Lonely Immortal

Lin Daotou and Zhang Yin stood together by the river. This was the only river in the county, the Wangfeng River. Downstream of this river was a large plain area, leading to the prosperous Kyoto.

Lin Captou and Zhang Yin have been standing here for a while. They have not found any useful clues. So many people have died in the county, causing panic. The people are talking about it. Lin Captou is now under great pressure.

Moreover, all the members of his family are dead, and he also wants to find the murderer, but there are no clues at the moment. How can he catch the murderer?

"Mr. Zhang, what do you think of this matter?"

Lin Zhiping could only ask Zhang Yin for help. In his opinion, Zhang Yin was the only one who could help him. The county magistrate had already learned about the matter, and the magistrate asked him to solve the case as soon as possible, otherwise he would be held accountable.

But at this moment, Lin Zhiping seemed to have regained his composure, and he had a bit of the magnanimity and calmness that a head catcher should have.

Zhang Yin stroked his beard, looked at the rolling river, and then said: "In my opinion, this murderer must be related to you, Mr. Lin."

"Oh? How do you say this?" Lin Zhiping asked, pretending to be surprised.

In fact, Lin Zhiping had probably guessed what was going on. Although there were no clues, the identity of the deceased was somewhat intriguing. None of the previous deceased were locals from the county. But later, Lin Zhiping and his family were murdered. This Isn’t it related to Lin Zhiping?

This murderer should have come to threaten Lin Zhiping. Maybe he had some grudge with Lin Zhiping. He killed people from other counties and dumped their bodies here. Then he left Lin Zhiping confused and then openly killed Lin Zhiping's family.

This is definitely a kind of revenge against Lin Zhiping, and it is even possible that Lin Zhiping will be the next target.

But Zhang Yin didn't go into such detail. He just briefly talked about the situation. After hearing this, Lin Zhiping's face changed slightly, and then he said angrily: "Humph, if this murderer is so brave, then I will Let him learn how to die!"

"Sir, please don't be careless. It's better to be careful." Zhang Yin was still a little worried about the other party, but he felt it was better not to get involved in this matter. Anyway, he just took some public funds from the county government and usually worked for the county government. He doesn't have to risk his family's fortune and life by doing something.

"Well, I'll be careful." Lin Zhiping nodded and said.

"Okay, then I'll leave first. If I find anything else, I'll take a look at the situation." Zhang Yin thought and hurried back. He was dragged into the water by Lin Zhiping. He didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing. Of homicide.

This time, Lin Zhiping did not stop him, but he said: "Then how will Mr. Zhang deal with the county magistrate?"

"This... I think it is better to report this matter to Kyoto. This is not something we can solve."

Zhang Yin said that what he meant was to ask Kyoto to send people to investigate and take responsibility, and to ask the county magistrate not to bear this responsibility alone. This is also a good idea.

Seeing this, Lin Zhiping nodded and said nothing more, while Zhang Yin hugged his fists and resigned.

Lin Zhiping stood alone by the river, wondering what he was thinking. After standing for a long time, he also turned back.

It seemed that there wasn't much left at this point. He was going back to hold a funeral for his family. A few of his men came over to help. Seeing that Lin Zhiping seemed to have regained his composure, they naturally comforted him. Lin Zhiping didn't say anything more, but just remained silent. to arrange the funeral arrangements.

It was night, the weather was getting colder, and Lin Zhiping was the only one left in the entire Lin Mansion to watch the wake alone. He was burning paper money, and in the night wind, his expression was gloomy, but there seemed to be nothing strange about him. At this time, Bai Lian Then someone walked out, and this person was clearly Qingyao , she swayed to Lin Zhiping, then squatted down, raised her hand and put it on Lin Zhiping's shoulder, and said softly: "Sir, this matter is really wronging you. It's all Yao'er's fault..."

As she spoke, tears streamed down her cheeks.

But Lin Zhiping didn't say a word. It seemed that he knew that now was not a good time to talk about these things. He just continued to burn paper money. The scraps of paper money flew everywhere. The house was desolate, but there was a gnawing sound around him. This sound was creepy.

Then, suddenly a strange and hoarse voice came: "Sir, what are you going to do next?"

