I don't know if it was because he was afraid of the two people leaving, but King Hei Peng did not light the candle. He just sat on the chair side by side with Hei Xiaohua, and the Black Feather Blade kept rubbing it in his hand.
Although the visitors only said that they were messengers and did not reveal even the slightest bit of their identity, King Black Peng also had some guesses in his mind.
Because he had some doubts about those men just now, he didn't say anything more and only left Hei Xiaohua behind. Although this guy often has a bad mouth, he ranks among the top people he trusts most.
After everyone left, King Hei Peng asked Hei Xiaohua what he had discovered just now. Hei Xiaohua's voice sank when he heard this, and said mysteriously: "The main reason why this corpse is dead is because he...has no head!"
The Black Peng King was startled when he heard this, and the hand holding the Black Feather Blade stopped. He snorted coldly, kicked his foot, and kicked the stool under Hei Xiaohua's feet away.
Hei Xiaohua's body was empty and she sat firmly on the ground.
"King Hei Peng! Why can't you take a joke?" Hei Xiaohua grinned, covered his butt, jumped up and complained in a low voice. He just felt that the person next to him was extremely stiff, so he spoke to soften his words. Unexpectedly, This Black Peng King will do this damaging move.
"I'm not in the mood to joke with you. If you keep talking nonsense, get out of here!" King Black Peng said coldly.
"Look at you... you're acting like a boring gourd every day! It's really..." Hei Xiaohua continued to mutter, but saw a black light flash on the hand of Black Peng King, and he hurriedly pretended to be serious and said: "Actually, what I just said is indeed somewhat It’s one-sided, but King Black Peng, you can definitely listen to my explanation...I wonder, King Black Peng, have you noticed something wrong with this corpse?”
"If you fart, hurry up!" King Black Peng naturally had no intention of guessing.
"Okay..." Hei Xiaohua heard this scolding, although it was harsh, but it was much gentler than before. She breathed a sigh of relief and said: "According to common sense, if a living person is cut off, the blood will inevitably surge. ! But apart from the pool of blood at the feet, it is completely clean from a distance away, which really goes against common sense!"
"By the way... Lord Black Peng King, can I ask if you have offended anyone in Jianxing Ju recently?" Hei Xiaohua's face suddenly turned ugly when he was halfway through speaking.
"I have no interaction with them, what do you mean?" King Black Peng asked in confusion.
"King Hei Peng, look here..." Hei Xiaohua rubbed her butt, and then pointed to the wall next to her. There were many scars on the wall.
"If I were to rely on these sword marks alone, I wouldn't ask this question. It's just that the sword energy remaining in these sword marks is very cold. Even after such a long time, it still makes people feel cold... I still feel the same as before. Time has seen the same aura on a woman with a stern face in Jianxingju." Hei Xiaohua said.
The Black Peng King stood up and touched the groove, and then said lightly: "Although this kind of mark is similar to the cold one, it is not the residue of sword energy, and it should have nothing to do with Jian Xingju."
"Oh... Then I'm relieved!" Hei Xiaohua breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then continued: "I'm just wondering how could Jian Xingju do such a thing..."
"Oh, that rat in Sword Star Residence only cared about protecting himself when the monsters were raging. What's the difference between killing people?" King Hei Peng also sneered when he heard Hei Xiaohua's words.
"Ah? King Black Peng, I don't mean to say good things for Jian Xingju!" Seeing that King Black Peng had a misunderstanding, Hei Xiaohua quickly explained: "When I first saw you...oh, this person's neck was covered There was a thin layer of ice, so I took it for granted that the blood had condensed due to the cold! But because I had just come back from boiling water and my body was still warm, the thin layer of ice melted not long after! Originally, I was worried that blood would be stained on my body... But this person There is no blood seeping out from the broken neck!"
The Black Peng King didn't notice this kind of thing at all, and he also started to think deeply after hearing this.
"Actually, I didn't notice this at first, until I realized that the weight of the body in my arms was wrong..." Hei Xiaohua stretched out his hand and gestured, "Although this man is not strong, he is not thin, even if he is thin. A head shouldn't be so light... I looked up and down and found out what's wrong with this man! He... all the blood in his body was almost drained!"
Hearing this, King Black Peng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"That's true. I thought the person from Jian Xingju had learned some evil magic. Since King Hei Peng said it wasn't the case, I'm relieved." Hei Xiaohua let out a long breath, "So I think this person He had already lost his life before he lost his head... The reason why he was beheaded was probably just a cover-up."
Hearing this, the Black Peng King couldn't help but think to himself, it's a good thing he didn't open the door to check, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous. Sure enough, the people who came were not just sending a message, it seemed that they were trying to test something.
Hei Xiaohua was very satisfied with her performance tonight, especially her last inference, which was a perfect score. She was just waiting for the Black Peng King to praise her for her wit.
"Little flower..."
"King Black Roc?" Hei Xiaohua was looking forward to what she had in mind.
"I remember that I had asked you to stay in the Black Peng tribe before. When did you meet the people from Jianxing Ju?" King Black Peng said.
"Ouch..." A layer of cold sweat broke out on Hei Xiaohua's forehead, and she secretly said something bad.
