Chapter 106: elopement

In the end, Gu Mingke was dragged to the Town Demon Division by Li Chaoge.

During this period, Li Chaoge intended to jump the wall in order to cut corners, but Gu Mingke firmly refused. No way, Li Chaoge could only accompany Gu Mingke around for a long time, and then he returned to the place that was ten feet away in a straight line.

Li Chaoge opened the door of the warehouse and said to the person behind him: "It's here."

Li Chaoge walked into the house first, and Gu Mingke slowly followed. He? He glanced at an oval, dry, hard-shaped object that looked like a pie, calmed down, and asked, "This is a pie?"

Li Chaoge turned his head, saw him? Something beside him, nodded calmly: "Yes."

Gu Mingke didn't know how to express his thoughts at the moment. Li Chaoge is looking for evidence...Is it really digging three feet of the ground, and it doesn't leak.

Not even a piece of cake.

Li Chaoge might be aware of Gu Mingke's thoughts. She stood between the wooden frames and said with her arms around her arms: "Don't you? Misunderstanding, I am not aiming at bringing this cake back. I suspect that it was poisoned in this cake."

Gu Mingke touched a teapot next to it. What's more, there was still water in it. Gu Mingke nodded, raised his eyes, and looked at her calmly: "What about this teapot? In addition to food, do you also suspect that the water is poisonous?"

Li Chaoge replied confidently: "It's not impossible."

Gu Mingke had nothing to say. He glanced over the bits and pieces that Li Chaoge had moved back all the way, and finally said: "You guessed it? Wrong, these things are all dead and angry."

Li Chaoge's eyes widened, but Gu Mingke immediately said, "But it's not the source. The death on them? The anger is not even heavy on you."

Li Chaoge's mood went up and down, and finally she angered Gu Mingke. Didn't she stare at him angrily? One glance: "I have something to say once!"

Gu Mingke flicked his sleeves gently, thinking that this person is really unreasonable, and he couldn't solve the case, so he came to shout at him. Li Chaoge showed Gu Mingke the evidence she found suspicious, while narrating the situation in Turtle Village: "...The Fenzhou governor said that a soldier got up at night and saw the corpse suddenly sit up and walk around the village. Later? Come to our night. When I visited Turtleback Village, I did see the villagers walking around. I suspected that these people were poisoned and died one by one. Go, after their bodies were carried outside, I don’t know what triggered it. It’s midnight. Wake up, these people circled the village late at night, and returned to their own homes during the day. Therefore, during the daytime, people can't be seen outside, but the houses still keep their usual appearance, because these houses are originally. There are people living, but the inhabitants have become dead people. I suspect that their work and rest have also changed, becoming night activities and daytime sleep. In other words, the turtle village still exists, but it has become a ghost village. ."

Gu Mingke nodded slightly and asked, "Later? How did you deal with it?"

"Kill the villagers who turned into corpses, and then buried them in the soil. Some corpses changed so badly that their skins were inaccessible. Why can't ordinary swords help them? You must use real energy to kill them. But other ordinary corpses, Zhou Shao A few people can cooperate to kill." After that, Li Chaoge paused for a while, and said, "They are already dead, I don't know if that counts as a kill."

"Your treatment is correct." Gu Mingke said, "The most important thing about corpse refining is that the corpse is intact. Once the body is mutilated and life is leaked, the summoning technique will completely fail. After you destroy the corpse, those people will They can’t be used as corpse soldiers. Let them go into the soil to comfort the undead, and on the other hand, it can also prevent the spread of corpse poison and cause plague."

Li Chaoge keenly noticed a new word: "corpse soldier?"

"Yes." Gu Mingke's always Qingming eyes seemed to be filled with black mist. He stared at a place, seemingly nostalgic and repulsive, "Gu Mingke? He is the hometown, not going to the undead. Take the bell as an example. Yin, call the monarch to return. That is the ancient spirit-inducing technique."

