Chapter 1: Killing on a Snowy Night

Next Chapter

The sky is gray. Icy snowflakes beat the ground in the cold wind. Turned the earth silver-gray. From time to time, there were terrible screams ahead.

A boy about fourteen or fifteen years old was alone on the road, muttering, "It's almost there, it's almost to the town! He was wearing a thin cotton coat with an unknown number of patches, and he was carrying a paper lantern for a few pennies each.

He turned pale with fright when he heard the scream, but he couldn't stop, because his father was dying of illness and he had to go to the town to find a doctor.

It's about to be in the town, the villagers are all in the town, and if you find Dr. Liu, you can save your father. Dad, you must hold on. The boy kept reminding himself in his heart, and although he was scared in his heart, he still stubbornly walked forward.

But when he walked to the archway at the entrance of Anle Town, he was still stupid. Because there was someone in front of him, a man in black with a long sword in his hand was standing under the archway, and the sword was dripping with blood, and there was also a lot of blood on the stone pillar of the archway on the ground!

It's over! Encounter a vendetta in the rivers and lakes! The young man stopped there in fright, his legs trembled, and he cautiously hid to the side. In case it is discovered by the black-clad swordsman in front.

"The Buddha, the Taoist Ancestor, the God of Wealth, blessed me to find the doctor. He whispered in a whisper, but the faint light of the lantern was noticed by the black-clad swordsman, who stood in front of him in the blink of an eye. Getting closer, a smell of blood came to my nose. Smelling the smell, the boy almost threw up.

"Don't kill me, hero, I didn't see anything, my dad is dying of illness, I'm here to find a doctor, I really didn't see anything. The young man sat in front of the man in black in fear and said in horror, the man in black seemed to sense something, turned around and looked behind, a trace of uneasiness flashed in his eyes, the man in black was very good, he hurriedly ran into the night and was about to disappear into the night, but he heard a rapid sound of the piano. The sound of the piano was very harsh, and the boy hurriedly blocked his ears.

With a dull shout, the man in black who was about to disappear into the night actually knelt on the ground with his neck covered, and a faint voice came out of his mouth: "Heavenly Demon Qin...... Seven absolute sounds. With that, he fell to the ground and died.

The boy was so frightened that he threw away the lantern in his hand and ran to the town, but he didn't run fast because his legs were shaking.

The boy staggered and ran, feeling something kick under his feet. He was so frightened that he almost collapsed on the ground. It turned out to be a human head, with stray hair. And his face is hideous, which shows that he suffered greatly before he died. The boy looked at the human head carefully, and the two ears were cut off. One didn't know where it went, and the other was half-hung on his face with a trace of flesh and skin, dangling around, staring straight at him with white miserable eyes. His nose seemed to have been broken by a punch, and there was not a single tooth left in his mouth. Seeing this scene, the young man was like being pointed, and he couldn't move. Smelled rancidity, sour water in my stomach.

The boy resisted the urge to vomit and settled down to overcome his fear. He ran forward over that head, not caring about the rotten limbs that were stepping on the ground. He stepped on something soft again, and his face turned pale with fright when he saw that it was just a little better. It was a half-cut right hand, and it still held the knife tightly. The flesh on his fingers was sliced alive, and Sensen's white bones could be seen on his arms. It shows the killer's fierce martial arts.

The boy retched and ran desperately into town. His face was so frightened that he didn't have any blood at all.

It was already the middle of the night and it was snowing heavily, so the town was quiet and there was no one. The lantern hanging in front of the merchant has also been extinguished, and the young man ran to a pharmacy with a familiar car, and the young man knocked on the door of the pharmacy desperately, knocking for a long time before there was a little movement inside.

"If you're here to see a doctor, come back tomorrow!" came a little girl's voice.

"Xiaohui, Xiaohui, I'm Lou Yun! I'm looking for Grandpa Liu! My dad is dying! Save my dad!" Lou Yun shouted anxiously into the pharmacy.

"Oh, it's Brother Yun, don't worry, I'll call Grandpa to come in first. ”

After a while, a little girl with clear eyebrows opened the door for Lou Yun. Xiaohui hurriedly called her grandfather. Dr. Liu put on his clothes, took the medicine box, and went out with Lou Yun.

