I Have Unparalleled Comprehension

Chapter 36 Marks of strangulation

If Supervisor Tiansi comes, let's see how Supervisor Tiansi handles it.

From Liu Catkin's perspective, this person might be in trouble.

Killing the Jisheng Cult and the Blacksmith and his wife was a righteous act.

At least that's how it seems to Liu Catkin.

The Jisheng Cult and the Ming Blacksmith couple have done countless bloody things, and they have accumulated a lot of blood debts.

When this master killed them, Liuxu would applaud him, but the official of Supervising Tiansi also died, and things turned sour.

With Jian Tiansi's temperament, he would probably investigate this matter to the end.

"I don't know why he killed the official..." Liu Xu rubbed her forehead, thinking so much, her head felt slightly swollen.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Xu decided to put this matter aside for the time being. It would only be a few days until the people from Supervisor Tiansi arrived.

The night is already deep.

Catkin blew out the oil lamp, lay on the bed, and gradually fell asleep.

The next day.

Xu Bai got up early and went to the front yard after washing.

In the courtyard, there are already escorts practicing their moves.

Although those in their line of work only know a few farming skills, they still need to practice every day.

Some things will become rusty if you don't practice them, which can be fatal at critical moments.

Seeing Xu Bai coming out, several escorts hurriedly said hello.

Xu Bai nodded, told them to continue practicing, and went out to eat alone.

The streets are still bustling with people, and there is an endless stream of people. The atmosphere of the market and the noise are intertwined, making it extremely lively.

In front of the stall, Xiaoyue is busy.

"After so long, the door is finally open."

Xu Bai walked over and as soon as he sat down, he saw Xiaoyue trotting up to him.

"Brother, are you still the same?" Xiaoyue lowered her head and was in a bad mood.

Xu Bai wanted to touch his head as usual, but when he saw Xiaoyue's expression, he frowned.

"Something happened at home?"

Ever since he came here to eat, Xu Bai has gradually become addicted.

Xiaoyue is very innocent. After all, she is a six or seven-year-old girl, and she lives in a country similar to the ancient Dai Viet. She often maintains the unique temperament of a little girl.

Lively, but timid.

When you meet an acquaintance, you will be as innocent as a chirping swallow, and when you meet a stranger, you will become like a quail.

People all like beautiful things, and Xu Bai is the same.

Since he came to this world, he has had too much blood on his hands.

Even if he knew that these people would die if they offended him.

But Xiaoyue's innocence actually made Xu Bai's mood brighter.

So when he saw Xiaoyue looking downcast today, he asked casually.

"It's okay, big brother, just wait a moment and I'll get you some food." Xiaoyue still lowered her head, said something, then turned and left.

According to his usual temperament, he must have held his head high at this moment, looking like he was begging for a pat on the head.

Xu Bai touched his chin, stared at Xiaoyue's back, and secretly thought something strange.

In this case, something must have happened.

And it's not a small matter.

With a little girl's temperament, she forgets little things in a short while, which is very abnormal now.

The more Xu Bai thought about it, the more he felt there was something wrong. Before he could think about it, a gust of wind blew by.

Looking along the wind, a woman in white passed by him.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a woman in white. Xu Bai was slightly surprised to meet her this time.

"Xiaoyue, here are two buns to pack." LiuXu stood in front of the stall and said.

In addition to Xiaoyue, there are also Xiaoyue's parents in this stall.

A middle-aged couple, plain in appearance, were busy in front of the stall, Xiaoyue was in charge of running errands.

"Okay, Sister Liu." Xiaoyue was still in a low mood.

At this time, Liuxu also saw that something was wrong.

"What's wrong with you, Xiaoyue?"

"It's nothing, Sister Liu, maybe I've caught the cold recently." Xiao Yue forced herself to smile.

Children can't lie.

Liuxu took Baozi, pulled Xiaoyue aside, and whispered.

On the other side, the middle-aged couple knew Liu Xu's identity and didn't say anything. The middle-aged woman served the food.

"Sir, please take your time."

Xu Bai quickly served the buns. He took a bite and tried to prick up his ears, trying to eavesdrop.

Unfortunately, the street noise made it difficult to hear clearly.

After a while, Liuxu left, and Xiaoyue began to be busy again.

Xu Bai thought for a while, and after finishing the buns, he called Xiaoyue over to pay.

Xiaoyue hurriedly ran closer, still holding her head.

Xu Bai put the money in Xiaoyue's palm and asked: "Xiaoyue, tell your brother, what happened?"

"It's okay..." Xiaoyue forced a smile.

Somehow, two lines of tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

She couldn't control it and felt very uncomfortable.

"Xiaoyue... Xiaoyue is going to die."

Xu Bai's eyes froze and he frowned: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Really, big brother, Xiaoyue dreamed of grandma a few days ago. Grandma said that she would take Xiaoyue to her place, and then she felt listless every day. The old man said that if you dream of being invited by your deceased relatives, you will die..." Xiaoyue While crying, he kept wiping his tears with his hands.

At this time, Xu Bai discovered something unusual.

There was a strangulation mark on Xiaoyue's neck.

It's not very obvious, and you can't tell it at all if you don't look carefully.

"Brother, Xiaoyue needs to go out for a while, so I won't talk to you anymore." Xiaoyue lowered her head and muttered.

Xu Bai didn't ask any more questions, his eyes did not leave Xiaoyue's neck.

Looking at Xiaoyue like this, she didn't seem to want to say anything.

There's no point in asking.

After Xiaoyue said something, she returned to the stall and was talking to the middle-aged woman.

In front of the stall, the middle-aged couple nodded to Xiaoyue, as if they agreed to Xiaoyue's request.

Then, Satsuki left.

Xu Bai thought for a while, stood up, held the handle of the ghost head sword, and followed Xiaoyue.

The streets were lively, but Xiaoyue walked very slowly, as if she had lost her soul.

After walking several streets, Xiaoyue walked into a remote alley.

Standing in the alley, Xiaoyue suddenly stopped.

Xu Bai followed behind and frowned slightly when he saw this.

Beside Xiaoyue, the woman in white suddenly appeared and touched Xiaoyue's head.

"Sister Liu, can my disease really be cured?" Xiaoyue raised her head.

"It can be cured." Liuxu squatted down and touched the marks on Xiaoyue's neck: "You believe me."

Because his back was to Xu Bai, when Liuxu squatted down, the lower part of his white clothes was propped up.

Just the act of squatting down is mesmerizing.

Xiaoyue lowered her head again, feeling very bad, and kept wiping tears.

"Let's go, don't do anything stupid, take me to your house, my sister can help you." Liuxu stood up, took Xiaoyue's hand, and left along the alley.

Xu Bai stood there, lost in thought.

He placed his hand on the handle of the Ghost Head Sword and did not let go for a moment.

Hearing the conversation between the two people, he already had thoughts.

Xiaoyue seemed to be ill, but the marks on her neck were very strange.

It's like having a rope wrapped around it.

This woman just said don't do stupid things, what does this mean?

"Look again."

Xu Bai stepped out of the alley and continued to follow quietly.
