In a region of influence where war is in full swing and humans are becoming orc vassals, alcohol sales are increasing day by day, so you may not find a restaurant, but you can certainly find a tavern.

Chen Daqi and Qingjiu tracked all the way here, listening to the wind, and with the help of the waning moon in the sky, they could see a row of footprints near the mud pit.

Qingjiu knew that he had guessed correctly, the girl who had the cashier was indeed not dead, and besides, there were not many tourists here in the wind and rain.

He moved faster and more carefully, and after listening quietly for a long time, there was no sound in the tavern, and he frowned, and rushed out like an arrow.

When they reached the door, they could not see the inside of the house, but no one noticed that the tavern was strangely quiet, except for the occasional sound of insects in the woods.

The mat in front of the door was already wet, Qingjiu thought for a moment, and walked briskly around the back of the room, thinking about stealing the bread from the back, maybe the woman was hiding inside and waiting for someone to enter?

But as soon as he reached the back door, he saw the woman leaning in front of the door frame.

The woman stared straight at her, her beautiful face was also a little hideous at this time, and the sound of insects was loud, accompanied by the sound of the wind in the jungle, but the woman still did not make a sound, did not move, and did not run away.

Qingjiu sighed secretly, and a chill began to go straight to the top of his head from the soles of his feet, "I can't think of ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Qingjiu shook his head, because the woman could no longer hear his words, and it could even be said that the entire tavern could no longer hear them.

Qingjiu carefully stepped forward to inspect the woman's wound, and found that the woman's throat had been pierced, and this wound was exactly the same as the weapon on Chen Daqi's waist, just like the snake belly and honey arrow killed by him, piercing and tearing wounds, plus the rain, there was no trace of the murderer at the scene.

Walking into the tavern, two or three people were nailed to the pillar diagonally, and the way of death was the same as that of the woman outside, if it weren't for Qingjiu getting along with Chen Daqi all night, he would even think that this was Chen Daqi's murder after seizing the treasure.

Moreover, according to the time calculation, from the time when several people met in the first tavern, it was only an interval of four hours, resulting in the destruction of both taverns, what did the people behind the scenes want to do?

Although Chen Daqi is extremely fast, his physical fitness is still not as good as that of a sorcerer, so he gasped outside for a long time before he walked in, and when he saw the scars of the corpse, he subconsciously raised his hands, "I didn't do it, I have been drinking with you all night, my superpower is body acceleration, which can speed up the passage of time in the body, so as to achieve the effect of teleportation, there is no clone or the ability to kill people in the air." ”

Qingjiu had to admit that this passage was beautiful and concise, and quickly washed away all the doubts on his body.

Qingjiu picked up a bottle of wine on the table and sniffed, "I believe you." ”

Chen Daqi breathed a sigh of relief and frowned as well, "We were stopped by Shiyue for only a few minutes, and the corpse inside was completely cold, representing the other party's ......"

"Huh!" Chen Daqi discovered the problem, "The Zhiyu Tavern we met was killed by the Moon, and this place was even killed one step ahead of the Zhiyu Tavern, someone calculated everything, or is it a coincidence?" ”

Chen Daqi turned his head and asked, "What should I do next?" Do you really want to start an all-out war with the eclipse moon? ”

Chen Daqi thought for a while, "It should be said that we are going to be slaughtered by the Moon-Eater?" ”

He would not be so proud that he thought that if he killed one or two beasts, he would have enough ability to challenge thousands of people, and Qingjiu couldn't do it either, maybe only the most mysterious old man Heng had a way to escape.

And the most critical point, Chen Daqi asked, "Have you seen that jade Ruyi?" ”

Qingjiu shook his head, "I didn't see it, obviously the other party came prepared." ”

Suddenly, there was a movement in the back kitchen.

The two glanced at each other, and rushed over together, but instead of rushing to the back kitchen, one took the wine, the other looked for the source of the fire, and cooperated tacitly before coming to the kitchen door.

He just came to the door of the back kitchen, and when he opened the door, the tip of a bright sharp knife was pointing at him.

The tip of the knife was trembling slightly.

The person holding the knife was an old man who had made a fortune, there were no hairs left, and the wrinkles on his face were even more terrifying, which showed that he was not young.

The old man held the sharp knife and said loudly to Qingjiu, "You...... Who are you? ”

He tried to speak as loudly as he could, but his voice was a little shaky, so that he sounded very hoarse.

Chen Daqi suddenly remembered who he was, and said with a smile: "Old man Li, you don't recognize me?" ”

The old man just shook his head.

