"Let me go! You can't do this! This is an abusive lynching, and you have no right to do it!"

The mournful wails kept coming, but at this time, the onlookers were all indifferent.

In the center of the noise, Ah Yong was commanding everyone with a gloomy face to tie up Wang Daqi and erect it on a wooden stake in front of the clearing.

"Wang Daqi, now all the evidence points to you, we will tie you up for one night, if there is really a demon beast to make trouble, its highest priority target must be you, a person who has no power to resist, right? But you don't have to worry, if this is the case, you can be regarded as proving your innocence, and we will naturally save you." But if you're the murderer...... Then tonight, maybe we can get a good night's sleep. ”

"You can't do that...... It's creating an opportunity for the killer...... Murderer! The murderer will definitely kill people!" Wang Daqi struggled violently, and the ghost cried wolf howling even harder, shaking the wooden stakes.

Ah Yong frowned: "You keep saying that the murderer is the murderer, I'll give you another chance, you say, who is the murderer?"

Wang Daqi's eyes widened, the corners of his mouth opened in an extremely exaggerated arc, and he gasped for breath. But soon, his gaze gradually turned from extreme anger to emptiness, as if he had given up struggling: "I...... I don't know, I don't know anything......"

Ah Yong shook his head in hatred, and waved his hand at everyone: "Tonight is on duty, you must keep an eye on me here!"

The few people who were ordered all agreed, but when the crowd slowly dispersed, the muttering sound one after another was relieved.

"This time I can finally stop for one night!"

Obviously, in the eyes of everyone, Wang Daqi is the murderer. And now that he has been controlled, the tight string in their hearts can finally relax.

Su Yanmo held his forehead with one hand and walked hurriedly. In the shadow of the moonlight, the gauze had been dyed red, and the blood flowed uncontrollably, cutting across the corners of the eyes and twisting into two strange arcs.

"Yan Mo, your wound ......" Yin Ze on the side looked at him worriedly, "How do you feel that you are getting worse and worse?"

This sentence also aroused the side eyes of many people, Su Yanmo secretly cursed in his heart, and on the surface, he could only pretend to smile casually: "Maybe it's because in the past, I used to use the most expensive pills at home, and now I use those stalls, and I'm not used to it." ”

Everyone laughed when they heard this, laughing at him for being really pampered by the eldest young master, Yin Ze was injured more seriously than him at the beginning, isn't it almost better now?

Su Yanmo also laughed a few words with him, and was about to leave quickly, when Zhou Yuyan grabbed him.

"I'll show you this. ”

Su Yanmo wanted to refuse, but Zhou Yuyan couldn't help but say, and sat down on the ground according to him, and at the same time used his spiritual power to carefully scan his wounds. During this period, Su Yanmo's expression became more and more uncertain.

Finally, Zhou Yuyan came to a conclusion: "You are over-lucky." Helping him to stand up, he told him again: "Since you have injuries on your body in the future, don't work so hard in your cultivation." ”

Su Yanmo's eyes were still shrouded in an undissipating haze, and he responded a little stiffly: "Thank you." Shake off Yin Ze's support and hurried away.

Ye Shuo was also frowning and looking at his back. Excessive exercise...... I really can't see that this eldest young master will have such a hard work? Although, I still feel that there is something wrong......

Nothing was said all night.

As everyone expected, there were no more so-called demon beast attacks that night.

And in this way, Wang Daqi is the cunning murderer, and it is also a certainty.

Early in the morning, everyone didn't care about washing, and they all rushed to check on Wang Daqi early, and they had to settle an account with him!

But the anger of the crowd was instantly extinguished when they rushed to the stake.

What they saw was the corpse of Wang Daqi.

Wang Daqi died straight on the stake in such a posture of five flowers and big ties. A trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, his eyes were still unwillingly protruding, and his face was full of fear, as if he had suffered extreme fright before he died. Also around him, there are also a large number of claw marks.

This death is really miserable, and everyone is "groaning" in their hearts.

Since he had been recognized as a murderer, no one was willing to confirm his safety, and the few men on the shift never did their duty.

Because of their ignorance, and because of their negligence, a living person died in the mouth of the demon beast.

These "judges" are actually accomplices and murderers.

