0278 Midnight

It's normal that the living are gone. It's not normal for a dead person to be gone. What's more, Zhang Chen dug up Danzhu's dead body.

For Zhang Chen and Miao Xianxian, this is a big deal. Although in this era, zombies are running all over the streets. But this is different. It's even terrifying! Because the three of them are upstairs. But I didn't hear any movement. If this corpse had wanted to kill them at the time, it would have been impossible for them to sit here now, so it's hard to say.

Someone looking for a corpse.

The people who wanted to find the corpse of the Blood Shadow Sword King were not just Zhang Chen. Cleaners and police officers in the North District are also looking. Of course, for such a worthless corpse, they are only looking for it routinely, very perfunctory. Even if you don't find it, it doesn't matter.

They also posted a news item on TV, saying, "The body of the Blood Shadow Sword King has not been found." "No one cares.

The cruelty of reality lies not in the battle itself. It's also that people only win or lose by winning or losing. The so-called winner is king. Sometimes it's better to tie even with underhanded means than to lose. For example, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Guanzhang and the three of them fought against Lu Bu, and if they didn't lose, no one looked down on them. On the contrary, General Pan Feng was killed by someone alone, and he was extremely looked down upon. No one will think that Pan Feng's one-on-one heads-up is anything great. If Pan Feng and Bao Zhong, Zu Mao, and Yu Shi were added up at that time, they would fight Huaxiong together, and the enemy would retreat or draw. Even if the facts are very inferior, people will definitely not think that Pan Feng is garbage.

But Zhang Chen: They can't be indifferent. How the hell is this body gone, or has it been taken away? It's going to be fatal.

The floor room where the body was placed yesterday was on the first floor, but it was placed in a side hall. After all, no one likes to come in and go out and see a dead body all the time. So the corpse was placed in an inconspicuous corner.

The reason why Zhang Chen found out that it was gone. It was the afternoon of this day, and when I came down from upstairs, I accidentally glanced at it. He was very careful about the place where the body was put yesterday. He remembers it well. When I went upstairs yesterday, I could still see the feet of the corpse in the side hall. But this time, when he came down, he found that his feet were missing.

He was taken aback. When I went inside, not only were my feet gone, but also my body was gone. Not even the blood on the ground was gone......

It was raining lightly. With the cold air outside and the dark and dilapidated house. There are shades of black everywhere, and there is an indescribable sense of blackness and oppression. Zhang Chen was a calm person, and the empty place where the corpse was originally placed now looked like an animal's strange eyes. It is said that in danger, it is best not to move. So he didn't move, just scannying every corner of the room that could be seen.

The light is a bit dim and the shadows are heavy. If it's someone else. You may wonder if you're in the wrong place or if the body has been misplaced. But Zhang Chen didn't doubt it. He was 100% sure that he was in the wrong place. I didn't make a mistake.

The wind was strong, and the old-fashioned wooden windows were bare. Zhang Chen's hands were in his purse, and he felt extremely insecure.

He used his spiritual power to tell SΓΉ Xin Dong'er to come to his side. This girl always gives herself a little more security. Even in the most dangerous places, he was used to it.

Miao Xianxian came in with Xin Dong'er. It should be said that during this day, Xin Dong'er disguised herself very well. To a mature quiet gentle big sister. What has nothing to do with a person's strength is a person's character if it is good. For example, I care about you. Then even she has a lot of power. You'll also think of her as a big sister-like figure. She hid some of her bad tastes and cared about Miao Xianxian everywhere. Miao Xianxian is actually a bit old-fashioned. She always felt that some of her thoughts about Zhang Chen violated Xin Dong'er. So there's some guilt in it. It's also very friendly to her.

"The body is gone." Zhang Chen put his hands in his purse and said lightly. He originally hoped that only Xin Dong'er would come in alone. Because when something happens, he doesn't trust others. Although Miao Xianxian has always been good to him. But there is a difference with Xin Dong'er.

But by this time. Miao Xianxian also came in. He was not interested in avoiding it, and when he spoke, he looked at the slender Xin Dong'er and the petite Miao Xian behind her. The three of them stood tangled in this empty windowed room without glass in a lighting environment similar to that of the setting sun.

"The body is gone." It's a declarative sentence. Zhang Chen said this. It was he who wanted to hear what these two men had to say. For example, if Miao Xianxian has moved the corpse, or Xin Dong'er has moved. They will say. I took the body somewhere else.

But neither said such a thing. They were even amazed. Miao Xian's expression was basically shocked. People lie. But human pupils don't lie. For example, when a person lies, the pupils will constrict. Miao Xianxian didn't have this kind of reaction, she was really surprised.

"Why is it gone? You got it away? Miao Xian Xian turned around the room twice with her free hands, and the light outside the window hit her black shadow on the ground. And the place where she turned was the same place where the corpse had stayed yesterday.

Zhang Chen didn't move, he closed his eyes and frowned, "If I got it, do I need to ask you?" ”

"It's not me......," Xin Dong'er said beside her. Her reaction was the same as Zhang Chen's, very vigilant. In a sense, Zhang Chen often felt that she had a kind of beastly alertness. Zhang Chen definitely believed her. Even if she suddenly changed her sexual interest and began to devour the supernatural, Zhang Chen would not refuse. She didn't have to lie.

