Shun. Xiao Li grabbed him: "What happened?"

Brother Shun showed a worried look, and lowered his voice in embarrassment: "It's dead."

Xiao Li was startled, and by the way, Brother pulled out of her hand. Peara settled down and ran towards the crowd.

It was a rockery in the palace, and the water surrounded by groups of people could not be passed, and occasionally there were people walking through it, and the officials of the Dali Temple who saw that day were also in the crowd.

Xiao Li covered her pounding heart and looked around, but there was no Li Chongzhao.

Something so big happened, he is the prince, how could he not have him? Xiao Li was so anxious that she wanted to shed tears, and the corner of her white clothes lying on the ground was as burning as fire at this time.

Don't be him, don't be him......

Suddenly, a warm hand took her hand, "Why are your hands so cold, are you frozen?" ”

Xiao Li looked back, and the tears couldn't help but roll down.

Li Chongzhao's tone was a little cold: "Good and dignified, what's wrong with you, I'm afraid that if I see this, I should set up a point in the house, and run around all day long, I can't find you."

Little Pear can retract her tears, knowing that this is not the time for her to shed tears.

She looked at Li Chongzhao: "Someone in the house was killed?"

Li Chongzhao's expression darkened, Xiao Li saw his hesitation, and just woke up to speak, but he had already heard his answer: "It's Minglang."

Pear froze.

How could it be him?

Xiao Li pushed aside the crowd, and then saw the whole picture of the man in white on the ground.

His eyes were closed quietly, without any external wounds, only the gurgling and squirming and a faint black mist on his eyelids.

It's Xiuyan! It's that terrifying demon!

No one can stop him!

Xiao Li didn't dare to look at Ming Lang's eyes again. At that moment, she didn't want to know why Xiu Yan wanted to kill, why she chose Minglang, why she was in the palace, she only knew that the world was no longer safe.

Li Chongzhao calmly instructed everyone to perform their duties and dispose of the corpse, and Chang Hui, an official of Dali Temple, bowed his hand to Li Chongzhao and said: "Lord, the minister will take the corpse away first, and the corpse will be further disposed of."

Li Chongzhao also replied: "Then it's troublesome for Lord Chang, this king will come later."
