Chapter 195: Evil Spirits
() 1.
As the tea shop guy said, Taizhou City is already full of panic. But those who can still move on their legs and feet are planning to escape.
Taizhou is already in chaos. When Yu Shisan, I and I entered Taizhou City, the guards at the city gate were lax, the soldiers guarding the city gate were frightened and nervous, and occasionally a few people were planning something one after another, and there was always a sentry soldier standing beside him, even if he was sentry, he looked absent-minded.
I saw a few people not far away discussing, so I approached curiously to hear what they were talking about. Unexpectedly, as soon as I got in front of me, those people found me, exchanged glances with each other and dispersed.
All of them were very vigilant.
I grabbed a hurried passer-by on the street and said, "Dare to ask...... Before the words could be asked, the man hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, saying, "I don't know, I don't know anything." With that, he bowed his head and fled away.
In the few short days from receiving Liu Wufeng's summons to the time we came to Taizhou City, we have no way of knowing what happened here. But judging from everyone's performance, something more serious must have happened here than Liu Wufeng said, otherwise people would not have panicked so much that even the people in the official government would be nervous and whispered in low voices.
Yu 13 is not the kind of character who knows how to take care of other people's emotions. When he saw that I couldn't find any news here, he grabbed a fat man passing by and asked, "Where is the haunting?"
He asked directly, and he frightened a fat man with a ruddy complexion into a white face. He vigorously shook off Yu Thirteen's hand, and was about to leave without answering. Unexpectedly, Yu Thirteen and Three Steps rushed to him in two steps, put a cold dagger against the fat man's chest, stared at the fat man with a pair of eyes that were even more terrible than the ferocious beast, and asked, "Why don't you answer me when I ask you?"
The fat man was so weak that he sat on the ground, begging for mercy again and again: "Young man spare his life, young man spare his life!"
I couldn't look past it, thinking that at a young age of thirteen, I couldn't just make a move to make people want to die or live, since I was his master, I had the responsibility to teach him how to behave and behave. I yelled at Yu Thirteen, "Stop." Yu 13 put away the knife, and the fat man's face did not improve at all. I stepped forward and reassured, "Don't be afraid, I just want to find out what's going on in this city, why is everyone looking flustered?"
The fat man looked around vigilantly, perhaps feeling that it was sparsely populated, so he whispered, "Are you from out of town?"
I said, "Yes." ”
The fat man said, "Go away." This Taizhou city is now a fatal place, and it can't be kept. ”
I asked, "What the hell is going on, but it's haunted?"
The fat man's blood color that had just recovered a little dissipated immediately, his face turned pale, and he said in a low voice: "Hero, be quiet, this is a taboo in Taizhou City, don't say it loudly." ”
Yu 13 said: "What are you afraid of." We're here to hunt ghosts. ”
The fat man glanced at Yu Shisan, and said disdainfully: "Just you, so many heroes and heroes of the Kuocang faction can't resist it, you are so young that you speak wildly, but I am afraid that it may not be known how you will die at that time." ”
He may have forgotten that Yu Thirteen had put a dagger against his chest, so he dared to laugh at Yu Thirteen like this. Next, Yu Thirteen used his own way to replace that
The fat man reminisced and deepened his impression.
The fat man screamed. Yu Thirteen's dagger pierced an inch into the fat man's heart, and the stab was very shallow, but there was still blood pouring out. I hurriedly grabbed Yu Shisan's hand and shouted, "Why do you hurt people?"
Yu 13 said: "He laughed at me. ”
I didn't have time to argue with Yu Thirteen, so I pushed him aside and asked him to keep a certain distance from the fat man. I stood in the middle, holding the screaming fat man, and asked, "Are you okay?"
The fat man looked frightened, and begged, "Please, don't kill me, I don't know anything." ”
I glanced at Yu Shisan coldly, his face was indifferent, and he didn't have the slightest intention of reflecting on his bad behavior. I comforted the fat man instead, saying, "Don't be afraid of me." This is what I often use to comfort Shu Yao, and now I use it on this strange fat man, and I suddenly feel very weird.
But the words seemed to work well for the fat man, and his eyes were full of gratitude, almost tearful. He said, "Hero, can you let me go?"
I said, "No." ”
The fat man said, "What are you going to do?"
I said, "I just want to find out about the haunting?"
The fat man's face was twisted into a ball of pain and pain, and he said, "Why do you ask me?" ”
Yu 13 said: "You'd better answer honestly, unless you want to die." The fat man was nervous again.
I glared at Yu Shisan, continued to comfort the fat man, and said, "Don't be afraid. Tell me, what's going on in Taizhou City?"
The fat man cautiously glanced at Yu Thirteen, then at me, let out a long sigh, his face was like ashes, and said, "Okay." About a month ago, several villages around Taizhou City suddenly died overnight, all of them stiff and frosty. It is said that when the government arrived, the corpses were still cold to the tentacles, as if they were frozen. ”
I said, "I know all of this." And then?"
