Although it was already late at night, the southern district of Changhu Town was still singing and dancing, all kinds of shouts were mixed, and people who were drunk on the street abounded, at this time, Qin Qi and Lingyue were swaggering in the middle of the road, secretly watching the reaction of every passerby with the residual light of their eyes.

The two of them are dressed today with the feeling of traveling merchants. Qin Qi's full beard, a bearskin vest under a black cloak, a silver belt that glistened under the torches of the street, and a pair of fat plush trousers unique to hunters here, this nondescript combination made Qin Qi look like a fierce bandit.

Lingyue changed into a gray coarse cloth cloak, and put the cape hat on top of her head, leaving only her thin lips exposed all over her body. She lay her entire upper body on Qin Qi's chest, let Qin Qi wrap her arms around her waist, and pretended to be Qin Qi's female companion. The two of them were secretly working hard to rush to the "alley".

According to Qin Qi's chatting with Alenas and several "stepping points" in the past few days, he has basically locked the location of the bald room in Alenas's mouth. But although Qin Qi knew the location, there was no way to enter the room, Alenas had been in this "alley" during the day, let alone at night, people came and went, and Allenas's mother also hired two people to guard the "alley". As a border guard, Qin Qi couldn't walk in with a swagger, so Lingyue thought of such a method, and the two of them pretended to be guests and sneaked in.

In fact, Ling Yue had never set foot in this kind of place, and the main reason for accompanying Qin Qi to the "alley" tonight, in addition to satisfying his curiosity, was related to Qin Qi's pleading. However, she didn't show this kind of admiration too blindly, and in return, Qin Qi also had to accompany her to the Long Lake to find Yehua grass.

The "alley" was as Qin Qi thought, guarded by two muscular strong men. When Qin Qi and Lingyue were about to pass between the two without saying a word, the two suddenly stopped the two of them. At this stop, Qin Qi's heart rose to his throat, but he still maintained a cold expression, and looked coldly at the doorman whose eyes were only up to his shoulder. Because this full beard gives him enough confidence.

"What's wrong?" Qin Qi stared at the doorman with disdain, "What's the problem?" ”

The doorman's gaze revealed this obvious cowardice, and he stammered a little and asked, "Bring it, bring a weapon?" ”

"Weapons?" Qin Qi twisted his neck, "Does my fist count?" ”

In fact, Qin Qi brought all the swords with him, but he was wearing them thickly, and the swords were hidden behind his back and could not be seen.

"It's nothing," the doorman took a step back, "you can get over." ”

"Hmph." Qin Qi pretended to snort angrily, and continued to walk forward with Ling Yue, he saw that under the gray brim of his hat, a pair of white teeth were exposed, it was Ling Yue snickering.

At this time, an old woman dressed in fancy clothes walked up, she looked Qin Qi up and down, and then carefully looked at Ling Yue who was leaning next to him, the thick makeup on her face made her smile like a weird clown.

"The lord has brought his own female companion," the old woman waved her hand, "do you want a superior room?" ”

Qin Qi put on an indifferent look and lowered his voice: "The room is the best, and it doesn't matter how much it is." ”

Hearing this, Ling Yue quietly pinched Qin Qi, Qin Qi was startled by this sudden pinch, leaned back, and her eyes were about to squeeze out, making the old woman take a few steps back. At this time, Qin Qi remembered that he didn't have much money with him, and there was only one silver coin left in the two of them, which was Qin Qi's salary for ten days.

The old woman took a step forward with trepidation, and did not dare to raise her head, only showed one finger: "One silver coin a night." ”

"Good." Qin Qi reluctantly took out a silver coin from the back of his vest and put it in the old woman's hand. After the old woman got the silver coin, a smile bloomed on her face, and she hurriedly took Qin Qi and them to the room.

When they passed in front of the door of the bald room, Qin Qi secretly pushed Ling Yue, Ling Yue raised her head from Qin Qi's arms, quickly pressed her hand on the top of the old woman's head, and silently recited a few incantations, and the old woman instantly collapsed down the corridor like a robot with power off, opening her mouth. Qin Qi tiptoed over, touched the old woman with his toes, and saw that she didn't react at all, so he tore off the beard on his face and looked at Lingyue with a comfortable look: "Next time you stick your beard, this beard is like a needle on your face, and I can't stand wearing it for a while." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, we need to hurry, someone will find out that she's missing soon, and we'll have to get things done before anyone else notices." With that, Lingyue cautiously squatted down and took the silver coin from the old woman's hand.

