The sound of the rain evoked fear, and Yao Guan saw a gray palm, slowly, slowly reaching out to him, close enough to see the palm prints, but he couldn't move. There is also a pair of eyes in the rain, gradually clear, without pupils, white as human bones.

Yao Guan woke up from the nightmare in an instant, only to find that he was tied to the table at his home, his mouth was strangled by a strip of cloth, his upper body was naked, and a dagger was poked at his heart! There are some green needles around the dagger, probably because of it.

The dagger was inserted into his heart, and Yao Guan didn't dare to move, not even gasping for breath. There was a sound of footsteps on the side, and Yao Guan cautiously turned half of his face.

I saw a gray-skinned weirdo walk up to the bed. His white eyes had no pupils, his upper body was naked, revealing two terrible slits on his abdomen and chest, his arms were wrapped in bandages, and his rain-soaked scarf hung on his shoulders.

Yao Guan remembered that this gray guy was the corpse that was carried out of the city service department. But isn't he dead? The dagger that had been stuck in his head during the day was now stuck in his chest.

"Awake?" the strange man laughed, "don't panic, I just want to give you back the dagger." Don't you welcome me?"

Yao Guan looked at him, didn't dare to speak, and couldn't speak.

"Don't you speak? That's acquiescence. Since you don't welcome me, then I'm leaving. But before I go, I'm going to take my own things with me. ”

As he spoke, the strange man reached for the hilt of the dagger, and Yao Guan's gaze moved accordingly.

"Oh, no. The strange man smiled, and as soon as his fingers touched the hilt of the knife, he moved away and pinched the needle beside him, "The dagger is yours, and this needle is mine." ”

As he spoke, the strange man pulled out a needle. The pain hit instantly, and a drop of blood oozed from the wound. "Uh-huh!" Yao Guan wailed through the strip of cloth on his mouth, and a drop of cold sweat ran down his forehead.

"Does it hurt? It doesn't matter, the strip of cloth in your mouth won't let you bite your tongue. The strange man smiled brightly, "I calculated the needle in your chest, and when you pull it out, you will fully appreciate the pain of the dagger piercing your heart." The last five stitches should be pulled out together so that the blood will spurt out together and you will not die of blood loss prematurely. ”

The weirdo then pulled out a second needle. The pain was so severe that Yao Guan almost bit his gums, and blood continued to ooze from the wound. Yao Guan was still wailing, and the strange man was going to pull out the third needle again.

"Hmm!hmm!" Yao Guan didn't care that he still had a dagger in his chest, and struggled desperately.

Seeing this, the strange man untied the strip of cloth on Yao Guan's mouth. Yao Chong gasped with palpitations and said, "Say, what do you need me to do?"

"Oh, how do you know I'm looking for you?" the strange man frowned.

"Why else are you looking for me, and why are you leaving me alive for what?"

"It's sensitive. Yes, worthy of being a member of the Spiritual Guard. The weirdo applauded, "Introduce yourself, I've forgotten my original words, but I've come up with another good name for myself." ”

The strange man leaned in front of Yao Guan's face and grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth: "Huh." ”

"Eyes, eyes. Yao Guan's pupils shrank to the size of a pinpoint, and he pronounced the name in a trembling voice.

"One word, 眢. Smile and hold up a black seed, "Do you mind if I plant this thing in your heart?"

"Great, my lord, what you say and say, it is, what it is. ”

"Don't be nervous, this won't kill you right away. As long as you appear in the northwest corner of Shaoyang City on the day of the national festival, I will take it out the next day. ”

"In the northwest corner?"

"Whatever you're going to do, whether it's going to the kiln, going to the tavern, as long as you can stay in the northwest corner all day. ”

"But on that day, we were on guard at the altar. ”

"Just take a leave of absence. "You can say you're sick and upset." ”

"This, this excuse, may be more difficult. Our Spiritual Guard Division is very disciplined. ”

"It's okay, if it doesn't work, just fake it, I can lend you a pack of broken intestines. But be warned, I can take out the seeds, but I can't take the intestines. ”

"No, no! I'll be there that day!"

On the other side of Shaoyang City, he left the palace and prepared to go to the Lingwei Division to find Han Ding. In the rain alley, a group of soldiers met Qi, and hurriedly flashed to the side, bowed and said in unison: "I've seen Lord Qianying." ”

Ignoring them, he walked straight by, and the soldiers left. Suddenly, I remembered something and rushed back.

