"Huh?"
Lu Xuan glanced at the soldiers guarding the city gate, feeling extremely strange.
Because when he entered the city gate, these city gate guards did not check his identity.
Moreover, the closing time of this Lanshan County town gate seemed a bit too early.
"Hurry up, Little Liu, what are you dawdling for?"
"It's going to be dark soon, I'm not waiting for you."
"Don't ah, Brother Chen, wait for me, I'll be right there."
"Damn it, forget it!"
In the distance, those city gate soldiers quickly left, followed by a young soldier hurrying along.
"This young master, why are you still here? It's going to be dark soon, go home early."
"Recently, there have been dirty things appearing in the city, the entire Ren family is dead!"
At this time, several middle-aged men passed by Lu Xuan and said a few words to him before leaving together without looking back.
In less than a moment, the city gate became desolate and silent!
Seeing this scene, Lu Xuan frowned, still sitting on his horse, motionless.
The entire county town was gripped by fear.
Dirty things appearing?
Could it be because of the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend?
How is this Lanshan County magistrate doing his job? How did the news of the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend spread to everyone?
Lu Xuan had already learned about the detailed information of the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend on the way here.
Its level is Fierce-grade, almost approaching Calamity-grade.
Therefore, four years ago, two Blood Refinement Realm Great Completion experts and three Yellow-rank Blackbird Guards who had just entered the Blood Refinement Realm came to eliminate the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend.
The Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend is still a somewhat special Fierce-grade entity because its power is close to that of a Calamity-grade entity, giving it a strange ability.
The more severe human fear is, the shorter its appearance time will be.
Because devouring extremely frightened humans can greatly increase its Yin energy.
Therefore, this is also where Lu Xuan felt strange.
The current Lanshan County magistrate also experienced the resurrection of the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend once four years ago.
The Blackbird Guard leading the team at that time also clearly informed him of the information about the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend.
When the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend revives again, he must do everything possible to cover up the truth and absolutely not let the people in the city know about it.
Otherwise, once the people in the city know, they will fall into deep fear.
In that case, the consequences would be unimaginable.
For the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend, all the fearful people in the entire county town are its prey.
Now, it is very obvious that the people of the entire city have fallen into fear.
It's not even dusk yet, and the people in the city are already hiding at home.
Lu Xuan hesitated for a moment and still gave up on questioning the Lanshan County magistrate.
It's getting dark now, and Lu Xuan decided to deal with this Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend first.
It wouldn't be too late to find the Lanshan County magistrate later!
With this thought, Lu Xuan rode Shenfeng Jun towards the center of the city.
Since there were not many people along the way, Lu Xuan's speed was not affected in the slightest.
Before long, Lu Xuan arrived in front of a large inn.
However, there were several waiters in front of the inn, packing things up, seemingly already closed.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan jumped off his horse and walked towards the inn.
In front of the inn, an older waiter saw Lu Xuan's figure and quickly trotted over, a bright smile on his face.
The waiter spoke while bowing to Lu Xuan, showing great enthusiasm.
"Welcome, guest!"
After Lu Xuan entered the inn, he simply scanned it with his eyes and then said unhurriedly.
"Take good care of my horse and prepare a top-class room for me!"
"And prepare some food and wine."
In front of the inn counter, a round, chubby man was the innkeeper.
When the innkeeper saw Lu Xuan, he, like the waiter, ran over with an enthusiastic smile.
"Yes, yes, yes, please wait a moment, guest."
"You quickly clean up a top-class room for this young master to stay in."
"Guest, it's a good thing you came in time, otherwise we would have closed."
The last sentence of the innkeeper made Lu Xuan's eyes narrow, and then he said without revealing any emotion.
"Innkeeper, it's still early, why is your inn closing so early?"
As soon as Lu Xuan finished speaking, the innkeeper's smiling face immediately collapsed, becoming sad and worried.
"Alas, guest, as soon as I saw you, I knew you were from outside the county town."
"This young master, you really came at a bad time."
"Recently, these days, let me tell you..." The innkeeper suddenly lowered his voice, leaned close to Lu Xuan, and whispered.
"There are said to be dirty things in the county town!"
"The entire Ren family was killed by that dirty thing."
"I heard that the Ren family died horribly, their entire bodies were drained of blood, just like corpses that had been dried for decades."
"Young master, don't think I'm bluffing you, these are all true."
"This is a message from a good friend of mine in the county government, absolutely true!"
"So, young master, don't mess around tonight, the dirty thing will come out at night."
"Tomorrow morning, I advise you to leave here as soon as possible."
"If I didn't have a big family here, I would have wanted to leave here for a while."
The innkeeper talked endlessly, thinking that the young master in front of him would be as afraid as he was after hearing it.
As a result, this young master's face showed no signs of fear.
"Young master, don't underestimate that dirty thing."
"Master Ren was a Bone Refinement Realm martial artist, but he still died tragically at the hands of that ghost thing."
So it really is the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend!
Lu Xuan didn't care about what the innkeeper said later.
Lu Xuan has now confirmed it.
The people here in the county town really know about the existence of the Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend.
"Okay, I thank you for your guidance, innkeeper."
Hearing Lu Xuan's reply, the innkeeper finally stopped talking.
Even when he took Lu Xuan to the prepared top-class room, the innkeeper said a few more words at the end.
"Young master, if you need anything, just tell me."
"Remember, don't make any big noises at night!"
Nothing happened overnight!
The sunlight shone on Lu Xuan through the window paper.
At this time, Lu Xuan was sitting cross-legged on the bed, seemingly not having slept all night.
Did not appear?
That Bloodthirsty Corpse Fiend didn't show up last night?
Late last night, Lu Xuan was alone in the silent county town.
Lu Xuan had been to every place in the county town.
However, to Lu Xuan's surprise, he didn't find any Yin energy.
"It seems I have to stay here for another day."