Lin Zhiping turned around and saw that Qingyao, who was dressed in green, had turned into a monster at some point. Her monster appearance was a green face with fangs. She didn't look human at all, more like a pure monster.

Seeing her like this, although it was not the first time for Lin Zhiping to see her, he couldn't help but his Adam's apple rolled and cold sweat overflowed slightly on his forehead, but he still said: "You don't need to worry about this matter, I will take care of it." ”

"Well, that's good, otherwise the slave family will be arrested and interrogated. Your Excellency must save the slave family and protect the slave family..." Qingyao continued, but her strange and hoarse voice was not as soft as her original voice. So touching, coupled with the terrifying appearance of her green face and fangs, Lin Zhiping couldn't bear to look at her any longer, so he simply turned his head.

Qing Yao showed a strange smile, then buried her head and continued to eat the corpse. The corpse made a rattling sound as she chewed it, and dirty blood flowed all over the ground. The smell of blood filled the sky, and Lin Zhiping felt sick.

He stood up and said, "I'll go around and see if there's anything unusual."

After saying that, he left, leaving Qingyao to enjoy the deliciousness of the corpse alone, while Qingyao gnawed the corpse crazily. These corpses were Lin Zhiping's wife and children, but Lin Zhiping did not stop him and allowed Qingyao to enjoy.

A dark cloud passed across the sky, blocking the bright moon, and the surrounding area became darker and darker. Only the firelight from the burning paper money illuminated everything here. Qingyao's terrifying monster body was buried on the ground and was rising and falling, and the sound of gnawing continued to be heard. When he came out, the whole yard was like a hell scene.

At this time, there was a person standing on the wall. This person was Zhang Zhiwen. He watched all this silently. Then he jumped up slightly and disappeared into the night. Qingyao seemed to have found something, she raised her head suddenly When she started to look, her eyes were full of violence, but she found nothing, so she showed doubts, but soon, she continued to chew on the corpse.

On the street, a man was walking alone. He was Lin Zhiping. He was dressed in black, with his face covered, and he was walking quickly in the quiet night. At this moment, there was no one on the street, and the watchman came. The sound of the clock was faintly heard, echoing in the streets and alleys.

Suddenly, Lin Zhiping stopped, and then he jumped into an inn. This inn was a place where merchants traveling from east to west, north and south often stayed. At this moment, Chen Jifeng and his daughter happened to be in the inn. Rest.

They finally arrived at Wangfengling today, and they had to hurry up and go to town tomorrow to find his brother. His brother's daughter was getting married and was waiting for them to attend the wedding.

But at this moment, a dark shadow passed by outside, but Chen Jifeng and his daughter were unaware of it. After the dark shadow passed by, it appeared in a corner. Then he seemed to open the window paper, and then a faint fragrance surged out. Come in.

Not long after, Chen Jifeng and his daughter were knocked unconscious one after another. With a creak, the door was opened from the outside, and a man in black walked in. This was Lin Zhiping. Lin Zhiping looked around and found that nothing was missing. He stepped forward to check on the situation of Chen Jifeng, his father and his daughter.

The three of them were completely unconscious. Lin Zhiping took out a dagger from his waist. He stepped forward step by step, intending to end the lives of the father and daughter, but at this time a voice suddenly came.

"Captain Lin, it's so late, why are you here?"

As soon as the sound appeared, Lin Zhiping jumped to the side like a rabbit whose tail was stepped on. He looked around in shock, looking for the target in horror, but he found nothing.

"Who?!" Lin Zhiping could only shout in a low voice.

But there was no response from the surroundings, as if he had heard wrong just now, but Lin Zhiping was already shocked, and he did not dare to take action. He carefully exited step by step, but at this time, the door behind him closed with a creak. , this time, Lin Zhiping was completely frightened. He pulled out the big knife with a clang. The big knife was still shining coldly in the dark night. He glanced around, but still found nothing.

At this time, the candlelight in the room suddenly went out.

Then I heard a bang, as if something was thrown to the ground, and then I heard a scream. Then I saw the door being kicked, and then Lin Zhiping staggered out of the room. He ran out of it and disappeared into the night in a few leaps.

