Chapter 151: The Secret in the Coffin
"What did you find?" Lucia's voice echoed over the cemetery. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info she couldn't understand how the difference in Louie's expression before and after could be so big, especially now, a smile appeared on Louie's face! This happened after Xuanyu nodded, Lucia didn't know when Xuanyu and Louie would be able to make friends to such an extent, and if she wanted to figure things out, she must not be confused This is one of her principles.
"What the hell is going on?" she asked again, this time Louie answering her.
"Lucia, you said earlier that tomb robbers are here to get rich, aren't they?"
"That's right!"
"Look at ...... then," Louis pointed to the inside of the coffin, "and what is there here that interests them?"
Following Louie's fingers, Lucia looked into the coffin, where there was nothing but Grace's body. Even the clothes Grace wore were shabby. Lucia understood at once, she clapped her hands and said, "It's the daughter of the earl's family, how can it be so simple?"
"The funeral was extravagant. "Louis Road.
"So......" Lucia's eyes rolled, "grafting?"
"Your IQ finally has a presence!" Xuanyu said, patting Lucia on the back of the head, "It's a kind of magic that can change other people's faces to the way you want." ”
"But I don't feel the magic message!" Lucia rubbed her head after being slapped by Jade.
"Of course, you don't feel it, but this kind of magic is called 'Soul Picking', and as the name suggests, it is magic that absorbs spiritual power from the object itself. Xuanyu explained.
Lucia shook her head confusedly: "What are you talking about, why can't I understand?"
Xuanyu shook his head and sighed: "Your IQ is really unpraised. From the sun, moon and stars, to the flowers, grasses, insects and ants, everything in the world has a spirit, and if there is a spirit, there is magic. But this spirit is too ordinary for people like you to notice. 'Soul picking' is the collection of the spirit of the corresponding object, and then fuse it together to finally turn into magic, this kind of magic is silent, the only drawback is that it is extremely slow to form. ”
"That means that if I forcibly open the coffin at the funeral, maybe I wouldn't see this face?" Louis said.
"If only you could do it. Xuanyu said, "Now it seems that you have to crack this magic, but this 'soul catching' technique is simple but not easy to crack. ”
"How?" said Lucia.
"Since it's a 'soul picking', you can only use the same method to crack it. Most magicians use their own spiritual powers, and they don't know much about ordinary objects. Xuanyu pointed to Grace's face in the coffin as she spoke, "This transfiguration technique is made by picking the aura of three things: Thousand Flower Grass, Deer Tail Owl, and Lotus Tree. ”
"I've never heard of any of these things...... Lucia was shocked.
"If you can't crack it with your own magic, how can you debunk it?" Louis reads.
Xuanyu smiled mysteriously, and then took out a small bottle from his arms, which contained a powdery substance: "Don't worry, I just prepared this ......"
Lucia snatched the small bottle and couldn't see anything famous left and right, and finally couldn't help asking, "What is this?"
"The powder made from the fish bones of the dry land human face is specially cracked the art of 'picking up the soul'. Xuanyu said with a smug smile.
Lucia blinked twice: "Wait, when I was looking for you yesterday, you were polishing something, wouldn't it be this?" ”
Xuanyu nodded.
"This thing has been prepared for a long time, don't tell me you can be a prophet!" Lucia said.
Xuanyu stretched out a finger and shook it back and forth in front of Lucia's eyes and said, "I'm a prophet of Xianbu, don't forget that I can calculate." ”
"The ghost believes you," Lucia pushed Xuanyu's hand away, "Okay, don't waste time, see the effect!"
Xuanyu sprinkled a part of the powder on the corpse's face, and at the same time gathered the spiritual power in the palm of his hand, sending spiritual power to the scattered powder, and soon, the powder began to melt and seep into the surface of the corpse. The skin peeled off like ripples of water, revealing its original appearance.
"It's her!" Louie let out a low snort, she subconsciously covered her mouth, frowned, and stared at the person in the coffin.
"Do you know?" asked Xuanyu.
Louis hesitated for a moment, Xuanyu could see her clenching teeth, and finally she made up her mind to speak: "Actually, I don't know her, I saw her in Grace's room, but at that time she was already a corpse." ”
"No wonder she is in such a hurry to be buried," Lucia glanced into the coffin, and from the extent of the decomposition of the corpse, it could be inferred that she had been dead for some time, "otherwise, I am afraid that I will not be able to let it go!"
"What the hell is going on here!" Louis angrily punched the lid of the coffin.
After a few seconds of silence, still the lazy voice, or the nonchalant tone, Xuanyu said faintly: "Then go and check......" He raised his head and looked at the bright moon in the sky, "There is still a period of time before dawn." ”
This sentence reminded Louie, and the momentary grief and anger made her forget her original intention: "Yes, this matter needs to be investigated!" She cheered up again, "Since it's not Grace here, then she must still be in that place!"
The corners of Lucia's mouth went up: "It's finally time for the main event!"
Louis smiled and nodded, but in an instant, the clouds were gloomy: "But we have to restore this place first, so as not to startle the snake!"
"You don't have to rush this, just leave it to Lucia!" Xuanyu turned to Lucia with a smile, casually touching her eyebrows.
Lucia only felt a wave of energy rising from the dantian, but she didn't know what Xuanyu's intentions were, and when she just wanted to argue, she saw a flash of light and shadow in Xuanyu's deep pupils, and she understood in an instant. Her eyes wandered, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and her demeanor was like Xuanyu.
After leaving Lucia in the cemetery, Louis left with Xuanyu. Their destination was the courtyard where Grace was imprisoned, and although they had entered through a secret passage in the Count's Court last time, Louis knew the general location of the courtyard. This time she was going to enter directly through the main entrance. On the one hand, it is too troublesome to sneak into the Earl's Court again, and on the other hand, with the help of Xuanyu by his side, he can always be more open-handed.
This was Louie's calculation, but what she didn't expect was that when she took Xuanyu all the way north, groping the route in her memory to reach the vicinity of the courtyard, she got lost! To be precise, she couldn't find the location of the courtyard, and kept spinning in place. Finally, when it turned to the third lap, Xuanyu grabbed her.
"It's an enchantment!" Xuanyu said as he looked around, "If you don't crack it, you won't be able to find it in your life." ”
Listening to Xuanyu's words, Louis also looked around, there was only a wilderness around him, the moonlight was sultry, there was the chirping of insects in the grass, and from time to time there were signs of small animals shuttling between them during the day and night. The air was moist and there was a cool breeze blowing through my face. It's so normal that no one would think of any enchantment.
"Even I ...... fooled" seemed to read the doubts in Louie's heart, Xuanyu said softly, "I didn't react until just now, I really used the 'Spirit Extraction' technique!"
"'Spirit' again?" Louis said.
"I can't see the enchantment ...... at all" Xuanyu's eyes sharpened, "I'm afraid that I don't have such an ability, or ......" His tone became more and more solemn, "It's an opponent that I have to be careful!"
