Taiping Town, it is the cool autumn season, the autumn wind is bleak and the leaves are withering, and there are people in the courtyard of Ningfu who die and live, and they are born silently, and they die loudly and loudly.

On that day, blood poured out of the house basin after basin, and all the blood-stained bedding was burned, and the midwife and maid were suffocated to death by the big man covering their mouths and noses, and the corpses were wrapped in straw mats, and someone was sent to find a place to deal with them.

Mama trembled and knelt on the ground, her eyes closed, her hands stiffly holding a red cloth scarf, the cloth wrapped in a newborn baby, her skin was wrinkled, her face was dark and blue due to dystocia and lack of oxygen, she did not open her eyes and did not cry, if it were not for the almost invisible ups and downs of her chest to show that he was still alive, no different from a dead man.

At night, the four porters carried the pitch-black coffin from the back door of Ningfu sneakily, and the old man instructed him to find the ground and bury it in the mountains outside Taiping Town.

In the dim night, the coffin had just entered the mountain, but the four porters stopped by a fast-flowing river, the coffin fell to the ground with a "bang", the heavy coffin lid was pushed open by the four people, and the body of the woman inside was stained with blood, only a white cloth was covered with the naked corpse, and there were a lot of gold and silver treasures around the body.

The man with a wide mouth and thick eyebrows lay on the edge of the coffin and took a breath, "The master is too ruthless, and he doesn't leave a decent person when he dies." ”

Someone laughed: "It's not right, anyway, the master doesn't care about people, we worked hard to send her up the mountain, and it won't matter if you get some hard money." ”

As he spoke, he folded his hands and bowed to the pale female corpse in the coffin, and said something in his mouth, "There is a debtor and a debtor, we are just making a living, don't come to me, you want to find the wrongdoer who killed you." ”

The other kicked a stone on the ground in a hurry, and the stone fell into the river with a clatter, and was swept away by the rushing water.

"Hurry up, it's windy here, and I can't calm my heart."

"Eh, I don't think it's right too, hurry up."

Several people leaned into the coffin, their eyes widened, and their eyes were full of only glittering gold and jewelry, and they couldn't help but swallow their spit, and their greed was endless.

Within a quarter of an hour, the empty black bag had become bulging, and blood had leached out of the black cloth bag, revealing a large expanse of deeper red ink.

The four porters dragged the heavy black cloth bag down the mountain, and their steps were brisk, dragging out long blood-colored traces into the fishy pine soil, and the smell of the earth was covered by the stench of blood.

In the middle of the night, everything in the mountains and forests was silent, and the birds were silent.

The coffin by the river was gone, only the traces of the heavy coffin pressed out, and there was a vague trail of dragging, all the way to the rapids.

In the turbulent river, a white cloth suddenly floated to the surface, and the white cloth fluttered on the surface of the river, approaching the river bank little by little.

The bleak moonlight poured down, dripping on the black stone in the forest, falling into the shadow of the tree, flowing into the rushing river water through the river bank, the moonlight on the rippling river surface, the full moon in the water was broken by the swimming white cloth, the river bank suddenly climbed on a blue and white hand, the moonlight spread on it, there was no blood.

The pale ghost-like hand grasped the weeds on the shore, the phalanges flexed, and then the red-striped woman, covered with only a white cloth, climbed up the riverbank, lay on her back on the wet riverbank, her chest rose and fell rapidly, her hands collapsed weakly at her sides, and the smell of the earth mixed with the blood gas penetrated into the tip of her nose, lingering.

Her eyes were like paint, reflecting the full moon hanging high in the sky, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she was in the coffin, the lid of the coffin was half closed, and the icy river water poured into the coffin through the cracks, and before she could think about what had happened, she was submerged by the river.

I held my breath until the river in the coffin was full, and it took a lot of effort to push open the heavy coffin lid and swim to the riverbank, Zhang Zheng was so tired that he had nothing to say.

