The fire in the Hall of Eternal Life burned all night, almost burning the Hall of Eternal Life to an empty shelf.

He Jingying and Xiao Lian were searching the Hall of Eternal Life when they ran into Qi Zhen and Cao Jingzhao who walked in from the other end of the secret passage.

Beside the four of them was an iron prison, and all the people tied to the iron bed were dead. In addition to people, there were countless decapitated carcasses of wild dogs.

Although the fire spread to the basement, the fire was not large, and these people still had a whole corpse. It's just that these people were tightly tied to the iron bed when they died, and they couldn't escape when they saw the fire, and the ghost masks on their faces, which should have been roasted red when they were burned by the fire, the faces of these people were fused with the ghost masks, and they couldn't be separated.

Although he knew that the ghost-faced Langjun was not alone, he was still very shocked by the face of so many ghost-faced Langjun.

He Jingying saw that these people were dying in a miserable state, and her face couldn't bear it: "Why are these people tied up?" ”

Xiao Lian looked at the wild dogs next to him who were also burned to death, and his face was slightly gloomy: "He is doing an experiment." ”

"Experiments? What is the meaning? ”

If you explain things like brains, neurons, and surgical transplants, it is too difficult, and it is easy to expose your identity, so Xiao Lian said lightly: "He is using an evil technique to turn people into dogs." ”

Transplanting a dog's brain into a human skull is beyond the comprehension of people of this era. But if you add the word sorcery, it's not so difficult to understand.

"That's what that person created Ghost Face Langjun for?"

Xiao Lian shook his head: "Not only that, he has other purposes, he wants to be unfavorable to the emperor." These ghost-faced Langjun should be eliminated. It's like the guy in the manger, he kills it if he doesn't need it. ”

Qi Zhen looked ashamed: "Princess, we failed to catch the person who escaped from the secret passage, please punish the princess." ”

He Jingying was relieved: "Mrs. Qi doesn't have to be like this, when I handed over the news, that person should have been gone for a while." ”

"That man is what they call him?" Cao Jingzhao asked.

"I'm afraid not." Xiao Lian opened an iron door and glanced at it, and said coldly.

The iron gate kept the fire out, and the people inside were not burned to death, but suffocated to death. But the only one who was suffocated to death should be the man who described himself as crazy and covered in blood.

The other man did not have a good spot on his body, his arms and legs were covered with tooth marks and missing flesh, and bones were found in the deep wounds. His belly was bitten open, his intestines flowed out of his belly, and the blood on the ground was dried by the fire, leaving only a charred black. The man had been bitten off a piece of his face, leaving a hole in it, revealing yellowed teeth inside. The missing scalp was covered with a few strands of white hair stained with blood. This is what happens to a man who claims to be God.

Cao Jingzhao was a little disgusted when he saw the picture in front of him, and couldn't help retching.

Xiao Lian pointed to the person who had been gnawed to see the skeleton: "This person is the master here, called Xiao Daoci." ”

"Xiao Daoci?" When He Jingying came from Kuixing Tower, she didn't hear the conversation between Xiao Daoci and Xiao Lian, and Xiao Lian didn't know until this time. "Isn't he long dead?"

"Who is he?" Cao Jingzhao hadn't heard of Xiao Daoci and was a little puzzled.

"The ghost face Langjun Xiao Wuyu, the grandfather of Xiao Yuanda, the general of Xirong. If I'm not mistaken, he died five years ago. ”

"Could it be that he lied about his identity to the prince?"

Xiao Lian shook his head: "There is no need for him, not to mention that the ghost-faced Langjun Xiao Wuyu is operating in the capital as the younger brother of Xiao Yuanda, the general of Xirong, and it is impossible for their family not to know about it." ”

"Are they trying to rebel?" Qi Zhen asked.

"Then it depends on how much Xiao Yuanda knows."

While he was talking, He Yin also walked in, and when he saw He Jingying's bloody appearance, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and called softly: "A-Ying." ”

He Jingying looked back and saw that He Yin's face was even paler than usual, knowing that He Yin had rushed from the capital overnight to save her, her heart was a little warm, and she was also a little worried: "Third uncle, the smoke is still very heavy down here, so don't come down." ”

"It's okay, I see you haven't come up for a long time, come down and take a look. You just said that there was a man who escaped from the secret passage, who is it? ”

Xiao Lian replied: "It is a powerful subordinate of Xiao Daoci, called Xiao Huatuo." Has the third uncle ever heard of this person? ”

He Yin shook his head.

"This person is the same as Xiao Daoci knows this evil art, and he can exchange human brains for dog brains."

He Yin frowned tightly, he knew Xiao Lian's identity, and he could guess that the "evil art" in Xiao Lian's mouth was probably something that the people here couldn't master. Swapping a human brain for a dog's brain was something he had never heard of. The horror of this "evil art" is not as simple as witchcraft.

Xiao Lian picked up the somewhat blackened scalpel and handed it to He Yin: "Xiao Huatuo left in a hurry and didn't take this thing away." This set of knives is the most basic tool for performing this 'evil art'. It takes the best blacksmiths to build this set, and it takes a lot of time and a lot of time. We can cordon off this place first and let someone from the capital investigate it in detail. At the same time, go and check the people everywhere who want to build this set of knives. ”

He Yin nodded and ordered: "Osu, you go back to Beijing first, and tell the Holy Lord about the situation here, and at the same time arrange for our spies to keep an eye on the blacksmith shop." ”

"Yes." Ojuku turned and left.

He Yin coughed a few times and snapped out a mouthful of blood.

He Jingying hurriedly helped He Yin: "Third uncle, let's not be here anymore." We've all done a preliminary survey here, and there's not a single live opening, the set of knives, and nothing else worth noting. ”

He Yin nodded, and suddenly remembered something: "A-Ying, that friend of yours asked me to tell you that he left first." ”

"Friends?" He Jingying was stunned.

"It's the one in white."

"Oh." He Jingying suddenly realized, but she was not used to saying that Gongziyu was her friend. "Third uncle, don't you blame me?"

"What?" He Yin was puzzled.

"The Northern Dynasty."

Originally, He Jingying thought that she was asking for help from the people of the Northern Dynasty, and He Yin would blame her for being reckless. Because it involved the people of the Northern Dynasties, it was said that it was a collaboration with the enemy and treason, which is also a matter of a book.

He Yin smiled and shook his head: "As long as it can save you, why care about this." If anyone dares to bully you with this, the third uncle has his own way. ”

He Yin suddenly remembered something: "Before I left Beijing, I went to the palace and saw the ghost-faced Langjun. It proves that the news here has not yet reached the capital, and if we go back soon, we can still catch a living ghost-faced Langjun, which is more valuable than these dead ones. ”

He Jingying nodded: "Okay, without further ado, we'll leave now." ”
