"Oh no, my lord, another person disappeared last night. ”

The next morning, before Chen Gou went out, Locke hurriedly ran over and shouted outside the door.

When Chen Gou heard this, he immediately put on a mask and pushed open the door and walked out.

"Let's go, take me there!"

Locke and the steward of the City Lord's Mansion had already asked more than a dozen guards to wait in line outside the gate, and when they heard the order, they hugged Chen Gou and walked in the direction of the south of the city.

With so many people, it naturally quickly attracted the attention of pedestrians on the road.

Seeing the young city lord and the housekeeper with more than a dozen guards following behind Chen Gou, they all consciously gave way to the side, and couldn't help but look curiously.

"Who is this masked person, even the young city lord and the housekeeper are personally accompanied?"

"If you can have this kind of treatment, you must be a big man......"

"You know what, do you see that mask? Silver Knight of the Abyss Knights!"

............

The destination is a grocery store in the south of the city, where a young couple lives, and the husband of them is the one who has an accident.

The grocery store belongs to the layout of the front store and the backyard, and when you enter the backyard, you can see a rather beautiful woman bowing her head and crying.

Seeing Chen Gou and Locke coming, he barely stopped crying, and described the situation after saluting with red and swollen eyes.

After Chen Gou listened carefully, he walked into the bedroom without saying a word and with an expressionless face.

According to the wife, it was about four o'clock in the morning, and she felt something flash in her sleep and was awakened.

Because her husband was not in good health and had some kind of bone disease, he had bone pain all the year round, so they slept in separate beds at night.

Worried that something had happened to her husband, she got up and went to the bed next to her to check, only to find that her husband was gone.

In the bedroom, there are two beds, one against the east wall and the other against the west wall, less than three meters apart.

Chen Gou swept his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and saw a few strange black beads lying quietly on the futon of the bed on the west side.

Immediately look at the past with candle pupils, and the information obtained is extremely simple.

【Relic: Ordinary sundries】

[Introduction: After a person or animal is purified, the soul soars, and the only trace left by the physical body in the world. 】

[Attribute: None.] 】

It's not a law item, it's just an ordinary item like a stone.

But the green candle in the depths of Chen Gou's pupils flickered, showing the unpeace in his heart.

It's simple, but it hides two important pieces of information.

First, the name "Relic", which is a unique title for Buddhism.

Second, "purified" means that the man who was originally lying on the bed has indeed disappeared, and in a purified way.

The combination of these two points is enough for Chen Gou to be sure that the source of the continuous strange things in Fog City must be related to Buddhism!

"What could it be?"

"If it's just to purify people, I'm afraid that many Buddhist forces in the abyss world have this ability, but if you add that you can mutate people or animals, it shouldn't be much. ”

Chen Gou pondered for a moment, then asked the hostess to call in and asked, "Think about it carefully, what did you feel flashing in front of you at that time?"

The woman was obviously still silent in the grief of losing her husband, shook her head and said, "I don't know, I really didn't see it, I just felt very bright...... It feels glaring when your eyes are closed, but it doesn't ...... in the blink of an eye."

Light!

Glare!

Blinding light!

"Purification, relics, blinding light, mutation...... It's close, it's close, it's just the last point!"

Chen Gou suddenly narrowed his eyes, every time he made this action, it meant that his brain was running rapidly.

Compared to other Abyss Knights, Chen Gou has a unique advantage.

That is, he has stored countless information about demons and monsters in his mind, even those who only know a name and an approximate name, and can only determine their true identity, which can provide him with great help to complete his mission.

Although he certainly won't know all about the demons that have invaded Canglan, at least a considerable part of them are included.

"What is this?"

Chen Gou suddenly looked at the hostess in surprise, only to see that a handkerchief flew in front of her, helped her wipe away her tears, and then gently rubbed it on her face, as if comforting.

This Nima ......

A handkerchief turned into a fine one?

"Oh, it's a mist soul!"

Locke hurriedly explained: "There is only one word difference with the Fog Soul Beast, in fact, they are all from the Fog Soul Species. It's just that those that parasitize on animals are called fog soul beasts, and those that parasitize on inanimate objects such as stones, water, and clothes are called fog soul monsters. ”

"The strength of the Fog Soul Monster is much worse than the Fog Soul Beast, basically there are very few more than level five, and many people in the city like to keep one as a pet, and they have the IQ of a child who is about three or four years old...... Speaking of which, the Fog Soul Monster is also one of the most famous specialties of our Fog City. ”

"Parasitic on inanimate objects...... Isn't this a machine spirit?"

Chen Gou felt that this thing was very much like the legendary machine spirit that only top-level magic weapons could bring.

So he asked, "Then if they are parasitic on the law props, wouldn't their strength be very amazing?"