At this time, everyone was secretly remorseful, and at the same time, they were also reflecting on why they were like ghosts last night, and no one even objected to this matter.

But some people also pointed out that although Wang Daqi is dead, those incriminating evidence still cannot be erased. Maybe he committed suicide in fear of sin, and after his death, he was coincidentally attacked by demon beasts, but in fact, he was not so innocent.

There may be no way to know what the truth is.

Whether it was really a demon beast making trouble, or the whole process was planned by Wang Daqi, and finally reaped the consequences...... In short, things are getting more and more confusing.

……

On this day, the ranks dispersed again.

Ye Shuo was following Qingxiang Xiong's instructions, crossing mountains and valleys, and heading towards the southeast.

A moment ago, Qingxiang Bear suddenly withdrew from his meditative state and told him that if he kept going southeast, he would encounter good things.

Ye Shuo couldn't believe the prophecy of this unscrupulous pet beast anymore, but this time Qingxiang Xiong repeatedly assured him that it was definitely a good thing, and it would be a series of good things, and patted his chest to guarantee that "his prediction has never been so accurate."

"Okay then, I'll trust you one more time, ......one last time," Ye Shuo muttered all the way, brushing aside the dead vines that were hanging in front of him.

Ye Shuo didn't expect that Qingxiang Xiong's prophecy would bring him an unwarranted disaster.

He would never have imagined that the real murderer, who had been hidden until now, would appear in front of him in such a form.

……

The dagger stabbed deeply into Yin Ze's abdomen, and a large area of blood splashed out, falling to the ground bit by bit, like a cluster of poignant red plums.

The other end of the dagger was tightly held in Su Yanmo's hand at this time.

In his eyes, there was a deeply suppressed hatred.

"Hmm...... Yan Mo, why?" Yin Ze gasped with difficulty, "We have always been good brothers......

Just a moment ago, Su Yanmo pointed not far away and exclaimed, Yin Ze thought that he had seen a demon beast, so he hurriedly turned his head, and at this moment, a dagger suddenly stabbed in without warning.

Yin Ze couldn't believe that the person who wanted his life turned out to be the best brother in his heart.

"Don't you even know why I hate you?" Su Yanmo's eyes gradually turned blood-red, and the arm holding the dagger couldn't help trembling, as if he was the one who was betrayed and hurt.

"Good brother, hehe......" Su Yanmo sneered, and couldn't stop it, "Since we are brothers, why do you want to take away what I love?!"

Yin Ze raised his head in a daze: "Are you talking about Banxia?I, I don't know what you ...... to her" The wound in his abdomen made him bend down in pain, "Besides, we are in love, Banxia she just treats you as a cousin......"

This sentence suddenly made Su Yanmo even more crazy: "Shut up! So you should die! As long as you die, the person who is happy with her is gone, she will naturally belong to me!" The dagger was withdrawn, and it was stabbed in one after another, back and forth more than a dozen times, until Yin Ze's figure had fallen down, Su Yanmo wiped a handful of blood on his face, and smiled contentedly.

"Hehe, Banxia will belong to me......" The corners of Su Yanmo's mouth twitched, his face twitched, and his body couldn't help twitching as if he had been electrified, and the whole person seemed to be suffering from madness, and he only read this sentence over and over again. Only the smile soaked in blood is becoming more and more hideous and terrifying.

After a long time, the blood-stained dagger quietly landed on the ground, making a crisp "ding-" sound. Su Yanmo also followed forward, his left hand stiffly supporting the tree trunk, and his right hand slowly raised, wiping the blood on his face very gently. That delicate movement, as if what he was doing now, was to put the finishing touches on a work of art.

Every drop of blood was splashed when he assassinated Yin Ze, and even his face was stained with blood spots. Now this cleaning work is like erasing the last traces of Yin Ze left in this world.

Su Yanmo always had a smile on his face, it was a smile that belonged to a murderer, which was enough to make people feel creepy. Maybe it's because the rival who has held a grudge for many years is finally gone, or even in the process itself, he can get a strange pleasure.

It wasn't until the whole face was wiped back that Su Yanmo's wandering gaze also fell on Yin Ze's corpse again, and his pupils jumped a few times, and he re-condensed into focus.

