Chapter 14 Bone Demon? I was scared!
Xue Chen frowned and suddenly withdrew his thoughts.
The emotions that were rarely revealed were suppressed bit by bit by him and locked away in a place deep in his heart that never saw the light of day.
He spoke with a normal expression.
"Yesterday, I used some methods to find out that County Magistrate Shi's son died ten days ago. County Magistrate Shi's first wife was the only daughter of his immediate superior, Governor Xu. They had been married for several years but had no children."
"Hearing that his mother was anxious to have a grandson, County Magistrate Shi secretly took in a concubine, who had a son with her."
"The only son is deeply loved by him."
"My only son was spoiled and brought up, and he developed a lawless nature. Ten days ago, he oppressed the people. After drinking and drinking, he was walking on the street at night when he was beaten to death by someone unknown."
"Then what you described happened."
"The coffin was pushed into the paper-making shop late at night, and the owner of the shop died the next day."
Tsk!
At that time, her sixth sense told her that County Magistrate Shi was not a good person and that he was closely related to the murderer.
"Then where are we going to catch people today?" Ning Shengsheng asked excitedly.
"No arrests." Xue Chen shook his head.
"ah?"
Under her puzzled gaze, the boy curled his lips and said, "I'll take you to see something interesting."
There was no response from her for a long time.
Xue Chen couldn't help but look up and saw the girl holding her cheeks with both hands, blinking her almond eyes, and praising from the bottom of her heart: "You are so beautiful when you smile!"
“…”
He turned his face away silently, feeling that he was being teased.
Shake your head.
Get rid of weird thoughts.
Xue Chen left with a dark face.
Ning Shengsheng lifted her skirt and ran after him.
Songgao Zaoni was about to follow her out when she heard the princess order, "Stay home."
The two could only retreat.
moment.
Ning Jin's scream was heard from the east room.
The third princess' maid ran out in panic to find Mr. Pei, and soon Pei Yuan arrived.
The yard was in chaos.
Songgao and Zaoni stood at the outermost layer of the crowd watching the excitement as the guards carried out a corpse.
The two men took a step back in fright.
It’s actually Prince Jiang?
Who dares to kill the youngest son of Marquis Ping'an? You should know that there are two Xuanqiao monks in the Marquis Ping'an's mansion.
The murderer is so brave!
Pei Yuan dismissed the onlookers.
His face, which was always as gentle as jade, rarely showed solemnity and seriousness.
I just checked carefully in the house and there are no signs of fighting. It is obvious that the other party's realm is much higher than Jiang Feng. He even had the leisure to play with the person before killing him.
The key is that there was no sound at all.
No matter how high or low, one must reach the Xuanqiao realm.
Pei Yuan rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. Ping'an Hou had a violent temper and he didn't know how to explain it when he returned.
No matter how you check.
The evidence could not be traced back to Xue Chen.
After all, he is not even a terrestrial being.
…
Xue Chen pressed his chest, and a furry white ball tried to come out.
The existence of the snowball must not be discovered by anyone.
This little guy did a lot of good things last night, but I didn't feed him any rare treasures, so he must be angry.
"How long do we have to walk?" Ning Shengsheng asked.
"It's almost time. Let's go to Tianshui Lane in the north of the city."
"oh……"
The streets were bustling with people going about their daily lives and doing business, with many stalls set up on both sides.
She bought various snacks and asked Xue Chen to take them.
He was so angry that he was fuming.
Xue Chen held an icy watermelon in his left hand and a bowl of mung bean soup in his right hand, and he had to push the snowball back from time to time.
The little guy started to make a fuss when he smelled the sweets.
It's hard to guard against.
Snowball came out and quickly grabbed the watermelon, ate it all in no time, licked his paws in enjoyment, and then went back in.
Xue Chen: “…”
"Where's my ice watermelon? Give it to me!"
