Book 8, Chapter 6: Sacrifices to spirits are not people
Qin Yao told me that she went to a very dangerous place. She also told me not to worry, because there is Luo Ke by her side.
As for Xiao Ruo, she has long since cut off contact with me.
Now I really want to cry without tears.
However, I can't express the slightest bit of unhappiness. Yaya is so forced to laugh, can I still be sad?
She is not in danger of her life now, but she is unusually weak. I could only carry her on my back.
Returning to the hotel where he had been drinking, he stormed the manager's office in a murderous manner.
No one dared to stop me, because they couldn't stop me.
"I want all the surveillance data!" I looked at him and said coldly.
He didn't understand what was going on, but said, "Not everyone can use those materials." In many places, the trade secrets of the hotel and the rights and interests of customers are involved. ”
His face was obviously displeased, but he didn't dare to yell at me. My face has already told him that I am angry now, don't offend me.
"Don't be verbose! Hurry up and give permission! With a sneer, he summoned the Miao Knife and slashed at the desk in front of him.
His face turned pale in an instant.
Xierzhuo has the ability to crack other people's surveillance systems, but it takes time, and now, I don't have time, so the most direct way is to force the manager to hand over the authority.
Even if it leads to the police, I can't care so much.
"To give, or not to give?"
Miao Knife was so sharp that it almost split his computer desk in half. Again, this is the result of my lack of force.
Compared with money, nature is still important.
The manager had no choice but to give the password to the database.
I sneered and read it silently in my heart, asking Xierzhuo to restore the process of the bottle of wine from the warehouse to the table through these monitoring.
Hildra was analyzing the surveillance video, and I was back in the private room.
Qian Xinyu also walked up, staggering, looking at her appearance, she was very weak.
I'm trying to find some more clues from the scene.
That table was huge, and three people sat around such a table, which was really "empty". The dishes and chopsticks are not touched, so there shouldn't be any problems with these things. But I still habitually look at them one by one, especially the glasses and bottles.
At this time, Xierzhuo's analysis came out: from the warehouse to the dining table, all the way was covered by surveillance without dead ends, but I didn't see anyone poisoning the wine bottle!
I frowned, since it wasn't a wine bottle, it was most likely, a wine glass.
I was about to ask Xierzhuo to rummage through the monitoring of the wine glass, when three blood-red words on the table came into my eyes: Sacrificial Spirit Cow......
Indescribable shock: how come these words appear in this place?
I am now sure that the last time in my villa, the third "word" was not some kind of symbol, but really a word! A word that hasn't been written yet.
Now the mutilated word has been added, and it has become the current word "cow"!
Sacrificial spirit cows? What does that mean?
No one will tell me.
I looked at Qian Xinyu, but I saw that she was also at a loss.
"Don't look at me," she said, "I didn't write it." If you don't believe me, I can write a few words right now, and compare your handwriting yourself. ”
"Sacrifice Spirit ......" I silently recited these two words in my heart, all along, I thought that this person I knew, even if the relationship was not very good, there was no hatred. But now, there is really hatred.
Before, I was 50% sure that my father and my father's disappearance had something to do with this "sacrifice spirit", but now, I am 80% sure.
Sacrifice ...... Cattle......
Does this sentence mean that the sacrifice of spirits is very good? She quietly poisoned Yaya, and it worked, so show off here? Last time, he wanted to write, but I'm afraid it's also this "cow" word, but I don't know why, the word cow is missing.
This time, the words were not written in blood, but in the red oil in the dish. It seems that this guy is really using local materials.
The girl lay on my shoulder, looked at these three words, and muttered, "Sacrifice to the spirit...... It's a sacrifice spirit again, who the hell is she......"
Qian Xinyu lowered her head, frowned, and was silent.
"Maybe ......" After a long while, she suddenly spoke, "The spirit can save the maid......"
I snorted coldly and said in my heart: "The bell must be tied to the bell, do you still need you to tell me this truth?" ”
I'll admit that I did have a bias against her.
