Zhang Yuanqing, Zhai Cai and Tianxia Guihuo, who had already inspected the body, began to rummage through boxes and cabinets in search of valuable clues, while Sun Miaomiao and Zhao Chenghuang continued to observe the body, trying to find clues that their companions had missed.
Tianxiaguihuo opened the wardrobe, threw the layers of gorgeous dresses outside, took out the silver coins hidden in the wooden boxes, and looked at the pieces of jewelry carefully.
Zhai Cai was rummaging around on the bed, examining and sniffing.
Brother Red Rooster, who was not good at fine work, stood beside the bed and watched the single knight sticking his buttocks up and looking around on the bed, sometimes sniffing lightly, and asked curiously:
"What are you doing?"
Zhai Cai raised her eyes and looked at him: "I'm looking for evidence of Bigfoot's murder."
"What?" Brother Hongji was stunned.
"Bigfoot likes to rob women and eat human organs. Now that the evidence of eating human organs has been found, I have to look for the second evidence." Zhai Cai said.
"Why didn't you think of that when you checked the body?" Brother Red Rooster thought he was right.
"I am an upright knight, that would offend Ya Lansi, even though she is already a corpse!" As she spoke, Zhai Cai twisted a long hair from the pillow, "It seems that Ya Lansi did not
suffered other injuries.”
Brother Red Rooster didn’t understand and asked: “Why!”
"Because the bed has not been replaced and there are no signs of struggle around the body, our Mr. Dong has analyzed it and found that the deceased was swallowed while he was in a coma." Zhai Cai explained tirelessly, looking like a good teacher.
Usually such people like to show their holiness in front of others.
Brother Hongji suddenly realized it, with a look of regret on his face, and said bitterly: "Damn it, it turns out I'm not the murderer. This is difficult."
"I didn't say that your suspicion has been cleared. You do have Bigfoot blood, but you are just a bastard. Maybe Monroe doesn't like women and only likes to eat their internal organs." Zhai Cai said with a smile.
Brother Red Rooster felt that he was swearing, but he couldn't refute.
At this time, Zhang Yuanqing's voice attracted everyone: "Come and take a look, there is a note here."
Brother Hong Ji and Zhai Cai were at the bedside, Sun Miaomiao and Zhao Chenghuang were at the window, and Tianxia Guihuo was rummaging through the wardrobe. They all put down what they were doing and rushed to the desk.
The desk was very clean. There were a bottle of carbon ink, a quill pen, and several rolls of paper made of flax fiber and diluted cotton. They were originally tied with hemp rope, but had been untied by Zhang Yuanqing.
——There are no books in this era!
The team members rushed behind Zhang Yuanqing and looked at the simple book in his hand.
There were rather scrawled letters written on the paper:
"Dong is a charming man. I found emotional comfort and physical pleasure in him. I originally wanted to keep him and make him the master of the castle, but he had taboos against the Lance family.
He has a strong curiosity, which will destroy my family. I have no choice but to expel him."
Brother Red Rooster was not ashamed to ask: "What is written on it?"
Zhai Cai exclaimed: "It writes about physical pleasure and emotional comfort!"
Zhao Chenghuang said solemnly: "Jumang's character Dong is the lover of the owner of the castle."
He translated the contents on the paper to Brother Red Rooster.
"So you are the murderer, right? In order to obtain the taboo of the Lance family, you killed the owner of the castle." Brother Red Rooster suddenly realized.
However, no one paid attention to him. Zhang Yuanqing put down the paper in his hand, picked up another one and showed it to everyone:
"Every night, I hear a cat meowing from the ground of the castle. She is becoming more and more active. Oh my god, what should I do? Our family has lost its magic. God, I pray to you to save my family.
Bar."
Zhang Yuanqing said: "Only the information recorded on these two pieces of paper is valuable. You don't need to look at the others. They are the castle's cashier and income account books."
