Chapter 468 Burnt Black Beans
To be on the safe side, Ye Xingzhou asked again, "Can you see the special markings on the sword in his hand?"
Liu Gui'an thought about it carefully. The scene flashed by too quickly, and all he remembered was his first impression.
"There are marks on the sword, but I can't see how many there are." Liu Guian apologized.
It turned out to be the Demon Lord who killed the players.
Ye Xingzhou looked at the bloody palm print, his thoughts churning.
So far, Ye Xingzhou has encountered five heads missing sphenoid bones, and all these players died at the hands of the Demon Lord.
There were seven notches on the sword, and two players' heads were missing.
Ye Xingzhou lowered his eyes.
Now he is still alive and doing his mission only because the Demon Lord needs him to find the Demon Summoning Scroll to temporarily contain the wind and rain.
It seems that once the Demon Lord has used the players to complete their tasks, he will ruthlessly kill them.
The next time the Demon Lord kills him might be after he finds the Demon Summoning Scroll.
Ye Xingzhou couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
If the Demon Lord and Feng Yulai fight and both suffer losses, wouldn't it be a permanent solution if he kills them both?
wrong.
Ye Xingzhou shook his head.
There is also a right protector who has never appeared.
Regardless of whether it was related to the right protector or not, Ye Xingzhou pressed the metaphorical hint on the right protector's head.
Because the right protector is too cunning, and only he knows whether the shadow stone can seal the shadow.
What kind of plan is the Right Protector setting up by interfering in Beidian City?
One is immortal, one is a ghost cultivator, and one is a vengeful spirit.
Ye Xingzhou was almost trapped like a nesting doll by these three inhuman creatures.
It seems that he is so radiant that he attracts non-human things.
Ye Xingzhou had a wooden face.
Ren Wangzhu, who was carried on his shoulder, moved a little and opened his eyes in a daze.
"Brother, I feel like vomiting."
How can I not vomit if I keep carrying it upside down on my shoulders?
Ye Xingzhou put the man down, his eyes swept across Ren Wangzhu's hazy eyes that had just woken up, and then he scanned his shadow with the photo stone.
His eyes were clear and clean, yet a little hazy.
Seeing Ye Xingzhou looking at him like that, Ren Wangzhu tensed his back.
This look was so familiar, just like the inquiring and suspicious look Jiang Keshanhuai had when he first arrested him.
Ren Wangzhu woke up instantly, took out the immortal rope and handed it to Ye Xingzhou with both hands.
"Brother, I'm a suspect again, tie me up."
He was so proactive and sensitive that it made everyone present feel uncomfortable.
Ren Wangzhu didn't even question him, he just tried to please him cautiously.
Ye Xingzhou pursed his lips, apologizing, "Sorry."
The Right Protector can parasitize shadows. If the Right Protector really interferes with Beidian City, Ye Xingzhou has to pay great attention.
Observing Ren Wangzhu's eyes was just to see if there were any signs of being parasitized by the Immortal.
"It's okay, Senior Brother. I won't blame you."
Ren Wangzhu rubbed his head against Ye Xingzhou's shoulder and tied his right wrist with the immortal rope.
He handed the other end of the rope to Ye Xingzhou, "Brother, hold on to me. I'll feel at ease."
"Feel sorry."
Ye Xingzhou, who is usually eloquent, now blurts out another dry apology.
Ye Xingzhou raised his hand and hooked the rope with his slender fingertips.
Ren Wangzhu lowered his eyes, staring at the knuckles, his voice very low.
"Brother, do you really want to untie it?"
"It was my fault just now." Ye Xingzhou apologized for the third time.
Ren Wangzhu shook his head, "Don't apologize, Senior Brother. Seeing you feel bad makes me feel bad too."
With a flick of his fingertips, the rope that was tied around Ren Wangzhu's wrist came loose. Ye Xingzhou untied the rope and returned it.