"Wait. "Drink the soldiers from behind.

"What do you command? The soldiers stopped.

"Which unit are you from? ”

"Lord Hui, we are from the Seventh Patrol Detachment of the Shaoyang City Defense Army. ”

"The Seventh Patrol Detachment? I heard that His Highness was also a member of the Seventh Patrol Detachment. ”

The soldiers looked at each other and said, "Yes." ”

"Where are you going?"

"Back to my lord, we were attacked by mercenaries in the morning, and there were some casualties. Now, let's take the coffin of the deceased brother to the Soul Tomb. ”

Hearing this, he lowered his forehead. The rain hit his face like tears.

"Your Excellency, shall we go?" the soldier asked tentatively.

"Let's go. Raising his head, "I'll go with you." ”

"What?" the leading soldier thought he had misheard.

"I'll go with you. I was awakened by His Highness, and I am also a member of the Seventh Patrol Detachment. ”

The soldiers looked at each other, and they all felt a little emotion in their hearts, saying that Qian Ying was a ruthless monster, but they didn't expect it to be such a heavy affection.

The group braved the rain and came to the place where the soul was sacrificed. According to military practice, the coffin must be received at night to show respect for the deceased, and the person who receives the coffin must not cover the face and the top of the head, such as hats, hats, masks and umbrellas, which are forbidden.

As soon as he walked to the door of the soul sacrifice place, he heard the sound of punching from it. Stunned, he asked the soldiers on the side, "What's the situation?"

"My lord, the Soul Sacrifice Office has been like this for the past few years. They don't have any tasks, they just have fun. We don't have a backstage, and every time we pick up the coffin, we have to look at their faces. ”

Hearing this, he clenched his fists, and there was a terrible sound of metal rubbing between his finger bones. The soldiers on the side did not dare to say more.

He stepped forward quickly, kicked open the wooden door, and directly smashed the door lock. Two men in military uniforms were on the drinking order, and the table was in shambles, and an older soldier was asleep on the side.

The sleeping veteran woke up quietly and squinted at sleepy eyes. One of the soldiers drank his head, and without seeing the comer, he shouted: "Which barbarian broke into the place of sacrifice of the soul?

Furious, he stepped forward and picked up the drunkard, slammed his iron fist into the lower abdomen, and knocked him away like a paper man. The man slammed into the wall on the other side, spat out a mouthful of bile, spit out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.

"Lord Poor Ying! It's Lord Poor Ying!" the old soldier instantly sobered up and shouted. When the other soldier heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat and most of his wine was sober.

"Take the coffin!" he said.

"Yes!" the soldiers saluted in unison, and finally let out this evil breath.

The people at the soul sacrifice place did not dare to slack off, and did not care about the companion who was beaten away, and led the soldiers into the inner courtyard to take the coffin. He walked out of the place where he sacrificed his soul and stood at the door, letting the rain calm his anger.

After a while, the soldier who had led the way came up behind him and said, "My lord, there is a situation. ”

"What's the situation?"

"A body was lost. ”

"What? corpses can be thrown away? Whose corpses?"

"I don't know. The attack in the morning was sudden, the casualties were not small, and neither the wounded nor the dead were identified. ”

"Are you sure that there was a corpse lying in there before?"

"According to the people at the Soul Sacrifice Office, this corpse had just arrived during the day, and there was a dagger stuck in its head, and it was absolutely dead. ”

"Why don't you pull it out?"

"He died of poisoning. The dagger was stained with poisonous blood, and others did not dare to move. ”

"How did you know he was poisoned?"

"His whole body was gray, and when he opened his eyelids, he didn't even have pupils. ”

I suddenly thought of a person, even if there was iron armor to isolate the temperature of the outside world, but I still felt like falling into an ice cave. Even when he knew that Gan Sheng and Xi both had ideas about the national sacrifice, he didn't panic like this.

"Your Excellency?"

"Huh? You, you take the coffins of the other brothers first, and I will go to the Spiritual Guard. ”

"Yes. ”

In the open sea, even the slightest smell of blood can attract schools of sharks. I feel that the current Jingchuan is like an aging whale, and the national sacrifice is a wound on its body. Gan Sheng, Xi, or Xian are all sharks attracted by the smell of blood.

Now, the sharks have arrived.
