The crow of the rooster was like a signal, causing Mai Fan and other surrounding small courtyards to suddenly become less lively. When Mai Fan turned over from bed, his grandfather had slept a little late.
Because, he was still asleep. He tiptoed out of the yard, and in the way an ancient man should do, he started to clean up the things that should be done in the morning. First, he fetched water from the well in the courtyard for washing.
, the stove in the backstage had some charcoal fire stewed last night, and all it took was a pull with the iron hook, and the open fire started again. He pulled out half of the bundles of firewood bought from outside and piled them there. After a while, the big stove was
It was burning like a raging fire.
The hot water from the fire came out of the furnace, and the cold and hot water gave me a comfortable warm bath. This morning, I washed away the bad luck and felt refreshed. After Mai Fan had finished cleaning up, a new pot
The bath water was also prepared, and Mai Fan's grandfather also woke up from many dreams. He got up and washed himself in the simple kitchen they had packed up. Then Mai Fan took the most low-key outfit.
After I came out and dressed neatly, I opened the courtyard door and walked straight to the small restaurant next to it.
As a person who opens the door for business, he naturally has to start earlier than other people in the room. The smell of food has already spread from the small restaurant. The early meals are not prepared by the cook or the proprietress here.
To do this, they rented the front door of the restaurant where they got up early to a small businessman who came here to do business. The couple used their morning time to sell breakfast for a while to supplement the family income. In normal days, they would
At the inner corner of this commercial street, there is a small grocery store selling needlework and thread, where some small businesses are doing business.
You must know that the business of this small restaurant in the morning is much better than the business of selling groceries for the whole day. It is precisely because of the extra income early that they can maintain the right to survive on this street, Mai
When this early-rising guest turned around, he also saw the variety of breakfast here. To be honest, it was quite light and clean, which suited his modern appetite. He ordered 2 bowls of clear porridge, a few boiled eggs, and...
Serve several plates of delicious side dishes. Although it seems a little more luxurious than others, it is not so exaggerated as to require meat stew and pure meat-filled pancakes.
Not long after, Mai Fan's grandfather also came out. When the grandfather and grandson were eating face to face, they naturally heard the gossip of those who had to work at night. I don't know how they were killed again.
The two of them basically came to the conclusion from this breakfast that as police officers in the yamen, the soft and glutinous porridge cooked in this tavern was very popular with them, who had been working all night. Last night
That scream was not only heard by Mai Fan and the neighbors, but also the government officials who specially stepped up patrols in this area naturally heard the sound. After they rushed to the source of the sound at the first time, it was a pity that after
I remembered the sound here, and when they rushed over, the tragedy of annihilating the family had already happened.
When they chased the sound to the next place and rushed over, the culprit had disappeared without a trace. What they saw was another place where a family had been wiped out. And the most abominable thing was that this family was wiped out.
There is no pattern. One is the owner of an academy gentleman who is quite literary on this street, and the other is a pure civilian city away from this street, purely selling feet, working hard, and working in
The only thing similar to the porter's family on the dock is that there is no one alive in the family.
The so-called "no living thing" means that all living things were killed by this unknown vicious creature. The scholar's family kept several very fierce guard dogs, and the mistress of the house also kept several dogs.
Cats as pets, even so, these cats and dogs bleed with their owners. At the same time, the civilians who died did not have any pets in their homes, but it was strange that the living conditions in that house were not very good.
Inside, you would always see some big rats and the like, and this kind of rat that was not a pet at all also died with the family.
It can be seen that everything alive in this room, whether it is a human or other creature, will inevitably encounter the curse of death. It can be seen that this is a vicious creature, and it does not matter whether you are a human or something. If you see his
If you are in the victim's field, you can only admit that you are unlucky. Just like this, the servant who was running around but couldn't find any clues. After working all night, his temper was so angry that he really had no clues. What's a bit strange is that this creature seems to have originally been
The one he chose was not a poor family, and he didn't even think about leaving this commercial street. He obviously wanted to take a look at Mai Fan's braid.
But unfortunately, its first and second attacks had no effect, and it suffered a little loss. After that, it had no choice but to fall back and choose the lives of other families. So this group
After the officers retired from duty, they rushed here to have breakfast. This was one source. Another source was that they wanted to see who lived in this small courtyard who could withstand the attack of this vicious creature.
By the time Mai Fan and his grandfather had finished their breakfast and had finished listening to all the gossip, they looked up and saw a table full of police officers, all looking towards them.
They knew in their hearts that the chatting was a little too loud, and the main reason why they didn't avoid them was to see how Mai Fan's family would react. So Mai Fan didn't stop him, he wanted to stay here for 7 days.
God, it's not like he can go back after waiting another 7 hours, so he took the initiative to step forward and tell everyone his name. Then, while dispelling the other person's doubts, he also let the other person know why he was spared death.
"Everyone, I am a businessman from a foreign city. This Luhua City used to be my grandfather's former residence. He traveled abroad for many years as a businessman and is now a little older. He wants to settle here, so we rent a house in this city now.
After finding a suitable house, I will hide it here. But when I arrived at Guibao yesterday, I found that a tragedy happened in the front yard of this street. My grandfather was a little worried, so he used some methods
, I asked for several powerful talismans from Baiyun Temple and Shanshen Temple, and put them all up in the front yard, back hall and living room.
There were probably three kinds of weird things that passed by in our courtyard yesterday, but they were blocked by him perfectly every time. The last one was particularly powerful. Look at the talisman in my hand. It only takes a random kid to block it.