"It's time to finish......" Su Yan muttered to himself as he took off his bloody clothes and threw them to the ground.

It's just an ordinary Wild Walker Cloak, which can be found everywhere in the town, and can be counted as one of the basic equipment for adventurers. The function of the cloak is roughly to shield from wind, sand, rain and snow, or to cope with the special environment in the mountains. Let's just say that in the current adventure team, in addition to Ye Shuo, it can be said that there is also one hand.

Su Yanmo was also far-sighted, and only put on his cloak after leaving the team, and then disposed of it after he was done. In the end, even if the bloody clothes are discovered, they will not have anything to do with him.

The shadows of the trees are blurred, and the bright colors of a little metal reflect the sunlight, swirling through the empty mountains.

Standing in front of Yin Ze's corpse, Su Yanmo raised his hand with one hand, holding a giant hook and claw. That blade-like blade was no different from the claws of a demon beast.

The plan has been carried out to the last step, and all that remains is to disguise it all as the work of demon beasts...... Su Yanmo's five fingers tightened fiercely, pinched the hook and was about to swing down, not far behind him, a burst of dead branches suddenly sounded.

Su Yanmo reflexively turned around, and just happened to meet Ye Shuo, who was hiding next to the trunk.

"Sure enough, the murderer is really you. Ye Shuo stared at him, took the initiative to turn out from behind the trunk, and stepped in front of him step by step.

"......" Su Yanmo didn't say a word, his face was like ashes, his fists tightened and loosened, and the spiritual power fluctuations around his body also gathered and scattered, as if he was planning to kill with one blow. But at the same time, he can't help but take into account the real strength gap between himself and the other party.

If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move, Ye Shuo just stared at him lightly, and he didn't show any vigilance.

Finally, Su Yanmo seemed to have calculated the stakes, and he also made a choice at the same time. immediately fell to his knees with a thud, and hugged Ye Shuo's legs with tears in his eyes.

"Please...... Don't talk about it! I ...... It's all my momentary obsession, and now I regret it! Please, please...... I'll promise you whatever you want......"

A hint of playfulness flashed in Ye Shuo's eyes. I have to say that this Su Yanmo is really a smart person, he knows how to judge the situation very well, and knows that if he really dares to do it just now...... Now, his life is long gone.

"I'm not interested in your emotional entanglements. After a while, Ye Shuo spoke coldly.

He was behind the tree just now, and he heard everything he should have heard. Knowing the grievances between Su Yanmo and Yin Ze, it is nothing more than that Su Yanmo likes his cousin Banxia, but Banxia and Yin Ze are in love, so Su Yanmo will be jealous and hateful, and he wants to kill Yin Ze. This kind of bloody triangular drama is something he has been listening to in the book for a long time.

"However, I'd love to hear your modus operandi, and would you mind telling me how you've committed your crimes these days?"

Seeing Su Yanmo hesitate, Ye Shuo sneered: "You should have been preparing this plan for a long time, right?

Su Yanmo couldn't figure out Ye Shuo's thoughts, but this sentence really resonated with him. Perhaps it is not easy for the murderer to let them rot a seamless plan in their stomachs.

"yes...... I wanted to kill Yin Ze for a long time. Su Yanmo spoke, although trembling, but from his voice, it was still not difficult to hear a trace of pride.

"I've thought about all kinds of plans, but I can't kill him in the middle of the division...... That's why I took advantage of the vacation this time to pull him into the adventure team. Before I left, I thought that I would have to kill a lot of people at the same time...... In this way, it is possible to create a feeling of indiscriminate attack by demon beasts. Otherwise, there are so many people in the adventure team, and in the end, Yin Ze died, isn't that strange?"

Just to create "no difference", in order to cover up his crimes, he killed so many innocent people, what did he think of human life? Although in his heart, Ye Shuo had already disgusted Su Yanmo to the extreme, and on the surface, he still patiently asked: "Then, what about those strange visions? How did you do it?"

This sentence seemed to ask Su Yanmo's most proud point. Regardless of the people in front of him, he slowly straightened up, and the perfect nobility and calmness appeared on his face again.

"It's an illusion! It's an illusion!"

Su Yanmo turned his head slightly, and the corners of his mouth set off an elegant arc.

"I'm an illusionist. ”