Zhai Cai touched her chin, "Combining the plot and combining it with the character information revealed by Ju Mang before, well. The ancestors of the Lance family were proficient in magic and sealed 'her' underground in the castle. It was taboo for 'her' family. Not long ago,
The seal was loose, and Ya Lansi would hear the cat meowing every night. The cat's meowing should be a symbol of 'her' recovery. The magic inheritance of the Lansi family was cut off, so Ya Lansi could only turn to her old lover Master Dong, although Master Dong
I once coveted the taboo sealed under the castle."
"I didn't expect that we were actually lovers." Zhang Yuanqing looked at Sun Miaomiao: "Wo Nen Die?"
Sun Miaomiao: "Get out!"
Zhao Chenghuang frowned:
"Now that the owner of the castle has been brutally murdered, does it mean that 'she' from the underground of the castle has come out? In this case, the murderer of the owner of the castle should be 'she'.
"If that's the case, we need to find 'her' name next, and then pronounce it together to complete the level."
Zhang Yuanqing said:
"Then let's follow the plot and search the underground of the castle to see what is there. Anyway, no one's skills or inventory have been sealed, so even if they encounter monsters, they are still capable of fighting.
"Alas, Guan Ya was killed by the plot and turned into a box. We can only investigate the case ourselves."
His proposal was approved by his teammates. The group left the castle owner's room, went down the stone steps, returned to the first floor, and found a wooden door wrapped in iron at the end of the left corridor.
The lock on the iron door was picked open.
Zhang Yuanqing reached out and pushed gently, and the iron door creaked open. It was dark behind the door, and the granite polished steps extended down into the darkness.
Humid and corrupted air poured into his nasal cavity.
"I used the resentful spirit to explore the way." Sun Miaomiao said.
When her teammates nodded, she spit out a supernatural realm servant wearing a dirty sarong and sent it floating into the basement.
About ten minutes later, Sun Miaomiao whispered:
"There is no danger down there, it is indeed a sealed place."
Hearing this, Brother Red Rooster pushed through the crowd, held up a basketball-like fireball in his palm, and took the lead into the basement along the stone steps.
The fireball burned, and the orange light smeared on the stone walls, shaking like water.
The footsteps of everyone echoed in the silent basement. In less than three minutes, they walked up the stone steps and arrived at the basement of the castle.
No one has set foot in the basement of the castle for many years. There are cobwebs in the corners of the walls, and the stone bricks on the floor are covered with irregular mud marks. These are traces formed by dust accumulation and infiltration by moisture in the air.
The basement was very large, and the basketball-like fireball was not enough to illuminate it. Brother Red Rooster held it up with his hands and condensed a large fireball with a diameter of one meter, which illuminated the entire basement.
The basement is generally empty, with a sarcophagus in the center. The sarcophagus is located on a circular array, which is composed of countless six-pointed stars of mixed sizes.
At this time, the lid of the sarcophagus had been opened and lay aside.
Runes? Zhang Yuanqing could tell at a glance that the circle formation and the formation depicted by the cardinal in the copy of "Thriller Cruise" were very similar, and they should have come from the same source.
Zhai Cai examined the circular formation on the ground by the light of the fire, frowned and said:
"Black magic, a variant of runes! I understand, the Lance family is a witch family, and the source of black magic is runes. Compared with pure runes, black magic is more vicious and cruel, and because it is not
For the sake of authenticity, practitioners can only be women, so many witch families appeared in the Middle Ages."
Sun Miaomiao pointed to the sarcophagus and said:
"There's something in the coffin."
Everyone came closer and looked inside the sarcophagus through the firelight. They saw a skinned cat lying in the sarcophagus. The tender red flesh and blood were shocking, and the amber vertical pupils were wide open, which was extremely terrifying.
"Cat? Guan Ya wrote in the paper that she hears cats meowing every day, is this one? But why is it dead?" Brother Red Rooster wondered. He had forgotten the name of the owner of the castle, the name of the foreigner.
I can't remember it even after watching it several times.
Everyone was unable to answer and were speechless for a moment. They all looked at the single knight of the Holy See.
Zhai Cai glanced around and turned the coffin lid over. In the dancing firelight, he saw the front of the coffin lid, with twisted and weird mantras painted in blood.
