The monster specializes in poking people's hearts, but there is no pattern. At the beginning, the victims were all men, so everyone thought she was a succubus who specialized in sucking the essence of men.
But then the deceased turned into a young woman again, and everyone thought she only ate young people.
As a result, within two days, the old man appeared again among the deceased.
Everyone couldn't figure out the pattern at all. In addition, the demon god appeared and disappeared, and they couldn't catch it at all.
Even if I want to set up a bait to trick her into coming, I don’t know what bait to use.
The dead were all men, women, old and young, rich and poor, good and bad. In short, they had nothing in common, and it was impossible to find a bait that met the standards of a monster.
So when night falls, the whole town is in panic, the doors and windows are closed, and there is no one on the street. At first glance, it looks like a ghost town.
However, even so, it still couldn't stop the monster from harming people.
After speaking, Liu Zhixian let out a long sigh, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of hot tea to calm down his shock.
Lou Jinhuan and others also fell silent.
She and Huo Fulai looked at each other, "Tear your heart out, what kind of monster could it be? A fox monster? Or a snake monster?"
"General demons have low magical power, so they need to eat people's hearts and absorb human essences as food, and take shortcuts to practice. If they are big demons, they usually feed on similar species, miasma poisons, or spiritual energy plants, and the training methods are also very different. So there is good and evil.”
Huo Fulai explained patiently that he didn't need to say so much, but he was afraid that Liu Zhixian wouldn't understand, so he said more.
Liu Zhixian thought thoughtfully, "So maybe the one in our town is a little demon?"
"That's not necessarily true. Some great demons also feed on people's hearts. Besides, there is no distinction between good and evil. Demons are just demons. We cultivators should kill them when we encounter them to nip them in the bud."
Mu Ran suddenly spoke, his tone as cold as spitting ice.
Everyone else looked over, their expressions a little embarrassed for a moment.
Lou Jinhuan frowned. If she just thought Mu Ran was a bit more upright before, she felt less good now.
Everyone is divided into good and evil, why not demons?
【001, Has Mu Ran ever encountered anything? 】
001 checked, [Well, judging from the background information, her sister died in the hands of a monster, and was later rescued by the elders of Xuanyang Sect and brought back to Xuanyang Sect. 】
Lou Jinhuan understood, [No wonder. 】
If this is the case, we can understand where her resentment comes from.
Seeing her sister being killed by a monster with her own eyes, it was hard not to hate her. It was understandable to be extreme, but she didn't agree with it.
It was hard to tell whether the others agreed or disapproved, but it was obvious that they didn't want to get in trouble with Mu Ran, and no one said anything.
Liu Zhixian was even more at a loss and looked at Huo Fulai as if asking for help.
Huo Fulai said quietly: "Take us to see the body of the deceased first."
"Okay, okay!" Liu Zhixian immediately jumped up and led the way, wishing he could stay far away from them.
Because evidence needed to be preserved, the magistrate had people separate the bodies in advance and put them in a shady room with several ice basins inside. It was autumn and it wasn't that hot, so the bodies still looked fresh. , as if he had just died.
There wasn't much of a smell when I went in.
Liu Zhixian opened the door and waved his hand: "This is it. All the bodies are here."
Lou Jinhuan followed him in, and as soon as he lowered his head, he met the eyes of the corpse beside the door.
Lou Jinhuan: "..."
Liu Zhixian was also shocked, "Who told them to show off like this?! Damn, it's so scary!"
Huo Fu looked at Lou Jinhuan and took a step forward without leaving any trace, blocking Lou Jinhuan behind him.
