"It's that witch again!" Li Heng gritted his teeth.
A quarter of an hour ago, Li Yao sent someone to tell him that the former Saint of the White Lotus Sect, Gu Yanran, had somehow developed a set of evil skills that could seduce the enemies and specialize in sucking the blood of men.
The corpses before me died in such a horrible way that it goes without saying that it must have been done by that evil woman.
Just as Li Heng was about to order people to deal with the bodies, another soldier ran in in a panic.
"Report——"
"Major General, seven mummies were also found in the slums in the east of the city. They were all young and middle-aged men!"
Li Heng's sword-holding hand was throbbing with veins, "This witch is provoking me!"
He gave a stern order: "Pass it down. Young and middle-aged men in the city are prohibited from going out at night. In addition, all patrol teams must be equipped with black dogs and cinnabar!"
Black dogs have a keen sense of smell and can sense danger in advance.
Cinnabar can drive away evil spirits and make monsters appear.
Soon, as the news came out, the entire Youzhou city fell into unprecedented panic, especially the young men. There were basically no people to be seen on the streets.
…
At the same time, in a secret room underground in a temple in the south of the city.
"Bang!"
As the last corpse was thrown out of the secret room, the dozen or so big men in the yard suddenly became so nervous that their hairs began to stand up.
"Saint, Saint..." The leading burly man knelt on the ground trembling with cold sweat on his forehead.
"The government officials are searching for you everywhere. What should we do next?"
If there is someone familiar here, he will recognize that this person is the one who started the trouble outside Langanju.
Behind him, there were also a few familiar faces, kneeling on the ground with their foreheads touching the ground.
Then, the door of the secret room opened silently, and a faint fragrance wafted out.
Gu Yanran walked out slowly, her snow-white bare feet stepping on the blue bricks, leaving a phosphorescent lotus mark with every step.
Everyone in the yard held their breath, their eyes filled with obsession and fear.
Gu Yanran licked the corner of her lips contentedly and let out a sigh of satisfaction.
The injuries he had just suffered when dealing with Chu Qingluan were finally healed after absorbing the energy of dozens of people.
She slowly glanced at everyone present, and her voice was full of charm.
"I remember... did any of you ever work in the Yun Mansion?"
In the corner, a thin man immediately crawled out, "I used to work in the stables of the Yun Mansion!"
Gu Yanran's eyes suddenly shone with golden light. She stretched out her hand to lift the thin man's chin, forcing him to look directly into her eyes.
"Then tell me, where does your Yun Sihu like to go most on weekdays?"
The thin man was trembling all over, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes: "Mr. Yun usually works at the government office during the day, and he goes to the villa on the outskirts of the city at night, and he doesn't bring anyone with him. He goes alone."
"Very good!" Gu Yanran chuckled, suddenly let go of the man's chin, flicked her sleeves and turned around.
"Tonight, I will go and avenge myself for these two months of imprisonment!"
Tonight, she would make sure that damn Yun Yan died without a burial place!
——
The moon is dark and the wind is strong, and the shadows of the trees are swaying.
In the hot spring pool of the villa on the outskirts of the city, an extremely erotic scene was being played out.
Qi Che was seen leaning against the edge of the pond, half-undressed, with a woman in his arms, whose face was 70% similar to Chu Qingluan.
The woman was feeding grapes into Qi Che's mouth. Qi Che half-closed his eyes and acted as if he was enjoying it very much.
At this moment, a sweet fragrance suddenly came from the air, and the gauze curtains around the hot spring pool began to move without wind, and the surroundings suddenly fell into a quiet and weird atmosphere.
The serving woman obviously realized that something was wrong, and she quickly shrank into Qi Che's arms, a little scared.
"Young Master~"
Qi Che patted the other person's shoulder gently, and looked around calmly.
"It's okay, go down first."
The woman stepped back and stood up from the pool with a splash. Her wet dress clung to her body, revealing her beautiful figure.
However, Qi Che didn't even look over there, his eyes were fixed on the direction of the window.
"Since you're here, just come out." Qi Che said calmly.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Not long after, a silver bell-like laughter suddenly rang out all around, and the lingering sound continued to echo around the hot spring pool, like a female ghost coming to claim a life, which sounded particularly terrifying.
Qi Che clenched his fists calmly, reminding himself not to panic.
Then, Gu Yanran, in red clothes and black hair, was seen slowly emerging from the shadows. Against the moonlight, her skirt and hair moved without wind. Her feet stepped on the water stains beside the pool, leaving lotus-shaped marks, which then slowly rose into white smoke accompanied by water mist and drifted into the air.
From afar, it looked like a female ghost in red was walking on clouds, walking towards them with lotus steps.
"Mr. Yun is such a refined person." Gu Yanran opened her red lips slightly, her voice so sweet that it was sickening.
"Since you can't get Chu Qingluan, you keep a fake one here to comfort your longing?"
As she stood at the edge of the pool, a thin layer of ice suddenly formed next to the hot spring pool, which was originally filled with mist.
She just hooked her finger, and the maid who had already gone out suddenly turned around and came back.
However, the other party was obviously out of control. His eyes were filled with despair, but his body involuntarily moved closer to Gu Yanran, as if he was imprisoned by some invisible force.
Finally, the woman came in front of Gu Yanran.
Gu Yanran stretched out her finger, lifted the woman's chin and looked at her carefully, "But they are only about 50% similar, what a pity."
As soon as she finished speaking, she exerted a little force with her nails. With a "pop", her nails, like blades, instantly cut through the woman's skin.
Then, the long nails slowly entered inside, starting along the edge of the skin, and peeled off the woman's entire skin like peeling a fruit.
The maid didn't even have time to scream before she turned into a faceless corpse.
It all happened so fast, and Gu Yanran's movements seemed extremely skillful, as if the skinning action had been practiced thousands of times.
This scene made Qi Che's eyes widen suddenly, with an angry expression.
"If you have any grievances, you can just come after me. Why hurt innocent people?"
Qi Che's angry questioning echoed in the villa, but Gu Yanran suddenly laughed out loud towards the sky.
There was madness and sadness in that laughter.
"innocent?"
"I was imprisoned in a secret room by you for two whole months, and was humiliated by those ten beasts every day. Am I not innocent?"
She slowly approached Qi Che, and suddenly her five fingers formed into claws and grabbed Qi Che's throat.
In an instant, all the blood in Qi Che's body seemed to be frozen, his hands and feet were completely unable to move, and even breathing became extremely difficult.
"But I still have to thank you. If it weren't for your 'meticulous care', how could I have developed this natural charm?"
"So..." She reached out her other hand and slowly traced her fingers along Qi Che's cheek.
"I came here today to thank you~"
Gu Yanran emphasized the last syllable of the word "thank you", which made people feel creepy.
