At eight o'clock in the evening, Chi Mu stood in front of the village chief's house with his hands in his pockets.
In his right pocket he held the dagger tightly.
"There is no rule that prevents me from killing people in the village, and there is no rule that prevents me from becoming a murderer."
Chi Mu was filled with anger.
He took a deep breath and pushed open the door of the village chief's house.
I thought I would meet the village chief's family, but surprisingly, I didn't meet anyone when I passed through the yard and front house.
Chi Mu then remembered that this afternoon when he was in the store, he heard a villager say that the village chief's wife took their son to the next village to attend a wedding.
So, he was the only one in the village chief's house today.
"Haha, village chief, it seems like God wants you dead..."
Chi Mu was so angry that he almost forgot that he was in the world of ghost stories.
Now there is only one thing he wants to do, and that is to kill this morally corrupt and unscrupulous beast with his own hands!
He checked every room but couldn't find the village chief, except for the last room in the backyard.
The light was on in the room. Chi Mu took the dagger out of his pocket and approached cautiously.
As he reached the door, he stretched out his hand to push it open, but he smelled a faint smell of blood.
Chi Mu's eyes narrowed and he pushed the door open suddenly.
The village chief was seen lying in a pool of blood, naked, with his spine also pulled out of his body.
What was different from the past was that his neck was chopped off directly, and his hands were also chopped off and left aside. His death was extremely tragic.
"hiss......"
This bloody scene made Chi Mu sober up instantly, followed by a feeling of regret.
"Someone got there first, and I couldn't kill that beast with my own hands!"
Chi Mu frowned, but at this moment he regained his senses and realized that he was in the world of ghost stories and that his every move was being watched by the people of the entire Dragon Kingdom.
I almost became a murderer out of impulse just now.
"The blood hasn't dried yet. It seems the village chief hasn't been dead for long and the murderer hasn't gone far!"
Chi Mu squatted on the ground, touched the blood on the ground, and then touched the village chief's body, which still had some temperature.
Thinking of this, Chi Mu hurried to the backyard, only to see a black shadow jumping down from the wall.
That man is the murderer!
By the time Chi Mu chased to the edge of the wall, the black shadow had disappeared without a trace.
——"It's a pity that Chi Mu couldn't kill the beastly village chief himself."
——"We are a step late, otherwise we could have caught the murderer... Who is this chivalrous murderer?"
——"That black shadow is very agile. We can almost rule out Cripple Li as the murderer. He can't possibly be so agile."
——"Could it be my father?"
Everyone speculated about the murderer's true identity.
But what they didn't know was that Chi Mu had a pretty good idea about the identity of this black shadow.
Because he was here, he could smell the cigarette that Lame Li was smoking again.
"Sure enough, the monk in this hunchback temple is not a good person. It seems that I have to go to the temple tonight no matter what."
Chi Mu sniffed. He was so familiar with this smell.
In order to avoid being discovered by other villagers, Chi Mu did not leave through the main gate, but instead climbed over the wall from the backyard and left the village chief's house.
Now that the village chief has died tragically at home, if Chi Mu walks out of the main gate now and is seen by other villagers, he will immediately become the target of public criticism.
After climbing out of the village chief’s house, Chi Mu walked towards the back mountain.
The strange thing is that every time he passed a house, those who had a dog would start barking.
"Hmm? What's going on?"
At first Chi Mu thought that the dogs were just barking unintentionally, but gradually he discovered that wherever he went, the dogs would bark in that direction.
This is obviously abnormal.
[5: The dogs in the village know the scent of every villager and only bark at strangers.]
Chi Mu thought of this rule and couldn't help feeling strange.
He is also a villager in the village. Logically, these dogs should remember his smell. Why are they suddenly barking at him?
He looked around and saw no one else.
"Could it be because the black shadow just now had a strong smell and I was contaminated with his scent, but he was not from the Hunchback Temple?"
Chi Mu had a new judgment on the identity of the black shadow. In this case, the black shadow was most likely the monk in the Hunchback Temple.
Because the monks there are not the villagers of Hunchback Village.
It is understandable that these dogs would bark randomly because they are contaminated by their scent.
At this time, it was late at night and the sounds of insects could be heard on the back hill.
Under the bright moonlight, a figure was walking towards the Hunchback Temple on the mountain.
This person is Chi Mu.
"Damn it, I should have brought an oil lamp when I came here. It's so dark that I can't see anything. If I fall, I won't know where I fell..."
Chi Mu walked in the dark, complaining as he went along, and began to regret being so impulsive.
However, not bringing an oil lamp also has its advantages. After all, the road up the mountain can be seen clearly from the village.
Generally no one goes to the back mountain at night. If I were discovered, it would probably cause unnecessary trouble.
Chi Mu didn't know that on his way up the mountain, there was also someone following him, keeping a distance that was not easily noticed...