Li Chaoge stared closely at Gu Mingke's profile, while Gu Mingke's eyes were faintly constricted, and he was probably distracted. This is the first time Li Chaoge has met Gu Mingke since he met Gu Mingke, revealing such a clear mood swing.

Li Chaoge looked at it for a while, and suddenly asked, "How do you know the ancient secret technique?"

Gu Mingke lowered his eyes and returned to normal in a flash: "If you read more books, you will know."

His expression was calm and unhurried, and his voice was as cold as jade, looking the same as usual. But Li Chaoge was sure that she hadn't read it wrong just now.

Li Chaoge nodded, thinking that this matter became more and more interesting. Li Chaoge asked, "Well, since you have read a lot of books, I would like to trouble Gu Shaoqing to clarify, what is the ancient spiritual attraction?"

Gu Mingke sighed slightly: "The ancient witchcraft is strong and there are many sects, and the spells that can draw the undead are collectively called spirits. If you look at it carefully, there are many genres. If you don't make it clear, how do I know which one it is?"

Li Chaoge was stumped. She looked around and felt that Gu Mingke's height was the most suitable. She gestured beside him, "Suppose you are those villagers..."

Li Chaoge raised his eyes, just looking into the eyes of Gu Mingke Jinghu. He? Looking at her intently, as if waiting? Her next words. Li Chaoge's mouth stuck, and he forgot what he said.

Facing such a face, Li Chaoge couldn't bear to use him as an example of those ugly monsters. Li Chaoge saw a table not far away, so he simply lit the lamp and drew him with a pen: "They are probably like this, their faces are blue and there are patterns on their necks..."

Gu Mingke slowly sat next to Li Chaoge and watched her draw the outline. Li Chaoge drew painstakingly for a while, and realized that he had already drawn all the details. He turned around and asked Gu Mingke, "Do you understand?"

Gu Mingke looked at the abstract and distorted little man on the paper, directly hitting the soul, paused, and said, "I didn't? Understand. But I understand what you want to say."

Li Chaoge looked down at the little people he painted. It's really not very beautiful, but it's not important. Just be vivid. Li Chaoge crumpled the piece of paper into a ball, put it on the wick and burned it, and asked, "What kind of secret technique is this kind of corpse?"

"To be precise, it's witchcraft." Gu Mingke picked up the pen, dipped the ink lightly around his sleeve, and drew a corpse in the same position. "This witchcraft originated in Qishan, and then it was introduced to Kui. King Xiang had been studying the Qishan Spirit-inducing technique before his death. At that time, the war was raging and the people were not living. He always felt that as long as he could turn people into his own use, he could have a loyal and brave team that would kill the enemy courageously and use it for nothing. Exhausted army of undead."

The light fluttered lightly, illuminating half of Gu Mingke's face. His features are exquisite and beautiful, but his outline is very strong, so that he is located at the junction of light and shadow, and his profile is surprisingly beautiful. Li Chaoge's voice lowered unconsciously, and asked, "Later? Come to him? Did you succeed?"

Gu Mingke almost blurted out: "Nothing." Afterwards, he paused, and wrote lightly: "As far as I know, there is nothing."

As for the back? Did they continue to study? Gu Mingke didn't know.

Li Chaoge raised his eyebrows secretly and stared at Gu Mingke's profile meaningfully, wanting to see some clues from it. Gu Mingke also let her watch, and his hands kept moving, very fast, and an iron corpse that was accurate and not losing sight of it appeared right now in his pen.

"Is that right?"

Li Chaoge lowered his head, only glanced at it, and then nodded: "It's it."

Gu Mingke folded the painting and put it on the oil lamp. The drawing quickly turned to ashes. Gu Mingke put the pen back in its original position and said, "Qishan Spirit Attraction requires not only the aid of witch medicine, but also the formation of soul gathering. Have you seen the formation in Turtle Village?"

Formation? Li Chaoge twisted her eyebrows, she thought about it, and shook her head heavily. Gu Mingke asked again: "You just said that they are going around a place. Where is it?"

