There are not many residents in Panlong Town, even if you count the surrounding agricultural population, there are only five or six thousand in total, of which there are only three or two butchers, and Butcher Zhang is the oldest one.

In everyone's impression, Butcher Zhang is a fat and sloppy middle-aged man, with a shiny belly all year round, and on weekdays, most of the work will be handed over to the assistant chef Li Si to do, and he is only responsible for slaughtering and chopping bones.

Butcher Zhang likes to drink, but he doesn't pay much attention to wine, the most inferior glazed roast in the town can also be drunk comfortably, and when he is more free on weekdays, he sits in his own kitchen and mixes pig ears to eat.

And today, when the butcher really stood in front of the three of them, they felt that the figure of the butcher Zhang was so huge!

Among the detective trio, Dong Erfat, who has the strongest body, is born with a strong physique and good physical fitness, and at the age of ten, he is almost the height of an ordinary normal person, and standing in front of the fat Roshan in front of him, it is still not as thick as the butcher's thighs.

"Uncle Zhang, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?" Dong Erpang asked tremblingly as he looked at the shaking kitchen knife in the butcher's hand.

The butcher burped, a disgusting greasy smell, mixed with inferior soju and the sour smell of gastric juice, instantly filled the whole room, the butcher shook and asked slowly: "I just asked you, why did you three little babies come to me? Aren't you going to the school tomorrow?"

"We came to find the fourth brother, we haven't seen each other for a few months, we are a little worried, the elders of the family said that the fourth brother will not come back, the three of us don't believe it, so we made an appointment to come over at night. Zhao Xifeng was talking nonsense that he didn't believe very much, and hurriedly replied.

"Li Si, this boy," said the butcher, shaking his head with another smack, "during the Chinese New Year, he withdrew five taels of silver from me in advance, and then the man disappeared in a fucking manner, and it has been a few months! I originally lent him this house to live in, and now he has run away with my money, and I will use it as a warehouse in the future, and you will come less, do you hear?"

The three of them nodded like chickens pecking rice.

"What are you doing standing there, get out of here!" said Butcher Zhang, touching his stomach, and shaking the kitchen knife in his hand intentionally or unintentionally.

As if they had been pardoned, the three of them ran out of the hut with a smoke, and kept walking all the way until they reached the center of the town near the drum tower before stopping, panting for breath.

"He's lying," Dong Erpang said smoothly, "If the things in the room were all emptied by him, then he should have known that there was nothing left here, why did he make a special trip to the third watch in the middle of the night today, obviously he came with us!"

"Before Mr. Zhou comes back, all the investigation about Li Si will end here. Zhao Xifeng was silent for a while, and then said solemnly.

"Why is this? We finally found a clue!" Dong Erpang was not convinced, and asked in a loud voice.

"Are you scared?" Zhao Xifeng asked abruptly,

"What?" Dong Erpang didn't quite understand.

"I mean," Zhao Xifeng asked word by word, "Fang is in the hut, are you afraid?"

Dong Erpang pouted and replied: "Of course you're afraid, aren't you afraid?" Zhang Tuzi has such a big knife in his hand!"

"I'm afraid too, but why should we be afraid?" Zhao Xifeng asked again.

At this time, Gu Qingyuan and Dong Erpang both understood the meaning of Zhao Xifeng's words, when facing the killer who took people's lives with a knife, Zhao Xifeng faced off head-on and won, without fear, challenging Zhong Li alone in the academy, Zhao Xifeng fought hard and finally narrowly won, and there was also no fear, but just now, when facing an ordinary butcher, the three cultivators who had already entered the period of taking care of the body actually felt a trembling and fear emanating from the bones, so how terrifying the butcher's aura and cultivation should be!

Gu Qingyuan nodded in agreement: "I think so too, when I was in Li Siwu, I had a hunch that if it weren't for Butcher Zhang's lack of confidence that he would have killed the three of us quietly in an instant without using his cultivation, we would have died." ”

The three of them were silent, thinking about the escape from death just now, and they all broke out in a cold sweat.

"Let's get here today," Zhao Xifeng said first after being silent for a long time, "Although Li Si's line can't be checked, it's not nothing, at least it has been determined that the people in the laundry in the south of the city are the targets to be fortified by the future school, and they have also found out that the purple river sandalwood in Qingyuan's mouth, as for the future, let's take a step at a time." ”

Dong Gu and the two nodded, and the three of them separated, and walked home with heavy hearts.

When Zhao Xifeng returned home, Zhao Wu had already been asleep for a long time.

Zhao Xifeng walked back to his room and closed the door. , silently recalling the people and things I have experienced in the past six months.

Now he finally understands what Zhou Zhe said to him and Li Xuan alone when he left the town a few years ago.

Now there are a lot of changes in Panlong Town, there are many new people, more energetic, and more dangerous.

The killer who suddenly appeared inexplicably, the branch of Beiyue Academy that opened in the north of the town a few days ago, and the butcher I just met, etc...

Every thing, every person, has a huge energy that Zhao Xifeng can't resist.

He thought for a moment, and pulled out a stone from his bosom, which was a very ordinary stone, no different from an ordinary pebble, about the size of two adult thumbs. But it's just such an ordinary stone. But it allowed him to fight Zhong Li a few days ago, in the realm where the flow of spiritual energy was forbidden, to instantly replenish the spirit element, so that Zhao Xifeng could use that slap with a loud horizontal arm. If it weren't for the changes that appeared on Zhong Li's body later to attract everyone's attention, the matter of Shizi would definitely have to be asked by Mr. Qian, how should he explain its origin at that time?

After all, before this, whether it was the romance of the novel or the strange things that Mr. Zhou usually talked about in the recess, he had never heard of anyone who could bring the things in his dreams back to reality, which is too incredible!

He had a faint premonition in his heart, it seemed that many people in the town who had recently arrived were looking for something, and it was very likely that it was the stone in his hand, and all he could rely on was a good relationship with the dry sea monk, the identity of a student in the school's partial hall, and the faceless stone in his hand.

So naturally, Zhao Xifeng thought of the nine-style body method that Kuhai had taught him before.

It's unreliable, it's better to ask for others than for yourself, at least in the future, when you encounter a killer, you can't just rely on the old monk to barely save your life, Zhao Xifeng thought.

The sky was slightly white, and a new day began.
