Lu Xiaofeng and the others asked Qin Dada about the location of the Blackwater Temple, and they were about to go together, but before they left, the porter reported that the villagers of Matou Village were making trouble outside, and wanted to let the person who killed their chief come out.

"Nonsense!" Qin Da waved his sleeves angrily, and ordered his servants to drive them away.

"Wait a minute." Lu Xiaofeng stopped, "Palace Master Qin, why don't we go out and have a look."

Qin Dada didn't refuse, and followed him and Huamanlou out.

"Aren't you going to take a look?" Yu Xi asked Ximen Chuuxue beside him, probably because yesterday's conversation had an effect, he felt much more relaxed, and it was easier for the two of them to get along.And this matter sounds like it has something to do with the two of them, "Could it be the group of people yesterday?"

Without saying a word, Ximen Chuuxue wrapped his arms around his waist and went directly to the roof, stepping on the tiles and jumping onto the gate.

"I said that you are a hero after all, can you not move your feet?" Yu Xi slapped the hand on his waist when he stood still, "Stay away from me three meters from now on, or cast a curse Curse you not to lift it." It is very clever to do what it says.

Ximen Chuuxue pinched his chin, making him turn his head to look down.

"..." After a while, I went to buy materials and used them for casting a spell.

Just as Yu Xi guessed, the villagers of Matou Village outside the City Lord's Mansion are the same people who besieged him and Ximen Chuuxue yesterday.And now, they were carrying the body of the old man who was the leader yesterday, clamoring at the door to arrest the murderer.

"This is your commander?" Lu Xiaofeng walked over to take a look at the corpse, sealed his throat with a sword, there was no deviation, it was indeed done by Jianghu people.

"Yes!" replied a farmer, staring at him with hatred and great vigilance.

Lu Xiaofeng wanted to squat down to examine the wound on the neck of the dead body carefully, but the group of people rioted again, yelling not to let him touch the dead body, and to let him hand over the murderer.

"Who the murderer is, you have the final say." Lu Xiaofeng pushed away a sickle that was about to reach out to him with his fingers, and looked at the crowd with a smile, "The law of the Ming Dynasty stipulated that anyone who gathers a crowd to make trouble, regardless of the reason, will be imprisoned for half a month and severely punished." Thirty boards. What is the purpose of gathering here if you don’t go to the Yamen to report a homicide?”

Imprisonment and thirty boards seem to have a deterrent effect on some rural villagers, but it can be seen from their expressions that they still firmly believe that Ximen Chuuxue, or these few Jianghu people from other places, are the murderers.

Hua Manlou stood beside Lu Xiaofeng, and looked behind him slightly.

This time, Anfeng and the others naturally came out as well. After receiving the instruction, they rushed to the yamen as quickly as possible to invite the county magistrate from Zhige City.There are such indiscriminate mobs under the rule, it is really worthy of being brought in front of our young master to guide and guide how to be an official.

"Just now, I want to ask everyone." Lu Xiaofeng walked around the corpse and looked at those people again, "You said we came to snatch the treasure, I want to know who told you this." Otherwise, a group of crops Han, how do you know how many of them are there?

Now it seems that the person behind the scenes is obviously trying to trip them, or there is something ghost in the black water temple.

Fortunately, Pi Wu and Sikong were allowed to go to Yiliu Valley first.

But along the way, they probably won't be peaceful.

The magistrate of Cheng County quickly rushed over with his troops. The government generally held a disdainful attitude towards people in the Jianghu, and the magistrate obviously didn't know Lu Xiaofeng, so he put on a lot of official authority when he came, like Lu Xiaofeng As I said before, if you don't say anything, you must take everyone back to the Yamen according to the law.

"Cheng magistrate." Qin Dada came out to speak first, he stopped in front of the magistrate, pointed to Lu Xiaofeng and said, "This is Lu Xiaofeng, a well-known chivalrous detective in the world, they are currently staying in my residence temporarily, this murder case If something happens suddenly, it’s better to investigate carefully first.”

The magistrate of Cheng ignored Qin Da and casually laughed, obviously not paying attention to Qin Dada, and still let the policemen do it.

Lu Xiaofeng stood beside Huamanlou, glanced at Qin Dada, and saw the restrained anger in his narrowed eyes.

