Chapter 134 Blood Rain [asking for monthly ticket]

Huang Yiyi first glanced at his own wrist, then glanced at Liu Bai and Situ Hong's wrists, and then said:

"You mean, regardless of whether or not someone was caught in the bloody rain, there will be this mark on their wrist?"

"Correct!"

Situ Hong nodded vigorously.

Liu Bai also asked the grass in his mind whether it knew this thing, but the grass said it didn't know.

"Sister Hong doesn't know either?"

Since there are outsiders around, Liu Bai just changed his name?

Sister Hong suddenly lit the life fire, and in an instant, Liu Bai felt as if the room was on fire, with a scorching heat rushing into his nose.

This life fire... isn't it a little too strong?

Is Sister Hong really a Yin-yang spirit?

It’s not like Liu Bai hasn’t seen Situ Busheng light a fire before, but compared to the current Sister Hong, the gap is a bit too big.

Liu Bai was surprised, and Situ Hong was also surprised.

After Sister Hong lit the life fire, she covered her right wrist with her left hand. Suddenly, her entire right arm was on fire.

"Sister Hong!"

Liu Bai couldn't help but shout.

Sister Hong shook her head, and after a while she let go. The life fire went out on its own, but even so, the blood drop mark on her wrist still existed.

"This is not a contamination caused by evil spirits." Sister Hong concluded. She then turned to look at Liu Bai and said with a slightly heavy face, "This is a serious matter. I'd better go back and look for it to see what's going on."

Even if she knew that the funeral temple wanted to curse her, she was not so serious.

The funeral temple curse couldn't kill her, but the sudden blood rain and the extra blood drops on her hands were something strange.

"Okay, Sister Hong, be careful." Liu Bai warned: "I suspect... this matter is probably related to the big event planned by the Funeral Temple. Sister Hong, you can look into this aspect."

"Okay, I will."

Sister Hong said, then turned around and looked around, "Why don't you move in with me?"

"No, it's not far away." Liu Bai refused. He was not that scared. Besides, compared to living anywhere else, he preferred living in the shop.

"also."

Sister Hong was not as shy as Huang Yiyi, and was very decisive. However, before she left, she turned around and told Situ Hong, "Take good care of the young master."

"Yes."

Sister Hong left, and Liu Bai also came out of the house. The body of the third ancestor of the Meng family had been cleaned up, without even a trace of blood left.

Only the lingering smell of blood in the air proved that they had been there.

Oh no, there's a butcher's shop next door, so there's always the smell of blood, but the smell of human blood and pig blood seem to be somewhat different.

As soon as Liu Bai walked out of the door, he heard the sound of "bang bang bang" which sounded like chopping meat and bones.

He turned around and saw that Master Wu's shop was already open.

"Master Wu, are you slaughtering the pig?" Liu Bai shouted.

Master Wu raised his head. His apron was covered in blood. In his hand was a large bone-chopping knife. At the moment, his smile seemed to be forced.

The scene is... a little weird.

"It's freshly killed, still fresh. Would you like to have a piece, Shopkeeper Xiao Liu?"

"No." Liu Bai had no appetite, and then asked: "Master Wu, has the mark of the blood drop appeared on your hand?"

"Oh, this one, yes." Master Wu raised his head to take a look, then wiped it on his apron. The pig blood stain instantly became blurry, and he didn't care much about it.

"Master Wu, aren't you afraid that this is a fatal thing?" Liu Baiduo asked.

"Scared?" Master Wu grinned. "Shopkeeper Xiao Liu is obviously from a wealthy family. You should ask him if the pig will be scared when you kill it."

"We have to live our lives despite being afraid. We might as well kill the pig."

As he spoke, Master Wu chopped off another leg bone with his knife, looking very ferocious.

Liu Bai gave him a thumbs up, then turned and went to Ning Yi's shop.

It was already afternoon, and Ning Yi had naturally returned. He had a pale face and was wrapped in a black robe, still basking in the sun at the door.

But no matter how much he is exposed to the sun, his skin remains white and never gets tanned.

"Shopkeeper Xiao Liu wants to ask about this blood drop? They all have it. I just went out to ask around at noon. No matter if they were caught in the rain or not, as long as they were from the Blood Food City, they all had this thing on their hands..."

"No, this thing also appeared in the hands of some people coming from other towns."

Before Liu Bai could ask, Ning Yi had already given the answer.

"You don't know anything about the situation?" Liu Bai asked.

Sister Hong may represent the ghost-walking family in this Blood Food City, but the idle ghost-walking people like Ning Yi have also been in this Blood Food City for a long time.

And because of the formation of gangs, people like Ning Yi, a corpse retriever, and Monkey, a sheep-stealer, may know even more.

But at the end, Ning Yi still shook his head, "I don't know, our ancestors never recorded anything related to this blood rain and the mark."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but raise his hand to take a look. Drops of scarlet blood seemed to be floating on the tattoo on his wrist, very obvious.

He continued, "Now many people have gone to the City Lord's Mansion to inquire about the news. I guess the City Lord's Mansion should be able to give an explanation."

"Hopefully."

