Chapter 51 The death of the old king
A cool air spread from Song Chao's head to his feet.

She couldn't believe it, "Father?"

This sound seemed to remind Song Shan of something, and he smiled again, "Chaochao, let's go home," as if he had forgotten what he had just said.

But the Song Dynasty could not forget.

The father and daughter were walking home, Song Chao followed Song Shan, looking at his back in trance.

As if feeling something, Song Shan turned his head to look at Song Chao.

"Chaochao, what's wrong?" His tone was as gentle as ever.

"Dad, when did you learn to swim?"

"Fishermen know how to swim." Song Shan said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"Father!" Song Chao's voice rose slightly, which made Song Shan look at her blankly.

"Chao Chao, what's the matter?"

"Father, do you still remember what you said just now, the seabed is your home?" Song Chao spit out her question word by word, staring at Song Shan closely while asking, not letting go of any of his expressions.

Song Shan's expression was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at Song Chao with a puzzled expression and said, "Chaochao, did you hear it wrong? When did I say this?"

The seriousness on Song Shan's face did not seem to be fake, which made Song Chao couldn't help but start to wonder if he was controlled by something, otherwise how could he explain his series of strange behaviors on the bottom of the sea.

After that, the two remained silent all the way.

After returning home, the first thing Song Shan did was to drink water, pouring water into his mouth.

like a fish...

Song Chao felt as if he had found some clues, but he still needed to verify his guess.

At night, after Song Shan was asleep, Song Chao sneaked out of the house.

When Song Chao went to the bottom of the sea to look for Song Shan in the afternoon, he also noticed that Lao Wang and Song Shan, who lived opposite them, had the same symptoms.

Song Chao quietly climbed over the wall of the old Wang's house.

The lights in Lao Wang's house are still on. What is Lao Wang doing who is still up so late?

The scene Song Chao saw next gave her the answer.

I saw Lao Wang sitting at the table at this time, holding a kettle in his hand and pouring water into his mouth, just like Song Shan last night.

Song Chao looked along his arm holding the kettle, and a crimson eyeball-shaped imprint was clearly visible.

Sure enough, anyone who had the strange marks on their arms had the same symptoms.

Lack of water... Lack of water like a fish...

The Song Dynasty thought about what could cause such symptoms...

The next moment, Lao Wang suddenly twitched all over, foamed at the mouth, and his eyeballs turned white. It looked like he was having a stroke.

Song Chao realized that something was wrong, and just wanted to go in to check on Lao Wang's situation, but saw that Lao Wang stopped convulsing and continued to twitch, with scales like fish scales growing on his arms.

Scales?

Song Chao confirmed his guess.

This strange mark may represent something that can turn a person into a fish-like thing...maybe poison, or something else...

Just when Song Chao didn't know whether her guess was correct, she seemed to hear her voice, and the system's voice sounded in her mind.

"The mission completion rate has reached 10%."

It seems that he guessed it right. Song Chao secretly rejoiced and lamented that the current system is really more and more humane, and there are task progress reminders.

It's just that before she could finish her fun, the old Wang seemed unable to accept the fact that the scales had grown, and actually buckled off the scales growing on his body...

With the falling of the scales, large patches of blood appeared on Lao Wang's body, but Lao Wang seemed to be unable to see the blood on his body, and continued to buckle the scales...until the last scale was taken off by him After that, a weird smile appeared on his face.

Under the light, a blood man is smiling strangely. This scene is scary no matter how you look at it.

Song Chao was so startled by this scene that he got goosebumps all over his body, but after seeing the smile on Lao Wang's face disappeared, he lay back straight on the ground with his eyes open.

Oops!

Song Chao was about to run towards the house, but there was a figure faster than her.

It was a woman with short silver hair. After Lao Wang landed on the ground and made a "bang--", the woman rushed from the next room to Lao Wang's room.

There is someone else in Lao Wang's family?
Song Chao stopped and continued to use his mental energy to observe the situation.

The woman was obviously taken aback when she saw Lao Wang's blood all over her body, especially when she saw that Lao Wang's eyes were open. She shook her hand in front of Lao Wang's eyes and found that Lao Wang didn't respond After realizing that Lao Wang must have lost consciousness, she forced herself to calm down and probed his breath with her hand, and she was obviously relieved when she found that Lao Wang's breath was still there.

Then he looked at the old Wang who was lying on the ground with a troubled expression. He obviously didn't know how to treat him. When Song Chao was hesitating whether to show up to save the old Wang, he saw that the old Wang suddenly trembled, and then his open eyes closed suddenly. , with a weird smile on his face, as if he had dreamed of something happy.

This frightened both the woman and the Song Dynasty.

The woman's hands stood in the air, her fingers were slightly bent, and she didn't know what to do. Song Chao, who was hiding in the dark, seemed to inadvertently shift her gaze to Lao Wang's nose.

The woman coincided with Song Chao's thinking, and the next moment she carefully probed the old king's breath with her hand again, and then stood up abruptly and exclaimed.

Song Chao realized that this man who had a good relationship with Song Shan had probably lost his life.

Sure enough, the woman stood there blankly, looking terrified.

Witnessing the death of others is actually a very uncomfortable thing. After returning home, Song Chao lay in bed all night.

I lay down all night in the sound of Song Shan frequently going downstairs to drink water.

In the night, Song Chao stared at the ceiling above his head, thinking of Lao Wang's death, and let out a very soft sigh.

Early the next morning, Song Chao was awakened by the noise at the door.

She guessed that the death of Lao Wang was discovered.

When I went out, I saw that the gate of Lao Wang's house was densely packed with people.

After a while, the crowd automatically separated to both sides, and two men came out carrying Lao Wang's body on a stretcher.

To Song Chao's surprise, Lao Wang's body, which was still covered in blood last night, turned out to be unbelievably clean.

Song Chao originally thought that the woman from last night cleaned up the blood stains for him, but Song Chao took a closer look and found that the clothes Lao Wang was wearing were still the ones he wore when he died last night.

That thing is a bit weird. Could it be that the woman not only helped Lao Wang clean up the blood on his body, but also washed his clothes?
Song Chao denied this idea from the bottom of his heart. After all, if she did this, what was her purpose?Besides, Lao Wang's death should have nothing to do with her, and the theory of destroying the body and destroying the traces is also untenable...

If the woman hadn't cleaned it up, then something strange must have happened during the time after Song Chao returned home last night.

Song Chao began to hate himself for leaving last night in a hurry.