Tsk, sure enough, another place of right and wrong has come.

The police guarded the people and walked towards them, Lu Xiaofeng flicked a finger to make them stop, and before Cheng Zhixian got angry, he said:

"My lord, it's also the first time we've seen the dead. If you want to arrest us, you probably don't have enough reasons. If you don't believe me, you can ask them if they have seen us before?"

Among those people, there were a few upright ones who stared and said nothing, and someone shouted that it wasn't them, it was someone in white clothes with big eyes.

The magistrate of Cheng County glared at the commoners with a livid face, unable to hold back his face, and ordered the police to find the white clothes and big eyes immediately.

Lu Xiaofeng looked up at Ximen Chuuxue on the gate tower, and nodded to him, telling him to stay and deal with the situation here.But he and Hua Manlou ignored the indiscriminate Cheng Zhixian who didn't look like a good official, and continued to follow their original plan - to go to the black water temple to see the great god.

Ximen Chuuxue looked away impatiently, obviously not wanting to be entangled with these people.

However, Yu Xi looked at the messy scene with great interest, and muttered, "Such a low-level method of framing, it seems that the opponent's IQ this time is not good enough." It is estimated that they can be hanged and beaten by them. Want to play with him.

So Ximen Sword God silently turned his face back, stretched out his hand, grabbed Yu Xi's belt, and came down from the room, landing like a god in front of Cheng Zhixian, whose nostrils were always upturned.

"Let's go." He said lightly.

"Where are you going?" Cheng Zhixian was frightened, like a fool.The policeman next to him hurriedly reminded him in a low voice, these two are white clothes and big eyes.

When Cheng Zhixian came back to his senses, just as he was about to regain his domineering aura, the two men walked forward with their white clothes fluttering in their splendor.

The suspects these days are too rampant and rampant.

Cheng Zhixian led people to follow.

Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou left Anxue and Anyue behind, asking them to check the situation in Matou Village, while Anfeng and Anhua went to the Black Water Temple first.

The Heishui River is several miles outside the city, and you can see villages along the way, but I don’t know whether it’s because of the cold spring or the local folk customs. There are not many pedestrians on the road, and occasionally a few walk in groups, and they don’t go to the city. Go, instead into the mountains into the forest, a weird atmosphere.

Lu Xiaofeng originally wanted to ask a few questions, but was stopped by Hua Manlou:

"Wait until Anxue and Anyue come back, don't startle them."

Lu Xiaofeng grabbed his sleeve, leaned closer, touched his chin and said, "You seem to be very interested in this case." Naturally, they didn't believe in such things as strange powers and chaos, but Huamanlou was right when he came. It's a little strange that the Great God of Blackwater is so concerned about things.

Hua Manlou lowered his eyes, squeezed the fan tightly in his hand, nodded and replied softly:

"Fortunately."

Lu Xiaofeng looked at him suspiciously.

What's wrong with this?

As expected, the Heishui River lived up to its name, with the waves rushing down, the water is huge, and the width is more than several feet. It seems that there will be water monsters in this kind of big river.

Before Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou got close, Anfeng, who rushed over first, was running towards the two of them while waving his hands, his expression was like seeing a ghost.

"Young master!" He stuttered.Lu Xiaofeng patted him on the shoulder:

"Well, how old are you? Even if you see a ghost, you're not the one who gets beaten. As for?"

"Grandpa, uncle, you don't know, that thing is much scarier than ghosts." Anfeng patted his chest with lingering fear, mother, I don't want to see such a disgusting thing again in this life.

Lu Xiaofeng also came to be aroused, and said to Huamanlou: "It's really interesting, there are people in this poor country that can scare people, we really have to go and see."

Hua Manlou didn't answer his words, and looked at An Feng with a smile, with a gentle voice:

"What did you call him just now?"

... Mother, what if I accidentally called out? !

Lu Xiaofeng suppressed a smile, and dragged Hua Manlou's arm, couldn't hide the smugness in the corners of his eyes and brows, but his tone still had to be restrained: "Let's go, let's see the Great God first."

Hua ManLou was dragged away by him, passing by An Feng who kept bowing to Lu XiaoFeng, leaving a sentence: Next time you have something to go out with An Xue.

……

Hey, so cruel!When Anfeng thought of Anhua's crying appearance at that time, he couldn't help but slap himself—you just say you know, why do you say it? !

