Chapter 23 The Lady of the Satin Shop(1/2)
"I am home all over the world, but I just accidentally traveled here."
Zhang Yuan said.
The man nodded and said, "There has been a major incident in Chujiang City recently. There have been murder cases one after another. No one from the Six Gates and the military can solve them. Then he issued a notice, inviting heroes from Daliang Kingdom to help solve the case together. We all came after hearing the news."
"I see."
Zhang Yuan suddenly realized in his heart.
His face suddenly changed.
The things in Chujiang City are obviously caused by ghosts. No matter how many of these people from the martial arts world come, they may be difficult to deal with them.
Poor these people are still kept in the dark.
He really wanted to tell these people the truth, but he was afraid that they would not believe it if they told it.
Zhang Yuan was confused.
"Young hero, are there anything else to ask?"
The man asked.
"It's gone, you guys are careful. According to the news I have received, the murders in the city are not that simple, and were committed by several extremely terrifying masters."
Zhang Yuan said.
"Thank you for your reminder."
Several heroes from the world clasped their fists solemnly.
Zhang Yuan nodded and watched them leave.
His heart changes.
It seems that the yamen can't hold on anymore!
Facing unknown ghosts, human power seems so fragile at this time.
After touching the belly that was chirping again, Zhang Yuan no longer thought about it, touched a wealthy family again, and ate all over the place, and then appeared lightly on the street.
At this time, the last sunset was completely blocked by the mountains.
In Chujiang City, it fell into darkness again.
The streets were silent, with no trace of pedestrians.
Suddenly, Zhang Yuan's eyes narrowed and he noticed a curled figure not far away...
The man shivered, hugged his body tightly, and hugged under a big tree, as if he was afraid of something.
Zhang Yuan became curious and walked over.
There have been major events in Chujiang City, and no one dares to stay on the streets at night. Why does this person dare to squat here alone? Is he as homeless as him?
"Brother, are you hungry? Do you want to invite you to eat?"
He patted the man on the shoulder.
It’s all about accumulating merits!
Helping others is better than building a seven-level pagoda!
but!
The moment Zhang Yuan's palm touched the man's shoulder, the man screamed in shock, and fell to the ground in a hurry, saying terrified: "Don't kill me!"
What?
Zhang Yuan was a little stunned.
Could this be a fool?
He smiled and said, "Brother, your surname is yours? Have you eaten? The community has brought warmth. I want to thank the Party and the country for being a good citizen who abides by the law."
The man was a little dazed by his words, slowly raised his head and looked at Zhang Yuan.
When he saw that it was a young beggar, his face calmed down slightly, sat up from the ground, became silent again, and then curled up under the tree without moving.
Zhang Yuan became more and more curious, "Brother, tell me, is there anything I can help you?"
He was idle too.
One is to accumulate merit value, and the other is to find someone to relieve boredom.
The man glanced at Zhang Yuan again, and then continued to remain silent.
"I'm sure I'll show you a unique skill, called "Big Stone with bare hands."
Zhang Yuan raised a palm, vented his internal energy, and suddenly slapped hard on the ground.
Bang!
A dull sound!
The ground trembled slightly, and the hard bluestone slab was shattered by him on the spot.
Zhang Yuan grabbed a handful, blew hard, and flew around.
"How is this move?"
He was almost intoxicated by his palm power.
The man's originally dull gaze suddenly revealed a trace of light, and he looked at Zhang Yuan with a slight excitement, and said, "You ```You know how to kung fu?"
"I'm not sure about it. In the following, I call it timely rain Zhang Yuan, who is dedicated to helping the poor and dangerous. Brother, what do you call it?"
Zhang Yuan's face turned right and he spoke.
The man suddenly grabbed Zhang Yuan's hands and said excitedly: "Young Master Zhang, save me, please save me."
Haha, there is indeed a merit value.
"What trouble did you encounter, let's be honest."
Zhang Yuan said with a smile.
The man's face turned pale, he quickly organized his language, and his whole body trembled.
It turned out that he was the shopkeeper of the East Street Satin Shop, Ge Biao.
After his wife suddenly disappeared that day, he reported to the official in time, but a few days later, he found her under her bed.
When his wife found her, maggots were already on half of her face, but she was still alive.
At that time, she was surrounded by dead mice and dead chickens, which were all terrible.
When she found her, she was reluctant to come out from under the bed.
In the end, several officers and soldiers moved away from the big bed and forced her out.
But after finding it out, her woman made a wave of ghost-like screams, then her whole body turned black, pus and blood flowed out, and in a blink of an eye, only a pair of bones remained.
He was by his side at that time and almost pissed his pants in fear.
Finally, the county magistrate personally explained that it was caused by the demons in the martial arts world, so he was a little calmer.
I thought it would be over like that.
But the next few days will be a nightmare!
Because the next night, when he returned home, he found that his dead woman had actually come back.
There were still maggots squirming on half of the face, and no abnormalities were seen in other places.
He was shocked at the time and immediately ran out to report to the official overnight.
At that time, the officials went out urgently, grabbed his wife, and treated her as a demon, and directly burned her to ashes with a fire.
But on the third night, his wife appeared again, still with maggots on her face, as if she couldn't remember anything about the previous incident. When facing him, she was polite and generous.
He was so scared that he ran out to report to the official again.
The government also felt that it was extraordinary and dispatched a large number of officers and soldiers, and this time he escorted his wife directly to the prison.
I thought that she would be shocked by going to the prison, but on the fourth night, her woman appeared again.
He was almost broken.
Every time his wife appears, he will report to an official.
Every time they report to the official, one person will die afterwards.
So far, he has reported to the official position seven times in a row, and he is the only one who dies in his family.
And his wife is still intact!
Now he doesn't even dare to go back home!
He had completely collapsed and now he didn't even dare to sleep.
When he closed his eyes, he saw his wife's face with maggots halfway.
"Save me, please save me, Young Master Zhang, as long as you can save me, I can give you all my belongings, I beg you!"
To be continued...
