Chapter 60: The Man Behind It
Time passed slowly, the moon was on the willows, in the middle of the night.
"Bell"
"It's dry, watch out for the candles."
In the streets, the sound of the watchman sounded, becoming the only sound in the night.
Zou Mansion, everyone is drowsy, as are a few guards guarding the treasury, their eyelids are fighting, if before, they could still be vigilant, but now, they haven't seen their belongings lost for several days, and they are gradually relaxing.
However, at this moment, in the distance, a paper figure flew lightly, without causing the slightest movement.
The paper figure turned pale with a strange smile on his face.
With one palm, he slowly picked up the tile, set it aside, curled up his whole body, and entered it through a palm-sized hole.
In the warehouse, the paper figure did the same, opened a box again, took two pieces of gold in his hand, and slowly flew upward.
Flying smoothly from the roof and closing the tiles, the paper man glanced at the sleepy people below, then turned away in a flash.
When the paper man walked away, the doors on both sides creaked open, Ye Hongling and Qi Zixiao glanced at them, Qi Zixiao sneered, "I've waited for so long, and finally waited, I thought I really gave up." ”
"I'm with you?"
Ye Hongling said.
"No, you stay here, Zheng Zhutou and I will chase after you, and we must find each other tonight!"
Qi Zixiao opened his mouth murderously, and Zheng Hu on the side was also gearing up, ready to do a big job.
After speaking, he jumped up with Zheng Hu and ran into the distance.
Seeing them disappear, Zou Ying's eyes flashed, and she pulled Ye Hongling excitedly, "Sister Hongling, let's go take a look too." ”
Ye Hongling hesitated for a moment, feeling that it would be a pity to finally encounter this kind of thing, and it would be a pity if she missed it like last time, so she nodded, "That's okay, but you have to follow me, you can't leave me for three meters, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you." ”
Zou Ying nodded excitedly and agreed, and then the two of them ran into the distance.
At this time, the paper figure took advantage of the darkness to jump on the roof, and soon came to an ordinary house, and the street was silent.
In the house, an oil lamp was dimly lit, and a slender figure could be faintly seen in it.
The paper figure jumped from the roof and landed in the doorway, the door opened, and the paper figure glanced back a few times and entered directly into the door.
In the distance, Qi Zixiao and Zheng Hu followed all the way, and when they saw the house in front of them, a touch of coldness flashed in their eyes.
"You stay outside and I'll go in and take a look!"
Qi Zixiao spoke in a low voice.
He was afraid that the other party would take the opportunity to slip away after entering, so he needed someone to guard outside.
Zheng Hu nodded, and stood at the door with a serious face, "Be careful yourself, if you encounter danger, call at any time, I will rush in as soon as possible." ”
As a second-grade peak martial artist, even against a third-grade Shenqiao martial artist, he can barely hold on for a while.
Qi Zixiao nodded, and then his figure flashed and entered the courtyard.
Some flowers were planted in the yard, bright and bright, exuding a charming fragrance, Qi Zixiao looked at the house behind him, an oil lamp was quietly lit, releasing a bright light.
In the room, a slender figure loomed.
Seeing this figure, Qi Zixiao took a deep breath, clenched the treasure knife tightly in his hand, and with a flash under his feet, the end of the world spread out at hand, and rushed out in an instant, with a "boom", it smashed the door of the room at once.
However, when he entered the room, Qi Zixiao saw a paper figure with a strange face looking at him with a strange face, and a woman sitting there next to the bed, slowly combing her hair with a comb, with a coquettish expression.
"Whew"
Suddenly, the paper man rushed out and rushed towards Qi Zixiao, turning his palm into a knife, and slashing out, a terrifying yin qi converged, forming a knife light.
Qi Zixiao shouted, with a thunderous glance, the sword light was like lightning, and he collided with the other party in an instant.
"Boom"
With a loud bang, Qi Zixiao felt a cold breath pass down the blade of the knife into his arm.
He couldn't help but take two steps back, his eyes looked coldly ahead, and a black mark appeared on the paper man's arm, which seemed to have been burned by the flames.
"Demon, let me see what you are capable of!"
Qi Zixiao opened his mouth indifferently, and the spiritual domain spread instantly, and the power of qi and blood in his body skyrocketed, reaching a peak all of a sudden, like a burning furnace.
"Kill!"
Qi Zixiao raised his sword to kill again, and his power more than doubled.
The paper man killed again, exuding a terrifying yin and evil power on his body, but unfortunately, at this time, Qi Zixiao used the spiritual domain, and his strength more than doubled.
"Bell" "Bell" ......
Every time Qi Zixiao slashed out, it felt like he was slashing on top of the iron, bursting out with a trace of sparks.
The paper man was forced to retreat again and again, unable to resist, and with a "snort", Qi Zixiao cut off one of the paper man's arms, turning it into a cloud of ashes and disappearing.
Qi Zixiao became more and more courageous the more he fought, his fighting spirit was extremely condensed, and the sword light became more and more terrifying.
"Bang"
Qi Zixiao slashed out, and the paper figure was slashed away with a knife and fell in front of the woman.
