NOVEL WEB Chapter 1 Strange Event
laugh…
Hee hee hee…
The strange child's laughter rang in his ears, causing Jiang Dao's mind to feel a twinge of pain. His eyes were dim and the light was distorted. It seemed that there was a strange child covered in black standing not far from his bed, with hollow pupils. The mouth was split and extended to the root of the ear, staring straight at him and smiling.
Jiang Dao groaned, opened his eyes with difficulty, and woke up suddenly, panting heavily.
The laughter in the ear quickly disappeared.
The light in front of my eyes is also slowly recovering.
There is a faint scent of sandalwood in the room, which calms the nerves.
It's a dream again...
He supported the edge of the bed, sat up with difficulty, his whole body was drenched, and was drenched in sweat.
It has been three days since I came to this world.
I thought it was just a world similar to the ancient feudal society, but I didn't expect that in just three days, the information I received was bizarre and unimaginable.
In a word, there are things in this world beyond human comprehension!
Three days ago, the original owner inadvertently broke into a house, and passed out at that time. At that time, he suddenly time-traveled, but after the time-travel, he had been dreaming the same dream for three days.
In the dream, a child with a black body, empty eyes, and a frightening grin was laughing in front of him.
At first the child was just outside his window, smiling at him through the window.
Then he went straight to his room.
Then it got closer and closer to his bed.
It seemed that with each passing night the children were brought closer to him.
Now the child is only six or seven meters away from his bed.
If that's all, that's all.
Over the past three days, murders have also occurred in other parts of Hengzhou City one after another, which is weird and thought-provoking.
There are even rumors that they have seen the resurrection of the dead...
All kinds of heresy, incredible.
Jiang Dao got up from the bed, coughed a few times, put on his boots and a thick mink fur, and opened the door.
Outside, the sun was shining, it was near noon.
Master, are you awake?
Biyu, the maid who was walking towards the door with lotus seed soup, hurriedly greeted her.
What's going on outside?
Jiang Dao asked.
He could hear the shouts from the front yard from inside the room.
Again...an accident happened again. Some servants in Jinyang Street are all dead, and now... other servants are clamoring to leave now.
Biyu said in a worried voice.
On the one hand, she was deeply horrified by the horrible death of those servants.
On the other hand, the recent serial murders in Hengzhou City are horrifying.
It's been half a month, and there have been murders every day, and people are panicking. I really don't know when it will end.
Now Hengzhou City has been completely blocked.
If it continues, I don't know how many people will die.
Jiang Dao thought for a while, and asked, How many servants have died, is it that kind of thing?
Yes, a total of six people died. Changbai Taoist has already gone to check.
Biyu nodded nervously.
Changbai Taoist...
A figure entered Jiang Dao's mind.
In my impression, this was half a month ago. The Jiang family spent a lot of money to invite a Youdao Quanzhen, who has the ability to suppress evil spirits and pray for others.
In the past half a month, Changbai Taoist has indeed solved several strange incidents, which is admirable.
but!
The character of this Taoist is not good.
Staying at Jiang's house means gradually deceiving the master.
The Jiang family is the largest merchant in the entire Hengzhou City. It has a lot of property and a wide range of businesses. It has access to four continents and thirteen counties. The family's property does not know how much it has. Although it has hired a lot of martial arts and guards, no matter how strong the martial arts are, they are only flesh and blood , but none of them could deal with that kind of evil spirit.
Therefore, Changbai Taoist relied on his magical secret skills to stay in Jiang's house, showing off his power and domineering others.
The money is settled on a daily basis, and 300 taels of silver must be obtained every day.
In addition, there are five meals a day, with wine at every meal, meat at each meal, servants to serve you when you go in and out, and maids to accompany you when you sleep, and you have to go to the pharmacy every now and then to get some expensive medicinal materials.
In fact, this Taoist has become more daring in the past few days, and he is not willing to let go of the members of the Jiang family.
In my impression, one of Jiang Dao's sisters was molested by that Taoist.
The Taoist joked that he wanted the third sister to serve him for a few days, but the third sister was too scared to go out for a few days.
