The moon was dark and the wind was high. A crow with bright red eyes crossed the sky and fell into the magician's hand with flapping wings.
A piece of paper was tied to the crow's claw. The magician took off the paper and let the crow go.
On the note was a line of words: "the forest of hidden grievances, the cave of hidden corpses".
"Why are we having a party here this time? What's Michelle thinking?" After reading the typesetting, the magician frowned and handed the note to angel.
Angel arrived at the magician's stronghold at 8 p.m. Because the magician is his guide, if you want to go to the extraordinary party, you must get together with the magician first.
But what he didn't expect was that the note from the party place didn't arrive until near the early morning.
"Who's Michelle? Is it her real name?" Angel took the note and glanced at the location above. He was completely confused about the location described above.
"I don't know if it's my real name." The magician explained, "he is the leader of this party. Every extraordinary party has a leader. This time it's his turn."
Angel frowned and wondered, "isn't it afraid that someone will set a trap to ambush such a rotation system?"
The magician shook his head: "it's impossible to set traps. For us, communication is the only way to promote strength."
Angel wanted to ask, aren't you afraid of murder and robbery? But considering the wealth of these people, it is estimated that there is no place worth looting. The only place they can make good use of is probably to live well. Only alive can we communicate, and communication can grow.
"Let's go. If I hadn't introduced you today, I wouldn't want to go if I saw this place." The magician complained and took the lead.
"What's wrong with this place?" Asked angel.
The magician shook his head: "it's no problem. It's just a legend that it's haunted. I've been there before. It's not strange, but it's too dark and smells bad."
Angel pondered, "the name of hiding corpse cave seems a little inappropriate?"
"What's more, it's just a big corpse cave! The forest of grievances is in the Baizhan mountains. The corpse cave is actually the place where the forest keeper deals with the corpses. For poachers or people killed by wild animals, the forest keeper will throw their corpses into this cave, and there are countless corpses over the years." The magician complained all over his face.
Angel remembered that the magician mentioned their parties, most of which were champagne and delicious food. Occasionally there are some low-key ones. They are also looking for the first-class castle. It is also the first time to go to a corpse hiding cave party. No wonder he looks disgusted.
Angel also felt that the party seemed a little different. Why did he choose the dead man's cave for a good exchange party?
When they left the city, they began to speed up their journey and ran all the way towards the mountains and forests.
The more he ran, the more he felt familiar... Wasn't this the road he had walked when he left from the mountains?
When he reached the forest of resentment, a faint light flashed through angel's eyes.
This forest is just a section of forest that angel passed after he came out of the forest keeper's cabin. When he passed by here, he had doubts about it.
Because of this forest, the plants are too lush and dense, the trees are tall and luxuriant, and the branches and leaves cover all the sunshine. Even at noon, walking here is dark as if it were night. But these are not enough to make angel take it to heart. The reason why he is impressed here is also because there is a faint resentment here.
At that time, he also guessed whether there were many people buried underground... Now it seems that his guess is not wrong, but not underground, but hiding corpses.
"Here we are. This is the hiding cave." The magician pointed to a dark cave.
The underground cave is located in the middle of several lush trees, with an opening of about five or six meters. It is dark and can't see the bottom. Before Angel approached, he could smell a strong smell of decay.
"The plants here can be so prosperous, but also thanks to this hole." The magician looked at the cave with disgust on his face. The strong stench made him really don't want to step into it.
However, thinking that angel would provide a kind of knowledge when he joined the extraordinary party, he still pinched his nose and plunged into the underground hole.
Angel jumped with him. However, after jumping into the cave, he secretly asked Toby to guard. He felt a little hypocritical about the magician's complaint when he received the note. When he really came to the corpse hiding cave, he saw the environment here and felt the filth around him, and then he understood why magicians were angry... It is really a problem for wizards to choose such an environment.
"Damn Michelle, later I must let him know how wrong it is to choose this place for a party!" After the magician landed, he scolded angrily and prepared to ignite the fold.
"Wait, don't light the fire." Angel smelled a strong pungent smell in the air, including putrefaction and gas.
Angel thought and used the art of light.
With the illumination of Illuminati, the surrounding situation became clear in an instant.
There were corpses all around, some of them had turned into white bones, and some were still rotting. The magician found that he was surrounded by a half rotting corpse, maggots were crawling on the corpse, and the ground was full of black shell insects carrying carrion.
The magician kicked the body's head away: "in this place, who still has the appetite to eat at tonight's party? Isn't Michelle disgusting our attention?"
Angel glanced at the magician silently: are you still thinking of eating?
"Is the place of the party inside?" Under the light of Illuminati, angel saw a winding passage in the underground cave. The dark at the end of the passage is like a huge mouth for others, emitting a strong stench.
