Worship tomorrow

Chapter 13

Luo Qingfeng's heartbeat accelerated.

The footsteps stopped beside the bed, and then, a cold little hand was placed on his forehead.

"Ah, Brother Afeng's head is so hot!"

It was Su Zhaoer's voice.

Zi'er also walked in quickly, stretched out her little hand and touched it, her face suddenly changed: "Young master has a fever, I will go find the doctor."

"Zi'er, no need."

At this time, Luo Qingfeng opened his eyes and his voice became hoarse: "No need to go to the doctor, just give me some medicine and rest for a few days."

The body feels hot, probably because of the practice.

However, we can take advantage of this opportunity to continue to postpone the marriage ceremony, and then seize the time to continue practicing, striving to light up the star lantern as soon as possible and become a true practitioner.

The identity of the bride is unknown now, so it is naturally impossible for him to just visit her and get married.

Zi'er hurriedly said: "Master, let me go and make some medicine."

After the little maid left, Su Zhaoer sat down by the bed, reached out and touched his forehead, and said with worry on his face: "Brother Afeng, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

No, I'm scared.

Luo Qingfeng tried his best to keep calm on his face: "I'm fine. I'll just rest for a few days."

Then he sighed and said, "Zhao'er, I'm sorry, I can't get married to you today."

Seeing that the girl was silent, he was afraid of offending her, so he quickly said: "Tomorrow, when I get better tomorrow, we will go to the church to get married."

Tomorrow is tomorrow, tomorrow is so much.

It is a day to be able to delay.

He has two things to do now.

The first is to light up the star lantern and become a true practitioner.

The second is to find out the true identity of the bride.

If someone else is pretending to be someone else, it's easy to handle. Just drive him away or report him to the official. But if it's not a person, but...

That would be terrible!

He couldn't help but think of the demon coming to Linshan Village that night again.

That demon was so powerful that even the demon slayers from Wangxing City were no match for it, not to mention the town's policemen.

If this girl is really a demon, it would be useless to call those demon slayers. Instead, they might scare the snake and harm her cousin's family.

What's more, those demon slayers may not believe him.

After all, he had no evidence, and the girl should have been examined before.

Therefore, he must not act rashly for the time being.

"Meow……"

At this time, the little black cat Hei Xiu jumped on the bed and wanted to get into his quilt.

Su Zhaoer quickly picked him up and coaxed: "Hey, Brother Afeng is sick. Don't disturb his rest."

Hei Xiu struggled in her arms, jumped to the ground, and ran out of the room.

Song Wan'er's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Cousin, Sister Zhao'er, is it convenient for Wan'er to come in?"

Su Zhaoer stood up and went over to open the door. He frowned and said, "Brother Afeng's forehead is so hot."

Song Wan'er came in with a bowl of fragrant chicken soup and placed it on the chair beside the bed. She comforted her softly: "Sister Zhao'er, it's okay. The doctor also said that my cousin has taken medicine and will be fine after a few days of rest." Okay. This is the chicken soup that Wan'er made for my cousin with medicinal herbs. Sister Zhao'er, hurry up and feed it to your cousin while it's still hot."

Su Zhaoer hurriedly walked to the bed, picked it up carefully, sniffed it with her little nose, and her eyes lit up: "It smells so good!"

Then she swallowed, took a spoonful, put it to her mouth, and said, "I'll try to see if it's hot first."

Song Wan'er smiled and said, "If sister Zhao'er wants to drink, there's still some in the kitchen."

Su Zhao'er was a little embarrassed, and quickly took a spoonful and put it to Luo Qingfeng's mouth, saying: "Brother Afeng, it's not hot, drink it quickly. After the illness is cured, we can get married."

Luo Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth and drank.

Su Zhaoer immediately scooped up another spoonful and brought it to his mouth.

Luo Qingfeng did not refuse and quickly drank the entire bowl.

Song Wan'er took the bowl and said softly: "Sister Zhao'er, let's go out and let my cousin have a good rest."

Su Zhaoer looked worried and seemed unwilling to leave.

Luo Qingfeng suddenly said: "Zhao'er, since you have nothing to do anyway, why not go to the shop with Wan'er to learn how to make clothes. When we get married, you will have a job. We can't live here forever and cause trouble. People, we need to earn money to support ourselves in the future.”

Let’s leave first.

When Su Zhaoer heard this, he immediately said with a happy face: "Yeah, yeah, we will live together as two people from now on. When the time comes, Zhao'er will go out to make money, and Brother Afeng will study at home and take the No. [-] exam, hehe."

Luo Qingfeng glanced at her.

After Su Zhaoer finished speaking, he went over and took Song Wan'er's hand, with a flattering expression on his face: "Sister Wan'er, can I go to your shop to study?"

Song Wan'er smiled and said, "Of course."

The two told Luo Qingfeng to have a good rest, then held hands and left.

Luo Qingfeng looked at the two people walking away outside the window, thinking about what the girl just said, and her heart was slightly shaken.

But soon, he remembered the nightingale's words that night and the records in the book.

