Possum corpses were piled up for several meters, extending deep into the cave like a city wall. Each corpse had the same expression.
"It came so quickly."
A hoarse voice came from behind the mountain of corpses, and then a tall and thin man walked out.
What surprised Ren Qing was that the man's eyes were replaced by two mouths, and there were eyes between the teeth, which looked extremely weird.
Huang Ziwan reminded softly: "This person's name is Jiang Feng, and his technique is also related to the pupils, but it is more of a curse, which can make people die suddenly."
Ren Qing nodded slightly, and the man quickly came over.
Huang Ziwan smiled and introduced: "Jiang Feng, this is the reserve member Ren Qing that I guarantee. He naturally has merits."
Jiang Feng's eyes lingered on Ren Qing's double pupils for a few seconds, and then he said: "Another half-corpse realm monk died last night. Let's go and see the body first."
Ren Qing's heart tightened. Even the intervention of the jailer did not prevent Lannini from being attacked and killed, which showed how difficult the opponent was.
Huang Ziwan said: "It should also be done by the monks of the Mud Society, otherwise how can we explain that there are so many corpses of Possum clones."
"When the first half-corpse realm monk died a few days ago, there were not so many rat corpses. This suddenly appeared last night."
They gradually approached the depths of the cave, and the air was filled with putrid stench.
Ren Qing looked around and found that there were several cave-like rooms nearby, which were probably inhabited by members of the Mud Society.
There are also a large number of bones of livestock piled up in the corner, which shows that the Mud Club eats well on weekdays.
Ren Qing consciously searched for clues, and he noticed that the possum corpse seemed to have died while fleeing in all directions.
According to Jiang Feng, a total of five monks from the Mud Gang died.
First, three warrior-level corpses were found in the stronghold in the north of the city, and then another half-corpse-level corpse was found in the south of the city.
At that time, after the jailer sealed the cave, a corpse in the half-corpse state appeared only two days later, and all the strange objects disappeared inexplicably.
As the three of them continued, the smell of blood from the corpses became stronger.
Jiang Feng suddenly stopped walking, and several simple houses appeared in front of them, which should have been home to many people.
A woman with disheveled hair walked out of the room, followed by an old man from the mud society who was half human and half rat.
The woman must also be a reserve soldier, her hair was squirming slightly like a living thing, and she was slightly surprised when she saw Ren Qing.
"Senior Jiang, all entrances and exits have been checked, and there are no traces."
Seeing this, Huang Ziwan said: "Yingjun, go check all the possum carcasses. If you find any, please notify us immediately."
Ying Jun quickly agreed.
When she came to the mountain of corpses, the hair on her head fell off and turned into a python as thick as her thumb and got into it.
Jiang Feng led Ren Qing into the house.
When Ren Qing entered the door, he saw the corpse kneeling on the ground in a horrified posture. He must have experienced extreme fear before death.
The ribs on his chest and abdomen showed a tendency to expand outwards, his internal organs had been hollowed out, and blood dripped from the wounds from time to time.
"Ren Qing, let's check it out."
Jiang Feng intends to test Ren Qing. After all, there is an extra reserve member in the mission, so the reward will naturally be divided a bit.
Ren Qing bent down to check the strangeness of the corpse.
He recalled his experience in the Jailor's Hall, where the monk from the Mud Society he met spit out the Possum clone from his mouth.
I don't know if the two are related.
Huang Ziwan looked at the old man from the Lianni Club and said, "Elder Qian, look at my memory, tell me more about the rat infestation strategy of the Lianni Club."
He mainly wanted to use this to remind Ren Qing that since he was inserting the other party into the task, he naturally did not want to appear to be ignorant and ignorant.
Elder Qian said honestly: "There will be two alienation routes after the rat plague is promoted to the half-corpse state, namely the rat mother and the plague."
"The Rat Mother mainly serves as a substitute for death, but usually the clone can't completely replace her until the main body is no longer alive."
"The plague is mainly caused by the plague virus. In order not to harm the lives of ordinary people, the number of alienated monks is small and under the control of the Jailer Hall."
Ren Qing's eyes narrowed.
In his opinion, there are three alienation routes for spells. There may be exceptions, but he has not encountered them so far.
I don’t know whether Elder Qian deliberately concealed it, or whether the Mud Society didn’t notice it at all.
Jiang Feng said slowly: "Are there so many rat corpses not caused by the rat plague?"
Elder Qian wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I recognize every monk in the gang, but the appearance of the corpse is really unfamiliar."
Ren Qing stared at Elder Qian and asked, "The monk who died a few days ago was a plague victim?"
Elder Qian nodded with an ugly expression. If the strange objects of the plague hunters form a restricted area, many people may be killed or injured.
If the Jailer Hall settles accounts because of this, the Mud Society will suffer a great disaster.
Huang Ziwan threatened: "Let the rats under your hands keep an eye on the city. If something happens, it will be too late."
"Okay, my lord."
Ren Qing didn't ask any more questions. He didn't even ask the Yamen about the dirty deeds of these gangs, so naturally it was not his turn to be a reserve.
He reached out and patted Elder Qian, and used the information flow to obtain the technique mastered by the other party.
【Qian Laosan】
[Age: forty-one]
[Shouyuan: twenty-three years]
[Skill: Rat Infestation Art (Blood-Feeding Rat Demon. Pseudo)]
The blood-feeding rat demon was promoted from the rat mother, but Elder Qian obviously relied on his cultivation in the ghost realm by swallowing strange objects.
Huang Ziwan said: "The reason why the body was disemboweled is probably because the person's intention was to kill the strange thing that caused the rat infestation."
"Elder Qian, are you sure there are no problems within the Mud Society?"
Elder Qian said solemnly: "Even if I use magic, I can't reach this level..."
Huang Ziwan couldn't help but ask: "Can't the Rat Mother produce clones in large quantities?"
Elder Qian shook his head and said: "After the clone turns into a human form, the main body will die, and finally the clone will survive instead of the main body."
"unless……"
Elder Qian's expression was slightly hesitant, but Ren Qing continued what he said: "Unless the clone cannot affect the main body."
In fact, what Ren Qing said was not complete. If the body has never lived, there will be no death.
Elder Qian muttered to himself in disbelief: "But how is that possible?"
Ren Qing pointed at the corpse and said: "The murderer took out the strange object and directly chose to eat it. After being promoted to a rat mother, he used magic like crazy."
Jiang Feng frowned and said, "Then why did the people who died a few days ago were plague victims?"
Ren Qing said hesitantly: "Maybe he is looking for the rat mother's strange thing."
Huang Ziwan said gloomily: "Why do I feel that he is not very satisfied? Otherwise, he would not have created so many Possum clones..."
Elder Qian's expression changed drastically. Could it be that he wanted to obtain the strange object of the Blood-feeding Rat Demon?
He hurriedly said goodbye and left, preparing to alert the Mud Society.
Jiang Feng didn't care. How could the Ghost Envoy die so easily? Besides, she was a rat mother who was famous for her survival.
They continued to look for clues and even tore down the wall panels.
At this moment, Ying Jun's cry came from outside the house: "There is a rat man left alive, it is alive!!!"
