Starting as the young master of a medicine shop, he practiced swordsmanship for twenty years

Indeed, this fat constable was actually a distant relative of Lu Xuan.

And this fat constable was none other than Liang Shanhai's only son, the registrar of the county office. The fat constable's father was also Lu Xuan's uncle.

Seeing that the other party had regained consciousness, Lu Xuan released his grip on the other's hand.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Lu Xuan let go, the other party looked as if he was about to cry and rushed towards him.

"Cousin, it's really you! I never thought I'd live to see you again, sob!"

Lu Xuan frowned, a look of disgust on his face, and unhesitatingly sidestepped, dodging to the other side.

"Liang Cheng, what are you doing? You haven't answered my question yet."

Thump!

A soft thud of falling to the ground. Not long after, Liang Cheng patted the dust off his body and looked at Lu Xuan with some resentment.

He trotted up to Lu Xuan and said in a low voice.

"Cousin, you don't know, this village is really strange. I'm really unlucky to be sent here."

"Don't say anything now, Xuan-ge. You should leave here with me as soon as possible.

I don't dare to stay in this strange village for a moment."

Liang Cheng chattered in Lu Xuan's ear, using a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Hearing the fear in Liang Cheng's words, Lu Xuan pondered, "You're a constable from the county office, how did you come all the way to this village? Did something big happen?"

"Yes, Xuan-ge, you don't know. A murder happened in this village.

Originally, the murder in Liugou Village was under the jurisdiction of the village elder and the village soldiers, so it shouldn't have been our county office's turn to handle it.

Who knew that the village soldiers sent by the village elder also died in this village."

"Then the village elder reported directly to the county town. The county magistrate was furious and sent county constables to investigate the matter."

"And then, it's the reason why you saw me here, Xuan-ge. I was just one of those unlucky ones."

So that's how it is. Lu Xuan finally understood why Liang Cheng was so distraught when he saw him just now, and Lu Xuan had to use his Qi and blood to wake him up.

A murder? The village soldiers sent by the village elder are dead too?

No wonder Liang Cheng looked so distraught when he saw him just now, and Lu Xuan had to use his Qi and blood to wake him up.

"Officer, do you know this distinguished guest who came to purchase medicinal herbs?"

At this time, the old village chief was helped up. Liang Cheng then stopped talking and stood quietly beside Lu Xuan.

The old village chief looked at Lu Xuan in surprise. He didn't expect that this distinguished guest who had just arrived today had a relationship with the officer from the government.

It seemed that they were also relatives, so the old village chief quickly stepped forward to confirm.

"Of course, my cousin is..."

Lu Xuan put his hand on Liang Cheng's shoulder, stopping him from continuing, and then smiled at the old village chief.

"Old village chief, yes, we are indeed related. It seems to be a bit of a coincidence."

"So that's how it is."

The old village chief got the answer, and the last trace of vigilance in his heart towards Lu Xuan disappeared.

So, the old village chief quickly said to Liang Cheng, "That's good. Your cousin wants to stay overnight in Liugou Village. What do you think?"

The old village chief didn't know how to decide about Lu Xuan's request to stay overnight in Liugou Village.

It just so happened that this distinguished guest knew the officer from the county office, so that would be easy to handle.

The officer had already arrived yesterday, and he knew everything about the problems in Liugou Village.

It would be best if he could tell this distinguished guest about it.

"What, Xuan-ge, you want to stay overnight in Liugou Village?"

Seeing this, Liang Cheng quickly signaled Lu Xuan to walk away with him. Some things couldn't be said openly.

"Xuan-ge, listen to me, this village is a bit troublesome. You should leave with me as soon as possible."

"Just right, I still have something to ask the village chief of Liugou Village, so I plan to take the opportunity to return to the county town to report to the county magistrate."

Liang Cheng's face was solemn, and he looked like he was about to run away immediately.

"Well, that's quite interesting. What happened here that made you, who are not afraid of anything, so scared? Tell me about it."

Liang Cheng's fearful appearance didn't scare Lu Xuan, but aroused Lu Xuan's interest.

Faced with Lu Xuan's doubts, Liang Cheng didn't hide anything and told everything.

"Xuan-ge, two villagers died in this Liugou Village a few days ago, and then three village soldiers sent by the village elder to investigate the case also died."

"It's okay if they died. Since I became a county constable, what kind of dead people haven't I seen."

Speaking of this, Liang Cheng looked smug and proud, as if he wanted to get Lu Xuan's affirmation.

But after seeing that Lu Xuan didn't react at all, Liang Cheng had to continue.

"The way those five people died, I have never seen such a terrifying death in my life."

"There was not a single intact place on their bodies. Their bodies were covered with intertwined finger marks and were bloody. The main thing is that these wounds were all self-inflicted."

"Oh, anything else?"

What Liang Cheng said made a gleam of light flash in Lu Xuan's eyes. It was the emotion of excitement.

These were exactly the same symptoms as what he had seen a few days ago, the way his cousin Lu Yun'an died.

This also shows that the extraordinary weirdness of Liugou Village is real, and it also has the Yin Qi that Lu Xuan wants most.

Moreover, according to Liang Cheng, there seem to be five dead people in Liugou Village now, just like his cousin, who were invaded by Yin Qi.

Yin Qi!

Lu Xuan suppressed the desire in the depths of his heart, his face was still expressionless, just staring at Liang Cheng and slowly said, "Liang Cheng, where are those five people now?"

Liang Cheng looked at Lu Xuan with some doubts, not understanding why Lu Xuan was suddenly staring at him, and then casually said.

"Those five people, I burned them last night."

"Burned them? Why did you burn them? Aren't you here to investigate the case?"

A sentence that was lightly burned made Lu Xuan speechless.

Good fellow, the county office sent you to investigate the matter.

You're good, you burned the dead people, so what are you investigating? Just close the case directly?

The problem is not solved, so you solved the person who raised the problem, right?

Looking at Lu Xuan's speechless appearance, Liang Cheng instantly guessed what his cousin was thinking and quickly explained.

"That's right, Xuan-ge, you don't know, these five dead people,

Damn it, last night they actually, actually, actually moved!"

When he said this, Liang Cheng's body actually trembled, his words were intermittent, and his pupils kept jumping, as if he had thought of something terrible.

"Xuan-ge, if it weren't for you always guiding me in swordsmanship, I would have fallen into this evil village last night."

"Died in the hands of that group of dead people."

Died in the hands of dead people, Liang Cheng knew how bizarre what he said was.
