Another man with shifty, rat-like eyes grinned slyly.
A few nights ago, when they passed by here, they saw Steward Li from the Marshal's Mansion secretly pulling a handcart over and burying something here.
They immediately sensed something was amiss.
Considering that Xu Dashuai had found many valuable items through tomb raiding and treasure hunting in recent years, they couldn't help but wonder if there were some shady treasures hidden down there.
In order not to alert the enemy, they waited a few days before sneaking over to dig around.
Surprisingly, after a few shovelfuls, something actually appeared.
"Don't just stand there, come and lend a hand!"
Underneath the dug-out soil, there was a dark object wrapped in a black cloth.
The two of them dared not act rashly. Each of them grabbed one end from the left and the other from the right, and carefully pulled him out.
But to my surprise, this thing is so big.
They're almost at the same level as them.
"Oh my god!" One of them swallowed hard, as if realizing something terrible. "This...this can't be a corpse, can it?"
He smelled a foul odor emanating from under the black cloth.
“Tsk…” The other person obviously had the same suspicion, but quickly dismissed the idea. “Never mind, loosen the cloth. Even if it’s a corpse, it might be wearing some expensive jewelry.”
In this world, nothing is more terrible than poverty.
Even if it's a corpse, they're determined to find something of value in it!
Even a gold tooth!
Finally, after a long struggle, the two managed to tear the black cloth off.
Under the moonlight, a completely decomposed corpse, its face long since lost, was revealed.
"Ugh—it stinks!"
The two unconsciously pinched their noses and frowned in disgust.
The pungent smell almost made them vomit.
But now that things had come to this, they had no reason to stop, so they had no choice but to continue enduring the stench and searching through the corpses.
But at this moment...
"Ok?"
"Did that corpse blink just now?"
The man with shifty, beady eyes was somewhat taken aback, cautiously examining the corpse's eyes.
He thought he was imagining things.
Unexpectedly, the corpse lying on the ground sat up abruptly the next second.
The corpse suddenly opened its eyes, revealing a pair of crimson pupils.
His entire body emanated a suffocating black aura!
"The dead have come back to life!"
"There's a ghost!"
The two of them collapsed onto the ground, their legs trembling, completely powerless, and they didn't have time to turn around and run away.
0 ······Requesting flowers···· ··
They watched in disbelief as the corpse sitting on the ground slowly rose to its feet in an extremely bizarre posture.
It's like it's floating.
歘——
Suddenly the corpse opened its mouth, and a large cloud of black mist emerged, from which countless flies and mosquitoes swarmed out!
The sight terrified the two of them; their minds went blank, and they even forgot to scream.
Soon, the corpse's red eyes noticed them on the ground...
Click click click——
The bones on the corpse made strange noises and were walking towards them step by step.
"Help...help!"
In the dead of night, someone's cries for help echoed from the mountaintop.
But soon, everything returned to calm, as if nothing had ever happened.
……
The next morning, news of the deaths in the town reached the Marshal's Mansion.
Xu Dashuai, who was preparing for today's wedding banquet, had no choice but to put down his work and rush out to check after hearing the news.
Su Feng was also somewhat interested in this matter. After exchanging a glance with Jiang Dalong, he followed them.
Anne, on the other hand, stayed at the mansion to rest.
A crowd had gathered at the entrance of the town, all talking about something.
"Get out of the way!"
Soldiers cleared a path, dispersing the crowd and making way for Commander Xu.
Upon seeing the commander, the townspeople all nodded respectfully in greeting.
"What exactly happened?" Commander Xu shouted as he pushed through the crowd to the center, a military baton tucked under his arm.
His expression froze when he saw the two corpses on the ground.
There lay two men's corpses on the ground, shriveled up like deflated balloons.
His body was completely dried up, all the blood had been drained from his body, and his eye sockets were bulging out. His death was extremely gruesome.
0 ...... ....
"Reporting to the Commander!"
A soldier stepped forward to report the situation.
The incident was quite simple: two townspeople who were out hunting found two people lying on a slope.
Upon closer inspection, they discovered two corpses. They were so frightened that they rushed back to town to report to the patrolling soldiers, and then together they carried the bodies back.
"Hmm..." Commander Xu glanced at it a few times, then waved his hand dismissively, "They must have been two idiots who went hunting in the mountains in the middle of the night and were attacked by wild animals..."
"Notify the mortuary to collect the body, and then find the family to come and claim it. That's it!"
After giving a few casual instructions, Commander Xu turned to leave.
He never cared about the lives or deaths of the townspeople, nor did he bother to find out the truth.
Moreover, he had even more important things to do!
Today is his big day, how could he waste time on such trivial matters?
Faced with Commander Xu's perfunctory attitude, the townspeople around seemed to have gotten used to it and dared not speak out against it.
Su Feng watched quietly from the side, not intending to interfere.
However, this does not mean that he agrees with Marshal Xu's conclusion...
Wild animal attack?
How can it be……
Even a blind person could see that there were no signs of violent attack on the body; at least the clothes were intact, and there were no external injuries on the head or hands.
Apart from……
"please wait."
Just then, a voice came from the crowd, causing Commander Xu to freeze in his tracks and stop in his tracks.
He turned around, looking for the person who had spoken with an unhappy expression.
How dare they make him wait? They're obviously tired of living!
Suddenly, a figure emerged from the crowd, taking light steps, and squatted down beside the corpse.
"This couldn't have been an attack by a wild animal..."
This person was unkempt; his hair looked like it hadn't been styled in a long time, as messy as a bird's nest...
His clothes were tattered, and he had a messy stubble on his face, making him look no different from the homeless.
However, Su Feng recognized the person at a glance.
"Oh..."
Su Feng involuntarily raised an eyebrow.
Isn't this Qinghai, the exorcist from the story of the demon-eating fetus?
“As you can see, there are no other wounds on the surface of the corpses, except here…” Qinghai turned the head of one of the corpses to one side, exposing the back of the neck.
Two dentition holes were shockingly found on the carotid artery in the neck!
It felt like something was forcefully biting at me, piercing my blood vessels, and then constantly sucking blood from them!
Now the entire wound is swollen, and its surface is pitch black, as if it were covered with a piece of black mud.
For a moment, the surrounding crowd gasped and began chattering amongst themselves.