Seeing Lou Yun shivering in the cold wind, Dr. Liu put a cotton coat on his body for him.

When he walked to the entrance of the town, Lou Yun grabbed Dr. Liu's clothes and hid behind him, his body still shaking. Dr. Liu stepped forward, but saw the remains and bloody human heads on the ground. Suddenly I was shocked, but he was Lang Zhong, and he was a servant when he was young, so he was not as scared as Lou Yun, and when he saw the bloodless appearance of the child behind him, he knew that he had been frightened a lot just now.

Lou Yun's father was a down-the-top man, and because of Lou Yun, he gave up the opportunity to enter the office. But Lou Yun seems to be born with poison, because Lou Yun is born with poison, Lou Ju is afraid that the poison on his body will bring trouble to the villagers in the town, and Lou Yun will not be rejected by everyone. So he took him out of the town and lived in a broken kiln on the loess hill not far from the town.

Lou Juren has been taking Lou Yun around to seek medical treatment all these years, wanting to get rid of this poisonous blood and cure him of his strange disease, but including Dr. Liu invited by Lou Yun this time, every doctor who treated Lou Yun said that there was no cure. Some doctors even predicted that Lou Yun would not live to be twenty years old. Even so, Lou Juren still never gave up on this son who was suffering from incurable diseases.

Dr. Liu is a kind person, respects Lou Juren and gives up a bright future for this child, and pities him for suffering so much. So he has always taken more care of his father and son. He is a langzhong, and he has been a servant. He has seen too many life and death, he often deals with all kinds of herbs, although he does not dare to say that all poisons are inviolable, but he is not close to illness and evil.

It's just that Lou Juren is very sick this time, and he has lived with Lou Yun for a long time, so he will inevitably be contaminated with the toxicity on his body, and he has already become a yellow-faced and thin-skinned waste person after a long time of starvation. Dr. Liu shook his head vigorously and sighed, afraid that he wouldn't be able to survive tonight.

Lou Yun ran in and out of boiling water, decocting medicine, wiping Lou Xiucai's body and sweat. I don't dare to let myself be idle, and I vaguely know it in my heart, so I have been scared. This is the only relative he has in the world.

Lou Juren finally didn't make it to dawn, and when he was dying, he was still worried about what Lou Yun would do after his death. Dr. Liu comforted him and said that he would take Lou Yun in, let him go to his pharmacy to help, and he could also be a companion with Xiaohui, and he would definitely find a way to cure Lou Yun. But Lou Juren didn't want to cause him any more trouble because of Dr. Liu's kindness over the years. Before he died, he explained to Lou Yun that he would go to Peacock Villa after he died, and Qiu Yuqing, the owner of Peacock Villa, once owed him a favor. Moreover, the Qiu family is good at secret weapons and poison skills, maybe he can help Lou Yun. His father wrote him a letter and asked him to bring it to the owner of the Autumn Village. But Lou Yun saw a trace of sadness in his father's eyes.

The next day, Dr. Liu begged the blind date in the town to help Lou Yun bury Lou Yun with his face. Dr. Liu thought that he was too young to go outside alone, and hoped that he would stay first. But when Lou Yun saw the eyes of the villagers looking at him, he made up his mind to set off immediately, obeying his father's last order to go to Peacock Villa to find the owner of Qiu Village.

Because he also knows his own situation, he has been taken care of by everyone over the years, and he doesn't want to cause trouble to everyone anymore, especially Dr. Liu. Dr. Liu couldn't resist him, so he had to give him a little silver to wrap around. Dr. Liu told him that if Peacock Villa didn't take him in, he would come back to him immediately, and Anle Town would always be his home. Lou Yun just nodded in agreement.

Early in the morning of the second day, Lou Yun packed up his things, kowtowed a few times in front of his father's grave, said goodbye to Dr. Liu and Xiaohui and went to Peacock Villa. Before Lou Yun left, Xiaohui gave Lou Yun a cotton cloak of his own.
