Even she herself hadn't expected this, spider silk would actually become her weakness.
The coach was right, Yu Ze’s brain was indeed very useful.
Especially in combat.
No wonder he was able to violently clear so many dungeons with his solid gold trouble-making stick.
Josh relaxed: "Okay, I admit defeat, the captain is really awesome."
Yu Ze met her bright eyes like a deer. Her little face was flushed because of the high-intensity fight just now.
He moved his fingers slightly, noticing that their postures were a bit bad, and quickly stood up and cleared his throat: "Remember to pay the sparring fee."
Qiao Xi pretended not to hear and moved closer to the body to observe the situation.
"Huh? That's weird."
"What's wrong?" Yu Ze walked over.
Qiao Xi poked the skin of the corpse with his fingers in white silk gloves: "Captain, look, her body is still soft and warm, and even her cheeks are still pink."
Yu Ze took a look at her face and smiled: "Don't worry, I don't have any fans of you."
The corners of Josh's mouth twitched slightly: "...I'm serious."
Yu Ze was happy: "I'm serious too."
Josh felt the body's aorta and confirmed that it was really dead, which was even more strange.
"What kind of murder method can make the body still maintain warm body temperature and skin color after death? Except for the lack of heartbeat, she is almost the same as if she were alive."
Yu Ze took a look at the wound on her scalp and pulled open her eyelids: "But this person has been dead for at least five hours. Moreover, the wound on the top of the head is not fatal."
Josh frowned slightly.
Yu Ze stood up: "Check her whole body to see if she has any other wounds."
Josh nodded and reached out to unbutton the corpse's collar.
Yu Ze had turned around and stood by the window with his back to the window.
Josh curled his lips secretly, quite gentlemanly.
She secretly said "excuse me" and took off all the clothes on the corpse. A faint musky scent wafted out.
The body was carefully examined but no wounds, bruises or swellings were found.
When you press your belly with your hand, you can even feel the softness of your skin.
She put the corpse's clothes back on: "Okay."
Yuze turned around and asked: "How is it?"
Josh shook his head: "I didn't find anything."
"Aunt, this is the room. There was a banging sound just now." A woman's voice was heard from outside, and noisy footsteps were approaching this side.
The two men looked at each other, then quickly took the body and climbed out the window to leave from the other side.
But the thatched house was built independently and there was no shelter around it.
The backs of the two were soon exposed to other passers-by.
"Aunt! There's someone there!"
Someone is chasing after me.
Yu Ze frowned slightly, carried the corpse on his left shoulder, reached out with his right hand, lifted Qiao Xi onto his shoulder, and sped up instantly.
Qiao Xi felt that his feet were empty and only a shadow of the whole person remained.
"???"
The two men quickly distanced themselves from the people chasing them and returned to the ancestral hall.
Josh used spider silk to restore the door lock to its original state.
Yuze threw the body to the ground: "What about her?"
Josh frowned slightly: "How about hiding behind the statue?"
Yu Ze glanced at the statue, his eyes instantly alert: "Something is wrong."
“What…” Josh followed his gaze, and his voice stopped abruptly when he saw the statue.
The posture of the statue has changed!
He should have half-closed his eyes, with a serene and peaceful expression, and in his right hand was holding a trident that symbolized the power of the god of the sea.
But now, the statue's eyes were fully open, the expression on its face was definitely not friendly, and the standing trident was tilted downward at a slight angle.
It looks vaguely like it is about to make an attacking gesture.
Josh frowned: “What’s going on?”
Yuze turned to look at her: "You said you wanted to be his believer, and you made him angry."
Josh: “…Why don’t you just say that you touched his fish tail and he was disgusted.”
"Impossible." Yuzawa said righteously: "It is his honor to be touched by me. He is so happy that he can't wait to see it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the cold atmosphere in the ancestral hall became thicker.
Yuze: “…”
Qiao Xi's mouth twitched slightly: "...Now you know how annoying you are, right?"
Yu Ze: "He is narrow-minded and can't take a joke."
Josh looked up at the statue and examined it carefully: "Not only has the posture changed, but even the details have become much more refined."
She pointed at the statue's fingers and said, "Look here. This is a stone statue. Originally, the fingers were not so detailed. Before, there were only four blurry fingers. Now they are much more detailed, even the nails are carved out."
She walked around to the back of the statue and patted its buttocks. "And here, we were hiding behind it yesterday. At that time, there were no fish scales on its buttocks, but now they are vaguely visible."
Yu Ze raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you have a feeling that this statue..."
Josh met his gaze: "Looks like he's coming back to life."
Yu Ze nodded.
[Congratulations to players Qiao Xi and Yu Ze for triggering the side quest, "Awakening the Sleeping Sea God"]
Yu Ze glanced at her and said, "Side quest?"
Josh nodded, “I got it too.”
She recalled what happened last night: "Didn't they say that only a saint chosen by the Sea God can awaken him?"
Yuze looked the statue up and down and said, "Maybe he remembered to eat something."
Josh: “…”
She pondered for a moment: "I understand!"
Yu Ze glanced at her.