"Demons disguise themselves to pursue their own goals, even becoming indistinguishable from humans, and many of them will never be exposed in their lifetime..."

He had to find out about this matter.

It is said that in addition to his bride, there were four other villagers who escaped from Linshan Village that night.

He decided to go find them today and ask.Outside the window, the morning sun rises slowly.

Luo Qingfeng lay there for a while, then got up and slipped out of the back door.

He first went to the dilapidated Guanyin Temple.

Before he even got close, he saw two detectives guarding there from a distance with solemn expressions.

The doorway was blocked by two wooden boards.

There seemed to be figures walking back and forth in the temple.

"It seems that the body from last night has been found."

Luo Qingfeng didn't dare to stay here. Just when he was about to turn around and leave, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind, covered his mouth, and dragged him into the alley next to him with a "whoosh" sound!

Luo Qingfeng was shocked. His arms were bound and he couldn't use his strength. Just when he was about to bite hard with his teeth, a voice that exhaled suddenly came from his ear: "No, don't bite, it's dirty there... Just now Touched a dead person.”

Luo Qingfeng was startled and stopped struggling.

Nightingale pressed him against the wall in the corner of the alley, staring at him carefully with a pair of watery eyes twinkling.

Luo Qingfeng had a look of shock on her face and said, "Ye, Sister Nightingale, is there something wrong?"

Nightingale raised her eyebrows: "What do you think?"

Luo Qingfeng's heartbeat quickened and he said, "Can you please stop making surprise attacks in the future? It will scare people to death."

This happened both times they met, and he was really frightened.

Nightingale said seriously: "You weren't scared to death either."

Luo Qingfeng was speechless.

Nightingale stared at him with burning eyes and said, "Tell me honestly, what were you doing just now?"

Luo Qingfeng tried his best to stay calm: "Shopping."

Nightingale snorted coldly: "But you were looking at the Guanyin Temple just now."

Luo Qingfeng did not deny it: "I was watching those two detectives because I had something to see them."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"What happened to the villagers in Linshan Village."

Luo Qingfeng answered without any pause.

Nightingale was slightly startled when she heard this, then let go of him, stared at him for a while, and said, "What do you want to ask?"

Luo Qingfeng said: "It was the two of them who helped me send the bride to the Song family. I heard that there were four other villagers alive. I wanted to know the specific circumstances of the massacre in Linshan Village at that time, so I wanted to ask them .”

Nightingale narrowed her eyes: "Why don't you just ask your bride?"

Luo Qingfeng sighed: "Her mother was also killed, and I dare not mention the Linshan Village incident in front of her."

Nightingale asked again: "Then why do you want to know these things?"

Luo Qingfeng looked at her and did not avoid it: "Because I also saw a demon that night. Once people know new things, they will definitely be curious. Besides, I grew up in Linshan Village, and those who were Those who were massacred were all my fellow villagers, so I naturally want to know the details of this matter."

Nightingale stared at him for a while, then Fang nodded: "This explanation is reasonable."

Then he added: "But the detectives don't know much about the specific situation. Because the people who interrogated the villagers and your bride at that time were people from Wangxing City. This matter is confidential, and even we know it. limited."

Luo Qingfeng said: "Then do you know where the other four villagers have gone? I want to see them, after all, they are my fellow villagers."

Nightingale said: "Apart from your bride, I only know that there is one villager in the town. The others should have left."

"Do you know where that villager lives?"

Luo Qingfeng asked.

Nightingale glanced at him again, turned around and walked ahead.

"I was also thinking of going to the villager to ask about the situation."

Luo Qingfeng quickly followed behind.

"A person died at the Guanyin Temple last night. He was a villager from Linshan Village. He died miserably. He should have been killed by a demon. He was the one who fled to the town to report the case and ended up going crazy. Unexpectedly, yesterday Wan was actually killed."

"It's very strange. Why would the devil kill a madman? It would not be right if he killed someone to silence him, because it would be too late. The villager had already said everything he needed to say."

"Also, hasn't the demon in Linshan Village been killed by the knight you mentioned? Is there another one?"

"Or maybe it's another demon, just someone who accidentally killed someone?"

"There are a lot of weird things about this matter. Let's ask the villager first to see if he knows something."

While walking on the road, Nightingale raised many questions of her own.

Luo Qingfeng hesitated for a long time, but still did not dare to speak out his experiences and speculations.

After all, it's just suspicion without any evidence.

Besides, after encountering the demon in Linshan Village that night, he didn't believe these demon slayers either.

If he were really alerted by that time, and these demon slayers were not very capable and would not try their best to protect him, it would not only be him who would be unlucky, but his cousin's family would also be harmed.

Therefore, he must be cautious.

"There is an empty house in this alley, which belongs to his relatives. He is temporarily living in it."

Nightingale led him into an alley.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the door of a household, the two suddenly smelled a strong smell of blood.

"not good!"

Nightingale's expression changed, she pulled out the short knife from her waist with a clang, and rushed in through the door!

Luo Qingfeng paused, stopped at the door, and looked inside.
