Chapter 163: Trapped in the Courtyard
Doctor Cao kindly gave them a few pieces of rune paper, but unexpectedly, these people completely scoffed at the rune paper, and said that if these talisman incense candles were useful, they would not have been oppressed by the three-faced demon king for so long.
After saying that, the group left together.
I walked over to the new corpse, which was also wrapped in a piece of cloth.
"I'll do it." Dr. Cao seemed to be afraid of scaring me, so he leaned over to help lift the shroud.
With a "chirp", the shroud was lifted.
A shriveled face, but it can be seen that the face of a girl who is not very old meets our eyes.
She should be eleven or twelve? I thought about it and immediately shook my head.
Because, children from poor families will look much thinner and smaller than ordinary children.
Just like Rong Chunmei, when I first saw her, I mistakenly thought she was only twelve or thirteen years old, and later I realized that she had reached the age of peace.
Therefore, the corpse in front of him is hard to say.
Dr. Cao stretched out his hand and began to examine the body carefully.
"Brute! Beasts are not as good as things, I'm going to catch him and avenge the apricots! Qin Lian was immediately annoyed when he saw the new corpse appear.
He stood up and was about to rush out of the house.
Du Xiaowei hurriedly stretched out her hand and grabbed Qin Lian.
"Qin Gongzi, calm down, it's late at night, go out at this moment, I'm afraid it's not safe." Du Xiaowei grabbed Qin Lian's arm.
"I just want to see who is the hand of the demon, even if I fight for my life, I will avenge Xing'er!" Qin Lian was extremely emotional.
"Qin Gongzi, now, the body of this red apricot girl has not been disposed of, if something happens to you, what should she do?" My words calmed down Qin Lian, who was originally a little out of control.
His gaze looked at Hongxing again, and then he sat down weakly on the ground.
"It's that I'm useless, they're all demons, but I can't protect her." Qin Lian's mouth muttered in a low voice.
My gaze was on Dr. Cao.
Dr. Cao not only examined the corpse carefully, but also sniffed the smell on her body.
"Doctor Cao, the cause of death between her and Miss Hongxing is the same, right?" I lowered my voice and asked Dr. Cao.
Doctor Cao nodded, and the corpse had no other external injuries except for the wound on the neck, so it was certain that it died after being sucked dry of blood.
"However, there is no demonic energy on her body." After Dr. Cao finished speaking, he carefully opened the bloody wound and gently opened it to check the wound.
After pulling like this, there was still a little blood oozing out of the wound, which showed that the girl had just died, and the blood was still bright red.
"Didn't drink it clean?" What Dr. Cao cared about, but it was different from mine, he muttered, why this time, the blood was not drunk.
"I probably met those patrols, so I didn't have time." I thought about it and said.
Doctor Cao listened, but asked rhetorically: "Do you think that demons are afraid of mortals?" ”
"It's not that I'm afraid, I should just be worried about being discovered, after all, if it spreads, it's not easy for him to find "prey" again. I reasoned.
Dr. Cao lowered his eyes and did not say a word.
"Your father, how are you resting?" Doctor Cao asked inexplicably.
"Huh? He didn't call me, so I guess I was resting well. I responded.
After all, this doesn't let me go into the house to accompany me, I'm outside the house, how can I know the specific situation inside the house?
After hearing this, Dr. Cao stood up and walked towards his father's room.
I looked at Dr. Cao's back, and after he entered the house, it didn't take long for the candles in the room to light up. Please net
Then, the next moment, he suddenly rushed out of the house.
He shouted at me, "Where is your father?" ”
"Didn't my father rest in the house?" I'm confused.
However, since Dr. Cao asked so, it goes without saying that Dad must be no longer in the house now.
Sure enough, I ran to the door of the house, and saw a black curtain on the bed, and a very thick iron chain hung on the bed.
"Doctor Cao, the iron chain?" I stared at the chain and thought of the scene when I saw my senior brother in Xiao Ce Villa.
At that time, the senior brother had almost become a "beast" and needed to be restrained by iron chains.
Isn't it, Dad has already reached that level?
Dr. Cao did not respond to my question, but began to look around in his house for his father's traces.
But after searching for it in this circle, there was no trace of my father at all.
Doctor Cao gasped slightly, and muttered to himself: "There is no reason, it is impossible for him to get out of this house after clearly setting up the formation." ”
His words made me shiver immediately.
I looked at Dr. Cao in amazement, because I and I always thought that this formation around the house was set up by Dr. Cao and they didn't let Fuyou and other monsters get close.
Unexpectedly, that formation was actually to trap my father in this house?
"Doctor Cao? That formation has been broken! I hurriedly confessed.
"What?" This time, it was Dr. Cao's turn to stare at me with wide eyes.
My heart was in turmoil, and I said, "I broke it with locust leaf powder, me?" ”
"Smack!" With a bang, Dr. Cao directly raised his hand and slapped me hard.
The slap was so crisp that my ears buzzed.
"Sister?" Du Xiaowei immediately rushed over and blocked in front of me.
"You stinky old man, why are you beating the sunset?" The floater also quickly rolled over from the roof.
Dr. Cao looked at us, then pointed to the two corpses.
"If you hadn't destroyed the formation, they might not have died!" Doctor Cao said angrily.
"Eh, what do you mean by this, is it difficult, is it a suspicion, it is not the demon who kills and sucks blood, but Xiyan's father?" As soon as these words came out, the courtyard instantly became extremely quiet.
Actually, I thought about this possibility, since it is not a demon, then who can do something like an ordinary person to devour blood? It seems that Dad now has an indescribable desire for blood.
Although he tried his best to be patient and restrained, even at the expense of suppressing himself with rooster blood, it was obvious that it seemed to be counterproductive.
"Divide up at once, and find him back tonight." Doctor Cao said that, and rushed out of the courtyard.
I looked at Du Xiaowei: "Xiaowei, you are guarding this courtyard." ”
With that, I ran out the door.
The float followed, and we watched Dr. Cao run towards the pier stairs, and we ran towards the market.
As I ran, I called, "Dad! Father! ”
In this way, it took more than an hour to find it, and in the end it was really impossible to run, so I was pulled by the float and sat at the door of a wine shop to rest.
"Xiyan, this matter has not yet been decided, I don't think it may have been done by your father." Floater looked at me and said.
I gasped for breath, but all I could think of was red apricots and the appearance of the female corpse that appeared tonight.
Not necessarily, but it is also possible that the plan for today is to find my father first.
