"Suspected to have died at the hands of a strange creature?"
Song Xing put down the book and murmured something repeatedly, the doubt in his eyes difficult to conceal.
If the memory is correct, Longmen Escort Manmen and Du Dajin should have accepted the escort entrusted by Yin Susu to escort Yu Daiyan, one of the Seven Heroes of Wudang, back to Wudang Mountain. As a result, the escort went wrong and Yin Susu angered him. The whole family is extinct.
Why is it that the information recorded by the Haisha Sect now shows that there seems to be a hidden secret behind the Longmen Escort's murder case?
What is the strange thing? Or is it a ghost?
Song Xing's mind subconsciously reflected on the strange black mist that had just swallowed up and corroded the true energy in his body.
This world seems to be more than just a pure martial arts world. Could there be more weird and unknown dangers?
So when one's own true energy is temporarily unable to be used, can the Hunyuan Gong alone be used to deal with the so-called strange things?
Hunyuan Gong once again began to operate in the body according to his modified movement route. The most urgent task was to find out the reason why the world could not use Qi in order to restore its strength as soon as possible.
Song Xing was also curious about the so-called strange thing. It seemed to be an unnatural force, but he didn't know which one was stronger or weaker compared to the internal force cultivated in this world!
Song Xing raised his right hand and flicked his index finger towards the rain in front of him.
A white hole suddenly appeared in the air, evenly cutting the rain curtain in half, leaving a deep mark on the ground, and then smashing a three-foot-wide stone dozens of meters away.
Although he cannot use the true energy in his body, his strong body that has been tempered many times has not been suppressed by the strange power of this world.
After a small trial, the air pressure alone produced incredible results.
The sound of stones exploding was particularly harsh in the rain. Tsing Yi flashed outside the corridor in the distance. The deacon in Tsing Yi who had retreated appeared again at the end of the corridor, looking in this direction.
Song Xing thought for a while, waved to him, and called him forward.
"Master, what are your orders?"
Deacon Tsing Yi came to Song Xing and was very respectful.
The Haisha Gang has been rooted in Lin'an City for a long time, and the gang has a strict hierarchy. In addition to the gang leader Yuan Guangbo, it has four hall masters and eight altar masters, known as the four beams and eight pillars. Each hall master is responsible for two altar masters. The ten deacon leaders are responsible for various matters within the gang.
Deacon Tsing Yi is one of Song Xing's deacons. His name is Chi Xin. Although his martial arts skills are average, he is most familiar with the affairs of Lin'an City, including intelligence and personnel.
Chi Xin was a little frightened by the rubble outside the rain curtain, but Song Xing was standing in front of him respectfully and respectfully, waiting for questions.
Song Xing threw the book to him and asked, "On the last page of the book, Longmen Escort Bureau died at the hands of a strange thing. What does it mean?"
Hearing the word "weird thing", Chi Xin's body trembled subconsciously, and soon returned to normal. His throat squirmed a few times, he took a deep breath, and slowly said: "Report to the hall master, the theory of "weird thing" is Yang's. When the hall master sent people to the government, he accidentally heard it from the mouth of a widower, but there was no proof. Perhaps it was just an excuse for the government's inability to solve the case. I have been in Lin'an City for decades and have not heard any traces of strange things. "
Song Xing looked at the rainwater on the ground, which quickly filled up the plow marks on the ground, forming a small ditch. He asked again casually: "I haven't heard of Lin'an City. That is to say, outside Lin'an City, Have you ever heard of spooks?"
Chi Xin hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "I have heard some fragments of it."
Song Xing clapped his hands and said, "Tell me, what is the weird thing?"
Chi Xin said: "The theory of weird objects appeared decades ago when the Southern Dynasty collapsed. The so-called weird objects mean mysterious and abnormal objects. There is no fixed form in the rumors in the world. It may be a weapon, book, etc. An artifact, or some kind of animal, or something resembling a humanoid.”
