Lord of the Silver Crow

The town is not prosperous.

It is not a good thing to rely on hunting for a living in this era of continuous development of mechanization.

However, in this small town, more than half of the people depend on logging and hunting for a living.

Those who are smarter will capture and even domesticate some pet animals that the rich and powerful in the city will like to sell or even raise.

But it is very rare. After all, being able to capture it and being able to sell it to those rich and nobles are two different things.

Art just turned around and quickly understood the situation in this small town.

An outsider, even if he enters as a parade merchant, who was called a traveling merchant or a peddler in the Celestial Dynasty, after expressing his identity and stating that he wants to buy some special goods that are only available in this place, he quickly got it. Some people asked excitedly, but it was not so convenient to quickly understand the situation.

but

He is a gravekeeper.

After bidding farewell to several farmers who raised some livestock and poultry, Yago walked towards the location of the small shop that the locals told him.

but

Not far from him, in a few alleys, a group of hooligans, a group of young people who call themselves street gangs and gang members are gathering together.

Compared with the muddy streets full of sewage, this place looks darker, and the shadows of the low houses make them look even darker.

That's a fat sheep.

Glancing at the direction Yago was walking in, the leading young man said in a deep voice:

I heard it before, that outsider is here to buy special, special products

Special products. A person next to him whispered.

Nonsense, let me tell you! The uneducated young man growled angrily, That outsider is here to buy special products, so he must have money!

Boss, how are you going to do it?

No one thinks there is anything wrong, just thinking about when and how to do it.

They have robbed and killed outsiders more than once.

Just be careful, kill people after grabbing things, and bury them outside the town.

If you don't get caught, there's nothing wrong with it.

They have done a lot of things like killing people and stealing money.

It is not easy to kill and bury this kind of rich man who came to the town alone.

Where exactly is he going?

The leading young man asked.

Another person thought for a while: I heard earlier that they were going to a store near Archibald's house.

Archibald.

Hearing this, the young man couldn't help but gritted his teeth.

In this small town, he has no one to fear.

There are only three police detectives in the entire town.

And two of them were hired by the Archibald family, and also hired a group of wounded loggers as bodyguards. Although those old things were disabled, they were more ruthless than the other. Deli, sent by the Chibod family, had his palm chopped off by an old cripple with a logging axe, and was later locked up in the detention room of the town police station. He died of illness not long after he came out.

They are self-proclaimed gangsters, and they dare not mess with Archibald's house at all.

But fortunately, the old disabled Archibald and the police detectives will not and have no strength to trouble them. They have always done a clean job, and even if they are interrogated, there is no evidence to prove that they committed crimes.

The leading young man thought for a moment:

Later, you can tell him that there are special products on Agoqiu Street.

Age Qiu Street? What specialties are there? The subordinate couldn't help showing a puzzled look.

How would I know, you make up one to trick him.

The subordinate said with a sad face:

How to make it up

I don't care, hurry up! The young man in charge kicked the subordinate and kicked him out.

The subordinate climbed up from the ground with a sad face, wiped off the dirt on his body, and walked out of the alley without saying anything.

Among the others, one person asked:

Do you want to do it on Agochou Street?

Agochou Street is the original street of the town. The first hunters and loggers built their residences on Agochou Street, and then gradually expanded to villages and small towns.

However, now, it is quite dilapidated and almost no one lives there.

If you want to kill people and rob things, it is indeed more suitable there.

Once, they even planned to bury the body there, but they were later caught and warned by a man who frequented the dilapidated church near the cemetery on the edge of town.

Although I don't know why, but that person is really not easy to mess with.

It is because of this that they have been going less and less to Agoqiu recently, trying not to get close to the church.

As for the young man at the head, he had no doubts about the reason that person used at that time.

He has a friend who hangs out with that Archibald and has been to Dutley, Wawai, and Donglu. He said that whether it is Cartesia or various churches, private burials are strictly prohibited, and the corpses must be buried in various cemeteries. If they are not buried in the church cemetery, they must also be buried in the public cemetery outside the town.

Otherwise, if you are caught, you will be punished severely, even worse than murder.

When he heard it from that guy, he still had some doubts, why the punishment for mass burial was heavier than that for murder.

Knowing that his subordinates were worried about the old guy who lived in the church, the young man waved his hands indifferently:

Don't worry too much, let's go first, you take that guy there, we'll grab the money and kill him, and then drag him to the cemetery outside the town to bury him.

Hearing cemetery, those subordinates couldn't help shaking.

They are a group of people who do all kinds of shady things, often at night, and sometimes encounter some weird things accidentally.

Although they don't quite believe it, they don't like to be close to the cemetery where weird things are most likely to happen.

Before them, the boss of the gangster in this small town took people to rob and kill several people, and then went to the cemetery to bury people in the middle of the night, but he didn't come back.

A subordinate said cautiously:

Really, do you really want to be buried in the cemetery?

Seeing scared written in the eyes of several people, the young man in the lead couldn't help but froze:

Drag the body nearby and throw it away, and I'll be right back.

Hearing this sentence, several people still hesitated, but compared to digging a hole and burying the body before, it obviously doesn't take long to just leave the body.

What are you still afraid of! If you don't do it, you will lose your money! The young man gave them a vicious look.

Several people looked at each other, opened their mouths, and finally nodded in agreement.

But obviously it's not because I'm not afraid anymore, but because I don't have any money.

After a brief discussion, they rushed to Ago Qiu immediately.

However, no one noticed that a monster that looked like a man and a worm snake, covered with gray clothes and gray hat, and whose whole body was like straw, was just clinging to the wall where they were just now, watching them leave.

Waiting for them to disappear, the monster opened its mouth and spit out a silent murmur:

Dismantling the house and opening the skylight, the conversation skills are not bad, you should know a lot of things.

No one could see the death intent in those empty, pupilless eyes.

Yago, who just walked into the store, also glanced up at the stalker whose acting skills are not bad but in his eyes is still quite poor.
