Lou Qingwu carved the last stroke, and the human bone flower was finally completed under her finger. The petals of the white mandala flowers are all lifelike, and the carvings are exquisitely crafted, which is hard to find in the world.
She tilted her head and looked at the third finished product in her hand, her bright eyes were filled with a bright light, and the last step was left.
"Yi." Lou Qingwu turned her head and blinked expectantly. The standing still boy nodded in understanding, turned around, limped towards the corner of the room, and took back a white-glazed porcelain bowl. The bright red liquid in it was preserved properly, even after a day and a night. Fresh. The young man stretched out his hand and found that Lou Qingwu didn't pick it up. He raised his head, surprise flashed across his delicate face, "Master?"
Lou Qingwu looked away calmly, took the porcelain bowl, and stroked the edge of the bowl with her fingertips.
Look focused and serious.
She sighed, squinted her eyes and smiled, but the coldness in her eyes slowly condensed. If she had arrived earlier, would Yi have been able to act like a normal person? It's a pity, if it's just if, those people are still living well, and innocent people are still enduring endless suffering.
However, after waiting for so long, finally... the official start.
"Wow-"
The bright red liquid swayed on the human bone flower with a strong smell of blood.
The white mandala seemed to come alive suddenly, greedily absorbing the bright red liquid, until it bloomed into the brightest... bloody mandala.
The flower of death can only bloom for a long time if it is watered by blood, isn't it
She let go of her hand, and the porcelain bowl in her hand fell to the ground and fell to pieces. The moonlight came in from the window. She was dressed in white and spotless. Only the blood-colored mandala in her palm seemed to have sucked up all the darkness. Senran, "Yi, are you afraid?"
"...not afraid." Compared with the fear of human greed, what is so terrible about these dead things
In Linyang Town at night, everything is quiet. The moonlight shone lightly on the city tower, making the human skin painting that no one dared to touch even more terrifying. Lou Qingwu sat on the wall a few feet away, squinting at the painting she was proud of, with a lazy and cheerful expression.
She swayed her legs slightly, wearing a white dress, like an elf who broke into the mortal world, and the bloody mandala blooming beside her formed an extreme contrast with her ethereal body.
"Boom!—Boom! Boom! The sky is dry and the things are dry, be careful of the candles!"
The beating sound of Zishi sounded unexpectedly, and the light in Lou Qingwu's eyes became even more dazzling.
The gate guard folded his arms and was startled by the sound of the beating. When the sound went away, he felt even colder. He even felt a chill rushing up his back, like...
hiss! He couldn't help shivering.
Don't scare yourself!
Suddenly, there was a very slight sound above his head, "哗啦啦——哗啦啦—" It was like something was flying and agitating. Thinking of the human skin painting lying on top of his head at this moment, the gatekeeper rolled his Adam's apple a few times and swallowed his saliva. But the voice became louder and louder, he couldn't help but patted his chest to build up his courage, slowly moved to the bottom of the tower, and glanced up quickly, when he saw that the human skin painting was still hanging properly, he finally exhaled in one breath.
Returning to the original position, the gatekeeper just wanted to close his eyes and squint for a while, but suddenly heard footsteps coming, he frowned in surprise, who wants to leave the city at this time
When he opened his eyes, he did see a person, but to his surprise, that person did not walk towards him, but left.
Hey, when did this guy show up
He stood up straight and shouted, "Hey, who are you?"
The man didn't seem to hear, and continued to walk forward, wrapped in a brocade robe, holding a folding fan, very much like a scholar.
This outfit looks familiar.
The gatekeeper thought for a while, then shouted again, this man is too suspicious.
This time the man finally stopped, put away the folding fan slowly, and turned around stiffly, revealing a handsome face.
The moonlight tonight is so good, and the gatekeeper's vision is also good, so he can see that face very clearly.
Looking at it, my eyes suddenly widened, and my whole body trembled like I was sifting chaff.
"you you you… "
Pointing at that person, the gatekeeper was so frightened that three souls lost two souls, and finally when the handsome face suddenly grinned at him, he screamed: "Ah—ghost! The human skin painting has come back to life!"
Immediately, he rolled his eyes and passed out.
The man tilted his head, his bones creaked, turned around again, walked forward slowly, and quickly disappeared at the end of the Qingshi road.
Not far away, Lou Qingwu looked at this scene with a smile on her face, her expression was quiet and gentle, "Hey, it seems to be going well." She was not used to it going so smoothly.
At dawn the next day, the yamen was crowded with onlookers. They didn't know what happened, but someone was beating drums early in the morning.
"My lord!" The gatekeeper was still so frightened that he knelt there tremblingly, "Little one... I saw the human skin painting come back to life with my own eyes!"
As soon as the gatekeeper finished speaking, the surroundings fell into deathly silence for a moment.
Portraits of people and human skin are revived...
On... Are you kidding me? !
"Tch." Suddenly, a cold mocking sound came from the superior, and everyone heard the sound and looked, and found a man in armor sitting under the first seat in the lobby, with domineering eyes and a dangerous sense of oppression. The man glanced coldly at Tan Wen, the county magistrate, "Master Tan, is this how you settle the case? It has been a day and two nights since my younger brother disappeared, and you first told me that my younger brother was dead and then skinned to make it Human skin painting, where is the human skin painting now? If the human skin painting is lost, you tell me that the person has been resurrected again? Huh?!"
In the end, the cruel Sen Leng made Tan Wen sit up straight in fright, he, he didn't know, did he
God knows that he almost took off his black hat when he got the news yesterday. Three years ago, when Li Shenjiang personally sent Mr. Li to Linyang Town, he specifically warned him overtly and secretly. Mr. Li has done so many bad things for so many years. He didn't dare to speak, but... why did people die
The second young master of the Li family he flattered was also the third-rank general Li Jingsheng with a flattering smile, "Calm down the anger, the subordinate officials will definitely investigate this matter clearly! Definitely!"
Li Jingsheng got the news at the school grounds, and rushed here without taking off his armor. Even if he died and only had a human skin left, he still wanted to see it with his own eyes!
Otherwise, how can he tell his father when he goes back
The third brother died suddenly after being sent to Linyang Town for three years
He couldn't say that!
"I'll give you three days. I want to see people when I'm alive, and I want to see corpses when I die!"
"Yes, yes, yes, yes! The officer must do his best to track down the murderer!"
Li Jingsheng snorted and didn't answer. He glanced around at the people guessing his identity, but when he saw a touch of white, his eyes shrank sharply. The latter saw him looking at her, his eyebrows and eyes were still very soft, He didn't lower his head in fear, but was frank and dignified. And when he saw the woman's face clearly, Li Jingsheng frowned even tighter. There is such a stunning beauty in this small town
Pointing viciously, "Who is she?"