After Ning Shengsheng finished her sweet soup, she turned back to ask for watermelon, but saw only an empty watermelon rind in the boy's hand.
"Oh?" She smiled meaningfully.
"Uh... no..."
Xue Chen couldn't explain.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you just said you didn't want to eat it, and now you're secretly eating it after I bought it. You say one thing and mean another!"
Ning Shengsheng was certain that he had eaten it.
The boy's face darkened even more. He stuffed the mung bean paste into her hands and said sternly, "Don't ask me for help anymore."
"I don't dare anymore!"
"You love stealing food more than a little mouse." Ning Shengsheng drank a mouthful of mung bean soup and smiled with curved eyebrows.
"Your Highness, Princess..."
Xue Chen almost finished speaking with gritted teeth.
She knew when to quit.
"I shut up!"
Hum a song happily.
Following Xue Chen like a little tail.
From time to time he could hear the sound of her eating, which was more like the rabbit he had raised as a child.
Also chew your food slowly.
While daydreaming, I arrived at a hidden courtyard in Tianshui Lane. The gate of the courtyard was similar to that of an ordinary courtyard.
Ning Shengsheng was caught off guard and was dragged up.
Xue Chen took her over the courtyard wall.
"Wow, so luxurious..."
That's right.
The courtyard looks ordinary from the outside, but its interior decoration is comparable to the residence of a first-rank official in the court.
"Would the most favored Princess Daning be surprised by this?" Xue Chen responded reflexively.
After replying, I realized something was wrong.
Letting down my guard in front of her for the second time.
I felt a little upset.
He ignored Ning Shengsheng when she spoke to him.
The two of them walked around in circles, passed through the rockery, and reached the deepest part of the courtyard.
Caught off guard again.
Xue Chen picked him up again and jumped onto the roof.
Ning Shengsheng: ...He wasn’t afraid that she would scream.
Remove a tile from the roof.
The boy hooked his finger, smiled maliciously, and motioned her to look down.
Tsk~
She is not afraid.
Ning Shengsheng stretched her little head over and saw what was inside, her eyes widened in horror.
There was a person lying on the couch.
I don’t know whether I should call it “human”.
Or a mass of flesh and a few bones?
Flesh and bones eroded each other, constantly turning into blood and then merging together. The entire couch was soaked in flesh, blood, and bone residue.
Even his face was rotten.
Both of his eyeballs were missing and he had only a few teeth left.
vomit……
No, she couldn't vomit and alert the enemy.
Lift up your sleeves and cover your nose and mouth tightly.
Seeing that she was quite patient, Xue Chen raised his eyebrows in surprise and pinched Ning Shengsheng's collar with his slender fingers.
He picked her up and flew away.
Ning Shengsheng: Speechless, here we go again!
The boy took her to the corner of the rockery in the garden, folded his arms, and raised his chin towards the corner.
"Spit it out."
"I don't……"
Ning Shengsheng took a deep breath, her face stubbornly tense, "Not scary at all!"
“Not disgusting at all!”
"I'm not afraid at all... Ugh!!!"
Seeing her vomiting and dizzy while holding on to the rockery, Xue Chen pursed his lips and finally couldn't help laughing out loud.
I didn't notice.
Princess Ning'an is still a little stubborn.
After she rested, Xue Chen spoke calmly: "The one you saw was the son of Shi Junshou."
"What?"
"Isn't he dead?"
"He was indeed dead, but is now alive again, or perhaps, he is in a half-dead state."
This... this is too outrageous!
It completely broke her cognition.
Ning Shengsheng remembered that the novel "Suo Yun Huan" was set in an era when spiritual energy was thin and all laws were withering.
Dead people can only be made into puppets.
Otherwise there will be no resurrection.
That……
What happened to County Magistrate Shi’s dead son?
Xue Chen observed Ning Shengsheng's expression and saw that her bewilderment didn't seem fake, so he continued, "It's the Bone Demon."
"Bone Demon?"
"What is that?"