The single knight suddenly showed a look of surprise and said:
"Cats are sacrificed."
He pointed to the incantation on the front of the coffin lid, "This is a kind of sacrificial magic, specially used to summon and resurrect evil things. In black magic, cats are the symbol of the night, and blood is a material rich in feminine power. For practicing black magic,
For magical witches, cats are both tonics and a good carrier of black magic. In the Middle Ages, witches liked to keep a cat in case of emergency."
"So 'she' has indeed come out." Zhang Yuanqing nodded, "The one sealed in the coffin should also be a witch, a witch who has a grudge against the Lance family."
As soon as he finished speaking, a prompt sounded in everyone's ears:
[Successfully unlocked the forbidden secret of the Lance family. You have attracted the attention of 'her'. She activates a skill every half hour to let the castle enter the night. She will randomly kill a member at night. Please give it a try within three hours.
Find the murderer.】
[Remark 1: It is prohibited to use skills and props at night.]
[Note 2: Under the influence of her power, the time limit of points is invalid. You can choose to use points or not. 】
"I knew it wasn't that simple." In Zhang Yuanqing's mind, ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped past.
"It's getting more and more interesting, it's getting more and more interesting!" Zhai Cai also said ten thousand "fuck"s in her heart.
The difficulty has soared!
"Half an hour, we still have half an hour!" Tianxia Guihuo said quickly: "The clues in our hands are not enough, we must seize the time."
"There's not half an hour left," Zhang Yuanqing shook his head, "Do you still remember the rules we saw when we came in? The scroll is only three hours long. Guan Ya is dead. There are six of us in total. If it's dark every half an hour, it's exactly one knife per person.
The time period ends, so the time should be calculated from the time you enter the dungeon."
"Only ten minutes!" Zhao Chenghuang's face changed slightly, Ye Youshen was very sensitive to time.
Counting from the time they got the characters, they had been in the scroll for twenty minutes.
Brother Red Chicken became anxious when he heard this: "What should I do? We haven't found out who the murderer is yet. Ten minutes is not enough. As expected, the battle dungeon is the best. Why don't we give it a try and let's all read my name together."
"Why are you so anxious?" The more difficult the dungeon, the calmer Zhang Yuanqing became, "One person dies in half an hour. We have six people and can die five times. As long as the last person successfully solves the case, we can survive."
His calm tone and calm look infected everyone.
"But we don't even have a direction for the investigation." Sun Miaomiao frowned.
Zhang Yuanqing said: "The buzzer has told us the direction of the investigation. Points are the key to this case. The rules outside tell us to use the points early, and the buzzer emphasizes the points again."
"How to use points?" Sun Miaomiao asked.
"I don't know!" Zhang Yuanqing walked up the stone steps: "Go back to the top first."
This time they did not take the steps, but jumped to the top of the steps and returned to the castle.
They rushed to the second floor without stopping. Everyone did not enter Ya Lansi's room again. They split up and searched other rooms in a tacit understanding.
There are seven or eight rooms on the second floor.
Brother Red Rooster kicked the door of the first room on the left side of the stairs, but he didn't even open it. This simple wooden door had a rusty iron lock hanging on it. It looked fragile, but in fact it was indestructible.
Brother Red Chicken held the copper lock, and after a few seconds, he found item information popping up.
"Master Dong, this is your room. You need to use points to unlock it."
The team members swarmed over and gathered in front of the simple wooden door. Zhang Yuanqing held the copper lock and read the item information:
[Name: Ordinary door lock]
[Type: metal products]
[Function: anti-theft]
[Introduction: Master Dong’s door lock is restricted and requires the owner to open it in person.]
[Note: To open this lock, you need ten points.]
Zhang Yuanqing saw a dialog box appear in his field of vision:
[Whether to pay 10 points,]
"Pay!" He opened the door without hesitation.
The rusty iron lock popped open with a sound.
It was at this time that everyone heard a shrill, shrill meow. Immediately afterwards, the light in the castle quickly dimmed, and darkness fell.
