Although this inn is in a remote location, there are many regular guests coming and going because of its quiet location.
That day, when the waiter was cleaning, he bumped into several regular customers. After temporarily settling the guests, he turned and went upstairs to tidy up the rooms for them.
Although there are many regular customers, perhaps because the environment here is remote and simple, it is rare to see people from high-minded sects come to stay.
Since he received several people from the Jade Pot Sect a few days ago, the waiter in this shop has been walking on thin ice. For fear of accidentally neglecting a few people, he will go to bring tea and water from time to time. Whenever he is free, he will go over to clean their house. Almost all the tables and chairs inside had their skin rubbed off.
This morning he saw two houses with the doors closed, but he didn't dare to disturb them. It wasn't until there was no response after calling them that he dared to push the door open and enter, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
He lowered his body and looked at the black and gray wreckage on the ground, a look of tears suddenly appearing on his face.
"No wonder I always felt that there was some noise last night, and I saw that the woodshed was opened in the morning! This...it must be that some immortals disliked the food in the shop and were too embarrassed to say more, so they roasted some burnt bones at night. I'm full..." The waiter pursed his lips, cleaned up the things on the floor, and then continued to clean up in despair.
After vacating the guest room, the waiter took the opportunity to help settle the few guests waiting downstairs. Perhaps because he was sweating profusely from the busy work just now, the depression in his heart actually dissipated a little.
"Huh? Why didn't you see the big tree today?" During this period, there was often a naughty boy running up and down. He also knew the name of the child, but it was already three o'clock in the morning, but he still didn't see the big tree. shadow.
Could it be that there was something wrong with yesterday's meal that caused the mother and son to leave without saying goodbye? The waiter held his chin and thought for a moment, then called softly as he went upstairs: "Dashu, Dashu, come out to play! Brother bought you candied haws."
Seeing that there was no response after calling several times, the waiter knocked on the door: "Sister-in-law, are you up? Sister-in-law? Are you still there?"
But before he called a few times, he smelled a smell of blood. He tremblingly opened the door, and then a scream broke through the sky...
"Kill...kill someone! Help!"
…
"How is the matter I asked you to investigate? Come and tell me!" Under the tree, a figure spread out, panting heavily, asked in a low voice.
"Captain Huskull, the Witch King has no intention of spreading the news about the murder of the Witch Queen. He has just been investigating secretly."
"Investigating secretly? Then do you know what the result was from the Witch King?" The panting man under the tree was Lu Tong. He was very surprised when he heard this and asked doubtfully.
Although Lu Tong wanted to kill the two of them that day, he was very unsure about when the contract constraints would take effect, and he was worried that his identity would be forced to be revealed. Especially now that the blood in the house is becoming more and more intense. Even if his arms are not noticed, I am afraid that the bloody atmosphere will attract outsiders, making Lu Tong's heart beat wildly.
Just when he was hesitating whether to take a gamble, and jumped down from the railing on the second floor while no one was watching, he heard a sound coming from the door of the Yuhu Sect disciple, and saw the Yuhu Sect disciple and Lu Chun went downstairs and left here one after another.
Just as he was leaving the house and preparing to go downstairs, he suddenly saw the two disciples hurried back and hid behind the pillar in the corner. Fortunately, the two disciples only went in for a moment, then left with the packages on their backs, without noticing him. He waited for a long time to make sure that the Jade Pot Sect members would not come back again, and then he also escaped into the night.
After leaving Yangdu City, he followed the directions on the black jade sign and hurriedly hurried for several days before he came to Wutu Cave and found the two feet who were inquiring about the news here!
"Report to Captain Skull, because there are really no clues about where the Witch Queen was killed, so the Witch King has shelved the matter."
"Put it aside? What do you mean? The Witch King doesn't care?" Lu Tong was slightly stunned.
"I don't mean this, it's just because the Witch King recently found a way to wake up the Witch Queen, and he can't get away for the time being, so he has no choice but to do this."
"What? The Witch King...has he found a way?" Lu Tong was shocked when he heard this. The reason why he escaped from the man was just because he made suggestions for the man. Unexpectedly, he was timid and missed the opportunity. , I was also very upset in my heart.
"That's right! A few days ago, the Witch King came to visit You Qingjun, the master of the Bixia Valley." One of the two feet replied respectfully.
"Ah! This...what should we do..." Lu Tong has naturally heard of the name of Bixia Valley, especially the owner of the valley, You Qingjun, who can raise human flesh and bones from the dead! Hearing this, he immediately panicked. If You Qingjun was allowed to save the Witch Queen first, he would have no right to speak and would no longer be able to use his strategies. How would he be able to save his life on the male Jin's side? ?
"Then do you know...do you know how sure the owner of the Bixia Valley is?" Lu Tong said with a panicked expression.
The two feet shook their heads and said: "The Witch King has not returned yet, so we have no way of knowing."
"What do you mean...the Witch King is not here?" Lu Tong's eyes rolled up when he heard this, and he kept thinking about what countermeasures he could use to make up for it. "Then have you found out where the Witch Queen is being held?"