"These mysterious and abnormal objects often have some incredible special abilities. Even people in the world who have cultivated their inner strength often die in confusion due to the abilities of the mysterious objects."
"When strange objects first appeared in the world, both the people and the Yuan Dynasty lacked awareness of them, so they caused a large number of casualties. It was not until the past ten years that the rumors about strange objects gradually disappeared."
Hearing this, Song Xing frowned: "Will strange things take the initiative to attack people?"
Chi Xin nodded and said: "Where there are strange things, if there are people by chance, there is a high probability that there will be casualties."
Song Xing asked again: "Are there any rules to follow for the characteristics of these strange things?"
Chi Xin shook his head and said: "According to records, these strange objects appear suddenly and disappear inexplicably, without any rules. It is said that some people have encountered strange objects in the wild mountains and forests in the outskirts of the city."
Having said this, he seemed to remember something, and bowed slightly to Song Xing and said, "Master, please wait for a moment."
After saying that, he hurried away and turned around quickly after a moment, holding something in his hand.
"Master, please take a look. This "History of Strange Things" is a strange book compiled by a strange man in Dadu ten years ago based on folk rumors. It records all kinds of strange things that have appeared in various places over the past decades. Because I have no idea about these things, I was very interested and tried my best to find a copy."
Song Xing took the book and saw three dark and twisted seal characters on the cover: Strange Things!
"In July of the eleventh year of the Yuan Dynasty, a black iron carriage came from the west and entered Pingjiang City. The next day, 150,000 households in Pingjiang City were wiped out!"
"In February of the twelfth year of the Yuan Dynasty, the Sakya Tibetan Temple in Liupan Mountain was closed during the day. Three days later, the door was opened. A towering tree appeared in the temple. All four hundred monks in the temple disappeared. Emperor Yuan sent people to cut down the giant tree. A large amount of blood-stained bones and Buddhist beads were found in the body!"
"In May of the 13th year of the Yuan Dynasty, Qian Changle, the head of the Yanxing Sect, stayed overnight at the Liangshan Mountain Temple. The next day, he obtained a rare treasure and greatly improved his skills. He annihilated his old enemy Xuanzhi Sect in one fell swoop and shocked the world. The world was moved by the wind, and hundreds of warriors He went to Liangshan and all died. The next year, Qian Changle died suddenly. His death was strange and he looked like an evil ghost!"
"In September of the 14th year of the Yuan Dynasty, a pontoon bridge appeared overnight at the Yellow River ferry. The government sent people to investigate to no avail. A month later, the pontoon mysteriously disappeared. Everyone who stepped on the bridge that night was turned into ashes! "
"In October of the seventeenth year of the Yuan Dynasty, an evil spirit entered the Hanyang military camp, devoured thousands of people, and disappeared. A huge blood pit was left in place and a fountain of blood emerged. The camp commander ordered people to fill the blood pit, and he died suddenly the next day!"
Song Xing flipped through the book in his hand page by page. The handwriting inside was all written with blood-red cinnabar. Each record would describe a strange event that really happened, and the strange things in it were different. .
The only thing that is the same is that the appearance of each strange thing represents a large number of deaths, and the death methods are weird and inexplicable, making it difficult to guard against!
Even people like Song Xing, after reading this record, felt a slight chill on their backs, because the way these strange creatures kill people is just as mysterious and mysterious as the name suggests!
Seeing Song Xing finish reading the "Stories of Strange Things" in his hand, Chi Xin gave him a careful look, and then said: "Although the Longmen Escort Agency was closed down by the government, the deaths of thirty-seven people do not seem to be caused by strange things. It may or may not be the work of Wudang Zhang Cuishan. He said that people in Longmen Escort died in strange ways. Perhaps he was afraid of offending the Wudang sect, so he lied and claimed that it was strange things that killed people."
Song Xing raised his head and looked at the sky. It had been raining for an hour, and the drizzle gradually stopped. He simply got up and walked out: "Yes or no, you will know after just asking. Take me to find that gangster." (End of Chapter)