Chen Daqi said with a smile: "I recognize you as the boss here, just a few days ago, I drank wine at your place, and the wine you personally mixed for me that day was not delicious, but at least it was very cheap." ”

The look of vigilance in the old man's eyes was a little less, and he could hear that both sides were human, but his hands were still clenching the sharp knives, and he said vigilantly: "Your surname is ......."

Chen Daqi said: "Don't be expensive, surnamed Chen, I also showed you a photo of my daughter." ”

The old man let out a long breath, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter, which also shattered his long-standing insistence, and cried: "It turned out to be you, I remember you, someone ...... I have a distinguished guest who asked me to wait for you here. ”

Chen Daqi frowned and said, "Wait for me?" ”

The old man said in a trembling voice: "Two days ago, there was a ...... Distinguished guests came here to drink, killed people, killed many, many people, dragged away some of the corpses. Then she came again not long ago, and brought a man with her, and said that she would give it to you, and if she hadn't delivered it to you herself, she would ...... again I want my life. ”

Chen Daqi looked around, "What person?" Who was left behind? ”

The old man said, "It's locked in the kitchen storage room." ”

The kitchen is not big, and the storage room is not big, but he saw a few bottles of expensive and good wine, which were thousands of bottles of high-quality goods in any place, Chen Daqi glanced at it a few times and didn't look at it, and began to observe a long thin guy who was tied to a chair behind his back.

Chen Daqi couldn't figure out who left him, so in order to prevent Qingjiu from having doubts about himself, he was the first to speak, "I don't know him, and I don't know the person who left this person to me." ”

Qingjiu Muran nodded.

The person who was tied up on the chair obviously didn't expect to see Chen Daqi again, the horror in his eyes was even stronger, the muscles at the corners of his mouth were also trembling, and he could even see a little pleading, wanting the old man to let him go, but the person behind the scenes was very confident, and in order to prevent him from tempting the old man, he blocked his mouth early.

Chen Daqi was not afraid of this person running away, so he first untied him, but this man was almost frightened and fainted, Chen Daqi just moved his fingers, and he was already incontinent.

He wanted to beg for mercy, but his mouth was dry and he couldn't speak.

Chen Daqi didn't urge him, sat down opposite him, asked the old man to take out a few bottles of wine, and then poured a glass for the man in front of him, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, your surname?" ”

The fear on the man's face was even stronger, and he took the wine glass tremblingly, and after drinking all the wine in the glass, he mustered up his courage, "Little Guanfeng." ”

Chen Daqi calmed down and poured him two more glasses, "Alcohol can anesthetize the nerves, so you won't continue to shake, and if you want to escape, you will have the strength to stand up." ”

Guan Feng held the wine glass with both hands, and was afraid that the wine would spill out, so he quickly leaned in with his mouth and drank the wine in one gulp.

Chen Daqi smiled: "Very good, I have already told you a secret, it's your turn to say." ”

Guan Feng's eyes rolled a few times, "I'm ......"

At this time, Qingjiu suddenly played the role of a black face, and said in a deep voice: "The wine has also been drunk, and the words have been spoken, if I guess correctly, Yu Ruyi is on your body, take it out, and I won't kill you." ”

Guan Feng was stunned for a moment, his hand shook quietly, and Qingjiu saw this small action in his eyes.

He took a long breath and squeezed out a smile, "What jade Ruyi, I haven't heard of it?" ”

Qingjiu smiled: "Haven't heard of it? ”

Guan Feng's smile was even more ugly, "I really haven't heard of it." ”

Qingjiu shook his head and sighed: "Do you know, there are many defects in the human body, such as piercing a tooth-picking pick into the nail, twisting it hard, and then pulling it out fiercely, this kind of taste is the best to use to extract a confession, and I like to use it the most." ”

Guan Feng subconsciously looked at his nails, and Qingjiu smiled again: "There is another one, but it's not torture." ”

Qingjiu listened intently for a while, "There seem to be a lot of bugs out there, and most of them don't mind eating meat and drinking blood, they only need to catch a few bugs, and then make a hole in your arm to force the bugs to get in." ”

Chen Daqi blinked, "What if the worm is suffocated?" ”

Qingjiu smiled: "Then it's simpler, catch a few more, open a few more, and do it repeatedly, no one will save him anyway, right?" ”

The two of you sing me and, it seems that the serious research needs to catch a few bugs and make a few openings in order to dry the blood of an adult.

The more Guan Feng listened, the more frightened he became, his face turned pale, and he reluctantly smiled: "Why are you two joking with me." ”

Qingjiu pinched a bamboo skewer from the ground, "Do you think I'm joking?" ”

He just rubbed Guan Feng's nails, wanting him to know the pain, because cowards are most afraid of pain, and when they see their own blood and feel pain in their bodies, they will tell the truth, and Qingjiu has known this truth for a long time.

