In a deep house, a man was lying on the couch. Although his eyes were closed and his breathing was even, he could not fall asleep no matter what.
At this time, a gust of wind blew by. He sat up from the bed, arranged his clothes calmly, and faced the intruder standing at the head of his bed.
"Coming?" The man's voice was low and gentle, without any sign of panic. But his hands were shaking slightly.
The intruder lowered his head, his long hair falling to the ground, and said nothing.
"I don't care why you came here. I just ask you to think carefully about whether it is worth the trip." The man said, "Money and officialdom are all easy to negotiate. As long as you leave from here, I will treat you as
Nothing happened."
The intruder slowly raised his head——
"Wu——Zhao——Kun——"
The man's eyes suddenly widened, and the composure he had pretended to be suddenly disappeared.
"You——is it you?"
"Wu Zhaokun, I hate it so much..."
The man bit his lip tightly, and a trace of blood flowed out from between his teeth. But the psychological quality he had developed through his many years of working in official circles and dealing with both black and white came into play. He snorted coldly and said in a deep voice:
"Hmph, if you want revenge, then you have found the wrong person. I am not the one who killed you!"
Seeing the half-human, half-ghost figure stretching out its arms to him, Wu Zhaokun did not flinch at all. He tried his best to keep his eyes wide open, gritted his teeth, and said viciously:
"Come on, kill me if you dare! Come on!"
At this time, Zhou Shi, who was pressing his ear to the door, raised his hand and said to Luo Ziqing behind him: "Wait a minute! Something is not quite right."
Luo Ziqing's faces were twisted together due to the force, and he said: "It's very tiring to maintain such an illusion!"
This is the mansion of Wu Zhaokun, the prefect of Jiangdu. After Zhou Shi took Luo Ziqing over the wall and sneaked in, he asked her to cover the entire house with illusions to prevent the servants from waking up, and then cast a tailor-made illusion on Wu Zhaokun who was sleeping peacefully in the main room.
, let him see Xu Linger who turned into a resentful spirit.
This is Zhou Shi's plan. After all, this is Jiangdu, with a dense population and strong yang energy. It is impossible to ask the ghosts in the inn to pretend to be ghosts like the time at Zhang Yuanwai's house. Fortunately, with Luo Ziqing's help, he can use illusions to achieve the same effect.
Effect.
However, Wu Zhaokun's reaction was far beyond his expectation.
"Why is he so calm, and as if he knows someone will come to harm him tonight... No!"
Zhou Shi felt a chill in his heart and said to Luo Ziqing: "There's a scam! Let's go!"
The two of them ran towards the courtyard wall together, but two black shadows falling in mid-air blocked their way.
One is tall and the other is short. The tall one is over eight feet tall, with shoulders as broad as bulging mountains of flesh, and two tree trunk-like arms hanging down to his knees. The short one looks like a normal person, with long hair.
Tie it behind your head and stand with your hands behind your back.
"They have been hiding on the roof. No wonder Wu Zhaokun looks confident!"
The two black figures stood up slowly, and the moonlight slanted out from behind the clouds, illuminating their green faces.
Zhou Shi was shocked, they were not living people?
It's a corpse!
Judging from the body shape, the tall man does not look like an ordinary transformed corpse. It must have been artificially modified!
Zhou Shi recalled the conversation between himself and Mr. Mo when they talked about driving corpses:
"Although driving corpses sounds weird, ordinary corpse chasers just drive the corpses to walk, saving the time of carrying them on their shoulders and hands. The truly evil ones are the lineage of corpse chasers who specialize in the method of refining corpses." "Refining a corpse?"
"Yes. Think about it, ordinary corpses can be driven away, but what about the corpses that have transformed into corpses? What about the corpses of monsters? Some corpse chasers with evil intentions have thought that if the corpses are artificially transformed into corpses, or they collect some evil spirits
corpse to drive..."
Zhou Shi looked at the majestic hill-like figure in front of him with vigilance. This must be a walking corpse after transformation, and it may even have changed in a direction guided by humans.
Luo Ziqing beside him also put on a fighting posture. Zhou Shi couldn't figure out the opponent's depth, and the opponent had no intention of taking action. He was not sure whether they were coming for him.
During the stalemate, Wu Zhaokun shouted loudly from inside the room: "What are you waiting for? Kill them!"
Turns out I was waiting for an order!
PS. I will post half a chapter first and will make up for it tomorrow. I was busy writing a report today, and now my mind is a mess.
