Dried fingers and tails?

Xie Wangyan was startled by the answer at first, and then he carefully observed the two things that fell on the ground... Sure enough, as Ye Qingxue said, they were indeed a tail and fingers.

It looked as if it had been chopped off.

Neat cuts...

He looked up at Butcher Zhang's roof beam. This thing had been hidden in a box and placed on the roof.

"...Could it be Butcher Zhang's own tail and fingers?" Xie Wangyan couldn't help but ask.

Of course he remembered that in tonight's dream, the butcher picture not only had an extra finger, but also a pig's tail.

I originally thought it was a weird distortion in a dream, but now it seems that maybe it’s not the case?

Ye Qingxue kicked these two things away, looking very disgusted at them. He did not let go of the hand holding Xie Wayan's collar, "It's bad luck."

"...If you don't want to, you can go back to sleep now." Xie Wangyan muttered.

He finally saw that Ye Qingxue really didn't like this house.

Ever since he entered Butcher Zhang's house, he had always found the place unpleasant, and had been standing at the door unwilling to come in... He took a look at the other person's current attire, which was completely different from the way he looked before wearing fur clothes in the wasteland.

His hair was still untied and messily spread over his shoulders. Coupled with the little beggar look he had pretended to be before, he didn't look like someone with mysophobia.

"...Did you discover something?" Xie Wangyan asked suspiciously.

He observed the room himself and felt that there was a lingering rancid smell in the room, mixed with the smell of blood and the residual smell of sewer. Although the smell was so bad that it made him want to retching, it was not like Ye Qingxue. Showed obvious disgust.

Ye Qingxue snorted when she heard this.

He stretched out his hand and pinched Xie Yanyan's face, and pulled hard, "Are you starting to chase people away now?"

He threatened, "Forgot who rescued you from the Pig Man before?"

He seemed to be a moody person by nature, and now he looked at Xie Wangyan and said sadly, "I think you will have to be taken away by these pigs to get married and give birth to a litter of piglets before you will be honest."

"...Haha, there is reproductive isolation between humans and pigs." Xie Wangyan couldn't help but complain.

Although Ye Qingxue didn't understand the specific meaning of these words, she roughly understood what Xie Wayan wanted to express.

He gave Xie Yanyan a meaningful look and laughed, "What if it's a monster turned into a pig?"

No way!

Xie Wangyan subconsciously looked at Butcher Zhang's room, "You mean that Butcher Zhang is the child of a pig demon?"

Then he still kills pigs!

"I didn't say that." Ye Qingxue said.

"There is no evil spirit in this room." Xie Wangyan's conjecture was denied.

Seeing that the monster's guess didn't work, Xie Huanyan remembered the strange appearance of the old man just now - after being caught by Ye Qingxue, his eyes turned white and he screamed like a pig, and then he fell to the ground on all fours and flew away. Run away quickly.

It looked like it was possessed by something evil.

As for whether Butcher Zhang really has an extra finger and a pig tail, it seems that we can only find out tomorrow by asking the people at Taiqing Villa or the residents of Sifang Town.

……

"Are you asking Butcher Zhang?"

Xie Wangyan found the senior sister from Taiqing Villa early the next morning.

The other party seemed to have heard about what happened to Xie Yanyan yesterday, and soon found the boy from yesterday, "Junior brother also happened to dream about Zhang Butcher yesterday."

Because these two people were the only ones of the right age among the two sects, Yan Lu exchanged information with the people at Taiqing Villa early this morning. However, since the Chongtian Sect were all alchemy cultivators and were better at assisting, they did not send any monks of the right age. Come.

When Xie Wangyan heard that the young man also dreamed about Butcher Zhang, he looked at him curiously, "Did you also dream about Butcher Zhang yesterday?"

The young man nodded and succinctly recounted yesterday's dream.

His dream was very different from Xie Huanyan's. After getting on the sedan chair, he was carried to the ancestral hall, and then Butcher Zhang appeared.

"But there is one difference." The young man said, "The Butcher Zhang I saw was the rotten appearance of a walking corpse, not a young man with an intact face."

Although Butcher Zhang in Xie Huanyan's dream tore off the painting's skin at the end, he still maintained his human form for a while.

This also allowed him to clearly see the pig's tail and the extra finger.

So he asked about it again, and sure enough, the young man showed a thoughtful expression and said that he had not noticed it because the Butcher Zhang in his dream had changed beyond recognition and looked very disgusting, so he did not observe it carefully.

"You said that the people in Sifang Town hang white lanterns at the door of every house." The senior sister said, "I heard that only when someone in the family dies, white lanterns will be hung in Sifang Town."

"Not every household has paper-cut figures," the young man reminded, "but I heard that ordinary people would burn the paper-cut figures of a boy and a girl."

This is also what Xie Wangyan finds strange.

Why are white lanterns hung in every house?

But paper-cut people are not found in every household? Is it possible that there is something else to pay attention to?

"But people in Sifang Town may know." Senior Sister added, she told Xie Wangyan, "Today we are going to find the people in Sifang Town to find out what exactly those people who survived saw in their dreams."

“Of course there’s also the tradition of those white lanterns and paper-tied people.”

After hearing this, Xie Wangyan immediately expressed his willingness to go together.

Yan Lu nodded, so Kunlun and several people from Taiqing Villa decided to go together.

……

Xie Wangyan looked at the girl who was about the same age as himself. She had obviously not recovered from the shadow of those few days.

Although their expressions were very polite when they saw them, there was inevitably a hint of panic in their expressions.

So it was up to the senior sister to ask her, asking her carefully about the details of that day's dream.

The girl hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "That day in my dream, I saw the dead butcher Zhang and the pigs carrying the sedan chair. I remembered the rumors in the town, so I immediately pushed away the pigs and ran away. .”

"Then I was lucky enough to save a small life."

Xie Wangyan didn't expect that this matter was so simple, and the senior sister was obviously a little surprised, because according to Xie Wangyan and the young man, the butcher Zhang in the dream was extremely difficult to deal with, although the pig carrying the sedan chair just looked at it and couldn't do it. What, but the girl’s method of escaping was too simple.

"Didn't Butcher Zhang do anything else?" Xie Yanyan couldn't help but ask, "Didn't he chase you?"

The girl was suddenly startled. She glanced at these immortals carefully, and after a moment she seemed to recall something, "...I heard him seem to say something."

"what?"

"He said..." the girl recalled, "it's not you."
