The First Beastmaster of the Nine Realms

Chapter 189 Reflections
Jian Baisan paused.

She stopped the man: "Why didn't they make a sound?"

"No one had time to call—" The man looked at Jian Baisan with a tired face, "Before they had time to call, they all died. We only found out when we knocked on the door early in the morning."

Jian Baisan thought for a while and asked, "You don't dare to go out at night, do you?"

The man looked at the direction Jian Baisan was coming from, twitched his mouth, and said, "You are really brave——At first, the people who died were all people who were not at home. Later, it was family by family that died. If you die, you have to die with your family."

"But last night," Jian Baisan said, "I met a little girl in the cemetery, and I went there only when I heard screams. Not only did she make a sound, but she wasn't dead yet."

The man's face changed unnaturally: "Well, you should stay away from that dirty girl."

After speaking, he will leave.

Gao Manzheng frowned.

Jian Baisan stopped him bluntly: "Wait."

"I want to know about that little girl."

The man turned around again, and said firmly: "It has nothing to do with her anyway, why are you asking this?"

Jian Baisan asked strangely, "How do you know that it has nothing to do with her?"

The man choked.

"—You can think about it as you like. Anyway, that girl is a deaf person with no father or mother. What can she do?"

Jian Baisan asked, "Does she have no other relatives?"

"Yes," the man said succinctly, "no one wants her."

"why?"

"She's useless at all." He said, "Why raise her for nothing?"

Gao Manzheng asked strangely: "What do you mean? Even if you can't listen, you can learn how to cultivate the land. Why is it useless?"

The man's expression turned ugly again, "It's useless anyway, and it has nothing to do with her, so don't ask."

Jian Baisan thought for a while and said, "Okay."

She turned to Gao Manzheng and said, "Can you do me a favor?"

Gao Manzheng: "Say it."

"Can I call Zhongqi?"

Gao Manzheng called Zhongqi over.

The man said: "Besides this, did you see anything else?"

Jian Baisan pointed at the man and said, "Please help me restrain him."

It was the first time that Gao Manzheng met someone other than his wife who dared to instruct him as a Marquis, and he was taken aback when he heard this.

Zhongqi didn't hesitate, kicked the man down to the ground, before the man could struggle, Jian Baisan squatted down, and pressed the fruit knife in his sleeve to his neck.

"Say." Jian Baisan said with a blank expression, "She's very important, I'm in a hurry to leave. I'll ask a question, and you answer."

The man yelled: "I said she has nothing to ask!"

Jian Baisan raised the knife and cut off a corner of his ear.

Zhongqi stepped onto the man's body and pressed him tightly.

Amidst his yelling, Jian Baisan asked questions.

"first question."

"Why is she useless?"

"Because, because... she won't be able to have children in the future, what's the use of a hen that doesn't lay eggs!"

Jian Baisan asked: "How do you know she is sterile? She is very young."

"It has nothing to do with me! It has nothing to do with me!" the man yelled, "If she hadn't run in front of a group of men with her bare butt every day, how could this happen!"

Jian Baisan asked: "What does this matter refer to?"

Zhongqi, who was pressing down on the man, came to his senses, let out a "fuck", and said angrily, "You beasts!"

Gao Manzheng closed his eyes: "Listen to the description, it's still a child—"

"That's why you think she's 'dirty'." Jian Baisan's face became colder, "Who knows about this?"

The man looked at her face, but didn't speak.

is everyone.

It turned out that everyone knew about it, but everyone hated her.

Not only that……

Jian Baisan remembered her flinching.

Jian Baisan has fought against others countless times, so she is very sensitive to the opponent's hand touching her waist and pulling out her weapon. Sometimes, when someone's hand brushes her waist inadvertently, she will reflexively want to draw the sword.

Then a person flinching at the gesture of raising his hand can only mean one thing.

She was afraid of raising her hand.

The action had hurt her, many, many times.

"what is her name?"

The man said: "No, there is no name..."

Jian Baisan remembered the tombstone, "What's her surname? Is her mother's surname Xu?"

"No, it's not," the man said, "Her father doesn't know who it is, and her mother has no name or surname..."

They were all silent.

Zhongqi couldn't bear it anymore, and punched the man's nose hard, causing two lines of bright red nosebleeds to flow down.

Jian Baisan took a long breath and let it out again, holding back his murderous intent, and said, "Next question."

"Who was that murderous corpse from your village before he was alive? What's the relationship with this girl?"

The man said: "That... that thing doesn't belong to our village. The corpse floated along the water."

Jian Baisan was taken aback again when he heard the words.

All of them thought that the corpse was from their village.

After all, this village is too remote, there are no people around!

Hearing this answer, even Gao Manzheng couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "You guys are so kind that you'll pick up the corpse and bury it?"

The man said: "I thought it was a living person, but who knew it was a dead person!"

Jian Baisan stood up: "Where is the corpse now, lead the way."

"No!" The man struggled again, with an expression of extreme fear on his face: "You can't go, you can't look, you can't touch!"

Jian Baisan turned cold, "Lead the way!"

"No, no, no, I don't want to die yet, I don't want to die yet, I won't go..."

As if being stabbed, Zhongqi suddenly jumped up from the man, his face flushed.

A small patch of his trousers was wet at the hip.

The man on the ground rolled his eyes and passed out, peeing all over the floor.

A person who doesn't take other people's life seriously is so weak.

Gao Manzheng took a step back indiscriminately, pinched his nose and said, "Kick him out."

Zhongqi mercilessly kicked him out of the yard with two kicks.

Every foot is kicked against the ribs.

"So," Gao Manzheng turned to look at Jian Baisan, "What is Xiaoyou Jian thinking now?"

Jian Baisan said: "...find that little girl first, give her something to eat, and change her clothes."

"I'm very uncomfortable," Jian Baisan said, "I need to rest. Let's discuss other things later."

A long-lost smile appeared on Gao Manzheng's face: "I also have the same intention. That girl should be afraid of us men, so Zhong Qi should follow far away. I'll ask Xiaobi to find her."

Jian Baisan nodded and pointed, "She ran in this direction from the cemetery yesterday."

With her here, this mystery should be solved soon.

As soon as Jian Baisan entered the room, he fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.

When she woke up, it was Liu Jingyun who woke her up: "It's getting dark, sister Jian."

Jian Baisan asked, "Has that little girl been found?"

Liu Jingyun obviously already knew about it, with a solemn expression: "...we didn't find it."

"It's empty in that direction, only the yizhuang in their village, which smells particularly bad. It's full of corpses that have died in the past few days and have not been buried, and there are a few coffins here and there."

"Xiaobi and the others looked at the door, but they didn't see anyone at all."

"No one—"

　Last week was really busy, but I really don't know how to coo!
