When Shi Qingzhou went outside, it was only dark.
He thought about it, but instead of going to Zhou Huan's place, he planned to meet with Zou Qingyuan first.
However, this time, when Shi Qingzhou approached Zou Qingyuan, the other party looked a bit sad, as if he couldn't even laugh, Shi Qingzhou was a little surprised, and asked. "Brother Zou, what's the matter?"
Zou Qingyuan smiled wryly. He looked at Shi Qingzhou and opened his mouth, as if he was thinking whether to tell Shi Qingzhou, or how to tell Shi Qingzhou.
But in the end, the other party let out a long sigh without saying anything.
Seeing this, Shi Qingzhou couldn't help raising his eyebrows. "What exactly happened here?"
Zou Qingyuan took a deep breath, looked at Shi Qingzhou firmly, and said as if he had made up his mind: "Brother Shi should know about the legendary blood-sucking madman case that happened in the imperial city, right?"
"It happened yesterday, of course I know." Shi Qingzhou said, then squinted his eyes at Zou Qingyuan.
"Brother Zou is not surprised to know about this case, I absolutely believe in the intelligence network of Tianji Building, why does Brother Zou have such an expression
Could it be that he knew something about this case? "
Shi Qingzhou's sense was very keen, and he was sure that the other party must know something almost when Zou Qingyuan proposed it.
Seeing this, Zou Qingyuan could only give a more wry smile.
"Well... If that's an inside story, then it's an inside story."
"Huh? How do you say it?" Shi Qingzhou felt that this seemed strange.
Just when Shi Qingzhou thought so, Zou Qingyuan put away the wry smile on his face, and said: "A strange thing happened on our side last night."
"What strange thing?" Shi Qingzhou asked immediately.
Zou Qingyuan looked outside, and then used his internal strength to feel the surroundings, and then slowly said: "Last night, less than half a stick of incense after the incident, our side... also had a little problem .”
"What's wrong?" Shi Qingzhou felt that this was unusual and asked quickly.
Zou Qingyuan took a deep breath. "The two cows in our farm have been sucked dry of blood."
Shi Qingzhou was taken aback when he heard this. "ox?"
"Yes, cow." Zou Qingyuan smiled wryly. "Maybe I should be thankful that the cow was not a human being, but the death of a cow is also subject to legal responsibility. You should know that the death of every cow slaughter needs to be reported to the government."
Shi Qingzhou was silent for a while, and said: "Have you been to the government?"
Zou Qingyuan shook his head. "No."
The death of the cow alone is not a big deal, Shi Qingzhou didn't worry about it.
Glancing at Zou Qingyuan, Shi Qingzhou said: "Brother Zou, the death of a cow is not a big deal, the law is nothing more than human feelings, but, looking at Brother Zou's expression, do these two cows have other secrets?"
"Brother Shi is here, so I'll just say it straight, the two cows here have been sucked dry of blood, but, coincidentally, I happened to be awake in the yard at that time, and when I heard the movement, the cows had already been killed The blood was sucked dry, but I didn't find any suspicious people around, no, it should be said, I didn't find anyone at all. And those two cows stood up after being sucked dry, the damn cows He actually charged at me, if it wasn't for my good martial arts, I'm afraid I would have confessed after the collision."
Shi Qingzhou was taken aback for a moment, then his face changed slightly. "What? The cow was drained of blood but not dead?"
"Yes, not only did he not die, but his strength suddenly became very strong, and he looked like he was about to kill someone. I ended those two mad cows with my sword before they stopped."
Shi Qingzhou was silent.
Zou Qingyuan continued: "Not long after the mad cow incident, I also received the news that the blood-sucking maniac killed people. For some reason, I really want to see what happened to the person killed by the blood-sucking maniac. So, I went to the yamen secretly. That night, before the emperor handed over the case to the Ministry of Punishment, the corpse was only in the yamen of Fu Yin. I sneaked into the yamen and found... It's exactly the same!"
Shi Qingzhou narrowed his eyes.
Zou Qingyuan smiled wryly. "However, when the blood-sucking maniac happened, it took less than half a stick of incense for the cow on my side to have an accident. In such a short period of time, how did that person come to me from there? Even if he is light-hearted Zhuo Jue, with the two of us adding up so quickly, the time for half a stick of incense is barely enough for my village, right? The murderer even killed two cows in a strange way... I think, Brother Shi, this matter It's really evil!"
Shi Qingzhou didn't say anything immediately, he pursed his lips slightly, and then said: "Where are the corpses of the two cows?"