I didn't get any useful information, and as for the other people on the street... they could only say "It's all over", and couldn't say anything useful. Finally, Liu Bai returned to the shop, and felt that something was wrong, so he turned around and said to Situ Hong:

"Go contact Ms. Situ and ask her to check the blood rain and blood drops."

"Well... ask her if she has any news about her left hand and right foot."

After learning about the appearance of the left hand and right foot from the evil spirits in the old woods, Liu Bai had asked Situ Nvzhan to help investigate.

But until now, there is still no result.

"it is good."

Situ Hong nodded slightly, "Then you, sir..."

"Don't worry about me, I have to go out for a while."

"it is good."

Liu Bai didn't say anything, so Situ Hong didn't ask either. She packed up, changed her clothes, and went out.

Liu Bai waited for a moment, then closed the door and left.

He still left the city from the north gate, and when he came to a deserted and quiet place, he turned into a big ghost and left.

The evil spirits in the old woods are still somewhat useful.

When he sent out two or three evil spirits to patrol the mountains and hills, he did not look for those evil creatures, but specifically targeted those elderly mountain spirits.

Older mountain spirits are mostly spirits of plants and trees.

Liu Bai had let this thing go when he killed the mountain spirit before. It’s not that he was kind-hearted and respected the elderly and loved the young.

It’s because these old woods are hard to chew.

After searching in the mountains for a day and a night, I actually got some information from him.

For example, he learned from an old locust tree in Xiong Xiazi Ridge that during his grandfather's generation, a saying was circulated in this Blood Food City.

I don't know who spread it, it was just too long ago, so long ago that he can't remember it clearly.

The general meaning is that when it rains blood in the Blood Food City, the evil spirits in the mountains will come down.

I don’t know why exactly.

After listening to this, Liu Bai also thought about it carefully.

What can the evil spirit do when it comes down the mountain?
Eat people!
So, when it rains blood, it means that evil spirits are coming down the mountain to eat people?
Liu Bai didn't show any reaction, but the old goat became restless after hearing the news.

Later, this news was confirmed by another old fir tree, because the ancestor of that old fir tree also passed down similar words.

There is another piece of news that I heard from a goblin, which is quite novel.

It first asked Liu Bai whether the bloody rain only fell inside the city or outside the city as well.

Liu Bai said that it was only inside the city that this mark fell, but people outside the city who were not exposed to the rain also had this mark on their hands.

Then the goblin said that one of his ancestors had been the City God.

It is said that as long as there is a small rain in the city, the City God has this ability.

So, the bloody rain in the city might be related to the City God?

Liu Bai thought again of the old mountain god who had gotten into trouble before, and then how Master Ma was trapped by the new mountain god, and the series of events when he went to the City God Temple to meet the City God.

Could it be that the line about the City God...can actually be connected to the trouble at the funeral temple in the city?
In this way, these two lines can converge into one place.

That was this sudden bloody rain!
In addition to this news, Liu Bai also asked about the matter of the left hand and right foot.

But they said that the evil spirits in the old woods had not been seen again. Ever since they killed the ancestor of the Situ family and returned to the Blood Food City from Xian Mountain, the two strange men had never entered the old woods again.

What does this mean?
These two bastards are most likely still in this Blood Food City, and I don't know where they are hiding to cause trouble.

At one time, Liu Bai, who had received a lot of information, returned to the city in the afternoon of the second day.

He was thinking of visiting the City God Temple in the city.

Let’s see if the City God really knows something. If we go there in person... it will probably be like before, we won’t even be able to see his real self.

So Liu Bai decided to let the City God go to hell!
But just as he arrived at the city gate, he saw Gongsun Shi waiting there with a big rooster on his shoulder, and he looked very anxious.

"Little brother, why did you come back just now?"

Gongsun Shi jumped onto the carriage.

The carriage Liu Bai was sitting in at this moment was the carriage that had originally belonged to the head of the Situ family, but he had removed the Situ family badge from it, so it was not so conspicuous.

The reason for using this is that this carriage knows the way and does not need a coachman.

"What's the matter? What big thing happened in the city?" Liu Bai asked, sticking his head out.

"That's not the case. Sister Hong asked me to wait for you here. She said that I should go to see her after picking you up."

Gongsun Shi touched the comb of the rooster on his shoulder.

Brother Ji immediately cooperated by calling out "Oh-oh-oh" a few times. After the carriage rushed through the city gate, it went straight to Baihu Street.

They even had to pass by the gate of the City God Temple. Liu Bai was sitting on the shaft of the cart. He took a glance and found that there were many people gathered in front of the City God Temple.

But no one went in because the gate of the City God Temple was closed and guarded by soldiers. Liu Bai even sensed the presence of several ghosts.

The City God...is in trouble too?
Liu Bai's mind was focused, and he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with this City God Temple? Why are there so many people here?"

"Oh, this." Gongsun Shi greeted many acquaintances and then answered:

"This morning, I heard that the statue of the City God was shedding tears of blood, and then the City Lord's Mansion sent someone over to say that the City God had to avoid the autumn and wouldn't see anyone for the next few days."
