Volume 1 Soul Academy Chapter 20 Shocking Change
Although the experience of the four Lei Luo today was a little rough, their luck seemed to be good.
After leaving the tomb of the God Emperor, he met the caravan returning to the city again, and he did not walk.
Along the way, I packed some food in a cloth bag, and it was already evening when I returned to the Soul Inn.
Yan Dan never recovered his look, his spirit was tense, and after experiencing a bumpy journey, he fell asleep on Yan Yaling's shoulder.
Yan Yaling carried her sleeping boudoir friend back to the lounge.
After settling Yan Dan, Yan Yaling came to Lei Luo's lounge again.
Lei Luo and Han Lingxuan were also waiting for her.
Seeing the little princess enter the house, the two teenagers put the food on the table and prepared to eat together.
The meal was simple, with only lean meat and a few fruits and vegetables, just enough to eat.
The three of them ate in silence, and Yan Yaling and Han Lingxuan both peeked at Lei Luo from time to time, as if they were observing the young man's actions.
Although Han Lingxuan and Yan Yaling peeked very secretly, but all the way, Lei Luo had already noticed the strangeness of these two people on the way back to the inn, and now he finally couldn't help it, and asked, "What did you two find, why did you keep staring at me?"
"No, you're wrong. Yan Yaling waved her hand, a little embarrassed, she didn't expect her movements to be discovered by Lei Luo.
Han Lingxuan was very familiar with Lei Luo, but he didn't mean to hide it, so he replied: "Luo, I didn't expect you to have research in controlling emotions!"
"What do you mean?" Lei Luo was stunned for a moment, not understanding Han Lingxuan's question.
Although Yan Yaling lowered her head and ate her food, her attention was focused on Lei Luo.
Han Lingxuan then asked, "I think Xiao Dan's mind is already very strong, but now he hasn't recovered from his fear, how did you overcome it? What did you experience on the fourth layer of the Divine Emperor's Tomb?"
Lei Luo began to think, as if he was sorting out his thoughts, and slowly replied: "When I entered that layer, I instantly lost consciousness, and after I came back to my senses, I immediately felt a chill to my bones, I can't say for sure what kind of feeling, it was a bit like I didn't exist at that moment. ”
Han Lingxuan and Yan Yaling listened quietly, and also fell into deep thought.
Ray Luo continued: "Isn't it easy to overcome fear? think about other issues and distract yourself, so that you will not focus on the things you fear. There was also a rhetorical question in his tone, which Lei Luo had always done to overcome his fears.
Although the answer was very simple and clear, Han Lingxuan and Yan Yaling were still puzzled, was this something that could be done so easily?
Yan Yaling sighed a little, the little princess suddenly remembered that when she first experienced the war, she had seen the scene of corpses all over the field, the coercion of countless strong people, and even her first time killing someone, these things would leave a heavy shadow in her heart, and she couldn't disperse for a long time, Yan Yaling also knew that she needed to be distracted at that time, but when she really experienced it, she couldn't control herself at all.
Perhaps, this is Lei Luo's talent.
Han Lingxuan and Yan Yaling couldn't guess it, and they couldn't learn it, so they directly gave up asking.
At this time, the three of them all felt that the commercial street outside the inn was gradually becoming a little noisy, and they vaguely heard countless angry shouts and frightened calls.
Opening the wooden window, you can see that the street is now filled with people, and everyone is hurrying in the direction of the management tower.
Nervous, fearful, flustered, serious.
For a time, many emotions can be seen in the expressions on people's faces.
At the same time, the door to Relo's house was opened.
The person who came was Yan Dan, and the girl's face was a little pale, obviously not recovering.
"What's going on?" Yan Dan's voice revealed exhaustion, and the chaotic environment affected her from resting.
Lei Luo replied in a deep voice: "I don't know, everyone is going to the management tower, it doesn't seem like a good thing, let's go and have a look." ”
The four then left the inn and followed the crowd.
There were a lot of people, everyone pushed each other and passed shoulders one after another, and the four teenagers and girls were completely separated for a while.
