Volume 2, Xuanhai Immortal Mountain_Chapter 153, Black Nails
On the second day of the competition, there was basically nothing for us, and for Lingqian's safety, we were still living in the guest house for the time being. That night, more than one side came to step on the point, but it didn't do it yet. Lai Guodong walked into my room, closed the door gently, sat down and said: "Xiaoshan, I tried to inform the headquarters of what happened here before, and I also wanted to apply for the support that was canceled before to be rearranged, but it is very strange that the telephone lines in the entire town have been cut off, and now the communication with the outside world is basically controlled by the Ling family. I don't think it's a good sign, if we are completely controlled and can't go out to report, then the outside world doesn't know if we are killed. ”
Lai Guodong's words did attract my attention, and then he continued: "Moreover, there were a lot of people who came to step on the spot last night, but they all didn't move. Now the attitude of the spirit group is ambiguous, and I don't know what he wants to do. Maybe many people are waiting for his opinion now, if he wants to kill us, so many people will do it together, Lingqian may not be able to save it. Moreover, I think a person has to be profitable, but what is there about Lingqian that is worth it? ”
Lai Guodong's mind is clear, and he got to the point in a few words.
"Let's take a look, tomorrow should be the last day of the big war, and if there is an accident, it is not impossible for a few of us to rush out." I lit a cigarette and was talking when the fat man suddenly walked in, looking like something was going on.
"What's wrong?" I asked curiously.
"Lingqian...... Lingqian's handmaiden has been found! ”
A few of us followed the fat man to the forest outside the town, this place was erected in twos and threes, because the road out of the town had not been repaired earlier, and sometimes the dead could not be pulled to the crematorium, so they were buried on the spot. The fat man went outside early in the morning to explore the wind, and they never thought that when they were exploring the wind, they found that there was a tombstone with some problems, although the tombstone was old, but the soil under the tombstone seemed to have been moved. So he dug up the dirt, but he didn't expect to find the missing maid inside.
On the ground in front of her lay a highly decomposed maid, whose identity could be seen from the clothes on her body, Lingqian stood behind, a little lost when she saw the corpse, and muttered, "I hurt her." Actually, I could have let her go, and leave me early to leave this place of right and wrong, but I have known her since childhood, and it is better to say that it is a master and a servant than a friend. She said she would go to you for me, but she was the only one who didn't leave me at that time. When I heard that she was missing, I vaguely felt that something might be wrong, but I didn't expect to see this day. I hurt her, if I hadn't been caught, I had escaped earlier, maybe I wouldn't have ......"
"Don't blame yourself, no one wants these things." Yuan Feng accompanied Lingqian and quietly comforted her.
I looked closely at the corpse, even though it smelled terrible, and it was very pungent. Plus the body was highly decomposed, but I still found something. The corpse's clothes were intact, but the corpse's face, near the neck, had a relatively deep wound, which looked like it had been scratched, and when I looked closely, I found a black thing from the wound, and when I took it out, I found that it was a black nail, very sharp, and it looked like a sharp animal claw.
"There's no other clue, hey, look at it again. If there is no other discovery, the body will be burned, the ashes will be buried, and it will be buried in the ground, and she is also a good girl. I took a few steps back, Lingqian walked to the side of the corpse, squatted down silently, took the hand of the corpse that was already somewhat decomposed, and gently recited the Sutra of the Past Life, she is a Yin walker, and she is more familiar with these scriptures than anyone else.
"If there is an afterlife, I am willing to repay your love, and I hope that in the next life, I can be your maid. Go with peace of mind, reincarnate early, you are a good person and there will be good rewards. ”
At night in my room, I look at the nails in my hands and feel a little strange. But this strangeness is indescribable, and after careful examination, the nails are pitch black, and one end is very pointed, very hard, and I hit it with a hammer a few times, and it didn't break! But there were no signs of fracture at the end of the tail, and when I looked closely, it didn't look like it was broken, but like it had fallen off naturally.
"Knock knock......" There was a knock on the door, and I shouted to please enter, and I saw Lingqian walking in.
"You don't sleep so late? Tomorrow is the most important day. I smiled as I put away my black nails and spoke.
"Maybe it's because tomorrow is the day that will decide the fate of my brother and me, so I can't sleep. I want to talk to someone, and I don't know who to talk to, and I came out and saw the light in your room, so I came to talk to you. She smiled.
"I can't sleep either, these days the wind outside is tight, and the strong enemy is ring-fed, my sleep is very light." As she spoke, I poured her a glass of water.
"I heard you're in a relationship?" Perhaps she wanted to spice up the atmosphere, she asked. I was stunned, shook my head and said, "I broke up some time ago, and now I'm single." ”
"Oh...... I'm sorry, I don't know. Well...... Isn't it appropriate? She hesitated and asked.
"Maybe it's just not suitable, the personality is not quite suitable, what about you? Over the years, I haven't been dealing with my family behind my back? I asked, smiling, and placed the glass in front of her.
"I talked about one a few years ago, but unfortunately it was known by the family, who gave him 100,000 yuan and broke off our relationship. Hehe......"
"Oh......"
There was an awkward silence, and she suddenly held the water glass and suddenly said a little shyly: "That...... I said something the night before yesterday that offended you and what to say for the first time...... Don't take it to heart, I really couldn't help it at that time, I didn't mean to insult your personality. ”
"Haha, don't worry, I'm not that stingy. What's more, such a beautiful woman like you is so attentive to me, it's too late for me to be happy, how can I be angry? You've come just in time, how much do you know about the opponent we'll meet tomorrow? Tell me everything you know. I brought the conversation back to business.
"I don't know much, many relatives of the Ling family are very hidden, and the strength they usually show is not strong, but they only exert their strength at such a critical moment. But if I have to say it, the one who should be worth paying attention to the most should be Linglong's younger brother, in fact, Linglong himself is a candidate who is favored by everyone, but he didn't expect to lose to us. His younger brother Linghu is not good at stubble, he fights with his brother very fiercely on weekdays, and there are many capable people under his hands. ”
"Oh......" I nodded. The two of them fell into embarrassment again, Lingqian looked at the clock on the wall, stood up and said: "It's late, I won't disturb your rest, if I can really sit in the position of the head of the family tomorrow, you are my great benefactor, I will definitely repay you!" ”
Some words will become some kind of implication on certain occasions, I looked at the glass of water in front of me, smiled, and said to myself, "Are you really going to pay me for yourself?" ”
The turbulent Ling family finally ushered in this day, and the already dilapidated ring seemed to be quietly waiting for the arrival of this day. Today, the new head of the Ling family will be decided.
The stands were full of people, Lingqun and Shuya finally appeared in the sight of everyone, our competition was placed in the back, after sitting for a while, I had some urgency, so I got up and walked to the back of the stands, and walked to the back of the toilet after leaving the stands, and went to the toilet at the back, just like the toilet, I was pulling the trouser chain but I heard the sound of talking from outside the toilet.
"Don't kill me, I've cooperated with you, I can give you whatever you want." It was a voice with a pleading.
"My master wants you to die!" As soon as the words fell, there was a slight scream, followed by the sound of panic and impact, I hurried out of the toilet and saw a black shadow flashing, and then went to the back to take a look, and there was an extra corpse on the ground, someone I had never seen. If you look closely, there are three scars on his neck, which directly cut his artery, and there is still a black nail on the wound!
"So coincidentally?" This black nail turned out to be exactly the same as the one I found on the corpse of the maid, that is, the murderer of this man is also the murderer of the maid!
"Fuck, what the hell is going on!" I wondered in my heart.
