Chapter 10 Headless General
Yu Xuanchi watched them speak, unmoved.

He said: "All inns in the city will be closed before dark, and the people in the city will also go home early and stay behind closed doors. They are afraid of the dark night, and this is the key point. Maybe when the night comes, all questions will be answered."

Jin Xiangyi: "Then let's just split up. It's almost dark now, you go out to check the situation, Su Xinling and I stay in the inn to see if we can get some information from the shopkeeper. ."

"Yeah." Yu Xuanchi nodded indifferently, then his body flashed and disappeared again.

Seeing him disappear, Su Xinling turned her head and asked, "Goddess, what should we do next?"

Jin Xiangyi stood up and said, "Are you hungry?"

"Ah?" Su Xinling froze for a moment, "A little bit."

"Then eat first." Jin Xiangyi grinned, "Speaking of which, this is my first time in the world. What does the food in the world taste like? Is it delicious?"

She blinked at Su Xinling, her eyes full of curiosity.

Su Xinling: "..." She smiled and said, "The goddess is joking, no matter how good the things in the world are, how can the nectar from the heavens be so precious?"

Jinxiang moved forward and said carelessly, "That's not the same. In my opinion, things in the heavens always have a little less flavor, smell delicious, and eat blandly."

"Really? Maybe when the goddess eats food from the world, she won't think so." Su Xinling said softly.

The two came to the lobby, and just sat down, the shop assistant brought the side dishes over: "Please take it slow."

When leaving, the shop assistant also looked at Su Xinling.When he got a gentle smile from the other party, he immediately turned red and left, leaving only a small caramel.

Jin Xiangyi: "..." She sighed in her heart, people with good-looking faces are treated differently.

The dishes brought by the second shopkeeper are rich, the colors are beautiful, and they look very appetizing.Jin Xiangyi stretched out his chopsticks and added a piece of meat.The sour and spicy taste burst open in her mouth, and a different kind of taste filled her lips and teeth.

She couldn't help taking another bite.

Su Xinling asked with a smile, "Is it still good for your appetite?"

Jin Xiangyi's eyes lit up: "Hey! This taste is amazing!"

At this time, the shop assistant and the shopkeeper also sat down at another table, and they were also ready to eat dinner.

Jin Xiangyi praised: "The dishes made by your inn are really delicious!"

The shop assistant smiled shyly and said, "It's good that the guest officer likes it."

Jin Xiangyi smiled sincerely, and then rolled his eyes, and asked, "Oh right, the shopkeeper, I want to ask you something, how many villages are there outside Yanbo City?"

The shopkeeper: "What is the guest officer asking this for?" She thought about it and said, "There are about ten villages, with a total of more than a thousand people."

Jin Xiangyi lied casually: "To be honest, my sister and I came here to look for relatives, but we lost the relative's address on the way here, we only remember that they were in Yanbo City, but we forgot which village they were in. .

"So I wanted to inquire and see if I could find someone."

The second shopkeeper said, "If the guest officer wants to search from village to village, it will be troublesome. There are so many people in and out of the city, I'm afraid they won't be able to find anyone within a month."

The shopkeeper is not like the second shopkeeper who does not have a city government.She looked at the attire of Jin Xiangyi and Su Xinling, then calmly looked away, saying:

"I'm afraid that in Yanbo City, there are no two people you are looking for. If you have nothing else to do, you should leave as soon as the sun rises. This is not the place you should come."

The shopkeeper bowed his head to eat, but thought in his heart, looking at the clothes of these two, they don't look like they were born in a poor family, but rather like children from a wealthy family.How can children from rich families come to our small town to find relatives?
She speculated that the two should be lying and deceiving people, but in fact they had other purposes.

But no matter what the purpose is, they can't let people stay in Yanbo City.

"The shopkeeper guessed wrong. We want to find someone in Yanbo City. We just haven't found them yet." Jin Xiangyi said with a smile, "But the shopkeeper has a saying that I don't quite understand. Where did you come from'?"

As she said that, she gave Su Xinling a look.

The shopkeeper looks shrewd and not easy to handle.The only breakthrough is this store's second.

Dian Xiao Er seems to be indifferent, weak and kind, and likes good-looking people. It is quite easy to pry her mouth open, as long as the beautiful sister pretends to be wronged.

Su Xinling understood in her heart.She blinked her eyes cooperatively, and said innocently: "Sister, do they mean that we are not very welcome?"

Her eyes suddenly turned red, with tears in her eyes, and she was about to shed tears: "Did I do something wrong that made the shopkeeper unhappy? If that's the case, I-I am willing to apologize!"

Jin Xiangyi smiled slightly, patted her head, took up the posture of a close sister, and said, "How can it be, the shopkeeper didn't mean that. I think the shopkeeper wanted to say that there is danger in Yanbo City, so Just tell us to leave."

"Really, the shopkeeper?" Jin Xiangyi looked at the shopkeeper.

The corner of the shopkeeper's mouth pursed tightly: "..." These two people are a bit difficult to deal with.

Su Xinling added another fire: "Why doesn't the shopkeeper speak? Sister, you lied to me, the shopkeeper must be angry." After she finished speaking, she was about to cry.

Jin Xiangyi stared at it for a moment, thinking, does anyone really cry when they say they cry?
At this time, the second shopkeeper said quickly, "No, no, you don't mind, guest officer, the shopkeeper is not angry, and he doesn't mean to hate you. In fact, in our town, indeed—"

The shopkeeper suddenly shouted sharply, "Xiaoyun!"

Xiaoyun shuddered, and immediately lowered his head and stopped talking.

Jinxiang Yi restrained her smile and said, "Actually, I wanted to say it for a long time, the problem of your Yanbo City is not small. Since we entered the city, the only people we saw were women, and there was even a man on the street. There is no shadow, as if all the men in the city are dead."

She put down her chopsticks and asked, "What are you afraid of? You are in a hurry to close, but you still prepare meals for guests after closing, indicating that you are still in business. But why do you close the store so early? What will happen after dark?"

Su Xinling said: "What should I do, sister, we won't be in danger, right?"

Jin Xiangyi: "Oh, that's fine. There are no men in the city, only women are walking outside, which means that it is men who are in danger, and it has nothing to do with us."

She turned her head to look at the shopkeeper and said, "Speaking of which, the shopkeeper expelled one of our companions from the inn before. He is also a man. Seeing that there is danger in the city, forget it if you don't save them. How can you push him out? Isn't this harmful?"

Xiaoyun couldn't help but said, "That's not the case. The shopkeeper didn't mean to harm others, we just didn't want the headless general to come to us!"

Jin Xiangyi: "Headless General?"

Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, the shopkeeper had to sigh and say:

"You're right, the current Yanbo City is very dangerous. Just a month ago, the headless general appeared in Yanbo City, and he would show up every night. I heard that he carried a meniscus sword with him. , Wherever he goes, the man will not leave his mouth alive."

Xiaoyun's face turned pale, and his body shook a bit: "When we found out, all the men who were silenced had their heads gone, their bodies were stiff, and they bled to death."

When she said this, the whole inn was silent.The candles lit around were shaking slightly—

Suddenly, a shrill scream came from the long street outside the inn: "Help, help!—"
