Chapter 17: A Confusing Situation
Su Ke didn't leave the house in a hurry, he had to guard against the Lan family.
Although Lan is an ordinary player, her performance is really a bit mysterious, which faintly makes Su Ke feel that things are not so simple.
During the day, she had a private meeting with Li Gui on the mountain, and what they said showed that she was an ordinary player outside the development of a thief, not to mention her, what made Su Ke suspicious was her temperament.
She just had an affair with Li Gui on the mountain, so Li Gui was her accomplice in the end. It is understandable to share a bed with his eldest brother at home, they are husband and wife on the surface, but during the day, after seeing him, the Lan family seduced him, which made Su Ke puzzled, because this was not in line with the cautious temperament that the Lan family showed on the mountain before.
She knew that the Zhang Shun body I occupied was the Yin soldier candidate for the dragon head, but she still had to do the very accident-prone behavior of leading me to bed, how could this be explained? Su Ke was puzzled.
In order to avoid any accidents, before going out, Su Ke was furnished with quilts, looking like someone was sleeping in it from a distance, and then walked to the door, tied a strand of hair behind the door, and then sprinkled a thin layer of fine sand on the ground, if someone came in, the opponent's footprints could be easily left on the ground.
But he himself did not go through the door, but jumped out of the window gently, and after jumping out, he also tied a strand of hair behind the window.
After doing all this, Su Ke dived lightly to the fence wall behind the house, and the old yellow dog under the eaves heard the movement, raised his head and looked, and saw that it was his master, so he lowered his head and closed his eyes to rest.
Su Ke walked all the way to the fence wall, and was about to climb over the wall, but his body suddenly stopped, and he found that something was wrong.
There is nothing abnormal about the fence wall itself, but the temperature above the wall is a little abnormal, and you can faintly feel a thin wall of air when you reach out, and the temperature is about one or two degrees higher than the surroundings, showing a slight warmth.
"There's an enchantment! Very low power, it should be used for detection! Su Ke was shocked, and hurriedly retracted his hand, but his eyes turned to look at the east room where the eldest brother was, in his mind, the only one who had a reason to have the opportunity to do so was the Lan family.
The windows of the east room were closed, and he couldn't see the situation inside, so Su Ke closed his eyes, moved his ears slightly, and listened carefully.
There were two breathing sounds in the east room, one thick and one thin, one high and one low, both of which were very uniform and deep, it was the eldest brother and Lan, both of whom were asleep.
"Not Lan's? Who would that be? Su Ke frowned slightly, he carefully walked around the fence courtyard wall, and found that this layer of heat flow wall was everywhere, the heat flow surrounded the entire courtyard, and if you wanted to go out, you had to pass through the heat flow.
As long as I make any moves on this barrier, my opponent will be able to sense it, and he will know that there is an abnormality here, so he may rush over to check it out, and I will wait for the rabbit! ”
Thinking like this, Su Ke went to the firewood room and took a woodcutter to tie it to his waist, and then jumped over the fence wall, and naturally passed through the heat flow barrier halfway.
When he arrived outside the courtyard, Su Ke didn't stop, and immediately hid in a hidden corner, his eyes fixed on his own yard, and his perception was also fully open. He wanted to see what was sacred in his house!
Su Ke's patience is very good, time passes minute by minute, and he waits for an hour.
To his surprise, no one showed up at all, and the village was as calm as ever, not even a dog barked.
In the courtyard, the eldest brother's house was also quiet, and the Nalan clan had been asleep without any abnormalities.
Su Ke couldn't help frowning: "I guessed wrong, isn't it the detection enchantment?" Or is the other party's hiding ability better than me, and he came quietly and found me, but I didn't find him? ’
He only admits that the other party has a high hiding ability, as for whether he can fight? Whether it's his opponent or not, that's only known when you really fight.
'I guess it's not my opponent, otherwise he would have come out and meet me earlier.' ’
He looked up at the sky, it was already late in the evening (21:00 to 22:59), and he decided not to wait any longer, and to get down to business, so he ran in the direction of the mass grave.
