Chapter 108: Strange Black Shadow
Gate of Bliss.
"Sister Wushuang, a few more died last night. ”
A woman in Tsing Yi stood in Nangong Wushuang's room and said slowly.
Hearing this woman's words, Nangong Wushuang couldn't help frowning.
"How many times has this been this month, and how many people have died?"
Nangong Wushuang shook his head and said lightly.
"The third time, counting, almost twenty people, strange to say, since the beginning of the month, almost every ten days, one to three days each time, yesterday was the first day. ”
The woman in Tsing Yi thought about it and said, her face full of doubts.
"Is there any movement over there in the North Wind Tower?"
Nangong Wushuang nodded, and then asked.
"There hasn't been much movement at the moment, just some people have been sent to check on the streets, and it is said that two of their people died last night. ”
The woman in Tsing Yi said slowly.
"It seems that the murderer will not live to the end of this month. ”
Nangong Wushuang smiled and said lightly.
......
Night.
Seongnam blacksmith shop.
As the last of the shaped ironwork was placed in the pool of cold water, the blacksmith shop closed its doors.
Blacksmith Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, lifted the kettle on the side and took a few big sips, and burped in satisfaction.
I glanced at the deposit I had collected for the day in the wooden box next to me, and smiled with satisfaction.
After tidying up, Blacksmith Zhang locked the door and walked to a wonton stall across the street, asking for two bowls.
The owner of the wonton stall was also diligent, and soon served all the two bowls of wonton on the table, and did not forget to give a plate of side dishes.
The two seemed to know each other very well, and they chatted without a word.
Soon, Blacksmith Zhang finished eating the two bowls of wonton, put down the money, got up and walked back to his shop.
This is the 28th day that he has come to Cangzhou City, and it will be a month soon, and every night's dinner is a bowl of wonton, and he may be a little tired today, so he asked for two bowls, which is considered to treat himself.
After returning to the blacksmith shop, it didn't take long for Blacksmith Zhang to turn off the lights and fall asleep.
It's a very ordinary ending, like the life of an ordinary person in a day, and there is nothing different about it.
In the shadow of the street in the distance, there were three people standing, watching Blacksmith Zhang close the door, eat, and go home from beginning to end, and never left for a moment.
It was Xiao Jun, Bao and Feng.
"Lord, are you sure the murderer is this person?"
Bao looked at the blacksmith shop on the opposite corner suspiciously, and asked in a low voice.
"Who else but him. ”
Xiao Jun leaned against the cold wall and said lightly, looking at the blacksmith shop with unblinking eyes.
"But he looks like an ordinary person, he doesn't even look like a practitioner when he walks, let alone a killer who can kill five people in a row overnight, and there are two Jianghu people who are not weak in martial arts. ”
Feng Bo Evil also asked a little blankly.
"Stop talking, keep an eye on it. ”
Xiao Jun said lightly.
Hearing is false, seeing is believing, and no matter how much you say, it is not as good as what you see with your own eyes.
Xiao Jun could almost conclude that the murderer who killed last night was this blacksmith, otherwise why would Nangong Wushuang let himself kill an ordinary person who was striking iron? Just for fun? Impossible.
And the two people in the Vulture Palace were killed last night while monitoring this person, and it is likely that they witnessed this person's murder and wanted to stop it, but they were killed back.
Otherwise, there is no way to explain all this.
Therefore, today Xiao Jun brought Bao Wei and Storm Evil to personally monitor, he wanted to see how this carpenter who pretended to be a blacksmith killed people.
During the day, he had already sent someone to inquire about it, and this was the third time this month, and the third time ever, and the first time had started just a few days after the blacksmith had moved in.
......
Before I knew it, it was already very deep, and there were few living people on the street, and even the person who set up the wonton stall had already closed the stall.
However, Xiao Jun, Bao and Feng were still staying in the alley, and they seemed to have already made up their minds, and they planned to stand until dawn without waiting for Blacksmith Zhang to kill people.
As the minutes ticked by, it seemed that the sky was about to dawn, but the blacksmith still didn't react.
The night was so close that it seemed that the snoring of the blacksmith could be heard.
Xiao Jun was also a little impatient, and almost couldn't help but rush in and pick up Blacksmith Zhang and ask him if he had killed anyone.
"Squeak......
At this moment, the sound of opening the door came into the ears of Xiao Jun and the three of them!
Maybe it was too quiet at night, and the sound of the door panel rubbing was particularly loud and harsh.
Immediately afterwards, I saw the door of the blacksmith shop slowly open, and out came a man shrouded in a black cloak, gently closed the door, looked around, and walked into the distance.
Xiao Jun squinted his eyes and couldn't help frowning as the black figure gradually faded away. He could see very clearly that the person was Blacksmith Zhang, and what surprised him even more was that Blacksmith Zhang's eyes at this time had completely turned red, red like blood, and frighteningly red.
Without hesitation, the three of them quietly followed behind Blacksmith Zhang and followed all the way.
Maybe it was late to close the stall, maybe it was late to come back from going out to run errands, and two figures appeared on the street, talking in a low voice while walking briskly, probably in the direction of going home.
But at that moment, a black thing blocked their way, in the middle of the road.
The two of them looked at it closely, only to find that it was a figure, a person shrouded in a black cloak, and then patted their chests and breathed a sigh of relief.
"What are you doing?!What are you doing pretending to be a ghost in the middle of the night!?Don't die!?"
One of them yelled at the shadow, gritting his teeth with hatred, thinking he had seen a ghost.
The shadow didn't speak, just standing motionless.
"What are you doing?!Hurry up! Otherwise, be careful that Uncle will kill you!"
The other person pointed at the black shadow, threatening, and tried to pretend to be fierce, but in fact, he was obviously not confident.
The black shadow still didn't say a word, and didn't move.
The two men glanced at each other, emboldened, and walked together towards the shadow, intending to see who was pretending to be a ghost.
But at this moment, the black shadow suddenly moved, and the speed was very fast, like a fierce beast, let out a low roar, and in the blink of an eye, it had rushed in front of the two men.
Immediately afterwards, I saw the black shadow jump up, jump directly on the body of one of them, and bite the person's neck!
With a scream, the man's neck was bitten open in an instant, and blood gushed out, all of which were sucked into his mouth by the black shadow!
When the other man saw this scene, he couldn't help but exclaim, his face was like ashes, and he froze in place, his feet as if they had been filled with lead, and he couldn't move a bit.
"Hell..."
A cry of despair pierced the silence of the night sky.
