30. Follow the vine and touch the melon, they come to the door
What Li Nian didn't know was that not long after he left with the injured man, two new visitors were ushered in at the end of the inconspicuous alley.
If Li Nian is still there, he will definitely be able to recognize one of them, it is Wanli Gu Youli.
Different from the shrine maiden dress seen in the past, the girl is dressed in a shirt, a small suit, a ribbon at the neckline, a plaid skirt on the bottom, and a women's school uniform is the style of the general martial arts.
Li Nian glanced at the opening meeting, and he didn't look at all the teachers and students in the whole school, he didn't notice the little witch in the first-year freshman queue, so he didn't know that Wanli Gu Yuri was also a student of the general martial arts high school.
Wanli Gu Yuri, like Li Nian, should have been out of school not long ago, at this time she was supposed to return to the shrine and change into the clothes of a shrine maiden for her daily homework, but today she didn't go back, but because something happened here.
"Yes, it's right here, the breath left by the clouds in the sky is disappearing here."
She came to track Li Shunsheng.
Wan Ligu held an umbrella, his face was solemn, looking at the ground where the blood had not been completely washed away, and he understood that the masked man must have stayed here.
However, it seems that he was rescued.
"Yes...... Damn it...... Call...... Did you really run away? ”
There was also a young girl beside her, who stomped her feet with hatred when she saw this.
Originally, she was also a beautiful girl, but unlike Wanli Valley, who was neatly dressed next to her, she was panting, her hair was messy, her forehead was full of sweat, and her clothes were wet with rain, and she looked very embarrassed.
The girl was holding a long strip of cloth bag, which simply concealed a weapon, but if she had a little spiritual vision, she would definitely be able to detect the majesty that the divine soldiers below could not hide.
Her dress can still be seen to be that of a female high school student, but the style of the school uniform does not belong to any local high school.
This girl's name is Seichoin Ena, and she was originally ordered by the elders of the family to come from Kyoto to transport something to the Seven Guardian Shrine.
"Miss Seiqiuin...... Who are the people who attacked us......"
"How do I know!"
Qingqiu Yuan Hui said angrily.
Just now, when they were meeting with the shrine maiden of the Seven Male Shrines, Wanli Valley, to hand over the things, they were suddenly attacked by a group of people
Looking back on everything that happened, I still feel palpitations.
At the beginning, unconsciously, the masked man appeared beside him, and the moment he realized it, the sword light had already slashed.
It was really the most thrilling moment of her life, almost being slashed in the throat with a knife, if it weren't for her sharp instincts, quick reactions, and timely leaning back to dodge, she was afraid that she would die on the spot.
Even if he immediately subconsciously drew his sword and counterattacked fiercely, and in a fit of rage, he was merciless, piercing the attacker's abdomen on the spot, but the box of the transport had already been taken away, and the masked man immediately brandished a dagger, forcing Megumi to pull out his sword from him to block, and the sword left his body, and he covered the wound and took the box and immediately turned around and ran. At the same time, several more people rushed out from all sides and attacked the two girls.
Wanli Valley was dragged by his companions, knowing that the witch of the Seven Heroes Shrine could easily deal with it, Ena immediately got out and chased all the way, biting tightly, but he didn't expect to be used by the other party to dodge left and right by the crowd and buildings, and he still lost the target.
The masked man was so badly injured, I really don't understand why he can run so much, slippery and slippery,
Because she had no means of tracking, she had to go back to join the Wanli Valley, and with the help of her spiritual vision, when she found this place again, it had been a long time since she found it. Now it seems that it has been run away by the other party.
Qingqiu Yuan gritted his teeth.
"Youli, has Tian Congyun's sword qi really been completely removed?"
"Yes, it's completely [unseeable]."
"Damn...... Are there any accomplices? ”
That sword qi is not something that can be easily removed, who did it?
But now that he has been removed, he has to find another way to track down the man.
Ena looked at Wanli Valley and was about to ask if there was any other way, when she saw that she was looking around, showing a puzzled expression.
Huina's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "What new discoveries have you made?" ”
“…… There seems to be ...... There was a man who came. ”
When he said this, Wanli Valley seemed a little hesitant.
Speaking of which, it is true that the lord's mansion is nearby.
=====
Li Nian carefully looked at the stone in front of him.
Looking at the lustrous texture, it is said to be a stone, perhaps it is more appropriate to describe it as crystal.
There are no traces of polishing, and the edges and corners are natural, but even so, at first glance it will feel like a delicate thing, like some kind of artwork.
He was more concerned about other phenomena.
What ordinary people can't discern with the naked eye, he can see at a glance.
As soon as the box was opened, the stone began to spill out...... Something ominous.
"That's a ......"
Li Nian narrowed his eyes slightly.
He turned over to look at the outer wall of the box, he hadn't looked carefully before, but now he found that it was carved with a powerful sword-wielding figure, and the lines were carved around it, which played the effect of runes, which was applied inward and not exposed, and this kind of box should have a suppressive effect as a container.
Do you want to suppress the curse-stained artifact?
I reached out and tried to pick up the stone, but the moment I touched it, I retracted it like an electric shock.
"What the hell ......"
Shaking his hands vigorously as if he wanted to shake off some dirty thing, Li Nian pursed his lips in disgust.
Then he frowned and looked at the stone.
As soon as the eyes were closed and opened, they switched to spiritual vision.
As soon as the vision changes, the essence of the stone is clearly revealed.
It occupies a whole space centered on the stone, and the further it goes, the more it appears scarlet-stained pitch black, especially the location where the stone entity is located, which is even deeper and more invisible, and it feels very ominous when you look at it.
"It's not a good thing......
Where is this stone artwork, the evil sect is no longer at the level of "contaminated with a curse" to this extent, it is simply some kind of malicious crystal, right?
The lid snapped shut, sealing the stone back into the darkness, but not putting it back on the counter.
Holding the box in his hand and playing with it, his eyes fell on the unconscious masked man, and his gaze was a little more complicated.
It was right to take a suspicious look, it was really jewelry and other stolen goods, but this kind of thing could not be taken away, this was already within the scope of his duties, and such a dangerous thing must be handed over to the state...... Oh no, he's not the head of the processing bureau anymore...... It's time to leave it to the right people.
Or rather, put it in the hands of the right people.
Obviously, this thing has been suppressed before, and this box is proof that even if you don't ask the silver-haired girl, you can guess the cause and effect.
Who did the killer with the code name Black snatch this thing from, that person should be the caretaker of the box or something, and it was an industry insider with a spirit suit, and they had a fight, and this Li Shunsheng was pierced in the abdomen during the battle.
Speculate a little deeper, the reason why I didn't have time to do the bandaging was because I was chased and killed to the point that I didn't have that leisure, and I didn't have time to deal with the bleeding all the way......
Well......
He suddenly thought of the sharp breath that had remained in the wound.
…… No, is this guy really completely out of it?
Just as I was thinking about it, the doorbell rang.
