Behind him, the monster's physical features gradually changed into those of a human being, and its hair also changed into short hair. In the end, only a middle-aged man wearing a brown cotton-padded coat was left lying on the ground, lifeless.
Pei Mengqing knelt down in front of him, put her fingers close to "his" nose, and tried calling twice more, but couldn't wake him up.
"Did I kill someone?" He stood up in confusion, and then suddenly drew his sword.
Just when the Orange Bureau thought he was unconscious and was going to do something stupid, Pei Mengqing trotted back to the room, found a rag and a basin of water.
"Ghost, from now on, when you kill your enemies, you will never do the stupid thing of sheathing your sword directly. The scabbard will be full of blood."
When Dongfang Xiaoyu heard the noise and got dressed, she was startled when she saw the corpse in the middle of the courtyard. She saw the candlelight in Pei Mengqing's room. When she pushed the door and entered, Pei Mengqing's face was gloomy and dim under the flickering candlelight.
Blood drops solidified on the side of his face, and he held a rag in his hand to wipe the sword with water.
It looked like he had just finished killing someone and started cleaning the weapons.
While wiping, he also said:
"Damn monster, the new clothes I bought not long ago also poked a few holes in me. What a scam. And this scabbard, why can't it be disassembled in half? It's so troublesome to clean. If it dries naturally, there won't be anything inside. Will it freeze?”
"Pei Mengqing?" Dongfang Xiaoyu called softly.
Pei Mengqing didn't look back because he discovered a little trouble.
The Qingshuang Sword was filled with frosty air, and was wiped with a wet rag. Although the blood was wiped off, the water droplets quickly condensed into ice on it, and it was necessary to find a dry rag and wipe it again.
"Ah, it's Miss Xiaoyu, are you okay over there?"
"No, it's okay. That person in the yard?"
"I don't know which organization transformed me into a monster. After I killed it, the evil spirit dissipated and returned to its original state." Thinking of the way the monster turned its head and had bloody eyeballs tied in its hair, he thought He still had goosebumps all over his body, "Fortunately, you didn't see what it looked like before it recovered. That's just one thing. Forget it, let's not talk about it. Besides, I won't be able to eat tomorrow."
"Are you guys okay?"
Dongfang Xiaoyu remembered the "Public Basic Course on Abnormalities" that she learned in school. It was mentioned in it that people from evil organizations would secretly capture people, stuff evil spirits into people's bodies, and turn people into all kinds of weird monsters.
After killing the monster, it will change back to its original appearance, looking just like the normal person who was killed.
Therefore, many masters of chivalry were mistakenly thought to be murderers by the local government after cleaning up monsters, and they were wanted on arrest warrants. This was quite unjust.
Only then did she realize. Just now, she thought Pei Mengqing's previous words were all lies, but in fact he was a murderous robber.
However, the most powerful evidence that Pei Mengqing is a good person is actually the two cats Juju and Xiaori.
In school, teachers also said that cats are the best companions given to mankind by God more than a hundred years ago. They are all cute and smart, and they will choose to follow the righteous to eradicate evil.
While Pei Mengqing was cleaning his sword, Xiaori left the room to find a place to bury the man.
The Orange Bureau is patrolling around to see if there are any traces of evil activities around.
Fortunately, only this monster appears tonight.
But, this is also strange.
It was discovered that the evil spirits on Lianggu Road disappeared, shouldn't it be Tianmeng Pavilion? The ones coming tonight should be from Tianmeng Pavilion.
But the people in Tianmeng Pavilion should have many talents in Liangzhou County. It seems that just sending such a monster is not as good as letting Dongfang Mingfu come back, which can at least keep Dongfang Xiaoyu tied up.
"Someone is coming!" Juju meowed as a reminder.
I saw a man covered in white robes, who looked like he was wearing linen and mourning, jumping into the yard. After seeing Ju Ju, he stopped and said:
"Clan of cats, from the orange cat faction?"
"Are you... from the Gate of Nothingness?"
Orange Bureau also identified the other party's identity through his clothing.
"Exactly."
Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu heard the sound and went out to the courtyard. However, when they saw the candles in the main room lit up, it was probably Xiaoyu's mother who was finally awakened by the "guests" coming and going in the courtyard.
So Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu turned around and blew out the candles and closed the door. They climbed over the courtyard wall and randomly found a big tree on the street.
"Did you send that monster just now?"
Pei Mengqing's right hand rested on the hilt of the sword. If the opponent had malicious intentions, he could draw the sword instantly.
"Yes, but no." The man in white robe stood opposite the two men, his posture relaxed, and he didn't seem to mean to take action, "I just cut off my beard."
"What evidence do you have?" Bureau Orange asked.
"There is no evidence, but originally it would not attack you, but would quietly observe you. After I cut off the Hu, the only change I made was to let him choose one of you for a sneak attack."
"Why don't you report to the people in your own organization?" Pei Mengqing suddenly asked.
His questions are somewhat cross-cutting. Most people ask questions from A to B, and then ask C based on B.
But after hearing what the other party said, Pei Mengqing quickly realized that this person from the Gate of Nothingness was probably very weak in Liangzhou County, and he was most likely the only person in their organization in Liangzhou County.
The mutated monster that Tianmeng Pavilion originally used to test Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu was cut off by this person and attacked Pei Mengqing. After Pei Mengqing fought back, the people in Tianmeng Pavilion thought it was Pei Mengqing and the others who discovered the surveillance, and took the initiative to take action. removal.
If the other party is allowed to monitor him and no clues are leaked on the surface, then it may not necessarily attract the attention of the people in Tianmeng Pavilion for the time being.
But now that Pei Mengqing has solved the monster, it shows that he and Dongfang Xiaoyu are not average in strength, and will definitely be put under special surveillance by Tianmeng Pavilion.
In this way, the two of them will confront Tianmeng Pavilion no matter what, and the goal of the Gate of Nothingness will be achieved.
Hearing Pei Mengqing's question, the people at the Gate of Nothingness were also stunned. They probably didn't expect Pei Mengqing to react so quickly.
"To show my sincerity, I will tell the truth. I am the only one from Gate of Nothingness here, and I was discovered by people from Tianmeng Pavilion. No one can help me deliver the message."
"Hmph, I guess it's about the same. However, it seems that your sincerity is not good enough to let monsters attack us and force us to take action and expose ourselves."
Pei Mengqing sneered, not believing this person's so-called sincerity at all.
He would rather believe that Qin Shihuang was resurrected and saw him in this world as a fellow villager who was willing to make him a general, rather than believe the lies of the people from these four evil organizations.
The people at the Gate of Nothingness were silent for a moment:
"It seems that you care about these foreign objects and superficial things. I think that under Tianmeng Pavilion's extermination conspiracy covering the entire Liangzhou County, alliance is the only way out."
