Chapter 37: Death

Ahead, Liu Wu took Xiao Yue and followed this remote alley until the end, and after finding a simple house, the two went in directly.

Most of the houses in this alley are simple, and most of the people living here are living in poverty.

After Liu Fu and Satsuki entered the house, they walked out after a while.

From Xu Bai's point of view, Xiao Yue's face was much more relaxed.

"It's okay, Satsuki, your illness has been cured by me." Liu Wu said with a smile.

Xiao Yue's face regained her innocent smile and nodded vigorously: "Thank you, Sister Liu."

"It's okay, my sister will take you back." Catkins always have a smile.

"Hmm." Satsuki nodded obediently.

The two talked for a while and left the street.

Xu Bai didn't leave, staring at the humble house, thoughtful.

Go in and out once, and the problem is solved?

It's weird, especially in this house.

He thought about it, and when he was sure that the street was empty, he came to the house.

There is a lock on the door, which is a common padlock, and when you hold the door with your hand, you can push it open a crack.

Xu Bai did not use his hands, but pulled out the ghost head knife and pushed it open with the hilt.

The door was cracked open, and sunlight shone into the room.

The furnishings inside are simple, but they are quite complete.

When Xu Bai saw it for the first time, his eyes widened violently.

In the dim sunlight, there were several shadows flickering, and as the sunlight shone, the shadows appeared and disappeared.

It was three people, people hanging from the beams of the house.

- Middle-aged couple, Satsuki.

The three of them hung from the beams of the house, ropes around their necks, and their hands hung down.

The three pairs of eyes were round, and their tongues were spitting out of their mouths, and they had lost their breath of life.

There are large corpse spots on the skin, which proves that he has been dead for a long time.

"Dead?" Xu Bai was stunned, he thought of the Xiaoyue he had met before.

But why can you still see it?

Is it weird?

It's not that they are weird and irrational, they only know crazy killing, but why are they still setting up stalls on the street like living people?

Xu Bai couldn't figure it out, he hadn't been in this circle for long after all.

Although he has already taken many lives in a short period of time, he is actually a novice, and many theoretical things are not clear.

Seeing this scene now, he couldn't understand the reason.

But there is one thing...... It can be determined that Satsuki and Satsuki's parents are dead.

Xu Bai looked at the cheeks with protruding eyes, and thought of Xiaoyue's usual well-behaved appearance, and clenched the ghost head knife.

What does it feel like?

I can't tell.

Usually, Satsuki is innocent and innocent, and she is curious and innocent about anything around her.

The current Satsuki is completely different, and her face covered with corpse spots is full of terror.

Anyone who sees this will have a huge gap.

This is just a little girl of seven or eight years old, but she has come to a dead end in life.

Xu Bai thought he was a ruthless person, but when he saw the scene in front of him, he still felt uncomfortable.

After coming to this world, from Menghu Village to Shengxian County, he has experienced many battles, and every time he has driven out the enemy, and there is a lot of blood on his hands.

Only in front of that stall, eating the buns from the stall and drinking porridge, he felt happy during that time.

In the dark, the more you yearn for the light.

"Who is it?" Xu Bai took a deep breath.

A family of three committed suicide for no reason, which is a very strange thing.

People want to live, and if nothing happens, who will kill themselves?

Standing in place, Xu Bai pondered.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps in his ears, interrupting Xu Bai's train of thought.

Xu Bai looked at a nearby house, where the door was closed.

True Yuan Power circulated in his body, and he jumped high and landed on the roof, hiding his body through the roof.

A large group of people poured in from outside the alley, dressed in the clothes of the yamen.

The one who took the lead was the county order of the county, as well as the catkins, and the little moon who was led out by the catkins before was gone.

"Miss Liu, is this the one?" Zhang Xianling asked.

Catkins nodded.

The officials rushed in, opened the door, and carried out three bodies on stretchers, covered with white cloths.

Soon, the officials carried the corpse away, and only Liu Fu and Zhang Xian Ling were left in the alley.

"Lord Prefectural, I hope this matter will be enforced impartially." Willow catkins said.

"That's natural, I'll do it the best way." Zhang Xianling replied casually.

"The best way?" Liu Fu frowned, even though she was covered with a white veil, she could see that she was very unhappy.

"Most of the people in the academy have to take the merit test, and after you take the merit test, everything will be understood." Zhang Xian Ling said again.

In the Great Chu Kingdom, even women can gain fame.

The meaning of the emperor of the Great Chu State, regardless of gender, is a meritocracy.

Most of the people who study in the academy are also for the sake of gaining fame, and only a very few will stay in the academy.

"But......" Liu Wu still wanted to speak.

"I know that Qingyun Academy values you, and I also came out of the academy, although it is not Qingyun Academy, but this matter can write a letter to your teacher, and he will tell you everything." Zhang Xian ordered the exit to interrupt Liu Wu's words, and he didn't want to say more.

Seeing this scene, Liu Fu sighed.

She planned to go back first, and according to what Zhang County ordered to write a letter to her teacher, to see what the situation was.

"Let's leave first, in short, after two days, I will announce this matter, including the causes and consequences and the corresponding punishment." Zhang Xianling added.

The words have been said here, and Liu Wu has been thinking about Zhang Xianling's words.

The body had been carried away, and Zhang Xianling and Liu Wu had also left the alley.

At this time, Xu Bai jumped down from the roof and looked at the already empty room, his eyes gloomy.

He could hear it clearly from the roof just now.

From the conversation between these two people, it can be heard that Satsuki's death has another hidden meaning.

Let's not talk about why Xiaoyue became in that strange state, the hidden meaning of this is worth investigating.

"Two days later......" Xu Bai touched his chin.

He was going to wait another three days to see what exactly they would reveal.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai didn't stop in the alley and left directly.

……

Liufu.

After the catkins returned home, they were in a very bad mood, so they returned to their boudoir as soon as possible and took off the veil.

She sat in a chair, her white palms supporting her chin, her elbows resting on the table, as if thinking about something, her eyes glazed.

After a long while, he came to his senses, took out a piece of paper from a drawer, dipped a brush in ink, and wrote a letter.

After writing, he pulled out an iron cage from another cabinet, and in the iron cage was a carrier pigeon.

This carrier pigeon belongs to Qingyun Academy, and if there is any necessary situation, you can contact the academy through this method.

The contents of the letter were very short, and the catkins folded the letter, tied it to the pigeon's leg, and walked out the door.

"Plop Plop ......"

With a fluttering sound, the carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew away.

The catkins stared straight in the direction the carrier pigeon flew away, and their hands were clenched tightly.

After a long while, he let go of his hand and returned to his room.

Looking at the green smoke from the incense burner in the room, she took the book out of her sleeve and flipped to a certain page.

A burst of white light flickered from the book, followed by three rays falling to the ground.
