After stealing the divorce book, Princess Salted Fish fell off her horse

Chapter 243 Vampire Monster
Chu Yuncheng, who got the news, wanted to watch with Chu Xinyuan that Chu Chengye was courting Miss Ming. However, Chu Xinyuan, who was in charge of the Gyeonggi Guard West Guard, went to see him in person because of a case in Beijing. went to the scene.

Usually, Jing Zhaoyin is in charge of the case, but this case is very difficult, Jing Zhaoyin's policemen couldn't handle it, so they submitted a petition to Jingji Wei for assistance.

Although the commander of the Gyeonggi Guards was born in the general family and made great achievements, he was brave and intrepid. In addition, Chu Xinyuan took the initiative to invite Ying, so he was naturally happy to relax.

At this time, Chu Xinyuan squatted on the ground, and several corpses lay irregularly in front of him.

Those corpses had scratches on their bodies, but the fatal wounds were tooth marks on their necks. The corpses were shriveled, as if the blood had been sucked out of their bodies.

This place is called Xiaotun Village, a village on the outskirts of Beijing. In the past two months, more than a dozen cases have occurred.

It is said that the first deceased was a woodcutter who went into the mountain to chop firewood. When his body was found, he had been dead for three days, in the weeds by the roadside, and the firewood was still on the roadside.

The villagers of Xiaotun Village immediately reported to the county government, and the county sent police officers to search, but found no clues.

A few days later, when a medicinal doctor passed by this road, he never returned.The found corpse also sucked all the blood from its body.

Among them was a young man who was the only son of a wealthy businessman. His father privately offered a reward of 1 taels of silver for the murderer's head.

Every five or six days, someone will die tragically.

Some family members of the victims have offered rewards to avenge their dead relatives one after another, and the reward has been increased to 8000 taels.This is already a considerable sum.

There are also bounty hunters who come to try their luck.

But those bounty hunters with strong skills and full of self-confidence either didn't find even a hair of clues, or they just lost their lives here, and they were also sucked into mummies, and they were not spared!
After coming and going, there were rumors of ghosts in Xiaotun Village, so that almost no one dared to take this road unless necessary.But this is the only way to enter and leave Beijing, so people who know the inside story go together when the sun is still there. This method seems to be good, and it stopped for a while.

Unexpectedly, something happened when they were traveling together. Three days ago, a caravan of eight people brought horses and goods, and it was daytime, but they were still not spared.The men and horses became shriveled corpses.

The county government sent five policemen to come, blood-sucking monsters, shriveled corpses, etc., are really frightening. A series of tragedies have not been solved so far, and the hair of the county magistrate is going to be grey.

As a result, the five-member police team never came back.The county hurriedly reported to Jing Zhaoyin, and Jing Zhaoyin urgently asked for assistance from Jingji Wei.

They are the ones in front of Chu Xinyuan.

Chu Xinyuan had examined the corpse, and also looked at the corpses of the eight-person caravan still parked in the Yizhuang of the county government.

Those scars are not many, but more like scratches from struggling. Everyone died in panic. The blood-sucking monsters have the same teeth as humans, and they bite through the blood vessels in their necks to suck blood. They can suck blood from five to eight people at a time. The blood volume, obviously has a big appetite, what kind of monster is that?

The surrounding traces are very chaotic, and the footprints are very mixed. After comparing them one by one, only those of the deceased are not suspicious.

The Gyeonggi Guard he brought clenched the weapon in his hand, but still felt chills coming from his body. The terrified appearance of those dead before death was really scary.

But their leader just frowned, looking through one by one, making them gradually convinced while being afraid.

I thought he was a pampered prince who came here to mix military power and seniority, but since he took office, everything he has done has made them respect and fear from the initial contempt.

Chu Xinyuan didn't pay attention to the fearful and awe-inspiring eyes of the Gyeonggi guards. He remembered the wounds of the deceased, the positions where they fell to the ground, and the entire terrain in his heart, and deduced the process in his heart.

Finally, he said to Jing Zhaoyin's deputy, You Fufeng Cao Yan: "Looking at the wound, the murderer looks like a man but not a man. He didn't come from the mountain, but from the village. It may also come from other places, and he took a certain place in the village as his foothold. .It needs to suck blood for a period of time, but after sucking blood, it will be silent for a while."

This inference is tenable, because there are also people from other places who don't know about it and pass through the village without incident.Probably just when the monster rested and didn't need to suck blood.

Looking at the corpses, Cao Yan said with lingering fear, "Your Highness, what kind of monster is this? Can you catch it?"

Chu Xinyuan said: "At present, there are no witnesses, so it is impossible to determine what the monster is."

He pondered for a while, and then said: "I didn't see the monster's footprints. Although it can't be ruled out that these footprints disappeared due to wind blowing or a long time. But it can't be ruled out that the monster's movements are fast, or its body is very light or small. , Jump directly onto the person and attack."

Following his description, everyone imagined the scene in their hearts, and they were suddenly terrified.

Cao Yan said: "His Royal Highness, the monster is now limited to your speculation. Can the monster be caught?"

"Not for the time being!" Chu Xinyuan shook his head, and said, "At present, we can only infer such a monster based on speculation. But we don't know its habits, where it is, and when it comes and goes!"

Cao Yan was a little embarrassed: "Your Highness, what should we do then? Are we going to stay here forever?"

It's weird to stay here, think about it, that strange thing that comes and goes without a trace, and has no idea what it looks like, may appear by your side at any time, maybe if you don't pay attention, you will lose your life .

Chu Xinyuan shook his head and said, "You don't have to stay here!"

Cao Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "According to His Highness's guess, when will we come again?"

Chu Xinyuan's eyes were still on those corpses, and he responded casually: "This king will stay here until the monster shows its whereabouts. You wait for this king's notice before coming back!"

Cao Yan and the others couldn't help but stare, this His Royal Highness King Liang wants to stay here?
Who knows when the monsters will show up?
Since it is a monster, how can manpower deal with it?

His Royal Highness King Liang is just joking with his own life?
Cao Yan quickly persuaded: "Your Highness, why do you need to do this yourself? It's too dangerous, let others do it!"

Chu Xinyuan glanced at him lightly: "To whom? Or to you?"

Cao Yan was startled, and hurriedly waved his hands: "No, no, no, this official is a literati, and his hands have no strength to restrain a chicken. This official has more than enough heart but not enough strength!"

He just had good intentions, but he didn't want to put himself in it.

Chu Xinyuan said: "Okay, you can take your people and leave, and transport these corpses back to the government office, and put them in Yizhuang first, and the king will inform you if there is any news."

Now Cao Yan didn't dare to persuade him anymore, and hurriedly took Jing Zhaoyin and the people from the county government to collect the mummy on the ground and left.

Chu Xinyuan asked the Gyeonggi Guards to leave as well.
