Extreme Martial Arts Modifier

Outside the window, it was pouring rain, the wind was howling, and the light and shadow inside the house swayed and creaking.

Lin Yu's figure reading the papers was hit by the dim candlelight on the wall behind him, looking like a ghost with claws and claws.

[File 1: Old Corpse in Xiaohe Village]

"There is a 53-year-old woman in Xiaohe Village. She is always greedy for petty gains, and likes to use others to extort petty profits. The villagers don't like to deal with her. One day, her temperament changed drastically, and she came to apologize everywhere, but no one wanted to. Reconcile with her. The old woman became more and more desperate every day, and on the seventh day, she cried all night, disturbing the whole village to sleep."

"On the eighth day, the villagers found that the old woman had died at home, her face was like a dead tree, and her whole body was shriveled. After an examination, the old woman's whole body had lost all blood and water, and her internal organs had been hollowed out, leaving only a skin and a skeleton, as if A mummified corpse that has been dead for thousands of years."

Lin Yu closed the case file in his hand and closed his eyes in thought.

From this volume alone, it is impossible to see what the key points of such events are.

Thinking so, Lin Yu opened the second case file.

[File 2: Thousand-tongued girl in Heshang Village]

"There is a 20-year-old peasant woman in Heshang Village. She has a fiery personality, has no virtue in her mouth, and likes to talk about people's strengths and weaknesses. The villagers are afraid to avoid them. One day, she suddenly threatened to kill all the people who usually avoided her. The villagers only regarded her as embarrassed. People took her words seriously. The peasant woman became more irritable every day, and on the seventh day, she knocked on the door with a kitchen knife, scaring the whole village to the point where no one dared to open the door overnight.”

"On the eighth day, the villagers found that the peasant woman had died by the dry well, with her tongue sticking out of her mouth and bifurcating into two smaller tongues at the tip of the tongue. The meat blanket usually covers her body, which is extremely terrifying and disgusting. After an investigation, the peasant woman's tongue has forked out more than a thousand small tongues."

Lin Yu closed the case file in his hand again, resting his forehead in thought.

Judging from the two case files, the deceased have three things in common: the first gender is female, the second is a person who is hated, and the third is a total of seven days from the appearance of the abnormality to the death.

As for the state of death, there is no resemblance.

Sweat dripped from Lin Yu's forehead. If he couldn't find the key point, I'm afraid...

Wiping off his sweat, he continued to open the third case file.

[File 3: Giant Heart Man in Huangsha Village]

"There is a 31-year-old river worker in Huangsha Village. He has a forthright personality and is righteous. He is always willing to fight injustice and help others. People must prepare 100 catties of rice and noodles, and 10 catties of meat, and although the villagers visit him personally as he said, no one can meet his requirements.”

"I never thought that the river workers would not just give up on this, but intensified their efforts. Every day, the demands were higher and higher. On the seventh day, they even asked every villager to give him their entire family property, which made the whole village feel disgusted with him."

"On the eighth day, the villagers found that the river worker died suddenly by the river beach. The upper body of the whole person swelled like a ball, and the head, feet, and limbs were like buds hanging on the meat ball. Stretching the body into deformity."

Lin Yu's hand holding the file began to tremble.

Judging from this third case file, two of the common points found earlier have been overturned. He Gong is neither a woman nor a person hated by others. Only the third point remains the same.

But just knowing that the date of death is seven days is meaningless, and it doesn't explain anything.

Lin Yu didn't think this would be the key point.

But if you can't find the key point, then...

"No, that's not right." Lin Yu swallowed hard, his voice trembling, and muttered to himself: "The second point is still the same, they are all people who are hated. Although the river workers were kind at first, but later It's always hated by people."

Thinking of this, Lin Yu seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, but then his breathing became extremely rapid.

"Okay, it's cold, why is the back of the chair so cold?"

A pair of hands that were shaking like a sieve trembled and touched back, only to find that his clothes were soaked in cold sweat after touching them for a while.

Lin Yu didn't dare to look back, for fear of seeing something weird.

He opened the fourth case file tremblingly, trying to calm himself down.

[File 4: Compound Eyed Girl in Xiamen Village]

After quickly flipping through it, he opened the fifth case file.

[File 5: Skinless Man in Xiaohu Village]

The sixth...

The seventh...

Soon, a total of seven case files were read.

The more Lin Yu looked at, the more confused his heart became. He couldn't find the common key point in several cases. There was only one thing that was the same, and that was that the victims all died seven days later.

"Seven days to die? Seven days to die! Today is the seventh day, I..."

tick-

tick-

For some reason, there was a ticking sound from behind, as if some liquid was dripping on the floor.

"House, the roof is leaking, is it leaking?"

"No, how can the roof leak? The roof of my Lin Mansion will never leak!"

Lin Yu didn't dare to look back, not only did he dare not look, he also closed his eyes tightly.

"What is the crux of these cases? What is it?"

"I can survive if I find the key point, as long as I find the key point, I can survive ahhhh-"

The tick came closer and closer to him.

Sudden……

The air behind him became extremely cold, like entering an ice cellar.

At this moment, Lin Yu figured it out, and he finally knew where the key point was.

The subjects of these case files are of different ages and genders, and their personalities and preferences are completely different, and the methods of death are even more bizarre.

But the similarities are not the only "Seven Days of Death", there is also a very critical similarity.

"It's late, it's late!"

"Hehe, it's too late. If I could figure it out earlier, why would this happen?"

"I think my eldest young master of the Lin family usually walks birds in a cage. It's so unpleasant. How can I care about these crap."

"But now, hahaha, it's too late, everything is too late..."

Lin Yu knew what the key to survival was.

It's to be nosy.

In the seven case files, each victim is someone who likes to meddle in his own business, so he will be found by evil spirits.

He, a person who grew up in a honeypot, has always only known happiness. How could he possibly care about the life and death of some poor villagers, but as a result...

Plop.

Lin Yu's body slipped weakly from the chair and fell to the ground.

There is no breath, and it is impossible to die.

Immediately afterwards, an eye suddenly appeared on his face, and after a breath, another eye appeared.

One after another, the face grows on the body.

But suddenly, the eyes faded one after another, returning to the original appearance of the skin.

And his pale face, which had already lost its blood, slowly turned rosy again.

"Master, are you alright?"

A crisp inquiry sound came from the outhouse, obviously alarmed by the movement in the room.

"Master? Master?"

After the man shouted two more times, he pushed the door open with a creak.

"Master..."

A beautiful little maid walked in from outside the door. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Lin Yu lying on the ground silently.

"It's not good, something happened to the eldest young master, something happened to the eldest young master..."
