Chapter 394
Under the night, the crow in the form of Kong Ning overlooked the palace in front of him.
The barren and dilapidated palace has been uninhabited for an unknown period of time.
Even though the guards inside and outside the palace were heavily guarded, and heavily armed soldiers patrolled back and forth, they still couldn't conceal the dilapidated atmosphere.
This is the end point of the Yin soldiers' way, which must be related to the weirdness in the imperial city.
Kong Ning flew around the palace, but found that except for the pitch-black gate, it was completely airtight, and he didn't know what was going on inside the palace.
In the capital city tonight, strange things happened one after another.
First of all, during the religious ceremony in the imperial city, sky lanterns were suddenly released one after another.
Afterwards, the Yin soldiers borrowed the way, and the weird black shadow held a big umbrella and crossed the streets and alleys, and came to this deserted palace.
When Kong Ning looked back, he found that the direction the group of black shadows came from seemed to be within the walls of the red imperial city.
In other words, this group of black shadows were also released from the imperial city...
The black crow stood on the eaves, thinking silently.
This palace is full of strangeness and something wrong.
Kong Ning wanted to go in and have a look, but was also worried about some irresistible danger in the palace.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt a slight heat in his arms.
Kong Ning on the eaves immediately changed back to a human form, and stretched his hands into his arms.
He took out the ancient book he got from a dream.
The cold ancient scroll, which could not be burned by fire, now exudes scorching heat.
When Kong Ning grasped the pages of the book with his hand, he felt that he was about to be scalded.
And the text on the cover of the ancient scroll actually changed.
After Kong Ning turned the pages of the book, he saw in astonishment that the ancient characters on the pages were trembling rapidly.
Immediately afterwards, those words continued to spread out and reorganize.
Finally turned into a new pattern.
Under the icy moonlight, the text on the first page could be vaguely seen, and it turned into a human face.
The facial features were drawn extremely scribbled and not realistic.
However, Kong Ning recognized who this face was at a glance.
"Ma Liu?!"
Looking at the blurred faces on the page in astonishment, Kong Ning turned to the second page.
The text on the second page also disappeared. Instead, it was a black and white portrait with extremely scribbled style.
And this portrait is of Wang Hu, a colleague of Kong Ning's county government in Shanlan County.
On the third page is Mr. Liu, the county magistrate.
The fourth page is the bustard of Chunfeng Building...
Kong Ning's expression was astonished, and he kept turning backwards. But I found that on every page, there were black and white portraits drawn, all of which were the faces of those old people in Shanlan County.
An obviously thin book, it seems that it is only a hundred pages.
But Kong Ning kept turning the pages, but he couldn't find the last page.
And the more you turn back, the black and white portraits that appear gradually show many faces that Kong Ning doesn't know.
Shanlan County is neither big nor small, even if it is Kongning, it is impossible to remember everyone.
The faces on this ancient scroll are old and young, male and female.
Even Miss Xu San's face appeared on the pages of the book.
Scrolling all the way down, the only thing Kong Ning didn't see was two people.
They were Zhang Rong, the team leader who returned to Hejian Mansion, and Caiwei, who followed Kong Ning and left Shanlan County.
And the text on the cover of the ancient scroll has also become a font that Kong Ning recognizes.
——The spectrum of evil.
Kong Ning looked at the completely changed ancient scroll in his hand with a surprised expression.
I have no idea why this book is what it is.
I don't know what the faces painted on it represent.
Group evil spectrum?
Does this mean that those people in Shanlan County have become some kind of evil?
Kong Ning turned the pages of the book again, and looked at Ma Liu on the first page.
But he found that Ma Liu's expression was slightly different from the one he saw just now.
It seems that during the time when Kong Ning was flipping through the pages of the book, Ma Liu's expression moved by itself.
Kong Ning looked at Ma Liu on the page, and said slowly: "Ma Liu, if you can hear me, please reply to me."
Kong Ning's voice spread out in the night wind.
And the portrait on the page actually changed.
Ma Liu's face flickered slightly.
Immediately afterwards, it disappeared directly from the page.
Kong Ning was slightly startled, and immediately looked around.
Under the moonlight, a figure stood quietly not far away, standing on the eaves with Kong Ning.
Its face was so pale that there was no trace of blood.
His eyes were also dull and cold.
Standing there quietly, Ma Liu's figure said slowly: "Kong Ning, leave the capital quickly. You are not welcome in the capital."
Ma Liu's tone was cold and dull, as if he was repeating some kind of order mechanically, without the slightest sense of agility.
More like a controlled zombie.
Kong Ning looked at it with a frown, and said, "What is your situation? How did people from Shanlan County appear in this book? And this book, what is the origin?"
Under the moonlight, Ma Liu's ghost quietly looked at Kong Ning.
He grinned and smiled.
Then it disappeared without a sound.
Kong Ning quickly lowered his head to look at the page in his hand, only to see the face portrait of Maliu on the first page reappeared.
It's just that a thin layer of veil seems to be covering the pages of the book at this time, and the face of the person is a bit blurred.
Kong Ning called Ma Liu again, but Ma Liu's figure did not appear again.
...Could it be that Ma Liu can only say one word?
Turning to the second page, looking at the portrait of Wang Hu on it, Kong Ning took a slight breath.
Just about to speak.
But at this moment, a pale hand suddenly stretched out from the darkness at the side.
Pressed on the page in Kong Ning's hand.
The other party's cold voice drifted away in the night wind.
"better not."
Kong Ning was startled, and immediately looked to the side.
I saw a figure on the eaves beside me, I don't know when.
But Kong Ning didn't recognize this figure.
The other party is not from Shanlan County.
Under the moonlight, the other party's face was also pale without the slightest trace of blood.
But those eyes were strangely dark.
Seeing Kong Ning looking at it, it grinned, revealing a mouthful of extremely dark black teeth.
Said: "The things in your book make us very disturbed."
The black shadow smiled, firmly pressed the books in Kong Ning's hand, and said, "Don't let them out again."
"Let it out again, and we won't be able to sleep."
Kong Ning looked at the strange man in front of him in astonishment, exerted all his strength, and tried to back away.
However, the opponent's hand not only firmly held his book, but also seemed to hold his body firmly.
He found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move.
Some kind of icy breath locked him like an invisible chain.
Put Kong Ning on the eaves.
The black shadow grinned and smiled brightly.
"Give up, you can't move."
"We have been with you for so long, and we didn't plan to come out. It's too early now."
"But your strange book is too evil."
"What's inside, can't come out again."
