Chapter 32 Trapped

Chapter 32

Du Zhengyi and Luo Qi looked at each other for a moment. Luo Qi looked stunned and speechless. Du Zhengyi ignored him, stepped into the pit with one foot, stretched out his hand and opened the body bag.

The corpse of an adult female was exposed in front of him. The corpse had not completely decomposed after the severe winter. There were many messy cuts on the corpse. Du Zheng didn't give up until he saw the steel nails inserted into the eyes of the corpse. He closed the door.

He found a woven bag and said, "The features don't look like a little girl. It may be the missing Qi Yue."

"Then what?" Guan Xinyue asked anxiously, and glanced at Luo Qi fearfully.

"I'm not sure about anything else," Du Zhengyi said.

Luo Qi finally let go of the wooden pole of the shovel, and the shovel fell on the loose soil at his feet. Du Zheng turned his head and looked at him, his expression still so calm that he couldn't understand.

"Why did you tell Guan Xinyue that story that day?" After thinking for a while, he asked. His tone was soft, sounding like hospice care.

"That's a made-up story!" Luo Qi's throat was dry and hoarse, and despair was stuck in his throat. The cheap woven bag with blue and red stripes swayed in the wind, and he couldn't turn his eyes away, staring at the bag.

A vicious bag. The cold wind of early spring whipped at his neck, poured into his collar, and blew the moist breath on his skin. It swam into his clothes like a snake spitting out letters, and wrapped around his clothes stickyly.

He was whispering thoughtfully behind his ear.

Roach swallowed and clenched his fists tightly. He thought he might be going crazy. How did he know this? Why did he come up with such a story? In the story, there was a cheap woven bag and a body wrapped in a cheap woven bag.

There were steel nails driven into the eyes of the corpse. Did anyone touch his head? Did someone put this garbage into his brain?

His heart was in confusion and his ears were ringing. Subconsciously, he looked at Du Zhengyi again. Du Zhengyi avoided his sight, just like a healthy person, out of conscience, would not be able to look directly at a person who is dying of a terminal illness.

Du Zhengyi looked worried.

"Luo Qi!" Guan Xinyue shouted in his ear, startling him again. Then he realized that Guan Xinyue had never called him in such a pleading voice. He understood what Guan Xinyue meant.

She longed for him to say something to wake them up from this nightmare.

"Luo Qi." Du Zhengyi suddenly called out, with a sharp tone and a low voice, as if he had finally made up his mind. Luo Qi turned his head back and forth between the two of them blankly. Across the body, Luo Qi saw Du Zhengyi

His lips moved, and judging from the shape of his mouth, it was a curse word. Then his long legs stepped over the hole dug by Roach, and walked to Roach's side in one step.

"Listen to me," he cursed again, and then said hurriedly, "Mahjong is right. If you take the initiative to go to the committee, you may get a little advantage."

Luo Qi listened numbly. Du Zhengyi grabbed his shoulder, looked into his eyes and said, "If the matter only concerns me, I don't care, but now the matter has been derailed. We must move quickly,

Proactive response can condense the process and report directly to His Holiness. Roach! Can you hear me?"

Luo Qi looked into Du Zhengyi's eyes and nodded. His throat was swollen and he could no longer speak.

"The situation here is very complicated. I can't leave. Can you take transportation to the nearest Pendragon track station?" Du Zhengyi asked.

Roach nodded again, and the two set off together, but now he had to return alone to the center of the magical world to report his problems. He felt like a mouse falling into a maze box, even if he was messing around

I could barely find the exit, but the exit only led to a cage.

"I'll give you a coordinate. You go find Pei Shu. He is one of the sages. Do you understand?"

This sentence gave Roach a little hope, and he nodded.

"good."

He could tell that Du Zheng was relieved, and he loosened his grip on Luo Qi, patted him on the shoulder, and then grabbed both of his shoulders, as if to cheer him up. "Zhao Zhiyan doesn't know how.

We understand there is something abnormal here, so we still have a little time. Think about it carefully, what is the idea that makes you come here to dig up corpses? "

Luo Qi looked into the depths of Du Zhengyi's pupils, just a glance, and he suddenly opened his eyes. "No--"

Guan Xinyue looked at them anxiously. She almost slipped into the corpse pit and jumped up in fright. This move distracted Du Zhengyi and Luo Qi at the same time. Luo Qi pushed Du Zhengyi away and raised his hand.

He pinched his face anxiously, "No, you don't want to check my brain anymore. My brain must have been touched by someone, I know it. What if I am a trap? Is there someone waiting for this opportunity?

Waiting for you to fall into my consciousness? They must know that you are not only courageous, but also very curious."

Du Zhengyi did not speak, but pursed his lips tightly. Now Luo Qi knew that this expression was almost equivalent to indicating that Du Zhengyi was indeed at an impasse.

At this moment, Du Zhengyi suddenly turned around and looked at the locked courtyard door. Luo Qi followed him subconsciously and soon heard a sound. Someone was fiddling with the lock on the iron door outside.

Before he had time to think anything, he heard the door lock click open, the iron door latch click open, and then the door opened with a bang, sending dust and residual snow flying in all directions.

