Chapter 631: The Key
The round table in the center of the room was filled with a variety of dishes, and two figures sat opposite each other, silent.
The man in the armor didn't say a word, and looked directly at Gu Ju, like a sculpture that couldn't speak.
Their chopsticks reached into a plate at the same time, caught the same salted egg, and split it in half right in the middle.
Gu Juan glanced at him deeply, and put down the chopsticks again, "I finally came back from that messy place to get a drink and eat, and you followed you here, what's the matter, it's not comfortable to stay in that wilderness, so you want to come to me to eat and drink, and rub the warmth?"
The other side didn't say a word, didn't move, just stared at him like that.
"Brother, are you happy?"
After a moment of silence, Gu Juan asked again, waited for a few breaths and didn't answer, then took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "My surname is Fu, my surname is Gu." ”
The other side still didn't say a word, and the outstretched chopsticks were stuck on the half of the salted egg, and they also didn't move.
"If you don't cooperate like this, it will only make me feel like a fool. ”
The smile on Gu Juan's face narrowed a little, and then a little turquoise light suddenly appeared, the cold light of the axe shadow suddenly retracted, and the double-edged axe flashed through the void, and flew back into his hand silently.
Little by little, the man in the armor dissipated into ashes, and soon disappeared into the guest room of the inn, leaving no trace.
But Gu Juan didn't have too much relaxed expression on his face, but looked a little confused and contemplative.
With a slash from the axe, he can clarify one thing, and then there is a question that he can't solve.
What is clear is that the guy who was just hacked to death belongs to the category of alien creatures circled by the jungler knife, which can provide him with experience and health bonuses, although both are only a small amount, but they do increase.
The incomprehensible problem is that at the moment when he slashed this guy to death, he seemed to sense some kind of strange aura, just like the feeling of standing outside the door and looking inward when he faced the Gate of the Nine Shadows, but when he tasted it, it was only similar, not exactly the same.
So, is there any connection between this thing and the Gate of the Nine Shadows?
If there is, then the problem is simple, he may have felt a little distorted just now, or it may be that the Nine Shadows Gate has undergone new changes in the recent past, and he has not really known about it.
However, if it has no connection to the Nine Hells Gate, the problem is complicated.
Just because he may be wrong about the feeling unique to the Gate of the Nine Shades, but there will definitely be no situation where he sees nothing as being, then the biggest question arises, is there another kind of door other than the Gate of the Nine Shadows between heaven and earth?
Gu Juan thought for a long time, took the freshly poured wine handed over to him and took a sip, and then thought about it endlessly.
If there really were any other gates other than the Nine Shades Gate, such incidents could be grouped together and recorded as the biggest anecdotal incident.
If you name it, let's call it the "Gate Incident".
Judging from the experience of his previous life, these three words themselves have a special magic, which can make people unconsciously want to dig into the bottom of the matter and find the truth behind it.
Gu Juan wanted to laugh a little, so he picked up the wine bowl in his hand again, but when he brought it to his mouth, he paused suddenly, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, and then slowly turned his head to look to the side.
Just behind him, I don't know when stood a young woman in a pink dress and a pink skirt, holding the jar of soju in her hand, her flower-like face was smiling, and she was also looking down at him.
"I remember that I didn't receive the small card, let alone call people...... So how the hell did you get in?"
Call......
Gu Juan sighed lowly, and a faint blue fire quietly appeared on the woman in the pink skirt, and then quickly enveloped her whole person.
Under the scorching fire of the gods, she slowly melted from head to toe like wax oil, until finally she left only a rusty key on the ground.
Without heeding the judge's instructions, the ugly dog flew over from the head of the bed, and studied it for a long time near the place, and seemed to be a little surprised to brush out a line of red letters in the void, "Master, this is really a key, and these rusty stains on it seem to be patina." ”
"Is it really a key?"
Gu Juan also showed a puzzled expression, and did not reach out to pick it up, but threw out the double-edged axe with a loud bang, which happened to be pressed against the key that was full of rust.
After a dozen breaths, he picked up the axe again, clicked down on the position, and cut off a small handle at the end of the key, splitting it into two parts.
"So, it's really a rusty brass key?"
"But I can't figure it out anyway, which door is this, which lock key, just now the little lady in the pink dress and pink skirt ran over with all her might, and even lost her life here, and she wants to send this key to my eyes, what does she want to do, and what is her purpose?"
Xiang Wei drilled the lid of the pot out of the mirror, "Father, a military town general appeared in the house just now, followed by the shameless woman in pink, but it is very similar to the daughter of a rich merchant and her man that Liu Qianhu said in the daytime. ”
"My son Radar has also learned to think about problems, congratulations, congratulations, so, tell my dad again, what is she doing with this key?"
"This ......" Xiang Wei shook his head a little hesitantly, "I really don't know, maybe this key corresponds to somewhere in that manor outside the city?"
Gu Juan was silent, and after staring at the two keys on the floor for a long time, he threw the axe on top of it again and covered it firmly.
After doing all this, he lost the interest of continuing to eat and drink, and directly took off his coat and went to bed, and remembered to give an order to the ugly dog and Xiang Wei, "You two are just here to watch it, tell me in time if anything changes." ”
"Brother Bad Dog......"
"Uncle!"
"But just now my father said that I want our brothers to watch it here, and if there is any situation, tell my father as soon as possible, do you understand, it's brothers. ”
The ugly dog brushed out line after line of big characters in the void very seriously, trying to reverse Xiang Wei's incorrect point of view, but he didn't expect Xiang Wei to hold on to the sentence Gu Ju just said, which made it quite angry, but there was nowhere to release the grievance.
A book and a mirror argued for a long time above the double-edged axe, until they discovered at the same time, and there seemed to be a faint light emitting from under the axe, and then they were silenced at the same time, and they were highly focused on observing the changes in the two keys.