However, Qian Xinyu's next sentence had to make me face it,
She said, "Actually, I'm also looking for a priest ......."
I was stunned, and the girl froze.
Qian Xinyu continued: "I'm sick. It's a terminal illness. I don't have much to live, so I'm going to find the priest who can cure me. I've been looking for months, but I haven't found anything, and I didn't expect to see the word "sacrifice spirit" here."
"You go to that deserted base? Just to find the priests? ”
"Hmmm! But I failed. I didn't find it. So, I'm dying. ”
Hearing her words, I felt more and more complicated things were going on.
I always felt like someone was following us, but I couldn't find anything.
From the moment the word "sacrifice" appeared here, I knew that I was once again embroiled in a conspiracy and controversy.
I'm also looking for "sacrifice spirit" now, these two words have appeared around me continuously, and every time they appear, something bad happens. I'm going to find her and find out the truth about everything.
I thought about it for a long time, and then I calmed down and said, "How can you be sure that the spirit is in that wormhole?" ”
"I've been doing research for a long time. Yu Tong, do you think I went to Hengduan Mountain just to follow you? At that time, I had already started to get sick, and I wanted to live, and the sacrifice of the spirit was my only hope to live. ”
I'm a little stunned: Hengduan Mountain...... This is the place where I hear the most about the sacrifices. How many secrets are hidden in those deep mountains? No one will ever know. Now it seems that Qian Xinyu will go to that place, and collecting intelligence is probably one of her purposes.
"Where did you find what you were looking for?"
She nodded. He continued, "I know you have something to do with the spirits, and now it seems that you are more desperate than I am to find it. Yu Tong, it's better for us to cooperate. ”
To be honest, I don't like working with this kind of person, it's too dangerous.
But the situation is pressing, and many things are not something you don't want to do.
After a slight hesitation, I nodded in agreement.
Since she had been looking for the sacrifice spirit for a long time, there must have been a lot of information about the sacrifice spirit in her hands. And that's what I need to know now.
In this world, there are no absolute friends, no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
For the sake of Yaya, and for the sake of Daddy and Daddy, I can only sit down and talk to her calmly now.
Qian Xinyu looked at me and said, "First of all, I want to tell you something that you may not be able to accept. ”
I was silent and waited for her to continue.
The girl sat quietly beside me, resting her head on my shoulder, her face pale. She's listening attentively, too.
Qian Xinyu continued: "For a long time, we thought that the spirit was a person, but after I checked a lot of information, I found that it was not a person. It's a very mysterious jade-like thing. It has powerful healing powers. ”
I frowned, "Why would there be such an assertion?" ”
"Do you remember those notebooks in Hengduan Mountain? Remember the Book of Heaven in a copper box under the temple? The words in that book are not known at all. But the ciphertext in those notebooks can be deciphered. ”
This is no longer surprising, since Qian Xinyu can write to me in ciphertext, then she naturally deciphered this code, and knows that I have also deciphered this code. But it's clear that she deciphered far more than I did.
"Yu Tong, since you have also deciphered the ciphertext, then I think you also know the code name of 'Sanrenhe'. This code name does not refer to anything else, but to the sacrificial spirits. I've calculated countless times, and I'm 99 percent sure that this code name is a sacrificial spirit.
The spirit is not a dead thing, it moves on its own, and many times, it is inevitable that it will be misunderstood as a human being. But it's really not human, she's a holy relic of the vanished civilization in Hengduan Mountain, and she almost has the ability to come back to life. If it is really found, Yaya's toxins can also be removed. ”
At the beginning, the original notebooks and heavenly books in Hengduan Mountain were collected by me, but out of the principle of information sharing, Qian Xinyu, Mo Yiyuan and others also made a copy.
I'm silent, is that what you're coming up with?
The sacrifice spirit is not a person, but an object? But how do you explain these three words now?
Qian Xinyu looked at me and continued, "Later, I started looking for the sacrifice spirit. Her whereabouts were recently spotted in the Golden State. I continued to track it down and found its whereabouts again in Wazi Village. Finally, it entered the abandoned base.
