Chapter 028: An Arrow Seals the Throat
The magician didn't notice Ryan, he just looked around habitually.
Then the magician walked around the flat ground, and after making sure that there was no one around, his mouth began to chant magic spells, and as he had done the night before, he lowered the light of his magic wand until only a thin point remained.
Ryan looked over, and the thin light shone on the magician's face and reflected back, with an eerie appearance, which looked very terrifying, making Ryan's heart furious.
The mage removed the branch that was blocking the burrow and stuck his wand into the ground in front of the burrow, and the mage began to undress.
At this time, Ryan began to curse in his heart.
"This perverted guy, on such a cold day, he is not afraid of freezing when he takes off his clothes."
"A body of ribs, and I'm embarrassed to take it out, it's really shameless."
"I'm doing the right thing for heaven today, getting rid of a perverted guy for the world."
Soon, the magician stripped naked, and his sleek and emaciated body looked terrifying in the faint light.
The magician took a bag from his clothes, put the clothes he had taken off into the bag, and placed the bag next to his wand as he had done the night before.
Then the magician jumped into the hole and sat down, moving slightly, as if adjusting his sitting position.
At this time, Ryan, who had already prepared, also adjusted the angle of the crossbow slightly, so that it was aimed at the mage's throat.
Then, as the night before, the magician cast a spell and extinguished the light on his wand.
Suddenly it was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.
At this time, Ryan was thinking about whether to launch the arrow right away, but after thinking for a moment, he decided to wait a little longer before firing it.
A quarter of an hour later, Ryan gently placed his hand on the handle of the crossbow and gently pulled it with his index finger.
With a "poof", the bowstring sounded, and the arrows were fired.
Immediately, there was an "ah" sound, and a scream came from ahead.
The screams were loud, but they immediately became low, and a low cry of "hum hum" rang out.
It was still pitch black ahead, Ryan couldn't see anything, he didn't dare to make any moves, and waited silently.
The screams grew lower and lower, and after a few moments finally stopped all sound.
"Dead?" Ryan noticed sweaty palms, "Let's wait." ”
A moment later.
"What's next? Do you want to go down and take a look? But if the magician is not dead, it is not very troublesome. Ryan was a little undecided, but he had an idea.
Ryan sat on the branch at the top of the tree, removed the long strip of cloth that bound the crossbow, put the crossbow back on his back, and rolled the strip of cloth into a ball. Immediately after that, Ryan took out the flint from the bag in his arms, "clicked" twice, set the cloth ball on fire, and then threw the cloth ball vigorously in the direction of the hole.
The lit cloth ball arced through and fell next to the hole, and through the faint light of the fire, Ryan found the magician lying motionless next to the hole. The cloth ball lit up for a few breaths, and then slowly went out.
Ryan was overjoyed, but he didn't climb down the tree right away. He reached out and took the dead branch that covered his body, removed the excess leaves three times and twice, and then took out a piece of cloth from his body, tied it tightly to the top of the dead branch in a few circles, and then took a flint and steel and lit it to make a torch.
Ryan gritted the torch with his teeth, stuck his sword stick on the strap of his back, and held the trunk with both hands, alternating to climb down the trunk.
Ryan immediately took the torch in his left hand and took out the sword and stick from his back with his right hand, looking guarded.
Ryan then slowly approached the hole.
After taking a few steps closer, Ryan had already seen the magician. The magician was lying on his stomach beside the cave, his upper body outside the hole, his arm stretched out towards the magic wand, apparently trying to reach for the magic wand, but he couldn't.
The lower half of the magician's body was still in the hole, and an arrow was stuck diagonally in his throat, and blood was dripping from the ground. The magician's eyes were wide open, and he was staring in the direction of the wand. It's really a dead eye!
Seeing this scene in front of him, Ryan's first feeling was fear, and the second feeling was disgust. At this moment, Ryan felt the contents of his stomach gush out of his mouth. Suddenly Ryan didn't dare to look any further, he ran two steps to the side, got under a tree, and began to vomit.
