Chapter 17 Three Fingers Man

"I'll help you? When did I help you, who are you? How do you know there is a secret lattice under the coffin?" I became more and more confused and asked him repeatedly.

The man in a black robe of gold thread slowly turned around.

When I saw his face, I was startled. He had a demon-like mask on his face, which was painted red all over, making it look extremely terrifying under the reflection of the moonlight.

After turning around, he stared at me for a long time before slowly saying, "You don't need to know so much. You and I are all people in the game. If it weren't for myself, I wouldn't have helped you. It's true that helping you is not my intention..."

I looked at him with a confused look on my face and asked what he meant?

"You don't need to understand what it means. I'm here to tell you that the things in the coffin should be able to save your life." The man in the black robe said, and the eyes on the demon mask stared at my face.

Before I could react, he raised his hand and gently pressed it on the acne on my forehead.

In an instant, a hot stinging pain came from the forehead.

The man in black robe immediately took back his hand and said with a hint of surprise, "How could it be her?"

I asked him what he was talking about.

He didn't answer me now. His cold hands grabbed me tightly. A cold breath filled my body directly, causing me to get goosebumps.

Only then did I notice that one hand had only three fingers.

"Remember, when you must obtain the objects in the coffin tomorrow, you must not be discovered by others. Be careful of the people around you." After saying that, the man in black seemed a little anxious and went straight to the path on one side, entered the back mountain, and disappeared directly into the night.

At this moment, my body was as if I had been imposed on a fixed body technique and I could not move at all.

"Yi Chuan, are you okay? Why can't you finish urinating?"

Not long after, Zhang Shanfeng's words from behind me made me tremble all over and my body regained control.

Seeing that I didn't answer, Zhang Shanfeng shouted a few more anxiously.

After my body completely recovered from control, I replied and turned back.

"What's wrong with you just now? I thought you were evil?" Zhang Shanfeng stood at the gate of the yard and said anxiously to me.

I smiled bitterly, weighed it for a while, and decided to tell the matter with Zhang Shanfeng.

Although the sloppy old man who told fortunes at the time also reminded me to be careful about the people around me, now this man in black robe also reminded me to be careful about the people around me.

However, Zhang Shanfeng grew up together since childhood and is definitely a trustworthy person. If I want to defend people around me, I think only Luo Sangsang and the new Chen Yuanyuan are the only ones. However, Luo Sangsang is just an ordinary person, and after thinking about it, I can only be wary of Chen Yuanyuan.

If you want to avoid others tomorrow and take the objects in the coffin, you still need Zhang Shanfeng's help.

After hearing this, Zhang Shanfeng frowned and asked me, "Don't you know who the other party is? What if someone digs a hole and is waiting for you to jump?"

After hearing what he said, I was indeed a little hesitant. After all, I had never known him as the man in black robe just now. I didn’t even know that he was a human or a ghost. If there was a trap in the coffin, I had no way to deal with it.

Zhang Shanfeng thought for a while and told me that he would open the coffin tomorrow to get the things in the coffin. If there was a fraud inside, Chen Yuanyuan and I could help.

I shook my head, didn’t this let him be a guinea pig?

"Yi Chuan, now is not the time to be pretentious. First of all, that person may not really harm you. Take a step back and say that there may be fraud in the coffin, but this may also be targeted at you, and it may not harm me. It's getting late, so you can take a nap for me for a while." Zhang Shanfeng fell asleep on the side after saying that.

Actually, he was right. My intuition also told me that although the man in black robe is not necessarily a good person, what he said is to help me is to help him. This sentence does not seem to be fake.

The sun in the mountains rose a little later, until after seven o'clock, and the genius was dawn.

Because these days, even after sunrise, no one came out to play in Luoxiaba.

Just as I was standing in the yard and stretching my body, Zhuang Debiao walked over in a hurry.

Looking at him with a tired look, it was obvious that he didn't sleep well last night.

"My little master...you are..." Zhuang Debiao was obviously frightened by my ugly face.

I waved my hand and said it was okay, and asked him why he was so anxious to come over?

Zhuang Debiao looked at me a few times and asked me if I could speak with one step.

I nodded, walked a few steps towards the gate of the yard, and asked him what he had to say.

"Actually... Actually, I know who the person who made this coffin was." Zhuang Debiao said to me with a ugly face.

"Is it Liu Qian?" I asked back before he could speak.

Zhuang Debiao showed a look of surprise and asked me how I knew it?

I didn't answer and signaled him to continue.

Zhuang Debiao said to me with a ugly face that if he told me, he would definitely keep his safety.