The outside of the Heishui Temple looks like a big, well-behaved house. It is neither old nor new, but it is quite clean. It looks like it has been taken care of all year round.

Anhua was guarding the door, and his expression didn't look very good.

"Master, when we first came, they were sneaking out to deliver things. They were all slumped corpses, as if they had been sucked blood, and there were signs of biting everywhere, as if they had been swallowed alive... …" Seeing them, An Hua jumped over and said in a bunch of clattering.

Lu Xiaofeng cut him off: "Corpse? What corpse?"

If a large-scale murder occurs in this kind of place, it is impossible for the Yamen to ignore it.

"They're all wild boars, cattle, sheep, and poultry." An Feng, who followed up dingyly, explained.

"That's right, it's really tragic, the death is terrible, I don't know what evil I did in my previous life!" An Hua beat his chest and stamped his feet, with a mournful expression, as if he had worshiped those cows and pigs.

"It seems to be some kind of sacrificial ceremony." Lu Xiaofeng turned to look at Huamanlou, but saw that he was thinking.

"what happened?"

Hua Manlou shook his head: "Let's go in first."

Lu Xiaofeng shrugged and followed him inside.

As soon as he knocked on the door, a person came quickly. He was young, dressed very neatly, wearing a small leather hat, and looked very smart.

"You two, what's the matter? Pilgrims are not entertained in this temple." He rolled his eyes a few times as soon as he opened his mouth.

An Feng and An Hua had already groped in through the window, that's what they did just now, but unfortunately they were not prepared to be surprised.

Lu Xiaofeng waved his hand: "We don't offer incense, we just admire the reputation of the God of Black Water, just come and see."

The little leather hat sized them up again, and opened the door readily: "Okay, come in."

Hua Manlou covered her nose with a fan, and stepped across the threshold.

Seeing his movements, Lu Xiaofeng knew that he also smelled it - there was a faint smell of blood inside.

If there are a large number of animal carcasses, it is indeed difficult to completely eliminate the traces even if they are cleaned up.

Once inside, there is an open and spacious yard, without any extra things, it looks a bit desolate.The few houses opposite the door are tall and large, and they are all closed. The gloomy place looks like a temple rather than a hall of hell.

"The God of Black Water is enshrined in this main hall, but the door is only opened on the sixth day of the eighth lunar month, and strangers are not allowed to enter." The little leather hat introduced the two of them, "Although you two have come from a long way, I'm afraid you still have to go in." Let you down."

These words are reasonable, sincere, and undeniable.

Lu Xiaofeng looked at a picture of a giant beast painted in the middle of the door of the main hall, and asked the little fur hat, "How do you know we came from a long way?"

"This..." The little leather hat paused, and then continued swiftly, "Judging from the looks and temperament of the two, you are not ordinary people, you must be distinguished guests from a big place!"

"Tsk!" Lu Xiaofeng stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, "Brother's eyes are like a torch, isn't it a shame to guard the door in such a place?"

The little leather hat bent down, as if trying to avoid Lu Xiaofeng's hand, but Lu Xiaofeng's hand seemed to have some kind of suction and made him unable to move.

"What do you mean, Your Excellency?" The little leather hat changed his face.

Lu Xiaofeng shrugged his shoulders—it's nothing interesting, I have a big business to do now, and I don't have the heart to accompany you guys to catch mice.

With a sweep of the other sleeve, the door of the main hall slammed open, and the expression of the little leather hat changed from surprise to horror.

Lu Xiaofeng withdrew his hand, and the little fur hat was about to run out, but was caught by Lu Xiaofeng's backhand and thrown into the hall, a shrill cry came out, and then there was the chaotic sound of chasing each other.

"What are you teasing him for? He's just an obedient person." Hua Manlou poked a fan at the laughing person beside him.Always so nasty.

"Who knows what the hell is inside, let them play with it first, I get dizzy when I hear such nonsense now." You Qi still had a mountain-eating worm in his arms.

Speaking of Zhu Mo Dao, Lu Xiaofeng rubbed his chest. Ever since King Ping Ding gave up the idea of ​​snatching back the god worm, this worm has been sleeping on Lu Xiaofeng's body. Instead of the red box, Huamanlou casually found a cold silk to weave it into. It's very easy to put it in the bag and stuff it in the chest.

