Chapter 31: Danger in the Dark

After walking forward in the darkness for more than ten steps, the dim light of the next oil lamp slowly shone through, and Xiao An finally heard the burst of sobbing, faintly getting closer and closer.

Boss Huo, who followed Bai Ling'er into the second-floor warehouse, was already very close to Bai Ling'er at this time. He hid in the corner, and could hear the sound of Bai Ling'er flipping the box.

The clever Bai Ling'er had already found Boss Huo's pile of goods, and under the illumination of the oil lamp, he found that many of those small boxes were stuffed in the gap between the big boxes, and it took a lot of effort to take out each one. Putting the oil lamp aside, Bai Ling'er gritted her teeth and slowly moved those big boxes, but she was already tired and sweating profusely from the work of tea.

Every time she pulled out a small box, Bai Ling'er was happy, but as soon as she opened it, she sighed lightly. But the emperor lived up to his wishes, and when Bai Ling'er opened the twentieth box, he finally saw the five jade flutes lying there quietly in the middle of the soft brocade. Gently picking up these exquisite jade flutes from the brocade wrap, Bai Ling'er showed a relieved smile on her face, she finally found the jade flute carved with phoenix patterns.

Bai Ling'er took out the phoenix jade flute, wrapped the remaining four, and piled up the boxes at random, not bothering to restore the original state.

Just as Bai Ling'er put away the jade flute and was about to pick up the oil lamp and leave, a long and narrow black shadow appeared in front of her

Seeing this, Bai Ling'er was suddenly startled, her body trembled suddenly, and a box that was not placed securely fell to the ground, making a heavy muffled sound.

Xiao'an, who was walking alone at the bottom of the ground, was already scared, and when he heard a muffled sound falling from the sky, he was so frightened that he almost jumped, and the aquatic products around him were covered with a dense splash.

Fortunately, Xiao An's temperament was relatively calm, and he just gritted his teeth and hugged his head, and did not make other sounds. Kogan noticed that after the muffled sound, the faint sobbing stopped. It wasn't long before he heard someone talking, and Kogishi cautiously stopped, leaning his head against the deck to listen.

"Boss Huo?" his face condensed slightly, and Bai Ling'er's fingers grasped the box behind him.

"It's unexpected, isn't it?" Boss Huo raised his head slightly in the darkness and said with a smile.

"Why are you here?" Bai Ling'er's pupils shrank, embossing the tension in her heart.

"Then Ling'er, why are you here?" The corners of his eyes narrowed slightly, a faint sneer appeared on Boss Huo's lips, and seeing that Bai Ling'er didn't answer, he continued: "As for why I am here, in fact, my purpose is the same as yours." It's just that I still don't know what that Xiao of Lu Dao looks like, how is it?Bai Ling'er, have you found it?"

"Are you also looking for this Xiao?" Bai Ling'er said coldly with a slight tremor at the corner of her mouth.

"Ha Luha, it seems that Miss Ling'er has already found that Xiao, right?" Boss Huo tilted his face sideways and smiled happily.

"You are despicable, you actually borrowed my hand to find this Xiao!" Bai Ling'er said indignantly in a soft voice.

"Now that you know the Dao, give me that Xiao. Boss Huo knocked on the folding fan in his hand and said indifferently.

"Don't you think, I found it with great difficulty, how can I give it to you so easily. Bai Ling'er subconsciously shook the jade flute hidden in her sleeve, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

"To give, or not to give?" After a pause, Boss Huo's mouth set off a serene arc.

"You say first, how did you know that I was looking for this Xiao?" Seeing Boss Huo's cold face, Bai Ling'er's heart shrank slightly, and she looked at Boss Huo fixedly.

"Since it's all about time, I might as well tell you. Boss Huo's face was soothing, he paced leisurely, and said slowly: "Do you know why I promised you to follow me?"

"Isn't it because I'm a blood magician?" Bai Ling'er stared at Boss Huo without blinking, and said calmly.

"Heh" Boss Huo chuckled lightly and said, "Then you are wrong, I am not because you are a blood magician, nor because you are young and beautiful, do you remember the first time you saw me? You said that you want to follow me to learn to do business, I laughed at the time, what kind of business do you have a little girl's family, you can see through it at a glance if you have no intentions." I said let me think about it, I asked you to go back and wait for three days, remember?"

"Of course I remember, you say!" Seeing Boss Huo smiling so lightly, Bai Ling'er was worried in her heart, and a look of anxiety floated in Shui Ling's eyes.

"In those three days, I have sent someone to find out the details and intentions of you, of course, I also heard some information about that Xiao, and I heard that Xiao can open a seal, Miss Ling'er, is that so?" Glancing at Bai Ling'er obliquely, Boss Huo said with some pride.

"Heh, what's the matter?Do you think you can still take this Xiao back from me?Don't forget, I'm a blood magician!" Bai Ling'er smiled coldly, her eyebrows raised confidently.

"Ha Lu Ha. Boss Huo laughed, with a thick mockery in his laughter, and then said indifferently: "Miss Ling'er, there is one more thing I forgot to tell you, I am also a blood magician—a seventh-degree blood master. As far as I know, you're only fourth, right?"

"What are you talking about, are you a seventh-degree blood master?" Bai Ling'er's face changed suddenly, and Bai Ling'er's eyes widened in horror and asked in disbelief.

"How is it? Do you think there is still a need to struggle now?" Boss Bai said indifferently.

Bai Ling'er knew very well in her heart that with the difference in strength between her fourth-degree blood master and her seventh-degree, she was not his opponent at all.

"What do you want?" Bai Ling'er took a step back, fear in her eyes.

"Originally, I just wanted to find that Xiao, but then I thought about it, this ship will not be able to dock for a few days, and I am afraid that something will happen to you if you are kept, so it is more reassuring to kill you. In the dim light of the fire, Boss Huo's face suddenly turned indifferent, and even revealed an imperceptible coldness.

"Heh, kill me, kill me, do you think you can open that seal?" Bai Ling'er was frightened, but she smiled indifferently.

"Oh, Miss Yi Ling'er means" Her face was slightly stunned, and Boss Huo's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt.

"Didn't you hear that you need to use this Xiao to play a sacrificial requiem to open the seal?

"In this way, it seems that it is still useful to keep you" Boss Huo touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and said: "If I don't kill you, I can only tie you up first." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a pool of dark red blood had begun to surge on the ground. Bai Ling'er didn't even have time to see clearly when Boss Huo started releasing blood, but what Bai Ling'er knew was that a seventh-degree blood master must be much faster than herself in terms of speed. And what was even more terrifying was that a seventh-degree blood master had already opened up a blood mark in his body, and the amount of blood that a blood mark could hold was unimaginable to ordinary people, it was like a vast ocean. Of course, Bai Ling'er also knew that although Boss Huo in front of him had opened a blood mark in his body, the amount of blood stored should not be so amazing, but compared to his own fourth-degree blood master, it was already very terrifying.
