"Is this the stranger who was killed before? His death was really tragic."
Kong Zhimao came in front of him and frowned as he looked at the goldsmith who was already as hard as a zombie, his whole body covered with purple blood stasis and corpse spots.
The appearance of ordinary people will become pale and terrifying after death. The goldsmith Liu Dun died because his heart was picked, and the blood flowed back to the sunken pit of the heart. The skin all over his body was as if powdered, without any blood color.
At this moment, his body was in an extremely unnatural rickety state, and his fists were clenched like claws. It was obvious that he had been severely injured before his death.
However, there are exceptions to this, that is, a large area of the neck and the chest and lungs on the front of the body are golden and green, as if made of fine iron, but most of them are covered by clothes, and can only be vaguely noticed from the collar.
This is not ordinary rigor mortis or bruises, but the erosion of strange power.
If an experienced stranger comes over, he will realize that the corpse of this stranger is already in a state of demonization, and the strange power contained in the body is about to rise, turn his corpse into a demon, and activate it again.
"Young Master, please don't underestimate this person. He used to be a very powerful master in Caomang Jianghu. He was originally the Great Protector of the Gu Mind Demon Sect, the goldsmith Liu Dun.
He was born with a small fortune, and had a good life since he was a child. However, he suffered a drastic change when he was ten years old, and all his family assets were taken away by more powerful nobles. From then on, he hated the court and was guided to join the family. Gu Xin Demon Cult, inherits the name of goldsmith. "
"Okay, I don't care about this person's past. Why are you telling me this? Just tell me what rare treasure he has."
"This... villain really doesn't know."
"What? You don't know?"
Kong Zhimao couldn't help but frown.
"Isn't this a trick on me? You have already collected a deposit of three hundred taels before, and then you told me that you didn't know when it happened?"
"Oh, my Mr. Kong, the one thousand taels was spent on stealing this corpse. After doing this, our brothers will have to disappear from this city and come back again in the future as a dead resident. Where? He still cares about so much.
Moreover, the affairs of strangers are not something we can explore. What abilities this goldsmith has and what kind of exotic treasures he controls, we have to ask Mr. Li. Do you think we can ask? "
Kong Zhimao hesitated.
Uncle Liu stopped him and said: "What they said makes sense. Don't talk about them. Even Li Fan, who has fought with the goldsmith, may not know it clearly. We can't call the goldsmith up and ask him again, so we can only make do with it. Give it a try.
This is actually the helpless part of becoming a stranger. It is difficult to know in advance what exotic treasures you can possess and what abilities you can master. "
"Right."
Kong Zhimao quickly figured it out, found loyal servants, settled the remaining balance in person, and sent those people out.
When only their uncle and nephew were left at the scene, Kong Zhimao and Sixth Uncle were speechless. After a while, they discussed: "Now that we have obtained his body, who comes first?"
"Becoming a stranger is not an easy thing, so let me do it first."
At the critical moment, Kong Zhimao showed the spirit of a young man and took the initiative to stand up.
In fact, there is some selfishness hidden in his heart, that is, if the strange power in the stranger's corpse is not enough, there will be no way to extract enough exotic treasures for the two of him to control.
Uncle Liu pondered for a moment, didn't say anything more, and just nodded.
Kong Zhimao took out a small object that looked like a snuff bottle from his body and gently placed it on the body of goldsmith Liu Dun.
After a while, a black smoke was seen coming out of it, like a spiritual monster.
This is not a real strange treasure, but a special weird thing, which is essentially the same as those weird sources with extremely high concentrations.
There is a saying among the strangers in Caomang Jianghu that birds of a feather flock together.
The use of some special weird items can draw out the weird power of the demon, thereby giving it a shape and making it easier to capture.
This is actually a special phenomenon of the fusion of the same source. Using this strange power to mark the invisible and strange power can make people see it with the naked eye, and then use the power of the spirit to capture it.
If this step can be achieved, the next thing will be similar to Li Chuan using his own clairvoyance to see this object.
If Li Fan had been at the scene, he would have been surprised to find that the method they used was very clever. In essence, they did not use the rare treasure that had been controlled by goldsmith Liu Dun, but used a nearly formed weird thing to manipulate him. The strange power in his body was drawn out and he tried to use it for himself.
This will have a certain chance to transform this snuff bottle into a real rare treasure and inherit the power controlled by Liu Dun.
It's as if Feiyu Sui has inherited the uncanny nature of the cloth demon.
This vaguely has the meaning of artificial manufacturing, and it also symbolizes that human beings use their own wisdom to master its principles and completely control it.
However, the Secret Files of the Suppressing Demon Division and the notes of predecessors have specifically mentioned this phenomenon, and bluntly stated that this is just a beautiful trap.
Because weirdness is a mysterious and unknown force, full of uncertainty.
The so-called patterns are just similar things that happen repeatedly in a specific period of time.
It's like a group of chickens being raised by someone and waiting to be fed every day. They have mastered the "law" that someone will come to feed them every morning, lunch and evening, which is extremely fulfilling.
However, when they grow up and mature, they may face disaster.
"Feeding" is a superficial law that is easy to understand, but the existence of "the day to be slaughtered" is a deep law that cannot be understood by the wisdom of chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, and can only be called weird.
At this moment, Kong Zhimao was able to break away from common sense and transcend his limitations as an ordinary human being. There was no doubt that he also had an extraordinary mind.
Any attempt that dares to break common sense and go against one's own common sense and instinct is the source of human progress.
Even if they are a catastrophe for individuals.
But he forgot that the depth of this world is far beyond what his shallow eyes can see through, nor what his crude wisdom can understand.
Although he had spent money to buy lessons before, carefully collected materials and information from all parties, and made seemingly complete preparations.
All these are in vain for the power of weirdness.
In the void that the two men could not see with their naked eyes, an invisible and strange force not only did not flow out from Liu Dun's body, but attracted the strange flow of the snuff bottle back, constantly eroding and dissolving, and counteracting the power of the seal.
The rusty arrow exited his body as if driven by invisible force.
Immediately afterwards, the ink threads binding the body broke, and the gray-black mist lingering around the hands and feet also melted.
Goldsmith Liu Dun suddenly opened his eyes.
