Chapter 20: The Headless Man Committed Murder
Early the next morning, Qiu Ling bought some breakfast, hastily ate some and went out, according to what she said was going to work, Zhang Xiaotian only knew at this time that she was a doctor or a surgeon, and the human anatomy in her mind was from her.
"You don't have an ID card, and you still have a murder on you, so it's best not to go out." Before leaving, Qiu Ling did not forget to remind him.
Zhang Xiaotian nodded, but how could he stay at home all the time, he wanted to go and see the old lady who had saved him, and it was best to send her to a safe place.
Therefore, not long after Qiu Ling left, Zhang Xiaotian also left, hitchhiking to the village outside the city, as soon as he entered the village, he felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, the village that was originally very lively, now quiet, and too quiet, not even the sound of chickens and dogs barking, not even a child playing on the street, and the door is closed.
Zhang Xiaotian hurriedly went to the old lady's house, the courtyard door was wide open, even the door of the main house was open, he wrinkled the door, the whole village was closed, why was her house open.
Zhang Xiaotian felt a little uneasy, walked a few steps, and when he arrived at the house, there was no one in the familiar room.
"Old man, I'm Zhang Xiaotian, where are you?" Zhang Xiaotian shouted, but did not respond for a long time.
The house is not big, there are three rooms in total, and there is not much furniture, but there are very few places to hide people, Zhang Xiaotian found all the places where he can hide people, and he did not find the figure of the old lady.
"Could it be..."
Zhang Xiaotian clenched his fists, he didn't dare to think that the old man was taken away, and the person who snatched the scroll had used the old lady to blackmail him, it didn't seem to be a lie.
In order to confirm his thoughts, Zhang Xiaotian knocked on the door of the house next door, and after questioning, he learned that something strange had happened in the village the night before.
It is rumored that there was a headless general in the village, holding a big knife, and killed a person, who was the son of the northernmost family surnamed Shijia in the village, during the day, the two of them earned some money in Ruhai City, drank some wine, and when they came back, it was completely dark, outside the village, the son of the Shi family went to the roadside conveniently.
Suddenly, a tall figure burst out and slashed it with a knife in his hand, and his father screamed in fright and passed out.
The screams alarmed the people in the village, and immediately a few young and bold people came over and woke up the old man, and at the same time, someone found the son of the Shi family who was in a different place, and everyone was frightened.
After repeated questioning, the old man of the Shi family stammered about the situation at that time.
Everyone had the courage to carry the body and head of the Shi family's son back to the Shi family, and the matter spread in the village, so no one dared to come out again.
When Zhang Xiaotian arrived at Shi's house, he didn't see the corpse, because according to local customs, his parents were there, and his son's body had to be buried before twelve o'clock the next day.
"The headless general must be pretending to be a person, and the purpose is probably to create panic and make everyone dare not come out, so that they can take the old lady away."
Zhang Xiaotian thought about it, but he calmed down, that person spent so much energy to take people away, not kill them, thinking that the old man's life is not in danger now.
Zhang Xiaotian went back to the old lady's house, he was waiting, waiting for the person who took the old lady away, if he was in the same group as the person who snatched the exercises, he would definitely find himself again.
Because that exercise is not recorded in modern Chinese characters, but in a font hundreds of millions of years ago, modern people don't know it at all.
"I'm afraid that another ancient warrior will wake up, I heard that strange things have happened in many places recently, and there are suddenly many mountains in the sea, could it be because of the ancient warrior."
Zhang Xiaotian stayed at the old lady's house until midnight, and did not receive a message from the other party, but Qiu Ling called, saying that there was a headless man standing outside the courtyard, wearing ancient clothes and holding a big knife.
"Do you want to capture Qiu Ling!"
Zhang Xiaotian hung up the phone, stretched his body, and ran towards Ruhai City, like a black lightning in the night, after getting all the serum, his speed was indescribably fast, and even the surveillance camera at the intersection could not catch his figure.
By the time he reached the outside of the Autumn Spirit Courtyard, the headless general had already left.
Zhang Xiaotian was worried about Qiu Ling's safety, so he broke into the house directly, and was about to go upstairs to check, when he suddenly remembered Qiu Ling's ban, the second floor was his forbidden area, so he had to shout downstairs.
A moment later, Qiu Ling ran down, followed by a girl, both of whom looked a little panicked and their faces were a little pale.
Anyone who sees a headless person at the door of his house in the middle of the night will not look good.
"You're back!"
When Qiu Ling saw Zhang Xiaotian, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and told him what had just happened.
That girl is Qiu Ling's colleague, her name is Hu Yun, today she came because of Qiu Ling's invitation, because she is still a little uneasy about Zhang Xiaotian, always afraid that he will do bad things to herself, although with Zhang Xiaotian's ability, one more Hu Yun will not affect anything at all, but there is always a comfort in her heart.
The two girls always have endless things to talk about together, even if it is an old routine, they can talk about new ideas, especially the appearance of Zhang Xiaotian and the life experience of the ancient warrior, the two chatted until midnight and failed to leave Zhang Xiaoshan.
Just when the two of them were about to sleep, Qiu Ling got up and turned off the lights, he inadvertently opened the curtains and saw the headless general standing outside his small courtyard.
Although the headless general had no head, he seemed to be staring at Qiu Ling, making her feel numb all over her body, and hurriedly called Zhang Xiaotian.
"The old lady who saved me is missing, and there is still one person dead in their village, and some people see that it was the headless general who killed her."
After listening to what Qiu Ling said, Zhang Xiaotian also told what happened in the village.
"Could that headless general be a zombie?" Hu Yun asked timidly.
Qiu Ling nodded, staring at Zhang Xiaotian with wide eyes, wanting to get confirmation. Zhang Xiaotian shook his head and said, "Zombie something?" ”
Hearing this, Qiu Ling and the two almost fainted, but thinking that the person in front of them had been washed of their memories, they naturally didn't know what zombies were, and it seemed that they had time to teach him more modern anecdotes
"In my opinion, that headless general is either a zombie king, or a headless ghost, how did you mess with this thing, it's over, I'm also unlucky, I shouldn't have come today." Hu Yun hurriedly turned in a circle.
"If you don't want to see this person who has lived for hundreds of millions of years, how can you come with me, all this is not your curiosity." Qiu Ling glanced at Hu Yun and said.
"I just want to see what people before us humans look like, if they have tails or something, who knows if you got into that thing."
Zhang Xiaotian ignored them, but turned on the computer and connected to the monitoring of the community, wanting to see where the headless general had run, and then looking for his hiding place through the monitoring on the road.
However, what gave Zhang Xiaotian a headache was that the headless general seemed to have disappeared suddenly, and there was no picture of him in the surveillance at all.
