Chapter 171 The last persistence
After Gu Nian'an left the inn, Ye Jinxiu picked up a new teacup from the table, poured herself a cup of tea, and slowly began to taste it.
Well, she was still very satisfied with the conversation with the young man tonight.
Judging from previous investigations and recent contacts, the young man is a man who values his promises. Getting his guarantee tonight can be regarded as an insurance for the safety of Xue Yatou and Xiao Wei.
Alas! The only problem was that there was no substantial evidence that something bad was about to happen in Wuyun City, and she couldn't tell anyone else about it. If someone asked her about the source of the news, she would have a hard time explaining it.
At the same time, if she thought about it from a darker perspective, if she revealed the news that something unexpected was going to happen in Wuyun City at this time, maybe after the unexpected happened, some people would directly put the blame on their Yanyue Sect or the border troops in order to shirk responsibility.
After all, without any signs, if you do know what is going to happen in advance, it is inevitable that some idiots with holes in their brains will think that they are the ones behind the trouble.
Moreover, they have special identities. Once someone with ulterior motives gets a hold of them, the consequences may be even more terrifying than the changes that are about to happen in Wuyun City.
Alas! Human hearts and human nature are sometimes really hard to explain clearly. She didn't dare to gamble, nor would she pin the future of Yanyue Sect and the Border Army on other people's character and illusory luck.
Sitting in the lobby of the inn, Ye Jinxiu still couldn't think of any good way to deal with the situation until she finished the whole pot of tea.
After sitting quietly in the lobby for a while, she stood up and walked upstairs.
Oh! No matter what, I hope that young man can find some clues as soon as possible, so that she can think of a way to ask the government to handle it.
If it really doesn't work, we can only take it one step at a time.
The next morning, the sky was still a little dark and Gu Nian'an was walking alone on the quiet street.
Alas! Thinking of last night's exploration, he couldn't help but feel a little melancholy. Wuyun City was too big, and Du Yuming could teleport.
To find someone who can teleport in such a large area, ha! The odds are about the same as winning the lottery.
However, last night was not completely fruitless. While searching for Du Yuming, he found several corpses that had been drained of blood. That was why he went to the Wuyun City County Government to investigate.
There were more than seventy bodies that had been drained of blood in the county government morgue, and these mummies had only appeared in the past two days. This was really exaggerated.
If we add in the ones I discovered last night and some that haven't been found yet, the number of people who have died at Du Yuming's hands recently should be close to a hundred.
Thinking of this, Gu Nian'an couldn't help but pause, wondering if he had overlooked something.
Normally, a person's blood volume is about 4000-5000ml. If there are people, it would be enough to fill a large vat.
Sucking such a large amount of blood in just two or three days probably cannot be explained by personal needs.
This also reminded Gu Nian'an of a formation commonly used by villains in novels or TV dramas in his previous life.
"Blood Sacrifice"
If this is true, then the treasure in Du Yuming's hand does not seem to be a good thing either, and the changes that are about to happen in Wuyun City may be closely related to Du Yuming and the treasure in his hand.
But what can you do even if you know it? Du Yuming can teleport. Ever since he became irrational, he has become more and more skilled at teleportation.
It is already extremely difficult to find his whereabouts now, not to mention that I have to find a way to capture him alive for the sake of my uncle's whereabouts. This is almost unsolvable.
With an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes, Gu Nian'an walked towards the inn step by step.
Just when he turned a corner, he saw two little beggars huddled in the corner of the street.
Looking at the two little figures snuggling together, Gu Nian'an slowly walked up to them, took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and gently placed it in the broken bowl in front of them.
"clang"
The silver ingot made a crisp collision sound when it hit the bowl wall.
The slightly older child opened his eyes alertly when he heard the noise, but when he saw the silver ingot in the broken bowl, his eyes lit up with surprise.
He carefully held the silver ingot in the bowl in his palm and then began to look around. When he saw the white-robed figure gradually moving away, he quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Gu Nian'an turned his head slightly to look at the child who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, and the light in his eyes gradually became firm.
We can't hesitate any longer. If we allow the situation to continue, too many innocent people in Wuyun City will die.
If that’s the case, then we must find a way to force Du Yuming out, and then kill him with a thundering strike.
As for the whereabouts of my uncle, alas! I can only ask the people of Yanyue Sect to help me think of a solution after the crisis in Wuyun City is resolved.
At the same time, in a dilapidated temple not far from Wuyun City, Du Yuming curled up in a corner with his eyes losing their luster.
What on earth had I done? Killing people, sucking blood, living like a monster.
He reached out and touched his chest, feeling the rise and fall of his heart, and a look of deep despair appeared on his face.
I tried, I cut open the chest and pulled out the heart and lungs, but I never found the so-called treasure.
He also thought about committing suicide, but it was useless. He chopped off his head, drank poison, and even tried burning himself in fire. However, the final result was that he only deepened his desire for blood, so he killed more people to repair his injured body.
Thinking of those people who had died tragically at his hands recently, Du Yuming held his head and cried quietly.
Although those people were found guilty in the government files, what if, what if the government made a mistake, what if they were innocent.
The more he thought about it, the more terrified he became, and the more his heart collapsed, but he really couldn't control himself, couldn't control his body's desire for blood.
During the day, I can still stay awake for a short time, but once night comes, I will turn into a bloodthirsty beast.
Now, sucking the blood of the bad guys is his last struggle. If... If he continues like this, he doesn't know how long he can keep up this persistence.
He regretted it now, regretting the deal with the fragment that day. Perhaps it would have been the best choice not to resist too much and die directly at the hands of the white-robed boy the day before.
After lying quietly on the ground for a while, Du Yuming tremblingly crawled up from the ground.
No, while I still have some rationality, I must at least find a way to notify Taoist Qi Heng and Miss Xiao Huan, and let them leave Wuyun City as soon as possible.
He no longer cared about others, but Miss Xiaohuan and Taoist Qi Heng were both rare good people in this world. They shouldn't be in trouble, and he shouldn't put them in danger because of him.
