Chapter 5: Exquisite Blood (1)

The jade step is white dew, and the night invades Luo socks for a long time.

But under the crystal curtain, looking at the autumn moon.

This poem is from Li Bai's Jade Rank Grievance, which was originally a palace grievance poem, but it has become extraordinary because of a news that has recently circulated in Cold City.

"Hey, haven't you heard, the blood that circulated a few days ago killed people again last night, and the victim was miserable, his nose was cut off, and both eyes were gouged out."

"But isn't it, the siren rang non-stop early this morning, it turns out that the demon has done evil again, and if this demon is not eliminated for a day, the people of the cold city will not be at peace."

Most of the pedestrians on the street were discussing this matter, Yang Yang came to Cold City for the first time, and after listening to what the pedestrians said, he knew that this time the task was to find and get rid of Blood Linglong.

The background of this era is like the Republic of China period, but it is different, and it looks like a world in an alternate era.

Most of the people of this era wore robes and shoulders, but Yang Yang's dress was different, which was very conspicuous on the street. Yang Yang didn't care about the strange gazes of others, and now he was trying to find a way to find Blood Linglong as soon as possible.

At this time, a group of policemen were hurriedly running in one direction, Yang Yang's eyes rolled and immediately followed.

Secretly followed this group of policemen to a courtyard, and those who could build another courtyard were rich people, and there were many bodyguards in front of the door to guard the home. But even with such a strong guard, the owner of this annex was killed, and it was a tragic death. Eyes and noses were gouged out.

Because it was heavily guarded, no one could get in except the police. Yang Yang waited outside for a long time before he saw a group of policemen walking out carrying the body.

Yang Yang glanced at the corpse, because the corpse's head was covered with a white cloth. I can't see what it looks like. But it was stained with blood.

Yang Yang pondered. Walked up to a bodyguard and tried to ask about it, but was blown away by someone.

In this way, Yang Yang ate a nose of ash, and he didn't find any clues.

The worst thing is that he doesn't have any money on him now, so the first thing to do now is to make money and have the ability to survive in this world.

There is a board on the street with a job posting, and many people are looking for their favorite job in front of it.

Look at these job postings. Discover that there are all kinds of jobs available. Digging dung, cleaning the manor, tidying up the makeup for Miss Qianjin, carrying work, etc., but there is no job suitable for Yang Yang.

Dressing up Miss Qianjin, he can't do it as a big man. Carrying the work, his body is too thin, cleaning the manor He went to the manor owner's house, found that the manor was too big, and the manor owner recruited a cleaning staff. He simply couldn't hold on.

In the end, there is only one manure that is the lightest, but too dirty.

In this way, Yang Yang looked for a job for half a day. Not a single capable one.

Yang Yang was now wandering aimlessly on the street like an idle cloud and wild crane, and found an old beggar setting a bowl on the side of the street, so he squatted in front of the old beggar and asked, "Senior, what do you think of my qualifications, can I join the beggar gang?" ”

The old beggar was a mute, and he didn't know if he understood what Yang Yang said, so he smiled and pointed to his iron rice bowl, and then took out a banknote from it and gave it to Yang Yang.

Yang Yang was so moved that he was about to cry bitterly, how could he bear to accept the money that the old beggar had worked so hard to get? So he took the banknote, went to the nearby grocery store and bought a rice bowl, came back and sat down against the old beggar, grinned at the old beggar, and said, "I don't want to owe favors to others, and when I have enough money, I will return the money I owe you." ”

The old beggar snorted and couldn't speak, glaring at Yang Yang with angry eyes, looking so angry.

Yang Yang scratched his head, thought for a while, and suddenly shouted, "Are you afraid that I will rob you of your job?" ”

The old beggar nodded vigorously.

Yang Yang smiled, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, uncle, I won't rob you of your job." ”

As he was talking, Yang Yang took off his coat and rolled on the ground, his whole body dirty. After doing this, he knelt on the ground, watched the pedestrians walk around, and shouted with a crying voice: "Are there any kind-hearted people, my grandfather has a disease and has no money for treatment, begging the well-wishers to give him life-saving money, the little one is grateful!" ”

Yang Yang knelt here and cried and shouted, but there was no kind-hearted person who gave money.

But the old beggar did nothing on the side, but a few people gave him money.

Yang Yang was still very puzzled at first, he observed for a while, and found that there were beggars not far from this street, but they were all begging alone, and there was no group registration.

Finding this, Yang Yang tried to distance himself from the old beggar, kneeling on the ground and not shouting, and there were really some people who gave him money.

Yang Yang wondered, why did there be no one to give alms when multiple beggars were together?

At this time, another beggar who was not far from him came over and said to Yang Yang: "I see that you are a newcomer, our beggar gang has a rule, when begging, you have always fought alone, which is also a well-known thing in Hancheng." And some beggars from other places don't understand the rules of the local beggar gang and will form groups to beg, so no one gives them money. ”

"I'll go, ask for a meal and this rule?" Yang Yang looked surprised.

