"Don't forget, this is the old city! It's broad daylight, don't you think it's a little scary to be quiet here?"
While the little Taoist priest was talking, he picked up a brick from the corner of the wall.
When he said this, I really felt a little guilty.
After hesitating for a moment, I hurriedly bent down and picked up a brick, and then carefully pushed open the ajar door.
"Excuse me, is anyone there?"
As soon as I stepped into the yard with my front feet, I felt something was not right inside the house.
Although it is noon now, the time of day when the Yang Qi is at its strongest, the strong sunlight has shielded a lot of the Yin and Evil Qi.
But I can still clearly feel that something is very wrong with this normal direction.
"be careful!"
With my ability, I can tell that something is wrong. Naturally, the little Taoist priest also quickly noticed what was wrong.
With a flip of his right hand, the mahogany sword fell directly from his sleeve.
I didn't dare to be careless immediately. I held the coffin nails in one hand and held tightly a Qingwei Taishu Suppression Talisman in the other hand.
After seeing that everything was ready on my side, the little Taoist nodded silently towards me.
After a day here, the two of us cautiously walked in the normal direction.
When the little Taoist priest kicked open the door and rushed into the house, the bloody scene in the house immediately made my whole body feel chills.
This kind of old-fashioned house is very similar to the courtyard house in the imperial capital. For the convenience of living, even if it is in a normal location, it is usually divided into three parts.
There are two small rooms on the left and right, and the middle one is the living room.
At this moment, the floor of this small living room of less than 10 square meters was covered with blood that had turned black.
The four walls, about one meter high, were also covered with dense bloody handprints.
A naked, bald man was lying on the ground at this moment. There was almost no sparkle in his eyes, but his right hand was still tearing hard on his stomach...
The colorful internal organs were piled next to him. The weird scene immediately made me take a half step back.
"Damn, it's too late!"
Even the little Taoist priest who was used to big scenes looked extremely gloomy at this moment.
"Call, call the police, call an ambulance..."
This man has become like this now, and even if he knows something, he probably won't be able to tell it.
After a brief silence, the little Taoist priest stamped his feet and turned around, dejectedly speaking to me.
"But……"
In any case, this guy is not dead yet. At this time, I really want to go in and see if I can get some useful information from him.
"If you really step in, the two of us will really be confused!"
Just as I was about to enter the door, the little Taoist priest suddenly grabbed my wrist.
Hearing what he said, I was stunned for a moment, but then I realized, yes, the two of us are in the city now.
At this moment, there are bloody fingerprints all over the house. If the two of us go in and destroy the scene, we will be covered in blood and we will not be able to explain it when the police arrive.
In desperation, I could only take out my mobile phone, follow the little Taoist's instructions, call an ambulance for him, and call the police again.
"This guy will not survive. Even if the ambulance comes, it will be in vain..."
"The clues we finally found have been broken again!"
While I was talking, I punched the ground hard.
"What do you think that thing is?"
However, at this moment, I suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a half-foot print exactly like Hu Jinsong's at the corner of the courtyard wall.
After hearing what I said, the little Taoist priest immediately came closer. After observing carefully for a moment, he quickly took out his mobile phone and took a photo.
"This is the photo I took at Brother Hu's place that night!"
Watching his actions, I quickly pulled out the photos I took that night from my phone.
Putting the two photos together and comparing them, looking at the identical outline, both I and the little Taoist priest saw the horror in each other's eyes at this moment.
Now the two of us are basically certain that the footprints do not seem to have been left by the other party, but rather resemble the clues he deliberately left.
"Why do I feel like the other person knows you?"
After a moment of silence, the little Taoist priest suddenly spoke.
"What do you mean? Why didn't I see it?"
I looked at him with some confusion, I really didn't know where he came to such a conclusion.
"Don't you think this footprint is more like his provocation to you? No matter what you do, he will always be one step ahead of you. Not only will he cut off your clues, but he will also deliberately leave a mark!"
Hearing what he said, I was stunned for a moment. If I thought about it carefully, what the little Taoist said seemed to be quite reasonable.
"But I only know so many people, how could someone be so perverted, just to provoke me..."
Halfway through what I said, I suddenly froze.
"Just what?"
While the little Taoist priest was talking, he observed the situation of the small courtyard for four weeks.
"What kind of person do you think can leave half a footprint?"
"What did you think of?"
The little Taoist priest frowned and looked at me.
"Tell me first, what happened to the things in the deserted village?"
"What? You suspect it is!"
After hearing what I said, the little Taoist priest's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at me in disbelief.
"Tell me first, did that guy escape?"
But his shocked expression only confirmed my suspicion.
After a long silence, the little Taoist finally nodded silently.
At this moment, I really could only smile bitterly.
I should have fucking thought of this!
What kind of person can, when facing the wall, leave half a footprint on the ground at a distance that is almost touching the wall?
The answer, of course, is the man with only half a foot!
If you are an ordinary normal person, of course there is no way to do this.
But if it were the guy in the deserted village who was struck by dozens of lightning bolts for most of the night, and was still alive and kicking in a fight with a few old Taoist priests, then maybe it would be possible!
"If it's that thing, we can't deal with it at all..."
After taking a few deep breaths, the little Taoist priest lowered his voice and said.
"I also know that we can't deal with it, but..."
When I said this, I really just smiled bitterly. Indeed, this was really a difficult choice.