Although Lei Luo was the tallest of the four, he was obviously not comparable to adults, and he couldn't find his way in the crowd, so he had to move along the crowd.
After a while, the crowd stopped, and Relo saw the building of the management tower through the gap, and continued to walk through the crowd.
The ten-year-old boy had a clear advantage, finding a gap to move forward, and soon, Lei Luo was out of the crowd.
The first sight made Lei Luo break out in a cold sweat.
Dozens of heavily armed soldiers stopped the crowd with stern expressions, creating a clearing near the entrance to the management tower.
There were three people in front of the management tower, two of whom were familiar to Lei Luo.
Shenghao and Guangyoutang.
There was also a person lying motionless on the ground, while Sheng Hao and Guangyoutang were looking at the person on the ground seriously.
At this time, Lei Luo only felt a chill in his heart, and a chill hit his throat.
He retched for a while, and his face turned a lot whiter, but Lei Luo still looked at the boy who looked less than twenty years old lying on the ground again.
The boy's eyes were wide open and he looked terrified, but the neck where his body and head were connected were completely disconnected, and blood was still dripping slowly from the disconnection.
Seeing this, Lei Luo felt a chill again, and almost threw up.
"What's wrong with you?"
At this time, a slightly familiar and unfamiliar voice came from behind Lei Luo.
Lei Luo looked back sideways, couldn't help but be stunned, and said in surprise: "Why are you here?"
"I've been there all along, it's just that you haven't noticed, haven't you seen this scene?" Yue Yiqian asked rhetorically, the black-haired girl also squeezed to Lei Luo's side at some point, or was it really as she said that it had always been there, but Lei Luo didn't find it.
"Oh, yes, it's the first time I've seen you. Maybe it was Yan Yaling's first impression that Lei Luo had always maintained a sense of distance from Yue Yiqian, and he was a little cold when he spoke.
Yue Yiqian was stunned, although she didn't know why, the girl could feel Lei Luo's indifference.
"What now?"
At this time, someone in the already noisy crowd shouted, which instantly ignited the anger of the residents.
"This is a sanctuary!
"This hasn't happened in the Sanctuary for nearly a hundred years!
"It's horrible, it's the first time I've seen it. ”
"Holy Lord, find the murderer!"
......
Perhaps with the presence of Sheng Hao, the residents were more angry and shouted one after another.
"For the first time in the past ten years, there have been no homicides in the main cities of the ten countries. Yue Yiqian whispered, as if she was talking to Lei Luo.
Lei Luo was shocked when he heard this, although what Yue Yiqian said was the truth, but this tone sounded too calm.
Cold!
This is Lei Luo's feeling for Yue Yiqian now, faintly, Lei Luo smells some fishy sweetness, the smell of blood.
The crowd was noisy and chaotic, and the heavily armed soldiers began to look nervous, afraid of chaos.
Sheng Hao looked at the people on the ground, a little tired, and whispered to himself helplessly: "I just came back, how could this happen, it's really ......"
Guangyoutang suddenly spotted Han Lingxuan's figure in the crowd, and was slightly stunned, then motioned to the soldiers to let Han Lingxuan enter this blocked area.
Yan Dan and Yan Yaling followed, but the expressions of the three of them were a little depressed, and Han Lingxuan was even more puzzled.
Lei Luo also saw the three of them, so he shouted.
Guangyoutang turned around and found Lei Luo, so he also signaled for his release.
For a while, including Lei Luo and Yue Yiqian, five teenagers and girls from different kingdoms surrounded the corpse.
Sheng Hao only glanced at the five teenagers and girls, and did not speak, and then motioned for the soldiers to let a few residents in.
Seeing this scene, Lei Luo and the five of them instantly understood Sheng Hao's behavior, and they were all silent and waited quietly.
I didn't expect it at first, but Guangyoutang reacted instantly after seeing Sheng Hao's movements, his expression remained unchanged, and he suddenly felt a little afraid and regretful in his heart.
What is this doing yourself?
If you accidentally say something, the public recognizes the identities of Lei Luo and the others, in case the murderer is still at the scene, the result is unimaginable.
Thinking of this, Guangyoutang took a deep look at Sheng Hao, full of gratitude.