Li Chaoge quickly drew a topographical map of Zhangguibei Village, and ticked a circle in the middle: "When I went there, I only saw them walking around this road. I suspect that the center is the ancestral hall."

"The ancestral hall." After Gu Mingke finished speaking, he suddenly looked back at Li Chaoge, his eyes sharpened, "have you entered the ancestral hall?"

Li Chaoge didn't know, so he should nodded his head and said: "Of course. Otherwise, I want to? How to investigate the case?"

"I'll just say why you have such a heavy anger on your body." Gu Mingke's expression quickly became serious. He grabbed Li Chaoge's hand, Li Chao singer still held the pen, and she called out in surprise, as if thinking. Want to withdraw, and finally give up. She let Gu Mingke squeeze her wrist with the penholder between her fingers, and even whirled: "What's the matter?"

"I originally thought it was you and the dead corpse, so I was infected with death and anger. Unexpectedly, you actually entered the formation." After speaking, Gu Mingke glanced at Li Chaoge and saw her. Concerned, his voice was filled with anger, "Do you know how dangerous this is, or not?"

Li Chaoge thought for a while and found that she was really not worried. Li Chaoge propped his chin, leaned on the table, and said, "Isn't there you. You are dead? Just get rid of it."

Gu Mingke was initially angry, but when he heard her words, he felt helpless and at a loss as if he had hit the cotton with a fist. She... nothing more.

Gu Mingke pinched her finger on her pulse for a while, then gently put it down. Li Chaoge moved his wrist and asked, "Did you solve it?"

"No."

Alright, Li Chaoge knows the solution. Li Chaoge stood up and whispered softly: "It seems that the mystery is in the ancestral hall. I have to go to Turtle Village again?"

Li Chaoge said this completely from his own words. Didn't he expect Gu Mingke to blow off the lights, and asked frankly, "When?"

Li Chaoge was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and looked at him in surprise. The lights went out, and the warehouse fell into the ambiguous darkness, like a layer of veil. Gu Mingke stood behind that layer of veil and said lightly: "With your current strength, you are not enough to fight the corpse soldiers and corpse generals. It will happen to the court tomorrow. On vacation, I'll let you go, right?"

After Gu Mingke finished speaking, he saw Li Chaoge's expression and asked, "Why, can't it?"

"It's not impossible." Li Chaoge knocked on his forehead, almost suspecting that he was dreaming, "I just can't believe it, you said these things."

Did Gu Mingke struggle with this topic. He looked at the sky and said, "You will wait a while, I will go to Dali Temple to check the remaining scrolls."

Li Chaoge nodded in a daze, and said, "Okay, by the way, I have to write a few letters. I don't know how long it will take for this trip. If I don't come back in time for the New Year, I have to leave a message for the Queen and the Saint."

Li Chaoge had expected that she and Gu Mingke would not go back to Turtle Village for a visit. At their speed, seven days back and forth was enough. However, just in case, Li Chaoge still left several letters to Bai Qianhe, the Queen of Heaven, and the Long History of Princess Mansion.

In the unlikely event that the annual leave ends in seven days, she hasn't come back yet, these people know where she is going anyway. In a letter to Bai Qianhe, Li Chaoge briefly described his own itinerary, and then he arranged for him the following tasks. If Li Chaoge does not show up after seven days, Bai Qianhe wants to continue patrolling the palace gate with people to maintain the town demon division. As for the Fenzhou case, wait until she comes back to talk about it.

When it comes to the "necessary? moment", act by chance.

However, most of these arrangements are not available. Li Chaoge unfolded another letter to give the queen? Explain why she was not in the New Year, and that the long history of the Anton Princess Mansion took care of the Princess Mansion. After that, she used a small spell and swiped the envelope slightly to make sure that only the people she designated could open the letter, then she took the sword and walked out the door.

Gu Mingke stood in the yard with his hands shouldered, and when he saw her, he nodded slightly: "Let's go."

