From Dr. Cao's house to this stone step, the distance is very short, and it doesn't take half a cup of tea to arrive.

Along the way, Dr. Cao whispered to me to go back, and I followed closely by his side and asked, "Dr. Cao, this matter has nothing to do with my father, right?" ”

Doctor Cao's eyes suddenly sank: "What nonsense? This matter naturally has nothing to do with your father. ”

He lowered his voice and reprimanded me.

"But, my father?" I thought that last night, when I returned to the house with Fuyou, I vaguely heard movement outside the yard, and at that time, I subconsciously thought it was Dr. Cao, so I didn't go out of the house to check.

"Enough! Stop it. He interrupted me, and his steps quickened.

When we reached the stone steps, the men who led us over retreated to both sides to make way for Dr. Cao.

Dr. Cao and I glanced down the stone steps, where the body was wrapped in coarse cloth and dragged to the top of the stone steps to protect him or her from the river.

Dr. Cao leaned over and lifted the shroud directly.

A pale sunken face was impressively imprinted in my eyes.

Judging from the hair and clothing, this should be a woman, but the face is really difficult to recognize, because now we have a skinny corpse in front of us.

Dr. Cao turned her face around, and the shocking tooth marks on her neck made people feel intimidated.

"Doctor Cao, you said, she was bitten to death by something?"

The men behind him asked Dr. Cao.

"How can you tell just a tooth mark?" After Dr. Cao finished speaking, he turned his face sideways and said to these people: "It's better to send the body back to my house first." ”

"Eh, so unlucky, would you like to?" Those people looked at Dr. Cao: "We are worried, we don't know who she is, I don't know where to put the body, Dr. Cao, you will keep it on your behalf, it is naturally the best." ”

After these people finished speaking, they began to lift the body with their hands and feet, and then followed Dr. Cao and walked back.

I looked at Dr. Cao, and his face was gloomy.

And I, too, felt uneasy.

After all, now my father is bloodthirsty, and this woman was sucked dry of blood, and she died, and she died on the stone steps by the river, which was very close to Dr. Cao's courtyard.

"Doctor Cao, let's put this person in the front yard, and further inside, I'm afraid it will be bad for your luck." These people are right.

However, sending this kind of dead corpse to one's own house is actually a violation of the rules.

What fortune, it has long been broken.

"Just put it here." Dr. Cao pointed to the side of the courtyard, which was blocked by the eaves and could not be exposed to the sun.

"Go back first, go to the town, and ask which family has lost the girl." Dr. Cao said to the men.

"Okay." They hurriedly leaned over Dr. Cao, and then all exited the courtyard of Dr. Cao's house.

As soon as they left, Dr. Cao closed the courtyard door.

Then, he lifted the shroud from the corpse once again and began to examine the corpse carefully.

He examined the female corpse from the hair to the soles of the feet, and finally, his attention fell on the female corpse's hands.

"It's a girl from a flower house." Dr. Cao only glanced at it and said this.

"Doctor Cao, how do you know that she is a girl from Hualou?" I looked at Dr. Cao curiously.

Because, the girl in front of her has no ornaments on her head, but the clothes she wears are also plain, and she doesn't look like a girl in a flower building at all.

The girls were greased and powdered, dressed in gold and silver, and dressed pretty. Line

"She has Kodan on her fingernails." Dr. Cao pointed to the woman's fingernails.

I took a look, and it was indeed a rose-red kodan.

"However, if there is Kodan, it doesn't mean that the other party is the girl from Hualou." I thought about it, many big ladies are also smeared with Kodan, and even the ladies in the palace are also dyed Kodan.

"This kotan is mixed with gold dust." Dr. Cao motioned for me to take a closer look.

I immediately crouched down and took a closer look, and it was true, the gold dust was still shining.

"Maybe it's a young lady from a big family." I thought that if I could mix gold dust in Kodan, then my family background must be extraordinary.

Doctor Cao shook his head firmly, and pointed to the girl's ankle.

I looked towards the ankle and saw a red rope wrapped around the ankle.

"The girls in Hualou, when they receive benefactors, they have to take off their clothes, and the red rope is just to keep themselves naked, which is their last dignity." After Dr. Cao finished speaking, he took the hand of the female corpse again, sniffed and sniffed.

Then, handed me his hand.

I frowned, looked at the soaked white hand, and was a little stunned, but I still obediently stepped forward and sniffed it carefully.

"What a heavy fishy smell! Could it be that the fish is lean? I looked at Dr. Cao.

Doctor Cao did not respond, but pulled out a scale from the female corpse's nails.

The scales are blue-black and extremely small, the size of a tiny fingernail.

"These are the scales of the dragon's beard." Doctor Cao sniffed it and muttered something in his mouth.

"Dragonbeard fish? That is, this fish has become a sperm and comes out to hurt people? "I looked at the scales, and my heart, which had been hanging, finally let go.

I also feel guilty for doubting my father, and it is absolutely impossible for my father to harm people's lives.

"But?" Doctor Cao seemed to think of something again, and muttered: "Dragonbeard fish, are you also bloodthirsty?" If you are really bloodthirsty, why not swallow the meat too? How can there be a demon who drinks blood and doesn't eat meat? ”

"Dr. Cao?" I looked at him.

"It's okay, I'll ask my senior brother, don't move this corpse!" Dr. Cao specially advised.

"Okay." I nodded and stood up.

Dr. Cao immediately walked towards my father's room, and as soon as he entered the room, my door opened, and I walked out of the house with such a swagger.

Du Xiaowei looked left and right, carefully helping the floater look around, it seemed as if Du Xiaowei was a demon and was afraid of being discovered.

"Xiyan, what's the situation?" Floater walked briskly to my side.

"Let's go, don't let Dr. Cao find out!" I hurriedly spoke, urging to float.

Fuyou glanced at the corpse, sniffed again, and said, "Fishy smell, is it fish essence hurting people?" ”

"It should be, you should go." I urged again.

"Alright, alright, I'm leaving." After Float finished speaking, he pushed the door and walked out.

"Ringing ringing!"

The bell on the door rang instantly, and I hurriedly motioned for Du Xiaowei to come over.

At this time, Dr. Cao also pushed the door out to check.

"Doctor Cao, Xiaowei wants to go to the street to buy some vegetables and come back." I looked at Dr. Cao and said with a smile.

"Don't go out, it's not peaceful." He glanced at Du Xiaowei, who was standing in front of the door, said lightly, and then retreated into the room.
