Chapter 79: The Ghost of Count Ratness

After walking out of the Holy Land, Du Yuqi felt that her heart was blocked because of the incident about Little Paul. She was holding her breath and couldn't get out. She was very uncomfortable. In jargon, it meant that her thoughts were very unreasonable, but when she thought of her four I can leave the Arad continent and go home after an hour, and I immediately feel relaxed all over my body.

At this time, there were seven or eight large fires burning outside. The flames were raging and the heat was overwhelming. A large number of fleeing people gathered around them.

But at this moment, a monk next to him suddenly came up to him, bowed to Du Yuqi and said:

"Sir, this man has been looking for you. He seems to be in a hurry, so I brought him here."

After he finished speaking, he stepped aside, revealing a ragged-looking homeless man. This guy was about forty years old. The fur of the sheepskin jacket he was wearing had been worn away a lot, and there were stains on it. There were several big holes, his hands and feet were all red from the cold, his face was stained with dirt, and his skin showed purple-black frostbite.

Such a person can be said to be the most common in Chatley City. Every day, a group of similar guys are probably frozen to death on the streets, and then thrown directly into the wasteland outside to feed the wolves.

The tramp bowed to Du Yuqi, and then whispered to Du Yuqi:

"Honorable Master, my name is Mott. I have grown up in Chatley City since I was a child. Well, my family lives not far from the Earl's mansion, because every year the mansion recruits some temporary handymen to chop wood. I was always called upon to buy firewood, carry water, repair houses, etc., so I was fortunate enough to meet Lord Latnis several times, and I was very lucky to receive a reward from him once. "

Du Yuqi squinted her eyes and said impatiently:

"I'm in a hurry, let's get to the point!"

The homeless man Mott said hurriedly:

"It's like this, my lord, the Earl's Mansion has recently suffered a very big accident. It is now in ruins. It is said that no one survived at all. My family lives not far from there. I am really hungry. So after dark, I wanted to go find something to eat to see if there was anything that could be used as firewood to burn. Unexpectedly, not long after I entered, I encountered, encountered."

Having said this, Mott's eyes revealed a look of horror, and he whispered:

"I met the ghost of Count Latnis!"

Du Yuqi's heart suddenly thumped, and she took a cup from the side and poured him a glass of water. Mott took a few sips of the cup of hot water, and then the fear in his eyes gradually dissipated.

Then he said:

"I was almost scared to death, but the ghost of the Count didn't bother me. Instead, he asked me to go to the Minsk Cathedral to find a man named Priest Du, bring him a few messages, and then tell me I went to a place where I was told I would be paid, and sure enough I found a handful of shillings there.”

Du Yuqi was stunned for a moment, but instead of continuing the topic, he asked instead:

"Isn't there an ice and snow blockade set up by the Bantu tribe outside? As far as I know, even a very powerful army has been blocked outside this terrible blockade, and you?"

After hearing what Du Yuqi said, Mott immediately said:

"Sir, you are absolutely right, but that is already in the past. You should have experienced that terrible earthquake, right? In the earthquake, it was not just the buildings near the church that were destroyed, but also the blockade The lines were also affected, with large-scale collapses occurring.”

"At the same time, those hateful barbarians also suffered heavy casualties during the attack and were unable to maintain this line of defense. Therefore, they have now retreated to the Dofur Station to the west of the church and have begun to transport a large number of looted things outside. , it seems that he has completely given up his evil intentions against the temple.”

After hearing what Mott said, Du Yuqi was stunned. She didn't expect such a big thing to happen outside, so she took two pieces of bread to Mott, then went out to inquire, and found that the situation was indeed the same as what he said.

Only then did he turn back and ask Mott:

"What message does Count Ratnis want you to bring to me?"

When Du Yuqi asked this sentence, he seemed to be careless, but in fact he was already very energetic, because he knew very well that truly brilliant lies are always true and false, or even all of them are true. But the details will mislead you into the terrifying abyss.

Mott said:

"Sir, the earl said that he wanted to see you, so he could go to the family's mansion. He also said that you would be suspicious, so he asked me to tell you: the first three secret treasures are not bad, but if you want the third Four and fifth secret treasures?”

After hearing Mott's words, Du Yuqi's pupils shrank for a moment. When he reached the deal with Count Latnis, it could be said that no one else was present, so this was a secret between the two of them. Mott handed over the three items. Once something as critical as the secret treasure is revealed, the possibility of others imitating it is very small.

He pondered here for a long time, then stood up and planned to go find his companions to see what they had to say. After all, whether it was Lin, Changmei or Xi, they could be said to be well-informed and able to make very useful suggestions. However, after Du Yuqi stood up and walked more than ten meters, he suddenly realized that Mott was still following him, and his eyes suddenly lit up and he said:

"Did that old guy Latnis leave anything to say?"

