Chapter 386 Three Graffiti

There was the smell of cat demon everywhere in the mountains and forests, sometimes close and sometimes far, but the cat demon never showed up.

The forest is not big, but the three mountains are not connected. The terrain is steep, the undulating hills are endless, and there is no way to go. If the cat demon deliberately hides, it is not easy to find it. But since that is the case, why did the cat demon deliberately release the smell and attract them to search the mountains?

It was midnight and there was nothing left.

At this moment, a cat cries came from deep in the mountains.

The two of them looked in the voice and saw a black shadow flashing in the distance.

It's a cat demon!

Fan Xiaodao informed Qin Xing that everyone would stand on time and not act rashly.

With the strength shown by the cat demon, even ordinary people in the world are no match for them. Fortunately, in this operation, everyone also prepared beast traps, beast trap nets and other equipment, and dug traps in some wide areas, waiting for the cat demon to enter the trap.

Fan and Zhao followed the black shadow and chased after him.

The shadow was like a ghost in the dark night, and it was extremely fast, traveling between trees, like walking on flat ground.

The two of them are already the best in the world of light skills, but they still cannot catch up with the cat demon. However, on the one hand, the cat demon has a strange smell and Zhao Xing can always lock its traces. On the other hand, every time the cat demon runs for a distance, it will deliberately stop, as if waiting for them!

After half an hour, the two chased to the depths of the dense forest. What caught their eyes was a cave, but the cat demon was gone.

Fan Xiaodao said, "I always feel that it was deliberately bringing us here." After that, he was about to go in, but was stopped by Zhao Xing and said, "Be careful of fraud!"

However, the goal is most likely to be right in front of you, so how could Fan Xiaodao give up?

He pulled out the Jinghong Sword and cut two pine branches. The pine branches were full of pine resin, lit them with flint, made them into two simple torches, and walked in carefully. As soon as he entered the cave, he felt a strange fragrance, which was completely different from the rotten smell on the cat demon that he had smelled before.

The cave is extremely large, three or four meter wide, more than meter high, and about five or six meter deep, making it look extremely spacious.

There was a stone bed inside, covered with dead grass, and another stone table. Fan Xiaodao saw kerosene lamps and candles on the table, so he lit it with a torch, and suddenly the cave lit up a lot. As expected by the two, there were not many things in the cave, but they were clean and tidy, all the items were neatly arranged, and there were several women's clothes in the corner, which were washed clean and stacked neatly, and placed there.

There is no imagined scene of bloody and flesh flying everywhere.

This surprised the two of them.

Zhao Xing suddenly said, "There is something on the wall!"

Fan Xiaodao looked up and noticed that there were three murals painted on the walls of the cave with red cinnabar.

He picked up the candlestick and the two of them came over to take a look.

The first painting is a courtyard, which seems to be a family of three. There is a man and a woman in the courtyard. There are two trees outside the door, one is a jujube tree, and the other is unknown. Under the tree, there is a girl with a red-headed rope standing under the tree to pick jujubes. Not far away, there is a man with a unclear face, holding a rope or something in his hand, staring at the girl with malicious intentions. In the distance, there is a drum tower, and a big bell is hung on the drum tower.

The second picture is a group portrait. It is painted in a place similar to a dungeon. It is pitch black all around. Five or six people are tied to pillars, both men and women, and they look extremely painful. On a stone platform not far away, there is a man tied up, and two other people in weird clothes. One of them presses his throat with a knife, and the other is pouring something into his mouth. The tied person seems to be struggling.

The third painting is extremely terrifying. It depicts some monsters, including wolves, human bodies, monsters with fangs, and monsters full of spikes. The ground is full of corpses, broken arms and broken limbs, and everywhere, which is shocking. In one corner, a monster in red clothes and human bodies is gnawing on a corpse on the ground.

The painting style is very childish, and it looks like a naughty child's graffiti.

But the content in the painting is shocking.

Zhao Xingdao, "What did it deliberately lead us here, is it trying to tell us?"

"As far as I guess, someone kidnapped them and turned them into monsters that are neither human nor ghost."

Just then, a black shadow flashed by.

The two of them quickly alerted them, but they saw that the cat demon was standing behind them.

This is their first direct contact with the cat demon.

The body is six feet long, with a rotten body, a cat-faced human body, eyes are like a bucket, fangs in the mouth, slightly short arms, and five fingers are like sharp bayonets, shining with cold light.

What attracted their attention was that a red headband was tied on the top of the cat demon's head, and the way it tied was exactly the same as the little girl in the courtyard.

After the cat demon appeared, he did not attack the two of them, but just stared at them with caution.

Seeing that it seemed to be hostile, Fan Xiaodao asked, "Can you understand our words?"

The cat demon nodded.

He pointed to the mural on the wall and asked, "Is this your drawing?"

“Meow!”

The cat demon can't speak, and when it opens, it will make the cat's meow.

