Chapter 6: The Man-Eating Monster

It happened a few days ago.

It was daytime, and the sergeant guarding the city yawned and opened the door, and there were a few people standing scattered outside the door, looking like they had come to the county seat to catch the market.

There is a big bazaar in the county seat, and people from villages outside the county town will often come to buy things.

After all, Luhun County is not the capital, and there is no such strict defense. The captain guarding the city saw that they were all familiar faces, so he hurriedly let them go.

"If only they had taken a look, who knew it was all monsters!" Shopkeeper Ye sighed for a long time.

Jing Liang asked on the side, "Isn't there anything strange about this monster from its appearance?" ”

"Not really. The little one only saw it once, and he could see that something was wrong. They look like ordinary people, but their eyes are glazed, and if you ask him, he won't care. ”

"Could it be that the blinded monsters are the monsters?"

"Of course not. After you heard the little one, I was also in the market at the time, and my son was just six years old, so he found a private school to teach. He was at the age of greed, and I thought about going to the market to buy him a pastry. ”

"At that time, there were quite a lot of people in the market, and many people from the village came, and it was very lively. At this time, it was not a meal, and I didn't run to the restaurant early in the morning, so I wandered around. ”

"Then, that group of people from Gubei Village appeared!"

Tang Yun glanced at Cui Fatty, Cui Fatzi listened very seriously, and when he saw Tang Yun looking at him, he quickly came back to his senses, and said loudly: "The county order of Luhun County reported to me is this Gubei Village!" ”

Shopkeeper Ye figured out that Cui Fatzi might be a big official, so he quickly restrained his tone and tried to recall what happened that day.

"I was looking at an antique stall, you know, you have to look closely. I looked so closely that I didn't notice what was going on behind the scenes. It wasn't until the quarrel behind me grew louder that I came back to my senses and looked back! ”

"What I saw was the eldest son of Jin Wanquan, a well-known wealthy businessman in the county. Although Master Jin is rich in the entire county, he has also done some good deeds. But this son is different, he eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, and has everything. In broad daylight, he brought a group of eagle dogs to the street. Some of the girls in the village were looked down upon by him, and they were only teased by him, and they dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak. ”

"As a result, I saw a young man standing in front of the golden prince, as if he was in his way. The golden prince was not a good character, and began to curse, and his eagle dog still pushed the young man. I inquired from the person next to me and found out that it was from Gubei Village. ”

The results that followed, obviously.

Jin Dagongzi, who was used to being arrogant on weekdays, naturally thought that the young man was provoking him, and in a fit of anger, he asked his subordinates to beat him.

"Who knows, the young man grabbed one of the thugs by the arm and bit it violently. The thug was also a ruthless man, and he picked up the mace in his hand and looked at the young man's head as a stick, and the blood flew everywhere. ”

"The people next to me were screaming, and when I saw blood, I quickly ran to the restaurant."

"When I was on the run, I took a special look, but it almost didn't scare my soul out!"

"The man who had just been hit on the head with a mace suddenly got up from the ground again, hugged the golden prince and threw himself on the ground."

"Just like a man-eating monster, he bit the neck of the golden prince, and it was all blood. I was so frightened that I didn't have time to think about it and ran back to my restaurant. ”

After the shopkeeper Ye finished speaking, he wiped the sweat on his head, and said with some palpitations: "Later, I heard that the whole market was in chaos at that time, and there were many man-eating monsters. ”

"There was a battalion from the Chichong Province stationed here, and the officers and soldiers came to suppress it. I didn't see it, but I heard that the officers and troops had withdrawn again, but the bazaar had set up barricades and forbade people to pass through. ”

"At that time, rumors were spreading everywhere in the county, and I was so frightened that I quickly took my child out of the private school and let him study in the restaurant. This restaurant is my own, and the guys are scared, so I ran out of the city, and I had to stay here by myself. ”

"Another day later, some people from the government came to the streets, saying that there have been a lot of man-eating monsters in the city recently. Let's keep our doors and windows closed and be careful. I'm a restaurant, the rice and noodles are complete, and it's not a problem to stay at home......"

Cui Fatzi's eyes widened: "You've been staying in the house, and you haven't gone out?" ”

"You don't know, I happened to be sleeping on the second floor that night. It was the middle of the night, and I suddenly heard someone knocking on the door in the middle of the night. ”

"The voice kept knocking, and it wasn't in a hurry, it was very gentle. I was woken up in the middle of the night, and I was a little angry, so I prepared to go downstairs and ask who it was. ”

"I suddenly remembered that the man-eating monster that appeared during the day, and I woke up in shock. I didn't dare to approach the door, so I ran to the second floor and opened the window and looked down from the window. Just then, you can see a man dressed in white, banging on the door one by one. ”

"Think about it, would a normal person slam the door in such a way? I hurried back to the house and told my mother-in-law to take care of my son and never go out! I even heard the screams of the shopkeeper next door, he must have opened the door! ”

"It wasn't until the next day that I noticed that the streets were empty! No one even spoke to the county government, some of them had already run away, and my property was here, where could I escape? ”

Shopkeeper Ye's expression was very bitter, there were man-eating monsters in the past few days, in addition to being scared every day, his business had also been greatly affected. Fortunately, he has also made a lot of money over the years, and it doesn't hurt to be idle for a while.

Cui Fatzi sighed: "I didn't expect the matter to be so serious, it seems that what Lu Hun County Ling told me is probably telling the truth." ”

Tang Yun's face was gloomy, and he got up and said, "Let's go, let's go to the county office!" ”

Seeing a few people getting up and leaving, Shopkeeper Ye hurriedly went out to greet him, and asked boldly, "My lord, the government won't leave us alone, right?" ”

"Lao Ye, don't worry, this adult is definitely handy!" Zhu Kuai smiled, and told the shopkeeper Ye to close the doors and windows, when he came in, he had already found a defect in one place.

Everyone rode to the government office, and the scene they saw on the road was the same as what Shopkeeper Ye said, there was a desolation everywhere.

The doors of some of the rooms were open, and Tang Yun could even see a line of bloody footprints sticking out from the inside, extending all the way to the outside.

"He said the local garrison had been here, why did he go back later?" Tang Yun asked in a deep voice.

Cui Fatzi said: "The soldiers here are all government soldiers, which are different from the forbidden army in the capital. How can they work hard, I probably didn't see any difficulties, so I hid first. ”

As he spoke, everyone had arrived at the door of the county office.
