Chapter 16 The Ghost Feeder
"You didn't kill people, why do you do so quickly?"
Putting his left hand on the long knife around his waist, Zhou Qing looked at the delicate girl in front of him and asked.
"I'm afraid that someone will die here. Of course I'll run away, otherwise would you stay here and wait for death..."
The girl's reason is straightforward.
"Then can you explain to me what this is?"
He took out the short knife that was inserted obliquely between the girl's waist and exhaled two smog from his mouth. Zhou Qing asked with his eyes narrowed,
"If I remember correctly, the Youhai Flower Boat is forbidden from carrying weapons. Don't say that this was specially taken to protect yourself when you ran away!"
Obviously, this thief girl is still a saving grace. When she ran away, she didn't forget to pick up the short knife that had just fallen to the ground.
"I......"
This short knife is indeed hers, how do you explain it?
Do you have to tell the other party that he is actually a thief, but his wallet was stolen by someone else, so he could only come over with a knife and snatch it back?
The Youhai Flower Boat deals with the thief very simply. Cut the wrist artery and soak it in the water for 5 minutes. If it doesn’t die... then continue soaking!
This is the rule written at the entrance of the Youhai Flower Boat.
In this vast sea, life is worthless!
His eyes drifted and eventually fell on the two men not far away. They were all blamed. If they hadn't stole their own wallets, they would have suffered such a crime.
Wait, can he testify to himself?
"I've been with them just now. They can testify to me, I didn't kill anyone!"
He raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Lu Jing and the others, so everyone's eyes turned to somebody who touched a chicken leg from somewhere, and they had just put it into someone's mouth.
He raised his hand and pointed at himself with a confused look on his face. Lu Jing took out the bone in his mouth, shook his head, and then moved his eyes away.
"You bastard, you will not recognize others if you eat it all?"
The girl broke free from the clamping and rushed to Lu Jing. The ambiguity of words made the eyes around her immediately become weird. The latter thought she was going to continue to curse, but what she saw was a small face with pear blossoms on the rain.
"Everyone is here, please help me, and I will thank you very much in the future!"
"Who is with you...1 golden leaf."
The tear attack was useless to Lu Jing.
"I don't have that much money, at most 20 silver dollars..."
"Well, I'm not the one who is used as bait anyway."
"Okay, 1 golden leaf is just 1 golden leaf."
"She gave me a fruit plate, and it was indeed next to me when the dead person was dead, but I didn't know her. As for the short knife, I don't know where it came from."
Lu Jing, who had long thought that this woman would probably pull herself out as a shield, explained, looked back at Xu Zhuo, saw him nodding in agreement, and then continued,
"Manager Zhou, if we may have a way to help you find the murderer, I wonder if there is any reward?"
"oh?"
Zhou Qing stared at Lu Jing, and his eyes stayed on the chicken legs in his hand and the oily corners of his mouth for a few seconds, and said,
"Of course, 30 silver dollars, you just need to tell me who the murderer is, and I will solve the rest."
Zhou Qing knew in his heart that the woman he caught was not the murderer, and she didn't have the ability!
But if the person in front of him did not stand up, he wouldn't mind using this foul-distance person to temporarily suppress the panic of the masses.
"I can only guarantee that the murderer can be found when he is not a human being. If some special person is at work, it will probably be difficult."
Lu Jingke didn't plan to really spend time on this ship. They were just here to have a meal. They had to go to Huashu Island tomorrow morning, walked quickly to Zhou Qing, pointed to the limp body on the bench,
"I didn't hear any strange sounds when she died, and the dancers were by her side at that time, and you should understand what I mean."
"It seems that your Excellency is also extraordinary..."
After listening to Lu Jing's words, Zhou Qing's face became a little solemn. He waved his hand to signal the person next to the body to retreat, and bowed to Lu Jing to show respect.
"I don't know how you plan to find the murderer?"
"That depends on my friend's ability."
Lu Jing also wanted to know what Xu Zhuo said before was that he could attract monsters in a specific environment.
"Can you lend me a short knife?"
Under the gaze of everyone, Xu Zhuo walked to the side of the corpse and stood still, took the short knife thrown by Zhou Qing, and turned his eyes to Lu Jing.
"Captain, if something is attracted later, you have to protect me."
"Don't worry, if something really happens, I will definitely die before you."
Lu Jing stood in front of Xu Zhuo, and blue light appeared in the palm of his left hand.
Zhou Qing behind him almost noticed it the moment Lu Jing called out the torrent card. He sucked two spits of the smoke gun. The gray-white mist gushed out of his mouth and nose but did not dissipate in the air like before, but remained beside him.
Draw the knife out of the sheath, and directly stroked his palm, facing upwards, allowing the blood from the wound to gush out.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing Xu Zhuo's self-mutilation, Lu Jing was stunned for a moment.
"This is how I can control my abilities. Don't worry, the wound is not deep. I will put some wound medicine on and wrap it with a layer of bandage, and it will be scabbed in half a day."
It seems that he has been used to this approach for a long time, and Xu Zhuo seems to be at ease.
Lu Jing opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but his eyes suddenly turned to behind Xu Zhuo. In the shadows in the corner there, he noticed a strange aura. Almost as he realized this, a black shadow flew out from it and headed straight for Xu Zhuo!
"Everyone stepped back!"
Before Lu Jing could remind him, Zhou Qing had already jumped out and blocked the black shadow's path forward, slashing out the long sword in his hand.
Ding ~
It was like the clanging sound of iron tools colliding, and a series of sparks splashed.
At this time, Lu Jing had already used the torches around to see clearly what the black shadow was, and then he took a breath of air conditioning like others around him.
It was a monster with a size of two circles smaller than a newborn baby. Not only was it black, but the skin was as sticky as oil. The limbs were thick and short, and there were sharp hooks at the ends. What was even more disgusting was the three-flap mouthpiece that occupied two-thirds of the size of the head and had sharp teeth. You could see the sticky saliva and dark red blurred pieces in it when you opened and closed.
"This little thing looks so unique..."
Compared to this thing, Lu Jing even thinks that the fish monsters he met before are quite beautiful!
At this time, Zhou Qing had already fought with the monster. Although the monster's strength was not as strong as Zhou Qing, it was because of its extremely fast speed and its body seemed to be extremely tough. Zhou Qing could only cut it away after several slashes and could not really hurt it.
"If you keep it for a long time, you will lose it. If you continue to fight like this, you may have problems."
Xu Zhuo looked at the battle with some concern.
"Don't worry, this man's means are not just the knife in his hand."
Lu Jing did not mean to force himself to intervene, but stared at the gray and white mist that had always lingered around Zhou Qing.
"In fact, compared to the battle here, I care more about where this monster came from... This kind of thing can't appear out of thin air, right?"
Ding ~
After another collision, Zhou Qing seemed to have figured out the monster's way of action, and made a sword finger with his left hand and stabbed the monster that had just flew backwards.
Immediately afterwards, the mist around the body turned into dozens of fog silk threads and rushed out, wrapping the monster tightly in just a few seconds.
He picked up the bong at his waist again, put the hole in front of the tobacco leaves at the front and blew it suddenly, and a series of sparks floated up. The next second, the fog lines suddenly rose like gunpowder leads, igniting towards the entangled monster.
However, at this moment, a tentacle rushed out of the trap and forcibly broke the threads.
The monster no longer attacks after getting out of trouble, but crawls toward somewhere in the crowd.
