Chapter 450

The dim light source passed through countless dark red gauze curtains, and mottled blood light of varying shades fell on the ground.The hall was empty, and the plants coiled in the corners of the curtain were the only life forms here, exuding a soothing meaning that no one understood.

The teleportation point leading to the lower floor of the hall flickered for a moment, and a slender black cat appeared in the open space. It first stretched itself, as if being prodded by someone, it twisted its buttocks and reluctantly walked forward a few steps.At most three steps, it suddenly stopped and looked behind suspiciously, its cat eyes staring vigilantly at an invisible point.But as an animal, it couldn't concentrate for that long, and it quickly yawned again.It turned around, its shoulder blades were lowered, its head was slightly raised, its eyes were fixed on the front, and then it soared gracefully into the air, leaping a distance of about one meter, showing that the tip of its claws just caught the expensive yarn of the highland mage. On the tent, all the way up to the top, there were two traces on the gauze, like bloodstains.

After a while, two figures appeared in the small open space one after another, and both raised their heads to look at the cat.

Luo Qi frowned, and the human and cat confronted each other for a second. The black cat let go of the silk gauze, twisted its body in the air, and threw itself at Luo Qi's head.Roach growled sullenly, and the black cat barely adjusted its direction at the last moment and landed on Roach's shoulder.

Liu Ziyi watched the entire process of Roach recovering the detector without missing any details with the meticulousness and enthusiasm of a scholar or mage.She looked at the kitten with great interest, "It's a bit difficult to manage, isn't it? My senior brother listens to you more than it does, why?"

"Why did Du Zhengyi listen to me?" Roach looked at her with some vigilance, and said that this could be extended to accuse him of controlling Du Zhengyi with his mind, and another occasion could be an accusation against the mind mage.

"Ah?" Liu Ziyu looked at him in confusion, "I'm asking why a mere cat can't cooperate with the mind master."

"Oh." Roach understood, and was a little embarrassed by his misunderstanding.He glanced at Liu Ziyu again, "Luo Ruiqi is not exactly a cat. Its brain structure is much more complicated than that of a cat. It has some special telepathic abilities. Although technically I can completely control it, I can completely control any intelligent creature." It will cause some psychological harm to them."

Liu Ziyu nodded with a look of understanding.

The kitten tilted its head, stuck out its pink tongue, and licked Roach's ear. Roach raised his hand and rubbed it on its neck, muttering in a low voice, "Actually, I'm not willing to send it Come up and explore."

"I see." Liu Ziyu said, and assured Luo Qi, "I won't make this suggestion next time."

Roach glanced at her, the black cat was resting on his shoulder, clutching his coat tightly with its paws, and refused to put it back into his pocket as if he had slept enough. As an excellent cat slave, he obeyed the cat. will, carrying the cat cautiously through the curtains.In the space separated by the curtain, some personal belongings left here can be vaguely seen.

"Do you feel that there are still people?" Liu Ziyu asked after him, and Luo Qi heard her open the gauze curtain from time to time to look inside curiously as she walked. "How far can you see?"

Roach didn't answer, he hesitated across a path, wondering if he should waste his time and visit Qionglin's office in the corner of the hall.The place where he stood was close to the center of the entire hall.Only now did he know the function of the only fixed fountain in the hall. At this time, the fountain in the center of the hall could be used as a landmark for positioning.

"I'm very worried about Guan Xinyue." Liu Ziyu followed behind him and said worriedly, "She's not a mage. If no one notifies her when she evacuates, she may be left behind."

"Oh, you mean this." Roach looked back at her, "She's not here, I can't feel her. There is no one in the whole building, including the four botanical gardens here." Just as he turned The moment he turned his head to talk to Liu Ziyu, he suddenly saw something beside the fountain.

After a few steps, he guessed it was a book, a paper book.Highland mages don't read paper books.

Without hesitation, Roach turned around and went straight to the fountain.No one would throw anything near the fountain of the highland mage. The fountain located in the middle of the grand hall, even if the highland mage didn't say it was sacred, everyone would instinctively avoid it.Except for Guan Xinyue, she once threw a one-yuan coin here.Roach wasn't going to tell anyone about it, and he had a silent feeling that the Highland Mage might curse her for it.

When he was one step away from the fountain, Roach's heart almost jumped out of his ribs, and his eyes were fixed on the Jin Yong novel that should have been lying on his bed, and his eyes were sore.

Liu Ziyu trotted up and followed, just as Luo Qi reached out to grab the book, she ran to Luo Qi's side and asked eagerly, "What did you find?"

"This is my book!" Roach narrowed his eyes, staring at the ink painting on the cover.

"Isn't this Du Zhengyi's book? I saw that he has been reading it recently." Liu Ziyu glanced at the familiar book cover and said subconsciously.

"Nonsense, my brother's is mine." Roach swallowed, affirming his ownership, his mind spinning wildly, wondering who brought it here and why.

Liu Ziyu wasn't very interested in whose book it was, but her train of thought was the same as Luo Qi's, "Someone went to your room and took a piece of your personal belongings, and deliberately threw it in this most conspicuous place, it must be to tell you Order something."

Luo Qi looked at the name on the book cover, and said casually, "Yeah, maybe he wanted to tell me that in order to escape this catastrophe, I must practice the martial arts introduced in this book. Therefore, I first need to go out of the palace first. "Liu Ziyu's eyes widened. Luo Qi glanced at her and explained, "This is a copy of "Swordsman."

Liu Ziyu blinked, his explanation didn't help her much either.

"Forget it, don't care about what I said, your senior brother can already automatically filter my nonsense, you have to work harder, little junior sister." Luo Qi flipped through the book quickly, wanting to see what's inside Is there a note, and is there any words written on the inside page.But at a glance, there are none of these, just a broken pine branch stuck in it, which seems to be a bookmark.He touched the pine branch, which should have been broken from a temperate garden. "When I flipped through this book last time, I definitely didn't pick up anything. Du Zheng doesn't need a bookmark when he reads the book."

"So someone let you see it on purpose. What kind of message is this conveying? But why is it a pine branch? Can you guess?" Liu Ziyu asked.

Roach shook his head, his mind was indeed blank.

"Maybe they want to wish me a long and boundless life." Luo Qi said with a sullen face, "You know, pines and cypresses are evergreen."
