Chu Xun saw the frightened woman in the hospital.
Because she was agitated, yelling, acting crazy, had just been sedated, and was now asleep.
Chu Xun stepped forward, but was pulled back by Tang Rou, "I'll do it!"
Tang Rou channeled a burst of true energy to dispel the effects of the tranquilizer. The woman faintly woke up.
Suddenly, her eyes became frightened, her face twisted, and she shouted in fear: "Ghost... ghost..."
However, slowly, her expression began to stabilize, and the power of true energy came into play to guard her mind and calm her down.
"It's okay, you're safe, don't be afraid!" Tang Rou reassured her.
The woman really gradually calmed down.
Tang Rou indicated with her eyes that it was okay to ask.
"Girl, do you remember what happened last night?" Chu Xun asked tentatively.
The woman was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes began to panic again, and her expression became frightened again.
Tang Rou once again channeled a burst of true energy to help her stabilize her emotions. And comforted: "Girl, don't be afraid, you are safe, no one can hurt you."
After a long time, the woman's emotions calmed down, and she spoke tremblingly: "We work together and live together. After work last night, we went home as usual. I left something at the company, so I asked them to leave first. But When I got my things and caught up with them..."
At this point, the woman began to tremble.
"I saw a monster, no, it was a ghost... a black ghost... It was very tall, three or four meters tall. Its eyes were red, like blood... Its claws were long and sharp... I saw Then it took out their hearts, threw them in its mouth and ate them..."
She spoke intermittently and somewhat confusedly.
But Chu Xun still understood, and his expression became solemn. Although it is not yet clear what it is, it deserves attention. Maybe a new species has emerged.
Chu Xun wanted to know more details, but the woman came and went with just a few words and couldn't say anything else.
Chu Xun left and took Tang Rou and Jiuyou to the Four Saints Palace.
Yue Fandie was overjoyed when she learned that Chu Xun was here.
"Brother Chu, you're fine." Yue Fandie shouted, "Brother, you're finally here. I've been having a headache these past few days."
The three Yue Hongbo brothers were also there, with worried faces, but they still did not forget to salute, "Second uncle!"
Tang Rou and Jiuyou looked at each other and smiled. It was so interesting. Brother Yue Hongbo was about 150 years old, but he called Chu Xun his second uncle.
Chu Xun introduced Tang Rou to Yue Fandie, and he had met Jiuyou before.
"Brother, do you know that I'm almost bored to death lately?" Yue Fandie complained.
"I know, is it because of those murders?"
Yue Fandie was surprised, "You know everything?"
Chu Xun nodded and said, "We just happened to meet him on the way here."
"Brother Chu, do you see any tricks?" Yue Fandie rubbed the center of his eyebrows. These murderous cases have made people panic, and ordinary people dare not go out at night.
Chu Xun shook his head and said, "I can't see anything right now? Are only civilian women brutally murdered?"
"There are also warriors, but they are all women." Yue Fandie said.
"Tell me what you know, and let's attack together to see if we can find any clues." Chu Xundao said.
Yue Fandie nodded.
"The thing started a week ago. First, more than a dozen college students died tragically in the school bathroom." Yue Hongbo said: "Taking out the heart is too cruel. We immediately sent out our children to investigate, but there was nothing." Find out.”
"Later, more women died tragically one after another, and their hearts were ripped out, and there were warriors among them. We checked in many ways, and at first we thought it was a ferocious beast, but the intersections outside the city were guarded, and ferocious beasts generally couldn't get through. Besides, the size of ferocious beasts It’s too big, it’s impossible to kill someone without anyone seeing it.”
Yue Fandie smiled bitterly and said: "To be honest, brother, this is the first time I have encountered such a strange thing in my life. The murderer can't be found at all, which makes people feel like punching the air with their fists."
"Don't let me know who it is? Otherwise, I have to kill him with my own hands." Yue Changle's face was filled with murderous intent and he was a little impatient.
Yue Fandie said: "It's really depressing. So far, there are no clues. We can only strengthen patrols."
Chu Xun was silent for a moment and then said: "Perhaps this was not done by man, nor by ferocious birds and beasts."
"What is that?" Yue Fandie was puzzled and said, "It's not a human being or a ferocious beast. Could it be that it was done by a ghost?"
"It's not impossible." Chu Xundao said.
The three brothers Yue Fandie and Yue Hongbo all looked at Chu Xun strangely.
Chu Xun repeated the woman's words.
"I didn't expect there to be anyone alive. How did she survive?" Yue Changle was surprised.
"We'll talk about this later." Chu Xun said, "Brother Yue, look through that secret book passed down from generation to generation and see if there is any introduction to something similar to this."
There is a secret book handed down from generation to generation in the Four Saints Palace, which records many secret things. Last time, Chu Xun had a brief viewing and learned about the Dark Demon Clan.
Yue Fandie nodded, and Yue Hongbo went to get the secret book handed down from ancient times and started to read it.
The secret book handed down from ancient times is ten centimeters thick, and it takes a lot of time to read through it one by one. Everyone took turns reading it.
"Should we let that woman take a look?" Tang Rou suggested.
"No need." The corner of Chu Xun's mouth raised a hint of intrigue.