Li Chaoge had just returned to Dongdu today, but she didn't even return to the Princess' Mansion. She left Dingdingmen while wiping during the curfew, and she didn't even go back to pack her luggage.

For Li Chaoge, the luggage does not need to be packed, just buy it now.

In the early morning of the next day, dawn broke and morning birds tweeted. Bai Qianhe stepped on the spot and came to the Town Demon Division, intending to show his face, and exchanged "Happy New Year" with his colleagues, and then went back and continued to sleep with him. However, the atmosphere of the Town Demon Division today is much more solemn, which is completely different from the pleasant atmosphere of the past few days. Bai Qianhe sighed secretly, who made Li Chaoge come back.

With this evil star sitting in town, even if they are back home, they dare not be too obvious.

Bai Qianhe entered the east hall, sat in his own position and read a book pretendingly. After a while, he couldn't bear it, and quietly asked Ma Linlang, "Have she been here?"

Ma Linlang sullen her face and shook her head cautiously: "Not yet?."

The people in the east hall are a little anxious, the boss hasn't come to patrol yet, they don't dare to slip away. In the end, everyone unanimously selected Bai Qianhe, who "has the best relationship with the commander," and went to the main hall to investigate the situation.

Bai Qianhe took a deep breath and knocked on the door with a hippie smile. After a while, the smile on his face receded, and Bai Qianhe listened again and pushed the door open hard.

The door of the hall slowly opened to both sides, and the sun slowly shone into the hall. Seeing Bai Qianhe standing still at the door, Mo Linlang couldn't help but his expression became serious: "What's the matter?"

"Inside? No one." As he said, Bai Qianhe stepped into the main hall. He noticed that there were several letters on Li Chaoge's desktop, with the name "Bai Qianhe" written on the top.

Bai Qianhe opened the letter. After reading it, he didn't move it for a long time. Ma Linlang followed behind her, seeing his performance, her fingers became tighter and tighter: "What's the matter?"

"Something has happened." Bai Qianhe looked at Mo Linlang with a heavy expression, with a sad tone, "The princess eloped with Gu Shaoqing."

·

In the second visit to Turtle Village, this time only Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke, they arrived at the destination in just one day.

At this moment, the setting sun was like blood, and red clouds piled up in the sky, like overturned colorful dyes. Didn't Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke disturb anyone and entered the village quietly.

The tired bird returns to the nest and the sunset pave the way. Obviously it is the busiest time of the day, but Turtle Village is quiet and quiet, as if entering the world of apocalypse. The villagers have been buried, but there are still spots of brown spots on the roadside, which are the blood left over from the fight between the town demon division and the villagers. The sound of crows circling can be heard from afar, and the quiet village is set off by the crows, making it more and more creepy.

However, did Li Chaoge walk in it? She was not at all scared. She walked to Orion’s yard familiarly, even? Remember to remind Gu Mingke: "Pay attention to this corner, here are two dead? Two corpses are bleeding all over the floor. , Xiao Xin rubbed her clothes."

Gu Mingke nodded and thanked: "Thank you very much."

Li Chaoge opened the door and entered the yard, familiar with him like his own home. She pointed to the emptiness, but according to the bloodstain, she could still see a human-shaped ground, and said, "The Orion is down here. I have checked the bodies of everyone in Turtle Village, and it is his level of corpse transformation. The lightest."

Gu Mingke looked at the **** ground and walked into the house. Li Chaoge followed behind. She stood in this room again, almost closing her eyes to point out where everything is: "This is the Orion's house, and the cake is taken from here. He? Shouldn't it? I have a wife and live alone. The stove is seldom used, but there are animal skins in the courtyard next to the east. I suspect that he has a good relationship with the family in the east, and sometimes the other party will give him food, he? I will use the hides returned as a gift."

Gu Mingke swept his eyes and asked, "What's the situation of the corpse next door?"

"Normal level." Li Chaoge replied, "Zhou Shao alone is enough to solve it."

Gu Mingke nodded, and said, "Go? Take a look next door."

