The lanterns are on.

Wenxian Road is bustling and lively.

Chuzheng walked slowly back to Huangquan Road.

"Girl."

The uncle from the shop next door was standing at the door of his shop. When he saw her coming back, he called her.

The shop was not open, and most of the uncle's body was hidden in the darkness. The cigarette in his hand flickered and went out, and his voice was hoarse and a bit unpleasant.

"problem occurs."

Chuzheng turned around and walked up the steps. The uncle turned sideways and let her in.

There were already several people in the store.

There was solemnity in the air.

Chu Zheng came in, and the young man wearing a clown hat who was sitting at the main seat stood up and sat next to him.

Chuzheng pulled up the chair and sat down, speaking indifferently: "What's the matter?"

The boy in the clown hat moved his chin to the corner of the store and said, "A person died."

Chuzheng turned sideways to look.

There was a body covered with black cloth in the corner.

Chuzheng put her fingertips on the edge of the table and tapped lightly: "How did you die?"

The uncle smoked a cigarette: "There are no wounds or diseases on the body. It should be a sojourn. But what is strange is that we did not find any fluctuations in spiritual values."

Chuzheng glanced at the people present, stood up calmly, walked to the body, and lifted off the black cloth.

Chuzheng stretched out her hand: "Knife."

The boy in the clown hat went to get a knife and handed it to Chu Zheng.

Chuzheng lifted up the corpse's upper body clothes and cut open the corpse's belly with a knife.

There was no scene of blood flowing across the body. There was no blood at all in this corpse.

Not only that, the organs that should have been there were no longer there, and his stomach was empty, like a human-shaped mold.

"Sure enough, he was taken in as a sojourn..."

Some unknown creatures inhabit the human body and use humans as food.

The blood and internal organs of the human body will be swallowed by unknown creatures. When there is nothing left, the unknown creatures will abandon this body and look for the next one.

Chuzheng frowned slightly, holding the corpse's arm and looking at it for a moment.

Chuzheng pushed back the black cloth, stood up, took the handkerchief and wiped her hands, then sat back down on the chair slowly: "Whose family does this belong to?"

"From Lao Ya's family."

"Where are the people?"

"I'll call him right away."

-

Lao Ya is a middle-aged man who looks a bit honest.

Being brought in by the uncle, he was obviously a little cautious.

Chuzheng lowered her eyes and said nothing.

The uncle patted Lao Ya on the shoulder: "Tell me the identity of the deceased."

Lao Ya rubbed his hands: "Yes, he is a new helper hired two months ago. There is no problem with his identity. I have checked..."

Someone questioned: "He was a sojourn, and you didn't notice?"

Lao Ya was stunned and shook his head: "No...no."

Chuzheng raised her eyes, looked at Lao Ya, and said in a calm tone: "If there is anything unusual, tell me."

"No... nothing unusual..." Lao Ya recalled what happened in the past two months: "He doesn't like to talk much, but he is diligent. He has not made any mistakes in the past two months."

Lao Ya couldn't give any more clues.

Chuzheng asked him to go back first.

The uncle lit another cigarette: "Girl, what are you talking about..."

Chuzheng was silent.

The others discussed in low voices.

"Recently, I always feel that something is not right about asking for immortality."

"I just said, we can't recruit people from outside. Something will happen now."

"It has been living here for so long without being discovered. How did it do that?"

"Is it some other ability?"

Other... abilities.

When Chuzheng thought of X346, the same thing happened...

Chuzheng tapped her fingertips on the back of the chair: "How much do you know about this matter?"

"Lao Ya found out that someone was dead and informed me immediately. We are the only ones who know about it for the time being," the uncle said.

Chu Zheng nodded: "Dispose of the corpse and check all the outsiders on the Immortal Road."

The rest of the people looked at each other and left one after another.

Chuzheng didn't leave, just sitting in the uncle's shop.

The noise outside gradually died down.

In the quiet night, there was no sound.

The next day.

The boy in the clown hat came back first and threw a notebook on the table: "We found two sojourners, but..."

The young man placed the small transparent porcelain bottle in front of Chu Zheng, and there was light shining inside.

"They are all dead, only their souls are captured."

Spiritual values ​​are used to identify unknown creatures.

Soul is a kind of energy condensed by unknown creatures after death.

Why is it called that? Probably because like the human soul after death, it was named like this just for the sake of being named.

Chuzheng held a small porcelain bottle in her hand.

"Get in!"

A woman's voice sounded from outside, and then a man was pushed in. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he fell to the ground in a mess.

The boy in the clown hat raised his eyebrows: "Sister Su Yao, did you catch anyone alive?"

The woman who came in was wearing a leather jacket and leather trousers, holding a leather whip in her hand, and had burgundy curly hair, looking like a royal sister.

She flipped up her hair and said, "Your sister is not a vegetarian."

Chuzheng lowered her eyes and looked at the people on the ground.

"What have you been doing during this time?"

The expressions of Su Yao and the boy in the clown hat changed slightly.

It was indeed their dereliction of duty to have so many unknown creatures mixed into Wenxian Road.

-

Where is the Fairy Road?

In Wenxian Road, except for the ordinary people who were recruited to work, everyone else dealt with unknown creatures.

Wenxian Road is older than the official existence of the Unknown Creatures Management Office.

But these people were not born to seek the path to immortality.

But one day, he suddenly saw unknown creatures, which was called spiritual awakening by those who asked about the path to immortality.

Then……

Chuzheng will appear.

If they agree to live on Wenxian Road, they will be given a contract.

If they don't agree, they lose the ability to see unknown creatures and their memory of it.

The contract period is usually fifty to one hundred years.

After the time is up, the contract can be terminated.

To terminate the contract or return to a normal life, of course, you will lose all memories about Wenxian Road, unknown creatures, and so on.

Either stay on Wenxian Road, guard those memories, and spend your remaining years here.

And about Chu Zheng who found them.

No one knows her origins.

It is said that some old people on Xianlu who have terminated their contracts and stayed here said that she was there a long time ago.

It's always been like this, it hasn't changed.

They only knew her name, and she had a bad temper. When there was no business, she had no expression on her face, but she had no airs - just look at the way those old people in Wenxian Road yelled at her.

-

The uncle also brought someone back.

What the rest brought back were souls.

A dozen bottles were lined up on the table.

Chuzheng crossed her chest with one hand and supported her chin with the other, looking at the porcelain bottle on the table.

"What's the purpose of coming to Wenxian Road?"

Su Yao waved his whip and asked questions from the side.

The two people who were caught refused to speak.

Chuzheng grabbed Su Yao who wanted to be violent.

"We have everything..."

The one who spoke watched helplessly as his companions turned into powder.

Bits and pieces of soul floated out.

Chuzheng raised her hand, and the soul automatically gathered in her palm. She took out a small porcelain bottle, filled it, and placed it on the edge of the table.

The girl slowly looked back, her cold eyes falling on him.
