The skeleton of the flesh and blood is blurred, and above the skeleton, the pain wail of the human head.

A scene that can only be seen in hellish nightmares, and at this moment, it is really in front of me. I couldn't tell if it was my heart beating in my chest or the golden heart.

For a moment, I panicked, and I felt like the panic was out of control.

Fortunately, the bloody and blurred image was always there, which made me panic and fear, but also warned me that I was dealing with demons, and if I was not careful, the person in the vat would be me.

"Is he beautiful?" The voice of the devil drilled into my ears.

"I can't see where the beauty is." I turned around and looked into Zuo Yuan's eyes: "I look at that person, it seems that he won't live long." Is this your method of questioning? ”

"It's not a forced question, I got what I wanted a long time ago."

"I don't understand."

Zuo Yuan snapped his fingers, and the swarm of insects on the ground suddenly began to squirm in our direction, but their number seemed to be getting smaller and smaller, I looked closely, and when the swarm approached a certain range, I saw it clearly, it turned out that they were devouring each other. Eventually, only one black worm crawled to Zuo Yuan's feet, crawled up his body along his trouser legs, and finally got into his ears.

"Information is available before you come. It's just that he was very uncooperative just now, so I'll punish him a little. Zuo Yuan opened his mouth, and an earthworm-like flesh worm came out of his mouth, was put in his palm, and moved in front of me, "This is a heart-devouring Gu that can devour and copy memories." It's just a one-time consumable. I didn't want to use it, but he still had a hard mouth, so I couldn't help it, so I used this thing. Although the harvest was abundant, I still had some losses, so I was very unhappy. ”

"Then you're really grumpy."

As soon as I finished speaking, the flesh and bones over there just collapsed, and its head rolled twice in my direction, and when it landed, its eyes were just in my direction, and it didn't bat at all.

"From the memories in the Heart Devouring Gu, I can see that Du Youlan took a lot of things from him, including medicine and worms, but I don't know what exactly I did. That woman's tricks were mysterious and elusive. Kaduo and Du Youlan have always had a close relationship, and before this time they got the goods, the two had frequent contact, and Du Youlan had been preparing to go to a place a long time ago, and had been preparing. Now it seems that she is ready, of course, it may be forced to be helpless, after all, her previous Gu King has been lost. And it is said that in that place, you can find a more powerful one. ”

"Where?"

"Ratam, the Church of the Dark Covenant."

Ratham?

Therethere again, it seems that this is not a coincidence.

But beyond that, I also cared about one other thing, "Church? I asked Zuo Yuan, "Why do you go to church?" And the name of this church is a bit strange. ”

"The church may not be what you imagined."

"Tell me about it."

Ninety percent of the population of the country believes in this sect.

But judging from Zuo Yuan's objective tone, he should not believe it. He is not of Southeast Asian descent, he is not a native of Latin America, and judging by his name and face, he is more like an East Asian.

"You just now, it seems that you mentioned the Gu King?"

"Du Youlan" went to find the Gu King, I think this is the point at the moment.

"Yes, it's the Gu King."

"I don't understand, what is the difference between this thing of the Gu King and ordinary Gu worms? Aren't they something you shamans created? Could it be that this thing also has wild ones? ”

"That's a bit complicated, you seem interested?"

"I'm a little interested in everything related to Du Youlan."

Zuo Yuan thought for a moment, "The Gu King is not wild, but it will continue to evolve in the body of the Gu Master, and it will be strong to a certain extent, if it is separated from the Gu Master, or if the Gu Master dies, they can still save their lives." The Covenant of Darkness is an old church built about 150 years ago, and it is said that the believer who founded the church was a powerful shaman. After his death, the church contained his former Gu King. ”

After speaking, Zuo Yuan's expression hesitated for a moment, and he didn't seem to know whether what he said was true or false.

Then he added: "Du Youlan seems to be very researched about this matter, but I don't know. But in his memory, Du Youlan revealed more than once that he was going there soon. Zuo Yuan's gaze turned to the human head on the ground.

"So, you mean, we're going too?" I asked.

I can't wait.

Zuo Yuan looked up at me, a sharp color flashed in his eyes, "What do you say?" Of course, maybe she didn't care about this head at all, and the memory given to him was also deliberately left. It's a trap to lure me through. But even so, I'll go. ”

This answer is satisfying to me.

But at the same time, I wondered, "Why?" I asked.

What I'm curious about is the deep hatred between Zuo Yuan and Du Youlan. I want to know why Zuo Yuan's half face was destroyed by Du Youlan.

"Lead me over, she will at least be there, as long as she is here, as long as I find her, it will be enough."

Zuo Yuan's persistence when he said this made me feel as if I was facing a mirror.

Then he suddenly tapped me on the shoulder, and this time he was caught off guard, "Then it's up to you, you said that you are the only person in the world who can kill her." ”

The corners of his mouth rose to a very strange angle, and the side face of the skeleton was close to my ear, and he said slowly, "I believe in you." ”

"Then she is indeed Du Youlan."

