Chapter 78: The richest man's daughter dies tragically
Qingzhou.
Xiao Wuxin, who was disguised as an ordinary person, was eating a meal in the tavern when he suddenly heard someone at the table whispering.
"Did you hear that? Last night, Sun Yuanwai was drunk dry by a man who looked like a monster, and his death was miserable. ”
"I heard about it, but it's a pity that Sun Yuanwai is a well-known good person, why did he end up like this?"
At this time, a strong man at the next table also joined in the excitement and said: "The death of Zhufeng County next door is exactly the same as that of Sun Yuanwai, and when it was discovered, the monster was still drinking blood." ”
The strong man's words have attracted the attention of many people, and curiosity is always the biggest driving force for human curiosity.
"Did you notice what the monster looks like?"
"According to those who found it, the monster was covered in hair, with scarlet eyes, two protruding fangs, and was no different in size from a human." The strong man struggled to describe it in the words he knew.
Xiao Wuxinquan on the side listened to a joke and played with the cup in his hand just as he was about to leave.
casually glanced out the window, and the whole person stood up immediately, frightening the people around him.
"Xiao Yantong, King of Qi?"
Didn't he die in Suzhou City, Yu Ronghuadao was stoned to death, how could he appear in Qingzhou?! Could it be that I am dazzled?
If Xiao Yantong returned to Jinling, then the news that he had set up an ambush in Suzhou to bury 100,000 allied troops would not be able to hide, and Emperor Zhou would be furious and would order his own execution.
And right now, the first thing Xiao Wuxin wants to figure out is why King Qi came back from the dead.
Throwing the money on the table, Xiao Wuxin immediately followed.
......
Along the way, Xiao Wuxin followed him out of the city, and Xiao Yantong came to the dense forest in the suburbs, but soon he disappeared without a trace.
When he came to the place where he disappeared, Xiao Wuxin explored that there was no secret passage or anything like that around, only a towering ancient tree, but why did a big living person disappear?!
A series of questions came to mind.
Xiao Wuxin circled around the ancient tree, and after not finding the cat tired, he was about to leave.
But at this time, a drop of water fell from the tree and just landed on Xiao Wuxin's face.
Raise your head sharply.
saw Xiao Yantong hanging upside down on a branch, his palms turned into sharp claws, his scarlet eyes, his long fangs were exposed, and the drop of water was his saliva.
Xiao Yantong stared at Xiao Wuxin deadly, like a hungry tiger seeing its prey.
At that moment, Xiao Wuxin broke out in a cold sweat, and said in his heart: "Is this a human or a ghost?" ”
Suddenly, Xiao Yantong let out a beast-like cry, and instantly launched an attack on Xiao Wuxin.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiao Wuxin quickly dodged.
Boom!
Xiao Yantong pounced and slammed into the ground, producing a violent explosion.
With a blow in the air, Xiao Yantong locked on Xiao Wuxin again, he landed on all fours, obviously looking like a human, but he ran like a gibbon.
He was fast, and the two chased through the forest.
In the end, Xiao Wuxin used a dense vine in the forest to bind Xiao Yantong in countless vines.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Wuxin ran away.
After breaking free, Xiao Yantong pounded the ground angrily, like remorse that the prey in his hand had been run away.
Then, there were screams of pain in the dense forest.
When the laughter died down, more than a dozen jackals, tigers and leopards were bitten and their throats were cut off, and the blood was drunk.
......
Back in the city, Xiao Wuxin was shocked, and he was full of doubts about what Xiao Yantong had become, but instead of solving the confusion in his heart, he almost put his life into it.
I found an inn and stayed overnight.
The next day, another tragedy occurred in the city, the daughter of the richest man in Qingzhou died, the death was exactly the same as that of Sun Yuanwai, and her throat was bitten off.
It's just that the daughter of the richest man is different from Sun Yuanwai in that the blood was not drunk, but dried.
Recently, due to the news that Sun Yuanwai was killed by a monster, people are panicking, and everyone is in danger.
The prefect of Qingzhou ordered the entire city to search for monsters so that no one would be killed or injured.
However, for several days, there was no progress in the case.
The government also cast a rat trap, and the thieves caught a lot, but they were all thieves who stole chickens and dogs, and they never even killed pigs, let alone killed people.
The government couldn't count on it, and the richest man in Qingzhou didn't want his daughter to die tragically, so he posted a reward notice, as long as he caught the murderer of his daughter, a reward of 1,000 taels was offered.
What is the concept of a thousand taels?
Ordinary people can't earn more than one hundred taels in a lifetime, which is equal to the money that ordinary people can earn in ten lifetimes.
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and the day after the notice was posted, the threshold of the richest man's house was trampled on.
Another three days have passed, and there is still no progress in the case, but there are many scammers who cheat and cheat in the name of solving the case, which makes the richest man extremely annoyed.
I died of my daughter, and there were even liars who deceived me, and I was looking for death.
After those scammers were beaten out with sticks, Xiao Wuxin traveled at the door of the richest man with a notice, and the scammers glanced at him and said disdainfully: "Cut!" Another one who cheats to eat and drink. ”
Another liar said: "Brother, you are too late, the wronged man will not believe you anymore, go, don't be beaten up like us." ”
Several crooks limped away with each other's arms.
Xiao Wuxin was silent, and came to the richest man's house, and after being reported, the richest man was furious when he heard it: "Let him go!" ”
The servant hurriedly said, "Master, that person asked me to show you something." ”
As he spoke, he took it out.
After seeing it, the richest man's face changed greatly, and he immediately stood up and hurriedly asked, "Where are the people?" Come in, please. ”
Isn't it just an ordinary piece of silk? As for making the lord shocked.
Seeing that the next person was slow to move, the richest man scolded: "You TM deaf, invite him in." ”
This time, the subordinates didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly invited Xiao Wuxin to the mansion.
