Chapter Fourteen: Die Peacefully
The crowd was in an uproar and started to talk.
Ada also looked stunned and secretly admired.
He is worthy of being the second master, and he just wants to be like a real person.
Five Poison Boys?
Just listening to this nickname makes people convinced. First, it is definitely poisonous, and second, there is a baby's crying sound, so it is easy for people to believe it.
"Brothers, what you have to do now is to stay on your posts. If you see any suspicious person in the city these two days, you must report it as soon as possible. It is very likely that they are the accomplices of the Five Poisons Boy. This Five Poisons Boy is my elder brother's enemy. He has always wanted to dismantle our Qinglong Gang. We must not let them succeed. Anyone who offends our Qinglong Gang will not have a good end!"
Qi Yun shouted loudly.
The crowd shouted and the morale was high.
Qi Yun nodded and left here.
After leaving a few people to deal with the bodies, the rest returned to their posts.
Qi Yun was not calm inside. With his current strength, can he compete with that demon?
No matter what, the demon must kill the demon before it kills again.
It is not his style to sit and wait for death. He will prepare to watch tonight to see if the demon will continue to appear.
"How are A Er and Sun Debiao's injuries?"
Qi Yun asked.
"I'm afraid it will take several days to recover completely."
Ada replied.
"Okay, you will gather all the people who have been to Zhaojiazhuang that day and ask them to ambush at night and stay with me to watch over the night. As for the others, they will be sent to other places for the time being."
Qi Yun said.
Those who have experienced the Zhaojiazhuang incident have become much more courageous, so using them is an excellent choice.
Ada was shocked and nodded, "Yes, Second Master."
He immediately went down to make arrangements.
However, shortly after he left, a gang member hurriedly ran over from outside, looking flustered and gasping, with a look of horror in his eyes, and said, "Second Master, it's not good."
"Well, what happened again?"
Qi Yun's eyes froze.
"Hongyunlou, Hongyunlou everyone died, not only them, but also on one street, several other wealthy families... are all like this."
The man said horrified.
"What? Take me to see!"
Qi Yun was shocked.
The gangster rushed to lead the way.
Hongyun Tower is a brothel. Although it is not the property of their Qinglong Gang, it is a place covered by their Qinglong Gang. The madam will send monthly payments every month. The Qinglong Gang sent twelve thugs to stay in it. In the past, no one dared to cause trouble.
Why would something happen to Hongyun Tower be there?
Along the way, Qi Yun quickly learned about the situation from him.
The way these people die is different from that of Manager He, Master Li, Zhao Hu and others. When these people die, they feel like they are asleep, with a peaceful expression and motionless expression.
Someone was going to come to have fun this morning, but after entering, no one came out to entertain him. The man was furious and broke into the backyard. Only then did he find that the madam and the turtle man were all dead.
In horror, he hurriedly reported to the official. After the government arrived, he soon found girls in the room, and all the guests were silent. When he died, his face was still rosy, but when he lit up his breath and heartbeat, he had no reaction at all.
In addition to their Hongyun Tower, there are several inns next to them, and the taverns are all like this.
Now the entire government is in sensation, and the dead are initially liquidated, reaching 102 people.
This is an unprecedented major case in Pingyang City.
Priest Lu and Captain Zhao were all alarmed.
According to the reactions of some surviving residents around.
Last night, they seemed to hear a series of blurry sounds, as if calling for some names, but they wanted to wake up to check them, but they couldn't wake up no matter what. It was like a nightmare. It didn't disappear until this morning when the rooster cried.
Qi Yun's heart was even more difficult to calm down.
Soon, he rushed to the area of Hongyun Tower.
The prefect Lu and Captain Zhao were all here, everyone in the entire yamen came over, and even the military dispatched, with a large number of soldiers guarding nearby.
Some residents living nearby were all pale and talking.
People's hearts begin to panic, and invisible panic is spreading.
"Magistrate Lu, Captain Zhao."
After Qi Yun arrived, he bowed to see him.
"So it was Mr. Qi who arrived."
Priest Lu was a white and fat middle-aged man with two strands of beards, his face covered with sweat, and his vague expression of fear.
What he feared was not only the demons, but also whether the black veil he wore could be kept.
If so many people died, if they did not give any explanation, they would definitely be dismissal from office. If they were not done well, they would be imprisoned. It can be said that his heart would be in chaos.
"Master Lu, have you found out what you have found?"
Qi Yun asked.
"I have no clue at all. After a series of major cases, my black sha will definitely be out of my mind."
Magistrate Lu shook his head bitterly and his face was filled with sorrow.
Captain Zhao thought for a while and said, "According to what the people around him said, they all heard some vague sounds last night, but I asked many people carefully, and the sounds they heard were all different."
"Some people hear the sound of nursery rhymes, some hear the sound of hard objects shave the city wall, and some hear the sound of vague shouting, as if they are calling some name."
"I asked someone to check the city wall. There were indeed a lot of scratches in the inner wall area, like they were drawn by iron bars. However, according to the people guarding the city last night, they knew nothing last night. From the first to the second update, everyone felt dizzy and then fell into a deep sleep."
His heart was also very confused.
By now, the theory of demons has been completely deeply rooted in people's hearts, and you must believe it if you don't believe it.
After a series of strange things, even the senior captain, he felt a little unspeakable fear.
It would be fine if a fire burned dozens of people a few days ago, but now more than a hundred people have died at once. Next time, who would be sure that something would happen in the yamen? Who would dare to say that he would not die suddenly?
Qi Yun went to see the corpse. As the gang member said before, all the corpses were peaceful, with a rosy face, which was no different from falling asleep.
He carefully explored the hearts and noses of these people, but there was no movement.
Qi Yun's heart was even heavier.
The demons who attacked this time were even more terrifying than those who killed Manager He, Zhao Hu and others. This is the real killing of people is like pulling weeds.
He suddenly thought of his elder brother.
It has been several days since the eldest brother Qi Teng left. Will something happen?
The case of the Salt Field is not easy now.
But he could only pray now, because his eyes were not calm now.
As for the moving gangs, it is too early to say this now. The Qinglong Gang family has a great business, not to say that they have been moved, and it is not time to move.
Qi Yun stayed here all morning, and all the bodies were carried back by the yamen.
Everyone in Honglou Yun died and could not be opened in a short period of time, but they could just take over Honglou Yunlou openly. When the limelight is over in the future, this will be a source of wealth.
Thinking of this, Qi Yun suddenly frowned.
A fire a few days ago burned a brothel, and now another brothel is in trouble. Is brothel so easy to attract ghosts?
After all the bodies were processed, he walked towards the city wall. Soon, he came to a light gray ancient wall. The entire wall was covered with sunlight, and it was full of moss all year round.
At this moment, a large piece of messy mark appeared on this city wall, like a child's graffiti, which penetrated several inches deep into the wall, and seemed to be drawn with iron bars as thick as fingers.
Qi Yun felt it quietly, his eyes condensed.
There was a hint of unspeakable coldness, and it was extremely strange.
Just like what he felt in that alley last night!
This is…
