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

The next day, as dawn broke.

The villagers of Willow Creek were woken up early by the old village chief.

They were told that everyone needed to gather at the Meeting Grand Temple today.

This announcement, of course, was made by the village chief at Liang Cheng's instruction.

After confirming with Lu Xuan last night, Willow Creek would not have any more of those strange occurrences for a long time.

As for the deaths of the two Willow Creek villagers and the other three local militiamen, Liang Cheng wouldn't be foolish enough to reveal the truth.

Was he supposed to tell the villagers of Willow Creek that their village had unclean things and that those people were killed by these strange and terrifying unclean things?

If Liang Cheng were to reveal this truth, the villagers of Willow Creek would probably panic and cause chaos.

Willow Creek Meeting Grand Temple!

Liang Cheng stood in the middle of the hall, with several constables behind him.

These constables were carrying a wooden board covered with white cloth.

Seeing that the villagers of Willow Creek had gathered, Liang Cheng began to speak.

"Alright, quiet!"

After Liang Cheng shouted forcefully, the originally noisy hall instantly fell silent.

Everyone's eyes focused on Liang Cheng, including Lu Xuan, who was sitting on a chair on the side of the hall.

Seeing the hall quiet down, Liang Cheng nodded in satisfaction and spoke again.

"After my investigation last night, I have discovered the cause of death of those people."

"Furthermore, I have executed the real culprit who killed them on the spot, so this situation will never happen again in Willow Creek."

"Everyone can rest assured now."

Liang Cheng decided to keep it short, settle the Willow Creek murder case in a few words, and close the case quickly.

"Really?"

"That's great."

"I didn't expect the constable to find the cause of death of Da Long and Tie Zhu so quickly."

"Everyone doesn't have to worry anymore!"

"Constable is wise!"

...

As soon as Liang Cheng finished speaking, the villagers of Willow Creek started talking one after another.

The villagers of Willow Creek all looked happy and thanked Liang Cheng.

Since this incident happened, the villagers of Willow Creek had been living in fear.

The villagers didn't even dare to pick herbs in the mountains anymore, living in fear every day, afraid that they would encounter the real culprit who killed those people.

Even before dark, every household closed their doors tightly, hiding in their quilts shivering.

Among the villagers of Willow Creek, a figure ran out in small steps, it was a woman.

The woman had tears of sorrow on her face and knelt down in front of Liang Cheng.

"Constable, where is the real culprit who killed my husband? Please, sir, give me justice."

Seeing this, Liang Cheng strode forward, extended the boot of his knife, and stopped the woman from kneeling.

"I have already said that the real culprit has been executed by me on the spot."

With that, Liang Cheng waved to the constables behind him.

"You guys, bring out the things."

"Yes, sir!"

The constables, upon receiving their leader's signal, raised the wooden board they were carrying and then pulled open the white cloth.

A strangely shaped skeleton appeared on the wooden board, seemingly the skeleton of some kind of creature.

However, before everyone could see it clearly, it was covered up again with the white cloth within a few breaths.

Lu Xuan was speechless at this scene, he had already guessed what Liang Cheng was up to.

Lying through his teeth, it seems that Liang Cheng is very suitable to be a court official.

However, it's a bit of a waste for him to be a small constable in the county.

"This is a ferocious beast containing highly toxic poison, and those people died from its poison."

"According to my understanding, the poison of this ferocious beast can make the poisoned person go crazy, unaware of pain, and self-mutilate."

"The reason why those dead people could stand up again later was also because of this poison."

"This poison made outsiders think that those people were dead, but in fact, they were not dead at all, they were still hanging on to their breath, so this is why the dead could move."

Liang Cheng said a series of words without any pause, and his face was also the same, making it impossible to see any flaws.

The villagers of Willow Creek all looked serious, listening quietly to Liang Cheng's words.

Of course, I don't know if they understood or didn't understand, or maybe they weren't listening at all.

"Constable, can the old man see what kind of beast that is, the old man..."

Before the old village chief could finish speaking, Liang Cheng interrupted him.

"Alright, old village chief, since the Willow Creek murder case has been solved, and the real culprit has been executed by me on the spot, then I will take my leave first."

"There is no need to look at the ferocious beast, this is evidence, very important, I have to take it back to the county and hand it over to the county magistrate for a decision."

Liang Cheng decisively rejected the old village chief's request.

Because this ferocious beast skeleton was something he casually found with someone in the middle of the night.

He found several different animal skeletons and pieced them together randomly. If you look at it up close, it will be recognized by others at a glance.

"Old village chief, don't worry, and don't think wildly, Willow Creek is already safe,"

"There is only one such poisonous beast in the world, and it will not reappear in the world to harm people in the future."

Finally, Liang Cheng said meaningfully.

The old village chief was already suspicious, but after hearing Liang Cheng's meaningful words, he understood.

He had lived for most of his life, how could he not understand Liang Cheng's hidden meaning?

Liang Cheng meant that Willow Creek was already safe, and other unnecessary things were not his concern.

...

Outside the entrance of Willow Creek Village, dust rolled on the yellow dirt road, flying all over the sky.

One of the carriages was surrounded by five or six horses, disappearing into the horizon like stars surrounding the moon.

And these people who left were Lu Xuan and Liang Cheng.

Sitting in the carriage, Lu Xuan lifted the gray cloth curtain of the carriage behind him and took a deep look at the direction of Willow Creek Village.

Weird shadow?

Lu Xuan was still thinking about the weird black shadow he encountered last night.

Because this was Lu Xuan's first encounter with something supernatural, a real extraordinary being that appeared in front of him, bringing him 50 system points.

50 system points, Lu Xuan couldn't get so many system points even if he swallowed the Lu family's pharmacy.

Therefore, Lu Xuan kept in mind this supernatural thing that could bring him a lot of system points.

Lu Xuan had already made up his mind that he would continue to pay attention to the affairs of Willow Creek Village.

If this weird black shadow was really like Lu Xuan expected.

If it hadn't died, then it meant that Lu Xuan could kill it again to obtain a large number of system points.

In this way, Lu Xuan could deduce his cultivation techniques indefinitely, and his strength would no longer have bottlenecks, and he could improve without any scruples.
