110, Chapter 110

Hongluo Town is too small and has no county magistrate, but it is also a transportation hub with good connections. It is directly under the jurisdiction of Shangzhou and has a team of officials. The head of the town is called the town supervisor, and there is also a set of people under it.

After the first dead man who hung himself appeared, the head of the town jail immediately went to investigate the scene and eliminated the suspects. However, on the sixth day, a total of eight people have died, and eight bodies are neatly placed in the side courtyard of the yamen. The case has not been solved.

The rumors are born from this, and the wind and snow have not stopped these days, and everyone is stuck here, doing nothing, and is even more frightened, which leads to many bizarre and horrifying stories.

Some say that the widow in the town was humiliated and died by Xiao Xiaoling, some say that the barbarians came to make trouble in secret, and some say that these people were killed after offending a monk.

"The version I heard is different. It is said that many years ago, a family in the town was named Li. Because they had not been out for many years, they adopted an orphan. When the child was four or five years old, the mistress of the family was pregnant. Since then, they neglected their adopted son and indulged their subordinates in abuse and treatment, which eventually led to their adopted son to death. It is said that the day he died was also a night of wind and snow, so many people said that the adopted son turned into a ghost and came back to take revenge. He not only wanted to kill the family, but also the people in the entire Hongluo Town."

The resident of the house said vividly, only the little girl was trembling when she heard the sound of the few people in the house.

As for others, not to mention Yun Weisi, even the knowledgeable Lao He thought that this rumor was too fantasy, but because of politeness, he was patient and listened to it for the time being.

Although there is a charcoal basin in the house, the cold wind leaks in through the gaps in the window from time to time, making a whirring sound. Whose door outside is not closed properly. When the wind comes, it makes people feel uneasy.

Changming sat at the table, eating noodles with bites, slowly, as if he was not affected by external objects.

The little black dog lay beside him, swaying his tail, his eyes half-closed, and he was dozing off.

After Changming finished eating the noodles, the other party's story had not been finished. Yun Weisi was not interested in listening. He stood up and said goodbye first and took Changming away. The dog woke up with a trembling sound, stared at Yun Weisi fiercely, jumped off the table, bit the corner of Changming's robe, and was dragged away.

Old He couldn't help but serve tea and see off the guests, so he found an excuse to send the guests away.

This time he spent a lot of money to buy the second half of the inn, so he naturally even had the best house. The guests who came to visit were not so much like the next house, but rather as the next courtyard. They were separated from each other by a small courtyard. The other party was really bored to be trapped here for two days. He heard that a new caravan came, so he came to chat and inquire about the news.

He lived in the main house with his daughter and guards, while Changming Yunweisi and others were in the backyard.

He met the two by chance before, but he only invited them to travel through business because of peace. It is better to have more friends than to have more enemies. Now Lao He is extremely grateful for his kindness. Not only does his daughter save her life, but his experience on the road has turned into good luck. Now that he has come to this town, he heard that he is still haunted. With Yun Weisi and others, his heart is much more stable.

He patted his daughter and coaxed her to sleep faster, while secretly praying that the weather would clear tomorrow so that they could set off quickly and leave this lively and weird place.
