Ming Dynasty Emperor System

Zhu Houzhao, who has already arrived in the city, naturally cannot know that the group of fledgling young men and women are planning to find someone to cause trouble for him, but even if he knew, Zhu Houzhao probably wouldn't care.

"Hey, three more people died in Chengnan yesterday, and they turned into mummies as before."

"If this continues, sooner or later everyone in the city will be killed by monsters."

"Why don't you think the prefect wants us to leave the city?"

"It's not that the monsters are afraid of sneaking in and out of the city and going to other cities to cause harm to people. But doesn't the governor know that the monsters are leaving? How can the soldiers stop them?"

"I think that's just an excuse. The governor is probably afraid that the people in the city will run away too much and the king will blame them."

It seems that no one is allowed in or out of this city, and the civilians in the city are very frightened, and many of them are talking about monsters killing people.

"The monster killed people, and the cause was known all over the city. Didn't the prefect ask the monks for help? Or maybe the monster was too powerful, and the monks all died here."

Anyway, he was idle, so Zhu Houzhao decided to go and see what kind of monster was causing trouble, not to mention that he had to kill six true immortal level monsters and four mysterious immortal level monsters to complete the task. Maybe this monster was strong enough.

Zhu Houzhao used the art of change to turn into a wisp of breeze and flew towards the morgue in the city.

"This monster is really scary. Is this the dozens?"

"There are two No.30s, what's wrong?"

"This monster will kill three or four people a day. If this continues for a few years, there will be no living people in the entire city."

"I think you are scared and confused. In the entire city, many people die every day, and many people are born at the same time. The number of people the monster eats in a day is less than a fraction of the number of people who die normally.

Of course, it is true that if the monster is not caught, there will be no one in this city sooner or later. "

Zhu Houzhao was not interested in listening. The two guard guys chatted about the future of this small town and went directly into the morgue.

There were only about a dozen corpses in the morgue, and after Zhu Houzhao's spiritual exploration, only three or four of them were sucked into mummies as described by the group outside, and the others died for other reasons.

There were not 32 mummies as the two guards said. Zhu Houzhao probably had the mummies buried because the eunuch thought they were occupying a position.

"Well, after being sucked dry, she still looks like a female monster."

Zhu Houzhao checked all the mummies and found no wounds. It seemed that they had all been drained of their essence and died.

Moreover, these mummies are all men, and it is basically certain that they were done by female monsters. After all, there are generally not such heavy-handed male monsters who specifically look for men to absorb their essence.

"South of the city? Let's go take a look tonight."

……

Due to the presence of monsters, most civilians in the city returned home after nightfall and did not dare to go out. Only a few people who were not afraid of death dared to go out to seek death, and then they really died.

"Little beauty, don't run away, come and have fun with us."

"No, help! Help!"

"In the dead of night, besides people like us, who else is running around on the street? My little beauty, if you don't want a few more people to come and share you with us, just say less."

Zhu Houzhao was walking on the street when he suddenly heard several voices.

"The whole city is in panic. How can a woman go out so late at night? You must be that monster."

In ancient times, few people went out alone. What's more, when there was a monster disaster, it was even more weird for a woman to go out alone. Although it was not impossible for a woman to go out alone, Zhu Houzhao believed that it was a monster.

"Wait a minute, you three scum, how dare you molest a decent woman, I will do justice to you today."

"You bastard, you are nosy, beat him up."

"Humph."

Just when Zhu Houzhao was about to go find the female monster, an upright man confronted the three rogues, and soon the three rogues were beaten until they screamed.

"Sir, we are too blind to see the mountains. Please spare us your time."

"Yes, yes, we don't dare anymore."

"I have an 80-year-old mother and a three-year-old child. Can you spare our lives?"

"You guys, let's go. If you do it again and I see you, you will know the consequences."

"Thank you uncle, thank you uncle."

"I don't know if this guy is a Confucian or a Mohist. Isn't he rushing to die?"

Hundreds of schools of thought also exist in this world, and compared to illusory immortals, people from hundreds of schools of thought are more popular in the mortal world. After all, after the Spring and Autumn Period in this world, the path to immortality is not so easy.

Among the hundreds of scholars, those who like to meddle most and have the ability to meddle are the disciples of Confucianism and Mohism. But at present, this man has obviously only learned martial arts and the mentality of drawing a sword to help when the road is rough, and has not learned the wisdom of seeing everything.

Of course, we can't rule out that the guy's mind just didn't change for a while and he was deceived.

Zhu Houzhao transformed into a middle-aged Taoist priest and walked towards the site of the incident.

Soon Zhu Houzhao saw a young man wearing a white Confucian shirt, supporting a frail young woman to greet her.

"Sir, your hall has been dark and bloody lately. It's best to go home as soon as possible and don't go out at night."

"Master Taoist, thank you for your kindness. Our Saint Kong said that as long as you have great righteousness in your heart, you will not be afraid of all evil spirits."

"Besides, it's really not safe for this girl to be alone on the street. I need to send her home first."

"Why don't you take her back to your home?"

"This is unacceptable. Taking another girl's family back to your own home for no reason is not what a gentleman would do."

"Well, Pindao won't advise you."

Zhu Houzhao found that this guy seemed to be a real gentleman, so he planned to save his life. However, since this guy didn't listen to the advice, let him suffer a little bit.

Zhu Houzhao slowly disappeared into the night, and the Confucian disciple supported the woman turned into a monster and walked in the opposite direction of Zhu Houzhao.

But neither the Confucian disciple nor the monster felt a ray of breeze blowing behind them.