"The location of the Witch Queen is very hidden, and it is really inconvenient for us to get close... Although the Witch King is not here, according to how much he attaches importance to the Witch Queen, the surrounding area will be strictly guarded. I hope the captain can consider it carefully!" one of the two feet said solemnly.
Lu Tong frowned, nodded and said, "Hi! I was just asking around, not to mention that the Witch Queen is my only support now, and I don't dare to attack her..."
Although Lu Tong said this, he was very uneasy in his heart. The master of the Eight-leaf Valley of the Bixia Valley, You Qingjun, has extraordinary rejuvenation skills, especially the Green Snake Staff in her hand, which is even more extraordinary. He has heard this saying about You Qingjun: She wants people to live, but no one can kill them; she wants people to die, but no one can save them.
It would be of no use to blame himself now. Lu Chun thought about it carefully. The Witch Queen's matter was not a small matter. You Qingjun must be well prepared when he comes. As long as he can help You Qingjun after the Witch King returns. If you figure out a way before arriving, there might be room for change.
At the moment, he urgently needs his own feet to find out information for himself, but he is struggling to do so without help. Although the "Hundred Sons of the Witch" were given full authority by the male elder, this was, after all, a matter between the Witch King and the male elder. The Witch King is not here at the moment, so he dare not use it easily without permission. If he offends the Witch King, he may sacrifice his life before he can make any suggestions.
"You two, do you know where Lord Nan Jin is now? Can you help me summon new 'arms'?" Thinking of this, Lu Tong also took out the black jade token and looked at the two feet.
Ever since he saw Lu Tong coming back alone, Shuangzhi had vaguely guessed something. Until then, he saw that the black jade card in Lu Tong's hand had only two light spots left, and his face was a little ugly: "Come back to the captain, this matter is male." Lord Jin has already explained it... As long as you do this, this, this, and this..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Tong followed the instructions of the two feet and used his kung fu technique to drive a ray of black energy into the black jade tablet. After a moment, he saw two rays of light lighting up at the corner of the jade tablet, rushing towards him.
Lu Tong was a little dazzled by the light on the jade plaque. In addition, he was tired from running around for several days, so he lost his patience: "At their speed, I'm afraid they won't be able to get there in a while... It's useless to just wait here." There is no other way. Let’s go back to Wutu Cave to rest!” Then the group of three people strode towards Wutu Cave…
…
When he first came to Wu Tu Cave, he was oppressed a lot. Although unclogging relationships made his situation much better, it also made his pockets emptier day by day. Even taking a deep breath would make his body hurt.
Now that I have been protected by a man, my status has naturally improved. I thought that from today on, I no longer have to be afraid of anyone except the Witch King!
"Stop! This is the Wutu Cave! No one can get close!" Just as Lu Tong was smiling, his thoughts were interrupted by a burst of inappropriate words.
"Huh?" Lu Tong frowned when someone stopped him. He turned the black jade token over and over in his hand and gestured: "You are so blind that you don't even know who I am?"
The two gatekeepers were stunned for a moment by Lu Tong's roar, and then they burst into laughter: "Yo! Who did I think it was? It turns out to be Lu Tong! Come in quickly!"
As the saying goes, you should never hit someone with a smiling face. Since these two people suddenly became enthusiastic, Lu Tong snorted coldly: "Next time, remember better, and then walked in with a big show."
The two disciples at the door didn't pay attention. They just looked at Lu Tong's back with a playful look on their faces and whispered something.
"Why are these two feet taking so long to pick up something? I just said it's completely unnecessary, but they still don't believe it, blah!" Lu Tong looked around, but there was no trace of the two feet, and he was also disdainful. scoffed.
In order to make it easier for his feet to move around in the Witch Tu Cave, the man asked the Witch King to customize the position of "communication envoy". And this messenger only obeys the instructions of the Witch King and the male elder, and is responsible for exchanging news with him, so his status is naturally very high. Because the feet often change faces, in order to avoid the trouble of explanation, the Witch King made two messenger tokens for this messenger. Seeing orders is like seeing people, which really saves a lot of problems.
Because the two feet were already familiar with each other last time, this messenger token was placed in their resting place. Later, they died suddenly, and the two "Communication Tokens" were left in the Wutu Cave without having time to hand them over to the two of them.
Just now when they were approaching the gate of Wutu Cave, the duo suddenly remembered that they did not carry the "Communication Token". Worried about causing trouble for Lu Tong, they asked him to wait for a while while they waited for them to sneak into Wutu Cave. The token was retrieved from the cave, but Lu Tong didn't care at all.
Lu Tong used to have a low status, so he naturally didn't know what the two were talking about, but he thought that he also had a black jade token. Isn't it more intimidating than this "communication envoy token"? Sure enough, under his temptation, the two gatekeeper disciples got out of the way without any obstruction.
Lu Tong was too lazy to waste time with the two feet, so he yawned and walked towards his original residence...