"It should be." The magician walked towards the channel step by step, and angel lowered his hat, lowered his sense of existence and followed the magician.
"Is this light?" As the magician walked, he looked at angel with envy: "it's good. You can play more tricks than me."
Angel smiled and didn't answer.
The magician originally wanted to blackmail the situation to see if he could get some information about the Illuminati, but Angel didn't even answer, so he had to keep silent.
Such a cold atmosphere lasted until the end of the passage.
At the end is a gate, which has been opened. You can see that there are many people sitting outside the inner round table, and only one position is still empty.
Everyone at the table looked at the magician with a smile.
"Magician, you're so slow. You're alone." The brown haired youth sitting in the main seat greeted.
The magician angrily scolded the young man: "Michelle, what the hell are you doing? Why did you choose to have a party here?"
Michelle, a young man with brown hair, said with a smile, "every time it's a luxury banquet. This time it's different. Are you surprised or surprised?"
"Unexpected fart." The magician spat.
"You're a good boy. I haven't seen you for half a year. I can even shine." Michelle didn't care about being scolded. She left her seat and came out. She grabbed the magician's arm and dragged it into the door.
"Lightness is..." the magician looked back and wanted to introduce angel. He found that there was no one behind him, and the lightness disappeared.
Just then, Michelle had dragged him into the room. When the magician entered the house, he still wanted to get rid of Michelle's hand and was ready to look back to see where angel had gone, but Michelle stopped him before he went out.
Michelle had a strange smile on her mouth: "come, don't go."
This sentence, combined with Michelle's expression, raised a trace of vigilance in the magician's heart. He looked around at the others in the room. Everyone was smiling at him, but both men and women had a stiff expression like a puppet.
"You... What's the matter? Vinnie? Captain? Long ears? Pluto?" The magician shouted one by one, but no one responded. Until he saw a man wearing a wide brimmed hat, he finally got a response: "shadow?"
The man took off his hat, smiled and waved to the magician, "ah, ah, ah, it's been a long time."
"Shadow? What's going on?" The magician was afraid. He had felt something wrong and stepped back step by step.
But when he stepped back, Michelle stopped him. But at this time, Michelle's expression became as dull as others, just with a faint smile at the corners of her mouth.
"What's going on? Party? Take your seat. I'll tell you something useful today." The shadow pointed to the only empty seat and said to the magician.
The magician refused gingerly: "no, I, I have something to go back first."
However, before the magician turned around, the door behind him slammed shut. The heavy copper gate made a violent noise and set off dust waves on the ground.
The magician ran to the door and tried to open it. But I was helpless to find that the door had been locked and could not be opened without a key.
"What are you doing? Robbing? I have nothing on me!" The magician remembered that not long ago, the mask asked him, aren't you afraid of being ambushed by people setting traps? He also vowed that no one would do so, but the newspaper will come soon.
By the way, isn't there a mask when the magician's eyes shine? Where's the mask? Did he find something wrong in advance, so he hid away?
Think of this possibility. The magician shouted: "fake..." save me!
But before the words were shouted out, the magician saw a small dark shadow falling from the sky and plundering in front of him. When the magician was about to say something, he saw the little dark shadow gently stretch out his hand, pull out a struggling shadow from the magician's body and put it into the gray cloth bag
Seeing the shadow in his hand, the little dark shadow sent out a burst of strange laughter, jumped back to the shadow's shoulder, and then handed the small gray cloth bag to the shadow.
The shadow touched the head of the little black shadow, as if it were praising.
"What's that?" The magician felt weak for a while, but he didn't faint like other people who lost their shadow.
The shadow touched the small cloth bag, "this is my booty."
spoils? The magician seemed to think of something and looked down at the ground
"My shadow... Disappeared?! sure enough, you are the one who stole the shadow in the city!"
The shadow raised his eyebrow: "ah? When did you find it?"
The magician gasped: "blonde hair and blue eyes... You always sit next to kabasha and little John..."
The shadow suddenly realized: "it's because of this... Unexpectedly, you are still the smartest person present. Now, you need to give a reward to the smart person."
As he spoke, the shadow suddenly opened his hand, and his ten fingers burst out with white lines. With a surge of magic, the white lines rushed into the gray cloth bag containing the magician's shadow.
A miniature black figure was dragged out of the cloth bag.
Carefully distinguish, you can see the palm sized black figure, which is similar to the magician's body shape, but it is dark and has no distinguishable features.
The shadow tied the black figure with white line and moved slowly on the table.
At the same time, the magician suddenly became dull, followed the shadow on the table and moved slowly... When the shadow came out of his left foot, he came out of his left foot, and when the shadow raised his right foot, he raised his right foot.
Like a real puppet.
And the puppet master is the shadow!