I smiled bitterly and said to him, I may not be able to protect myself in Luoxiaba now, let alone protect others' safety.

But he explained the pros and cons after he explained it.

If he doesn't say anything, I really can't help.

In fact, if I hadn't wanted to find my master, I would have been oiled off. What I think now is to go to the back mountain to find my master. If I didn't find him, I would quickly leave this place of right and wrong.

Although Ran Qing told me that the master had left, I think this may be a lie she wanted me to leave here as soon as possible and made up.

When Zhuang Debiao heard my answer, he was silent for a long time before he started talking to me. He only realized that Liu Qian was not crazy some time ago.

Just a few days ago, the missing Liu Qian suddenly appeared at his home and told Zhuang Debiao that he had a way to solve the Five Immortal Rebellion.

At first, Zhuang Debiao just thought Liu Qian was talking crazy and didn't care.

However, Liu Qian directly used a magic trick, saying that he directly invited his grandfather Liu Daqian's soul to his body.

At first, Zhuang Debiao thought Liu Qian was fooling him, but Liu Qian directly said a lot of things that only they knew in Liu Daqian's tone.

Zhuang Debiao then believed it. Liu Daqian told Zhuang Debiao that their family died to protect the people of Luoxiaba. They thought they could keep Luoxiaba safe for a hundred years, but they never expected that the Five Immortals Rebellion completely disrupted their layout.

Liu Daqian told Zhuang Debiao that if he wanted to save the Luoxiaba people, he would listen to Liu Qian.

After hearing Liu Qian's words, Zhuang Debiao first found a few people he could trust, dug out the animals that had originally been buried in the back mountain by my master, and then sent them to Liu Qian's house.

Zhuang Debiao didn't know what Liu Qian wanted to use these corpses to do, and he thought it was a way to exorcise evil spirits.

Liu Qian did not explain to Zhuang Debiao, but just told Zhuang Debiao that they must keep it confidential and that they could not find him during this period.

However, a few people who helped Liu Qian dig animal corpses died suddenly in a row.

Zhuang Debiao was afraid that he would die next, so he had no choice but to go to Liu Qian's house to find him.

Unexpectedly, after Zhuang Debiao entered the yard of Liu Qian's house, he was wandering around the yard for several hours as if he had encountered a ghost shattering a wall. People in the village kept seeing him spinning back and forth in the yard of Liu Qian's house and came over to call him, and he woke up.

This scared Zhuang Debiao. That night, Liu Qian came to find him again. Liu Qian told Zhuang Debiao that it was because of him that he almost let all his previous efforts go to waste. If what he did failed, the entire Luoxiaba people would be buried with him. And he threatened Zhuang Debiao to do whatever he wanted, and the next person to die was him.

This scared Zhuang Debiao. Although he thought about it the more wrong the matter was, he later called the police and wanted to solve the problem with the help of the police. However, after the police came here, he disappeared the next day.

He didn't know if this had anything to do with Liu Qian, but he didn't dare to do anything randomly anymore.

Until we appeared and saw my ability, he placed his hope on us. He originally wanted me to find my master and said it after he found me.

He never expected that before we could go to the back mountain, he discovered the "secret" of Liu Qian's family before we could go to the back mountain.

"Then you didn't open the door when I came to find you last night. Did Liu Qian come to find you?" I asked Zhuang Debiao.

Zhuang Debiao nodded with an ugly face and said, "He threatened me and could not tell you anything, and asked me to find a way to send you away as soon as possible."

I was confused for a moment.

Because the breath of the man in black robe last night was exactly the same as that felt at Zhuang Debiao's house.

If the person in Zhuang Debiao's family was Liu Qian, then the person last night was also Liu Qian?

After thinking about it, I denied my own idea. After all, if it weren't for that person's reminder, the fierce coffin would be refined in a few days. If that person was Liu Qian, would he have eaten enough to remind me so that I could destroy his good deeds?

"Then why don't you believe that Liu Qian now, but I believe in an outsider." I asked at him with a frown.

Zhuang Debiao glanced at me and then said, "I also felt something was wrong with that Liu Qian. Although his grandfather was a good person, the things Liu Qian did now were not like things that a good person did at all."

"Then does my master know about Liu Qian?" I asked Zhuang Debiao.

Zhuang Debiao shook his head and said, "Your master rarely stays in the village. After resting, he will drill into the mountain behind him. So he doesn't know much about the things in the village."

I nodded thoughtfully, and then said to Zhuang Debiao, "By the way, village chief. How many fingers do Liu Qian have?"

Zhuang Debiao looked at me strangely and replied, "Eight fingers."
