The line stopped.

Cao Li took a few errand officers, clamped the horse's belly, and went to the village to check the situation.

Taking advantage of this gap, Jiang Wujian looked at the strange situation at the entrance of the village.

The locust trees had died, and there was not a single leaf on the branches, and on the trunks of these trees were twine ropes, and at the other end of the ropes hung the corpses of three giants with different degrees of decay.

Each of the three corpses had a hole in their chest, which was presumably their hearts gouged out.

The corpses shook with a slight creak as a gust of cold wind swept through.

Jiang Wuji's vision blurred without warning, and then his brain felt dizzy, and his body began to burn.

"Damn, how do you pick a fever at this time?"

The fever that could not be cured recurred, but Jiang Wuxi gritted his teeth and carried it hard.

Not long after, Cao Li and the others returned, and at the same time, a group of villagers rushed to the entrance of the village, kneeling and bowing to Jiang Wuji's carriage.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Wujian couldn't help frowning.

Why do the people of this world kneel down at every turn?

Cao Li got off his horse and came to the carriage of the main book, and said, "My lord, something strange happened in Shangfeng Village. ”

"What's the matter? What's weird? Master Qiu walked out of the carriage and frowned at the word "Chuan".

Cao Li: "Three people in the village have died recently, and their hearts have been gouged out. ”

"What, what?!" Master Qiu's face turned pale, and he felt that his trip was not easy.

"Could it be that it's evil again?" Master Qiu asked in a low voice.

Cao Li glanced at the villagers kneeling at the entrance of the village and said, "I don't know if it's small, but the villagers say that there is a cat demon to do it." ”

"Let's go, don't spend the night in this village tonight, this world doesn't make people stable." Master Qiu flicked his sleeves and wanted to return to the car.

At this time, Cao Li said: "My lord, it's getting late, we can't catch up with much, this radius is all barren fields, there is no shelter from the wind and rain, if there is really a cat demon...... I think it's safer to stay in the village. ”

"This ......"

Master Qiu didn't know how to make a choice for a while, so he looked at Jiang Wuji, who was standing outside the carriage.

"Little Daoye, what do you think?" Master Qiu asked with a flattering face.

Jiang Wuji: "The master bookkeeper will do it, I don't care." ”

The corners of Master Qiu's mouth twitched, and he said, "Little Daoist, are you still angry......

"No, why am I angry with you?"

"Little Daoye, there was no one in the eyes of this official before, and I neglected you, and I hope that Lord Xiaodao will not remember the villain."

"......" Jiang Wujian was speechless for a while.

is worthy of being an official, seeing the wind and making the rudder, turning his face is faster than turning a book.

Jiang Wujian looked at the three corpses again, and said dizzily, "Let's go into the village for the night." ”

"Okay!"

The master bookkeeper waved his hand, "Enter the village!" ”

Seeing the procession coming towards the village, the villagers who were kneeling at the entrance of the village couldn't help but smile on their faces.

The next trivial matter, Jiang Wujian did not participate.

After settling Xiaoyu, the main bookkeeper, Cao Li, the village chief, and two villagers had been waiting in the lobby for a long time.

If it weren't for the messenger who called him over again and again to discuss the matter of the cat demon, Jiang Wuji, who had a recurrence of fever, would definitely not care.

Seeing Jiang Wujian coming, several people hurriedly got up and saluted, and let Jiang Wuxi sit on the main seat.

Jiang Wuxi looked at the gray-haired village chief and said, "Let's talk about it." ”

"Ouch, little Daoist, you don't know something."

The village chief's tone was like that of an old aunt at the entrance of the vegetable market, he kept gesturing with his hands, and said: "A Taoist chief came to our village the month before last and gave each of us a pill, and the plague matter was solved, but who would have thought that a few days after the Taoist chief left, a bunch of cat corpses suddenly appeared outside the village!" ”

"A bunch of cat corpses?" Jiang Wuxi frowned.

The village chief slapped his thigh, "Yes, yes!" Those cat corpses, skinned and boneless, dead without a whole corpse, can be scary. ”

"But there are so many cat corpses, and it can't be done if you don't deal with them, so I asked everyone to bury those cat corpses under the locust tree at the entrance of our village, and as a result, the hundred-year-old locust tree in our village actually died!"

Jiang Wuji's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and Cao Li and Master Qiu's faces were already a little pale.

"Go on." Jiang Wujian said.

The village chief took a sip of tea and said in a calm voice: "Not long after the locust tree died, people began to die...... The first to die was my brother, who was kind, loyal and honest, but he ......."

The village chief choked up and couldn't continue, when a villager standing behind the village chief said: "When we found out, Li Laohan had already been hung under the locust tree, and his heart had been gouged out. ”

The village chief hid his face and wept, and after a while he continued: "Seven days after my brother's death, another man was hung under the locust tree, and his heart was also gouged out. ”

"And then for another seven days, there were corpses again!"

"This is the cat demon, the cat corpse under the locust tree has become an evil spirit, and it eats people's hearts!"

Cat corpse, digging hearts, with an interval of seven days. Jiang Wujian grasped three key points.

At the beginning, Zhang Fugui sent a sacrifice to the plague god, and it was also a sacrifice every seven days......

No, this is not a county anymore, what does it have to do with sending sacrifices to the plague god, the demon is stunned.

Jiang Wuji rubbed his eyebrows and asked, "According to what you say, this cat demon will kill one person in seven days, so when is the next time?" ”

The village chief swallowed his saliva, looked at Jiang Wuji, and then looked at Cao Li and Master Qiu, and couldn't hold back a fart for a long time.

But the answer is already written on the face.

Jiang Wujian muttered, "It's ...... tonight"

Master Qiu was furious, smashed the teacup on the ground with a bang, and scolded: "Okay! All right! You old horseman, you dare to harm your own official! Cao Li! Take this fang! ”

The village chief knelt on the ground with a puff and cried: "My lord's life, my lord's life!" I, I really can't help it, none of the men sent to the county have come back, if this continues, our Dafeng Village, our Dafeng Village will really be finished! ”

It's right for the cat demon to beg for help, but knowing that today is the day when the cat demon kills people, he deliberately concealed it in advance, so it's no wonder that Master Qiu will be furious.

When the general kicked the master book of Qiu at the village chief, suddenly an obese man rushed out and pushed the master book away!

It's a year old, but the voice is like an unenlightened child.

"Don't kill my daddy! Don't kill my daddy! Kill you! Kill you! ”

The man was dead in front of the village chief, with a look of fear and anger on his face.

"Son, our lives are hard...... the village chief hugged his son, tears and hoarseness.

At this time, the other two villagers also knelt down one after another to plead for the village chief.

The son of the village chief is a mentally handicapped ...... Jiang Wuxi was slightly surprised.

However, this not only did not make Master Qiu angry, but added fuel to the fire, "Where did you come from, you dare to push this official!" Dare to speak out! Cao Li! What are you still doing in a daze! ”

A trace of struggle flashed in Cao Li's eyes, and just as he was about to make a move, a cat meow suddenly came from outside the house!

Everyone looked in the direction from which the voice came.

I saw that on the opposite beam, a black cat appeared at some point.

The black cat squatted, a pair of golden vertical eyes staring straight at everyone in the hall.

"Cat, cat demon! Cat Demon !! ”
