Worrying is useless, so let's go as planned and check these two rooms.
"Ding... Ding..." I tapped the doorknob with the Demon Slashing Sword to see if there was anyone inside.
Although no one agreed, I still didn't open the door directly with my hands. Instead, I used mana to unscrew the door handle. The door was unlocked and opened. Generally, in rural areas, unless you are traveling far away, the door is rarely locked.
I gently pushed open the door with the tip of my sword, and then cautiously poked my head to check the situation inside.
"Huh..." There are conditions here that are known conditions, so every step I take is cautious. After waiting for the door to open, I didn't rush in. First, I gathered magic power with my hands and went for an interview. .
There was still no reaction at all, but the more this happened, the more unstable my heart became. I walked into the door of this room with an uneasy heart of speculation.
"Huh?!" As soon as I entered, I hadn't stood still, and a pungent smell entered my nose, a smell of sour meat. This kind of taste is very common in our rural areas. Generally, bacon and dried fish have this kind of taste.
But this smell is not the kind I usually smell. It is not the smell of pork and fish after drying. It smells like the kind of meatballs that have just been stewed out of the oven. It is a bit sour and a bit sour. Fishy, a bit like cat meat.
Cat meat! ! The nerves of my brain suddenly became tense, and a little white cat flashed through my mind. My eyes were patrolling the whole room carefully. I still have the intention to look at the things in this room, and my mind is thinking about finding it. The source of this meat.
But there was no meat hanging in this room. I transferred the mana to form a shield outside the body, and then walked towards the balcony.
When I was waiting to walk to the balcony, I was suddenly shocked, my mind quickly turned, and a bad feeling arose in my heart.
Women's underwear was hanging on the balcony**. Aunt Lin and Uncle Zhao have no children at all. Aunt Lin passed away a few months ago, so how can there be such things hanging here.
I looked at those underwears curiously, but I'm definitely not a pervert. I'm looking at whether this thing is Aunt Lin's or not. Looking at these old-fashioned and conservative costumes, it really looks like Aunt Lin's. The style that old women will wear.
When I went to see the village chief that day, I should have asked about Aunt Lin's family by the way, but I also blamed myself for believing in Uncle Zhao's words and didn't doubt it at all. Judging from the current situation, I think that most of what Uncle Zhao said is false, and Aunt Lin is very likely not dead.
Just when I was attentive and concentrating on thinking about the problem, I completely ignored a small hand extending from behind my back.
When I reacted, I was already covering my mouth. Of course, I resisted fiercely without turning my head back. After seeing me so excited, the man hurriedly said, "It's me, Xiaoli."
While she was talking, she let go of my mouth. When I turned my head to check, she found that she was really Xiaoli, and her expression seemed very nervous, but I still asked in surprise: " Why did you come in? Did you come in from downstairs?"
Xiao Li didn't pay attention to my question, but instead asked me: "Why did you come in for so long? I'm almost dying of anxiety. Okay, let's go. The little white cat here has already investigated and there is no problem."
Upon hearing the news of the little white cat, I immediately asked nervously: "Little white? Has it gone out? Where is it now?"
Xiaoli looked at me curiously as if he was looking at a national treasure, and said, "Of course it is outside, or it let me in and tell you to go out. It said that it has already investigated here, and there is nothing suspicious. , The black thing probably has escaped to other places, we hurry up and chase it elsewhere."
Xiao Li didn't wait for me when he finished speaking, and ran directly downstairs. When he was at the top of the stairs, Xiao Li shouted to me loudly: "Hurry up, what about the ink."
Listening to Xiao Li’s urging voice, I was a little confused. I was hesitating whether I should believe Xiao Li’s words. The nose was still full of sour cat meat. At the same time, my mind was also strange, I and Xiao Li Didn't the promise of breaking the glass with stones as a sign, why suddenly came over now
Looking at the unsearched door next door, and Xiao Li, who urged me to leave, I hesitated. I regret it now. I should have entered the room next door just now because the window of that room is facing the road, and I can see the small distance outside.
After a short period of thought, I decided to take a look at the next room first. Even if the Xiaoli just now is true, I don't need to rush for a while when I go out.
"Bang..." With my mind, I didn't have the temperament that I just had. I directly blasted my luck mana towards the doorknob next door, and the wooden door opened instantly.
"Ding..." But at this moment, the sound of glass breaking came from somewhere. Now I didn't hesitate anymore, I leaped directly to the balcony, flew out, and after landing, turned back and quickly ran towards Xiao Lina.
After running a few steps, I saw Xiao Li's figure. I hurriedly waved and shouted: "Xiao Li, I am here."
After hearing my call, Xiao Li also looked at me, but when she saw me sprinting, she actually shook her head anxiously at me, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Silly Wood , Don't come over, run away."
After hearing Xiaoli’s shout, I was a little bit stunned to respond, but at the same time, I stopped vigilantly, standing not far away from Xiaoli, and asked Xiaoli, “Xiaoli ,What happened?"
Seeing me staying where I was, Xiao Li roared at me as if going crazy: "Run, what are you doing in a daze!!"
If I run away like this, can I still be considered a man, but I also know that Xiaoli must have encountered some trouble. Under the circumstances, I chose not to move forward, but thought I would just run away like this. Without even thinking about it, even if someone puts a knife on my neck and lets me go, I can't go.
But I didn't expect that my idea really worked, but the knife was not on me, but on Xiaoli's neck. That knife, that person, seemed to appear out of thin air, he was standing behind Xiao Li, the blade of which was on Xiao Li's neck.
Although he wears a mask, I know from his clothes that he is Uncle Zhao, but I did not expose him, but shouted at him: "Let go of her. I'm here. What can I do? I'll come." (End of this chapter)
