Chapter 121: The Shadow Stone
Jiang Yun followed Abby out of the mansion.
Abby suddenly said, "Thank you, sir." β
Jiang Yun knew what he was thanking for, and if he let Phil know that it was because he was quick to let Jiang Yun know about the deal, he would probably be whipped.
Jiang Yun shook his head, pointed at those medicine farmers and asked, "I know that ghosts will also come out to harm people during the day, why don't you let them leave." β
Abby glanced back and said, "These are all long-term workers who have signed a contract with the master, and if the master doesn't speak, no one can do anything." β
Jiang Yun suddenly understood.
risking his life and not letting the workers leave, Fair's hypocrisy has been lifted for the most part, but Jiang Yun doesn't care, completing the task to get the herb seeds is his goal, Jiang Yun has no interest in exposing the ugly face of the capitalists.
After walking around the manor for a while, Abby took Jiang Yun to a firewood house, and he said nervously, "This is where the workers first found out about the ghost's appearance, and it was in the house at that time. β
Jiang Yun pushed the door and was about to enter, when he saw Abby's hesitant face, he said, "You just wait for me outside." β
Abby said, "Thank you, sir!" β
Jiang Yu followed Jiang Yun into the house together.
There is nothing special in the house, but perhaps because no one dares to come in for a long time, and there is a horror factor, it always makes people feel eerie.
Jiang Yun checked it carefully, but found no traces, he turned around and was about to leave, when his heart suddenly moved.
Jiang Yun opened the Eye of True Vision, and in the exploration of the light of his eyeballs, he inspected the entire firewood room again.
Sure enough, his instincts were correct, and under the effect of the True Eye, a faint blue magical light was illuminated.
is a camouflage trap.
Although the Eye of True Vision was burst out by the level 7 Idar, its greatness is based on the Alchemy Arcana Rune Eye, and even many high-level characters may not be able to possess it.
It has helped Jiang Yun a lot of the time.
The Eye of True Vision itself has a disillusioning effect, and under the light it casts, a complex magical array is being dismantled bit by bit.
Finally, a white spar was left on the ground.
"Don't touch it, master!"
Jiang Yun was just about to reach out to pick it up, but Jiang Yu suddenly stopped him.
Then he saw that under the effect of the Eye of True Vision, another layer of hidden magic arrays slowly emerged!
This is a fire-based magic array, although the complexity is not as good as the previous camouflage trap, but the fire system already has a strong destructive ability, plus this is a firewood room, once triggered, I am afraid that the entire house will be burned immediately!
Jiang Yun couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, he immediately determined that this so-called ghost must be someone playing with ghosts, if it was a simple ghost revenge, how could such a thing be made!
The second layer of the magic array was also a trigger trap, and the Eye of True Vision quickly dismantled it completely, and Jiang Yun picked up the milky white spar, and his eyes jumped.
Lingering Stone: Normal, you can save a piece of footage into it, and it will be rebroadcast within a certain range after being triggered.
β¦β¦
It turns out that the so-called ghost is actually this kind of thing.
Jiang Yun finally understood why Abby said that this ghost could not be touched or touched, it was just a shadow, how could it be touched.
And the three workers it killed were probably the ones who set up this trap, and the ghosts always appeared......
From this point of view, it is very likely that this person is an inner ghost!
Jiang Yun put away the shadow stone and walked out of the firewood room.
Abby immediately stepped forward and asked, "Did you find anything?" β
Jiang Yun didn't answer, he shook his head and said, "You take me to other places to see." β
Abby answered.
Jiang Yun asked again on the way, "How much do you know about that transaction back then?" β
Since Jiang Yun didn't betray him before, Abby already had a certain trust in Jiang Yun.
He said cautiously, "I've only heard about it...... At first, the knight asked for a very high price, but the lord used some small tricks, and finally took it for a tenth of the price.
Reputedly...... It was the lord who made a game with the people in the casino, and almost killed the sir, and finally had to pay off the debt with the manor......"
Jiang Yun suddenly interjected, "How do you know so clearly?" β
Abby's eyes flashed, and she lowered her head and smiled: "My father is also a long-term worker in the master's family, and I have been following the master since I was six years old. β
Jiang Yun nodded.
The long-term workers in this world are actually similar to slaves, but they have a little more human rights than slaves, and the slave trade is expressly forbidden after all, and even if there is, they dare not say it openly.
In fact, most of them are the descendants of slaves, who sign lifelong contracts, and even have to work for the family for several lifetimes, and it is difficult to get rid of them without special circumstances.
Jiang Yun guessed that Abby was in this situation, he didn't ask, but said, "Do you know anything about that nobleman?" β
Abby said: "I only know that Sir Wells seems to have lost all the money not long after he sold the manor, and then there has been no news for a long time, but a few days ago there were sudden rumors that Sir Wells died, and the ghost also appeared at that time." β
Jiang Yun said: "Who was the first to send the news?" β
Abby said with a strange face: "It's not that someone has passed it on, but the first few people who saw the ghost recognized it as Sir Wells......"
Jiang Yun hurriedly said, "Where are those people now?" β
Abby said, "They are the three people who died. β
"......" Jiang Yun.
As she spoke, Abby led Jiang Yun to the place where the second ghost had appeared, and a foul smell hit her, which was the worker's hut.
Jiang Yun didn't like this, but he left Jiang Yu outside.
After going in and looking for a moment, Jiang Yun once again put a lingering stone into his pocket.
Next, Abby took Jiang Yun to find a few lingering stones in the backyard, the medicine field, and the back door of the mansion, and when he checked at one of the locations, Jiang Yun noticed something unusual.
That's a few footprints.
The footprints are embedded with a few broken grass roots, which are very inconspicuous.
Even if someone noticed these footprints, they couldn't detect anything at all, because they didn't have the True Eye, but in Jiang Yun's opinion, these footprints were right around the place where the Shadow Stone was hidden.
He picked up a piece of grassroots, and attributes automatically appeared in front of him.
γKwai Anγ
[Level: Normal]
γQuality:1γ
[Purpose: Can be used to craft healing potions]
β¦β¦
This is already a piece of herb whose efficacy has been completely destroyed.
Ordinary grade herbs can be found everywhere in this medicine garden, and no one cares if a worker accidentally steps on one of them.
It's just that it is so conspicuous in Jiang Yun's eyes.