Success was within reach, but I failed. I don't have the physical strength to track it down anymore. ”
I don't know how much of what she's saying now is true, but I can only believe her for the time being.
Now that we know the location of the sacrifice, the rest is left to look for it.
I turned my head to look at Yaya, and said softly: "Yaya, that place is very dangerous, you can go back first......"
"No!" She shook her head stubbornly, "You promised me just now that you would never leave me." ”
I know what she means, she has no hope for her life, so she wants to stay with me a little longer.
I sighed and said, "Okay...... I'm taking you with you......"
She smiled, and smiled sweetly.
In my heart, I was dripping blood.
Yaya has experienced too many disasters.
I got up and walked out of the hotel as I summoned the mechs on my battleship.
If the girl wants to follow me, I have to protect her.
That mecha had been badly damaged in the battle with Luoke. In the days that followed, I repaired it with a pitiful number of parts, and although it was not as powerful as it used to be, its defensive capabilities were still not to be underestimated.
Qian Xinyu also walked out and said, "I'll go with ...... too."
Looking at her frail appearance, I asked, "Can you do it?" ”
With my current ability, it's okay for me to take care of Yaya, but if there is one more woman who has no force value, I really don't have any ability.
That base has been abandoned, and it is impossible to have a biological weapon like the "Scarlet Giant Ape" with combat effectiveness. My mech is already capable of protecting Yaya. But Qian Xinyu ......
"I'm fine!" Qian Xinyu said, "That place, haven't I already been to it once and come back alive?" ”
As soon as she said that, I really couldn't refuse again.
She straightened her somewhat messy hair and said, "You wait for me a while, I'll go to the apartment and pack some things." My apartment is nearby. ”
"Go ahead!" I could only nod my head, carry her on my back, sit down on the flower bed by the roadside, and feed her two pills.
She just looked at me and didn't say anything, but there was a smile in her slightly dim eyes.
"I wish you could take care of me like this!"
"I don't like to take care of you, because you're a nuisance." I sat down next to her and laughed, "So you have to get better." ”
She nodded, but there were tears in her eyes......
If it's a hopeless ending, why force a smile?
"Master," Xierzhuo suddenly said, "I've already sorted out the video materials, do I want to send them to you?" ”
"Get it on my phone." Xierzhuo can play the video in my head, but then Yaya can't see it.
She leaned on my shoulder, her soft hair rubbing against my neck, and the faint smell lingered on the tip of her nose.
Her taste, really good, has not changed at all in 800 years.
Some people say that after experiencing it, it will be indifferent, and only when you pick it up can you be qualified to say let it go.
But there are some things, even if they have been experienced thousands of times, they can only be picked up, not put down. It is precisely because I understand that I am even more reluctant to let go......
I was ruthless in my heart: No matter what means I use, I want to let Yaya live.
"What is this for?" Seeing that I took out my phone, she glanced at me with a hint of strangeness in her eyes. Pale face, pale lips, but these eyes are still so smart and charming, people are reluctant to look away and indulge in it.
"Monitor," I whispered, "let's see, I won't let go of that bastard who poisoned you." Don't let me find him, or ...... Hum! I'm going to have to make him eat the poison himself. ”
Yaya didn't speak again, looking at the screen intently.
The surveillance video has already begun to play, and this time, it is the surveillance video of the three wine glasses.
The glass was taken out of the sterilizer, into the waiter's hand, and finally on the table.
During this whole process, I did not see any particularly obvious poisoning action.
The waiter put the wine glass on the table and walked out. In the entire private room, only Qian Xinyu was left.
She sat at the table, didn't say anything, didn't do anything. His eyes were hollow, and he looked ahead in a daze without focus.
After a long time, she took out her napkin and wiped down the wine glasses, dishes, and chopsticks.
When these things were done, she lowered her head again and continued to wait.
The people she has to wait for are naturally me and Yaya.
