I Eat Monsters In the Town Monster

"You are sharp-eyed, and you have noticed that our situation here is different from other places."

Yicheng was over half a hundred years old, and his old face was full of folds. Hearing the question, he glanced at Qin Shaoyou in surprise.

"We're going south and north, but we can't do it without good eyesight. Li Yicheng, please tell us what happened here?

Originally, we didn't want to inquire about it. After all, when we are away from home, it is better to do more than one less thing.

But people along the way are staring at our boss's daughter with strange eyes, and the situation of those children makes us really worried..."

Qin Shaoyou's tongue is eloquent, and he said this lie as if it was true.

Li Yicheng believed his words, glanced at Su Jianqing, and said, "That good girl like a porcelain doll is your boss's daughter? Then you have to protect her! Especially at night, send more Keep someone to guard her, block the doors and windows tightly, and don't let her go out during the day."

Seeing that Qin Shaoyou had made a breakthrough, Zhu Xiucai walked over, pretending to be surprised and curious, and asked, "Li Yicheng, why is this?"

He also took out a few copper coins from his pocket and stuffed them into Li Yicheng's hands: "This money is what I asked Yicheng to drink, but don't think it's too small."

Li Yicheng pretended to shirk for a while, then swiftly put away the copper coins, and said in a low voice, "We are not peaceful here... it's haunted!"

"Huh? Haunted? Really?"

Qin Shaoyou and Zhu Xiucai pretended to be frightened.

Li Yicheng was very satisfied with the reaction of the two, and raised his brows: "What am I lying to you for? We are really haunted here, and the ghosts only catch children!"

"About half a year ago, we have been haunted by ghosts. The ghosts will appear at night every now and then and take away children.

The family who lost the child at first thought it was a peasant or a refugee who sneaked into the city, stole the child, and went to the county government office to report the crime. As a result, the police in the county government office quickly took the police officer and found it outside the city. The devoured corpse of a child. That corpse was gnawed, it was horrible to see! Only a skeleton and a little minced meat are left, and it is only by the clothes that I can identify the identity..."

"What about the night watchmen here? They're all haunted, don't they care?" Zhu Xiucai couldn't help but interjected and asked.

The haunting has been going on for half a year, and it continues, making him have to wonder if the night watchman here is negligent in his duties.

But Li Yicheng said, "I'll take care of it, who said I didn't take care of it? Our night watchman here started an investigation right away.

It's a pity that the ghost is not only cunning, but also very powerful. Our vigils here locked it several times, and it slipped away, and even in turn, killed several vigils.

Those dead night watchmen are all good men, what a pity!

In fact, the reason why people here keep children at home, in special cages, is also the advice of the night watchman.

According to their investigation, the ghost has some eccentric abilities and can mingle in the crowd. Once a child is spotted by it, it will quickly grab the child and eat it.

Today, you are walking around the city with little girls without any cover. It's like saying to the ghost, "I have children here, come and eat." . "

"So that's the case." Zhu Xiucai frowned, pretending to be very nervous and worried, and said angrily: "When I entered the city, I gave tea money to the guards, and they actually Don't even remind me."

Li Yicheng sighed: "It's useless to remind you, that ghost is not only committing crimes in the city, it will also go to many towns outside the city, there is a great possibility that your boss's daughter has been seen by the ghost long ago. , keep an eye on it."

Qin Shaoyou rolled his eyes: "So, that ghost will definitely come to arrest our boss's daughter tonight? Let's go to the town demon yamen to report the case, and ask the night watchman to come and watch, won't we be able to wait for the rabbit, tonight? Catch that ghost?"

But Li Yicheng shook his head: "That ghost is cunning, if it is so easy to catch, our night watchman will not be able to catch it for half a year. According to the ghost's previous practice, even if it is eyeing your boss. Your daughter, you may not act immediately, maybe you will use your boss' daughter as a guise to deceive the night watchman, so as to start attacking other children."

"But the other children didn't take to the streets, didn't they?" Zhu Xiucai said.

Li Yicheng said: "There are always disobedient children who will look out from the cracks in the doors and windows or even the top of the wall, and will also be targeted by the ghost."

Qin Shaoyou remembered the child who was watching the street from behind the window, and nodded involuntarily.

Then he asked again: "So, everyone is so taboo about this matter, are they afraid that the ghost will hear and take revenge?"

"That's right." Li Yicheng nodded: "Although that ghost has no interest in adult people, the few couriers you asked just now have children at home, and they are indeed afraid that they will talk about this matter. , will be heard by the ghost, so they will take revenge and take away their children. In fact, when you enter the city, the soldiers at the city gate did not dare to remind you, and this is probably the reason."

Qin Shaoyou and Zhu Xiucai nodded.

This reason makes sense.

However, there was another confusion in their hearts.

"Then why aren't you afraid?"

"My two sons are adults, and they haven't married a wife to have children. What should I be afraid of?"

When Li Yicheng mentioned his two sons, his mood was very complicated, both happy and sad.

I'm happy because there are no children at home, so I don't have to worry about it every day.

The sadness is also because my son is not up to expectations, and he has not married a daughter-in-law and gave birth to a child...

Qin Shaoyou and Zhu Xiucai looked at each other, they wanted to comfort Li Yicheng, but at first glance they thought that they didn't have a family, so the words of comfort were really hard to say.

They can only continue to inquire about the information related to the case: "Li Yicheng~www.readwn.com~ We still have a question, since there are ghosts catching children here, why did no one take his children and escape to other places go?"

"Escape? If I could escape, I would have escaped long ago, but unfortunately I can't escape."

Li Yicheng grimaced and sighed faintly.

"Actually, in the early days of the haunting, there were people who wanted to run away. Our magistrates and the chief flag officer of the Town Demon Division were very open-minded, and they even issued a road guide.

But these people who ran away, just ran away the day before, they would turn back inexplicably the next day.

When asked how they got back, they couldn't explain clearly, as if they were hit by a ghost, they turned back on their own without knowing it.

Others died directly outside. The whole family died. Children were eaten by ghosts, and adults were gutted and eaten by unknown beasts.

After a few times like this, no one dared to run away and hide at home, maybe it would be safer.

Now, we can only hope that the night watchman can catch this ghost as soon as possible, and give everyone peace..."
