It's obviously a life skill, but you developed it into a magical skill

The streets were lively and noisy.

When the screams in the alley suddenly sounded, even the noise on the street was suppressed for a short time.

Zhou An was slightly startled.

The scream just now came from the alley he just came out of.

Some people heard the screams and were already walking towards the alley.

People are eager for excitement, and gossip is inherent in everyone.

There was a problem in the patrol area. Zhou An did not stop and walked towards the alley with a long knife on his waist.

When he came to the alley, he saw many people gathered around him and could hear their whispers.

"Isn't this Lao Wang? Why are you crying so miserably?"

"I don't know. He seems to be crying at home. Why don't you go in and take a look?"

"Who dares to go in? He is usually a sick man and has to rely on his daughter to take care of him. If he goes in, he may be infected."

…

The discussion was small at first, but gradually became louder as more people gathered.

Zhou An stood outside, coughed, and shouted: "Hurry up and handle the case, everyone else is waiting to avoid it!"

The shouts rang out, and the people nearby reacted immediately and retreated quickly.

When one commoner did this, a chain reaction immediately started. The rest of the common people saw Zhou An coming slowly wearing a policeman's uniform.

If it were in the past, it might be nothing, but now that something happened in the alley and police officers came over, the people were afraid that the matter would stick to them.

This group of people quickly left the alley as if they were avoiding the god of plague.

In an instant, the entire alley was empty, with no one left.

At the entrance of the alley, there were still a few brave ones who pulled at the wall, stuck their heads out, and looked around.

"Qiang!"

Zhou An drew his sword.

The bolder people immediately retracted their heads and disappeared from sight.

At this time, Zhou An took back his saber and looked at the house in front of him.

The house is dilapidated and there are several holes in the door.

At this moment, the wooden door was open, and a thin man could be seen kneeling inside, crying bitterly with his back turned.

Next to the man, there was a thin figure, but the light in the room was too dark to see clearly.

Zhou An walked in holding a long knife.

The thin man seemed to hear footsteps and turned around, allowing Zhou An to see his face.

The man was thin, pale, had thick dark circles under his eyes, and looked sickly.

After adapting to the dark light, Zhou An also saw the situation next to the man.

A little girl knelt on the ground, clasping her hands together as if prostrating.

The little girl's chest was broken open and her internal organs had been removed.

Zhou An's eyes darkened slightly.

The little girl is exactly the one I saw just now.

This form of death is exactly the same as the previous corpse, both of which were bowing.

"My lord, my lord! Please help me! My daughter suddenly became like this this morning. Please help me, catch the murderer, and he must be severely punished!"

The thin man seemed to have grasped a straw and crawled to Zhou An's feet using both hands and feet. He kept kowtowing, tears streaming down his face.

"You get up first and then talk."

Zhou An sighed and helped the thin man up.

When he saw the corpse next to him, his eyes became lower and lower, and his hand holding the handle of the knife tightened slightly.

The thin man did not get up and was still begging. His bony arms were clutching Zhou An's clothes.

"You get up first. Let's go to the Yamen first. Of course, someone will check for you."

Zhou An suddenly felt that the thin man in front of him seemed to have lost his only support.

Thinking of the scene he just saw, the little girl stumbled out to buy meat alone, and the bloody copper coins were linked with the little girl's helplessness, Zhou An suddenly felt an unknown fire.

He knows the world is dangerous.

Even prepared.

But he didn't expect that an ordinary life would be like a piece of grass.

The man who died a few days ago died suddenly and Zhou An didn't feel much about it, but Zhou An felt the same way about this little girl.

The squirrel worshiped, the guts were eviscerated, and the little girl died.

Zhou An's hand holding the knife became tighter and tighter, and veins appeared on the back of his hand.

He tried to take a deep breath.

"You get up first. If you don't get up, how can we help you check? Go to the Yamen first. There are professionals to do this."

The thin man was still kneeling and worshiped. He raised his head when he heard this and was about to speak.

But his body was very weak, coupled with the blow he suffered, the thin man reached the point of despair. He rolled his eyes and fainted.

Zhou An sighed.

He turned around and wanted to go back to the Yamen first to report the matter.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps coming from behind.

Zhou An turned around and looked.

I don’t know when I got up, but there was a gray mouse standing at the door behind me.

The mouse is about the size of a fist and stands upright.

The two front paws were clasped together and they were bowing to him.

It was obviously a mouse, but it had a human expression on its face, with the corners of its mouth raised.

This scene was inexplicably weird, and it reminded Zhou An of a story circulating among the people of Da Chu.

When animals bow, longevity is approaching.

A creepy feeling suddenly rose up from his body, and Zhou An felt that all the hairs on his body stood on end.

He felt a cold wind blowing behind him, turned his head suddenly and saw shadows shaking on the dark wall.

The sunlight outside the door shines in, and the shadows on the wall fall off like black water.

"grumble!"

The gray mouse squealed and lay stiff on the ground.

The shadow on the ground stood upright and turned into a vague human shape, twisting in the darkness.

Zhou An suddenly felt that he couldn't move. He looked down and found that the shadow of his legs had connected with the figure opposite.

His legs were stuck in place, unable to move at all.

The black figure is gradually approaching, the figure's hands are elongated, and black nails appear on the ten fingers.

"Just the legs?"

Zhou An whispered.

The black figure's speed began to increase rapidly, and he was in front of Zhou An in the blink of an eye.

Zhou An could even feel the cold light shining on the black figure's dark nails.

Each nail was half a meter long and was pointed at Zhou An's abdomen.

"So that's it, you just used this to take out their internal organs, and then you ate them?"

The last battle with his aunt was still vivid in his mind. Zhou An felt calm and the air flow in his body continued to reverberate.

The hand that had been holding the long knife pulled it out.

"Qiang!"

There was a soft cry, and the knife turned into a white line.

Airflow covers the blade.

In front of Zhou An's eyes, the black shadow was no longer a shadow, but a plate of vegetables that was about to be cut.

A clear understanding rose in his heart. At the critical moment, the knife in Zhou An's right hand slashed diagonally from bottom to top.

quick!

What stands out about this knife is the word "quick".

The air flow covered the blade, drawing a thin white line in the darkness.

The white lines spread, one turned into two, two turned into four, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into more than a dozen white lines.

The white line transformed into sword light passed through the body, and the black shadow suddenly stopped, looking down at his chest.