Miao Xianxian, "How come?" How did that disappear? ”

The place where the corpses had been placed on the ground was now blank. And that's not all. The corpse was bloody, but now it's gone.

"When I first came down, I noticed that something was wrong, so I came in and took a look. The body was found missing. Even the blood was gone. Zhang Chen described slowly. The wind in the cold rain blew the thatch outside the window like long hair.

Miao Xianxian looked at the ground carefully, although this girl was not very old. But to be sure, she is still relatively precocious. There is the rebellion of a precocious girl in her bones, and there are also some contradictory old-fashioned old-fashioned ideas.

"Was the body still there when you left yesterday?" Zhang Chen asked, his voice very low.

Miao Xianxian is quite obsessed with swordsmanship. At that time, after taking someone's sword book, I looked at it next to the corpse. I didn't go upstairs until it was dark. At this time, she walked up to Zhang Chen's side and leaned against the wall and said, "The corpse must have been there when I was reading the sword book here." When he left, the body was still there. The blood was all gone. There are black boils. I'm absolutely sure. ”

"So the word 'it' doesn't 'disappear' until you go upstairs. In other words, when everyone was eating and sleeping upstairs last night, this originally dead man left, and even licked the blood he left on the ground? Zhang Chen used a licking word because he really wondered why the blood had disappeared.

And Xin Dong'er also squatted down on the ground at this time to observe carefully. The light was not good, Zhang Chen asked softly, "Do you want a lamp?" "He does have a battery-powered flashlight in his space, as well as some energy-saving lights. There is also a small flashlight that is hand-pinched to generate electricity.

Xin Dong'er shook her head, she wasn't so much watching. It's better to smell it. After a while, she suddenly said, "...... He didn't go by himself, someone came......"

"Anyone?" Zhang Chen was a little surprised, "Didn't you notice it yesterday?" ”

Xin Dong'er's slender body was still lying on the ground at this time, she supported the ground with one hand, raised her head and said, "I was in the bathroom at the time......" Zhang Chen interrupted when she said this, "Got it." You're in the bathroom. He didn't want Miao Xianxian to know Xin Dong'er's secret.

Zhang Chen didn't know much about Xin Dong'er's state when she devoured zombies. But now it seems. When she devours, she probably can't detect her surroundings. At least he didn't believe that anything could escape Xin Dong'er's detection in a vigilant state. And if there really is such a thing that Xin Dong'er can't detect, it will be terrible.

"To put it this way. The person who took the body came after Miao Xianxian went upstairs and before Xin Dong'er came out ......of the bathroom. He was originally listening to Miao Xianxian talk about her life dream.

"Yes." Xin Dong'er's words indicate that she is also sure of her detection ability. Her ass looked cocked as she lay on the ground. Zhang Chen took a deep breath, Xin Dong'er was devouring zombies and didn't notice it. And Miao Xianxian and I sat on the second floor. This one who took it away. The two of us didn't even notice it. In a sense. This probably means that this guy who came to steal the corpse is very good at stealing and is extremely powerful.

The grass grows and the warbler flies. There was a wind blowing from the ground, which made people feel cold. Three people were still standing in the room. In fact, at this time, it doesn't seem to feel safe to stand there.

"Who do you think it is? Who would steal the corpse, or if there is any enemy? ”

Miao Xian spread her hands and said, "What enemies can I have?" There are many enemies of the Miao family. But there really isn't anyone who knows where I am. Moreover, the elders of the Miao family treated me as a deterrent figure. It's not going to make me fight with people lightly. Even more so after I got the ability. ”

"Normally, I don't have any enemies. Even if we had, we wouldn't have known we were here. ”

Zhang Chen pinched his chin with one hand at this time. Miao Xianxian asked him, "What about you?" I think you have a lot of enemies. ”

Zhang Chen shook his head, looked at the world full of wild grass in the cold rain outside the wooden window lattice, and said, "My enemies are almost all dead. Of course, people can't avoid whether they will offend anyone unintentionally. But I don't think I have inadvertently offended such a strong enemy. You know, I'm actually quite a low-key person. ”

Miao Xianxian asked at this time, "Do you think he can come quietly and get the body away, but he didn't touch us." What is the meaning? ”

Zhang Chen thought for a while and said, "This shows that he can sneak attack us." But he didn't. There are two possible things, one is that you don't want to do it now or you don't want to do it. The second is that he is not sure that he will kill us now. After all, there are three of us. And Zhang Chen leaned towards the latter. Because even if it's the first reason, it depends on the mood of the other party. There is nothing I can do but be vigilant.

Miao Xianxian said at this time, "If the other party doesn't want to kill us." Then we don't have to worry too much. ”

Xin Dong'er suddenly said at this time, "It's hostile ......" Her voice was very soft, and there was a feeling of echo in the empty and dark room.

"How do you know?"

