The Crown Prince is Actually a Princess! SEASON 1

Chapter 20 - The Cannibal Fish of Luo River

....

Murong Yu didn't like to take servants when traveling, only the ghost guards secretly followed.
If it were not for sudden and immeasurable danger, the ghost guards would not appear.
This was his order.

The same was true for Murong Ci.
She didn't bring Qin Ruo along with her when she went out of the Palace this morning.
Therefore, there were no people who had identified them at this moment.

Murong Yu took out a token from his arms, and shook it in front of the conscientious servant,

"Get out of the way!"

The golden light flashed, and the official was blinded by the flash, and only vaguely saw the token in gold on the black background, with a big symbol written that said: "Yu".

'People from the Royal Palace!'

Looking at the upright man wearing a black gold brocade robe, a purple jade crown on his head, and the extraordinary demeanor that was very different from that of all living beings, the official judged that the man must be a powerful man.

His legs were weak in fright, and his face was full of emotions and facial expressions.
An ordinary guard like him couldn't afford to offend the Imperial Palace.

Murong Ci patted him on the shoulder,

"Good job here!"

The official was stunned, dumbfounded to the point he didn't know if laugh or cry.
How could someone who offended the Royal Palace still be called 'good'?

The two officials were inspecting the corpse lying on the ground.
Murong Yu also squatted down, Murong Ci walked to the other side and took a closer look.

The deceased was a woman of about thirty years old.
Judging from the texture of the clothes she was wearing, her family was quite wealthy.
However, her soaked clothes had many holes torn, and there were blood stains.
A few wisps of blood remained on her beautiful face, and several obvious wounds could be found.

The dead body of the woman was scary and looked like a female ghost.
A government officer was questioning a middle-aged boatman witness.
It seemed that the boatman saw a person floating in the river not far in front of him, and he picked her up.
At this time, the people's comments reached Murong Ci's ears.

"This woman's face seems to have been pecked by 'something'.
There are so many wounds like that.
It's terrible."

"Is this the doing of a cannibal fish?
Wasn't there a song that has been sung these days?
There was a line with a Cannibal Fish in it."

"I think it should be 80% a Cannibal Fish.
Look at her left hand! Some pieces of meat have been pecked away from there."

"There really is such a terrible thing as a Cannibal Fish in the world?!
I don't know what kind of fish can eat people."

"It must be the famous water monster in the Luo River, a fish spirit!"

"It's scary!"

Murong Yu looked at the corpse, then stood up and cast his eyes on Murong Ci.

She turned and stood under the willow tree and looked at the Luo River gurgling eastward.
The river was clear and clear, and the sky and clouds were like a glazed world.
However, the River was now stained with dirty and bloody murders.