At this time, the woman raised her head slightly and glanced at Qi Zixiao, Qi Zixiao's eyes froze, and she saw the woman's appearance, "Wang Xiaofang!" ”
It's the girl who was skinned!
"What a young body......"
The woman touched her skin and black hair with an intoxicated face, and her mouth spoke softly, but her tone was extremely old.
"It's such a waste, and a small headcatcher can't solve it."
The woman lowered her head, glanced at the dying paper man who was beaten, and spoke in a cold tone.
The words fell, and a finger was stretched out, which fell on the paper man's eyebrows, and a drop of black blood appeared, which was immediately absorbed by the paper man.
After absorbing the blood, the paper figure seemed to have eaten the Ten Perfection Tonic Pills, the miserable white color was dyed with a layer of red, the yin qi became more and more terrifying, and the broken arm appeared again in an instant.
"Boom"
The paper man killed again, his eyes were blood-red, and terrible marks were drawn on the ground.
Qi Zixiao looked at this scene, his face froze, without the slightest fear, and he fought with the other party again, at this time, Zheng Hu outside saw Ye Hongling and Zou Ying coming, and couldn't help frowning, "Why are you here?" ”
"How's it going?"
Ye Hongling didn't care, just looked at the house.
Zou Ying followed alongside, her hands tightly grasping the corners of Ye Hongling's clothes.
"We chased here, Zixiao went in to check, but there was no movement."
Zheng Hu opened his mouth and said, his brows furrowed, "I feel wrong, but I don't dare to leave easily, in case the other party takes the opportunity to escape, we can only return empty-handed." ”
"Then please ask Zheng Zhutou to help me take care of Miss Zou here, and I'll go in and have a look."
Ye Hongling opened her mouth in a deep voice, her eyes exuded a fierce battle intent, as a martial artist, fighting with the sky and the earth, it is endless fun, but it is not common to fight with ghosts, she really wants to try whether the spear skills of the Divine Spear Gate can compete with the ghosts and gods!
The words fell, and without waiting for Zheng Hu to say anything, Ye Hongling jumped up and went straight into the house.
In the house, Ye Hongling looked at his feet, there were some footprints, and looked up at the room in front of him, the door was broken, there was silence, and nothing seemed to have happened.
The doorway seemed to be shrouded in darkness, making it impossible to see what was going on inside.
Ye Hongling's eyes flashed, his true qi began to flow all over his body, and a red tasseled spear in his hand was tightly grasped, and he stepped into the room.
As soon as he came in, Ye Hongling sensed a violent surge of power, Qi Zixiao was fighting with a blood-red paper figure at this time, and not far away, a strange-looking woman was sitting at the head of the bed.
Just in an instant, Ye Hongling understood the current situation, she didn't hesitate, the spear burst out, turning into a huge drill.
"Sparks!"
As soon as it came up, it was a big move, and Ye Hongling understood that he could only deal with that weird woman if he united with Qi Zixiao to kill the paper man in front of him.
Seeing Ye Hongling make a move, Qi Zixiao also burst into a shout, the sword light skyrocketed, and with a "bang", it directly slashed at the paper man's body.
The paper man flew out upside down, Ye Hongling's shot happened to fall on the paper man's body, and the powerful true qi fell on it, and the paper man "poof", a raging flame appeared, and in a blink of an eye, it burned out.
The two join forces, and the three strong people must also retreat, let alone a paper man.
Solving the paper man, the two of them looked at the woman not far away, Ye Hongling's face turned slightly pale, this shot just now consumed nearly one-third of her true qi, fortunately, in the past few days, she has once again had an understanding of the marksmanship at the level of entering the gods, and it will not be a blow that will be completely wiped out.
"It's annoying."
At this moment, the woman turned to look at them, with a smile on her face, but her mouth was spitting out old and cold words.
"I wanted to take your life, but unfortunately, you don't cherish ......"
When the words fell, a rag doll appeared in the woman's hand, and when she saw the rag doll, Qi Zixiao's face froze, "Sure enough, it's you, Granny Ma!" ”
"Hee-hee, you've been recognized, but it's okay, you're a dead person anyway."
Woman, no, Granny Ma smiled with a smile, "Actually, I don't want to kill her, who made my mother-in-law I need such a layer of skin, young, full of vitality, with this layer of skin, mother-in-law can do too much......"
"You shouldn't stop me, otherwise, you might be able to live a little longer......"
With that, she slashed her arm with her bright red nails, and sticky, black blood flowed out and landed on the rag doll, dyeing it black.
"Go ahead and kill them."
Granny Ma spoke softly and threw the rag doll out directly.
As the words fell, the rag doll seemed to be endowed with some kind of spirituality, and a pair of eyes stared at the two strangely, as if they wanted to remember their faces.
Seeing this scene, Qi Zixiao's eyes were solemn, and a faint crisis emerged, as if this inconspicuous rag doll could pose a great threat to him.
"Huh"
Suddenly, Qi Zixiao's eyes were dark, and he only had time to raise the long knife horizontally and put it in front of him, and the next moment, he was blasted out.
