Seeing that the innkeeper didn't look like a joke, Yu Xiu's eyes were slightly condensed, and his face remained unchanged and said, "Let's talk about it carefully." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at the back kitchen, and estimated that there was still a long time before the food was served, so he sat down directly and cleared his throat.

"I don't know if you know, guest officer, our Beiguo County has not been peaceful recently, first the county order led the yamen to fight Nanren Temple, and burned a mountain......

Later, out of nowhere, a chivalrous man rushed into the yamen and cut off the arm of the county magistrate. ”

"It's not over...... shopkeeper lowered his voice: "Four days ago, a red-clothed and white-haired monster suddenly appeared in the county, I heard that he was three feet tall, with three feet of fangs, and a head. ”

"This monster was passing through this county, who would have thought that the county lieutenant would take someone to provoke it, not only did he not catch it, but he was also eaten by the monster Many people. ”

He clapped his palms and said, "Later, the monster rushed into the yamen, and simply killed the catcher, the county lieutenant, and the county order, all of whom were killed ......."

Yu Xiu frowned slightly when he heard what the innkeeper said, "The red-clothed and white-haired monster sounds a little familiar." Something suddenly occurred to him.

Yu Xiu asked quietly, "Is that monster still there?"

"No, no, no. The shopkeeper's head shook like a rattle, "Went south." ”

The shopkeeper sighed and said, "Later, a large number of people came from above, as if they were catching monsters, and the dead people in the yamen didn't care, and chased them overnight...... This incident made people panic, and many people left the county, and there were fewer people doing business. ”

After listening to the shopkeeper's words, Yu Xiu had a bottom in his heart.

After the food was served, he asked again, and then sent the shopkeeper away, sitting by the window alone, silently eating and drinking.

While eating, Yu Xiu suddenly laughed.

Unexpectedly, he hadn't seen him for seven days, and his two "acquaintances" in Beiguo County, the county magistrate and the county lieutenant, died together, so that he didn't even see the last one.

"I hope the long knife in the county lieutenant's hand is still there. Yu Xiu picked up a peanut and thought to himself. He only came to the county town to get a knife, and the life or death of the county lieutenant and the county commander had nothing to do with him.

As for the monster that killed the two, Yu Xiu has some clues.

His cheap master, the eyebrowless Taoist priest, and the zombie raised in the mass grave is a white-haired female corpse in a red wedding dress. This corpse was taken care of by him, and it was difficult for him to be familiar with it.

According to the innkeeper, the people who died in the county government were all sucked up of blood and died, and after death, they became dried corpses, which was terrifying, and no one dared to go to the county office to clean up the corpses.

From this point of view, the so-called white-haired monsters in red clothes are most likely white-haired female corpses in mass graves.

"It stands to reason that the female corpse should have transformed into a seventh-grade armor corpse a long time ago...... Why are you still covered in white hair?" Yu Xiu frowned suddenly.

Thinking of this, he shook his head slightly.

It is said that the reason why Yu Xiu appeared in Beiguo County was because it was far away from the mass grave, so that he could escape from the white-haired female corpse and avoid being bitten to death by it.

But now it's different, he not only learned the corpse talisman and can manipulate the corpse and control the corpse, but also practiced martial arts, has great strength, and the thoughts in his heart began to change.

If the zombies are still there, Yu Xiu may have to go forward to take a look, see if he can subdue demons and eliminate demons, and help the people in the county to take a breath of evil, so that the zombies will not be troubled in the future.

As for the zombies after submission, they are naturally used by him.

"That's it. Yu Xiu thought about it carefully, let go of this thought, and stopped thinking about it.

The zombies have already left, and there are also people from the county government, and they are chasing them overnight, and they don't stay for a moment, and Yu Xiu doesn't want to fall into this whirlpool for the time being.

After all, he still has business to do, and he needs to find the location of the "ghost market" within sixteen days.

The ghost city is in the northwest direction, and the zombie city is in the south direction, so you can't have both, and you will talk about it when you have a chance later.

Letting go of the distracting thoughts in his heart, Yu Xiu looked at the food on the table and immediately ate it.

For seven days, he stayed in the mountains, eating and drinking, and although he could endure it, it was not a good taste after all.

Sitting in the store, Yu Xiu ate for two hours in a row, slowly, not a single plate was wasted, the dishes on the table were changed three or four times from beginning to end, and almost all the meat in the inn was served.

This scene frightened the innkeeper to serve him in person again, lest he neglect Yu Xiu.

After eating until he was eight minutes full, Yu Xiu threw down the coins and walked upstairs slowly, ready to rest.

"It is rumored that people in the martial arts are either one cow for one meal, or three or four sheep for one meal, this guest officer must be a person in the martial arts!"

The shopkeeper stood in the middle of the store, looking at the messy appearance on the table, and was amazed.

......

Back in the room, Yu Xiu washed up and took a hot bath, which was regarded as eliminating the fatigue and dust on his body. Although he is already an eighth-grade martial artist, he is far from reaching the realm of avoiding dust.

According to the "Book of Martial Arts", only when the martial arts reach the realm of six grades and above, can they be free of dirt, less dust, and no peculiar smell for three days without washing.

"Martial arts are the same as immortal dao, the six grades are a watershed, the beginning of the otherworldly. Yu Xiu sat on the bed and thought secretly.

After thinking about it for a while, he immersed himself in cultivation again, although he couldn't break through to the realm of day travel for the time being, he still couldn't slack off in his cultivation.

When night fell, Yu Xiu remained motionless, still sitting cross-legged on the bed, but his Yin God had already walked out.

Yu Xiu drove around as usual to make sure that there was no existence that could endanger his physical body, and then ran in the direction of the yamen.

A moment later, Yu Xiu returned to the inn, his eyes open.

Sure enough, as the innkeeper said, there were corpses in the yamen, and no one dared to enter at all, let alone collect the corpses, and few people dared to go in and steal the property inside.

Yu Xiu stood up, moved his hands and feet in the room slightly, and then took a few things, opened the window, and jumped out directly.

There was no one in the yamen, and there was no danger, so it was just right for him to go and get what he wanted in the flesh.

The night was quiet, Yu Xiu easily walked into the yamen, walked from the wall to the courtyard, and lay down many dried corpses along the way, with no blood.

When he walked into the house, there were two coffins falling, and when he opened it, he saw that it was the county commander and the county lieutenant.

The two of them were the first and second leaders in Beiguo County, but someone helped them collect the bones. However, these two people also had withered faces and shriveled bodies, exactly like other dried corpses.

Especially the county lieutenant, the whole person is a skeleton of bones, with only a little skin stuck on it. Yu Xiu lifted the bone shelf, and a long knife pressed underneath was revealed.

"There are still loyal people in the yamen, who not only helped the two collect the corpses, but also did not even be greedy for money. Getting the long knife he wanted, Yu Xiu sighed.

In fact, Yu Xiu also knew that the long knife of the county lieutenant was the standard knife of the imperial court, called "Yidong knife", and the handle was recorded in the record, and it was used by people who were not in the government, and it was a big crime once it was discovered.

But he has already cut down all the county orders, so how can he worry about this! After using this knife, he will cut off all those who know.
