"Lingyue, you go away!"

Qin Qi was half-lying on the ground, waving his right hand to get Ling Yue out of the way, and at the same time, he endured great pain and pulled out the black iron piece that was tied to his leg little by little, and the bright red liquid "sizzled" out of the wound and stained the floor red.

At this time, Ling Yue was alone in the middle of Qin Qi and the headless warrior. She held the staff forward, and the green light emitted by the staff staggered to form a circular layer of light. After the headless warrior found that he couldn't move forward, he raised his scimitar and swung a few knives at the light layer fiercely, a few flashes passed, and the light layer of the spirit moon was not damaged at all, but the scimitar of the headless warrior seemed to be corroded, the blade turned black, and a few gaps were missing.

"You see, he can't get by." Lingyue turned back to Qin Qi with an excited tone. But when she turned her head back, she found that the headless warrior in front of her had quietly disappeared without a trace, and only two black footprints remained on the ground.

"How so? What about people? Lingyue retracted the aperture and carefully took a look at the dark room, except for the dusty furnishings, there was not a trace of a headless warrior in the huge room, this guy seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

"Qin Qi, he's gone!"

"Lingyue," Qin Qi stood up with difficulty against the wall, and twisted his face to the other side of the corridor, in addition to a few heads sticking out of the crack in the door, there were also two doormen who were guarding the door just now.

"Look, we've got new troubles."

One of the guards saw the scum of wood all over the floor, raised a wooden stick and pointed at Qin Qi and shouted, "Hey, you can't enter that room, why did you break the door?" ”

"It's a misunderstanding," Qin Qi calmly responded to the doorman, "We didn't break the door—or didn't it happen on purpose." ”

Qin Qi endured the pain and faced the doorman, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile, hoping to ease the tense atmosphere.

"No, aren't you the same beard you just had?" Another doorman recognized Qin Qi.

So the two of them opened their eyes and carefully checked Qin Qi's clothes, and the doubts on their faces gradually turned into anger.

"Look, I think there's something wrong with that beard," the doorman who had been intimidated by Qin Qi shouted indignantly, "It turns out that he came to steal something." ”

"Okay, you kid actually dare to make trouble here, you don't want to live anymore, right?!"

With that, the two of them knocked on the wooden sticks in their hands and approached Qin Qi with a wicked smile. Qin Qi looked around, he thought that it was more than enough to deal with these two minions, but he was injured in his leg, and his movement was a little inconvenient, besides, the space in this place was too small, and there were walls made of big stones on both sides, and the dodge was blocked, and there was no room for stretching, which would be very unfavorable to himself if he fought.

Qin Qi had no choice but to step back step by step with Ling Yue's support, thinking about various coping skills in his mind. Suddenly, he saw a dark figure descend from the sky in front of him and fall behind the two guards.

Accompanied by the screams of other tenants and the sound of the door closing, Qin Qi clearly saw that the headless warrior was standing quietly behind the doorman, the silver-white scimitar in his hand shook slightly, and the air in the entire corridor instantly condensed, leaving only the sound of rapid breathing coming from behind the doorman.

The guards also seemed to notice a person standing behind them, though they weren't lucky enough to have time to react.

The movements of the headless warrior are very fast. He stabbed horizontally, and a thick blood-colored mist filled the air, and the doorman on the right hand side collapsed to the ground with a distorted face, leaving only the lower half of his body still standing in the distance. As soon as the doorman on the side turned his face, he was hit with a fist, and his head was directly embedded in the stone wall. Thick blood burst from the walls and splattered onto the armor of the headless warrior.

A blood-stained wooden stick rolled at Qin Qi's feet. Qin Qi and Ling Yue slowly took a step back.

The sound of metal crashing is played rhythmically as the headless warrior advances. The headless warrior didn't look like the bald head that Qin Qi had encountered in the underground water channel that day, his body was even thicker, and every step he took was very powerful, almost unstoppable.

The Headless Warrior didn't seem to be very interested in killing Qin Qi. He didn't take advantage of Qin Qi's injury to avenge himself, but walked to the door and stopped, lowered his head and searched among the pile of broken sawdust, picked up Qin Qi's sword, and used his non-existent head to "observe" Qin Qi's long sword left and right.

After a while, the ruby of the long sword glowed with a thin red light, and the body of the sword began to turn red, revealing that these white lights were like red iron in a blacksmith's shop. Before the headless warrior could react, white smoke rose from his hand, making a "whoosh" sound, and he threw his sword out in pain, letting out a low roar. The smoking left hand slowly rotted and turned into a pile of black dirt.

The long sword slammed into the wall a few times, and after a burst of sparks, it came to a steady stop at Qin Qi's feet. After witnessing the fate of the headless warrior's left hand, Qin Qi picked up his long sword and limped to the headless warrior, pointing the red-hot blade forward.

"Come on, you headless monster," Qin Qi said in a mocking tone, "Duel me with your remaining right hand." ”

The headless warrior stood in place, holding against Qin Qi for a long time, and suddenly put down the scimitar in his hand. He "stared" at the long sword in Qin Qi's hand, suddenly put away the scimitar with a "bang", turned around and walked back, and after a few steps, he turned into a gust of black wind and rushed out of a wall window. The promenade returned to calm.