"I didn't let anyone move, and I'm still in the backyard. Even if Brother Shi doesn't come here today, I plan to find Brother Shi."
Shi Qingzhou frowned slightly. "Then why didn't someone contact me during the day?"
"I hesitate." Zou Qingyuan confessed with a wry smile. "This matter... I don't know if Tianjilou will be involved, and I don't know what the murderer wants to do... But, I also want to understand, Tianjilou can't blame people for nothing! Even if the murderer came to Tianjilou , Tianjilou can’t be afraid of him!”
"Have you ever communicated with the landlord about this matter?" Shi Qingzhou asked.
"After the incident happened late last night, I sent someone to report to the landlord, but the landlord is in the south of the Yangtze River, and it will take two days to receive the news. The lady happened to be here, so I told her about it."
Shi Qingzhou paused. "How many people in your village know about the cow?"
"I know that many cows died, but I don't know if the cow went crazy before it died, and some know that the cow was also sucked dry, but the only one who is the same as that blood-sucking madman is the young lady. I will send a letter to It’s also written in the landlord’s letter.”
Regarding Zou Qingyuan's words, Shi Qingzhou didn't express any emotion whether he believed it or not, but just asked the other party to take him to the two cows.
The two cows were locked up in the shed in the backyard. After Shi Qingzhou checked it himself, he asked the shadow guard to check it out.
Although the blood of those two cows was sucked dry, but their own frame is very big, the only thing that makes Shi Qingzhou feel weird is that they were both sucked blood, they should be dead, why did they break out such a powerful attack at that moment force
How strong is Zou Qingyuan's attack power that he almost confessed to
Zou Qingyuan's martial arts should be on the same level as his own, between brothers, so if he ran into this mad cow, he would probably be the same...
Shi Qingzhou came here just to ask if there is any information about the blood-sucking maniac Tianjilou in the imperial city, but he didn't expect that Tianjilou itself would encounter such a problem...
However, why did not people die but two cows
Is there any saying in this
Frowning, Shi Qingzhou didn't say anything in the end, but when he was about to leave, he said: "I will bring someone here with Hu Qingyuan, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment. You can cooperate, but don't let too many people know about this place." matter."
Zou Qingyuan nodded. "I see."
Shi Qingzhou left with the shadow guard, feeling that what happened in the Tianji Building was quite strange, he stood there thinking for a while after going out, and then rushed to Zhou Huan's place immediately.
Zhou Huan had already woken up. He seemed to have a clearer consciousness this morning, but he didn't seem to be so clear.
She still couldn't speak, "Ah, ah", but her eyes seemed eager, but no one could understand what she said.
Zhang Yuan once found paper and pen and asked the other party to write on the paper.
Zhou Huan couldn't move very much and couldn't hold the pen, so Zhang Yuan asked the other party to write directly with his fingers. However, that didn't work either.
Zhou Huan seemed a little anxious, as if he wanted to say something.
In the morning, Zhang Yuan asked his servants to boil the medicine for the other party to drink. After drinking the medicine, the other party began to feel drowsy. Zhang Yuan felt it was very strange. There was nothing in his medicine that could make people sleep! Why did Zhou Huan feel drowsy after eating it? Zhang Yuan wondered if the medicine had been tampered with. Fortunately, there was still some medicine left, so he tested it immediately.
But the result of the test is that there is no tampering!
Zhang Yuan was very puzzled by this, and Zhou Huan had been sleeping in the afternoon. Until half an hour before Shi Qingzhou passed, the other party finally woke up.
However, Zhou Huan who woke up again seemed a little weirder than before. The original Zhou Huan was very impatient, but now Zhou Huan...
... on the other hand, it seems that she has no interest in life, her eyes are very dead. And, it's kind of hollow.
Zhang Yuan, and the servants and maids below talked to each other several times, but the other party didn't respond at all.
Zhang Yuan took the other party's pulse, but there was nothing wrong with it, which made Zhang Yuan almost scratch his hair in worry.
After Shi Qingzhou arrived, Zhang Yuan immediately reported the situation here to the other party, including the blood-sucking maniac last night.
Shi Qingzhou frowned after listening. "Go and see."
Shi Qingzhou, Zhang Yuan and the shadow guard arrived at Zhou Huan's room, but neither the servants nor the maids went in.
Shi Qingzhou looked at Zhou Huan who was half lying down, and frowned again. In Zhou Huan's state, as long as a normal person felt that the other party was not good, "Mrs. Zhou, do you still know me?" Shi Qingzhou said.
