Chapter 4 Strange Case



After leaving the temple fair, Su Rui took his servants to a nearby clinic to get some eye-pleasing herbal medicines. He then went to the market and bought two cages of venomous snakes with their fangs pulled out before returning to the county government office.

When the original body's mother, the wealthy Mrs. Su, saw him coming back with a lot of things in big and small bags, she came over to take a look out of curiosity. When she saw two cages of poisonous snakes, she was so scared that her face turned pale.

Seeing this, Su Rui also felt a headache.

I made the excuse that my eyes hurt, and the doctor prescribed me a prescription to swallow fresh snake gall. It took a long time to explain before I was able to get away with it.

He used both decoctions and poisonous snakes, naturally, to prepare for practicing "The Golden Light Pupil of the Maori".

Although the secret didn't mention the need for medicinal herbs to aid cultivation, Su Rui, fearing death, felt he needed to be prepared. Based on his previous experience with "snake gallbladder eye protection" from the internet, he purchased these highly venomous snakes. He also made the medicinal herbs at hand.

Another main purpose of buying poisonous snakes is to extract the venom sacs to make some small protective items.

The price of poisonous snakes in this world is not cheap, even more expensive than medicinal herbs. You know, even on Earth before the time travel, medical expenses were the most expensive, bar none.

This time when I went out today, I had already completely emptied my original body's small treasury.

But money is only material possessions, and he can ask Mrs. Su for more after spending it. After all, he is only nine years old now, and he can feel justified in relying on his parents for support.

At first he was worried that he wouldn't be able to find any poisonous snakes, but fortunately, there were mountains in the southwest just outside the door. Although there were no other products, there was no shortage of various game.

After avoiding Madam Su's care, Su Rui rushed to the front yard of the county government office, ready to beg his original father, Su Daquan, the county magistrate, to arrange for Wu Quetou to be his master. Of course, it would be even better if there was a more powerful internal martial arts master.

But when he arrived at the front yard, he found that County Magistrate Su was in court trying a case.

Su Rui took a peek from behind the screen and saw a large group of people in the hall, all talking at once about the case.

After listening for a while and understanding the general circumstances of the case, he was also shocked by the bizarre circumstances.

The incident happened in the home of a Chen family in Jiqi Town under the jurisdiction of Tongqu County. The suspect was a hunter named Liu Yishou.

According to the Chen family, the summary is: when they were arranging the funeral for their deceased mother, they kindly let Liu Yishou and several other hunters stay overnight, but Liu Yishou killed several of his companions and tried to steal the body of the Chen family's mother.

The suspect Liu Yishou was a hunter in his early thirties, with a thin build. He was escorted by two young men and stood in a corner of the lobby. He was trembling, his face pale and his expression terrified.

He admitted that he and several fellow hunters stayed at Chen's house that night, but he firmly denied the Chen family's allegations of murder and corpse theft.

According to him, he and several other hunters were delayed in returning to the city that day in order to hunt more Fire Cloud Chickens, so they had to seek shelter from the nearby wealthy Chen family. Coincidentally, the Chen family was holding a funeral that day and had no extra rooms, so they placed them in the wing to the right of the mourning hall for the night.

After running around all day, they were very tired and didn't care about it. They lay down in the right wing of the mourning hall that night.

Because he was wearing thin clothes, he woke up from the cold in the middle of the night. He happened to be holding his urine, so he got up and prepared to get out of bed to find a place to relieve himself.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he sat up, he saw the dead girl from the Chen family bending over with her head facing the hunter who was sleeping on another wooden bed, as if observing something.

He happened to have seen that girl's face in the mourning hall next door. She was very pretty, but unfortunately she died young.

He was so impressed by it that he would never admit his mistake.

It's scary because the memory is so clear!

The strange scene in front of him frightened him greatly, so he tiptoed back to lie down quietly.

After a while, I found that there was no movement.

He quietly raised his head and glanced in the direction of the girl. With the dim moonlight, he finally saw her clearly, but he was so scared that he wet his pants.

I saw the female corpse with her head lowered, mouth to mouth with one of the hunters, absorbing the hunter's yang energy!

I saw it sucking one and then changing to another, with no intention of stopping, and soon it would be his turn.

In order to survive, he mustered up his courage and while the female corpse was happily absorbing the yang energy of her last companion, he quickly jumped off the bed, stabbed her in the back, kicked the defenseless female corpse to the ground, and then ran out of the room shouting for help.

Perhaps his kick pissed off the female corpse, and it stopped absorbing the remaining yang energy, and started jumping after him.

He kept shouting for help, but the strange thing was that the Chen family seemed to have disappeared collectively, and such a big noise couldn't wake up a single person!

Although the female corpse chasing behind was jumping, her speed was not slow.

He walked around Chen's house and found that no one came out, so he hurriedly opened the door handle and escaped from Chen's house.

The female corpse seemed to have recognized him and followed him all the way from Chen's house to the outside.

During the chase, he also tried to fight back against the female corpse, but the female corpse's body was stiff and extremely powerful, and he was no match for it.

A man and a corpse, one in front and one behind, chased and hid for about one or two kilometers, and were finally rescued by a monk near a temple. The female corpse was also subdued by the monk.

After dawn, the monk brought the female corpse to Chen's house and informed the Chen family of the corpse's transformation.

When the Chen family learned about this, they were afraid of being held responsible, so they took Liu Yishou to the county government office to report the matter.

That's roughly the case.

The Chen family's statement sounds more reliable, while Liu Yishou's statement is full of weirdness and strangeness.

After listening to the statements of both parties and examining the bodies of several hunters in court, Magistrate Su ordered Liu Yishou to be temporarily imprisoned. He also ordered Captain Wu to take his officers to the scene of the incident for investigation before adjourning the court.
