The two of them didn't move for a moment, quietly observing the situation.
The black shadow not far away was obviously also shocked. The other party seemed to have heard the conversation between the two, and hadn't moved forward for a long time, as if they were also analyzing the situation.
A moment later, the two sides tentatively moved forward at the same time, and a familiar face appeared in the dark figure in front of them. It turned out to be Joe with deep blue eyes and a golden eagle necklace hanging on his chest.
Qiao saw the two of them clearly, he let out a long sigh of relief, and said with a sense of loss, "It's not you."
Chu Qianli once quarreled with Qiao at the entrance of the lobby. She didn't expect to meet again in Tingfengxiyu Building, and she felt strange for a while when she heard that there was something in his words.
"Did you see anyone else?" Joe asked.
"We should pretend not to see other people, after all, they all sneaked here to inquire ahead of time." Chu Qianli complained, and seeing him alone, said casually, "Where's your companion?"
When Joe was asked about this, he lowered his head worriedly: "They just arrived at the hospital, and their condition is fairly stable, no fatal injuries..."
Tan Muxing asked in surprise, "Is the person who was injured and retired last night your companion?"
Huang Jue once said at breakfast that a foreigner was injured and retired, probably because he was injured by a ghost in a haunted house.
Chu Qianli raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you claim to have patron saints? How could you still be injured?"
"Our patron saint can only exorcise evil spirits, but someone deliberately slandered them yesterday!" Joe frowned. "After entering the building last night, my companion and I acted separately, but they fell down the stairs inexplicably, and I don't know who pushed them down."
"We all come here after finishing the ceremony. It is impossible to be attacked by evil creatures. The opponent can only be a person of flesh and blood." Qiao said angrily, "I suspect that someone has been staying here, intentionally harming the examinees who came to investigate, and spreading the news to the outside world. Said that the evil spirits here can't even deal with us!"
According to Joe, he and his companions are researching runes, which belong to the Nordic patron saint system, and their team is well-known overseas. Joe's partner was accidentally injured and retired, which also had a huge impact on overseas warlocks, and many of them chose to give up the second round of selection in panic.
This kind of situation also occurs in the Chinese magic circle. It is estimated that the domestic magicians with fractures encountered the same group of people. I am afraid that they were not attacked by ghosts, but by people pretending to be ghosts.
Qiao said angrily: "These people maliciously framed my companions and smeared our reputation outside. Now I have been laughed at by the European circle!"
Qiao and the others are also well-known figures in the European occult circles. Now that most of the team was lost on the first night, many colleagues naturally gloated over their misfortune.
"Be confident, not only the European circle, the laughter spreads all over the world." After Chu Qianli finished speaking, she lowered her head and edited the news again, with a hint of worry in her eyes, "If someone pushes you down, you have to remind Sister Ru Z, Otherwise, go meet her first."
Although Chu Qianli and Qiao confronted each other at the entrance of the lobby, in the final analysis, both sides had a bottom line, and they would not intentionally use spells to attack others, nor would they have the idea of killing others.
Chu Qianli and the others are indeed not afraid of gods, gods and ghosts, but they are hard to guard against real people harming them in the dark. This cannot be avoided by fortune-telling alone. They parted from Meiru Z just now, and it was exactly the same as what happened to Joe last night, so there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents.
Tan Muxing: "Did Miss Ru Z call you back?"
"No, maybe I didn't see it." Chu Qianli counted, "Let's find her directly."
The two were not familiar with Joe, they met in a hurry in the Tingfengxiyu Building, and after hearing about the misery of the other party's companion, it seemed that they didn't know what else to exchange.
"Then I'll go find those people." Joe didn't stop for a long time. He waved goodbye to the two and embarked on a journey of revenge for his companions.
Tan Muxing was stunned: "Are you going to find them?"
"Yes, my companion left traces yesterday, but I didn't see this group of people during the day. The patron saint said that they are still in the building and basically operate at night. The traces will disappear soon. We must hurry up."
Any spell has a time limit and conditions. If the traces in Joe's hands disappear, there is really no proof.
Chu Qianli looked at the back of Qiao Yiran leaving, she asked in a daze: "How can this foreigner be so confident, isn't he afraid that the gourd baby will save grandpa?"
Chu Qianli still remembered that Qiao's companions were tall and powerful. They could have been framed when they came in in a group yesterday. Wouldn't it be more dangerous to go alone now
However, the two of them can't take care of persuading Joe, who is determined to go his own way, and it is more important to find Meiru Z who is alone.
At the closed elevator door, Mei Ru Z was quite surprised to see the two people rushing over, and asked strangely, "Why are you here now? Didn't you agree to meet by the fence?"
"This should be the elevator where the murder happened. I just made a guess. There was a woman who stepped on the air in the elevator patio more than ten years ago and fell to her death..." Mei Ru Z frowned, "But the hexagram here is too fierce. I have encountered an accidental death, but it is not as dangerous as this hexagram, and it is even more dangerous than the death of several people."
Chu Qianli hurriedly said: "Let's not mention this, sister Ru Z has not met any strange people."
"weirdo?"
Tan Muxing explained: "A foreign magician said that his companion was pushed down the stairs here yesterday."
"So mad?" Mei Ru Z was stunned, "I don't seem to have met anyone else, but I always heard the wind when I came in, and I don't know where it came from."
Mei Ru Z suddenly realized: "That's why you came here specially to find me?"
Chu Qianli made a decision: "Let's act together. Historical experience tells us that placing orders will not end well."
At this moment, a howl suddenly came from upstairs, which was particularly abrupt in the silent and dark building!