"The mist soul species is too weak and can only parasitize on ordinary animals or things, and the law creatures and props are too strong for them to parasitize, at least I haven't seen them grow so big. ”

Locke said as if he remembered something, and suddenly frowned and said: "But I heard my father say that it seems that there was a fog soul seed king before, and he was parasitic on the law weapon of an awakened person, and later this awakened person also made a lot of fame with this weapon and became a very famous powerhouse." ”

"So it's possible that the Fog Soul Species is parasitic on law creatures or props?"

Chen Gou's heart suddenly brightened, and he felt that he was a big step closer to the truth.

But there is still one last layer of window paper that has not been pierced, and a real witness is needed......

Thinking of this, Chen Gou looked at Locke and asked, "Where is the place where the first strange thing happened in Fog City?"

Locke was taken aback: "Is it ...... Next door to the City Lord's Mansion. ”

Chen Gou suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "Is it next door, or is it in the City Lord's Mansion?!"

"When...... Next door, of course. Locke's voice stammered.

When Chen Gou saw him like this, he knew that he was lying, and sneered: "What about your father's city lord? It's been so long, I haven't even seen him once, it's a bit unreasonable, right?"

"This ......"

Locke's face collapsed, and he struggled for a few seconds before sighing in despair.

"I didn't expect the Abyss Knight to be so powerful. That's right, the first time did happen in the City Lord's Mansion, and the mutated one was my father's City Lord!"

"What?"

"Even the city lord has mutated?"

Everyone around them suddenly changed color in shock and exclaimed.

Only Chen Gou said calmly: "Take me to see him." ”

In fact, at first, he wasn't sure if the city lord had mutated, but he instinctively felt that the city lord had been sick and didn't see anything wrong with him...... This is very rude behavior for the Abyss Knight!

So he took advantage of the situation to trick Locke.

And Locke, the boy, really couldn't hide things, and after a little force, he shook everything out.

"We put my father in the underground prison of the City Lord's Mansion, and there is no way to do this, for fear of causing panic in the city, and then worrying...... The knight will think of him as an evil spirit. I can assure you that although my father has mutated, he has not acted in a hurtful way, but has become a little ...... Weird. ”

What's the weird law?

Chen Gou followed Locke back to the City Lord's Mansion and entered the underground prison, where he heard a voice talking to himself from a distance.

"This seat is the Great Priest of the Abyss, and now he canonizes my son Locke Bob as the lord of Star Luo Shatter Island, and the entire Star Luo Sea is his territory!"

"No, I'm the Pope, I'm going to move the Holy City to Kirishima to make Kirishima prosperous like never before, and from then on, the Kirishima Bob family will be promoted to the Holy Family!"

"Kirishima can't decay in my hands, I'm going to revitalize it and make it ten times more brilliant than twenty years ago, a hundred times more ......"

Until Chen Gou saw the city lord Colin Bob, he was still talking seriously by himself.

One moment the high priest, the other the pope, as if insane, but everything has one thing in common - it is to revitalize Kirishima and the Bob family.

"Father, this is the Silver Abyss Knight sent by the Holy See, and he has something to ask you. Locke said, knocking on the railing.

The city lord's attention was attracted, he glanced at Chen Gou, and snorted coldly: "Just a silver knight, don't you salute when you see this priest?"

Chen Gou smiled and said, "Do you really want me to salute you?"

The aura he felt from the city lord was obviously different from the mutated awakened person before, although the city lord was also crazy, his eyes were not red.

"Hey, don't be surprised, I really can't control myself, it seems like I'm controlling my body. ”

The city lord's tone suddenly changed, and he sighed and said, "I won't last long, it will be the same as before, if you have something to say, hurry up and ask." ”

Chen Gou didn't waste any time when he heard it, and said straight to the point: "How did you mutate, and what strange things happened at that time?"

The city lord replied, "I don't know how it mutated, but I just know that a bright light suddenly came down from the top of my head, and I became like this." ”

"Where did that light come from?"

"I didn't see it, but when the light faded, I saw a box flying away from mid-air, and I thought it was just an ordinary mist soul monster and didn't care. ”

"Box!"

Chen Gou's pupils shrank suddenly, and he asked, "What kind of box?"

The city lord gestured with his hand and said: "A wooden box of this size, it looks old, with strange patterns engraved on the surface, and a faint sandalwood fragrance......"

"Wooden Box, Sandalwood, Buddhist Gate, Purification, Relic, Mutated ......"

After getting the key information, Chen Gou connected the keywords one by one, and the final answer was about to come out.

A name comes to mind - the Treasure Box of the Hidden Scriptures!

This is the most important treasure in an old movie, and it is said that it has the power to predict the future......