When he was blackmailed out of all his money in Jinli Village, he had no choice but to return to the Black Peng Clan. Soon after, the Black Peng King came to lead people to deal with the Demon Locking Tower. Fortunately, the Black Peng King had no intention of paying attention to him at that time and asked him to guard the Black Peng clan well and not leave without orders.
Because the monsters were causing trouble at that time, Hei Xiaohua didn't want to cause trouble to herself, so she was able to live a peaceful life for a while. But ever since the monster incident passed, my heart has become turbulent, and I often sneak out.
"That's... right! I remembered it! Of course, when King Hei Peng called me back some time ago, I saw it by chance on the road!" Although Hei Xiaohua is strong and fierce, she is a little smaller than him. In front of the black roc king in the circle, he was as docile as a little sheep.
"Huh? Is there such a coincidence?" King Hei Peng heard Hei Xiaohua's cautious opening, and the corner of his mouth hidden in the shadows couldn't help but evoke a smile.
======Years ago======
In the dungeon of the Jinpeng tribe, a thin figure was curled up, muttering and repeating one sentence...
"Brother Jin Yin...will definitely come to save me..."
If the Jin Yin in this person's mouth is here, he will definitely recognize this person. He is Hei Yi...
Although Heiyi was still very young at this time, his condition was particularly bad. He had not had anything that could be called a meal for an unknown amount of time...
This dungeon was dark and damp. One of the walls was covered with moss, and there were crooked dark red scratches on the moss near the base of the wall.
There was a two-finger-wide crack under the wall. From time to time, gurgling noises came out. The noises got closer and closer, and finally they became denser, forming the sound of rushing water. Exploring the space.
"Water...water is coming..."
Hearing the sound of water, the thin figure suddenly trembled a few times, moved over weakly, and dug into his mouth with his muddy nails. Then he quickly scratched some moss from the wall and stuffed it into his mouth, holding back the pain in his stomach. He swallowed it with the surge of blood, and kept retching.
Although the moss was easy to swallow, there was a piece of sand in the extremely filthy groundwater, which made his teeth rattle and made his stomach feel burning.
"Brother Jin Yin...why haven't you come back..." Although Hei Yi wanted to cry, his tears in the past few years had already dried up in a few days, and he didn't want to lose the underground "sweet spring" he finally drank. .
"Gululu..." This time the underground water came and went as fast as it came, and disappeared before the black soil could calm down.
"Water! Come back! Ahhh!" He finally waited until the water appeared again. Unexpectedly, before he could take a few sips this time, the water flow receded and he screamed unwillingly.
"Hey? Did you hear anything?" A guard at the door of the dungeon asked.
"Oh... it must be the kid below! I didn't expect that after so many days, there are still spiritual calls." Another guard sighed.
"Why don't we go down and take a look... After all, Hei Gai is on good terms with Mr. Jin Yin. If something really happens, we're afraid..."
"But if you go down, aren't you afraid of offending Mr. Jin Guijin?"
"Then... what should we do? You said that the third young master and the eldest young master will not deal with each other, so why do you want to spread the flames on outsiders?"
"Ahem, stop gossiping! Be careful, the walls have ears..." The guard sighed and whispered: "I heard from the shift guard... It seems that the Third Young Master was too heavy-handed and thought he had beaten this kid to death, so he was thrown here! Although this kid is alive now, the Third Young Master is very concerned about face and will definitely not let this kid come out alive!"
"Sigh... I originally thought that guarding this unused dungeon was a good job, so I came here. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing... Forget it! I won't come after this shift!"
"Who says it's not? That's exactly what I meant! But then again, you said there's nothing in this dungeon, so why does the Jinpeng clan still send people to guard it?"
"Isn't it because there is a treasure inside?"
"real?"
"Of course... I lied to you! How did I know?" The guard felt uncomfortable ever since he heard Heibo's roar, but he had no choice but to make a joke to lighten the atmosphere.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a rustling sound coming from the distance. He hurriedly braced himself and looked there, and said sternly: "The dungeon is a heavy place, and no one can get close to it!"
"It's me! It's me!" After hearing this, a little kid ran out with a few steps and showed his face, then turned back and was caressing something.
"Little handyman? Why are you here? Go back quickly! This is not a place to play." The guard looked curious when he saw the person coming clearly. This little guy is a handyman of the Black Peng clan among the Jin Peng clan, because Since he was young, no one usually ordered him around, but this time he came here for some unknown reason.
"I'm not here to play, I'm here to help!" The little boy's voice was firm. As he appeared again, a large box appeared behind him.
"This is... food? Who asked you to come?" The guard opened the box and saw large and small lotus leaf parcels inside, and raised his eyebrows.
"It was Jin San's subordinate who asked me to come..." The little guy thought for a while, "He said he would change his shift later. It can't be said that he was just for drinking... and then he forgot about it."
This Jin San is none other than Mr. Jin Gui Jin San. Although what the little guy said was unclear, the guard also understood what he meant and sighed helplessly: "Damn it! These two guys are lazy again! This shift changes After that, I won’t come no matter what!”
