After coming out of the holy land, Du Yuqi felt panicked because of little Paul, and couldn't get out of his breath, very uncomfortable, in the jargon, that is, the idea was very incomprehensible, but thinking that he would be able to leave the Arad continent and go home in four hours, he suddenly felt relaxed all over his body.

At this time, there were also seven or eight large fires outside, the flames were raging and churning, the heat was overwhelming, and a large number of fleeing people gathered around.

But at this moment, a monk next to him suddenly came up, bowed to Du Yuqi and said:

"My lord, this man has been looking for you all along, and it seems that he is in a hurry, so I brought him here. ”

When he had finished speaking, he turned sideways, revealing a ragged-looking homeless man, about forty years old, wearing a sheepskin jacket with a lot of hair worn off, and several large holes in it, his hands and feet were red from the cold, and his face was stained with dirt, showing purple-black frostbitten skin.

Such a person can be said to be the most common in Shatland City, and every day a group of similar guys are frozen to death in the streets, and then thrown directly into the wasteland outside to feed the wolves.

The homeless man bowed to Du Yuqi, and then whispered to Du Yuqi:

"My lord, my name is Mott, and I have grown up in the city of Châtley, well, my home lives not far from the Earl's mansion, because every year the mansion will recruit some temporary handymen to chop wood, carry water, repair the house, etc., and call me, so I have had the good fortune to meet the Earl of Ratnes a few times, and once I was very lucky enough to get his old man's bounty. ”

Du Yuqi narrowed his eyes and said impatiently:

"I'm in a hurry, get to the point!"

The homeless Mott hurriedly said:

"That's right, my lordship, the Earl's Court has recently suffered a ....... It is said that no one has survived at all, and my family lives not far from there, so I am so hungry that I can't help it, so I want to find something to eat after dark, or to see if there is anything that can be used as firewood to burn, but I didn't expect to go in not long ago, I actually met it, and I met ......"

Speaking of this, Mott's eyes showed a look of horror, and he said in a low voice:

"Met the ghost of Lord Earl Ratnest!"

Du Yuqi's heart suddenly "chuckled", then took a cup from the side and poured a glass of water for him, Mott held this cup of hot water and drank a few sips, the fear in his eyes gradually dissipated, and then said:

"I was almost frightened to death, but the ghost of the Count did not trouble me, but told me to go to the Minsk Sanctuary to find a man named Priest Du, and bring him a few words, and then told me a place where I was paid, and sure enough, I found a large handful of shillings there......."

Du Yuqi was stunned, but did not continue with this topic, but asked rhetorically:

As far as I know, even a very strong army has been stopped outside this terrible blockade, and you .......?"

After listening to Du Yuqi's words, Mott immediately said:

"Sir, you're right, but that's in the past, you must have experienced that terrible earthquake, and it wasn't just the buildings near the church that were destroyed in the earthquake, the blockade was also affected, and there was a widespread collapse. ”

"At the same time, the hateful barbarians had suffered heavy casualties in the attack and were unable to hold the line, so they now retreated to Dover Station to the west of the Templars, and had begun to ship large quantities of looted goods outside, seemingly giving up their ill intentions at the Templars. ”

Listening to Mott's words, Du Yuqi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect such a big event to happen outside, so he took two breads to Mott, and then went out to inquire, and found that it was indeed the same situation as he said.

Only then did he turn around and ask Mott:

"What do you want Count Ratnes to bring me?"

When Du Yuqi asked about this sentence, he seemed to be careless, but in fact, he was already fighting twelve points of spirit, because he knew very well that the really clever lies are all nine truths and one falsehood, or even all of them are true, but they will mislead you into the terrible abyss in details.

Mott said:

"Sir, the Earl said that he wanted to see you, in the past family mansion, and said that you would inevitably be suspicious, so he asked me to tell you a word: the first three treasures are not bad, do you want the fourth and fifth treasures?"

Hearing Mott's words, Du Yuqi's pupils instantly contracted, when he made a deal with Count Ratness, it can be said that there was absolutely no one else present, so this is a secret between the two of them, Mott said the key things such as the three secret treasures, and the possibility of others impersonating them is very small.

He muttered here for a while, then stood up and planned to go to his companions to see what they said, after all, whether it was Lin or Every, or Xi, it could be said that he was well-informed and could make extremely useful suggestions, but Du Yuqi stood up and walked more than ten meters, but suddenly found that Mott was still following him, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said:

"Is there anything left behind from that old thing of Ratnis?"

