MTL - Card Room-Chapter 504
Chapter 504
The book Qi Ran was reading made Shao Qingge very puzzled. He didn't know any of the characters above, like a strange spell. The little boy held the book very seriously and Shao Qingge hid In the shadow, did not go out to disturb him.
After a while, the boy seemed to hear something, quickly buried the book under the tree, and whispered, "Who is this?"
Shao Qingge thought he had found himself and was thinking of leaving, but saw Zhou Xiaoyun sneaking out of the cave sneakily, whispering, "Brother, it's me..."
Qi Ran seemed to be relieved, and his tone was obviously relieved. "What are you doing out?"
Zhou Xiaoyun looked pale and shivered, "I have nightmares and dreamed that I was caught by them, thrown into the pot and cooked..."
Qi Ran frowned and walked in front of her, patting the **** the shoulder gently, saying, "It's just a nightmare, don't be afraid. With me and Uncle Ren, we will protect you."
The girl nodded and went back to the cave with him.
After they left, Shao Qingge walked under the tree and dug out the book that Qi Ran buried in and carefully read it again. Although those spell-like ghost characters, Shao Qingge, could not understand it, but some human sketches, Can still speculate the meaning.
There are several pages depicting pictures that resemble "puppets".
Ye Qi asked "How is it? What is this book about?"
Shao Qingge said, "It should be related to the evil spells that confuse people. This is the same, I don't know where to get the book? Could it be that his parental status is special, and it was passed to him before he died?"
Ye Qidao said, "It is possible that Qi Ran should be a foreigner, not a local child in Qingfeng Town. I remember that Qingfeng Town had no family name of Qi at all. Perhaps, his parents happened to die here, making him an orphan, Saved by mother-in-law."
Shao Qingge wrote down the pages of the puppet portrayed in the book, then put the book back intact, covered it with mud, and stood up and said, "Is there anything on your side?"
Ye Qigang wanted to say "no". As a result, the broken temple where Aunt Qing was suddenly broke into a few strong men.
Those people had long knives in their hands and blood was on the knives. Obviously, it was not easy to mess with. The scars headed by them said coldly, "This is our territory. If you don't want to die, leave me immediately!"
Aunt Qing saw the other person in a crowd and immediately rolled Qin Feng and Han Ningshuang.
Ye Qi kept up with them and said in his mind, "Yuezhou is not safe here. Suddenly a group of robbers broke into the broken temple. Aunt Qing fled with two children. I followed them...ah..."
A short cry rang in my mind.
Shao Qingge's face changed and immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
Ye Qi was trapped in a giant net that fell from the sky.
Looking at the group of people in black in front, Ye Qi calmed down quickly and smiled and asked, "Big brother, what is this for?"
The scarred face narrowed his eyes and said, "I have said that this is my territory. You are still sneaking in the trees. Since you are self-sufficient, the brothers are just hungry, and you are caught hungry." He turned to the side The partners waved their hands, and a group of people immediately came over, and the knife in their hands shone cold white light under the moonlight.
Ye Qi's whole body was **** by an iron net, and it was impossible to use musical instruments such as guzheng, piano, and flute.
The group of people turned their eyes red and slobbered towards Ye Qi. While the hungry beast finally saw delicious food, the bloodthirsty and crazy eyes made Ye Qi's heart feel cold.
When people look at it with the "look at food", it's really goose bumps to fall!
Shao Qingge felt the nervousness of Ye Qi in his mind and couldn't help being anxious.
Ye Qidao said "No, I can handle..."
The next moment, Ye Qi simply used the insect ace.
The instrument card cannot be used, but the transformation of the insect king can be activated at any time.
The besieged crowd saw the trapped teenager's eyes suddenly lit up, his dark and clear eyes suddenly stained with a layer of blood red, the teenager's red eyes swept around, and his extended hands suddenly grew sharp nails ——Those nails are like knives, and the metal mesh that trapped him is torn into pieces!
A group of people was taken a step back by the suddenly transformed teenager.
Ye Qi turned into a worm king, but his consciousness was still sober. He knew that he and Shao Qingge came to this world just to investigate the case. It is best not to do anything that affects the ending of the characters in this world. Therefore, Ye Qi didn't have a love fight after he transformed, he jumped forward, stepped directly on the shoulder of a strong man in front, and quickly climbed to the nearby tree.
I saw that the boy climbed and jumped along the tree, his body was as light as a bird flying in the forest, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. A group of people froze in place, and after a long time, the headed man shook his head violently and whispered, "Is this man a monster? How can the eyes suddenly become blood-colored?"