Who knows, the bamboo skewer slowly pierced into the crack of the fingernail, Guan Feng was still full of smirk, and he didn't seem to feel it at all, and the torn wound actually recovered the moment the bamboo skewer was pulled out.

Qingjiu and Chen Daqi glanced at each other, and their hands stopped.

He didn't hurt at all, and even the effect of his body was stronger than that of an orc, and the two of them were also not surprised, because both of them remembered the rumors of Yu Ruyi, which could make a person invincible.

The two nodded to each other.

Qingjiu stood at the front and smiled, "How old is this year?" ”

Guan Feng didn't expect him to ask this question, so he asked for a levy and said with a smile: "It's five in Chinese New Year's Eve this year." ”

Qingjiu said: "A lot of age, then you should know that the world that comes with the beast, in addition to the seven legendary demon soldiers, there are many treasures, these treasures are rarely really seen, but tonight from the legend to the reality of the treasure, it should be ......"

He stared at Guan Feng and said word by word: "Zhaoyuliu, it is said that as long as this thing is held, it will not be injured by water and fire, will not be troubled by disease, will not be affected by the pain of mutilation, and even as long as you subjectively do not want to die, you will not be able to die, this should have been heard, right?" ”

Guan Feng's face had become like a rag that had been rubbed and rubbed, and he wanted to run when he jumped up.

His speed was not slow, and in an instant he left the old man behind and rushed out of the door, but as soon as he took a few steps, he heard the sound of a wine bottle shattering, and a warm and bright firelight.

The next moment, the seal burned in flames.

Amazingly, the flames were quickly extinguished, followed by a small knife that Guan Feng took out of his boots, this knife was also a weapon that could be called a treasure, but with a sway, the tip of the knife ignored the distance of several meters and came to Qingjiu's neck.

It seems that he has been prepared, although he is neither a superpower nor a magician, but his brain is easy to use.

Listening to the sound of 'dang', Qingjiu didn't move, just tilted his head slightly, but deliberately leaked out his neck, and the crystal skin climbed from his chest to his right eye, just blocking the tip of the knife.

It looks like a handicraft crystal, but it is surprisingly strong and there is not the slightest scratch.

Qingjiu smiled: "The next time you meet a magician, please remember that every breath and movement you take is very slow in the eyes of our magicians, just from the movements of your twisting and raising your hands, I can deduce your attack method and target." ”

Guan Feng was like a stone man, frozen in place, not daring to move.

Qingjiu smiled: "Are you still fighting?" If you don't want to fight, hand over Zhao Yuliu, and you can barely exchange your life, provided that you tell me who you are loyal to and who captured you. ”

Guan Feng sighed and said, "That's right, this thing is here for me, but I'm useful!" ”

Qingjiu laughed, "Who is useless with such a baby?" ”

Guan Feng was obviously more urgent, and it seemed that tears were squeezed out a little, "I'll tell you the truth, in fact, I am from Broken Slope City, and I follow Guan Haonan, that is, my cousin is doing business, this time I heard that there is such a treasure here, I want to try my luck, plus Bao Gong, the second largest force on Zhiming Island, once released a word, whoever can get this treasure can exchange any of her conditions, and the most important thing is ......"

Qingjiu interrupted Guan Feng's words, and just at this time, the owner of the tavern walked in with a few bottles of wine that were still intact, and said with a smile: "Two, I still have a few bottles of good wine here, why don't you have a drink before talking." ”

The old man said excitedly: "The tavern is gone, I should also leave, I can drink a sip." ”

Chen Daqi was more familiar with the old man, so he opened his mouth first, "Old man, if you want me to take care of your business, you should take out such good wine on the first day, and now I have woken up with a hangover, and I will really get drunk if I drink it again." ”

It's just that he couldn't stand the old man's enthusiasm, and gave him a full glass, Chen Daqi sniffed it, his face improved a lot, and said with a smile: "It's really good wine." ”

Qingjiu looked at the cup in his hand, and then looked at the enthusiastic old man, he always felt that this glass of wine should not be drunk, but he hadn't come up with a good excuse to shirk it, but fortunately, at this time, a dark crow flew out of the window, it seemed to be a little greedy, and a few wings fluttered to take away the wine glass in Qingjiu's hand, and the crow drank water, sipping the wine one by one, and his face was extremely enjoyable.

