"Wood! Move...... It's moving! ”

The table in the middle began to move slowly, and I pulled Shen Muhan behind me and stared at the table nervously, for fear that there would be some kind of mechanism here. It may be that I have experienced too much during this time, Shen Muhan is now scared when she sees inexplicable things, and I can clearly feel Shen Muhan trembling in my back.

The table moved some distance more towards us before it stopped, and a child came out from behind the table, saluted me, and said, "Your honor, you have been frightened!" ”

The child in front of him didn't look very old, and he should be about the same as Ah Yun, and he still maintained a saluting posture after speaking, as if waiting for me to speak. I stared at the child for a while, and it didn't seem that there was any conspiracy, and there was nothing unusual around, so I patted Shen Muhan's hand on my arm and took a step forward.

"Little friend, have you seen the village chief?" I kept my distance from the child, but I was still a little guarded.

"Noble! Please follow me! The child did not straighten up, but turned and pointed behind the desk.

I took two more steps forward and saw a hole in the ground behind the desk, which was supposed to be open because the table had been moved. I walked to the edge of the cave and looked down, and there was a long staircase leading to the ground, and it was very bright inside, but I couldn't see what was down there.

Seeing me standing at the entrance of the cave, the child hesitated, walked straight to me, saluted me again, raised his head, and said, "Noble, come with me." After saying that, regardless of whether I followed or not, he turned around and walked down the stairs. I looked at the back of the child, and I was a lot less guarded, if it was a trap, I couldn't throw myself into it first, right? After making up my mind, I called Shen Muhan to follow.

When we reached the end of the stairs, the child was standing by the stairs waiting, and the situation below was far beyond my imagination, I did not expect that there was such a large space under the small cabin above, and there were several rooms, I counted them carefully, there were eight of them, arranged in a circle, in the middle was a circular altar-like thing, and there was a chair on it, very similar to the one I had sat on at the ceremony before, only much larger.

"Kid, where is the village chief?" I looked around, and I couldn't see the whole hall except in the room, and there was not even a single figure.

"Your Excellency, please come here." After the child finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards a room on the right-hand side, I looked at Shen Muhan, turned around and followed the child, and couldn't help muttering in my heart: "This village chief is so mysterious, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?" ”

The door to the room was pure black with a shiny surface, and in the middle of the door hung a sign with a word on it. The child fumbled on the wall for a while, and the door "clicked" and slowly shrank into the wall, and the room was lit with a lamp, and the situation inside was clear at a glance. There was a big flag hanging on the wall facing the door, and there was also a word in the middle, surrounded by a circle surrounded by some patterns, and I looked at it for a while and only saw that there was a snake inside, and I didn't understand the other patterns at all.

In front of the flag is a chair, the chair is dark throughout, it looks like it is made of the same material as the door, and the back of the chair is a special shape, which looks like a flame. There was a stone table in front of it, and there was a person lying on the stone table, and it seemed that he was dressed as the village chief. As soon as I saw the village chief's appearance, it looked like something was wrong, and I hurried a few steps.

"Village Chief!" I tried to scream, but the village chief didn't respond. I suddenly had an ominous premonition in my heart, and stretched out my hand to put it on the village chief's neck, there was no pulse at all, and there was a faint trace of body temperature on my skin, I should have just died.

Ah Yun said that the village chief came to us, but as soon as we arrived here, the village chief had turned into a corpse, what happened before we came? There is only this child here except for the village chief, could it be that the child killed the village chief?

Thinking of this, I suddenly said bad in my heart, when I came over just now, Shen Muhan and the child were still at the door, if the child is really a bad person, I'm afraid Shen Muhan will be in danger.

I hurriedly turned around and found that Shen Muhan was standing behind me, when I was checking the village chief's body just now, Shen Muhan had already walked over, but my attention was on the village chief just now and I didn't notice it.

Shen Muhan saw the village chief lying on the table at the door, and now he saw that my face was a little bad, and he probably guessed that the village chief might have encountered an accident, so he didn't go any further, nor did he speak, just looked at me in a daze.

"Little friend, what's going on with the village chief?" I bypassed Shen Muhan, blocked her behind, looked at the child and asked.

Although the child in front of me didn't seem to be a threat, Shen Muhan and I were not familiar with it here, in case this kid had prepared something in advance here, we would have to suffer, so I had secretly prepared when I asked, and while observing the child's expression, I kept skimming the rest of the room with my spare eyes.

"The Eight Banners Guards have seen the Venerable Lord." As soon as I finished speaking, the child suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of me, and I was stunned by the child's behavior.

"What are you talking about guards, what kind of lord?" I reacted for a while before I was sure that the Lord that the child just said should have told me. Shen Muhan also came out from behind me and asked, "What do you call him?" Lord? ”

The child raised his head and glanced at me, with a hint of frenzy in his eyes: "Lord, you are finally back, the task of the Eight Banners Guards is complete, please take back the Lord's order." After the child finished speaking, he didn't know where to take out a black token, holding it in his hand and holding it in front of him. I looked at the token in the child's hand and didn't know whether to take it for a while, what does the Lord and the Eight Banner Guards have to do with me?