Two figures appeared at the door, one was a monk wearing brown monk robes, and the other was a magician who was too fashionable for the time.

Zhao Zhiyan grinned as soon as he entered the door and said, "I don't know if something important happened here. I was thinking about it and worried about you. I hurriedly came over to help. The monk didn't have room to spare, so I just invited him over."

Luo Qi knew that this was due to mutual distrust between the two parties. Zhao Zhiyan was afraid that some information would be withheld, so he hurried over to take a look. He already hated Zhao Zhiyan in his heart, but now that he saw the relaxed look on his cynical and playful face, he almost felt physical disgust.

"How are you doing here?" Zhao Zhiyan asked with a smile.

"I found something." Du Zhengyi said, his expression restored to normal, "It's not convenient for the monk to see."

"Oh, it doesn't matter." Zhao Zhiyan said, "Anyway, we have to take the monk back for examination, and he won't have the chance to interact with others."

His attitude was like catching an animal in a nature reserve and now taking it back to the institute. Roach turned his head in disgust, thinking that the monk must have been coerced, so he glanced at the monk subconsciously.

Unexpectedly, the monk was standing quietly at the door, and then he just looked at Luo Qi, and immediately he looked as if he had seen a ghost, with a look of shock on his face. Luo Qi's nerves had been damaged in the process of digging the hole just now.

He was dulled by torture and had no reaction to the monk's strange behavior. He only vaguely thought for a moment that the monk must have reached the edge of collapse after being controlled by two magicians.

However, no matter how slow he is, there is a limit. When Luo Qi was stared at by the other two eyes, his instinctive fear once again raised his spirit to a sharp level. When he came back to his senses, he noticed Zhao Zhiyan and Du

There was actually a slight resemblance between the two of them in Zhengyi's expression, and both of them were filled with unbelievable surprise.

Luo Qi's heart sank, knowing that today's troubles were destined to come one after another, and they would be woven tightly into threads, eventually trapping him in layers and dragging him to hell.

Du Zhengyi seemed to be the first to return to normal, but when he looked at Luo Qi, he looked more and more confused. Zhao Zhiyan finished the whole drama of being dumbfounded, and finally said "Hey" to get angry, and slapped the monk who was shivering for some reason.

, "It turns out you haven't completely given up on your fear instinct. That's strange. Why are you afraid of him?"

The monk looked at Luo Qi blankly and shook his head tremblingly, as if he had lost the ability to speak.

Everyone in the yard looked solemn, except Zhao Zhiyan, who was very relaxed and relieved, as if all the burdens on his mind had been thrown away. "When things have reached this point, it is really out of my control. What did you find out?" He had already

He saw the hole behind Du Zhengyi, "Hey? Who dug a hole here? Luo Qi?"

Du Zhengyi stared at him, his face suddenly turned very ugly, and ominous thoughts flashed through Luo Qi's mind again. He heard Du Zhengyi ask sharply, "Have you informed the committee?"

Zhao Zhiyan shrugged, "Shouldn't I? I have to report to my superior?"

"What did you report?" Roach asked in a low voice.

"Report that I have found the great monk." Zhao Zhiyan said matter-of-factly, "What is left is to see how the mind mage pries his mouth open. That is beyond my ability. I can get off work.

Already."

After saying that, he smiled at Roach and said, "It seems like I have to take you back now. The Mind Mage definitely needs to check why the great monk reacted abnormally when he saw you."

"Then I will also report this matter to my superiors." Du Zhengyi said coldly, "I'm afraid ordinary telepathy mages can't check Luo Qi's thoughts."

"Oh -" Zhao Zhiyan said arrogantly, looking at Du Zhengyi and laughing again, "That's none of my business."

Du Zhengyi frowned. Zhao Zhiyan was very jealous of him, but his face was still smiling, but his body was tense, always on guard against Du Zhengyi. The harmonious alliance that had just been suppressed and barely established by relying on strength was about to disappear.

Roach thought he had learned a lesson, but he knew immediately that it didn't matter.

"They will be here soon." Zhao Zhiyan said with a smile, his tone was kind, but he was also reminding them.

Roach's heart beat violently, his intraocular pressure increased, and he had a terrible headache. Amidst the huge tension, the things that had happened in the past few days were quickly spinning in his mind. I don't know if it was the result of thinking or intuition, but he suddenly knew

Who is coming soon?

A familiar wave of energy flickered in the courtyard, and Luo Qi knew that someone had traveled through space and came here. He suddenly turned his head to look at Du Zhengyi, and when the figure condensed into shape, he said, "Li Xu."

He didn't know if Du Zhengyi heard what he was saying clearly, but three figures in long-sleeved robes appeared, three middle-aged mages, the leaders of whom they all knew and had just met.

"First-level executive mage, Li Xu." The well-dressed mage with a leisurely demeanor said to everyone, with a solemnity that could not be resisted, "executive committee official business."

The handover happened almost instantly. Luo Qi only had time to shout "Guan Xinyue", but he was not calling the girl. He was looking into Du Zhengyi's eyes. He knew that Du Zhengyi would understand him.
