Chapter 231: The Man in the Black Robe

The messy clothes on the floor and the messy drawings on the table reminded her that there were men living here, and there was a strange smell in the air, Ling Xiyao wrinkled her nose in disgust, it was really not an ordinary bad smell.

She looked around and saw no human figure, but the drawings on the table were more eye-catching, and they all drew the same round object.

Pushing open the door and entering the second room, the pungent and unpleasant smell of blood filled her nostrils, "Dead! ”

She looked down and saw that there was a dead male corpse lying on the floor, blood slowly flowing out of the blood hole in his chest, there were clear traces of the fight at the scene, there were multiple wounds on the bare skin of the male corpse, obviously the fight was fierce, "It must be Sophie!" She speculated that the man's blood had not dried up, indicating that he had just died, and that there was no one else but Sophie.

Suddenly, there was a sound of the door closing not far away, she no longer hesitated, quickened her pace, passed by a room piled up with messy ores, followed the traces of her predecessors to open a secret door, and finally stopped in front of a door that could not be seen to be carved with ornate patterns, she tried to push, but did not move.

There is a groove in the position of the switch on the door, Ling Xiyao carefully observed, the shape of the groove is exactly the same as the pattern drawn on the drawing, this is obviously a mechanism, and a special key may be required to open it, thinking of the drawings on the table and all kinds of ores, it is not difficult to infer that the purpose of the male corpse staying here before his death is likely to open this door.

Judging from the traces of dust on the ground, this door was opened not long ago, and the sound came from here, and it seemed that Sophie had entered,

"It's hateful to be one step too late!" Ling Xiyao was unwilling to curse, she leaned on the door and listened to the movement inside, unfortunately she couldn't hear anything, so she had no choice but to wait here, secretly praying that there would be no other exit behind the door.

Let's say that Sophie successfully got rid of Ling Xiyao, and she was so proud that she closed the door, and what made her even more excited was that she would be able to pocket the baby immediately, as long as that thing was in hand, why worry about the great cause?

Thinking of this, she couldn't bear the excitement in her heart, this is a secret room of about twenty square meters, there is almost no light that can shine, it is pitch black, she is about to take out the light source, suddenly, a cold and piercing object against her neck, as if a life-threatening hook, Sophie can't help screaming, and the piercing high voice keeps echoing in the room.

She never believed in ghosts, because technology has long proven that the existence of ghosts is unreasonable, the human body is only a molecule controlled by genetic structure, and after death, it will rot into white bones, and if it takes a long time, the white bones will also corrode, and eventually turn into dust and disappear into heaven and earth.

Although she believed in this truth, she couldn't ignore the coldness on her neck, I don't know if it was an illusion, she felt her body become extremely cold, took a deep breath, the cold air pierced her throat dry, plucked up the courage to carefully probe: "Are you a human or a ghost?"

She was answered by a terrible silence, and after a long time, she asked again, and just as she thought the other would not answer, a hoarse voice rang out: "Open the door."

"It's a man, it's a man!" Sophie's brain came to the conclusion for the first time, but how could there be a man here? She couldn't figure it out, but as long as she was human, she could deal with it.

She nodded stiffly, and then considered that the other party couldn't see, and said, "Okay, I'll open the door immediately, but I can't see anything here, I can't open the door, can you allow me to take out the light source?"

The person behind him paused and agreed to her request, Sophie pulled the corners of her mouth, thanked her sincerely, and then took out a light source, everything in the closed room was exposed, Sophie noticed that the bright light made the other party hesitate for a moment, and without saying a word, she fired a few shots behind her, but unfortunately she didn't hit the target, but her own chest was pierced, she clutched her chest in disbelief, and the light source device fell to the ground and echoed loudly.

She struggled to fight back, and another sword stabbed her, her body could no longer support it and fell to the ground, her eyes followed the culprit, and "It's you......" immediately stopped breathing.

Within seconds of her death, her body was covered in a thick layer of ice, and she was extremely stiff.

"Damn it!" The man cursed in a low voice, striking her body with the hilt of his sword, but it was so stiff that it shattered into several pieces with a single blow, but the man did not give up, he calmly lit the quilt and clothes on the side, and wrapped the body in the innermost layer, and the ice began to melt, and the ice water mixed with bloodshot water wet the ground and the unburned clothes.

As the fire decreased, he added a few thicker and more flammable clothes, the fire suddenly grew, but the man's breathing became rapid, the frost's face was a little terrible, and when the blood and water accumulated more and more, he ripped off his clothes with his bare hands, groped for the soaked stumps, head, feet, hands, and torso, and finally felt a round hard object at the position of the suspected chest, different from the cold and hard skin and flesh, the round object was as warm as jade, and the frost on the surface of the gloves was melted in the palm of his hand.

He compared the shape of the round object and the door with the light source, everything was just right, and without hesitation, he pasted it, the round object automatically turned left and right several times, the golden pattern loomed, and there was an ugly "rattle" sound in the door, and after a while, the mechanism stopped, and the door was slowly pushed open from the left, and the man breathed a sigh of relief, and he could no longer hold it and fell to the ground.

When the door opened, Ling Xiyao, who was guarding outside, had big eyes, and the cat hid against the wall, waiting for the people inside to come out, but when the door was fully opened, there was still no one, she frowned, looked in cautiously, and a cold breath came towards her, she reflexively avoided it, and her afterglow saw a tall black-robed man, as well as a pool of blood.

When she hesitated to take a look at it immediately, a familiar voice sounded outside the door, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the situation inside was a little weird, and there were many people who could be brave.

Tao Xin, who came quickly, took the lead in looking Ling Xiyao up and down, and saw that she was intact, and the stone in his heart fell to the ground, and he saw many corpses on it, afraid that something would happen to her.

"There's someone in there!" Ling Xiyao pointed to the door.

Tao Xin turned his head to look over, his eyes widened instantly, even if it was blocked by the white cold air, he could still easily recognize the exclusive black robe.

"Boss!" After a scream, he rushed in.

Top dog? Ling Xiyao's brain reacted for a few seconds, isn't his boss Ji Wenjin? Thinking of the blood all over the ground, her heart beat like thunder.

Cautiously confirmed, "Is he still alive?"

Tao Xin's movements were very fast, and he hugged the person out in less than two seconds, and said solemnly: "The situation is not optimistic, but he is still alive."

When Ling Xiyao heard this, her tense nerves finally relaxed.