Mott, the bum, immediately said with a smile on his face:

"Yes, yes, sir, how do you know?"

Du Yuqi said excitedly:

"What else did you say?"

Mott grinned:

"He said that when I find you, he will give me a good payment!"

Du Yuqi:

“...... Okay, I will, but before you do that you'll have to go with me to meet a few people. ”

After a while, Du Yuqi called all the acquaintances together, among them, Du Ze, Mingxi, every time, and Xi were the best to find, because they lived directly in the practice house where the Holy Hall was directly allocated to Du Yuqi to live.

Although the area of the house is not large, even if it sleeps on the oak floor of the house, the environment is much better than the refugee tent outside------- and Lin and Fire are in another room less than fifteen meters next to it.

Du Yuqi first told him about the situation he was facing, and then asked Mott to repeat what he said before, and finally asked everyone to distinguish the truth from the false, and the first person to express his opinion was Lin, and he said very directly:

"I don't know if there's anything wrong with this, but it's certain that this homeless man Mott isn't lying, uh, because I'm a bit special, so I've been trained in this since I was a kid and can tell exactly if a person is lying or not. ”

has always been known for being well-informed, and this time he told Du Yuqi:

"The realm of the soul is very complex and mysterious, and the necromancer's research in this area is recognized as the most in-depth in the world of Arad, but they can only draw power from torturing souls, but they cannot manipulate souls to lie, especially the souls of great nobles like Count Ratnes, who have a very long heritage and titles granted by the country during his lifetime, this soul can be said to be even more powerful, unless it is willing to fall, otherwise it is almost impossible to control. ”

After hearing every word, Du Yuqi had a bottom in his heart, and after thinking about it, he took out the +11 Kuran's Flame Shadow Sword, and then pointed at it and said:

"To tell the truth, although the old fellow of Count Ratnes has a bad reputation, he is still quite generous, I helped him, and he took out three secret treasures for me, this weapon is one of them, and the two secret treasures are six large crystals, plus an Albert scroll, which is sealed with the swordsmanship of Xilan, one of the four sword saints. ”

"So, what I mean is that let's go and meet him together, firstly, to minimize the risk on my own side, and secondly, the fourth secret treasure mentioned in the words he asked someone to bring is obviously beneficial, and everyone should not run in vain. ”

Du Yuqi proposed this, and the rest of the people had no objections, Du Yuqi gave Mott a magic gold coin and let him go, and the group set off again overnight to the mansion of Count Ratnest.

This time the trip was already a familiar road, and the ice and snow blockade line had been broken, so the speed of a group of people was very fast, especially for Du Yuqi, after obtaining the ink bamboo bracelet, the increase in movement speed and jumping power was really quite obvious, it is worth mentioning that Fire failed to make the trip together, because he had been repeatedly frostbitten on his ankle in the battle with the bone prison before, and he had to dissolve the accumulated cold in his body before he could treat the wound, which was really inconvenient.

About forty minutes later, Du Yuqi and his party came to the Earl of Ratnes' palace again, and as soon as they stepped into it, the old Count of Ratnes appeared directly, and his appearance at this time was in the form of formal clothes before his death, but his body was transparent and blue, and he had completely turned into a ghost form.

However, as the saying goes, people want clothes, Buddha wants gold, although the old Earl of Ratnest at this time is in a ghost state, wearing a suit with a slim cut and neat lines, his figure looks much more slender and straight, and he also pays special attention to details in pursuit of taste, whether it is a brooch inlaid with jewels, a bow tie embroidered with gold thread, a jeweled cufflink, and a delicate handkerchief in the chest pocket of his suit, all of which make his aristocratic style emerge from the bones.

Du Yuqi had already seen the existence of a ghost like the witch Lisy before, and with such a foreshadowing, the old Earl of Ratnes couldn't scare him at all, and the only concern before was that it was a scam, but now it seems almost impossible.

When the old Earl of Ratnes saw them, he immediately stood still, bowed slightly, and took off his hat, and then said in a loud voice:

"My guest is here, Nile, tell the kitchen to bring in the freshly baked honey snack, and pour a pot of hot milk tea by the way......."

Speaking of this, the old Count of Ratnes suddenly froze, and then shook his head with a wry smile:

"I'm so sorry, I still haven't been able to adapt to the cruel fact that I'm dead, but without the shackles of that lingering body, I can do a lot more, at least it's good to be able to become a ghost and explain the aftermath thoroughly, it's better than dying without even being able to explain anything, and I still have to thank you for this matter.
