Splashy didn't say much, received the reward, and the cat walked into the alley and disappeared.

Li Xun left a mark on the door and turned to leave.

……

It's night.

Changed into last year's torn cotton clothes and wrapped a face scarf, Li Xun carried the Pu knife and found the mark left behind.

The edge of the knife had been sharpened, revealing a hint of chill in the cold moonlight.

Around the perimeter of the wooden house, a window was found behind it.

Only a thin bits of the window paper remained, and the cold air poured straight into the room.

Li Xun dodged and rolled in.

The low room was empty, and a bed in the right corner could be faintly seen, and a person was lying on the bed, covered with a half-quilt.

The room stinks, as if it had been spilled.

With the help of the moonlight, Li Madman touched it.

Just as he wanted to solve this scourge with a knife, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

After staying in place for a few minutes, Li Xun realized that something was wrong.

No breathing!

How is it possible not to breathe?

Not dead!

Li Xun chuckled in his heart, took two steps back, found a broken oil lamp in the corner of the table, and lit it with a fire breaker.

In the dim light, only a rotting skeleton remained on the bed.

The corpse's eyes widened, and its mouth opened. There was no flesh below the sternum anymore, as if something had eaten it.

That's where the stench comes from.

Li Xun was a little sick to his stomach.

A splash of skin died quietly in his own home.

Covering his nose, he looked at it, and there was an obvious knife wound on his sternum.

It is estimated that the injury was too serious, and he died directly.

However, the right half is covered with a broken quilt, so I can't see the situation clearly.

Li Xun picked up the quilt with a simple knife, but only saw a pair of green eyes.

The right hand holding the Pu knife tensed instantly, and then slowly let go.

The oil lamp shone forward.

A baby less than one year old.

His face was covered in blood and carrion.

The hands are thin like black chicken feet, with occasional spasms. The two calves were pressed by the corpse, black and purple, and obviously necrotic.

The mouth also held the right thumb of the corpse, sucking blood and pus.

Li Xun's heart was a little numb.

Pity, or other unspeakable emotion.

For such a young child, his family died wildly, and his survival was all stained by blood......

Chaos to the extreme!

He sighed.

I was just about to do something when I suddenly heard a sound of footsteps.

With a fixed gaze, Li Xun blew out the oil lamp, put it back in place, restored the position of the quilt, and quickly turned it over to the outside of the window.

Footsteps stopped at the doorway, followed by the sound of unlocking.

The person who came was a thin black young man.

He lit the oil lamp, covered his mouth and nose, and moved to the bedside.

was muttering in his mouth: "Ah Da, it's not me who wants to move your corpse, it's really the government that has been too strict recently!" For the sake of the great plan of the church, you will sacrifice it. ”

He took out a cloth bag, put the baby inside, and bowed to the corpse again.

"I'll burn you some paper money in two days."

Tie the cloth bag around his waist, and he laughed again.

"Collect this flesh and blood rotting baby, the task of the Dao Leader is completed, I can get a hundred copper coins, buy more rice when the time comes, and..."

The figure faded away, and the voice faded in.

Li Xun listened sincerely, and his brows were tightly locked.

The big plan, the flesh and blood rotting baby, the Taoist ......

It was as if a fog shrouded the Cracked City.

He stood in the fog and couldn't see clearly.

……

In the eyes of Senior Brother Zhang Yi, Li Xun's life was finally a little better.

The money for the purchase is in his hands, and even if he doesn't eat the kickback, he can leave a little oil and water.

From time to time, there is a little more meat in the meal, and I can also pull a cotton cloth for my sister.

Li's father and Li's mother have been disconnected for so long, and they asked someone to bring the news in the middle of the month.

The heavy snow crushed the rope bridge of the cliff, and they were all dragged to repair the bridge as strong men.

To be alive is to be good.

Li Xun's tense nerves loosened a little.

In the next few days, Master Zhou celebrated his 50th birthday, bought a few sheep, and each of them shared a big bowl.

The refining fire finally turned completely crimson that night.

Enchanting and fiery.

However, Li Xun didn't plan to use fire refining right now.

He has already entered the late stage of skin refining, and in another month, he will be able to temper to perfection and prepare for the later bone refining.

The best time to use the skin is when the skin is perfect.

It's been so long, and he can afford to wait for a month.

……

After finishing the daily standing pile and getting dressed, Li Xun returned to the room.

Li Wan had already cooked lunch.

A plate of pork stew with Chinese cabbage, a plate of shredded potatoes with green peppers.

Brown rice was boiled in a large pot.

"Wash your hands and come over for dinner, Brother Xun."

Li Wan cleaned up the kitchen and sat down at the dining table.

"I heard that the Zoroastrian stronghold in a small town outside the city has been discovered, and more than a thousand people have been..."

Knock knock!

There was a knock at the door.

Outside the door is Senior Brother Zhang Yi.

Seeing that the two were eating, the senior brother was not polite, and sat down with a bowl and chopsticks.

Li Wan took a chopstick of cabbage and a chopstick of shredded potatoes, and carried the bowl into the kitchen.

"What's wrong, what's wrong with the batch of medicinal herbs I just bought?"

Li Xun took a bite of pork and was not in a hurry.

It's not a big problem if something happens, otherwise Senior Brother wouldn't be so relaxed.

"Boss Zhang doesn't dare to engage in fakes, at most there is a little less volume... The Li sister's cooking skills are getting better and better... You really forgot, tomorrow is the time to report to the Lu family hunting team! ”

Senior Brother Zhang Yi took a big bite of rice, and he couldn't see the appearance of a rich kid at all.

Hunting party.

He thought of Qingluan, who would stay on the tower every once in a while.

The Lu family became the overlord of Split Zhao City, relying on this ability to domesticate Qingluan.

And flying to the wilderness more than a thousand miles away can only be done by the Lu family.

Senior Brother Zhang Yi handed over a voucher.

"Wait tomorrow morning at the Zedemon Tower in the inner city, don't be too late. Just bring a set of summer clothes, and there's no need to eat or drink. ”

Only this piece of paper can allow non-Lu family disciples to enter the perimeter of the Ze Demon Tower.

Looking up, through the window, the only crimson towering building you can see is the Zedemon Tower.

Li Xun nodded and expressed his gratitude.

Senior Brother Zhang Yi wiped his mouth, he only ate a small bowl.

whispered: "There is news about the flesh rotting baby that you kid wants to check!" ”

"It is an evil outer baby cultivated by the Fire Transmission Sect, which is said to be able to devour human flesh and blood, occupy the body, and look no different from ordinary people."

"It's all a trick!"

He advised, "You just need to know this, don't have anything to do with the Zoroastrianism. ”

The senior brother explained two more sentences before leaving.

Li Wan walked out of the kitchen.

The girl is pregnant with spring, and her sister still has a good impression of the tall and polite and gentle brother Zhang Yi.

"Senior brother is here this time..."

Li Xun briefly talked about the hunting team.

My sister's face was full of worry.

"It's just an entourage, helping to deal with the flesh and blood of savage beasts, there is no danger."

Li Xun pointed to the dishes on the table: "Eat quickly, otherwise it will be cold... Have a good rest today and leave tomorrow morning. ”

When I come back this time, I can get a pound of brute beast flesh and blood.

Li Xun's heart was a little eager.