"That's not good," Qin Qi smiled awkwardly, "After all, it's all for her." ”

"But we don't live here either," Lingyue said calmly, "We can't cheapen her like this." ”

"Okay," Qin Qi leaned down and carefully inspected the door in front of him, and after touching it for a long time, he found that the entire door was a smooth wooden board, not to mention the doorknob, there was not even a keyhole, and he couldn't push it open.

"Lingyue, there's a bit of trouble here."

"What's wrong?" At this time, Lingyue was placing the old woman on a chair in the hallway.

Qin Qi beckoned to her: "Come and see, this door doesn't even have a lock, how can you get in?" ”

Ling Yue glanced at him, walked over, and gently stroked the door panel with her hand, and after a while, her brows furrowed: "It's strange, it seems that someone has cast a spell on this door and covered the door from its original appearance." ”

"You mean it's not what we look at now?"

"Hmm," Lingyue pulled out her staff more than a meter long from her sleeve as if she were magical, and put the staff against the middle of the door, the top of the staff emitted a faint green light, the green light flowed like water on the entire door panel, the concave and convex veins and door locks gradually revealed, the smooth appearance instantly collapsed, when the green light disappeared, the door returned to its original appearance.

"You see, the door really looks like this."

"Well, it seems that the bald head doesn't want anyone to find this door," Qin Qi took out the sword that Bethlito had given him from behind his back, and easily cut off the rusty lock, "However, he should change to a better one." ”

The two of them got into it with their hands and feet. There was no light in the room, so he couldn't see anything, and after Qin Qi entered, he cautiously closed the door, and as for what was going on in the room, he didn't know very well. The air in the room was not too bad, there was no humidity and stuffiness caused by the lack of air convection for a long time, on the contrary, it was almost indistinguishable from the outside, except for a strong smell.

"Qin Qi, do you smell it?" Lingyue asked Qin Qi in the dark.

"Well, you wait." Qin Qi stopped Ling Yue with his hand, his sensitive nerves seemed to touch something, and faintly, he heard an unsteady breathing sound in front of him, just like a fierce beast found prey in the distance that could have a full stomach.

"Lingyue, give me some light." Qin Qi pointed his sword forward and put on a fighting posture.

A faint white light emanated from the staff in Ling Yue's hand. The appearance of the room gradually changed from blurry to clear in the darkness, a short wooden boat, a chair full of stinking smoked clothes, a bathtub covered with black scale, and a black figure standing only four meters away from Qin Qi.

Men in Black? This word naturally popped up in Qin Qi's heart, maybe it was a conditioned reflex, as long as he saw a black figure now, he would see him as a man in black. But when he looked closely at the figure in front of him, he found that it was obvious that this was not a man in black, or that he could not be called a complete person.

This is a warrior in light armor and holding a full moon scimitar, the Turner logo on his chest is very obvious, but the place on his shoulder where there should be a head is empty!

"Qin Qi!" Lingyue was frightened when she saw a headless warrior standing in front of her, and she only knew to grasp Qin Qi's arm tightly with her hand.

Qin Qi himself was also stunned by the scene in front of him, and he carefully looked at the monster in front of him, if he guessed correctly, the headless warrior in front of him should have his bald head cut off by his own hands in the sewer that day, but how could a dead person still stand in front of him alive, and even his head was gone.

The bald head raised his left hand and patted the armor on his chest vigorously, as if he was roaring at Qin Qi, releasing his anger, and then saw him holding the scimitar with both hands, and rushed towards Qin Qi with a posture that wanted to kill Qin Qi.

"Get out of the way!" Qin Qi pushed Ling Yue away and put his sword horizontally in front of him, blocking the bald head's fierce blow. The strength of the bald head knife was so great that Qin Qi could clearly feel a gust of wind sweeping over his head, and there was a metal trembling vibra in his ears.

As Lingyue fell to the ground, the light of the staff was extinguished, and the room was plunged into darkness again, but the battle between the two did not stop because of this, Lingyue leaned against the wall, and she was dazzled by the continuous flashes of sparks, and the fierce collision of knives and swords in the darkness disturbed her sense of direction, and it felt like she was in the middle of a battlefield.

Lingyue touched the staff on the ground for a long time and finally touched it, hurriedly lit the staff, and at the same time that the light illuminated the entire room, she saw Qin Qi being kicked on the door by a bald head, the wooden door panel was directly broken into pieces, Qin Qi's whole person fell directly outside the door, and the long sword fell into the room. Lingyue immediately jumped up, and she ran towards Qin Qi desperately, blocking between Qin Qi and the bald head, holding only a magic staff in her hand.