Tan Muxing and Meiru Z turned their heads to look for the source of the sound at the same time, but Chu Qianli stared wide-eyed in horror: "This historical experience came too fast."
"Then the foreigner won't be killed by them, right?" Mei Ru Z hesitated, "Huang Jue said that the people who retired didn't see ghosts, but if you say that the foreigner can see the other party's face, he probably won't be able to keep it." .”
Those who retired during the day didn't see the face of the real culprit, so of course they couldn't identify it, and even attributed the accident to the ghost.
However, Joe claims that he has a patron saint, and he wants to arrest the pretenders. If the other party wants to continue competing, they must get rid of Joe who discovered the truth.
Chu Qianli had never seen anyone who attacked a candidate, so she could only put Joe's characteristic information into the hexagram, wondering why: "It's over, there are more bad luck and less good..."
When she first met Qiao and his party, she had a premonition that their luck was not good. She thought that Joe had escaped a catastrophe by chance yesterday, but now that she looked seriously, he might have suffered worse than her companions!
Tan Muxing: "You guys stay here, how about I go up and have a look?"
"Let's go up together, don't be alone." Mei Ru Z said flatly, "This situation cannot be separated."
The wailing disappeared quickly, and the building returned to silence not long after.
The three of them went upstairs slowly looking for the source of the sound just now, but the corridor was so dark that they couldn't see their fingers, and they couldn't turn on the flashlight to startle them.
The cry for help seemed to come from the third floor, but when Chu Qianli and the others arrived, they found nothing. There was no one in the room, and there was no sign of Qiao at all.
The three of them didn't dare to speak out rashly, Chu Qianli talked about Mu Xing's clothes, she stretched out her hand and gestured in one direction, indicating that the direction pointed by the hexagram was over there.
Meiru Z looked around, picked up the old cue in the corner, and got ready as well.
Chu Qianli slowly walked around to the back of the sofa, and found Joe with a bruised nose and a swollen face in the corner.
Qiao was tied up with hemp rope and couldn't call for help. After he saw Qian Li clearly, he struggled desperately, shaking his head frantically at her frequently to hint to stay away.
Just at this moment, a black figure leaped out from behind the thick curtains, rushing towards Chu Qianli with lightning speed, as if he had been waiting for a long time!
"Xingxing!" Chu Qianli backed away in panic, then subconsciously jumped up and nimbly slid towards the tied Qiao, seizing the opportunity to untie the other party's rope.
Tan Muxing quickly took over Chu Qianli's position. He held down the foreign burly man who rushed forward with one hand, trying to find a way to restrain the attacker.
Joe's rope was half untied, and he opened his mouth to yell, "More than one!"
Chu Qianli was untying Qiao's hands and feet, but she felt that her hoodie was being lifted forcefully, like a cub that was brutally killed by poachers.
Except for the big man who came out first to confuse the line of sight, there are other people ambushing behind the curtain!
There were actually five or six attackers hiding on the third floor. They found that there were only three people who went upstairs, and now they were pouring out from all directions, relying on the large number of people, they surrounded the group of people!
Mei Ru Z was skilled in both skills, she repelled the rushing strong man with one blow without any expression on her face, leaving no room for her strike.
Tan Muxing didn't want to hurt anyone at first, when he saw the boy being pinched by the back of his neck, a flash of panic flashed in his eyes, but he found two strong men rushing towards him again.
The raiders obviously noticed that Tan Muxing's combat power was higher, so they only sent one person to fight against Meiru Z, and the rest attacked Tan Muxing!
"I really don't like violence." Tan Muxing's eyes flickered slightly. Facing the front and back attacks, he wanted to restrain the other party at first, but now he pursed his lips slightly. After all, he fought back with a heavy punch, and said lightly, "... but the protection She can."
This punch completely had the effect of "one through two", forcing the attacker in front of him to fly backwards and hit the strong man behind him straight!
Tan Muxing didn't dare to use his strength when wrestling in Shaman Village. Seeing that Chu Qianli was arrested but in chaos, it was the first time he really punched an outsider!
He used to resent using this power, but now he has to hold onto something.
The strong man who grabbed Chu Qianli was like a hunter who grabbed the little bear and challenged the big bear face to face. Before he could react, he was hit head-on and hit the hard wall directly, wailing incessantly.
When Chu Qianli regained her freedom, she immediately jumped down nimbly, with her back to the battle situation behind her, she hurriedly untied Qiao's rope, and urged, "Go help Xing Xing and Sister Ru Z!"
Qiao was facing the battle situation. He looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, his pupils shrank slightly, and he said in a trembling voice: "...friend, do you think you still need help?"
Chu Qianli untied the rope and didn't see the situation of the battle, but Joe had a panoramic view of the state of the raging bear. He felt that her words of help were too funny!
Chu Qianli looked back, the battle was over in an instant, and five or six strong men fell to the ground in pain, clutching their stomachs twistedly, unable to get up for a long time.
Meiru Z threw the club aside, she couldn't help looking at Tan Muxing, and said in disbelief: "This is really beyond my expectation."
Tan Muxing always followed silently, Mei Ru Z had no impression of him, and did not expect that the other party was actually a thug.
The last time Mei Ru Z saw such an exaggerated fight was in a martial arts movie, and she actually mistaken the bodyguard for the nanny, this is really an outrageous joke!
Chu Qianli was confused: "This is..."
Talking about Mu Xing's wandering eyes, he didn't want to expose the rude behavior of beating and leave a bad negative impression on her, so he said softly: "I cooperated with Sister Ru Z."
Meiru Z: "?" The non-existent record has increased