Seeing that it could understand human words, Fan Xiaodao asked again, "What did you want to tell us?"

The cat demon flashed, came to the mural, pointed to the third painting, and kept making meowing sounds, feeling a little nervous, as if he wanted to tell them something. However, Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing could not guess what it meant at all, so he asked, "You did the eight murders in Changping City?"

“Meow!”

"Why?"

"Meow, Meow..."

The cat demon kept whispering, and seemed a little impatient, and he kept grabbing the wall with his sharp claws.

Fan Xiaodao pointed at the cat demon on the wall and pointed to the girl in the courtyard, "Is this you?"

The cat nodded.

Fan Xiaodao pointed to the second painting again, "Where is this?"

When the cat demon heard this, he seemed to remember bad memories, and there was another fear from the heart. It was jumping up and down the cave a little irritatedly, as if it was trying to express something, but the two of them couldn't understand its body language at all. Fan Xiaodao could only change his way, "Where are the people you killed who have poached their internal organs?"

Upon hearing this, the cat demon turned around and went out, looked back at the two of them, signaling them to follow.

Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing followed and came to a pile of rocks.

With the light of the torch, the two saw piles of burnt marks on the ground, which were the internal organs of those who were hollowed out.

There was still some quicklime on the ground.

The two were very confused.

It turned out that after the cat demon killed someone, he poached the internal organs and did not eat them, but took them here to incinerate.

"Why burn it?"

The cat demon kept gestured and made a meowing whimper.

Just then, a loud shout came from afar, "Soul, come on!"

It turned out that the cat demon's cry alarmed Qin Xing and others. Qin Xing rushed over and saw the cat demon roaring in front of the pile of rocks. He rushed over with weapons and wanted to kill the cat demon and avenge his sister Qin Lian. When the cat demon saw the visitor, he screamed and jumped down, his body soared into the air and landed on a tree three feet away.

Qin Xing said: "Shoot the arrow!"

Before Fan Xiaodao could stop him, more than a dozen bows and arrows shot towards the tree where the cat demon was hiding.

The cat monster screamed, waved its claws and cut off more than a dozen bows and arrows. The bow and arrow lost its counterweight and landed on the ground. Qin Xing saw the enemy who killed his sister, and was reluctant to let it go. He lifted the knife and rushed. The cat monster let out another strange cry, leaping several times in succession, and escaping into the mountains and forests.

Qin Xing was about to chase after him, but was stopped by Fan Xiaodao, "Stop chasing him!"

Qin Xing asked in confusion: "Why?"

"There is something else in this case."

Qin Xing said, "I don't care. It kills my sister. I want to kill it with my own hands to avenge my sister!"

"You are not its opponent!"

Qin Xing was a little dissatisfied, "What about you? Aren't you known as the famous arrester in the capital? Why do you watch it escape and remain indifferent?"

Fan Xiaodao also felt angry in his heart and said, "If you weren't acting recklessly..."

Zhao Xing shouted, "Little Knife!"

Fan Xiaodao forced himself to suppress his anger, and the cat demon had already escaped. It seemed that there was no chance tonight.

The two decided to hide the matter from the cave.

The cat demon attracted them, obviously trying to tell them something.

After dawn, come here again and see that you can't get any useful clues.

Everyone returned to the periphery.

Yu Hailong felt a pity when he heard that the cat demon had escaped. However, since he knew it was hiding here, he would send more people to trap it. He must find a way to catch the cat demon. He wanted to see the cat alive and the corpse alive. It would be impossible. Even if it sets fire on the mountain, he would be willing to do so.

After returning to the yamen, Fan and Zhao analyzed their bizarre encounters tonight.

"We mistakenly believed in Xiao Tangguan's people, the people in the Demon Cult, and there was indeed no truth in our mouths."

What kind of evil beasts, cat worms, half-human and half-demons, eat human internal organs, if they hadn't seen them tonight, they would have made up lies and almost believed them. After some exchange, the two of them could basically confirm that this "cat mons" should have been kidnapped when they were young, and then fed something, and turned into what they are now neither human nor ghost.

During the exchange tonight, although the cat demon had the mind, it was still at the age of a little girl of five or six years old.

She could not speak and could not write, so she had to convey information to them by drawing.

However, there are some confusions.

The cat demon killed people, but it was not a random kill. It was the people who had been to Xiaotangguan on the tenth day of August. After killing people, they poached their internal organs and burned them to ashes. Are they destroying the corpse, covering up something, or trying to prevent some terrible things from happening?

The two decided to go to the cave again after dawn.

No one else.

Since the cat demon is willing to communicate with them, as long as you are willing to spend some time, you should find the answer.

At this moment, someone came to knock on the door. After opening the door, it was Mr. Li from Huaimingfang. He looked panicked and said to the two, "Mr. Fan, Lord Zhao, something is not good!"

"What's wrong?"