Ren Wangzhu pretended to smile casually, and most of the childishness between his eyebrows faded away. Only his puppy eyes were still bright when he looked at Ye Xingzhou.
"Alright, Senior Brother, I don't want to see you being so sentimental."
"Um."
Ye Xingzhou raised his hand and touched his head. Ren Wangzhu squinted his eyes comfortably, feeling a sense of beauty as if his soul was being sucked away.
"Brother, you haven't touched my head for a long time."
"Then I'll touch you more often in the future."
"Okay." Ren Wangzhu held up two fingers. "You have to touch it at least twice a day!"
"Ahem."
Liu Guian coughed.
Ren Wangzhu looked around in confusion, and he and Ye Xingzhou turned their heads at the same time, meeting three strange gazes.
Mei You stood sideways with his arms folded, while Liu Guian and Yan He stood on one side. The three of them looked between the two of them, each with a different expression as they watched their intimate actions.
"You guys are too clingy." Mei You sighed.
"I think so too, a little bit." Yan He agreed in a low voice.
Not to mention Liu Guian who was interrupted by coughing.
One second he was immersed in the guilt of being wronged, and the next second he had already patted his head and made peace.
The stickiness is like the sticky rice in rice cakes.
Ye Xingzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, and stretched out his evil hand, "Why, you want to touch it too?"
In one word, shut up everyone.
"Brother, it's enough for you to touch me." Ren Wangzhu laughed foolishly and came up again.
"good."
Ye Xingzhou put his hand on his shoulder, and Ren Wangzhu finally sighed with satisfaction. He subconsciously looked to the other side of Ye Xingzhou, and couldn't help feeling disappointed again.
"I haven't seen Meng Zhi for a long time."
"Brother, I miss Senior Sister Yue Qian a little bit."
"I also want to ask Senior Brother Xuan Elder... I miss Meng Zhi a little bit."
Ren Wangzhu counted off a string of names with his fingers, then asked, "Brother, if we find the Demon Summoning Scroll, can we return to the sect?"
"Well, we can come back once we find it." Ye Xingzhou repeated in a low voice.
You can return it once you find it.
Ren Wangzhu narrowed his eyes and immediately picked up his energy, "Then let's find it quickly."
Ye Xingzhou laughed.
This kind of joy is enough.
Liu Guian, who was walking in front and leading the way, suddenly stopped. He bent down and picked up a charred ball the size of a fingernail on the ground.
"I also saw this at the city gate when I entered the city."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xingzhou subconsciously looked over.
Beidian City is filled with the smell of blood, rust, and stale dust all year round, and the ground is covered with weeds everywhere. This burnt black ball is really inconspicuous, like a dung ball from a dung beetle pile.
Liu Gui'an sniffed it.
"What's the smell?" Ye Xingzhou asked.
"Smell it." Liu Gui'an said.
Ye Xingzhou took the black ball from Liu Guian, twisted it lightly with his fingertips, and the burnt ball turned into ashes. He put it under his nose and smelled it.
The smell of burning dominates, with a very light, almost fading herbal scent.
"What is this?" Ye Xingzhou didn't realize what this burnt bean was for a moment.
Liu Guian shook his head, "I don't know either."
As they walked further into the city, they subconsciously paid attention.
"Brother, I picked up one too." Ren Wangzhu handed the charred bean he had just found to Ye Xingzhou.
The charred beans spread from the exit of the city to the city, like a mark.
Looking at the charred marks again, it should have been burned not long ago.
Could it be that someone left it here?
Ye Xingzhou pinched open another burnt black bean and put it under his nose to smell it.
The scent of herbs was so faint that it was almost imperceptible, but the more he smelled it, the more familiar it felt.
"Let's find our way first."
The burnt black beans scattered around the city and finally stopped at the city gate.
Ye Xingzhou frowned slightly.
What's the meaning?
Is this to lure them out of the city?
