Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Mask of Darkiron
Chu Xiu didn't know that an ordinary jailer would have these feelings, if he knew this, he would look at this jailer differently. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
However, it was just a different look, but it didn't make him spare Lao Li's life.
If these jailers were harming someone else, he might have reluctantly considered it.
But on the contrary, that person is Ye Jinyi.
It was precisely because it was Ye Jinyi that Chu Xiu had such good patience for them to take him to find the corpse, otherwise, when he first knew the truth, he would have asked the entire Tokyo Prison to bury Ye Jinyi.
Therefore, along the way, he just lowered his eyes and looked at the road under his feet, he didn't want to say anything, and he didn't want to think about anything.
His gaze was glazed, his mind was blank.
This kind of situation has only happened twice in his life, the first time was when he watched Yu Zhanyan jump off the cliff with Yu Langyan in his arms, and the other time was now.
He didn't know either, he would soon feel it a third time.
"What about people?"
A cold drink in front of him made his mind have some thoughts, and his eyes immediately cleared, and he raised his head sharply and walked forward quickly.
The cold drink was made by the man in black who was holding Lao Li, not only did he call it out like this, but even Wang Quan on the side exclaimed in a cold sweat, and looked at Lao Li with a calm face in horror.
Because, under the reflection of the torches, a large pit appeared in front of them, and next to the pit were scattered a few hoes and shovels stained with mud.
But it is clear that such a large pit is used to bury people, not to bury people.
Therefore, as long as the eyes are not blind, they should be able to see that there is nothing in this pit except the pit.
Chu Xiu looked at the big pit silently, his eyes were calm, but this calmness made people feel the terrifying aura of despair from the god of death even more.
"What about people?"
The black-clothed man named Yun Tan who was standing beside Chu Xiu Feng had already felt the extremely cold chill from Chu Xiu Peng's body, he took two steps forward, took a torch and shone it into the big pit, confirmed that there was nothing, and looked at Lao Li and asked the same question.
Lao Li said calmly: "We didn't completely bury him when we left that day. ā
Wang Quan was already in a cold sweat, he raised his hand and pointed at Lao Li and said in a trembling voice: "You, you Ā·Ā·Ā·Ā·Ā·Ā·"
Lao Li said again: "Because when we were burying him, a wolf appeared. ā
The rest of the words need not be further asaid, because everyone knows what will happen next.
No one would risk their own lives to save the bones of a dead man when a hungry wolf appeared.
Because even if a dead man is not swallowed by a hungry wolf, he will be eaten by insects and ants in the ground, and eventually rot and turn to dust.
In this way, a dead person might as well be eaten by a hungry wolf, so that at least a wolf can be satisfied.
Wang Quan was so trembling that he couldn't speak, because he was afraid.
He cursed Lao Li in his heart for being a fool and talking, because he was sure that no one could spare those who killed him when he knew that his friends had been gnawed to bones by wolves.
He thought he might be able to survive, but now, he was sure he didn't have a way out.
It was also for this reason that his legs began to swing incessantly.
I have to admit that Wang Quan is not only a bastard, but also an extremely smart bastard.
But that old Li's face did not change in the slightest, it was not that he did not know that he was dying, but that he did not have the slightest fear of death.
But he has some regrets, regrets that he hasn't seen his eldest daughter marry with his own eyes.
Chu Xiuping's eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he suddenly burst out laughing, and this laughter was still very hearty.
At this moment, the smile seemed extremely out of place.
But no one thought it strange, and the people standing around him did not relax because of this hearty laughter, but stood straighter and quieter.
They know what it means to laugh.
If a person is so angry that he laughs, and this person is still a fearless master, then you have to know that soon someone's head will be moving.
Soon, how fast?
As soon as Chu Xiu's laughter fell, before anyone could see his sword, two heads flew straight out from the necks of the two people and rolled down into the pit.
Because the speed of the sword was so fast, that after the skull flew out, blood splattered out from the slash of the neck, and the two headless bodies slowly fell into the pit.
Before Wang Quan and Lao Li even realized the arrival of death, their heads had been separated from their bodies, and their lives had come to an end.
But if Chu Xiu looked closely, he could see that Lao Li Wei's eyes still had a look of regret.
No one knew that he was feeling sorry for Chu Xiu's merciless sword.
Because of their blood, they stained this good sword.
But Lao Li never had a chance to know that Chu Xiu originally disdained to kill them with the Compassionless Sword, however, the Compassionless Sword was given to him by Yu Zhanyan, and he had to use the sword given to him by Yu Zhanyan to avenge Ye Jinyi, so as not to live up to this sword.
The air was quiet again, but in this night, there was a strong smell of blood, and there was a yin owl aura that Chu Xiu couldn't hide around him.
Yun Tan didn't know how to speak, he just glanced at the heads of the two people, and this time he swept the shovel and hoe on the side.
Suddenly, a conjecture flashed through his mind, and then he picked up the torch boy and carefully examined the surroundings of the pit.
After a while, he suddenly looked up at Chu Xiu and said, "Door master." ā
Chu Xiu raised his head a little dejectedly, and looked at him sadly.
Yun Tan's eyes were blazing and he said, "There is a Xuantie mask on the face of the night boy. ā
Ye Jinyi wears a dark iron mask on the left side of his face, and everyone who knows him knows about it, and this is not a thing worth wasting.
But when a person opens his mouth for something that is not worth wasting his tongue on, then it proves that it is not only worth wasting his tongue, but also his brain.
Chu Xiu's eyes froze for a moment, but for a moment, he also glanced at the land around them, and then his godless eyes suddenly flickered again.
It's not uncommon for Ye Jinyi to wear a mask on her face.
Strangely, a wolf will not only eat all the bones and clothes of a person, but also swallow a pair of exquisite dark iron masks into its belly.
There is no such thing in the world, unless the wolf is possessed by gluttony.
Therefore, can he guess that Ye Jinyi's body was not actually eaten by wolves, but was taken away.
There is no one in the world who sees a corpse and does not use it in a dug pit, but takes it away.
Unless, the person who is thought to be already dead, is not dead.
Chu Xiu's eyes suddenly glowed with brilliance again.
Chu Xiu Peng suddenly saw a few soil poria scattered on the ground, the poria was uprooted, it seemed that it had been thrown here a few days ago, and the berries and fibrous roots on it had dried up.
Obviously, there are no Poria cocos growing around here, and the people who dig this pit will not have the leisure to uproot these Poria cocos from the soil and throw them aside.
Poria cocos is a kind of medicinal material.
Although there are few herbs that can be found in this season, there are still medicine farmers who go up the mountain to pick herbs, which shows how difficult people's livelihood is.
Chu Xiu was not interested in these, but now he was glad that the people's livelihood was so difficult, he was not in the difficult life of others, he only cared about the life and death of Ye Jinyi.
Now, there is a great possibility that Ye Jinyi was rescued by the medicine farmer who went up the mountain to collect medicine.
Chu Xiu was half-squatting on the ground, raising his hand to put the few dry soil cocos in the palm of his hand, his voice was a little trembling, but he tried his best to calm himself down.
"Find people around you who are collecting medicine. ā
"Yes. ā
