Chapter 3: Demons
In the early morning, the orange-yellow sunlight shone on Li Xuan's face through the window.
In his sleep, he frowned, stretched out his right hand to block the sun, and his eyelids slowly opened.
"By the way, I have something to do this morning."
Li Xuan rolled over and got up from the bed, overcoming his attachment to the quilt with great perseverance.
I have to go to last night's yard to investigate the situation this morning, and maybe I can learn about the demon beast in advance.
Ho~phew~
Spit out the last mouthwash and wipe his face with a handkerchief on the side.
Li Xuan was ready to go out, carrying the only weapon in the family, the pig-killing knife.
In this dangerous world, it's better to be careful when you're out and about.
The knife was handed down from the ancestors of the predecessor, it was hard and sharp, and I don't know how many pigs' souls were under the blade.
It is said to be a pig-killing knife, but its shape is more like the shape of a Tang knife, and the whole body is black, and I don't know where to find it.
Click~
Closing the door, he headed out for the street.
"Brother Xuan, come here, I have something to tell you."
A middle-aged woman saw Li Xuan go out, with a nervous look on her face, and beckoned to him mysteriously to let him pass.
"Ah, Aunt Zhang, did you have something to do with me early in the morning?"
Li Xuan replied with a smile and walked in the direction of the middle-aged woman.
This is Aunt Zhang, who lives nearby, is upright and bold, is a rare and kind person, and secretly helped her predecessor several times after her father's death.
"I'm telling you, don't spread the word."
"Recently, there has been a plague in this city, and this morning I went out to buy groceries, and I saw a patrol carrying two sacks."
"I heard that it contains the corpses of two gangsters, Zhang Ergou and Wang Lezi, who love to wander around here."
Aunt Zhang said matter-of-factly: "I heard that these two people have been infected for several days, and they are all white spots. ”
"I didn't expect that two living people would be gone if they said no."
Speaking of which, Aunt Zhang also has some injuries.
What, they contracted the plague, but wasn't it fine last night, and today it's gone.
Li Xuan was shocked, although there are all kinds of magical spells in this world, but the medical technology of the low-level civilians is similar to that of the ancient times in the previous life, and if one is not careful, the whole city will die if they encounter the plague.
"So, Brother Xuan, you should be careful recently, you can go to the City God Temple to worship, or find a doctor to have a look."
Finally, Aunt Zhang said a few words of warning and turned to leave.
When Aunt Zhang left, Li Xuan looked around, and after finding that there was no one, he slowly walked to the room that was ready to be explored.
He always felt that last night's incident might have something to do with the plague that Aunt Zhang said.
Gently pushing open the wooden door, the room was in chaos, the furniture was covered with dust, and the air smelled of rotting wood.
Walking in the messy wooden house, Li Xuan carefully rummaged through the debris on the ground, and some scratches and traces of fighting were still there.
But he as a social animal can't deduce any useful information from it.
Let's take a look at the small courtyard inside, where the patrol soldiers fired their arrows last night, and there should be clues.
Li Xuan clapped his hands, brushed the dust off his body, and made a decision.
The back said that it was a yard, but it was actually a large open space, and the soil in several places was obviously freshly turned.
Sure enough, there was a problem, looking at the white soil in front of him, a foul smell emanated, and Li Xuan nodded with satisfaction.
This should have been soaked in the blood of an unknown demon beast last night, and it matched Aunt Zhang's information.
Walking out of the house, the morning sun was still dazzling, and Li Xuan stretched his waist.
Go to Zhang Ergou and Wang Lezi's house to have a look, maybe you will find something.
What's more, after the dirt turned out, the fishing rod in his mind moved slightly, and the energy representing the number of times jumped up a little.
As for the gangsters who collect debts, sooner or later they will have to settle accounts with them.
Along the way, everyone was talking about the plague, and about the epidemic, people died from it in a few months, but not many people cared.
In this precarious world, it is normal for a few people to die.
This epidemic is really unusual, why all the news is coming from patrol soldiers.
And the bodies of the dead were all collected by the patrol, and no one saw them.
And last night's monster, the epidemic won't be what it brings.
After crossing a few streets, Li Xuan arrived near Zhang Ergou's house.
As a gangster, Zhang Ergou has always been a drunken and drunk life.
Therefore, his house is simple and dilapidated, and he can barely say that he can live in it.
"What's the matter with these soldiers, haven't they already been transported away?"
Looking at the patrolmen patrolling in front of the door, Li Xuan was puzzled.
He wanted to get closer, bypassing the soldiers at the front gate and coming to the back door.
Taking advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention, a runner rushed in with two clicks on the wall.
With a click, your feet hit the ground. He glanced around, it was a very normal courtyard, the same inside and out, still dilapidated.
However, Li Xuan felt a greasy feeling, as if there was a layer of oil on the surrounding ground walls.
Bending down, the palm of the hand is in contact with the ground, and it is a rough slate feeling, and there is no problem.
He pried open the back door of the house, and while the soldiers outside did not enter, he searched the house inside and out.
Nothing was found.
However, to his surprise, the fishing rod in his mind trembled slightly, and the energy bar continued to rise, and it was full in a short time.
The energy bar is still rising, but the speed has slowed down, and by about a fifth of the time, it stops rising.
As the energy was absorbed, Li Xuanneng realized that the greasy feeling around him was fading until it disappeared completely.
[Tai Sui Child: A juvenile differentiated from Tai Sui, often parasitic in the body of flesh and blood creatures, feeding on the host's essence]
[Currently collecting the energy needed for evolution for the mother]
[Weaknesses: Fear of fire, fear of masculinity]
[Dead, Scattered Source Power Absorption Completed]
Seeing this, he left the courtyard and rushed to Wang Lezi's house, no matter what he was, he absorbed the energy first.
In the same way, Wang Lezi's family also provided him with a number of fishing times.
When he came to a teahouse, Li Xuan sat down by the window on the second floor, where he could see Zhang Ergou's house not far away.
Patrol soldiers stood guard at the door and showed no signs of entering.
It didn't seem like anyone had noticed me going in yet, and his fingers tapped lightly on the table, contemplating the current situation.
This plague should have been caused by that Tai Sui, who separated the offspring to secretly harm people and provide energy for its own evolution.
It's just not clear if the government knows about it.
Forget it, go home, or improve yourself first.
Host: Li Xuan
Talents: None
Constitution: None
Work: None
Method: Haw Par Punch
Number of fishing: two
This is his current attribute, judging from the classification of Haw Par Powerful Fist, Fa should refer to combat skills, and the means of fighting against people.
And gong is the foundation for cultivating oneself and enhancing one's strength.
Gong and Fa are like the relationship between the trunk and branches of a tree.
With a flick of the fishing rod, Li Xuan went on his second angle.
