I kill the gods in the infinite script

Chapter 31 Puppet Town (14)
Hua Rong didn't want to hear Shu Li's answer, so she turned around and mentioned the list.

"Since the list started half a year ago, twelve pieces have been sold one after another. And the women who bought these jewelry died in the shortest three months and the longest four months."

Hua Rong's eyes were full of unbearability: "The markings written on it are all divine punishments without exception."

Shu Li: "The residents of the small town rely on making wishes to survive, and they have long been accustomed to sharing divine punishment equally, so making wishes is nothing to them."

"Yes. But this was made in the wrong month. Everyone is responsible for their own divine punishment, so..."

Hua Rong stopped talking in the middle of her words.

She knelt down and waved to Shu Li: "Come, what is this?"

Under the weak candlelight, a piece of broken yellow paper was revealed.

"I thought I was a god, but I am an evil sycophant. Now I am passing on the art of checks and balances, hoping that future generations will destroy it."

"The sinner Feng Yue's last note..."

Shu Li and Shu Li looked at each other: "Feng Yue, could it be that you are the ancestor of Cuo Yue?"

"It's not impossible." Hua Rong murmured: "But in this way, some lies will be self-defeating."

"This puppet is not a treasure. Those who are eager to get something for nothing will face the so-called divine punishment. It is not an exaggeration to call it evil."

Shu Li nodded, and then said: "Two possibilities: The first is that Fengyue's descendants took the puppets and defected to the Emperor Ji, and then saved the world."

"The second is that what General Qi said is false. Written records are not incapable of deceiving people." Huarong added softly.

"But I finally found a way to open that door."

Huarong shook the paper in her hand and called the others.

On the way back, a few people briefly talked about the complicated clues at present, and came up with a relatively clear idea.

Regardless of the clues that have not been found, based on the known motives and timelines of several people, Lin Meiren and Huarong are less likely to be suspected.

Shu Li's methods are the same as Lin Meiren's, but she has a basement with deep secrets.

Cuoyue did not keep track of the timeline after the failure. He Jian claimed that he drowned and did not take action again, while Bai Shu claimed that he could not do it.

Shu Li listened, but she didn't feel much relaxed.

At present, the most suspicious person is Bai Shu, who is carrying the murder weapon, but he also has many suspicions.

Shuli maintained a semblance of normalcy until they returned to the town.

The streets of the small town where no residents could be seen were as bright as daylight, and the white tree was tied to the signboard of the Yunfan Hotel in an awkward manner.

Everyone's pupils shrank suddenly, and they all saw the worst guesses in each other's eyes.

Shu Li nodded to a few people and quietly approached the door of the hotel.

The tables and chairs on the first floor have been moved to the edge, but there are only a few lights illuminating it, but it doesn't look like there is anyone there.

Shu Li waved her hand behind her, and several people found a ladder and lowered the white tree.

During this process, Bai Shu may have touched some kind of injury, and he woke up with a groan.

"What happened? Didn't I ask you to hide yourself?" Huarong asked with a frown.

Bai Shu coughed continuously, and after a moment he weakly explained the cause and effect.

After being separated from everyone, Hua Rong accompanied him to search the town for a long time.Although I didn't like him, I still told him a lot of things he needed to pay attention to to ensure safety.

When they were gathering in the evening, Hua Rong told him that it was not safe at night, so he should hide alone and have a good night's rest.

Bai Shu originally hid in the guest room on the second floor of the hotel, thinking it would be safer.

Unexpectedly, while he was half asleep, someone kept pushing him, telling him to run quickly.

Bai Shu got out of bed in confusion. There was no one in the room. He was frightened and woke up for most of the time.Even if he didn't hear any more sounds, Bai Shu didn't have the guts to lie down anymore.

He originally wanted to leave the hotel, but when he went downstairs, he saw two small town residents running up from the basement in a panic.

Bai Shu didn't want to go down to the basement alone, so he followed the two people quietly.

The two people looked very panicked and trotted all the way out of the town.

Seeing that it was getting darker and more remote as they walked, Bai Shu was about to turn around and go back when the two people stopped.

Bai Shu hid behind the tree and saw with his own eyes that they broke off his fingers and pulled out one piece of wood after another.

Bai Shu said with lingering fear: "I vaguely heard them saying that the speed this time was too slow, when could all the bones be replaced, and so on, and then someone knocked him down with a sap."

He touched his still aching head and asked again, "How are you doing there?"

"We found a way to open the door." Huarong said, roughly speaking, and then she looked at the other people: Go in now? "

She intentionally skipped the story about Cuoyue and the two forcing the NPC to confess. Bai Shu was still a little puzzled: "Why don't you take a break?"

The main question in this sentence is Hua Rong. After all, she is the one who has not stopped since morning.

However, she really couldn't rest now.

They went down to the basement together and asked Cuo Yue to press the decorations on the door in the order recorded on the yellow paper.

When the door was opened, Shuli's heart felt strange.

The feeling at that moment is difficult to describe. It was like a biting cold wind coming towards my face, or like a sharp blade covered with ice and snow passing between my eyelashes.

The room was not very big inside, and the square room even seemed crowded after all six people entered.

They had no time to take care of this, and all their eyes fell on the "person" who was tied up in the air.

Yes, they call it "people".

The "man's" skin was like cold white snow, his sword-shaped eyebrows almost reached his temples, and his narrow eyes made him look even more indifferent.

As if he heard, or smelled, someone coming, he slowly opened his eyes.

Those were the only puppet features left on him, a pair of wooden pupils.

The dull and dull pupils did not diminish any of his handsomeness, but instead added to his evil demeanor.

"Long time no see..." The words he spoke were in the same tone, extremely dull.

Everyone looked in the direction where his eyes were staring, and it was Shu Li who was standing at the edge.

"Are you saying that I trapped you here?"

"No, why do you think so?" The puppet began to move his joints.

Everyone was on alert, and Cuo Yue clutched the yellow paper tightly, using the corner of her eyes to see how the door was closing.

"I was imprisoned by that human voluntarily." The puppet said in the same tone as before: "General Qi's descendants are greedy, and I have long since stopped wishing to fulfill their wishes."

The puppet frowned, with an expression on his face that sounded like disgust: "Their souls reek of stench."

It's just that the voice that always stays in the same tone is a bit... stiff...

"Who is that human being?" Shu Li asked.

The puppet hanging in mid-air suddenly curled up the corners of his mouth, and the chain binding his hands and waist suddenly broke, and he had fallen in front of Shu Li.

The tepid hands suddenly tightened, and Shuli was gripped around the neck and couldn't breathe for a moment.