He vomited for a long time, and only slowly stopped until Ryan felt that he was vomiting everything in his stomach. As he vomited constantly, the fear in Rui An's heart gradually diminished a lot.
In Ryan's previous life, Ryan had hardly seen a real corpse, and although he often saw some bloody scenes on TV, he knew very well in his consciousness that most of those scenes were fake and not something that could be encountered in reality. Moreover, when some real horror scenes are actually seen on TV, Ryan usually changes channels and does not watch them.
However, now, Ryan saw a real corpse, and most importantly, this corpse was killed by himself, how could he not be afraid?
Although Ryan had seen many corpses in the past, and he had seen corpses on the first day he was reborn into this world, it was impossible for Ryan, who now had the thoughts of his past life as the leader, to be indifferent.
After a few moments, Ryan continued to cheer himself up, and he plucked up his courage and returned to the magician again to watch the magician go on with him.
The corpse of the magician **** looked even thinner, and he died so reluctantly at the hands of Ryan, which can be described as extremely unlucky.
Ryan found that his anger had completely vanished. Before the magician died, Ryan was still angry from time to time, eager to skin and brace the magician. But now looking at the corpse of the magician, Ryan finds that he can't hate it.
"How small human life is! A man who could have killed me with a single incantation was plotted by me and hung up immediately. ”
"Murderer, man kills. In the future, I will always be careful, or maybe one day someone will plot to kill ......" Ryan kept sighing in his heart.
What happens next? Ryan has no experience, but that doesn't stop him from figuring out how to deal with it.
This world is not like the world of Ryan's previous life, after the murderer commits the crime, there are law enforcement agencies who are desperately chasing after the murderer, and they can use various means and technology to investigate all kinds of clues.
Human life in this world is very worthless, and murders happen from time to time. Under normal circumstances, if the murderer is known, after the relatives of the killed person report the case, the city guard will arrest him, and then depending on who he killed, he will be fined, hard labor, and even death. This kind of punishment, which seems to be very deviant, is recognized by everyone in this world.
For example, if a nobleman kills a commoner, the city guard will not come to trouble him again as long as the nobleman is willing to pay a large sum of money to admit the punishment.
For example, if a commoner kills a nobleman, if he is caught by the city guards, there is no other punishment than execution.
But more often than not, the relatives of the killed are reluctant to report the crime, they prefer to take revenge in their own way.
As for if you don't know who the murderer is, then you can only check it yourself, and if you can find it, you can take revenge, and if you can't find it, it will naturally be closed and become a headless public case.
Ryan thought about it for a while and decided to bury the magician on the spot, anyway, there happened to be another hole in the ground, and then eliminate all traces.
Ryan looked at the magician's naked appearance, which was really unsightly, so he picked up the bag that the magician had placed on the ground before, and wanted to take out his clothes and cover the magician.
As a result, Ryan was startled when he opened the bag, and the bag was empty.
"I saw the magician put his clothes in the bag just now!" Ryan searched around as he thought about it, but there was nothing around him except a magic wand stuck in the ground.
"Could this be the legendary magic storage bag?" Rui Anxin thought in surprise, but then his heart immediately turned cold, "But how do you open the magic storage bag?" I'm not a magician. Trouble, don't worry about it for now, and study it later. ”
Ryan took the bag into his pocket.
"If you don't have clothes, then you're destined to leave this world naked, and you like to be naked anyway, and it's not bad for you." Ryan whispered to the magician, using a branch to move the magician's body into the burrow.
Ryan was asked to move the mage's body with his hands, but Ryan was unwilling. So he chose to use a branch to erect the mage's corpse and move it into the burrow.
The half-meter-wide and half-man-deep hole looked a little small, but the magician's body was so thin that there was still a lot of space on it after Ryan moved in and curled up in the hole.
Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, he finally didn't have to look at this horrible corpse anymore.
