Chapter 20: Black Hair
At this time in early autumn, the weather is relatively dry, and in the ventilated living room, there are water dripping, which is very abnormal!
Ah Tian touched the back of his ear lightly, then raised his head and looked at the top of the beam.
In an instant, he showed a frightened look, and the whole person stood there dumbfounded, his lips trembled, and his voice became slurred!
"Ah... Fortune! Above! There's on it ... Situation"
Li Huaiyun retracted the foot he had just taken, looked up at the roof, and the pillar on the top of the beam was entangled in a large piece of damp long black hair,
Unlike the water prison, these long black hairs are always stationary and do not writhe.
"Danger! Let's get out of here! Go and tell the hall master! Ah Tian clenched his saber and shouted in horror, he didn't want to be injured again!
Li Huaiyun grabbed Ah Tian, who was about to run out, his expression was flat, and his eyes kept staring at the long black hair wrapped around the pillar.
"Don't panic yet! There is no movement in this hair at the moment! ”
"Just in case!"
"If you want to do it, when we come in and search, we do it! Won't wait until now! ”
"Could it be that the hair that disappeared from the water prison came here?"
Li Huaiyun shook his head, "I don't know, this thing is now wrapped around the beams and pillars of the house, and there is no movement, I feel that I need something to make it move!" Like the sorcerers who manipulate the dead! ”
When Ah Tian heard this explanation, he also calmed down, his eyes were sharp, and he raised his hand to point to the north corner of the beam, "Look, something is hanging there!" ”
Li Huaiyun fixed his eyes and saw that it was a tuft of black hair the size of a finger, one end tied by a rope, hanging in the corner of the north!
Strangely, there was not a single wind in the whole room, but the black hair hanging there fluttered gently, as if beckoning, which was extremely strange.
The two of them broke out in a cold sweat at this strange scene, and wanted to leave the house immediately.
Li Huaiyun frowned and said in a deep voice, "Why don't you get that handful of hair down and take a look." ”
Ah Tian shook his head, he didn't agree with that, although it was said that those hairs were not moving at the moment, but there was no guarantee that they would suddenly attack, "You have to inform the hall master first!" I'm worried it's going to be the same as when I was in a water prison. ”
"That's too troublesome, come and go, maybe let this thing slip away, you can't watch the clue break."
"That being said, man, but I'm afraid it's going to be quite dangerous."
"We are the ones who slay the demons, and we should not be afraid of these monsters."
Li Huaiyun could clearly feel that Ah Tian had become a little timid, and he speculated that it was the matter of the water prison that had made him frightened until now.
"Ah Tian, you give me the knife, and then go out, as soon as you find that something is wrong, immediately go and report to the hall master."
"When you come back, it's too late, don't do it! The hall master is right, our cultivation level is too low to deal with this thing. ”
Li Huaiyun took a deep breath, "If you can't deal with it, you have to try!" ”
Ah Tian only thought about retreating to the courtyard safely, no matter how much he tried to dissuade Li Huaiyun, it was useless! I had no choice but to draw my saber and hand it over.
"Be careful!" He cautiously exited the drawing room.
Li Huaiyun took the saber, then stood at that corner and put it down, adjusted the angle, and threw the knife up hard, under his accurate calculation, the saber just cut the rope hanging from the black hair.
The handful of black hair slowly descended from the roof, and it was strange that water was constantly being thrown out of the hair as it fell.
Li Huaiyun took two steps back, blocked the droplets of water with his hand, and then caught the falling saber, he stood aside, watching the handful of hair fall smoothly to the ground.
"Next!" He threw the saber back to Ah Tian, then crouched down, put the brass gloves on, and began to pull at the handful of hair.
To his disappointment, there was nothing special about this hair rub other than being wet.
Li Huaiyun got up, took a few pieces of paper from the table, and prepared to wrap the black hair in the paper, "Take it back and show it to Si Zheng, maybe you can know the origin of this hair?" ”
Seeing that there was no danger, Ah Tian walked up, "Or send it back now!" ”
"We've got other places we haven't checked!" Li Huaiyun said, just now I have found such a clue! There are still 108,000 miles away from the truth, and it is a waste of time to go back at will.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the side of the door, and the two of them noticed a different aura almost at the same time.
"Who!" They looked over the gate and saw a mysterious man in a black robe with a face hidden in his hood, standing silently by the door.
The mysterious man in the black robe slowly walked into the living room, and the narrow figure reflected on the ground slowly cracked from the middle and turned into two shadows.
Li Huaiyun and Ah Tian realized the danger and immediately put on a posture, ready to strike at any time!
"Who are you? Why is it here! ”
The mysterious man, dressed in a black robe with his whole face hidden under his hood, did not respond to him, but walked straight forward.
The dark shadows on the ground had reached their feet.
"Stop! You're moving forward, I'm going to do it! ”
The mysterious man still kept dissuading them, and when they walked towards them, Li Huaiyun and Ah Tian were ready to make a move, but they found that they were completely unable to move at this time.