After relieving for half an hour, Zhang Zheng barely regained some strength, his eyes fell on the thin arm raised in front of him, his skin was pale and the gray of a dead person, and there was a scar on his wrist.

It's not her body.

What's going on?

Zhang Zheng recalled the last scene of entering Taiping Town, a few lines of small words with the mission written on them cracked and melted into a cloud of darkness, a huge gravitational force came from the darkness, and he was swallowed by the black hole without a trace of resistance, and he was already in a coffin when he woke up.

Could it be that this is the assessment of Taiping Town?

Zhang Zheng looked around at the surrounding dark mountains and forests, and denied this conjecture, the assessment task mentioned in small characters is to successfully leave Taiping Town, and the appearance of the wilderness here is not like Taiping Town!

Since she is already outside Taiping Town, the assessment task must not be the Taiping Town that Xiao Zi said.

So what could have caused such a vision?

Zhang Zheng inexplicably remembered the crockpot that was used to hold the corpse of the ghost doll, could it be that the problem of the crockpot caused this scene?

If that's the case, she'd rather spend a little more time looking for a jar than take advantage of it!

The cold night of late autumn sent gusts of cool breeze, and the soaked white cloth was wrapped around his body, so cold that Zhang Zheng's teeth trembled.

This body limited her divine sense, her spiritual power and physical strength were all gone, and she was now an ordinary mortal, or worse than a mortal body.

Zhang Zheng stood up and looked at the newly unfamiliar body, since he woke up in the coffin, it was obvious that the person was dead, from head to toe, the complexion was pale and faintly brownish, and he sank into a pit after pressing hard, and it took a long time to recover.

In addition, Zhang Zheng also found several purple-red corpse spots of different sizes on her body, she hurriedly went to the river, and barely saw that her face was normal by the moonlight, and there were no corpse spots.

The corpse was already dead, Zhang Zheng took the initiative to stop his subconscious breathing movements, and there really would be no suffocation and discomfort, and she was holding her breath in the water.

After some examination, Zhang Zheng preliminarily concluded that the body was due to childbirth, and there were still a few dried blood stains on the lower body, which were severely torn.

With a wet white cloth tightly wrapped around his naked body, Zhang Zheng hurried down the mountain.

Her appearance now is too scary, and it must not work to find someone to borrow clothes during the day, so she has to take advantage of the darkness of the night to find a family to steal clothes that can be worn.

Fortunately, there were still a few scattered houses at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Zheng bowed and bent over, tiptoed to take a wide gray-brown linen robe from the clothesline, bowed gratefully towards the dark room after the lights went out, and turned to slip away.

Mai is the size worn by men, wrapping the body tightly from head to toe, and Zhang Zheng stole a straw hat to cover his head to cover his face.

After observing the surrounding terrain for a while, sure enough, this was indeed near Taiping Town, and when she passed by before, the houses here were as empty as in the city, with tables and chairs overturned everywhere, and Xiao Suo was deserted.

Zhang Zheng already had a faint guess in her heart that she was likely to come to the former Taiping Town.

She didn't know anything now, whether she wanted to leave this place or participate in the assessment, I was afraid that she would have to enter Taiping Town to get the clues.

An hour later, Zhang Zheng successfully slipped through the city gate into Taiping Town, fortunately the town is not big, and there are not so many rules in the mundane country, although it is a city gate, in fact, it is only an arched entrance, there is no sheltered door, and there are no city guards, she easily entered the city.

Not daring to delay in the slightest, Zhang Zheng ran straight towards the mansion where the ghost doll was.

The blood pact will engrave a mark between the two, and those who form a contract can transmit messages to each other, and she has tried to contact the ghost doll since she woke up, but unfortunately the transmission stone has sunk into the sea, and there is no news.

After entering Taiping Town, although he still hasn't heard from him, there is a vague contractual connection that faintly guides the direction of the ghost doll.

In front of the mansion, the words "Ningfu" on the plaque stopped Zhang Zheng's steps, frowning and thinking for a moment, she was sure that she had not seen this plaque, and the door of the mansion was already empty at that time.