At this time, Qin Qi breathed a sigh of relief, put his sword against the ground to support himself, and after resting for a while, he turned his head and looked at Ling Yue, who was standing behind him in shock: "Let's go, let's go back quickly." ”

After escaping all the way out of the alley, the two made a beeline for the treehouse. Qin Qi covered his wounds, feeling hot and uncomfortable for a while, and then feeling like falling into a cold ice vault, this rhythm of ice and fire, coupled with a large loss of blood, made Qin Qi struggling to walk a few steps away from the tree house, and almost fell to the ground.

"Lingyue." Qin Qi knelt down on one knee and raised his head weakly, the white area of his eyes had been completely covered in black. He looked at Lingyue and stretched out his limp right hand.

"What's wrong with you?" Ling Yue turned around, only to find that Qin Qi had already become like this. She squatted down, caressed Qin Qi's face covered with black silk with both hands, and looked at him anxiously, but she didn't know what to do.

"I can't walk anymore."

"What's going on?" Lingyue's eyes welled up with tears, "Wasn't it okay just now?" ”

"That wound, there should be poison in the wound." Qin Qi's head leaned against Ling Yue's shoulder, his breath was short, "I'll wait for you here, you will go get the antidote things, go quickly." ”

"Okay," Ling Yue slowly stood up and looked at Qin Qi reluctantly, "I'll be back soon, you wait for me." ”

As soon as the words fell, Lingyue rushed in the direction of the tree house. Qin Qi knelt on the grass, supporting himself from falling to the ground, and after a while, suddenly he felt a chill rush up to his head, and the piercing pain pressed his brain, and he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Qin Qi felt that he had returned to his previous world lightly. He saw a group of people attending a wedding in a cathedral, including his grandfather, Uncle Law, and the instructor, Mr. James, and he saw himself standing next to the priest, who nodded to him with a smile. At this time, at the other end of the church, Luo Fangshi was slowly walking towards him with a woman wearing a white veil, and through this thin veil, Qin Qi saw the woman he had been thinking about all night, Luo Zhilan. At this time, Luo Zhilan lowered her head slightly and walked towards him with a sweet smile.

Everything was so realistic, Qin Qi could even feel the weight of the mechanical watch in his hand. He began to think that what he had encountered in that strange world was nothing more than a dream. When the priest announced that he and Luo Zhilan were married, he reached out to unveil Luo Zhilan, intending to kiss his wife, at this moment, Luo Zhilan's face in front of him became a little blurred, like a reflection in the water, and finally turned into a familiar appearance to him, Lingyue.

Qin Qi opened his eyes and found himself lying on a bench in the hall of the treehouse, and Ling Yue was leaning down to look at him anxiously. The tiredness of his body had disappeared, and there was no such torment of ice and fire just now, and he looked down at the wound on his thigh, which was empty and there was no scar at all.

"Qin Qi, how do you feel now?"

Hearing a familiar voice coming from behind him, Qin Qi turned his head to see that Bethlito was smiling at him, holding his hands in front of his chest, and wisps of white smoke from the pipe in his hand.

"Burlito! When did you get back? ”

"Hahaha," Bethlito laughed and took a few puffs of his cigarette unhurriedly, "I'll be back when you go to the alley." ”

Qin Qi glanced at Lingyue and seemed to understand something. He shifted his body and was about to sit up, but Lingyue held him down with his hand.

Lingyue looked at him with a reproachful look: "You are just getting better, lie down for a while longer, and don't move." ”

Looking at Ling Yue's eyes, Qin Qi obediently lay back. Lingyue put a blanket over Qin Qi's body, and carefully stuffed the edge of the blanket under Qin Qi's body little by little, making sure that no gaps leaked out.

Looking at Ling Yue's serious fiddling with the blanket, Qin Qi smiled: "It feels like you're wrapping a dead person." ”

Hearing this, Ling Yue's expression suddenly became very serious, and she slapped Qin Qi's chest with a "snap": "Have you ever seen a dead person have such a good enjoyment?" ”

After receiving this slap, Qin Qi didn't dare to speak, closed his eyes, and enjoyed Lingyue's care with a comfortable face.

Baillito sat down in a chair beside him. He lightly took a puff of cigarette and looked at the two young men: "But you two are also quite bold, you dare to go to the southern district of Changhu Town at night, and also go to Mu Lishi's brothel to investigate, do you know that that place is inhabited by some killers and robbers who travel all over the world?" ”

When Qin Qi heard what Perito said, he suddenly came to his senses, forgot what Lingyue had just commanded, sat up, and stared at Perito with an anxious gaze: "Do you know what happened to us tonight?" ”

"Lingyue told me."

"Do you know what's going on with that headless warrior?"

"Hmm~" Berlito stood up from his chair, put his hands behind his back, and turned around a few times, "It should be someone who uses black magic to imprison the soul on the corpse, but no one in this place in Long Lake Town knows black magic, which is strange." ”

"Alas~" Qin Qi sighed, "It's a pity that we didn't find anything this time, and we were discovered." ”

At this time, Lingyue stood up, facing this Qin Qi and Berlito, with a smug expression on her face: "This is not necessarily."

"Huh?" Qin Qi and Bethlito looked at each other, not knowing what medicine was in Lingyue's gourd.

"Look." I saw Lingyue take out a small letter from behind the white skirt, and there was a small piece of red wax on the opening on it. "This is what I got in my room, how about it? I'm still quite clever. ”

"You're so smart." Qin Qi couldn't help jumping up from his chair excitedly and hugged Ling Yue. Ling Yue was taken aback by Qin Qi's sudden hug, she was defenseless at all, and her face instantly flushed.