The beggar smiled and said, "Just now I saw that Old Man Huang gave you apprenticeship money, as a new beggar gang disciple in Hancheng, you have to return this apprenticeship money to him twice, so that you can truly join the local beggar gang organization." Otherwise, you'll be dead on the streets tonight, don't blame me for not warning you. ”

With that, the beggar returned to his place of begging.

"Damn, the black-society-society, I feel like I'm in a pyramid marketing organization." Yang Yang regretted a little in his heart, he knew that there were so many unspoken rules for being a beggar, so it was better to be a dung digger.

Listening to the beggar's words just now, Yang Yang looked at the money in his bowl, took out two pieces of the same money that the old beggar gave him just now, and returned the two pieces of money to the old beggar.

The old beggar smiled this time and patted Yang on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.

In the evening, Yang Yang bought a few steamed buns with the money he begged to eat.

When he had filled his stomach, he went back to the place where he was begging, and prepared to use the sky as a bed and the earth as a bed, and lay down on the street to sleep. And the weather here is also warm.

He was lying on the side of the street ready to sleep, but just as he was about to fall asleep, he was kicked awake.

Yang Yang stood up angrily and found that it was the old beggar who kicked him, and the beggar who was still standing next to the old beggar talking to him.

The old beggar pointed to the beggar beside him, and actually spoke: "Boy, this is your senior brother Lin Zi, and I am your master Huang Laoqi." Seeing that you are lazy and a beggar's material, you can follow me in the future. ”

Yang Yang looked at the old beggar in surprise and said, "Aren't you dumb?" ”

"Do you think I look like a mute?" The old beggar Huang Laoqi smiled, kicked Yang Yang again, and walked away with his shoulder.

Yang Yang looked back at his position and shouted, "I haven't taken my bowl yet!" ”

"No one can steal your broken bowl, now follow the master to get down to business." Huang Laoqi kicked Yang Yang again, and Yang Yang covered his ass and cried bitterly.

―――――――――――――

On a dark and windy night, Yang Yang followed Huang Laoqi and Lin Zi to quietly sneak into an old house.

Huang Laoqi and Lin Zi walked in front, and Yang Yang walked behind the two, he was now in a dilemma, because Huang Laoqi and Lin Zi were both holding murder weapons in their hands, and they looked like they were here to commit murder.

With a creak, the door of the old house was gently pushed open, and out of it came a bewitching woman, dressed in flowers, walking with a small waist twisting around, not a serious woman at first glance.

Seeing the woman walk out, Lin Zi took the lead in rushing over, and before the woman could react, Lin Zi took out the dagger in his hand, and cut the woman's throat with a knife as fast as lightning, and then quickly stretched out his hand to cover the woman's mouth, and the woman struggled for a while before dying.

When the woman died, Huang Laoqi came over, and he picked up the iron rod in his hand and smashed it heavily on the woman's head a few times, and the head was deformed.

Yang Yang was shocked when he saw it in the back, he thought to himself, who is this person? This is even more terrifying than a demon, this time it's a den of thieves!

At this moment, a drunken man shouted loudly from the house, and a figure staggered out of it.

Seeing this drunk, Huang Laoqi and Lin Zi greeted the drunk together, and beat the drunk with the murder weapon in their hands, beating him all over his body, but he was not killed.

Because this person was so drunk, he didn't seem to even feel the pain, and he lay down next to the woman who had just been beaten to death, and he kept muttering Feng Ayun in his mouth, which sounded like a woman's name. Soon after, she fell asleep next to the female corpse.

Huang Laoqi and Lin Zi sneered at the same time, glanced back at Yang Yang, and left here.

Before leaving, Yang Yang discovered a detail, seeing Huang Laoqi drop a note from his arms and leave it next to the female corpse, and he didn't know if it was intentional.

After killing people, Huang Laoqi and Lin Zi hid the murder weapons in their clothes, and Yang Yang followed behind the two murderous demons in fear, not daring to speak.

After walking for a long time, the three of them came to a mountain forest outside the city.

There are many beggars living in this forest, these beggars look very simple, and when they see Huang Laoqi coming back, they all bow to him and say hello.

It seems that Huang Laoqi is the boss here.

Yang Yang didn't dare to speak all the way, and finally couldn't bear it anymore at this time, so he came over and asked, "Are the bloody murders that people say are all your ghosts?" ”

Huang Laoqi looked back at Yang Yang, his black eyes were like hell fires, deep and terrifying. He suddenly smiled weirdly, and transformed into a woman in red.

She smiled back, blinked her eyes, looked at the stunned Yang Yang, made a cold voice, and said, "That's right, I am the legendary blood Linglong, are you afraid?" (To be continued.) )
