The rain was really heavy, and it was mixed with lightning and thunder. In addition, many people died in this place, it was a standard ghost story stage.
Anyone who is a little more timid can be scared to collapse at this moment.
Fortunately, Pei Qianhuo was very courageous and was not frightened by this battle.
In order to temporarily forget the fact that his clothes were stained with muddy water, he began to look around, looking at the surrounding environment, trying to divert his attention.
As a result, he really found a clue.
Not far in front of him, under a charred earth wall, the earth was partially washed away by the rain, revealing a little black thing.
Pei Qianhu just stared at the black spot without blinking until the rain gradually stopped.
He got up and walked out of the corner, walking under the dirt wall.
Right next to it was a shovel that was only half burned.
Pei Qianhu picked up the shovel and started shoveling.
As the soil was dug up little by little, the black thing gradually revealed the whole picture.
It was a black wooden box.
The box is made of high-quality somber wood, with a heavy weight, and there is a small and delicate copper lock on the box.
Pei Qianhu didn't know how to pick locks, and he didn't bother to go down the mountain to find a locksmith to help unlock the lock, so he broke the lock with brute force.
The wooden box was opened, and inside was a statue of a god that was half a foot tall.
The shape of the statue is very strange, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling.
Pei Qianhu shook the statue and found that there seemed to be something hidden inside the statue, so he smashed the statue on the spot.
A dark red puppet fell out of the statue.
The doll wears an iron hoop on its head, with a string of birthday characters written on the front, and a very strange black rune painted on the back.
Pei Qianhu didn't know much about runes, and he didn't know who the string of birthday characters belonged to, but he could feel that this thing was definitely a harmful evil thing, and the people who buried it here must be uneasy.
He immediately put the doll into his arms and hurriedly left Dafu Village.
After going down the mountain, Pei Qianhu found an inn nearby and planned to take a hot bath, change the dirty clothes on his body, and have a good night's rest by the way.
As a result, as soon as he entered the guest room, two masked assassins jumped out from the corner, raised their knives and slashed at his forehead!
Relying on his vigorous skills, Pei Qianhu killed the opponent with one enemy and two.
But he dared not continue to stay in the inn.
He suspects that he is being targeted, and if he stays here, he will likely encounter another assassination.
It turns out that his suspicions were right.
Over the next few days, he experienced three assassinations, each with more assassins.
Even if Pei Qianhuo was strong in martial arts, he couldn't bear so many people besieging him together.
Originally, according to his plan, it was to return to Shengjing as soon as possible. As long as he arrived in Shengjing, he would be safe.
But those assassins seemed to know that he was going to return to Shengjing, and they had been ambushed at the place where he had to go back to Shengjing, waiting for him to fall into the trap.
In order to avoid these assassins, Pei Qianhu had to give up the official road and chose to take the rugged and hidden mountain road.
Unfamiliar with the terrain, he often went in the wrong direction, lost his way a few times, and circled back and forth in the mountains.
Originally, it only took more than ten days to return to Shengjing. In order to avoid the pursuit, he just took four times more time to reach his destination.
After Pei Qianhuo finished talking about his experience, he was already lost in his eyes and had no love for life, like a broken rag doll.
"do you know
I didn't even have a chance to catch my breath along the way. I could only eat dry food when I was hungry.
After the dry food was finished, I could only eat wild fruits.
I haven't taken a bath in more than 40 days, and I live like a savage.
I am no longer the delicate, clean and dust-free me I used to be.
I feel so dirty. "
Xiao Xixi comforted: "It's okay, I don't despise you."
Pei Qianhu rolled his eyes to look at her: "Really? Then give me a hug now."
Xiao Xixi looked at his dirty clothes and the stinky smell on his body, and she showed a business smirk.
"I'm already married, so I can't hug and hug my third senior brother anymore, it's against women's law."
Pei Qianhu twitched the corners of his mouth: "I knew that nothing a woman said could be trusted."
He took out a cloth bag from his arms and threw it on the table with a snap.
Even through a thick layer of fabric, Xiao Xixi could still see the thick blood light emitting from it, which was an ominous sign.
She carefully opened the cloth bag, revealing a slap-sized doll.
The entire body of this doll was dark red, as if it had been soaked in blood, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling.
Xiao Xixi reacted in an instant: "Is this the doll you dug out of the Dafu Village?"
Pei Qianhu replied lazily, "Yes."
Xiao Xixi picked up the doll and smelled the pungent bloody smell as soon as he got close.
This thing is really bloody!
The birthday characters written on the front of the doll are exactly Luo Qinghan's birthday characters.
As for the black rune painted on the back, Xiao Xixi also felt familiar, she only thought about it for a while, and then she remembered it.
Back then, Xiao Lingfeng brought back a god statue from a member of the Salvation Cult. After the god statue was smashed, a talisman paper fell out of it.
The rune on the rune paper is exactly the same as the rune on the back of this doll!
Seeing her staring at the doll in a daze, Pei Qianhu couldn't help but ask.
"Do you know what this doll is for?"
Xiao Xixi murmured: "I suspect that someone wants to exchange Luo Qinghan's Ziwei life, and this doll may be a part of it."
Pei Qianhuo was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
"No wonder that group of people chased me like crazy, it turned out to be because I broke their conspiracy!
Having said that, I took this doll back, does that mean that their life-changing technique failed? "
Xiao Xixi shook his head: "It's not that simple. If the life-changing technique fails, Luo Qinghan should wake up at this time, but he is still in a coma."
It wasn't until now that Pei Qianhu knew that Luo Qinghan was in a coma.
After asking about Luo Qinghan's coma, he touched his chin and thought.
"Assuming your guess is true, Luo Qinghan is in a coma now, it means that the opponent's life-changing technique has entered the final step, and there is only one step left to succeed. Luo Qinghan is very dangerous."
Xiao Xixi clenched the puppet in her hand and said every word.
"Don't let their tricks succeed!"
Pei Qianhu actually didn't care about Luo Qinghan's life or death, but Luo Qinghan and Xixi's lives were tied together.
If Luo Qinghan died, Xixi would have to follow him.
For Xixi's sake, Pei Qianhu couldn't just sit back and ignore it.
He asked, "What are you going to do?"
Xiao Xixi didn't answer and asked, "Do you know the process of implementing the life-changing technique?"
Pei Qianhu shook his head: "I don't know, Master didn't teach this before."
