What I didn't expect was that Madame Black actually said something that puzzled us: "I don't know how I brought the coffin in." ”

"I never saw the coffin, and no one gave it to me," Lady Black explained. Later, I learned that you had encountered a ghost stall, and I thought that the stall owner had chosen another target. So...... That's why I ......."

I frowned slightly: "When the stall owner gave you the incense burner, did he do anything else?" ”

"It's gone...... That's right! The black lady said: "The stall owner said that in order to hide people's eyes, he hid the incense burner in a clay statue. I deliberately asked my entourage to go in and carry the clay puppets. ”

Tan Yue nodded and said, "Before you came out, she did bring out a large clay statue, which was much taller than a normal person, and was shaped into a cross-legged posture, holding an incense burner in her hand. However, after the black lady took the incense burner, she destroyed the clay statue. It was two of her retinues who carried it away and threw it away. ”

"Human coffin!" I couldn't help but gasp: "The coffin that the stall owner asked you to bring in is one of the two entourages. ”

The human coffin, which can also be called a corpse within a corpse, simply means that the corpse is put in the stomach of another dead person whose internal organs have been hollowed out, and the corpse is used as a coffin to breed evil things.

"Impossible!" Madam Black vetoed: "Even if he made my entourage into a human coffin, with so many masters present, can you not see that it is a dead man?" ”

Tan Yue said: "Maybe you don't have to be so troublesome, why don't you just replace a certain part of his body?" Someone in your entourage looks like they've got a prosthetic leg, right? ”

"Right...... Yes......" The Black Lady's face turned pale.

Ling Yun said in a deep voice: "You can't tell anyone about this, pretend that you don't know anything." Do you understand? ”

"Understood!" The Black Lady could only nod.

Blood City has always been strict against the ghost stall, if she knew that the black lady brought in a coffin, even if she had nothing to do with the ghost stall, she would have to die without a place to bury.

Just as we didn't know what to say, we suddenly heard an angry roar outside: "There are assassins!" ”

Tan Yue and I looked at each other, and at the same time got up and rushed out of the house. By the time Tan Yue and I jumped onto the courtyard wall, many masters had already rushed to the scene of the incident. After several jumps in succession with the flow of people, I stood on the eaves along the street.

Although the streets below were surrounded by gold-armored guards, the crowd could still be seen.

In the center of the crowd was a stone coffin, surrounded by scattered limbs, as if the coffin had been slapped flat from the sky and forced the people on the street to the bottom. Parts of the deceased's abdomen and torso had been slapped into flesh, but parts of the limbs and head had flown off into the distance under the force of the coffin.

"Barrow?"

It was only after one of the guards pulled the deceased's clothes out from under the coffin that I could see what the clothes looked like. The deceased must have been Barrow, who had just left us.

Tan Yue said in a low voice: "Can you be sure? ”

"I can't." I shook my head lightly and said, "None of us have ever seen Barrow's face, and we can't identify him by a piece of clothing alone." ”

Du Miao, who came later, said: "More than ninety percent are Barrow." Wizard robes have a strict hierarchy that no one can overcome. ”

As we were talking, a man dressed as a great witch suddenly spoke: "The great witch Baro has been assassinated, and we must investigate the murderer strictly." Please return to the inn immediately and do not go out as much as possible to avoid accidental injury. ”

Without saying a word, the onlookers turned to leave, and a few of us followed back to the inn.

The guards on patrol outside quieted down until midnight, and I was just about to sleep for a while when I saw the door slowly pushed open a crack. A piece of paper cut into the shape of a human slowly crept through the crack in the door, jumped onto the table in twos and threes, and sat cross-legged in the middle of the table like a living person.

The paper man's painted mouth moved one by one: "Ling Yun, I'll talk to you about a deal." "Listening to the voice of that paper man, it should be the girl who troubled us in the desert.

Ling Yun said coldly: "You don't seem to be qualified to trade with me. ”

The paper man sneered and said, "Don't think that if you talk in the house, no one will be able to hear you." I heard it clearly when the dark night pupil brought the ghost coffin into the Blood City, and I recorded it. What if I give the recording to the law enforcement wizard? ”

Ling Yun's face turned cold, and he was about to speak, but Madam Hei had already preemptively said, "That's my business, it has nothing to do with them!" ”

The paper man brutally interrupted the Black Lady: "If I say it's related, it's related!" Now that everybody knows that you're in the same room, and that you've gotten along at first, and now you're all in the same boat, who believes you're not colluding? As long as I hand over the recording, none of you will be able to escape! ”

She's telling the truth. In this case, not to mention the rampant Blood City, any huge force may hold the mentality of "I'd rather kill the wrong one than let it go" and arrest us into the dungeon.

Ling Yun quietly gestured to me, meaning to let me find a way to find the location of the paper man. After I took Du Miao to slowly move the position, Du Miao immediately released a Gu worm like a fly without moving.

Ling Yun said coldly: "What do you want?" ”

The paper man smiled: "I want your Life Creation Pill." Also, if you want to spread the word of magic, you will be defeated in my hands, and you will see me as a disciple in the future! ”

The murderous aura in Ling Yun's eyes gradually rose: "Don't you think this request is too much?" ”

"Excessive?" The paper man smiled: "Compared to your lives, this is not too much to ask. ”

I saw that Ling Yun was about to fall out with the other party, but Du Miao hadn't found out the result yet, so he immediately spoke: "Little sister, as far as I know, the Life Creation Pill is of no use to you, right?" ”

"Who's your sister? Be careful when you speak! Mess with me, you're good-looking! The paper man was furious before he sneered: "The Life Creation Pill is really useless to me, I want to create the Pill just to put it in the living room, as a trophy to defeat Ling Yun." Isn't it possible? ”

I suppressed my anger and said, "Ling Yun doesn't seem to have offended you, why do you keep getting along with us again and again?" ”

"She's offended!" The paper man screamed: "My master says that she is so good and so good all day long, what achievements she has achieved and what heights she has reached when she is older!" Why should I use her as an example? I'm just going to beat her and stomp her under my feet! ”

I understand that this is another victim of "someone else's child". As parents, sometimes they like to say "how other people's children are" and "how other people's children are...... It's simply that other people's children are the best, and their own children are the worst. Many people have the urge to strangle "other people's children" to death, but they just don't have the ability and courage. Now, we happen to meet someone who is capable and courageous.

I squinted at Du Miao, who shook his head slightly, meaning: I haven't found her place yet.

I deliberately sarcastically said, "Little guy, I have to say, you will never be Ling Yun's opponent!" If you really have the ability, stand up and compete with Ling Yun with open fire. If you lose, you will still be honored. ”

"You shot twice, either by conspiracy or by trickery. The method is despicable, even if you win Ling Yun, it can only disgrace your master. ”

"Nonsense!" The paper man stood up from the table.

I said with disdain on my face, "Did I say it wrong?" The poison king has the dignity of the poison king, even if he loses his light when poisoned, he will not threaten the other party with despicable means. Your current techniques are all taught to you by your master? ”

The paper man said sharply: "You dare to insult my master? ”

I said even more disdainfully: "It wasn't taught by your master, where did you learn it?" As the saying goes, if there is a teacher, there must be a disciple. It seems that your master is also a rat who can't see the light. ”

The paper man didn't know what to think, and turned his head to look at Ling Yun: "Ling Yun, do you think so too?" ”

Oops! I felt a thump in my heart. I deliberately sarcastically tried to provoke her and make her show her feet. If it goes too far, it is likely to backfire. Once that girl loses her child's temper and turns around and sends the recording to the big witch, we don't have to play with anything.

With Lingyun's temper, can she say good things now?