The brothers next to him finally responded, trembling, "Scared, scared to death!"
The scarred face twitched and said, "No matter what he does, go and see if there is any food nearby."
Ye Qi, who was intercepted by them, lost the three aunts and could only use the 500-meter range of the bug to search around. Shao Qingge felt relieved when Ye Qi lifted the crisis, and he asked softly in his mind, "Are you all right?"
Ye Qi laughed and said, "It's okay, the insect king is too good. Those miscellaneous fish are not my opponent at all."
Shao Qingge said, "You still have to be careful..."
As soon as the words fell, a fire suddenly appeared in Ye Qi's field of vision.
The Zerg’s greatest weakness is its fear of fire. Ye Qi’s instinctive fear stopped Ye Qi immediately. He looked at the raging fire ahead, and his heart could not help but tense. “Someone set fire in Yuezhou City, and the whole city was burned. The whereabouts of the three aunts are unknown, I..."
Before finishing, Shao Qingge immediately interrupted him to "retreat immediately!"
Ye Qi frowned tangledly. "But, I haven't found the whereabouts of Aunt Qing, Han Ningshuang and Qin Feng. Isn't this a clue lost?"
Shao Qingge said, "Do you still want to break into the fire?"
Ye Qi "..."
Shao Qingge's voice was rarely serious. "Ye Qi, don't take risks." He paused and whispered, "Don't worry me, withdraw quickly, okay?"
Breaking into the fire was indeed a "finding death" behavior. Ye Qi looked at the blazing fire not far away and had to reluctantly say, "Well, then I went to hide in the distance for a while, and after the fire went out, I tried to find those three people. . I don’t know why it suddenly caught fire..."
Shao Qingge said softly, "Hide away, the cause of the fire will be too late to investigate tomorrow."
A violent wind raged and the fire came, Ye Qi was almost burnt to his eyebrows, and he hurried back a few dozen steps, leaving Yuezhou City far away, he heard a scream of screams in the city, and many people fled with fire everywhere The body was scorched and gradually turned into a ball of black charcoal, and the air was filled with the smell of human meat being roasted.
Ye Qi hid in the distant tree and watched this scene with fear.
I wonder if Aunt Qing and her two children can survive this fire?
The fire burned for several hours, and suddenly there was heavy snow in the middle of the night, and the fire gradually became smaller. The fire was completely extinguished when the sky was dark. Ye Qi hurriedly entered Yuezhou City. His eyes swept quickly around, and the streets were covered The burnt houses and the bones of the burned people could not be traced to the three aunts.
Ye Qi walked a full circle around Yuezhou City. When he thought that the three aunts were likely to be away from Yuezhou, suddenly, a whimper came from the bug-it was Han Ningshuang.
Ye Qi looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw that Han Ningshuang, who was burned half of her hair, knelt in the corner of an alley and cried in a hug holding a woman's body, almost breathless - that woman was Aunt Qing.
Aunt Qing's face was full of blood, and it seemed that something had smashed her head. Judging from Han Ningshuang's reaction, her young aunt might have been accidentally killed by a falling object in the fire to save the child.
Qin Feng has long disappeared, but a shoe fell beside Han Ningshuang. Ye Qi remembered that he had placed the bug in this shoe at the time. Qin Feng happened to drop this shoe, and Ye Qi would have difficulty tracking him. Has fallen.
Shao Qingge felt the change in Ye Qi’s emotions and could not help but whispered, “There was a famine 20 years ago, and there was chaos everywhere. It’s not your fault to lose the clue. Don’t be too blamed.”
Ye Qi smiled bitterly, "Aunt Qing is dead, Qin Feng and Han Ningshuang are gone, Han Ningshuang cried holding Aunt Qing's body, alas... these children are also ill-fated. We come from twenty years later, knowing that Qin Feng is still alive, But looking at Han Ningshuang's reaction, she apparently thought Qin Feng was also burnt to the side-next to Qin Feng's shoe, there was a charred body of a little boy."
Shao Qingge was silent for a moment, and said, "Han Ningshuang and Qin Feng were separated in this fire in Yuezhou City. Qin Feng should have been adopted by well-meaning people. It can be seen that he is very talented in adulthood. As for Han Ningshuang, the only son is alone. How do you survive?"
Ye Qidao "I will continue to follow her."
Shao Qingge urged "Be careful about safety."
