Chapter 137 The role of silver coins
Zhou Ming sighed helplessly, thinking that the other party's strange habits might have been engraved in his bones.
"Teacher, there is one more thing I want to tell you. I met a person during my mission this time, and he asked me to tell you, 'You two are not the only ones who came back alive from the cave.'"
The moment Zhou Ming said these words, Zhu Ying's eyes suddenly opened wide, her hands on the table suddenly clenched, and her nails rubbed against the wooden table, making a harsh noise.
The sudden unusual noise caused the customers in the store to look towards the two of them curiously, and even the waiter cast his gaze.
Zhou Ming saw Zhu Ying's face full of horror, and even saw a kind of panic on her face!
Her pupils shrank to the smallest size, but her eyes opened to the largest size, but their eyes were empty.
She maintained the same expression and posture for a full ten seconds before exhaling heavily.
Only then did Zhou Ming realize that she had stopped breathing just now.
Zhu Ying picked up the coffee again and took a sip. Zhou Ming saw that the coffee in the other person's cup was shaking slightly, and the waves were very discordant.
"Tell me everything about that person, no details left out," she said.
…
Zhou Ming spent fifteen minutes telling the other party all the details he could recall, and Zhu Ying fell into deep thought for a long time after listening.
"Teacher, do you know him?"
"Yes, I know him, but I'm not sure who he is." Zhu Ying sighed and whispered, "Years ago, before I was old enough to awaken to the magic, I once served as an auxiliary member of a team of magicians and went deep into Bermuda.
We were conducting exploration work on the Triangular Islands, and encountered something unexpected there. In the end, only me and another companion came out alive.
"The team of magicians who went there were all wiped out, and we were the only ones who survived, and only my liaison officer and the superior department knew about the result.
"Although strictly speaking, the person you met may not be my companion back then, and may also be someone who knows about this matter, but judging from the fact that he can recognize the silver coin around your neck at a glance, he is likely to be involved.
carried out the detection work that year.
"I'm not sure who he is, because we didn't have the awakening spell at that time, and the clues you gave us weren't enough."
Zhou Ming was a little disappointed after hearing this. He thought he could learn something from Zhu Ying.
"But I have a clue about some things. You just said that he took away the poker man in the end, which reminded me of something." Zhu Yingshen said mysteriously.
"What's the matter?" Seeing the mysterious look on the other party's face, Zhou Ming couldn't help but lower his voice.
Zhu Ying: "Recently, the relevant departments have discovered a very strange phenomenon. When the commissioners were performing tasks recently, the death rate of the hermits increased sharply, and the entire team was often wiped out. The relevant departments repeatedly misjudged the danger level of the tasks.
In the end, we had to frequently increase the danger level of the mission and send stronger teams to solve the weirdness.
"But the strange thing is that the C-level team went and died, and the B-level team also died. Even if the A-level team was sent, some of the victims in the A-level team could not even find their bodies.
"So in the end, the department had no choice but to send people like me to solve it. After we went there, we found out that the mission was not Transcendent A Grade at all, just C Grade... So why did you say those people who died died? Mr.
It can't be that C-level weird thing.
"In this case, it is natural to think that someone is hunting and killing the commissioners of the relevant departments. Just like the man wearing a Rakshasa mask you mentioned just now, he killed a large number of people, but took away a few of them, and
It's similar to the case I mentioned, right?
"The situation I'm talking about has been going on for a long time in the City of Mist. A few days ago, the superiors planned to send me there to find out about this matter. After all, too many people have died. If we continue to let the situation go unchecked, it may become worse.
Unable to control."
When Zhou Ming heard this, he frowned and realized that the matter was not that simple.
He met Rakshasa Mian in Sanyang Stone Hill who was hunting magicians like this, and also wanted to take away individual magicians, and this kind of thing actually happened in the City of Mist, and what a coincidence, the City of Mist
It happens to be the birthplace of black mud.
These two seemingly unrelated events happened at the same place at the same time, which made people suspect that there was a special connection between the two. Zhou Ming even had a new conjecture.
Zhu Ying saw that Zhou Ming was thinking seriously, so she invited him: "You seem to be very interested. Do you want to go with me?"
Zhou Ming hesitated for a moment and replied: "Let me think about it again. Oh, by the way, teacher, since your silver coin is gray, does it mean that you have been seriously eroded by the curse?"
"Why are you asking? A high level of spell power does not necessarily mean that I am out of control. I am still far from losing control."
"Listen to this." Zhou Ming took out his mobile phone and put it on the table, playing the backup video taken from the original video.
This audio is only three seconds long, and it records three words spoken by Ping Xingyue.
Across the table, Zhu Ying stared at the waveless sound wave line on her phone. When the audio ended, she frowned in confusion: "What was recorded? Have you muted it?"
Zhou Ming frowned even more tightly. He still heard Ping Xingyue's voice, but the other party did not.
There is no doubt that Zhu Ying's spell level must be higher than him, and she is more seriously eroded by the spell than him, but she can't hear the voice in this video, which makes the original owner's video even more bizarre.
Weird.
"What an idiot. I'm in a daze all day long! I don't have time to sit here with idle people like you." Zhu Ying looked at the time and drank the remaining coffee at the bottom of the cup. "It's almost time. I have nothing else to do."
I'm going to work, just contact me when you think about it, brat."
She stood up and left. When she passed by Zhou Ming, she patted him on the shoulder.
After Zhu Ying left, Zhou Ming continued to sit for a while before getting up and leaving. As soon as he walked to the door, he suddenly slapped his head and remembered that he had forgotten to help Zhang Wei ask Zhu Ying about his intention to meet, and he felt a little guilty in his heart.
"By the way, there is a phone number. Call and ask."
Zhou Ming picked up his cell phone and was about to dial Zhu Ying's number when Zhang Wei's call came in.
"Ah Wei, um... wait a minute, I'm still meeting with Teacher Crow." Zhou Ming used a delaying strategy.
"Okay, come over as soon as possible after you finish, something happened here." Zhang Wei's tone was a little wrong.
Zhou Ming suddenly became alert and his tone became serious: "What's wrong?"
"Teacher Zhong, he disappeared last night."
"disappeared?!"
"He is definitely missing, but it is also possible that he is dead. But the problem is that there are no clues at the scene." Zhang Wei was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "Anyway, you should come over as soon as possible. I am at the teacher's house now. The situation is a bit...