"Please take back the Lord's order!" The child waited for a while and saw that I did not move, and repeated it again, and it seemed that if I did not pick him up, he would have been kneeling there, and I still had a lot of questions to ask him, so I had to take a step forward and take it.

"That...... I've got this back, you get up. ”

The kid waited for me to take the token before getting up from the ground, looking a little excited, and even wiped his eyes a few times with his hand.

"What's your name?" It looks like he has some secrets, and I have a lot of questions to find through him, so I can't keep calling him a friend.

"Hui respects the lord, the fourth generation of the flag master of the Lizi Banner, Lin Liding." Lin Ding bowed and replied.

"Your surname is also Lin?"

"Back to the Lord, the Eight Banner Guards are all surnamed Lin, and they are the first generation of Lords to give their surnames, and they dare not change it privately." Although I don't know what the identity of this lord is, and who the first generation of lord is, but looking at Lin Liding's attitude, the lord seems to be a very remarkable existence.

I took a step forward and reached out to hold him up, and I felt awkward to talk like this.

"That...... I don't know what you're talking about, but you still don't want to bow all the time, you just order whatever you want. ”

Who knew that as soon as I finished speaking, Lin Liding was about to salute again, if I hadn't reacted a little faster, I would have knelt down again.

"Don't dare to be presumptuous in front of the lord."

I looked at Lin Liding's strength, a little at a loss, I couldn't help scratching my head and looked at Shen Muhan, and asked in a low voice, "What should I do?" Shen Muhan was obviously confused, frowned and thought about it, and pointed to the token in my hand.

I immediately understood what Shen Muhan meant, since it was useless to say it in a good voice, then I could only come hard, looking at Lin Liding's attitude towards this token just now, I should still be afraid, so I raised the token in front of Lin Liding: "Lin Liding, I respect ...... The Lord commands you to speak at ease. ”

"Respect the Lord, you can't do it, you can't do it, the Lord's order is not trivial." Lin Liding suddenly knelt down again as soon as he saw the Venerable Lord's order, this time I was completely unprepared and could only watch him kneel on the ground.

I couldn't help but have a headache when I looked at Lin Liding kneeling on the ground, is it so difficult to speak well?

"Why are you on your knees again? Is it me, the lord, is fake or is the lord's decree fake, why can't I speak well? "I see that he is very jealous of the Lord's Order, so he can only continue to pretend to scare him.

"The Lord will not be fake, and the Lord Order will not, but Liding is really scared."

"What's there to be afraid of, I don't eat people!" I said as I pulled him up from the ground, "I have a lot of things to ask you, and I can't ask you if you keep doing this." ”

Lin Liding was about to raise his hand to salute again, but fortunately I was prepared in advance this time, and pressed it down: "Let's be free of etiquette, okay?" Save time talking. ”

Lin Liding saw that I had been insisting and had to give up the plan to salute: "Listen to the orders of the lord." ”

I was relieved to see that he had finally given up those etiquettes, and I was sweating in a hurry. I had a lot of questions to find answers to, and after thinking about it, I decided to start with what was in front of me.

"What's the matter with the village chief?"

"Back to the Lord, Liding is the village head, and the village chief is Liding."

I glanced at Lin Liding, and then at the village chief on the stone table, full of confusion, I glanced at Shen Muhan, and I was also confused.

Lin Liding saw that I couldn't understand his words, so he walked straight to the table and lifted the village chief with one hand and turned it over. Although I still wonder if Lin Liding is an eight- or nine-year-old child, I am still surprised to mention an adult with one hand.

"Lord, please look." Lin Liding pointed to the village chief's corpse and said to me.

I walked over with doubts, only to realize that the village chief in front of me was not a corpse at all, but more like a piece of clothing. There is a long opening from the chest to the stomach, there is not a trace of blood on the surface, and there are no internal organs inside. I put my hand on it and touched it, and the surface felt very much like human skin, but I could still feel a slight difference when I touched it closely, and it should be made of some kind of rubber.

"What the hell is going on?" I touched the "village chief" and asked Lin Liding.

"Back to the lord, Liding is the village chief when he puts on this outfit, and he is Liding when he takes off this outfit." I looked at the short Lin Liding in front of me, and then at the "village chief" who was obviously a head taller than him, but I still couldn't understand that Lin Liding was the village head.

Lin Liding saw that I couldn't understand, so he had to put the "village chief" on his body in front of me. After Lin Liding was dressed, he looked like the village chief we had seen before, except for the opening on his chest that was not hidden, he couldn't tell that this was a layer of clothes outside.

I saw with my own eyes the process of Lin Liding becoming the village chief, I realized that the calf part of the "village chief" is not hollow, there should be a prosthetic limb inside, so with Lin Liding's height, I can become the village chief, no wonder I didn't feel the pulse and a trace of temperature when I first came in, it seems that Lin Liding was just when we arrived

Take it off.

I looked at the "village chief" in front of me and couldn't help but have more doubts about Lin Liding's identity, who is this person? What is the purpose of dressing up as a village chief?