Qingjiu's face was extremely strange, and he wanted to see what happened next, but Jiang Qiu's instructions were still in his ears, so he patiently turned his head and asked Guan Feng, "What is the most important thing?" ”

Guan Feng also drank a glass of wine, relieved himself, and knew that there was no point in continuing to lie, and said with a wry smile: "You may not know, there is a rumor in the Thousand Islands Plain recently, it is rumored that a brown-haired man has strange abilities, and seems to be able to deceive people, so that anyone he sees, any beast, can be used by him. More than a dozen orcs have already suffered, and even many ordinary people have suffered, and so have our team...... We don't even know when our minds have been captured and we are attacking our own people. Therefore...... If you have this kind of treasure, as long as you can subdue him, you can exchange a large sum of money from the major forces. ”

"As you saw just now, I didn't feel any pain when I was burned by fire or pierced into my nails with a toothpick, so this treasure can definitely help my heart."

Qingjiu didn't dare to be interested in this kind of thing, and asked, "Guan Haonan is your cousin?" ”

Guan Feng nodded.

Qingjiu exhaled a long breath, "Where is he?" ”

Guan Feng said: "I went north from Zhiming Island, I stayed here just to steal this treasure while I was in chaos, but I was caught halfway, and I didn't even know who caught me." ”

Guan Feng said bitterly: "I am a businessman who can live on strange goods, I want to get some good things and sell them at a good price, and I have never done anything evil that hurts the heavens and reason." ”

Qingjiu smiled: "It's for money to steal the treasure, and if you want to catch that brown-haired man, it's also for money, so you can just become a hunter." ”

Guan Feng said cautiously: "I won't tell you, in fact, I am also a hunter." ”

It seems that as long as many things are said, knead the little Jiujiu in your heart and put it in the sun, and many misunderstandings will be solved, but the most troublesome thing is to put people's hearts under the sun.

When the old man saw that the crow came out to stir up the situation, and the drunk crow even began to snatch the glass of wine in Chen Daqi's hand, he couldn't bear it anymore, his body was vigorous, he pinched the crow's neck, and his cold eyes were sneering, "It's been a long time, do you remember who I am?" ”

The crow quacked a few times, and even said in a human voice: "I remember, but I only remember that your surname is Wang, and you once ambushed me with Fei Jie in Tianyang City." ”

The old man smiled: "That was the first time, this is the second time, and I think there should be a third time." ”

Jiang Qiu smiled and said: "The wine is good, but I have a problem, when I drink too much, my brain is easy to twitch, and I can't control my ability if I smoke, if I can't control my ability well......"

The crow suddenly turned his head and smiled, "It seems that my delay is quite effective, and they all know what I am going to do." ”

Wang Quanlai, as a close confidant of the ambassador of Hua Shaoguo, was sent to kill Jiang Qiu and obtain his shadow technique, but he was stopped by Adam's action for the first time, but this did not mean that he gave up.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the birth of the treasure to fish in troubled waters to kill Jiang Qiu's people and force him to face him head-on, but he never thought that Jiang Qiu's ability had actually evolved and he could speak in human language, which made his face a little gloomy.

In addition, Qingjiu actually dragged the two of them to escape as soon as possible, which more or less made Wang Quanlai a little confused.

Of course, the doubts don't last long, but only for a few seconds.

The black crow turned to ashes and dissipated into the air, leaving only a fiery red feather in Wang Quanlai's hand.

In the far north, Jiang Qiu smiled and sang, "Burst!" ”

In the firelight of the sky, an embarrassed old man escaped. ’

And the moment the old man escaped, it seemed that he had changed into a different person, his face was red and purple, and the silk threads, which were almost invisible to the naked eye, began to flutter with the wind, cutting everything he touched.

And Guan Feng is just an ordinary person, of course, he can't dodge, and he was cut into four sections in an instant, but the effect of this treasure is too powerful, causing Guan Feng to be constantly cut by the silk threads that fill the air, and Guan Feng is constantly healed.

Chen Daqi jumped near a wooden stake, frowned and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Qingjiu smiled bitterly: "One game is one game." ”

"Arcana was born, Jin Feng Lei was intercepted and killed, and the moon was intercepted again, and as a result, Arcana was stolen, and this guy wanted to use the person who stole Arcana to hunt me and force one of my friends to come out." Qingjiu paused, "There are two more questions, who arrested Guan Feng back?" Who killed this tavern? It seems that the man surnamed Wang in front of him is not the one who captured him. ”

Chen Daqi's head hurt, "The feeling is that we are stupid people who don't know it, and we are used by everyone, and these people are hiding behind the scenes, commanding and watching a good show from afar?" ”

Chen Daqi thought for a moment, "Just like that crow?" The real body is hiding in an unknown place? ”

"However, let's deal with the person in front of you first."
