Chapter 311 The bloody case in the Tibetan sword cottage
"I want revenge!" The woman in the red dress suddenly bent her fingers into claws and hit Li Ming's chest with one claw.
With a bang, the health bar above his head dropped by more than 80% in an instant, and his entire body was directly knocked away by the powerful force, flying backwards towards the door...
Suddenly being knocked several meters away, Li Ming lay on the steps at the entrance of the palace, and the palace door in front of him suddenly closed again.
Everyone rushed forward and helped him up from the ground in surprise.
Li Ming quickly waved his short staff and blessed himself with healing skills. The scene just now still left him with lingering fear.
"The jade pendant doesn't seem to be working, but she still launched an attack." Lonely Ruyan asked in confusion.
"Yes, the jade pendant is not a condition for accepting the mission, but she seems to be very interested in this jade pendant..." Li Ming also felt a little strange. The woman's attention was obviously attracted by the jade pendant, but why couldn't she accept it?
Got a mission clue?
Could it be...
"By the way Hua Zi, hurry up and bring over the body of the child just now. That is the tool to unlock the mission clue!" Li Ming suddenly realized.
This jade pendant is just something for a child. For this resentful demon soul who seems to be in a trance, the jade pendant is not enough...
"Okay." Fan Hua immediately turned around and rushed to one side of the hall.
After a while, I saw him rushing towards me holding the skeleton.
"Give it to me. You should stay away from each other to avoid any accidents." Li Ming took the body and motioned for everyone to stay away from Yuan.
After they all retreated a few meters, he summoned up the courage to push open the palace door again...
This time he looked extra cautiously to the left. The white bones in the far corner were motionless. But as he took a step forward and just crossed the threshold, he suddenly saw jade fragments scattered on the ground.
From the block, streaks of red light flew out, quickly condensing into the shape of a woman in red in mid-air, and then flying towards...
Now I can see clearly, the demon spirit of resentment is actually hidden in these broken jade stones!
There was a flash of red light, and the ghostly demon soul with long hair and face covered his face was suspended in front of Li Ming. A pair of blood-red eyes stared fiercely into his eyes, and his claws were already flying towards him!
Li Ming quickly stretched out his hand and placed the skeleton in front of him, tilting his head back in fear.
As soon as the corpse was placed in front of the demon soul, time seemed to freeze. The resentful demon soul showed a surprised look in its eyes. The blood-red eyes slowly turned into normal black pupils, and its pale hands gently picked up the corpse.
Pass this corpse...
Looking at the extremely cherished look on it, as if afraid of breaking the corpse, he held it with both hands horizontally, as if he was still holding his own child, and turned around to float to the corner of the hall.
Li Ming couldn't help but quietly followed her, as she walked all the way to the deep corner of the hall...
It seems that the plot set by the system is to make this demon soul lose her mind and only want revenge, but only by placing the bones of her child in front of her can she temporarily wake up.
No wonder she was called the Demon Soul of Resentment, and a resentment she had before her death was attached to the broken jade, and it continues to this day...
At this time, Li Ming was no longer afraid, but rather sympathized with the woman in red.
Walking to the corner, he watched the woman in the red dress bend down gently and put the child's bones in her arms. Then she stood up and slowly faced Li Ming...
He was so frightened that he was ready to run away at any time, but when the woman in the red dress turned around and looked at him with a pair of black eyes, all the fear had disappeared.
"Thank you for sending my child's body. I have nothing to repay. You can take whatever you want from the cottage." The resentful demon soul suddenly made a pleasant female voice.
"Madam, you're welcome. We just came to this village by chance and found that it had been bloodbathed by gangsters, so we checked carefully. We didn't come here just for the sake of gain." Li Ming shook his head and said.
"I don't want to talk about what has happened. Now that I have seen the child's body, I can leave with peace of mind. You'd better leave here as soon as possible so as not to get into unnecessary trouble." The resentful demon soul sighed and said.
"Madam, don't you want to take revenge?" Li Ming asked doubtfully.
"Revenge? This remnant of my soul wants revenge from the bottom of my heart! But I also know that now I can't even leave the main hall, and I still talk about revenge..." The demon soul of resentment seemed to have seen the child's body.
, nothing matters anymore.
"Madam said this, but let those evil guys continue to be at large. If you can trust me, please tell me about this matter, and I will definitely investigate it to the end! Li Ming said quickly.
If the resentful demon soul does not want revenge, then he will not be able to receive the mission clues here. He is still very clear about the stakes.
"Are you willing to help the 1,600 people in Hidden Sword Village to avenge their grievances?" The eyes of the Resentful Demon Soul lit up, as if seeing some hope, but then dimmed: "Forget it, your strength is limited.
Our enemies are so powerful..."
"Please tell me what happened in this village. Maybe I can help you." Li Ming said politely.
"Are you really willing to help our cottage find the real murderer?" The Resentful Demon Soul asked in surprise.
"I can clearly swear here that as long as you tell me the situation here, I will definitely help you track it down. No matter who they are, as long as they are still alive, I promise to make them pay the price!" Li Ming said coldly.
The most reason for bloodbathing the village is for money, but these people are so vicious that even if they kill the entire village, they actually behead one by one in public, and even the children will not be spared...
Whether in the game or in reality, Li Ming has always been able to get rid of his bad habit of being nosy, otherwise he would not have lost his job as a security guard...
The resentful demon soul couldn't believe him at first, but looking at his indignant look, it didn't look like he was just pretending, and his eyes couldn't help but shine with surprise...
Ding... System: Congratulations to the player. You have successfully triggered the hidden mission plot of [Hidden Sword Villa] [Copycat Murder Case]. If you choose to talk to the resentful demon soul again, you will officially start the mission plot. Once selected, it cannot be undone.
This task is extremely difficult, and there will be time limits and penalty conditions after accepting it, so please decide carefully!
…
In an instant, a system information prompt popped up, and a golden mission mark appeared above the head of the Resentful Demon Soul, indicating that he had successfully gained the trust of the mission NPC and was willing to release this mission clue to him.
Great, the mission clue was finally triggered...
However, Li Ming felt a little nervous when he saw the system warning on the information prompt.
Such a hidden task cannot be undone, and the system clearly states that the task is extremely difficult. The most troublesome thing is the task time limit and the penalty conditions for failure...
"Come in, the mission has been triggered." Li Ming quickly sent them a screenshot of the system information in the team channel.
