Painted Skin: Girl Monster Hunter

The checkpoint guards at the gate of the city were useless, and several guards were pushed far away by the fleeing refugees. Given the current situation in Jimo City, there was no way to increase the number of manpower.

What happened? It's only been half a year since they left Jimo, and a bustling city has become what it is now.

Seeing that they had no choice but to climb over the wall with lightness kungfu, the three of them saw that the city wall was very high, so Ruyi pulled the young master to climb over it first, and Ning Wu followed behind.

Standing on the city wall and overlooking Jimo City from a bird's eye view, all three of them felt a chill in their hearts.

The four markets in the east, west, north, and south are already empty alleys, the gates of every house are closed, and the streets are extremely desolate.

Occasionally, someone opened the door and walked towards the gate of the city.

The post station has been completely closed, and the post manager in charge of the post station has long abused his power, selling and giving away the horses in the post station, while he chose a good horse and fled.

The young master couldn't help but worry when he saw his hometown look like this.

Ning Wu hurriedly grabbed his hand and said: "Don't worry, the Chu Mansion is located in a slightly remote place, maybe it can avoid this disaster. If Jimo's strange disease is incurable, I will take my uncle and aunt to Xiyang."

When we arrived at the Chu Mansion, it was already dark. There were no lights on the streets, no smoke from cooking houses, only wild dogs howling, birds and crows hoarse, and the whole Jimo city fell into a kind of quiet panic.

The gate of the Chu Mansion was closed tightly, and none of the long strings of red lanterns on the outer wall were lit.Chu Ao knocked on the door knocker a few times, but no one responded. His heart fluctuated like a boat in the sea.

The three of them climbed over the wall again, but saw that most of the rooms in the Chu Mansion were dark.

The only ray of light came from the yard where grandma lived.

The three hurried over.

As soon as I entered, my eyes were white...

With white curtains and white paper flowers, several people cried miserably with their backs to the three of them. They were dressed in linen and mourning, and threw paper money around a brazier.

"Grandma... let's go..." The maid in the middle cried the most excitedly, sniffling her nose, almost out of breath.

"Did grandma pass away!" The young master exclaimed.

The three people in sackcloth and filial piety turned their faces, seeing that it was the young master and the others, they were all taken aback.

These three Ruyi are still very familiar, the one who cries the most is Wan'er who always confronts her, and the other two are the sixth and the seventh who treat her like a younger sister.

"Master! Why are you back!" Wan'er said in surprise.

"It's a long story! How are my parents? How did grandma go? Where are those aunts?" The young master's voice has not fully healed, and he can barely speak, but his pronunciation is still hoarse and deep.

As soon as he asked these questions, Wan'er cried even harder.

The sixth and the seventh also sighed beside them.

Things have come to this point, no matter how stupid a person is, he knows that his parents are gone.

The young master staggered and almost stopped, but thanks to Ningwu and Ruyi supporting him, he barely fell down.

He stood there in a daze for a long time, then rolled his eyes, and passed out.

It was half an hour after he was rescued. When the young master opened his eyes, he was at a loss for a moment, and then saw the piece of plain onyx. After realizing that all these were irreversible facts, he burst into tears in grief.

As the saying goes, a man does not shed tears lightly, but after such a big event, the feeling of losing a loved one is not something that can be resolved by just a few tears.

This sad emotion spread quickly, Ruyi wanted to comfort her brother-in-law, but the words turned into sobs when they reached her lips.

Ning Wu is not familiar with the two elders of the Chu family, and they only met once, so to put it bluntly, they don't have any deep feelings.However, seeing Chu Ao so heartbroken, she couldn't help feeling distressed.

The young master knelt in grandma's mourning hall, beating his chest and yelling: "My child is not filial, when you left, I didn't come back to see you for the last time...I..."

During the period, because of being too emotional, I passed out several times.

Ruyi and the others pinched him again and poured soup and medicine to wake him up.

After tossing, Master Midnight's mood finally eased a little.

After careful questioning, I found out that now there are only three of them left in the huge Chu family, and the others died of illness and fled.

Wan'er grew up in the mansion since she was a child, the Chu mansion is equal to her home, even if she dies, she still wants to die in the mansion.

As for the sixth and the seventh, there were only three sisters, and the elder sister had gone first, and the remaining two really didn't want to go back to their hometown, so they stayed in the Chu Mansion to look after the house.

Ruyi was also full of sadness. She looked around, but she couldn't see her grandma's body, so she asked, "When did grandma leave? Are you keeping vigil for her? Why can't you see the dead body?"