Zhou Huan didn't speak. She seemed to have seen Shi Qingzhou come in, but her eyes didn't fluctuate at all. Shi Qingzhou's image was reflected in her eyes, but she didn't respond at all.
Shi Qingzhou looked at Zhang Yuan. "Is her pulse okay?"
"Other than the injury, there is no problem. Weichen is not good at the brain, and I don't know if it is caused by the injury at the back of the head..." Zhang Yuan said, suddenly thinking of someone, and said: "Weichen knows someone in Quanzhou. He has a lot of research on strange diseases. Maybe that person knows what's going on with Mrs. Zhou."
"Oh? Quanzhou?" Shi Qingzhou raised his eyebrows. Quanzhou is now the right minister. After the right minister arrived, he has contributed a lot to the construction of the folk customs there. The right minister's initial strategy was barbaric, but those people are not barbaric. The stove didn't work at all.
At least for now, those people have never gathered to make trouble again, which shows that the right minister's strategy is still successful.
The current situation over there can be regarded as a benign development.
"Yes, I met someone there in the early years. He was very interested in some strange symptoms and studied them all the year round. Weichen and him have not met for two years. That person has a weird personality, but he is very interested in novel diseases. , I am very capable, although I often go wrong with my sword, I have really cured some people, and I am well-known in the local area, and I am called a strange doctor."
Zhang Yuan explained the situation of that person in detail, Shi Qingzhou nodded. "Since Imperial Physician Zhang is so respected, I will send someone to find that strange doctor. Imperial Physician Zhang will go out and tell the shadow guard about that person's details."
Zhang Yuan bowed his head and said yes.
After Doctor Zhang went out, Shi Qingzhou looked at Zhou Huan on the bed, and said again: "Madam Zhou, you really don't remember anyone?"
Zhou Huan still didn't respond at all.
Shi Qingzhou looked at the other party's appearance and felt that something was wrong.
However, he couldn't tell any other reasons, and Shi Qingzhou himself didn't study medicine, and didn't understand it, so he couldn't see anything. In the end, Shi Qingzhou left the room.
What Shi Qingzhou didn't know was that after he left, the eyeballs of Zhou Huan, who hadn't moved at all on the bed, moved. Although it wasn't obvious, it did.
However, Shi Qingzhou and the shadow guard who went out did not find out.
Shi Qingzhou went outside and asked the maid who was waiting outside to come in and continue to serve.
Then, after the servant girl came in, Zhou Huan already had that expression of not moving at all...
Zhang Yuan ordered the boy to boil another medicine outside, planning to try another treatment method tonight.
After Shi Qingzhou came out, he immediately said: "It has been explained."
Shi Qingzhou nodded, "You can do your work."
Zhang Yuan withdrew.
Shi Qingzhou walked around the courtyard, thinking about the blood-sucking maniac.
Thinking of the Tianji Building again, what happened to the two cows in the Tianji Building
The murderer has such ability, shouldn't he only attack two cows? How is this going
I always feel like there's something weird about it.
And Zhou Huan... Zhou Huan's condition is also very strange.
Nanshan... These two words came to Shi Qingzhou's mind. I don't know why, he really wanted to go there, but now is obviously not the time...
The reason why he came out was to prevent that blood-sucking maniac from killing any more people. What he should do now was to stay in the imperial city instead of going to Nanshan.
However, there was a thought in my heart, as if there was some secret hidden on Nanshan.
When Shi Qingzhou is marching and fighting, sometimes he will have some intuitions, and those intuitions will often make him change some of his original plans, and the results of several times have proved that his instincts are very effective, and it is not unreasonable.
After thinking about it, Shi Qingzhou decided to believe in himself again.
"Go to Nanshan." Shi Qingzhou and Yingwei said lightly.
Shi Qingzhou, who said this, was in front of a rockery in the house. He told the shadow guards, and then left with a dozen shadow guards.
What Shi Qingzhou didn't know was that just after they left, a cave suddenly appeared under the ground of the rockery, and then a person walked out of the cave slowly.
The man frowned slightly. "Going to Nanshan late at night? Shi Qingzhou... really smart."
The man walked slowly towards one of the rooms, when a servant came from the other side.
"Miss Zhou, you ate a little at night, do you need some snacks for you in the kitchen?"
The man turned around and smiled lightly. "No thanks."
"Miss Zhou, you're welcome, but it's not peaceful at night. Miss Zhou, don't go out at night. If there is any situation, just call. There are guards in our yard."
"Okay, thank you for your concern."
"Hehe, Miss Zhou is too polite."
