Jiujiu casually placed the silver pieces in front of the waiter and said with a smile, "Has anything big happened in Anyuan Town recently?"
"Something big?" The waiter was startled at first, then his face revealed a terrified expression. After a while, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. With lingering fear, he moved closer to Jiujiu's ear and whispered, "Miss, I've already told you, but don't tell anyone else. 1357924? 6810gggggd”
Jiujiu nodded when she saw the serious look on the waiter's face.
After getting Jiujiu's assurance, the waiter said in a low voice, "Since you insist on asking, there's no harm in me telling you. However, this matter is quite strange. In the past few months, two people have died in our town. Moreover, when they died, their hearts were dug out. I suspect that it was the work of demons."
"Demon?" Jiujiu sneered and said with disdain, "How can there be a demon in this world? Don't tell me you're lying to swindle me?"
"Shh ~" The waiter quickly stopped Yunhuai with a nervous expression as if he had seen it with his own eyes. He shook his head and sighed, "Little sister, you haven't seen their bodies with your own eyes. Their entire bodies were soaked in blood, and they didn't even have a heart or liver."
"Oh ~" Jiujiu raised her eyebrows and a look of shock appeared on her face, as if she was frightened. Then she said faintly, "That's probably a demon."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she casually tossed the silver pieces to the waiter.
The waiter didn't expect that he would be rewarded with half a tael of silver by saying a few words. He was overjoyed and couldn't help but take a few more glances at Yunhuai. He felt that her side profile was somewhat familiar, but he didn't know where he had seen it before.
As Jiujiu ate, she picked up a piece of braised beef and fed it to Whitey. When they were full, they paid the bill and booked a room before going out for a stroll.
It was close to the end of the year, and Anyuan Town was relatively remote. The people in the town were familiar with each other, and Jiujiu was an unfamiliar face. Naturally, she attracted the attention of the people in Anyuan Town when she wandered the streets.
However, Jiujiu didn't care. She would buy a candy figurine, or go to the rouge and face powder stalls to look. Occasionally, she would buy a hairpin and play happily.
After Jiujiu walked around and around, almost everyone in Anyuan Town noticed her. Only then did she leisurely wander back to the inn.
According to the waiter's description, she had lost her heart and was covered in blood. Other than Sanniang, Jiujiu couldn't think of anyone else who could have killed her.
Jiujiu didn't say this, but Sanniang was really a fool. She thought that she wouldn't have to worry about anything after killing Yunhuai, but she didn't think that it would be so easy to take someone else's skin. How naive.
If the painted skin people didn't have any tricks up their sleeves, how could they have passed it down from generation to generation?
If Sanniang's skin didn't have fresh blood to maintain it, it wouldn't be long before it decayed or even turned into ashes. When that time came, Sanniang would become the same as Yunhuai from ten years ago, a skinless monster.
Moreover, because she harmed Yunhuai and broke the rules of the painted skin people, no one in this world would be willing to paint her skin anymore.
Thinking of Sanniang's consequences, Jiujiu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Putting Whitey on the table, Jiujiu scratched Whitey's little chin and said with a smile, "Tell me, should I help her or watch her make a fool of herself?"
Whitey ignored Jiujiu. Instead, it kept snoring because of its comfort. Jiujiu was so angry that she gave it a hard scratch before stopping.
At this time, in the three years she had spent in the Liu Manor, she looked at the mirror and saw her skin wither like a flower that had lost its moisture because of the lack of fresh blood. She could even feel the skin cracking and revealing the tender flesh underneath. Sanniang's face instantly revealed a look of horror. She turned her head to look at Liu Han, who was lying on the bed. Finally, she gritted her teeth and took out the sleeping incense she had hidden in her dressing table.
She waited until Liu Han was sound asleep before changing into a new set of clothes and walking out.
Every painted skin person's skin had their own scent on it. As Sanniang moved closer and closer to Jiujiu, Jiujiu suddenly opened her eyes and sat up on the bed. She put on her clothes, picked up the sleepy Whitey, and walked out.
When Jiujiu left, it was already close to the third watch. Following the scent of the skin, she walked over and saw Sanniang standing outside a thatched hut. She whispered a few words to the other party and then walked in.
After that, there was a strong smell of blood and painful groans. It was a pity that Sanniang had used a barrier to block it out. No one except her could hear it. Suddenly, a murderous aura came from behind her. Jiujiu quickly turned around.
She saw a green-skinned man holding a long sword walking over with a murderous look on his face. It looked like he was going to kill Sanniang.
Jiujiu blinked her eyes and took a closer look. When she smelled the strong smell of daylily on the man's body, she hurriedly came out and pulled the man's arm, forcefully dragging him to her hiding place.
Xiao Sheng had originally wanted to go out and kill demons, but he was unprepared for being dragged to the side by Jiujiu. His pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes widened as he looked at Jiujiu in shock. He seemed to have not recovered from his shock.
Jiujiu blinked. Her pair of watery almond-shaped eyes seemed to be able to speak. Her small nose was straight and perky, and her pink cherry lips were paired with her cute baby fat. She was cute and adorable, but the cinnabar mole at the corner of her eye seemed to come alive. Xiao Sheng was a little stunned when he looked at her. He seemed to be a little confused as to why Jiujiu had dragged him over.
Jiujiu reached out and pulled Xiao Sheng's arm. She put her index finger to her mouth and shushed him. Then, she whispered in Xiao Sheng's ear, "Don't go, that's a demon."
Seeing that the man's voice in the room was getting weaker and weaker, Xiao Sheng's expression slowly became anxious. He wanted to go out, but Jiujiu held him tightly. He wanted to flip Jiujiu over, but when he received Jiujiu's big eyes that seemed to be able to speak, he couldn't do anything. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and whispered, "I'm a Taoist priest. Let me go catch a demon."
Jiujiu naturally knew that Xiao Sheng was a Taoist priest and that his master was the old Taoist Lin Xiu. Xiao Sheng, who was under Lin Xiu's tutelage, was not an ordinary person. Not to mention Sanniang, who only had a cultivation of 3,000 years, even 5,000 years, he could kill her with one slash.
But Jiujiu came here to take revenge on Sanniang. If Sanniang was killed by Xiao Sheng, then what was the point of her revenge? So, she naturally couldn't let Xiao Sheng leave just like that.
Jiujiu blinked and asked Xiao Sheng innocently, "Then, big brother, do you know how to catch a demon? This demon is so powerful. It has already eaten two people in this town. "
As Jiujiu's voice fell, the sound in the room slowly dissipated. The people in the room were no longer breathing.
Xiao Sheng helplessly withdrew his sword and looked at Jiujiu, who had asked the question. He wanted to scold her, but he couldn't say a word.