I raised my hand and grabbed his wrist that had landed on my shoulder.

We looked at each other for a few seconds, and the smile on Zuo Yuan's face gradually disappeared: "She is Du Youlan." ”

"It doesn't matter if it's you or not, I don't care if I say it now, when I find her, there will naturally be an answer."

"But I suddenly had an idea." Zuo Yuan shook off my hand, stood up, and distanced himself from me, "If that person is both Du Youlan I am looking for and the person you are looking for, what will you do at that time?" ”

I don't know why, but I feel a little uncomfortable saying this.

It's inexplicably uncomfortable.

I can only answer: "Find it and talk about it." ”

"Hehehe......" he laughed and asked, "Will you turn against her and help her kill me?" ”

I don't have an answer to that question.

Zuo Yuan didn't prepare to listen, he sent me away directly, and told me that I would leave for Ratam tomorrow.

But along the way, I was upset because of his last few questions. My gut tells me that I am actually underestimating this person......

"He doesn't seem to have been deceived by me at all." I sat down next to Yao Qianwen's bed, who was pretending to be asleep.

She rolled over and got up, "Then you can come back alive?" Oh yes, what are you doing? It scared the hell out of me! ”

I recounted the incident to Yao Qianwen, and then looked into her slightly confused eyes, "He may not have been deceived by me, but ...... He seems to need me too. We're not in danger for the time being, but I don't know what's going to happen next. What exactly he thinks, I haven't guessed yet. ”

There are no answers to these questions for the time being, but at this moment, facing Yao Qianwen, I have more important questions: "Let's not talk about these first." Let's talk about something else, Du Youlan and Mina, you've probably met, so, you lied to me? ”

"Huh?" Yao Qianwen was stunned for a moment, and immediately relieved herself: "I, no!" ”

"Then why are you hesitating?"

"I was thinking, the Mina-san I've seen is really a little strange......"

"Where?"

Yao Qianwen's expression became complicated, as if she was trying to figure out how to describe it to me, but her brain power was not enough to describe it clearly. After holding it for a long time, he said something like this to me: "Although I have only met Sister Mina once, she is still in the jar...... Still, like many of the people I've met since...... I, I feel like I've been seeing her every day since then. ”

"What are you talking about?" Yao Qianwen's description completely confused me.

What do you mean, like many people I've seen since?

"Oh I ...... I don't know what I'm talking about! Okay, let's not talk about it, won't you set off tomorrow, and when you see her, you can ask yourself. ”

Yao Qianwen turned over and pretended to be asleep.

But I couldn't lie down.

I kept repeating what Yao Qianwen said in my head, and I was really confused at first, and I really didn't understand.

But suddenly I thought of Zuo Yuan's words: To control the corpse puppet, you need a certain range, and the corpse puppet cannot be controlled without the range.

Take control of the puppet.

The entire nameless village is Du Youlan's corpse puppet, and the people Yao Qianwen sees every day are not real people.

She also said that everyone is like Mina......

In fact, it is saying that Mina also has the common denominator in those corpse puppets. And everyone in the village is controlled by Du Youlan alone.

That's what everyone she saw had in common!

"Impossible...... You get up for me! I turned around and yelled at Yao Qianwen's bed, this was not what I should do, but at that moment, I couldn't control myself at all.

Zuo Yuan's brutality, gloom, and elusiveness can calm myself down in the face of these, and even in the face of imminent death, I can force myself to abandon my fear and think calmly.

But now, I can't do it.

Yao Qianwen's body was trembling, curled up, and hugged the thin quilt tightly, but she just didn't turn around.

"Are you pretending to be asleep or pretending to be dead?"

"Uncle, I'...... That's what I'll say...... Are you overthinking? ”

"You're pretty stupid, I thought you couldn't think of anything wrong with what you said."

"Oops......" Yao Qianwen hugged her head, "I'll just say an idea, I happen to give you a hint, there is a debtor and a debtor, if there is any problem, you can go to Du Youlan, isn't she next to you!" ”

Yao Qianwen's words reminded me.

Du Youlan, by my side.

I turned around slowly, and my eyes fell little by little on Lan Lan, who was still in a coma.

If Mina is really just a corpse puppet controlled by her, then, that is to say, in the ghost market before, she deliberately released Mina to seduce me. It may also be that someone who noticed Zuo Yuan and lured Zuo Yuan. But in any case, Du Youlan did not have amnesia at that time.

Now that I think about it, this hypothesis is highly likely. In Du Youlan's basement before, Lan Lan was always able to open the mechanism at a critical moment and find the secret door.

These are not necessarily coincidences.

And if that's the case, this woman is really first-class in acting. But the most terrifying thing is not acting. She is like a chess player who stays out of things, and everything she sees in her eyes is a pawn on her chessboard. In fact, I should have thought that with Yao Qianwen's ability, she might steal Du Youlan's Gu King so easily?

No way.

Unless, from then on, it was Du Youlan's intention.