After the fire, the Yuezhou city was in disarray, famine, and the fire, the residents of the city were countless dead and wounded. Han Ningshuang carried Aunt Qing’s body and Qin Feng’s shoes outside the city, dug a pit and buried it, knelt in front of the mound and knocked three loud noises, then wiped away tears and limped to find The group of people who drove them away in the broken temple just now.
Seeing the little girl going back for the first scarred face, she wondered, "This little girl is brave enough, how come back?"
Although her hair was burned in half and her face was dirty, her little girl’s eyes were very clear and bright. She looked at each other seriously and said, "Uncle, as long as you don’t kill me, give me a bite, I’m willing Make you cattle and horses. I can wash clothes and cook. By the way, I can also make kites. Beautiful kites."
The scarred face met her eyes, froze for a moment, and then smiled after a while, "Kite can't eat, what's the use of kite making?"
The little girl thought for a while and said, "It can be used to sell money."
A group of people around were amused by her naive words, and some people whispered "I can't eat enough, what is the use of money?" "Who cares about money this year? Give me a chicken to kill and eat, comparable to twelve silver Much better!"
Han Ningshuang seriously said, "After the famine, the money will be useful. I can make hundreds of kites a day, and all the money I sell can be given to the uncle."
Suddenly silent in the broken temple, the scar face smiled and waved toward Han Ningshuang, "Come here."
Han Ningshuang obediently walked over, the man rubbed her head and said, "You little girl is quite interesting, so that in the future you will follow me and be my apprentice. You can't eat much of a child, we eat meat, always Can divide your soup."
Han Ningshuang immediately knelt down and gave him some heads, "Thank you, Master!"
After dawn, this group of robbers left Yuezhou with Han Ningshuang. They burned and robbed all the way, but they grabbed a lot of food. Unexpectedly, Han Ningshuang would be taken as apprentice by the bandit leader.
Ye Qidao said, "The ending of Han Ningshuang should have survived with this group of people. These robbers don't do psychic surgery, but just use the knife to scare the reckless man. If she has been following this group of people, she can't learn from other channels. Soul hooking evil spirits, so Han Ningshuang should not be the direct killer of Qingfeng Town's "Li Gui Suoming Case"?"
Shao Qingge thought for a moment and said, "It seems that Qi Ran is the most suspected."
Ye Qi said with a headache. "The murderer only started committing crimes after seventeen years. We can't follow them for seventeen years... With the current clues, guess the murderer. Do you think the correct rate is high?"
Shao Qingge smiled and said, “I don’t like Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang who need 100% accuracy. It’s normal for a business to have profits and losses, there are risks in investment, and there is a risk of guessing wrong. Weighing risks and pros and cons, choosing the most beneficial Everyone’s approach is my principle."
Ye Qi listened for a long time, and finally understood what he meant-that is, whether it was right or wrong, it was enough to choose the most beneficial way for everyone. At present, they do not have food in their hands, they are hungry every day, and they cannot affect people in this world, so as not to cause the plot change of later generations. In order to get the correct answer, they cannot follow Han Ningshuang and Qi Ran for 17 years.
Ye Qi asked curiously, "What do you want to do?"
Shao Qingge said, “In the exam, answering multiple-choice questions sometimes depends on Mongolia. We might as well bet once. Qi Ran, Han Ningshuang and Zhou Xiaoyun choose one of three. Now Han Ningshuang's suspicion is greatly reduced. Zhou Xiaoyun doesn't look like a person with a deep mind. , I think Qi Ran is the most likely murderer. The book in his hand, his attitude towards the death of his mother-in-law, and the characteristics of his severed finger, as well as the scars left on his face after the chickenpox disease was cured, A personality that will be psychologically distorted and madly vengeful when you grow up."
There are four options a, b, c, and d. The d option Qin Feng was temporarily excluded by Xiao Lou 20 years later. Among the remaining a, b, and c, the two girls b and c didn't look too much. Like, the a option is the same, indeed it is most like the correct answer.
As Shao Qingge said, when you encounter multiple-choice questions in the exam, if you are really not 100% sure, sometimes you have to rely on gambling.
Ye Qi agreed, "I also think Qi Ran is more likely. But how do we leave these clues to Professor Xiao?"
Shao Qingge asked, "What can be kept for 20 years without damage?"
Ye Qi scratched his head. "Can it be preserved for 20 years? In modern times, it must be the data in the USB flash drive. But now it is ancient, and it will not be broken in 20 years... I can't think of it for a moment."
Shao Qingge said with a smile, "Silver."
Ye Qi "..."
It is normal for rich people to think about money in the first place.