Mott, the homeless man, immediately said with a smile on his face:

"Yes, yes, sir, how do you know?"

Du Yuqi said excitedly:

"What else did you say?"

Mort grinned and said:

"He said that after I find you, he will give me a good reward!"

Du Yuqi:

"Okay, I will, but before that you have to accompany me to meet a few people."

***

After a while, Du Yuqi called all his acquaintances together. Among them, Duize, Mingxi, Changmei, and Xi were the best to find because they lived directly in the training house allocated directly to Du Yuqi in the church.

This is where the Minsk Cathedral usually receives foreign guests. The conditions are quite good. Although the room is not large, even if you sleep on the oak floor in the room, the environment is much better than in the refugee tents outside. Lin and FIRE were in another room less than fifteen meters away.

Du Yuqi first explained the situation he was facing in detail, then asked Mott to repeat what he had said before, and finally asked everyone to distinguish the authenticity. The first person to express his opinion was Lin, who said very directly :

"I don't know if there is anything wrong with this content, but what is certain is that this homeless man Mott is not lying. Well, because of my special status, I have been trained in this area since I was a child and can accurately distinguish Is a person lying?"

He is always known for being well-informed, but this time he told Du Yuqi:

"The realm of the soul is very complex and mysterious. Necromancers' research in this area is recognized as the most in-depth in the world of Arad. However, they can only gain power from torturing the soul, but they cannot manipulate the soul to lie, especially Lat. The soul of a great nobleman like the Earl of Nice has a very long inheritance and a title awarded by the country during his lifetime. This soul can be said to be more powerful. Unless it is self-destructive, it is almost impossible to control it. "

After hearing Chang Chen's words, Du Yuqi felt confident. After thinking about it, he took out the +11 Kulan's Flame Shadow Sword, pointed at it and said:

"To be honest, although this old guy, Count Latnis, doesn't have a good reputation, he is still quite generous. I helped him with things, and he gave me three secret treasures. This weapon is one of them, and there are two more. The secret treasures are six large crystals, plus an Albert scroll, which contains the swordsmanship of Xi Lan, one of the Four Sword Saints."

"So, what I mean is that we go to see him together. Firstly, it will reduce the risk on my side to the minimum. Secondly, he mentioned the fourth secret treasure in his entrustment, which is obviously beneficial. , everyone’s trip should not be in vain.”

Du Yuqi proposed this, and the rest of the people had no objections. Du Yuqi gave Mott a magic gold coin and let him leave. The group of people set off again overnight and rushed to Count Ratnis's mansion.

This trip was already a familiar one, and the ice and snow blockade had been broken, so the group moved very quickly. Especially for Du Yuqi, after obtaining the black bamboo bracelet, the improvement in movement speed and jumping ability was really obvious. , it is worth mentioning that FIRE was unable to make the trip together because he had repeatedly frostbitten his ankles during the battle with Bone Prison Breath. The accumulated cold energy in his body had to be resolved before the wound could be treated. It was really an action. inconvenient.

***

About forty minutes later, Du Yuqi and his party came to Count Latnis's house again. As soon as they stepped inside, old Count Latnis appeared directly. His appearance at this time was He was in the formal form before his death, but his whole body was transparent and bluish, and he had completely transformed into a ghost form.

However, as the saying goes, people need clothes, Buddha needs gold. Although the old Count Latnis is in a ghost state at this time, wearing a slim-fitting suit with neat lines, his figure looks much slender and straight, and he pursues taste. They also pay special attention to details, whether it is a brooch inlaid with jewels, a bow tie embroidered with gold thread, gemstone cufflinks, or an exquisite handkerchief in the breast pocket of a suit, www. The nhc made the aristocratic character in him come out from the inside.

Because Du Yuqi had seen an innocent soul like Witch Liz before, and had such a foreshadowing, the appearance of old Count Latnis could not scare him at all. His only concern before was that it was a scam, but now it looks like It was almost impossible to get up.

When old Count Latnis saw them, he immediately stood still, bowed slightly, took off his hat, and then said loudly:

"My guest is here, Nile. Tell the kitchen to bring the freshly baked honey snacks and pour a pot of hot milk tea."

Having said this, old Count Latnis suddenly got stuck, then smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"I'm really sorry. I still haven't been able to adapt to the cruel fact that I'm dead. But without the shackles of that lingering body, I can do a lot more things. At least I can turn into a ghost and fully explain my funeral. Okay, it’s better than dying in an unclear way and not being able to explain anything. Speaking of which, I still want to thank you.” (To be continued.)
