Lin Mu, who had turned into lightning, shuttled through the streets at an extremely fast speed, but he did not hear where the strange drumbeat came from.
The spellcaster was a person who was good at hiding himself. It was obvious that he had used a strange spell to make the drum sound untraceable and escaped Lin Mu's investigation.
However, he was certain that if he wanted to control Great-Grandfather Ren, he would have to beat the drum within a certain range to release the spell.
As long as he showed up again, Lin Mu would be able to turn into lightning and drag him out at an extremely fast speed.
Lin Mu didn't chase them far.
Instead, he returned to the vicinity of the Ren residence to prevent Old Master Ren from turning into a jumping zombie and attacking the Ren father and daughter.
Old Master Ren, who had lost control, did not appear in the Ren residence again that night. Old Master Ren, who was supposed to be sucked dry by zombies tonight, survived.
On the other side of the town, two squires who had just finished drinking wine had just walked out of the Happy Red Courtyard. One of them even said that he would go to his house to drink more.
Who would have thought that an uninvited guest would come to the house?
The two muddle-headed good friends saw a man dressed in the style of the Qing Dynasty officials suddenly come to their house and stood upright. They thought that the Qing Dynasty had not fallen yet and were about to kneel down and shout auspicious. In the next second, this "official" grabbed their throats.
The sharp fingers pierced into their necks. The two of them still wanted to struggle, but they could not move at all. Only then did they know that the figure in front of them was not a human, but a zombie.
The two people who were tightly strangled tried their best to scream, but they could not make a single sound. No matter how they kicked and kicked, their dry arms did not loosen at all. As their struggling slowed down, Old Master Ren slowly opened his mouth.
Blood gushed out from the pierced throat. Great-Grandfather Ren grabbed the other party and sucked greedily. A trace of satisfaction appeared in his scarlet eyes.
……
The next day, the gong sounded loudly in the downtown area. The person who struck the gong said something,"Master Huang and Master Li died tragically at home!"”
Seeing his master's tragic death, Master Huang's butler immediately invited Lin Mu and Ninth Uncle.
Since someone died in the town, the security captain, Ah Wei, naturally brought his men to investigate the case.
Outside, there were many onlookers, and they were blocked by Ah Wei's subordinates.
Ah Wei lifted the white cloth and saw a few bloody holes in his throat. His eyes almost popped out of his hideous face. Ah Wei hurriedly covered himself with the white cloth and stood up.
Ninth Uncle squatted at the side and carefully looked at the wound on the other corpse. He soon knew what had happened.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't move!" Ah Wei saw Ninth Uncle squatting at the side and flipping the corpse, so he quickly stopped him.
"Quickly return to the mortuary to see if Old Master Ren's corpse is still there.”
Ninth Uncle stood up and whispered to his two disciples.
A squire at the side asked,"Young Master Wei, what weapon did Old Master Ren use to kill him?”
"Of course he was shot to death." Ah Wei said firmly, his hand still stuck to the holster hanging at his waist.
"Every shot hit the neck?" Ninth Uncle questioned.
Ah Wei quickly corrected himself." The murderer is a martial arts master. He's also good at throwing darts. He released a…released a nine-string gold coin dart to kill Master Huang and Master Ren."”
"Where are the darts?" Ninth Uncle asked again.
"Hey, don't interfere with my case. You're smart. Tell me, how did they die? Tell me?" Ah Wei was furious. This Ninth Uncle actually went against him several times.
"I said, it seems like he was stabbed to death by fingernails.”Ninth Uncle said as he imitated the zombie's killing moves.
Ah Wei seemed to have caught some incredible clues. He grabbed Ninth Uncle's hand and said proudly,"Hey, if you want your fingernails to be stuck to death, that means that only people with very long fingernails can do it.”
"Fellow villagers, which one of you has fingers longer than his?”
Upon hearing this, the few squires at the side looked at their fingernails that had not been trimmed for months and hurriedly put them behind them.
"You can't accuse a good person." Ninth Uncle said as he looked at the corpse.
"Hey, I, Captain Ah Wei, won't accuse innocent people. You have the longest fingernails in the village, so you're the most suspicious. Arrest him."
When Lin Mu heard the news at home, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.”
"Senior Brother, oh Senior Brother, I've already protected Old Master Ren from death. I didn't expect you to still be unable to escape this prison disaster.”
Ah Wei put his hands on his waist and said to the people around him in a rather arrogant manner. He inadvertently glanced at Lin Mu, who was drinking tea. Although he was a little afraid, he felt that under such circumstances, the other party would definitely not dare to attack him. Moreover, he had so many men with guns.
Little did he know that Lin Mu didn't even look at him.
"Fellow villagers, I have already caught the suspect. I will definitely avenge Old Master Huang and Old Master Li. Come, bring the corpse and the suspect back.”
At this moment, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai ran in, panting.
" Master... coffin..." he said while panting heavily.
" The corpse…is gone…" Wen Cai could barely breathe as he spoke.
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai saw that their master had been captured. The two of them could not care less and wanted to attack, but they were stopped by Ninth Uncle.
"Captain, can I have a word with my disciple?”Ninth Uncle glanced at Ah Wei and said.
"If you have any will, hurry up and tell me. Don't blame me for being heartless.”Ah Wei answered in a serious manner.
"Have you looked around?" Ninth Uncle asked his two disciples.
"Have you searched?" Qiu Sheng waved his hand and said.
"Then tonight will be terrible."
"I know. Master is going to jail tonight.”
"Jail is a small matter, but the corpse transformation of these two masters is a big matter. Qiusheng, bring some yellow talismans, chicken blood, and ink pots to the yamen tonight to find me…Oh right, and glutinous rice.”
"Got it."
" Go and inform Youngest Uncle that he'll be troubling you to help guard the Ren family tonight. I'm afraid Old Master Ren will appear again. Old Master Ren is probably at the 'jumping corpse' level. Tell Youngest Uncle to be more careful.”
"Yes."
Then, Ninth Uncle and the two corpses were brought back to the yamen by Ah Wei and the others.
