Chapter 1,073 Weird Human Skin

 "Leave the city."

"Out of town?"

"Yeah." Li Luo smiled softly and glanced at Taishu Gu.

Taishu Gu was startled, smiled casually, nodded, and said: "Okay, let's leave the city."

The two of them quietly left the Yuanyuan Inn one after another. Taishu Gu didn't ask any more questions, and Li Luo didn't explain much. They avoided the patrolling army officers in the city and arrived in front of the north gate of the city in a short time.

The lights inside and outside the city gate were brightly lit, illuminating a radius of dozens of feet like daylight. The soldiers in the Dingbei military camp were standing ready to prevent the invading enemies from Caohai from attacking at night.

At this time, there were almost no pedestrians on the street. Occasionally, there were one or two people in the city who were in a hurry and kept their heads down, unwilling to stay in the night for a moment longer.

Li Luo and Taishu Gu stood in a dark place with backlight in front of the city gate. Li Luo looked at the soldiers guarding in the distance and was silent.

Taishu Gu glanced at Li Luo, who was silent beside him, and had a strange feeling in his heart. This calm and somewhat peaceful handsome man seemed to be hiding something in his heart. Compared with the elite soldiers and generals of Meng Jue Caohai outside the city, Taishu Gu glanced at Li Luo who was silent beside him.

It also makes people feel even more depressed.

"You're here." Li Luo said suddenly.

Taishu Gu was stunned for a moment. Before he could recover, he heard a cold voice not far behind him: "Here we come."

Taishu Gu's scalp went numb and he took a breath of cold air. He didn't even notice when this person came behind him. Fortunately, he was someone Li Luo knew well. If it were a killer assassin, the consequences would be disastrous.

Following the voice, a man in black walked out of the darkness, with a slender figure. With his voice, Taishu Gu could tell it was a woman, but he was wearing a black cloth mask on his head, so he didn't know who it was.

Taishu Gu's heart moved, he cupped his fists and saluted, and asked harmoniously: "But Miss Li?"

This kind of elusive skill, without any trace of a stranger, first came to Taishu Gu's mind to think of the famous master of Mu Tianlang, Li Luo's sworn sister Li Yuanxi.

It is said that this woman is good at assassination and was once a member of the extinct Mu Kuo death guard. If it was her, it would be reasonable for her to be able to approach Taishu Gu so quietly.

The woman snorted coldly and did not respond. Li Luo smiled lightly and said, "She's not my sworn sister."

Uncle Tai made a sound, and couldn't help but look at the woman in black again. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't expect that there were so many strange people under Li Luo's command. In addition to those who were famous, there were probably others in Mu Tianlang's army.

There are many top masters hidden there who are rarely known to the public, and it is indeed unfathomable.

The person who came was Gusu Xiaoniang, the only Chinese army cavalry expert beside Li Luo at the moment. However, Li Luo did not tell Gusu Xiaoniang’s name to Taishu Gu, nor did he tell Gusu Xiaoniang Taishu Gu’s name. He said calmly.

: "Let's go."

Miss Gusu hummed and retreated into the night. She really looked like a ghost, which made Taishu Gu feel chills in his vest just watching.

Li Luo nodded to Taishu Gu and followed him, but the direction was opposite the city gate. Taishu Gu was suspicious, but he could only follow.

After a while, Taishu Gu and Li landed in the backyard of a private house. This was a common yard in Jianbei City. It was neatly kept and there were lights flickering in the front yard. It looked like someone lived here.

But as soon as Taishu Gu stepped into this courtyard, he felt a strange atmosphere lingering here.

The lights in the front yard swayed from time to time, but except for this swaying light, the whole yard seemed to be lifeless, not even a mouse. This flickering candlelight made the yard look a bit sinister and ghostly.

gas.

Before Taishu Gu could take a breath, Miss Gusu waved at the door of a side room. Li Luo raised his eyebrows and whispered: "Over there." After saying this, he greeted Taishu Gu and walked over.

Entering the house, it was a side room where food was stored. There were no lights in the house, and you couldn't see your fingers.

In addition to Miss Gusu's vague and non-existent breath, there should be another person in the room, whose slight breathing could be heard, but did not speak and stood quietly in the corner.

After Li fell into the house, he waited for a few breaths, and then said calmly: "Everyone is here."

A shadow in the dark rustled, probably giving Li Luo a fist salute. After a while, a soft creaking sound was heard, and a dim yellow light came out from the dark ground. A dark passage appeared in front of the three people, and there was a faint light inside.

There was some light, but not very bright, which made people lower their breathing unconsciously.

"Let's go." Li Luo said in a deep voice, jumping down the secret passage first.

Gusu Xiaoniang waited for Taishu Gu to enter the secret passage, and then she stepped out of the secret passage for the last time. Her head shook slightly, and the secret passage door had been closed by the people in the house.

The secret passage was sloping downwards and was extremely narrow. In some places, one had to turn sideways to squeeze through. Fortunately, there was no mechanism to plot against him, so Li Luo kept walking and led the way.

After turning a few corners, the firelight in the dark passage became much brighter, and the three of them came to an empty space with a little room for maneuver.

Taishu Gu closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Even if he was used to seeing monsters and demons in the world, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. Even Miss Gusu who was following behind him moved slightly away half a foot, and gently put his hand into his arms.

, touched the centipede whip.

This empty space is not big, and there are at most five or six people standing there. It should be the resting place for the craftsmen who dug this secret passage.

If that's the case, forget it. What really makes Taishu Gu and Gusu Xiaoniang eclipse is that there is a person tightly attached to the wall of the secret passage. It's a bit reluctant to say it's a human. More appropriately, it should be a piece of human skin. It's almost

It's stuck to the wall like this. If it weren't for the outstretched hand holding a wind lantern, it would be exactly the same as those rumored paintings.

This human-skinned face wears a mask, and the year, month and hour are engraved on the lower part of the left cheek. The color is as red as blood, but the rest of the mask is pale, which is particularly clear and dazzling.

Li Luo showed no fear, but was slightly surprised and nodded lightly.

Human Skin didn't say anything. He only handed over the wind lantern in his hand and whispered: "Two hundred and seventy-three feet." The voice was not eerie and scary, but had a crisp and sweet sound, but this crisp and sweet sound was a bit out of place.

Li Luo responded, took the lantern, glanced at the ghostly human skin, and said harmoniously: "Thank you very much."

Renpi hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, and walked down the wall, as if he was really walking down the wall. Taishu Gu and Gusu Xiaoniang couldn't help but groan. Taishu Gu secretly cursed, this is really evil.