Xin Dong'er closed her eyes and seemed to be feeling something, "I know......" The room was a little cold. Xin Dong'er, like Zhang Chen, has not moved since she stood up. It is a habit of self-protection in the face of danger.

"My enemy, in fact, there is still one ...... who is not dead," Zhang Chen said this, frowning, because he had forgotten an important object before, "It is the female spider who escaped yesterday." I wrenched her hands. Another stab. But it's not dead......"

All three were silent. This is a matter of strict zhΓ²ng. Zhang Chen originally planned to leave the city now and fly away. It's just to avoid getting caught up with these people. No one would be happy to provoke such a powerful force for no reason. But now the question is, if the other party has already found him. It's not something that can go far and fly high.

"I'm afraid that with this tracking ability, it can find us even to the ends of the earth. This female monster and what kind of mutated zombies will be around her cannot be measured by common sense. She had just been seriously injured and sent someone to track us down. is definitely a ruthless character who will be retribution, and if she doesn't die, I'm afraid I will never be at peace. Of course, these are just my guesses. Who exactly has been here is impossible to determine. ”

"What now?" Miao Xianxian asked, she was with Zhang Chen. It seems that he is also used to asking him about something. Zhang Chen didn't speak, she continued, "Let's live in another place." Then, how about we step up our vigilance? ”

Zhang Chen hesitated for a moment but shook his head, "They must have some way to track us, otherwise, it would be impossible to find us." It's the same to hide there. ”

"What then? Just waiting here? ”

Zhang Chen lowered his head and thought for a moment and said, "You can't leave the city now." He turned to Xin Dong'er and said, "That's right." Can you catch the corpse? ”

Miao Xianxian looked at Xin Dong'er like Zhang Chen when she heard this. At this time, she didn't know what Xin Dong'er was capable of. It's just that the longer I get along with her, the more I seem to feel that she is unfathomable.

After Xin Dong'er devoured the female sword master, she also had the ability to track. It's just not as complete.

Xin Dong'er whispered, "You can give it a try." But there is rain and the smell may be left very little......"

"It's better to take some initiative than to sit back and wait." Zhang Chen finally decided to chase after them, "The rain will cover up their traces, and it will also cover ours." ”

Xin Dong'er nodded in approval. The three of them came out of the room in unison. Outside, waist-deep withered yellow grass. The grass was almost covered with water.

"They withdrew that day. I don't think it's likely that we injured the Spider-Woman. Most likely, they had something else going on themselves. ”

Zhang Chen nodded. It's an open case. Nobody knows.

The group followed Xin Dong'er to find the direction. What surprised Zhang Chen was that the direction that Xin Dong'er was chasing after the taste was not the North District, but the Rich District. "I actually went to the city......

The three men stood in front of the wall at the end of the blocked stretch of road. It was cloudy, and the rain was light, like hair. The single wall of red bricks glows old red in the rain.

On the other side of the thin walls is the modern city. The sound of the TV on the Imperial Building, not far away, was also much louder. All sorts of speculations about the three heroes are still playing on TV.

"Is it past now?" Miao Xianxian asked. She has no problem with not being discovered. But she knew that Zhang Chen didn't want to be in the limelight. Zhang Chen thought for a while in the drizzle and said, "Let's wait until after five o'clock in the afternoon." Anyway, there's no rush anymore. ”

"Are you sure it's going in this direction?" He asked.

Xin Dong'er closed her eyes and said, "Within the scope of my detection, there will be no problem...... Trust me...... "The wind blew and her hair was blowing in the wind. "Those people just happened to show up at a time I couldn't detect...... They don't necessarily know that themselves......"

……

It was dark at four o'clock in the afternoon. The whole city, like a busy anthill, fell into a deep sleep as the night fell. Zhang Chen, Xin Dong'er and Miao Xianxian walked through the thin wall at the end of the closed street to three black shadows.

Outside is a traffic safety island with a sentry box next to it. But there was no one overnight.

Xin Dong'er said at this time, "You are much faster......

Zhang Chen didn't speak. He has now reached 52 in light skills. Light skills are different from other specializations such as swords or fists. Those who specialize in high can only subtly show xiΓ n out of the advantage. But light work is different, and the difference between the table xiΓ n is huge. The most basic thing is that there is a huge improvement in running speed and agility.

Zhang Chen has now reached a small level of transit. Fast speeds are normal.

"Where are you going?"

Xin Dong'er led the way in front, the rain was still falling, and she walked very slowly. Whoever stole the body, he always had to put it somewhere. In this area, no matter where it is placed, it won't take long to find it at Zhang Chen's speed. So he was always on the alert.

But what surprised Zhang Chen was that Xin Dong'er ran with them for almost half the night. Judging from the route taken by Xin Dong'er, that "person" seemed to have run away for most of the city with the corpse.

People who come to find people.

When Zhang Chen returned to Ruishan No. 9, it was already two o'clock in the middle of the night, it was raining lightly outside, it was very dark, and there was no one but the wind. There is a feeling of standing in the wilderness. After these few days of accidents. The whole city was in a state of excitement or amazement. But at this time they are all asleep. (To be continued......)
