C11 (2/2)
This statement made sense. Only then did Big Board and I muster up the courage to walk towards Elder Miao's office.
The door wasn't locked and it was very easy for me and the big board to enter.
Although I didn't believe that the bell in my hand that didn't have a hammer could make a sound, the things that happened to me these days were things that I wouldn't have believed before, even if I were beaten to death. Thus, while I was rummaging through Elder Miao's belongings, I nervously observed the copper bell in my hand, afraid that it would ring at any moment.
Fortunately, Big Board and I flipped Elder Miao's work room upside down, and the copper bell didn't ring either.
”How is it? Did you find anything wrong? ”
”There's nothing wrong. They're all woodworking stuff and unused wood. There's also some finished or half-finished door frames and the like.”
In other words, Elder Miao hadn't left behind any usable evidence or clues in his workshop.
Seeing that it was already midnight, Big Board and I prepared to leave. However, just as we were about to leave, we suddenly heard Gu Yan's loud shout coming from outside.
”Who is it?” ”Don't run!”
Hearing that, Big Board and I immediately rushed out.
The moment we came out, we saw Gu Yan rushing into the building as if he was chasing someone. Seeing this, without saying anything else, I also chased after the direction that Gu Yan disappeared in!
However, when we reached the top of the building, all we saw was Gu Yan standing on top of the building with a puzzled expression, but we didn't see any trace of him.
”What, what's wrong? You, who were you chasing just now? ”
Although the building had yet to be completed, the current top floor was already sixteen stories high. In one breath, we rushed to the top of the building. We were so exhausted that we couldn't even catch our breaths. After much difficulty, we managed to squeeze out a few words from our mouths.
As for Gu Yan, although he was still standing there with a puzzled expression, he did not even breathe heavily.
Seeing this, I immediately lamented in my heart. It's good to be a practitioner! Although he is much older, his physical strength is much stronger than us youngsters.
”Are there any injured people on your site?”
After a long while, seeing that Big Board and I had almost rested up, Gu Yan finally asked this question with a serious expression.
Right now, only Elder Miao was injured on our construction site, so I replied without thinking. At the same time, I looked at him with a puzzled expression and asked, ”What? That person you were chasing earlier had injuries on his body?”
Listening to me, Gu Yan took out a doll from his pocket. On the doll, there were some words that he couldn't understand written in red ink. What's even more surprising is that Gu Yan also took out several willow leaves at the same time!
”That person just landed on the fourth floor. Because I noticed something strange on the fourth floor, I went in to take a look, so I lost him.” However, according to your words, that person must be Elder Miao! In other words, even though he lost his wooden ox, he still wanted to use a demonic method to continue harming you! Because just now when I was chasing that person, it was obvious that I was wounded, and my movements were extremely incongruous. ”