"Okay." Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke went out, but they turned and walked in different directions. Li Chaoge was speechless when he saw Gu Mingke's actions: "No one, you are not troublesome."

"Crossing the wall is not a gentleman's way." Gu Mingke was also very persistent, "Go to the front door."

Li Chaoge snorted, turned over and jumped on the wall, "I want to leave you, anyway, I'm faster than you."

Li Chaoge jumped over the wall and fell to the ground gently. She looked up and found that Gu Mingke had already stood in the courtyard. Li Chaoge snorted, looked at him, and said seriously: "You are so boring."

Gu Mingke didn't say a word. He pushed the door and walked into the house. Li Chaoge quickly followed, and explained in the back: "They are a family of four, a couple, one son and one daughter."

Gu Mingke responded softly. He looked around. There were red paper-cuts on the windows. Each shape was different. There were various handicrafts scattered all over the house. He could see that the hostess was very interested in life and was very popular.

Li Chaoge looked at it and said, "I checked the household registration records of Fenzhou. The family's surname is Liu, the mother is 40 years old, and the daughter has just met this year. There is a son who is about to marry a wife... What are you doing?"

Li Chaoge watched as Gu Mingke opened an old dressing table, dialed it, and pulled out a piece of paper from under the pile of velvet flowers. There seemed to be ink stains on the piece of paper. Li Chaoge glanced at Gu Mingke in amazement, walked up to him, and looked down.

On the top is a picture of a man with a crown of anger, cross-brows, three eyes and eight arms. He holds a weapon in each of his eight arms, standing angrily among the clouds, looking like a fierce fight.

Li Chaoge gave a soft tut and couldn't help but said, "Who is this, looks so ugly?"

Li Chaoge felt that Gu Mingke glanced at her, and there seemed to be something unusual in his eyes. Still? Not waiting? Li Chaoge pondered his aftertaste, and Gu Mingke pointed to a line next to him, and said lightly: "The Lingwu King of Protecting the Country will appear to be the emperor."

Li Chaoge was surprised: "So long? What is his name?"

"In ancient times, there was a temple god. I don't know when his full name became so long, but the folks call him? The **** of war." Gu Mingke explained, "The **** of war has been? It's been some years, and now it's already broken. Very few people know it. , It’s not like that a girl of this age can reach. Go to "other" places to find, there should be other things to discover."

Gu Mingke said that he wanted it? Put the paper away, Li Chaoge saw it, and raised his eyebrows, and finally felt that the wrong thing came from? Where is it: "Why are you so? Reluctant to let me see this painting?"

Gu Mingke turned around, with long sleeves and eyes like ink, looking at her calmly and calmly: "No? Yes."

Li Chaoge stretched out his hand at Gu Mingke, like a smile? Not a smile? Asked: "Then why are you so anxious to put the portrait away? Anyway, let's move together next, why don't we leave it to me for safekeeping?"

Looking into Li Chaoge's eyes, Gu Mingke gently took out the portrait of the Warrior God from his sleeve, and handed it to Li Chaoge: "Whatever."

Li Chaoge took the painting and kept his eyes on Gu Mingke. Gu Mingke did not fluctuate, and let her watch with a clear conscience. Li Chaoge snorted in his heart, looked down at the painting, and was caught off guard by the strange figure.

Li Chaoge couldn't bear to cover the portrait and turned it over. Look at the small characters below: "It's so ugly, it makes people's eyes hurt."

Gu Mingke didn't hear it, and as soon as he turned around, he left the house. Li Chaoge followed behind, looking down at the small characters on the portrait as he walked: "Guardian Lingwu King will manifest the emperor, expel demons, protect the country, everything..."

Gu Mingke has already pushed open the door of another house and walked inwardly. Li Chaoge blindly followed behind Gu Mingke, not even looking at the road: "Emperor Lingwu is the son of King Kui. When he was born, he was born with lightning and thunder, and the real dragon hovered. He went there in three days. The priest divination, saying good luck, is the lord of destiny. The prince is young and smart, able to write at the age of three, be able to write at the age of seven, supervise the country at the age of ten, and be in charge of the princes at the age of ten. The immortal inspires and soars... hey."

