The merit system of the city

"What are you looking at, don't work!"

Hu Cheng cursed at the people around him.

He didn't know when there was an extra whip in his hand, and he swung it towards the people around him.

Suddenly, there was a scream.

These people were captured by them outside, and they were specially used to build altars.

Around the altar, there are many bones.

These bones are the people who died here.

In addition to these people, there are some monster-like corpses.

Those are the Yaozu people who have recovered their real bodies, and there are even two from the Fox clan.

"Sir, spare your life!"

The people around couldn't stand the torture and begged for mercy one after another.

These people are sallow and thin, and basically they don't live long.

Hu Cheng will not let them live for too long, the longest one or two years, sometimes a month or even a few days.

"If you don't want to die now, do it for me! Useless things!"

These dozen people lowered their heads and continued to work here.

Hu Cheng walked all the way inside and came to a luxurious palace.

He was half kneeling on the ground and said to the palace, "Master, I'm back."

"come in!"

A majestic voice came.

crunch--

The door opens slowly without wind.

At the door stood two figures in white robes.

Hu Cheng shook his body, glanced at the two men in white robes, gritted his teeth and walked into the door.

Bang!

When he walked in, the door closed.

inside the gate.

Hu Cheng knelt on the ground.

In front of him was a man in a white robe.

The man in white robe sat on a jade bed.

Strangely, the man in white robe had one eye closed and the other open.

The pupil of the open eye is red.

Hu Cheng was stared at by the red pupil, trembling all over, prostrate on the ground, not daring to move.

"Master, it was because of my lack of strength that I didn't catch him back."

After Hu Cheng spoke, the surrounding area was still quiet.

The quiet Hu Cheng could hear his own heartbeat.

"It doesn't matter, they will come to your door anyway."

After a long time, there was a voice that seemed to float down from the sky.

……

Xu Lai rode a three-way bicycle, slowly heading for the town all the way.

Soon, he saw an old man working.

"Old man, why is there no one around here?"

The uncle's temper was also very hot, and he said angrily: "Don't you know, they are all dead!"

"This ghostly year, it's inexplicable, young man, you should get out of here quickly, Feng Shui is bad!"

The old man waved his hands again and again, and didn't want to say anything more, so he left after speaking.

Xu came to ask him, but he ignored it.

"What's going on? There are too few people in this town."

He didn't see many people along the way, not even one young man, and only two or three old people.

"Is it really bad Feng Shui here?"

Xu Lai looked around subconsciously.

"No, there is nothing wrong with the Feng Shui pattern in a radius of tens of miles, and it is impossible to cause inexplicable deaths."

The more he looked, the more confused Xu Lai became.

I don't understand at all why it happened like this.

Just like Ms. Song, there was an invisible big hand that sucked away the life force in a radius of tens of miles.

Let the whole town look weak.

The tricycle soon came to the town.

There are more people in the town.

I can't see anything unusual, there are a lot of young people.

But everyone looked quite serious.

Not as relaxing and enjoyable as other townships.

He came to the vegetable market.

It's just past eight o'clock in the morning, and the vegetable market should be crowded with people.

But the fact is just the opposite.

Even now, there are not many people here.

"Get some tofu—and some cilantro—"

Betty wants to eat hot pot, let him buy some hot pot dishes.

"More duck blood."

As a vampire, it is impossible to eat hot pot without eating blood.

It is also strange that ordinary vampires are difficult to digest when eating ordinary food, and most of them will be spit out in the back.

Betty had no such thing.

It can only be said that Betty's Brunn family bloodline is really strong.

"Young man, did you just come back from outside?"

Seeing that Xu Lai had bought a lot, the vegetable seller asked with a smile.

"Yes, I just came back and found that there are so few people at home, it's quite boring."

Xu Lai said with a smile.

"Be bored and bear it, it's better than disappearing inexplicably."

The aunt took the money, looked at Xu Lai and said.

"Disappeared inexplicably?"

Xu Lai wanted to continue asking, but the aunt waved her hand, not wanting to say more

He looked around and found that there were fewer men around.

Basically all women.

Going down, he saw a bulletin board.

The bulletin board is actually full of missing people.

There are more than a dozen notices posted here alone!

"So many people are missing here, no one has checked?"

Xu Lai asked an old man next to the bulletin board.

"Check, why is no one checking, but after checking, even the law enforcement officers are missing."

"How can we check this?"

The uncle took a puff of his cigarette and sighed.

"So, now, all the young people who can run have run away, and only us old men are left."

The old man has a bad temper and speaks very aggressively, so Xu Lai couldn't communicate with him too much.

-

Xu Lai bought good vegetables and rode a tricycle back to the village.

"Basically, it has been confirmed that it is definitely related to Hu Cheng and those people."

I just don't know where Hu Cheng took him.

How did he know that those people are either dead, or they are all working hard in the cave.

"I am back!"

Xu Lai parked his tricycle, got out of the car with a large bag of things.

"Wow, you are so slow, did you bring me something?"

Betty is in good shape, but very flexible, and in a flash, she came to Xu Lai.

Sniffing with his small nose, he finally showed a satisfied smile after finding duck blood.

"Bring them all, you can eat freely."

Although Madam Song passed away, it didn't affect her very much.

"Be happy at home, and you, Madam Song, are even happier."

Liu Liming smiled to dispel everyone's concerns.

Then Xu Lai started to arrange the ingredients.

Aunt Zhou also took out many fresh vegetables and mushrooms from the ground.

Liu Liming even killed a chicken on the spot to make the hot pot soup base.

in the room.

Liu Jingjing stood there blankly.

She held the little dress in her hand.

Scrub lightly.

Xu Lai walked to the side, but she didn't seem to notice.

"Don't think too much, live the present moment is what you should do."

Xu Lai didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only say something weakly.

Liu Jingjing nodded, ready to put away her clothes.

At this time, Xu Lai's heart moved, and he said: "Jingjing, you can input a burst of true energy to see."

"What do you mean?" Liu Jingjing was a little puzzled.

Liu Mengxue also walked in at this time.

"I can't tell, you can enter your true energy to see."

Liu Jingjing obediently input her true energy.

and nothing has changed.

Xu Lai was a little puzzled, since that man can fly in the air, it is not easy.

That being the case, don't you really plan to explain something to your children?

This is too indifferent.

"Let me tell you, there won't be any reaction."

Liu Jingjing was even more disappointed.

Every time there was a little more hope, there were more disappointments for her that awaited her.
