Chapter 37 Utterly Inhuman
“Speaking of which…” Gu Qianyang looked at the corpse on the ground and said to the Nekomata, “I feel like this corpse can be used.”
Looking at the corpse in the flower bed, Gu Qianyang was not picky. He reached out his hand and dragged the corpse out of the flower bed.
“He’s your own brother, and you’re treating your cousin like this?”
The Nekomata was quite surprised by Gu Qianyang’s actions.
“Don’t humans always like to say ‘the dead should be respected’?”
Gu Qianyang said indifferently to the mockery in the Nekomata’s words.
“Anything can be utilized. Rather than letting his body go to waste here, it’s better to use it as a medium to create a Ghoul with decent strength.”
“Tsk tsk…”
The Nekomata clicked its tongue.
Throwing Qin Liu’s father into molten steel, sinking his mother into the river, and finally erasing Qin Liu’s memory, tying her by his side as a sacrifice and locking her in a room.
And now, even turning his own cousin into a Ghoul?
The things this old man in front of him had done were truly disgusting.
“Really, to be honest, compared to you, we monsters seem quite humane.”
The Nekomata’s mockery was nothing to Gu Qianyang, whose skin was thicker than the city walls.
He took out a small knife from his pocket, dug into Gu Mingyuan’s corpse, and directly reached in to pull out all the colorful internal organs and intestines.
Seeing the viscous and disgusting liquid splattered everywhere, even the Nekomata couldn’t help but pinch its nose, take two steps back, and say in disgust.
“Don’t you find it disgusting…”
“Isn’t this just like butchering a pig?” Gu Qianyang said faintly, “What’s so disgusting about it?”
The Nekomata did not reply, only pinched its nose and retreated a full ten meters.
Soon, the inside of the corpse was completely hollowed out, leaving only an empty shell.
Gu Qianyang took out a talisman and stuffed it into the corpse.
When the wound on the corpse’s abdomen was sewn up again, the previously still corpse began to move again.
Like a unlucky person in a movie getting electrocuted, after twitching on the ground for a while, the corpse opened its eyes. Its unfocused pupils looked towards Gu Qianyang, as if waiting for his instructions.
“Go back to your pharmacy.”
“Yes…”
The Ghoul replied and then, like a walking corpse, shambled into the mansion.
Seeing that the other party had finally left, the Nekomata also released its hand from its nose and couldn’t help but ask.
“What’s the use of this seemingly frail corpse?”
“It’s frail to you, but to others, this thing is very strong. At the very least, it can be used as a warning and protective measure.”
Because of the sudden attack by the Night Walker’s clone, Gu Qianyang now had to be extremely vigilant to ensure Qin Liu’s safety.
This sacrifice absolutely cannot be harmed before the Night Walker is caught.
As the two were discussing, a butler dressed in black walked over.
The butler glanced at the bloody flower bed, then pretended not to see anything, bowed, and said.
“Master, people from the Ghost Exorcist Association are looking for you. It seems there are rumors of hauntings in the East Mountain, and they want you to handle it.”
“Okay.”
Gu Qianyang took the towel handed by the butler and wiped his hands.
“You clean this place up. Remember… don’t say anything about what you see.”
“Naturally, I understand, sir.”
The butler bowed slightly.
After Gu Qianyang and the Nekomata left, the butler finally breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and began to clean up the mess on the ground.
“Old Guo, what are you doing… Oh my god!”
As the butler was dealing with the corpse, a servant walked over and was startled by the scene that looked like a murder.
“You… you… you killed someone?”
“Shh~” the butler, known as Old Guo, shushed the approaching servant. “Master asked me to handle it. Don’t say anything unnecessary.”
Normally, if someone else heard this, they might be suspicious.
But for those who had worked here, this was already a common occurrence.
“That’s true…” The servant forced down the feeling of nausea and said, “Otherwise, why would Master build this house in such a secluded place? Isn’t it for convenience in handling matters?”
“Shh shh shh!”
Upon hearing this, Old Guo immediately stepped forward and covered the other person’s mouth, nervously looking around to ensure no one else was eavesdropping before saying to him.
“Do you not want to live?!”
“You can’t speak carelessly in this place, or people will really die.”
Old Guo’s words made the servant suddenly realize. He immediately looked around.
“Help me clean this place up, then pretend you saw nothing, understand?”
The servant nodded.
After receiving confirmation, Old Guo finally let go of the other person.
The two did not speak further, only focused on cleaning up the corpse on the ground.
However, the situation was indeed quite gruesome, with bloodstains everywhere, and it couldn’t be cleaned up in a short time.
After a moment of silence, the servant couldn’t help but ask Old Guo.
“Speaking of which, Old Guo, you’ve been here the longest. Do you know what that bedroom at the very end of the third floor… is for?”
Hearing the other person’s question, Old Guo just glanced at him.
“Xiao Li Zi, let me tell you something. Don’t ask about things you shouldn’t inquire about. Curiosity killed the cat.”
Even so, Xiao Li Zi still leaned forward and said to Old Guo, “After all, someone delivers food to that place every day, but no one is seen entering or leaving that room… Isn’t that strange?”
Xiao Li Zi had only been working here for a short time.
So he was naturally very curious about what was inside that room.
Even when he arrived here, the person who was originally delivering the food immediately handed over this task to him.
It was as if a terrifying beast was locked in that room, and everyone avoided it as much as possible.
“I inquired, and it seems like a very beautiful child is locked inside. Is this true?”
Perhaps annoyed by Xiao Li Zi’s pestering, Old Guo waved his hand and said.
“Listen to my advice, don’t ask about things you shouldn’t inquire about. You just need to know that a very terrifying existence lives in there…”
“And haven’t you noticed? Where is the place directly above us?”
After Old Guo put the last intestine into the bag, he stood up and left the place.
He subconsciously looked up at the sky.
Then he realized that there was only a window above, and this window… was precisely the room at the deepest part of the third floor.
Why was there such a large bloodstain directly beneath this room?
Xiao Li Zi’s heart grew a little fearful after Old Guo’s words. The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it became, and he even felt a chill.
At this moment, he didn’t dare to linger in this place and immediately chased after him.
“Old Guo, wait for me!”