Jiang Dao's father, Jiang Dalong just kept laughing, not daring to offend the Taoist, and only said to invite some young maidservants to accompany him, so that he didn't offend the Taoist.
The guest is bullying the master. If things go on like this, the Jiang family will be ruined...
Jiang Dao secretly said.
It's a pity that the old man's magical secret technique is extremely stingy, and he doesn't have the slightest intention to spread it outside.
Jiang Dao and Jiang Dalong asked the old Taoist more than once, hoping that the old Taoist would accept Jiang Dao as his disciple, but they were all rejected by the old Taoist for various reasons.
The old man seems to want to rely on this secret technique to kill the Jiang family for the rest of his life.
Jiang Dao suddenly took a step and walked towards the front yard.
Master, lotus seed soup...
Biyu hurriedly shouted.
Leave it alone, I'm not in the mood to drink now.
Jiang Dao left a message.
In the front yard, some low sobs sounded.
There was even more noise and noise.
Jiang Dao walked through a corridor and entered the front yard.
I saw several corpses on the spacious mossy ground, covered with white cloth, lying quietly on the ground, revealing the palms outside the white cloth, bruised and purple, as if dyed with paint, indescribably hideous and terrifying.
These are servants who died in vain before.
The respective family members wept bitterly in front of the corpse.
Pang Lin, the leader of the nursing home, had wide-eyed eyes and a stern look on his face. He held a thick iron rod in his hand, and stared at the few people in front of him who were clamoring to leave.
Now without the master's permission, no one is allowed to leave. Where is Dangjiang's house? Come and leave whenever you want? How can it be so simple, who dares to take a step and kill!
Pang Lin shouted.
Frightened by Pang Lin's aura, the servants who had already packed their packages turned pale and panicked.
You... don't you just rely on yourself knowing some martial arts? If you have the ability to fight evil spirits, what's the point of bullying us?
That's right, we don't want to die with the Jiang family, so don't drag us to be buried with us!
We are unarmed, and you are not a good man to bully us!
Several servants bit the bullet and shouted.
He's not a hero, are you?
Suddenly, an indifferent voice sounded.
A fat-faced middle-aged man in a short silk jacket with a gloomy face came from outside, and beside him was a gray-haired, goatee-bearded old man in green shirt with a smiling expression on his face.
Behind him followed more than a dozen guards wearing steel knives, with awe-inspiring aura.
Master is here!
Pang Lin quickly greeted him.
Several other nursing homes also stepped forward to salute.
The servants who wanted to run away immediately became nervous when they saw Jiang Dalong, the head of the Jiang family, coming back.
Jiang's family, as the richest businessman in Hengzhou City, is so powerful that they will kill a few family members casually, and the Yamen will not intervene at all.
master…
These servants all lowered their heads, not daring to look.
When the Jiang family is fine, they support you with three renminbi a month, but now when something happens to the Jiang family, they run faster than rabbits one by one. Do you really think my Jiang family is a benevolent place?
You don’t even ask one by one, in Hengzhou City, who can give you three silver coins a month, eat from my Jiang’s family, use my Jiang’s family’s, sleep with my Jiang’s family’s, now run away if something happens, there is such a cheap one thing? Don't forget the contract you signed, a ten-year contract for one person, and you want to leave so early, do you really think the Jiang family can be bullied?
Jiang Dalong's tone was cold.
The servants didn't even dare to raise their heads, and didn't even say a word of stubbornness.
Jiang Dalong snorted coldly, and said, Pang Lin, find someone to watch them. Anyone who dares to escape will be slaughtered on the spot, and the head will be mine!
Yes, sir!
Pang Lin's heart trembled, and he solemnly clasped his fists.
And you!
Jiang Dalong stared at the group of servants indifferently, Don't think that you will be fine if you run away secretly at night. From now on, whoever reports on those who run away without permission, I will reward you with 50 taels of silver, and those who do not report will be executed as well!
A group of servants were shocked.
50 taels?
How many years is this enough for them?
A group of people bowed their heads silently, no longer daring to think of running away, and left here one after another after smiling embarrassingly. ?