Li Chaoge was so heartbroken that he hit some hard object and almost stepped on the stairs. She raised her head and saw Gu Mingke holding her arm helplessly, looking down at her and saying, "Look at the road."

Li Chaoge didn't realize that this kind of behavior of herself was dangerous. She shook the portrait in her hand at Gu Mingke and asked, "Did you feel familiar?"

"Um?"

"It's Kuiguo again." Li Chaoge murmured, "At the time of the Tibetan Sword Villa, Sheng Lanchu said that Qianyuanjian was the funeral of the emperor Kuiguo. Now it is him? Since he is the emperor, why is he the **** of war? ?"

"No conflict." Gu Mingke crossed the entry barrier and slowly flipped through the house. It was not like searching for a house, but more like a walk. "In that era, king power and divine power were united, and the monarch and the priest were on the same level. All countries Major events depend on witchcraft for divination. It is normal for a certain Kuiguo leader to have outstanding achievements and be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people."

Li Chaoge wrote down silently. The writings of the ancient times are different from those of the present, and there are very few classics that have been handed down to the world, so Li Chaoge has very little knowledge of the ancients. Li Chaoge flipped back and forth and found that this portrait recorded the appearance and deeds of the Valkyrie, but he did not record his name.

"Strange?" Li Chaoge couldn't help frowning, "Why? No? Is his name written on it?"

The last ray of afterglow fell to the horizon in the west, and the room quickly fell silent. There was no sound in the room for a long time, and Li Chaoge thought that Gu Mingke hadn't heard it. Didn't she take it to heart, she turned around to search in the yard. After she left? Long, a voice rang softly: "I can't write."

He has a very low voice, but he is very determined.

When Li Chaoge saw this portrait, he felt a strange sense of familiarity. She pulled in the ashes, and sure enough, she turned it out? A piece of burnt oil paper.

Most of the paper was burned, leaving only a small piece, but it can also be seen that this piece of paper is the same as the material in the portrait of the singer Li Chao, and there are still faint ink marks on it. Gu Mingke walked out of the room and saw that she actually picked out clues from the ashes, and he was very impressed for a while.

"How do you know it's here?"

"The back of the portrait? It's oiled paper. I thought this material was very familiar. Sure enough, I saw it." Li Chaoge stood up and said, "It was strange when I came before. With the financial resources of the farmers, it can be used. Do you use greased paper to ignite? Sure enough, there is a problem with these papers."

Li Chaoge shook the portrait in his hand at Gu Mingke and asked, "So, this is the real source?"

"You can say that." Gu Mingke walked down the steps and said, "The formations, patterns, etc. drawn on paper will probably only take effect after burning. Some people send out portraits to the villagers. Come back and burn the fire. After the talisman was burned, the dead breath sealed in it spread to the food, drinking water and even the people who cooked. Soon, the whole village fell."

Li Chaoge nodded his head: "No wonder that Orion's corpse has the least amount of change, because he doesn't make a fire or cook. These deathly sealed portraits are useless to him. But his neighbors are warm and hospitable. That scar should have been bitten by him when he went to visit the neighbor’s house."

The destruction of the village in Turtle Village started from the beginning, probably because someone came to the village to post pictures. The free things plus the pictures, quickly spread throughout the village. The women in the village used oil paper to set a fire when they were cooking, and as the tongue of fire swallowed the portrait, the poisonous mist quietly spread and penetrated into the turtle-backed villagers. The villagers were so sick that they became corpses in the end. Others thought that the patient was dead, so they carried it to the open space and placed it. Later, the villagers cheated the corpse and slowly turned into a walking monster.

This is the poison of refining the corpse, where is the soul gathering formation that induces the corpse to act and even generate thoughts?

Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke looked at each other and said at the same time, "Go to the ancestral hall."
