Zhu Yunwen looked at the man in black robes, then smiled and said:

"So you don't have any useful information, right?"

When Zhu Yunwen asked this question, the man in black robes immediately showed a look of fear and said:

"I've told you everything I know, you have to spare my life."

Zhu Yunwen frowned, then looked at Zhao Qingzhu and said:

Did I promise him I would spare his life?

Zhao Qingzhu thought about it carefully, then said with a serious expression:

"This matter has never been mentioned, not even once."

Then Zhu Yunwen looked at the man in black robes and said:

"Did you hear that? We didn't have this agreement beforehand, so..."

The man in black robes stared wide-eyed at Zhu Yunwen.

He never expected that he would be so careless, but thinking about it, it makes sense, since there was no agreement on this matter beforehand.

He never said that if he told Zhu Yunwen everything he knew, Zhu Yunwen would spare his life.

At this point, the only thing to do is to beg for mercy:

"After all, I've already told you everything I know..."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunwen shook his head earnestly:

"So what? Your crimes are too grave. Just because you confess to me doesn't mean I'll be lenient with you."

As he spoke, Zhu Yunwen slowly stood up, then seemed to remember something and said to the man in black robes:

"At most, I can spare your life, but I will never save you. Just stay here and wait to die."

After saying that, Zhu Yunwen left with Zhao Qingzhu, leaving only the man in black robes screaming incessantly in the dilapidated temple.

He himself didn't know that in his condition, it was basically impossible for him to survive.

He was hit by two bullets; the first one did little damage, but the second one injured his internal organs.

He is now almost unable to move and is bleeding profusely. He will die when he bleeds out.

Even if he were discovered, it would be almost impossible to save him.

It was just his will to survive that made him think he still had a chance to live.

And so, Zhu Yuntong and Zhao Qingzhu left the dilapidated temple and went into the woods, where Zhu Yuntong found the man in black who had been tied to the tree earlier.

When the man in black saw Zhu Yunwen and his group come out, he said with a shocked expression:

"This is impossible! How could you have come out of the ruined temple? Isn't Lord Ghost-Faced Rakshasa inside?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunwen pursed his lips and said:

"The demon-faced Rakshasa you mentioned is already dead inside. Seeing how much respect you have for him, why don't you go to hell and keep him company? If he really is a ghost, he will probably take good care of you in the underworld."

The black man immediately showed a look of fear:

"You can't kill me..."

Zhu Yunwen sneered:

"Give me a reason..."

The man in black said:

"I'll give you some useful clues."

Zhu Yunwen nodded:

"Tell me about it. If it's useful, I might be interested."

The man in black then said:

“I know what they do with those girls.”

Zhu Yuntang frowned: "I know that too. Is there anything else that's useful? Otherwise, it seems difficult to save your life."

The man in black stared at Zhu Yunwen in shock, speechless for a long time. Zhu Yunwen knew that he probably didn't have any useful information left.

Zhu Yunwen then picked up the pistol. The man in black was terrified and wanted to beg for mercy, but with a bang, the intense pain almost made him lose consciousness.

Zhu Yunwen and Zhao Qingzhu returned to the inn. The moment they entered the inn, the waiter stared at them with wide eyes and an incredulous expression.

Zhu Yunwen glanced at the waiter and asked, "What's wrong?"

The waiter hurriedly said:

"you……"

Hearing the waiter's questioning words, Zhu Yunwen vaguely sensed something was amiss, but the waiter quickly added:

"Weren't you in the inn? When did you leave?"

Although he skillfully smoothed things over.

But Zhu Yunwen still found it very strange. His initial shock was definitely not due to how Zhu Yunwen and the others got out.

Zhu Yunwen, acting on a conditioned reflex, felt a strange suspicion towards this waiter.

Although he couldn't quite put his finger on what he suspected, Zhu Yunwen didn't elaborate further.

They prepared to go upstairs to rest together with Zhao Qingzhu.

After all, it's been a whole night of work.

However, just as Zhu Yunwen and Zhao Qingzhu were about to leave, the waiter stepped forward and said:

"Sir, here are some candles. I suggest you light them tonight. The nights here are not very peaceful, and lighting candles will make you feel more at ease."

Even if something happens, you'll feel safe. In the inn, young and beautiful women who stay there almost always light candles. Those who don't light candles have already encountered trouble.

Zhu Yunwen frowned and glanced at the waiter, even though the waiter's words were very sincere and made a lot of sense.

However, Zhu Yunwen felt that something was still not right.

He took the candle and said to the waiter with a smile:

"Okay, we'll light the candles."

After saying this, Zhu Yuntong and Zhao Qingzhu went back upstairs and entered the room. They lit the candles and examined them carefully for a while.

Zhao Qingzhu was about to get a good night's sleep when she looked at Zhu Yunwen and said:

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at the candle?"

Zhu Yuntong asked Zhao Qingzhu to open the window, and then sat down with Zhao Qingzhu by the window.
