Chapter 31: The Bloodstained Copper Coins

The young man quietly stared at the old man who suddenly appeared, and did not reply.

The old man repeated again, his voice stiff, "Have you seen my family?"

A trace of cold sweat had already appeared on the young man's forehead, and his palm was tightly gripping the hilt of the knife.

Giggle'

The old man slowly tilted his neck, and a stiff voice came as he continued to stare at the young man, his eyes empty, and spoke for the third time.

"Have you seen my family?"

This time, his voice was muffled, filled with a dull air of death.

In the dark night, it looks extremely terrifying!

"Nope. ”

The young man gripped the hilt of his knife tightly and opened his mouth hoarsely.

"Oh. ”

The old man got a response, and with an oh sound, it seemed that he was about to turn away.

But at the moment when he turned around, he suddenly stopped, looked at the young man out of the corner of his eye, and asked, "If someone wants to borrow a breath of yang qi from you, will you borrow it?"

The young man's eyes narrowed, he looked at the strange old man solemnly, and said, "Who are you?"

"If someone wants to borrow a breath of yang qi from you, will you borrow it?"

The old man repeated again, his voice stiff and wooden.

"Pretending to be a ghost!"

The youth was utterly furious.

Boom!

The lightning swept away, the sword was shining, and it quickly slashed through the dark night.

Burst!

The old man's body was cut off on the spot, and the upper half of the body flew out sideways, but there was no blood left.

Such a scene was simply weird, and the young man's eyes widened in shock.

The next moment!

Bang!

The two halves of the corpse fell to the ground at the same time, making a muffled sound, a bang, and turned into a white maggot, wriggling wildly, densely packed, I don't know how many.

Suddenly, the white maggots all rushed out and swooped towards the young man's body.

The young man's face was shocked, and he hurriedly waved his knife to resist, but it was useless.

Yes!

A scream pierced the night and soon came to an abrupt end.

```

In the morning, the sun is three poles.

Zhang Yuan got up from the quilt, stretched his waist, and slept soundly.

After getting up and washing, go downstairs to eat.

Downstairs, a group of heroes were discussing.

After seeing Zhang Yuan go downstairs, Zhang Xueshan and a group of heroes immediately greeted him.

"Zhang Shaoxia, how did you rest last night?"

Zhang Xueshan asked.

"Not bad, what's wrong?

Zhang Yuan asked.

Nervousness was evident on the faces of these people.

The girl in the goose yellow dress was even more pale and extremely ugly.

Zhang Xueshan nodded heavily and gestured, "Sit here, Zhang Shaoxia." ”

Zhang Yuan walked over.

A table of meals has already been prepared.

He didn't move his chopsticks immediately, but looked at Zhang Xueshan and a group of heroes from the rivers and lakes, waiting for them to speak.

Zhang Xueshan sighed and said with a wry smile: "Zhang Shaoxia, there was an accident last night, the rain knife was found dead under a bridge on West Street, and when the body was salvaged, there was no injury at all, but the Yamen's catch was fast, and after cutting his stomach, countless white maggots came out of it."

Vomit'''

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but retch.

Nima, can you still eat in the morning?

He glanced at Zhang Xueshan with disgust.

Zhang Xueshan also smiled bitterly, and said: "The strength of the rainstorm knife is good, and it is on par with me, I have fought him four times and it is difficult to tell the winner, this time I actually died here, this kind of death is unprecedented." ”

Zhang Yuan suddenly frowned.

He remembered what he had heard from the shopkeeper of the rice shop a few days ago.

At the intersection of West Street, there was a square butcher, and the whole family died suddenly, from the outside, there was no injury at all, but there were maggots inside.

At that time, the man who was in charge of examining the corpse actually went crazy afterwards, killed all the family, escaped, and disappeared without a trace.

Zhang Yuan's heart quickly flashed.

These two incidents seem to boil down to one!

So!

Is this evil again?

And it could be the same cult!

"Zhang Shaoxia, what do you think about this?"

The girl in goose yellow clothes looked at Zhang Yuan and asked with a pale face.

All the heroes looked at Zhang Yuan nervously.

Zhang Yuan shook his head and said: "In my opinion, it should just be some means of the left side door, and the rainstorm knife may have been plotted." ”

"Plotted?"

Everyone looked at each other.

But when they thought of the scene in the morning, they still had a chill.

What kind of conspiracy can make maggots grow in people's bodies?

Even if it's the left way, they haven't heard of such a left way?

"Don't worry, I'm here in this matter, and I will definitely seek justice for Brother Zhang of the Rainstorm Knife!"

Zhang Yuan said.

He did not explain the situation to the people, so as not to cause confusion.

The entire city of Chujiang was blocking the news.

Now this group of people in the rivers and lakes just regarded the matter of Chu Jiangcheng as an ordinary vendetta, and once they learned that there was an evil spirit, they didn't know how much trouble they would make.

Therefore, Zhang Yuan can only choose to keep it a secret!

"Alright, everyone, don't be nervous, let's eat. ”

Zhang Yuan said.

glanced at the food on the table, and suddenly thought of what Zhang Xueshan had just said about maggots, and suddenly his stomach churned.

Vomit'''

Suddenly.

A voice reached his ears.

"Is this blood?

He looked at the voice quickly and followed the sound.

Front desk shopkeeper.

The old shopkeeper grabbed a handful of copper coins and quickly put them on the table, his face was shocked, his hands trembled, and he saw that his whole hands were stained with blood.

The copper coins on the table were all covered with blood.

"Little Erzi, what did you do, did you put something in my cash box?"

The old shopkeeper looked at the shopkeeper angrily.

The shopkeeper looked aggrieved and said, "Shopkeeper, how dare I do this? Besides, the cash box is usually locked, only you have the key, how can I open it?"

"So what's the blood? Is it blood or paint? What's going on?"

The shopkeeper said angrily.

"I'''I don't know. ”

The shopkeeper wondered.

Zhang Yuan's eyes froze, revealing a slight discoloration.

It's blood, that's right!

His sense of smell is now extremely acute.

You can clearly smell the slightest hint of blood in the air!

"Whose prank is this, don't get caught by me, or I'll break his legs!"

The old shopkeeper trembled with anger.

He had been startled, a little frightened, but now it was all anger.

"Quick, carry all my money to the backyard to wash, don't deduct me, I can't spare you if I don't have a child. The old shopkeeper said angrily,

A few guys resigned, hurriedly lifted the cash box, and walked towards the backyard.

They want to break their heads, but they can't figure out why there is blood.

"Zhang Shaoxia, what are you looking at?"

Zhang Xueshan asked suspiciously.

"Ah, nothing. ”

Zhang Yuan turned his head.

Their internal strength is insufficient, and it is normal that they can't hear the words of the old shopkeeper.

Holding back the nausea, Zhang Yuan and the others had breakfast.

For the next whole day, at the invitation of Zhang Xueshan, he investigated in Chujiang City, wanting to find some clues.

Unfortunately, nothing will be gained.

How can the power of evil leave clues?

It's something that doesn't make sense.

The day passed quickly.

In the evening, they returned to the inn again.

Zhang Yuan once again heard the angry voice of the old shopkeeper.

"Little Erzi, I asked you to launder money, you dare to be lazy, come and see, what are you laundering?"

"Ah, how can this be?"

"Shopkeeper, we really cleaned it, this'''This is definitely someone doing it again!"

"Yes, we promise to wash it, how can this be?"

```

Zhang Yuan's eyes looked at it, and he saw that the old shopkeeper had blood in his hand, grabbed a handful of copper coins, and was furious.
