C1 Human Skin

It was the rainy season, and the rain had been pouring for more than ten days. It had been a long time since they had seen the sun. Such a rainy season was especially worrying.

Caiang was originally just passing by Qujiang, but she was trapped here by the heavy rain.

It was already late at night, so she could only find an inn to rest for the time being.

The waiter came up with a pot of pear blossoms and a few dishes. Caiang leisurely sat by the window. The sound of the rain outside the window and the chatter of the customers beside her reached her ears.

"Did you guys hear? The young master of the Jiang family in Jinling was struck by lightning and has been unconscious for a long time."

"Jinling Jiang family? Could it be that Immortal Elder?"

"Hey, who else could it be? I heard that he went to Changyang to clean up the filth, and when he came back, he just happened to encounter a lightning tribulation. Some people said that he probably didn't have much time left."

"Poor young master of the Jiang family. He was young and talented, but his life was not good."

"Didn't he just marry three months ago? That young lady was also quite unlucky. After entering the house for three months, she might be going to be a widow."

"What's so unlucky about him? You guys don't know." When the waiter saw that there were no customers in the heavy rain, he directly sat down nearby to rest. Then, a few people gathered together and discussed, "The reason why the young master of the Jiang family encountered such a thing might be because of his wife."

"What do you mean?" Someone raised his ears to listen.

Caiang held her wine cup and looked at the people who were discussing about other people's family matters.

"The woman that Young Master Jiang is marrying is from the ghost control clan. Think about it, she's dealing with ghosts all day long. Maybe her Yin energy has touched Young Master Jiang, or maybe he has cast a curse on Young Master Jiang. I heard that their relationship isn't good …"

"How do you know that their relationship isn't good? Do you know that Young Master Jiang, or do you know his newly-wed wife? Maybe they are inseparable, and they are so sweet. "

"Don't you believe this? Really. My cousin is doing business in Jinling. He has asked around. After his newly-wed wife knocked out Young Master Jiang, she went out to play. Think about it, her husband is in a critical situation, yet she still has the mood to do something else. How can their relationship be good? "

"Tsk." After drinking the wine, Caiang wanted to cover her ears. She could hear Jiang Louyue's name wherever she went.

As expected of a famous young talent, the sect master of the Yellow Talismans. Even the village folk knew his name.

These people had nothing to do, so they just made up stories about other people's family matters.

If she really did cast a curse, she would first curse these people who were spouting lies behind her back, and let them die with their intestines broken.

"Die … Die … Die …" A scream suddenly rang out, breaking the peace in the inn.

Caiang suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of the voice.

It was quite close to the river, and the sound seemed to have come from the Qujiang.

"Another dead person? It's not peaceful lately. " The waiter sighed.

Caiang frowned slightly and caught a word: "Another?"

"Exactly, sir. This is the sixth person who died this month. They all died by the river. Moreover, their appearances were especially terrifying. They were all skinned." The waiter saw that she was interested and continued, "Do you think it's because of evil?"

Caiang was also interested. She put down her wine cup and got up to walk out, "I'll go take a look."

"Young lady, you can't go over. This is very evil. Who knows what kind of thing did it? I advise you to stay in the inn obediently at night and don't run around." The waiter hurriedly advised her.

"If it's done by evil, then it's best. Maybe I can get rid of it." Caiang said unhurriedly.

"May I ask which sect this young lady is from? Which immortal is she from?" The people who were eating at the side were full of interest.

Caiang looked at them from the corner of her eyes, "I am the poisonous woman who was cursed by the young master of the Jiang family."

For a moment, the atmosphere was exceptionally awkward.

When Caisang rushed over, there were already a lot of people gathered at the riverside.

A few servants who looked like servants stood in front of the corpse, not letting anyone get close to it, waiting for the people from the government to come.

Many residents were talking about it. Caisang heard a lot of them, most of them talking about how miserable and terrifying the dead were.

Caisang went up and reported her identity. She squatted down to check the corpse.

When the blood-stained white cloth was lifted, even though Caisang was mentally prepared, she was still shocked. This person had actually been skinned alive.

The smell of blood rushed to her face. With just a glance, Caisang hurriedly covered the white cloth.

After carefully feeling it, she didn't feel any resentment or ghostly aura. It didn't seem like it was done by demons. Since it wasn't done by demons, it had nothing to do with her.

There were also many evil people among humans. Such cruel methods were even more despicable than demons. However, no matter how miserable the death was, it was still human. It was up to the government to capture the culprit and judge it.

Caisang returned to the inn. The heavy rain had washed away all the evidence. It wouldn't be easy for the government to chase after the culprit.

However, this was not what Caisang should be concerned about.

The reason why Caisang came here was because she had been entrusted by the old lady to go to Changyang and all the places that Jiang City Yue had been to. She carefully checked if there was anything strange. Why was he unconscious after returning from Changyang?

Caiang wrote a letter to the old mistress, "When I returned, I met with rain. It was inconvenient for me to ride. After the rain stopped, I returned. There were no abnormalities along the way."

The rain was getting more and more intense. Caiang was trapped in the inn for two days. On the third night, a strong wind suddenly blew, and the city was filled with resentment.

Caiang suddenly jumped out of the bed and opened the window. The wind and rain blew from outside the window, wetting his clothes and skin. The sparkling water droplets on her cold face were covered with a layer of white enamel.

She ran along the area with the densest resentment in the city. As she ran to the river, Caiang smelled a fishy smell of blood.

The moonlight was hazy. Caiang could vaguely see a person standing by the river with something in his hand.

The clouds dispersed and the moonlight shone on the river. Only then did she see the scene by the river. She immediately felt goosebumps all over her body.

The person grabbed a soft human skin and squeezed his legs into the human skin as if he was going to put it on.