Sheng Hao looked at the few people who were released around him, and asked flatly: "You are all people who are standing in the nearest position, you must have been here for a long time, tell me, have you seen anything unusual, or do you know anything?"
Standing with Lei Luo and the five others were two teenagers, a young woman, and four middle-aged people.
"No, I was just looking for my partner, sorry. Lei Luo spoke first, after all, he was only let go after shouting, and he must explain the reason to the public.
"Well, then you should hurry up and call your friends away, this is not the place for children. Sheng Hao waved his hand helplessly, signaling several teenagers and girls to leave, but in his heart, he was very satisfied with Lei Luo's reaction, and the corners of his mouth inadvertently showed a gentle smile, which looked very natural.
Lei Luo and the five of them glanced at each other, then pulled each other away, and took the two teenagers they didn't know with them along the way.
Returning to the crowd again, the five of them quietly watched the murder scene, ignoring the two teenagers.
"I see, my lord, that when this young man left the Tower, he suddenly seemed to be caught in the air by something, and he became like this after falling. There was a middle-aged man shouting in the crowd, which instantly attracted people's attention.
"yes! That's it!
"I happened to be about to enter the management tower, and I saw it, like something was in the air. ”
Several more voices rang out in the crowd.
Sheng Hao motioned for the soldiers to take the shouters out, and then motioned for the soldiers to evacuate the crowd of onlookers, and then turned around and entered the management tower alone.
In the panic, several soldiers grabbed the five Lei Luo and quietly guided the young girls into the back door of the management tower.
At this time, the management tower was empty, apparently blocked.
The soldiers motioned for the five to go to the guest room on the second floor, and then stayed on the first floor of the management tower.
"I was so stupid, I almost made a big mistake!" As soon as they went up to the second floor, Lei Luo and the five of them heard Guangyoutang's apologetic tone.
"Well, they're coming, you can explain it yourself. Seeing the figures of the five teenagers and girls, Sheng Hao smiled: "By the way, how do you know them?"
Guangyoutang bowed slightly to Lei Luo and the five people, apologized, and said, "I met at the auction, in fact, I only know Prince Luo and Prince Ling Xuan. ”
The five teenagers and girls all said that they didn't care, after all, the matter had passed, Han Lingxuan said with a smile: "Uncle Youtang is also a very good person to get along with. ”
Sheng Hao glanced at the five people, his gaze finally stayed on Yan Yaling, and said helplessly: "Why are you everywhere, it's really a headache." ”
Noticing Sheng Hao's gaze, Yan Yaling was also a little dissatisfied, and replied, "Uncle, who are you?
Sheng Hao pouted helplessly, he was already upset, and he was even more annoyed when he saw this little girl.
"Straight to the point. Sheng Hao's expression was much more serious, and he said solemnly: "Now that this kind of thing happens, you will go back to the academy tonight, and I will arrange for the forest rangers to protect you." ”
Guangyoutang, who was always a little apologetic, heard this, and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, you guys go back first, if you need something, I'll arrange for someone to send it over." ”
"This is the richest man in our Land of Light, so please ask him if you need anything. Sheng Hao introduced Guangyou Hall to the five people, and at the same time, he was also introducing the academy to Guangyou Hall, "Friend Hall, now only Guangzun, you, me, and the Forest Ranger know the location of the academy in the entire holy domain, today you can bring two reliable guys to go there in person, don't let others know." ”
Lei Luo and the five of them all sensed Sheng Hao's seriousness and knew that this matter was not simple, so they listened quietly to the arrangement, and even Yan Yaling stopped talking.
Sheng Hao looked at the five teenagers and girls, and then said: "It's almost night, you guys hurry up, and leave the things you need to buy to the richest man, Youtang, you have to go to the academy more in the future and buy some gifts." ”
Guangyoutang originally had this intention, but now that Sheng Hao has spoken, he agrees with it.
"Alright, you guys, let's go without delay!"
Sheng Hao was really bored at the moment, and his tone was a little angry.
As a hero, if this murder is not handled well, the reputation of the Land of Light will cease to exist.