"Brother, are you hiding something from me?" Yue Fandie looked at Chu Xun.
Chu Xun was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "I'm not sure yet. I'll tell you when I'm sure."
"Second uncle, look at this." Yue Hongbo said.
Chu Xun took it and saw a very ferocious monster painted on it, with a body like a horse, a single horn, a sharp mouth and fangs, and a mane like steel needles. The hind limbs are thick and the forelimbs are short but have sharp claws.
"One-horned black smoke beast." Chu Xun saw the name of this monster.
This kind of monster is very lethal, bloodthirsty, and warlike, but the race of the one-horned black smoke beast became extinct millions of years ago.
"It's not like that." Chu Xun shook his head and said, "According to what the girl said, the monster was completely black, several meters tall, and had long, sharp hands. The forelimbs of this one-horned black smoke beast are too short."
Yue Changle took it and continued to read.
Not long after, he showed it to Chu Xun.
"Second uncle, does this look like to you?"
The sentence "Second Uncle" made Chu Xun's skin crawl.
"Zombies."
Chu Xun stared at the monster with a green mouth and fangs on the screen.
He is several meters tall, his whole body is purple and blue, and he looks like a stone. His arms are extremely long, and the nails on his palms are like daggers.
"If I guessed correctly, it should be the Zombie clan." Chu Xundao said.
Tang Rou came over to take a look and said, "It's very similar to what the woman described."
"I have fought against this kind of thing before." Chu Xundao said.
Yue Fandie and others looked at Chu Xun in shock.
Chu Xun spoke slowly. When he slaughtered all the Ghost King's Gate, which is now the Maple Grove Valley where Yanlong Palace is located, he was seriously injured during the battle with the old Ghost King, and was finally rescued by Emperor Ao.
Everyone thought he was dead, so they went to Qianlong Mountain to seize the secret book of peerless skills and formations.
When the Ghost King Gate was destroyed, the Ghost King was not in the gate and escaped the disaster. Among the people who besieged Qianlong Mountain that time, there was a ghost king. And in the end, he released a sleeping Zombie King, which was very terrifying.
"Brother, how can I find this thing?" Yue Fandie doesn't care what you have. He just wants to kill this ghostly thing that has given him a headache for several days.
Chu Xun shook his head. He couldn't think of a good way for a while. The key point is still unclear. Is it the Zombies who caused these murders
"Brother Chu Xun, I have an idea that you can try." Tang Ju said.
"What can be done?" Chu Xun was curious.
Yue Fandie and others also looked at Tang Rou.
"Don't that monster like women's hearts? I can lure him out. Then... "
"No." Tang Rou was rejected by Chu Xun before she could finish her words. How could he let Tang Rou risk such a dangerous thing
"Just let me try. Anyway, as long as you are by my side to protect me, nothing will happen." Tang Rou said coquettishly.
Chu Xun still shook his head, this was impossible.
Yue Fandie and others think this is a solution, but who dares to say it? Chu Xun had just razed the entire Seven Star Gate to the ground for Tang Rou and Jiuyou.
What else do you want to say when you see Tang Rou? Chu Xun immediately darkened his face and said, "There is no need to discuss this matter further."
Tang Rou pouted, she just wanted to help Chu Xun.
"Why don't we find another woman." Yue Fandie suggested.
Chu Xun waved his hand and said, "No, I'll try to find this monster first."
Chu Xun understood that it was useless to find other women, even if they were warriors. This monster killed so many people without even seeing its shadow. It must be very capable of hiding.
The reason Tang Rou asked her to go was because she was a cultivator and could see hidden filth.
"Brother, have you thought of a solution?" Yue Fandie was overjoyed.
"I don't know if it is possible yet." Chu Xun said, "Brother, send someone to keep an eye on the surviving woman. As soon as she is discharged from the hospital, notify me as soon as possible. Remember not to disturb her."
Yue Fandie was puzzled.
Yue Hongbo said: "Second uncle, don't worry, I will keep an eye on it myself."
The next few days were uneventful, and no more murders occurred.
"Brother, why don't you refine the elixir first." Yue Fandie said, and Chu Xun told him why he came here.
Chu Xun refused and joked: "It's better to resolve this matter first, lest you pull out all your beard."
Yue Fandie smiled bitterly. These recent murders had indeed made him very upset.
On this day, news came from Yue Hongbo that the surviving woman was discharged from the hospital.
Chu Xun asked Jiuyou and Tang Rou to stay in the Four Saints Palace, and also asked Yue Fandie to be prepared and wait for news from him at any time.
Chu Xun left independently and joined Yue Hongbo.
"Second uncle, after he came out, he went home directly. I asked someone to find out, this is where she rented." Yue Hongbo pointed to an old building and said.
"How long have you been in there?" Chu Xun asked.
"Four or five hours."
Chu Xun nodded and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. It seemed that his judgment was correct.
"Second uncle, do you think there is something wrong with this woman?" Yue Hongbo asked.
"I wasn't sure at first, but now..." Chu Xun chuckled and said, "Let me ask you, if you were her and all your roommates died tragically, would you still come back to this place to stay for four or five hours?"
