"Investigate something, investigate something?" Hearing Zhuang Xiaoyuan's words, the old lady did not answer her question directly, but looked Zhuang Xiaoyuan up and down with suspicious eyes. Who called Zhuang Xiaoyuan's appearance is too young, it's not right to say that he is too young, he should be said to be too young.

Noticing the old lady's suspicious gaze, Zhuang Xiaoyuan smiled helplessly and took out a badge from his backpack and put it on his chest, fortunately, he listened to Jia Dafu's words before coming and made a career recognition in Blue Stone City by the way: "Grandma, don't look at me like this, I am already an adult, and I have also passed the assassin professional certification of the Professional Association." ”

"Huh, adults? Three-time professionals? With a look of surprise in his eyes, he looked Zhuang Xiaoyuan up and down again, although it was a little unbelievable, but the professional badge could not be faked. The old lady already believed Zhuang Xiaoyuan's words.

"Can you please tell me what's going on here? I'm from Blue Rock City, because I need to ask Zhao Qianrong about something. But looking at your appearance, is there something wrong with this Zhao Qianrong? After convincing the old lady of her identity, Zhuang Xiaoyuan immediately asked.

"Well, it doesn't hurt to tell you, it's not a secret after all, just ask a local person something that everyone can know. Zhao Qianrong's family died half a year ago. Shaking her head and sighing slightly, the old lady said with a regretful expression.

"Died half a year ago? How come, is it killing people? With a frown, Zhuang Xiaoyuan turned his head to look at the street he had just come out with a hint of surprise on his face. No wonder no one knocked on it just now, and I couldn't feel the anger inside, because no one lived at all.

"Kill people? Have they sinned against anyone? However, the death of their family was not done by others, it was all his own sin. Surprised, the old lady didn't delve too deeply into the words in Zhuang Xiaoyuan's mouth, and continued to talk about Zhao Qianrong.

"Everything is because of a stone, for that stone, Zhao Qianrong sold all the shops under his name, and even mortgaged the house. In the end, he killed his wife and daughter because of that stone. Even he died on this stone. ”

"Stones? Isn't it a black stone? Hearing the old lady talk about stones, Zhuang Xiaoyuan remembered Wang Renjie's black mist weapon in his mind, as well as the black ore that he heard from Jia Dafu and was forged into the weapon by Wang Renjie.

"Well, although I haven't seen the stone in its appearance, according to rumors, the stone is indeed black." Nodding her head, affirming Zhuang Xiaoyuan's question, the old lady continued to tell the story about Zhao Qianrong's family, which had already spread in the North Wind City, about the cursed stone.

After listening to this story, Zhuang Xiaoyuan knew that such a thing had happened in Zhao Qianrong's family, which made Zhuang Xiaoyuan pay more attention to the black stone, I am afraid that the black stone does hide the black fog of Loki.

This story happened half a year ago, Zhao Qianrong, who went to Blue Rock City to fail in business, and suffered heavy losses from the business began to run a stable shop, although the shop business did not make as much money as the businessman, but it was also better than stability.

A stable life also gave Zhao Qianrong more time to spend with his wife and daughter. If life goes on like this, it will be a long-term happiness for him. But one day, everything changed when a special customer came to the store.

No one knew where the guest was from, and no one had seen the guest's true face except Zhao Qianrong himself. After the guest and Zhao Qianrong talked alone, Zhao Qianrong suddenly became a little different from before.

The heart that was originally peaceful because of the stable life was filled with desire again, and after meeting with the guest, Zhao Qianrong seemed to be enchanted, and sold his shop with excitement on his face, and even mortgaged his house despite the obstruction of his wife and daughter, in order to buy a stone brought by the guest.

After exhausting all his family wealth, Zhao Qianrong finally bought the stone. After that, Zhao Qianrong's family of three all hid in the mortgaged home and never came out.

A month later, the deadline for the mortgage on the house arrived. The staff of the pawnshop came to Zhao Qianrong's house to urge them to pay back, but no one came to open the door. The pawnshop in North Wind City is not an ordinary pawnshop that sells things, and those who do this kind of pawn business have more or less some background, otherwise what should they do if they are repaid.

After knocking on the door to no avail, the staff of the pawnshop thought that Zhao Qianrong had no money to repay the debt and planned to repay the debt, so they called the thugs of the pawnshop and smashed open the door of Zhao Qianrong's house under the watchful eyes of the surrounding neighbors and people watching the excitement.

The door was smashed open, but the scene that was reflected in the eyes of the spectators surprised everyone. Zhao Qianrong's house was covered with bloodstains, and his wife and daughter were all hacked to death with sharp blades. He fell to his knees in front of the stone he had bought and committed suicide.

If someone dies, it's a big deal. Even the pawnshop's background could not be concealed, so soon the city guards took over the area, and the pawnshop staff was temporarily taken into custody as suspects.

However, it didn't take long for the pawnshop people to be released, because the incident itself had nothing to do with them. The murder was quickly investigated, and everything was done by Zhao Qianrong himself. He killed his wife and daughter with his own hands, and finally committed suicide in front of the stone.

After the murder was decided, the crime scene began to be cleared, and the bodies of Zhao Qianrong and his wife and daughter were also collected for burial. The case came to light so quickly, and both the onlookers and the officers of the city guard breathed a sigh of relief. But it didn't end there.

On the night of the murder, two city guard soldiers guarding near Zhao Qianrong's house died. They all died in front of the stone, and the cause of their death was cannibalism. Both of them stabbed each other with their weapons.

The death of the city guard made the incident even more troublesome, but because the relationship between the two city guards themselves was not good, the leaders of the city guard thought that they had such a result because of a quarrel, but faintly many people felt uneasy in their hearts.

And then another night passed, and another man died. This time it was the next-door neighbor of Zhao Qianrong's house who died. He also appeared in front of the black stone when he was found sleeping in his own house, and also committed suicide, and his wife and daughter were also killed by his own hands.

The same thing happened again, panic began to spread, and rumors of a cursed stone began to circulate among the crowd. After that, the City Lord's Mansion arranged for professionals to go to Zhao Qianrong's house to investigate, but as long as they entered at night, they would inevitably die in front of the stone the next day. In the end, even the City Lord's Mansion couldn't do anything.

The rumors became more and more fierce, and the families who originally lived near Zhao Qianrong's house were all afraid to find a way to move away, and those who couldn't move away finally died in front of the stones. Eventually, the street was abandoned.