The fat man whispered, "Later...... Things are getting weirder. The government searched everywhere for evildoers, but all the officials who were sent out without exception turned into icemen, without any wounds on their bodies, and died a miserable death. Saying this, the fat man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, seemed to muster up a lot of courage, and continued: "From now on, no one in the official government will dare to take this errand. It just so happened that Zhang Debiao, the chief catcher of Taizhou Mansion, had something to do with the Kuocang faction, so he begged the people of the Kuocang faction to help the government arrest the murderer. ”
Kuocang faction?!
This is not unusual. Taizhou City is very close to Kuocang Mountain, and it is not surprising that Taizhou Mansion sought help from Jianghu people on the spot.
It's just that what happened next to the fat man was a big surprise, even terrifying.
The fat man said that hundreds of people from the Kuocang faction gathered in Taizhou City. The governor of Taizhou was very happy, and in order to express his gratitude, he held a banquet in the government to entertain a group of heroes and heroes of the Kuocang faction. Unexpectedly, the people of the Kuocang faction ate in Taizhou Mansion for three days, but instead of going out of the city to arrest the murderer, they asked the Taizhou Mansion and others to move out of Taizhou City as soon as possible.
The governor of Taizhou was furious and reprimanded the people of the Kuocang faction for being brazen and treacherous. But what people didn't expect was that the Taizhou Mansion was suddenly hit by a strong cold wind, and it was instantaneous
The grass and trees withered, and the land was covered with hoarfrost. Everyone was surprised, and suddenly a strange man with a cloak outside the mansion, his eyes were red, and his face was extremely hideous, and with a wave of his hand, the Taizhou Mansion went to the ice cave, and the Lord Zhizhou and the guards all became icemen.
Since then, the strange man has taken over the Taizhou Mansion. He coerced the Kuocang faction and the officials inside and outside the government to comply, demanding that they be tight inside and loose outside, as if nothing happened. But people are dying every day in Taizhou City, and people are disappearing inexplicably every day. All of them sank into great fear, but no one dared to resist. Because the bad guy is so powerful, his skills hardly seem to be owned by mortals, so everyone calls him a demon.
Gradually, some people wanted to escape and leave Taizhou City. But the evil ghost seems to have laid countless eyes in Taizhou City, as long as someone escapes, Taizhou City, he will suddenly appear and freeze the fleeing person into an iceman.
The fat man sighed and said: "Hero, this Taizhou City is a place where it is easy to get in and difficult to get out, you have come to the wrong place." ”
"That's right!" I was thrilled. The fat man looked dazed and asked, "That's right, I've said it so far, do you think it's right?"
That's right. I am even more convinced that it is the Mahabat Mantra. And the secret book that I lost in my hand should be the only one left in the world. If you find the "evil ghost" in the fat man's mouth, you will definitely be able to find out Shu Yao's whereabouts.
It's just that I feel a strong sense of uneasiness in my heart. From the fat man's mouth, he learned that the man's cultivation of the Maha Bowl Mantra had almost reached an outrageous point, wouldn't it be ......
No!
I hurriedly interrupted my thoughts. Shu Yao will definitely be safe, and she will definitely return to me safely.
I said to Yu 13: "Let's go to the Taizhou Mansion." ”
"Are you crazy?!" roared the fat man, "do you know the evil ...... That person is in the Taizhou Mansion, wouldn't you go to the Taizhou Mansion to kill yourself?!"
I ignored it, and took Yu Shisan and ran in the direction of the Taizhou Mansion.
2.
Taizhou City is not big, compared to Lin'an, it is indeed like a projectile land. But it is also very large, crisscrossed by alleys, and the terrain is very complicated.
Pedestrians on the road avoided talking about it. Even in the face of Yu Shisan's death threats, no one was willing to tell me the specific location of the Taizhou Mansion.
I can't really ask Yu Thirteen to kill them.
Just as I was at a loss, I suddenly saw a figure passing by at the end of the alley.
Although it was a blink of an eye, I still felt that the broad and strong figure made me feel familiar.
I chased after Yu Thirteen. Chasing through an alley, the figure seemed to notice my stalking, and stopped at the end of the alley.
I didn't know if I was friend or foe, so I hurriedly hid myself.
"What kind of people are sneaky, why don't you come out and let people understand. "The voice is thick and powerful, full of energy.
I had heard who he was, and I was thinking about whether or not I should show up to meet him. But I heard him cry like a lion's roar, "Come out quickly!"
The sound was particularly shocking, and even the wall behind him was shaken off a lot of dust.
I shook my head and smiled bitterly, walked out slowly, and arched my hand: "Brother Zhou, don't come to harm!"
