It is said that on the night when Wei Tong met Song Xin, Wei Qi and his party went to this inn to rest. They were all tired from walking. The guards thought that there would be no trouble here because the postmen were guarding them, so they found a place to fall asleep.

But late at night, screams suddenly resounded throughout the inn, and everyone who was sleeping was awakened by the sound. The guards rubbed their eyes and got up to check, but as soon as they went out they saw a scene that frightened them.

Wei Qi was parked in the large car in the courtyard, stretching out his legs, still shaking slightly, while the harsh sound of broken bones kept coming from the car.

At this time, Wei Qi walked out of the house and shouted loudly: "What happened?"

"Sir...Sir, in the car..." A guard pointed at the car with his teeth chattering.

When Wei Qi saw it, he also took a breath of cold air.

At this moment, a leg fell into the snow with a clatter. It looked like the stump of a postman.

At the same time, he was shocked to find that his concubine Qiu'er was also missing!

At this time, a gust of wind blew, the curtain of the car was opened, and a guard shouted: "Look, Mr.... Mr.... Madam... Madam, she..."

At this time, everyone saw clearly that there seemed to be a woman in the car, who seemed to be Qiu'er, the concubine.

"You, go take a look." Wei Qi pointed to a guard.

"I...?" The man was stunned, but he did not dare to disobey the young master. He took a torch and walked to the car cautiously.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard the sound of chewing food inside.

"Husband... madam, young master..."

The sound in the car stopped suddenly.

There were soft sobs and strange whimpers, and then a shrill female laugh, like fingernails scraping against metal.

The guard had the courage to use a knife to open the curtain. His eyes widened in fear and he felt a warmth in his crotch.

A woman squatted in the car, holding a postman's head in her hand, feasting...

"Ah!!!" the guard yelled, rolling and crawling back, but his legs were so frightened that he collapsed directly on the ground, but his survival instinct still drove him to crawl on the ground.

But at this time, the woman in the car jumped out like a monkey, rode on the guard, raised her hand, and scratched his back with a strange smile. The leather armor worn by the guard was actually like Qiu'er's nails. Tear like paper.

When the other guards and Wei Qi saw this scene, they were so frightened that they stared blankly, at a loss. The guard on the ground was frightened and injured. He didn't know whether he was dead or fainted. He lay motionless on the ground.

Qiu'er raised her head, but her appearance made everyone take a breath.

"Hehe..." Her joking laughter was like a cat's claws scratching her heart.

At this time, Qiu'er's palms and soles were surprisingly large, and one-inch long black sharp nails grew out. Her eye sockets were sunken, her face turned blue, her eyes turned yellowish brown, and her hair was almost all gone, and she still looked as pretty as before.

If he wasn't still wearing Qiu'er's clothes, he wouldn't be able to recognize the same person at all. There were still marks of black oil in her ears and nostrils.

When the guards saw Qiu'er in this state, they couldn't help but take a few steps back. The guard closest to her was so frightened that he turned around and ran away.

But Qiu'er stepped up and chased behind the escaping guard. She hugged him tightly from behind with her arms.

A strong man was so frightened that he cried like a child. Qiu'er opened her mouth and bit down on his neck, and a piece of flesh and blood was torn off along with the neck bone.

The man's eyes suddenly widened and he fell forward to the ground, his whole body shaking, his wide eyes still telling of fear and unwillingness.

Wei Qi was also frightened and shouted an order: "Quickly, kill her quickly." He was so frightened that he completely forgot that Liu Jing had given him several life-saving charms.

The guards looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't dare to come forward.

At this time, Qiu'er suddenly spoke: "Jie Jie, young master, this is Qiu'er, why are you so cruel." The words were pitiful, but the sound stimulated everyone's eardrums to hurt and their hearts to beat wildly.

Wei Qi shouted again: "Whoever kills her will be rewarded with a hundred gold pieces and ten hectares of fertile land."

Only then did the guards become concerned. With so many people on their side, they were still very scared. After saying that, a group of guards drew their swords and rushed over.

When Wei Qi saw them fighting in a group, not only did he not want to help, but he secretly found a horse, got on it and ran away. He wants to find those soldiers from the past, they can definitely help!

Just as he rode out of the inn a few feet away, Wei Qi suddenly felt a pair of hands on his shoulders. He turned around and saw an unfamiliar woman with black eyes and black hair all over her body sitting behind him. The pale face is smiling at myself...

Wei Qi was shocked and found that the scenery in front of him suddenly changed...then he felt a sharp object stabbing his head and fainted.

...

When Wei Tong saw the postman waving torches, he also raised his hand to signal and ordered everyone to speed up their pace.

At this time, Song Xin suddenly grabbed Wei Tong and said, "Brother Wei, there is something wrong with the station ahead."

Wei Tong was startled: "Brother Xian, what's wrong?"

"Look at that postman."

Wei Tong took a closer look and saw that the postman had a smile on his face, but the smile was a little weird and stiff, as if a smile was made by pulling the muscles on a person's face. And this smile has never changed, it's like wearing a mask with a scary smile.

Song Ya and Li Cheng also felt something was wrong in the atmosphere, so they came over and said, "Brother, why is there only one person here?"

Wei Tong immediately ordered the team to stop, "Well, it is indeed a bit weird."

Seeing that everyone had stopped moving forward, the postman was still waving the torch mechanically, and the smile on his face did not change at all.

Wei Tong told a close aide beside him, "Go and take a look first. Be careful. If there is any danger, come back immediately."

"No!" the soldier ordered. Without thinking, he flicked the reins and the horse galloped out towards the inn.

When he approached the postman, the man was still waving the torch, as if he hadn't seen the soldiers coming. He walked around the postman, took a look at the door again, turned his horse's head and ran back.

From beginning to end, the postman didn't even look at him, or even blink.

"Your Majesty, Captain, I don't know what's going on. That postman looks like... like a doll..."

"What about the rest?"

"No...gone."

"!!!" Everyone was surprised. Looking over again, the postman still looked the same, waving the torch mechanically.

"Can you see clearly?"

"Look clearly, there's no one there."

Song Xin said at this time: "Brother Wei, let me go and take a look. Maybe I can find something else."

Wei Tong frowned and said, "Something's not right here. Li Cheng, you and the civilian husband stay and wait while the crossbowmen guard the surroundings."

"Okay! Be careful." Li Cheng agreed.

Wei Tong didn't bring many people, but they were all well-trained. They dispersed around the team,

"Load the crossbows, unlock the knives, and deploy defenses on all sides!" A leader of Wei Tong's team ordered.

The soldiers unbuckled their knives and cocked their crossbows almost at the same time.

Being guarded by these well-trained and well-equipped soldiers gave the originally nervous civilians a lot of peace of mind.

Song Xin turned to Tuoye and said, "Follow Brother Li Cheng, there will be no danger."

Tuoye said: "Well, be careful."

Wei Tong walked over with Song Ya and Song Xin. When we arrived at the door of the post station, the postman was still waving the torch. Song Ya stepped forward and gave a gentle push. The man shook twice and fell on his back with a pop, but the smile on his face remained and his arms were still waving in the snow...

Song Xin released his consciousness and found that there was no one here, but he saw the car Wei Qi was riding in, which was still parked inside.