People in the inn heard the commotion and came out one after another to see what was going on. Only then did everyone realize that something happened in the room of Chen Jifeng and his daughter. Fortunately, the three people's lives were safe. It was just that they were knocked unconscious, and everyone They started to criticize how the inn was doing with security, and the inn started arguing with the guests...

On the other side, Lin Zhiping was walking quickly through the alley. His eyes were full of shock, but he had to look behind him from time to time, but there was no one behind him, but he seemed to feel that someone was chasing him from behind. , he had to flee forward crazily.

Not sure how much time had passed, Lin Zhiping fled out of the county. Only then did he feel the aura chasing behind him slowly recede. At this moment, he realized that he should be safe.

But he was not happy at all, because the other party actually found out his identity. So, who was the other party? Do you know he killed someone? Do you know that what happened these days was all caused by him?

That's right, during these days, he killed many people for Qingyao, just for Qingyao to eat people. Naturally, Qingyao couldn't eat people in a brothel, otherwise the government would catch her immediately, and then she would have no choice but to With the help of Lin Zhiping's protection, he can barely survive.

If Lin Zhiping wants to get Qingyao, he must keep killing people. Feeding her blood every day is not feasible. Lin Zhiping doesn't want to die. How can he bear the bloodletting every day? Naturally, it is better to kill others than to die yourself!

It's just that he acted too hastily. What if he killed someone and left his body in the wilderness? Then at least bury it, right? Unfortunately, he did not have time to bury these corpses, so he could only throw them into the river. Unexpectedly, the river had recently risen in tide, and after throwing the corpses, they were all washed back to the shore. At this time, the people in the county came to report to the official.

Reporting to the official was a big deal, so he naturally didn't dare to kill people at will, but Qingyao wanted to eat people every night, so he had to kill people, otherwise Qingyao would definitely die. Anyway, he believed Qingyao's words , and in fact it seems to be the case. Qingyao kills and eats people, then returns to normal, and then sleeps with him day and night. That is quite pleasant.

For this little thing, he killed people. Not only did he kill people, he also killed everyone in his family with his own hands. This is really crazy, but he became crazy. He killed his wife and children with his own hands just to do such a little thing with Qingyao.

Since ancient times, all kinds of love have resulted in death. This is normal. Don't underestimate this thing. It is very powerful. Even someone like Lin, who has been licking blood on the edge of a knife for many years, can't withstand such temptation.

Tonight, he is going out to kill again. He wants to get reserve food, and his target is the merchants in the inn. Therefore, he randomly chooses people in a room as his target.

These people are not locals, so he can be clear of suspicion. Moreover, he killed his own family, and he seems to be cleared of suspicion. The death of his family has brought him safety, and also allowed Qingyao, the monster, to lurk in the Lin Mansion with peace of mind.

This was Lin Zhiping's plan, and his approach was quite covert. He did not tell the county magistrate about the report. He could not fight, so he would just quit. At most, he would take Qingyao and leave his hometown...

In short, he was completely desperate for that little thing, and Zhang Yin naturally would not say much, but after he returned, he still mentioned the matter to Zhang's mother. The murder case in the county had long been spread all over the streets and alleys, so it was not surprising.

Another strange thing was that Captain Lin did not lead people to patrol the county at night to maintain the public security of the county, and there was no curfew, because this was originally created by him. He was in this position and it was easiest for him to succeed.

And Zhang Yin said these things, and Zhang Zhiwen still heard them. Originally, Zhang Zhiwen was stupid, and he was a fool, but for some reason, it seemed that he came back to life again, and this time, he came back with an intact body, and the broken leg was almost healed.

Therefore, he came to the county town overnight. He wanted to see what happened here. On the way, he thought about many things, including Qingyao.

He had a vague feeling that this so-called courtesan Qingyao, whether she lied, whether she really met the so-called Taoist, and whether she killed her master monster... Even, could this Qingyao be the so-called master in disguise!

If so, then things become interesting. He was actually played by a monster.

This monster has nothing to do with him, but Qingyao seems to have a great connection with him. But if so, then Qingyao seems to have been killed, or imprisoned somewhere.

Another thing, he met Chen Jifeng and his daughter, and Chen Jifeng and his daughter came to attend the wedding of his younger brother's daughter...