And the mysterious guy who secretly set up an enchantment and might be watching him from the dark, Su Ke decided to ignore it.
'Guy who likes to hide his head and tail, hide it, when you show up!' Su Ke smiled coldly, and then in his actions, he just had to be cautious.
There is no moon tonight, but the sky is full of stars, after Su Ke's potential is stimulated, his eyesight is extremely strong, although the sky is dim, it does not affect his vision at all, and he is moving fast.
The mass grave is located on the fifteen-mile road west of Zhangjia Village, and all the bandits buried in it were exterminated by the officers and soldiers of Hengxian County, to which Zhangjia Village belonged, and the number was more than 200, all of whom had their heads cut off and their bodies were discarded indiscriminately.
After a few years, the mass grave has become an obscure and sinister place in the mouth of the surrounding villagers, and all kinds of terrifying legends have been spread, which can stop children from crying at night.
Fifteen miles, Su Ke only took ten minutes, which was because he had conserved his physical strength and was always vigilant along the way.
In front of the mass grave, it looks like a large dirt slope from a distance, there are several circles of tall pine trees around the soil slope to block Su Ke's vision, and he can't see the situation inside.
'Wow~'
Suddenly, the wind rose, and the vague shadows of the trees around the mass grave shook, like tall ghosts, and the wind blew across Su Ke's face, cold and gloomy, mixed with an indescribable smell, which at once could be reminiscent of 'incense, sacrificial wine and meat, lit gold and silver paper', and other things related to the dead.
Su Ke was stunned for a while, and suddenly saw a floating green light in front of him, flashing and flashing, like eyes.
It is a ghost fire, also called phosphorus fire, the phosphorus that runs out of the bones after death meets the air and begins to burn and form, the favorite appears in mass graves, if ordinary people meet it, it is definitely a fart and urine.
Su Ke was naturally not afraid, he was vigilant all around, and quietly approached the mass grave.
At this time, Su Ke didn't know that in the heavenly court above the nine heavens, two pairs of eyes were staring at him tightly.
"Did you find anything unusual?" What spoke was black impermanence, he kept his eyes off the light screen for a moment, and always looked at Su Ke's eyes, in these eyes, he couldn't see a trace of emotion, only the indifference of focus and confidence, past experience told him that such a person was the most difficult.
"Not for the time being, the burning potential strengthens the body, activates the mana, and then starts to probe, he behaves decently." Clairvoyance is the name of the profession, and his gaze is also unwavering, and after looking at it for a while, he frowned slightly: "But as a second-order warlock, he seems too calm when he encounters so many abnormal situations in the mountain village." ”
"I think so too, but it's just speculation, not evidence. Forget it, let's keep watching. Black Impermanence sighed.
In the mortal world, Su Ke had already crossed the pine wood to the edge of the mass grave, which was overgrown with weeds, and after walking a few steps forward, he could occasionally see a tattered open-air wooden coffin, or a mound of earth that had been cut open by wild beasts, and in these mounds he could often see rotting corpses that had been gnawed all over the place, and a pungent putrid smell made Su Ke frown.
In such a place, ordinary people will never come alone if they have nothing to do, even if they want to bury someone, they will come together, bury it and leave, never stay long, if there is a criminal who is brave enough to hide here day and night, it is absolutely safe.
Su Ke's purpose in coming here tonight was just to investigate, and the weapon in his hand was just a woodcutter, so he walked cautiously, once he realized that something was wrong, he would definitely not hesitate when it was time to run.
The mass grave was about two hundred meters in radius, Su Ke walked very slowly, and after more than ten minutes, he arrived at the hinterland of the mass grave, there was a curved angle in front of him, and he walked around lightly, and a trace of swaying fire jumped into Su Ke's perspective.
In the middle of the night, there was a candle flame in the mass grave, either a monster or a monster!
Su Ke was shocked, and his hand grasped the handle of the firewood knife for the first time.