Although they could sense their own bodies, they could not move despite their best efforts.
The mysterious man stood in front of Li Huaiyun, stretched out his ink-black arm, took away the paper with his hair on him, and then turned around to leave, seemingly uninterested in them.
When the shadow left Li Huaiyun's feet, at that moment, he felt that his body was unrestrained.
"Give it back to me!" He activated the qi machine, ready to step forward to attack, the mysterious man who was at the door of the meeting room.
To his surprise, the black-robed man only raised a finger, and several cracks immediately appeared on the ground in the living room.
In the darkness of the cracks, a large number of arms stretched out, and those arms were mutilated with black dirt, and the flesh on them was also black and rotten.
Li Huaiyun and Ah Tian's feet were grabbed by those arms and couldn't move, in a hurry, he directly punched the ground, although several arms were broken, but there were still arms grabbing his feet, making it difficult for him to move forward.
What kind of person is this guy, and he actually has such strange abilities.
He bent down and kept knocking out the arm he was holding on his leg with his fists. This kind of conservative behavior can only make him watch the black-robed man disappear into the courtyard.
Ah Tian drew his saber and directly cut off those arms that came out of the ground, and got out of trouble first, and he came forward to help Li Huaiyun get out of danger.
"Ah Yun! Pretty good! ”
"Horse's! What the hell is going on. Li Huaiyun stood at the door and scolded loudly towards the courtyard.
When they turned to look into the room, they found that the cracks in the ground were gone, only the puddle of wet water.
This scene was a deep surprise to the two.
Li Huaiyun took the token in his hand, and then he quickly said to Ah Tian, "That guy must not have run far, I'll chase it, I'll leave it to you here, hurry up and contact Si Zheng." ”
"Good!"
At this point, he immediately took a brisk stride, leaped up to the wall, surveyed the surrounding streets, and then ran towards a narrow alley to the north.
When he came to the north, the narrow, stinking alley.
He judged that the mysterious man in the black robe must be hiding in it, and there were many passers-by walking around in the other alleys.
The situation in this small alley is relatively complicated, and the area around it is full of garbage and discarded objects, and the smell of various smells is disgusting.
Li Huaiyun looked around, the floor and walls of this alley were quite old, the skin was broken, and the walls were quite unclean.
That guy must be around here! He stood in the alley, his hands clenched into fists, always paying attention to the situation around him, from the previous situation, it seemed that the appearance of this black-robed man was always elusive, so it must be the same here.
At this time, the sun was shining, and his shadow was stretched out little by little in the alley.
Li Huaiyun continued to walk towards the depths of the alley, and he felt that his surroundings were very quiet, as if he had entered a silent world.
In that instant, he leaned down and picked up the stone from the ground and threw it at the wall on one side, "Show up!" I already know where you are! ”
"Huh!" A cold voice came from that side, and under a willow tree five or six meters high, a dark shadow appeared there.
"You can sense such a faint fluctuation of the qi machine, presumably when you step into the qi refining mirror, you should have a long time to hone your perception."
"Most people don't exercise much because it wastes a lot of time,"
"You know a lot! I'll just be praising me! Who are you? ”
"Hahaha!" The black-robed man let out a dull laugh, "Are you demon slayers all stupid? Why am I answering your question? ”
Li Huaiyun raised the corners of his mouth, "Because I'm dying, you will tell the secret to the dying person, and you won't lose anything!" ”
The black-robed man stood there, stunned for a moment, Li Huaiyun's words made him a little overwhelmed, he hadn't seen himself say that he was going to die, let people tell the secret quickly!.
"You want to take my words? I'm not that stupid! ”
Ay! Failed! It seems that this really can't fool people.
"How dare I take your words!" Li Huaiyun said, "When you were in the living room, you could have killed us, but you didn't do it, I'm chasing here now, aren't you just looking for death?" ”
"Do you regret it?"
"Regret! However, if I knew your identity and what the water prison case was all about, I would have been blind to death. ”
The reason why Li Huaiyun said this was because he couldn't move at this time, and after entering this alley, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.
After throwing the stone, the whole body suddenly seemed to be entangled by an invisible rope, exactly like when it was in the living room.
"Shouldn't you be honest with the dying?"
The black-robed man took a few steps forward from the shade of the tree, his steps were extremely light, and he couldn't hear any sound on this rough ground.
"I'm not going to tell you honestly! Go down below with your questions and ask those who were burned to death by the fire! ”
A black shadow rose from the ground, and a sharp glow could be faintly seen inside.
"Wait a minute!" Li Huaiyun shouted loudly, "Since you don't tell me anything, you can always let me see what you look like under the black cloth, this is not too much to ask!" ”
The black-robed man pondered for a moment, "Since you want to see it, then I will fulfill your wish, and you don't want to be scared to death!" ”
The man took a few more steps, leaned down, grabbed the hood with both hands, and slowly removed the black fabric from his head.
It was a terrifying face.