But from the moment he entered the door, Lu Xiaofeng felt a movement in his chest.

"There seems to be a cry." Hua Manlou listened carefully.

It should not be Zhu Modao. This thing eats and sleeps, but never sleeps. It never screams.

Lu Xiaofeng pulled him back, motioning him to follow behind her: "I'll go in first."

Huamanlou never competes with him for things like this, he is very considerate of the overall situation, and it is very worthwhile to be on it once.

Anfeng was lying on the roof with his sleeves pulled by Anhua, watching the movement below, and muttering in his mouth - you can't call me aunt in person, you can't call me aunt in person, you can't call me aunt in person...

The two walked in one after the other, and just as Hua Manlou stepped in, the door of the main hall suddenly closed behind him with a bang.

But Lu Xiaofeng who was walking in front hadn't seen the situation in the hall clearly when a large white mass suddenly flew towards his head like an arrow, making squeaking and shrieking noises, which made the listeners feel uncomfortable.

"Huamanlou!" Lu Xiaofeng went back to catch it, but it was in vain, because Huamanlou had already turned around and stood at the door, staring at the door in a daze.

Lu Xiaofeng flew up and kicked the ball away, like kicking a ball of cotton, he almost lost his footing when he lost his strength, and staggered towards Huamanlou.

"Is there a picture of a nine-clawed beast outside this door?" Hua Manlou asked him as he supported him.

"Okay, it seems to have nine claws, and it looks very ugly, like a bull's head and a dog's head." Lu Xiaofeng rubbed his nose—fortunately, Huamanlou didn't pay attention to that scene just now.

"Sure enough." Hua Manlou nodded, his expression became serious, "Brother Lu, the things in this temple should be snow gnawing water rats, with sharp teeth and sharp mouth, poisonous penis, be careful not to be touched by it. "

"It's really a mouse?!" Lu Xiaofeng only had time to sigh, because the thing had already flew over screaming again.

There were no lights in the main hall, and there were two small windows on the high walls, making it very dark.

Lu Xiaofeng and the snow squirrel ran around the room, but they didn't touch any furniture.Huamanlou heard the slight breathing sound from the side, it was the little leather hat that Lu Xiaofeng threw in first.

He walked over to take a detoxification pill for him, clicked on his acupoints and threw it aside, and still went to look at the door.

It is recorded in "Wan Beast Chronicle" that there are rats in the river, with white bodies and sharp teeth.

There is a strange fragrance on this door, which is used for burning spiritual wood to ward off disasters and earthquakes.A nine-clawed beast is painted on the door, which shows that the person who caught the snow gnawing water mouse here knows its true identity.

It seems that the people who want to stop them are for this reason.

But what he couldn't understand was why the extinct animals recorded in "Wan Beast Chronicle" would appear outside such a village.And now it seems that Wu Chang sent him this book and let them come here from it, it seems that the purpose is to lead them to discover the snow gnawing water rat.

It is not a gift from the elders.

Want to throw it back.

Lu Xiaofeng had already kicked the white mouse to the ground, it was a white ball, hairless, disgusting.As soon as he stepped on its belly, four short legs kicked out. The claws were very sharp, just like the teeth that were sunken in the body and only exposed at this time, they were all harmful weapons.

"What should we do now?" Lu Xiaofeng obviously thought of that incident, he gritted his teeth - it doesn't matter if you are the father or the ancestor, we will give you a good beating when we meet later.

A hundred miles away, in a snow-covered valley, Wu Chang squatted on a big rock wrapped up like a baby bear, sniffling and humming, and asked Chongxi who was walking back and forth in the woods:

"Did you find it? Hurry up, don't lose to the two children."

Hua Manlou fumbled around the door to find the mechanism to open the door, and replied to Lu Xiaofeng behind him: "It probably hides some kind of secret." So it can't be killed. "Besides, this thing will grow even if its flesh is cut, so it probably won't kill it easily."

……

Lu Daxia scratched his hair irritably—it was really disgusting, he didn't even want to step on it, let alone use it with his hand.

The two of them were worrying, when Lu Xiaofeng suddenly felt his chest move.

——Yo, that big bug who couldn't get enough sleep actually woke up right now.
