"There's a murder in the Ren residence!"
The sound of a gong was heard in the town. Accompanied by the sound of the gong, a person shouted that there was a murder in the Ren residence. Soon, the news spread throughout the town.
As one of the most prominent families in the town, the Ren residence was naturally well-known in the town. When they heard that a murder had happened in the Ren residence, everyone gathered over curiously.
All the older generation of the town had come. The mayor, the squire, and the people from the yamen were all gathered here.
In the living room, a stretcher was covered with a white cloth. Ren Fa was chatting with the mayor. Both of their faces were a little heavy. The squires and elders beside them were also preoccupied.
What should they do? Zombies had appeared in the town, and the town's security captain had been bitten to death by zombies!
Lin Yi was comforting Ren Tingting in the corner. When she saw Ah Wei's corpse, Ren Tingting was frightened. Her small face was pale as she followed Lin Yi without leaving. She did not dare to go into the house to rest for a while.
"Old Master Ren, what should we do now? The whereabouts of the zombies are unknown. If the people in our town find out, wouldn't it be a storm?”the mayor said worriedly.
Ren Fen Zai had already recovered and regained his usual shrewdness. Although his expression was solemn, he did not panic.
"I think it's better to tell everyone about this. With Ninth Uncle around, the zombies will definitely be eliminated.”Ren Fa said.
Upon hearing Ninth Uncle, the mayor's eyes lit up." That's right. How could I forget about Ninth Uncle? Where is Ninth Uncle?" Is Ninth Uncle here yet?"
"Coming, coming!"
It was noisy at the door. The crowd was separated by the security team. Ninth Uncle walked in front, followed by Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai.
"Ninth Uncle!"
"Ninth Uncle!"
……
The mayor, the squire, and Old Master Ren all came forward and greeted him respectfully.
"Everyone, let me see the corpse first.”Ninth Uncle returned the greeting and walked straight to the corpse on the ground.
He lifted the cloth and saw Ah Wei's pale and bloodless face. His face was as pale as paper because his blood had been sucked dry. Looking at Ah Wei's ferocious expression, one could imagine what kind of horror he had experienced last night. The blood flowing from his seven orifices showed that Ah Wei had died an unusual death.
"Ninth Uncle, how was it? Old Master Ren said that the captain was bitten to death by a zombie.”The mayor was beside Ninth Uncle. Seeing Ninth Uncle's solemn expression, he quickly asked in a low voice.
Uncle Nine nodded." He was indeed bitten to death by a zombie. The captain's pale body is because all the blood in his body has been sucked dry. Look, this is the bite of a zombie.”As Ninth Uncle spoke, he turned Ah Wei's head and looked left and right. Sure enough, he saw two small holes on the left side of Ah Wei's neck.
There were still black blood stains in the small holes, which meant that Ah Wei's body was already filled with corpse poison. If nothing unexpected happened, Ah Wei would definitely turn into a corpse at midnight tonight.
Midnight was from midnight to two in the morning. During this period of time, the Yin Qi increased and the Yang Qi reached its lowest point. Tonight was the night of the full moon, and the moonlight was cold. This cold moonlight had indescribable benefits for zombies and ghosts. In addition, the corpse poison in Ah Wei's body was strong, and he would probably turn into a black corpse after the corpse transformation.
"What should we do? Ninth Uncle, you have to think of a way!" The mayor was trembling in fear.
In this feudal society, ghosts and zombies really existed. How could ordinary people not be afraid? The town was only so big. Who knew whose house the zombies would run to at night!
"Mayor, don't worry. I, Lin Jiu, will not shirk the responsibility of catching ghosts and exterminating zombies. However, I still have to ask the mayor for help.”Ninth Uncle nodded.
"Alright, alright, alright. Don't worry, Ninth Uncle. I'll definitely cooperate fully.”The mayor nodded and agreed.
"Mayor, Ah Wei is my nephew. As the captain of the security team, I am very sad to be the first to be killed. At the same time, the security team has also lost its leader, so I want to elect a new captain.”Ren Fa spoke at this moment.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted the attention of everyone in the room.
To elect a new security captain!
If this kind of thing happened on a normal day, the people in the room would probably start quarreling.
Although it was not a lucrative job to be the security captain, he could still get a lot of benefits if he arranged it for his nephew.
However, it was a troubled time now. The trouble they encountered was not ordinary bandits, but the legendary zombies.
! Ah Wei's tragic death had yet to dissipate in their minds. They did not want their nephew to become like this when he just took office. It was not worth it for the position of security captain.
"Old Master Ren, who do you think is suitable?”The mayor asked again.
Old Master Ren had paid for the establishment of the security team, so the first person to be the security captain naturally became Ah Wei. Now that Ah Wei was dead, Old Master Ren had a lot of say in the position of security captain.
"I think Ninth Uncle's eldest disciple, Ah Yi, is not bad. Ah Yi is Ninth Uncle's direct disciple. He is good at martial arts and is very capable. He is not afraid of zombies. Last night, Ah Yi sacrificed himself to save me from the zombies. I didn't expect that after the zombies were beaten away, they actually harmed Ah Wei.”Ren Fa sighed.
He didn't expect Ah Wei to die like this, but Ren Fa didn't feel any heartache. Although this cousin respected him very much, he had ulterior motives and had his attention on Tingting. He wasn't an old fool, so he naturally knew what was going on.
Compared to Lin Yi in terms of temperament, knowledge, and morality, he was miles away.
"Ah Yi!" When the mayor heard that it was Lin Yi, he immediately remembered that the child that Ninth Uncle had picked up from the mountains had been rumored to be very evil. A baby in the mountains, let alone monsters, even those ferocious animals such as gnolls and bears did not harm Lin Yi. When Ninth Uncle brought him back, he was even happy. This incident had left a deep impression on many people.
"I think so too. Since Old Master Ren has said so, then from now on, Ninth Uncle's eldest disciple, Lin Yi, will be the chief of the yamen's security team. If there's anything you need, feel free to ask the yamen.”With a word from the mayor, this matter took effect.
Lin Yi, who was standing not far away from Ninth Uncle and accompanying Ren Tingting, did not say a word. He directly replaced Ah Wei's position and became the captain of the yamen's security team!
"Wow, I'm so envious. Eldest Senior Brother has been promoted.”Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng found Lin Yi's location. They looked at Ren Tingting, who was leaning against Lin Yi, and felt envious in their hearts.
Eldest Senior Brother was younger than them, but he was very capable. Now, he had a beautiful woman in his heart, and his future father-in-law had even helped him find such a prestigious job. It was simply enviable. However, the two of them were not jealous. The relationship between the senior and junior brothers was so good. Although they usually quarreled, it was true that the relationship between the three of them was as close as brothers.
