The rebirth of the evil woman is not easy to mess with

Chapter 978 Vicious Puppeteer!

One of them was unlucky, and was hit directly in the chest by a tile, and the whole person flew backwards for six or seven steps before landing on the roof with a bang.

But his weight exceeded the capacity of the beams, and he fell from the roof into the room in an instant.

The rest of the people were terrified when they saw this. The tiles are so powerful, this person must be a master.

So they immediately jumped down the hole, ready to rescue their companions.

However, Li Qingmu was faster, and after a few ups and downs, he directly broke through the roof and jumped down.

There were bursts of woman's screams in the room. It was an old lady living alone who was frightened out of her wits by a few people who fell from the sky, especially those people who were still wearing horror masks, and fainted on the spot.

Li Qingmu's arrival immediately sparked a scuffle.

But he soon discovered that these people's light work is not bad, but their fighting skills are mediocre.

After a few tricks, Li Qingmu subdued them all, then found a piece of cloth at the aunt's house, tore it into several strips and used them as ropes, and tied them up.

Li Qingmu lit the oil lamp at Auntie's house with a torch, and Li Qingmu told Qi Jingyu who came over: "Take off their masks!"

Not long after, young faces were exposed in front of Li Qingmu. The strange thing is that these people are not only young, but also male and female, but without exception, they are all one-eyed.

Qi Jingyu was taken aback, looked at the dark eye sockets and said, "Uncle Emperor, what's going on with them?"

Li Qingmu didn't know, so he had to interrogate on the spot: "Who are you, who asked you to come out and arrest ordinary people?"

No one answered, and Li Qingmu asked several times, but still no one answered.

Soon he discovered the clues, the eyes of these people were dull, like fools, and he checked carefully, all of them had a silver needle behind them.

No wonder, it turns out that they are all puppets manipulated by others!
After getting this unexpected discovery, Li Qingmu immediately guessed why those people wanted to kidnap ordinary people. There must be a puppet master who is proficient in magic behind them.

This is a sorcerer's sorcery, which erases the sanity of ordinary people through secret methods, turning them into puppets who obey their orders. Even if they are asked to die immediately, they will die without saying a word, which is very strange.

But this kind of magic is said to have been lost a hundred years ago, but unexpectedly it revived in Linzhou City.

He briefly explained this sorcery to Qi Jingyu, who asked in surprise, "Uncle Emperor, what do you mean, someone here is refining an army of puppets?"

The puppet army that knows no pain and is not afraid of death will indeed be terrifying if it forms a large scale.

If ordinary people encounter it, they will soon lose their fighting spirit and be defeated.

Li Qingmu nodded, "Based on my guess, it's likely to be the case. We must find out the person behind the scenes as soon as possible, otherwise if we let him succeed, the entire Linzhou City may become a dead city."

No wonder the people here are so panic-stricken, no wonder even the yamen closed their doors to thank visitors, it turned out to be the case.

Qi Jingyu said worriedly: "Uncle Huang, do you know how to find out the people behind the scenes?"

"It's very simple, just follow the clues, take these people back first, I want to study it."

The two tied these people together with cloth strips and brought them back to the inn. Li Qingmu pulled out the silver needle from the back of one of the women's ears. As a result, the woman foamed at the mouth and twitched all over. Kungfu is out of breath.

He looked at Qi Jingyu in embarrassment, and explained: "Mistake, mistake..."

Qi Jingyu also knew that the emperor's uncle was not omnipotent, so he said with a smile:

"It doesn't matter. It's not easy for the emperor to know so much, but I don't think the silver needles can be pulled out casually. Why don't we let them go and follow their footsteps?"

This is a good way, but Li Qingmu guessed that these people didn't go back, maybe the people behind the scenes have noticed it, even if they were released, it would be useless.

Fortunately, these people were very quiet after their masks were taken off, which reminded Li Qingmu. He immediately told Qi Jingyu to take care of these puppets, and then returned to the aunt's house, bringing back all the masks.

After studying under the oil lamp for a while, he found that each mask had a formation in it.

It turns out that these masks are not useless, but are used to control these puppets.

With this discovery, it would be easy to handle. Li Qingmu immediately sent a letter to Yan Luo in the Yulong Terrace, asking him to find someone who understands the formation to come to Linzhou.

Yulongtai is full of talents, and everyone has their own field of expertise. He remembers that one of them is quite good at this field.

The rest of the time could only be waited. Fortunately, these puppets were motionless, hiding under the bed and not being discovered by the innkeeper.

On the second day, a woman in purple damask came riding a fast horse from the post station. When she saw Li Qingmu, she bowed her head and said, "My subordinate, Jin Xiangyu, pays homage to the lord."

Although he knew that there was someone in Yulongtai who knew the formation, Li Qingmu didn't remember who it was, and the appearance of this woman at this time surprised him a bit.

Then he looked at Qi Jingyu who looked strange, and immediately reminded: "This is my subordinate, don't let your mind wander."

"Uncle Huang, please don't wrong me, please? I'm worried that you have some bad intentions, and how did you get it on me?"

Li Qingmu coughed expressionlessly, and changed the subject: "I have a few masks here, which depict formations, I hope you can help me identify what formations are."

As he spoke, he took out a mask from under the bed and handed it over.

Seeing this weird big-headed doll, Jin Xiangyu looked inside suspiciously, but it didn't matter, she was so frightened that she had goose bumps all over her body.

After confirming again and again, she said with a serious face: "My lord, this is the soul control magic circle. It is said that it has been lost for a hundred years. Where did you get it?"

So Li Qingmu talked about the six puppets he caught yesterday, and dragged out a puppet from under the bed, which was the female puppet from which he pulled out the silver needle.

Jin Xiangyu took the silver needle and carefully identified it in the sun for a while, and said: "This is the soul needle, and the formation is also depicted on it. It is the same as that mask. If you carry these two things at the same time, you will become a person who is not a person. A puppet at the mercy of others."

"But this puppet master is very vicious. In order to prevent his secret from being discovered, he even carved a more evil formation on it. As long as you pull out this silver needle, you will die on the spot."

This also just confirmed the fact that after Li Qingmu pulled out the silver needle last night, the woman died of foaming at the mouth.

Li Qingmu frowned and asked: "Then do you know how to crack these formations? There may be many people in Linzhou City who have become puppets."

Jin Xiangyu said in embarrassment: "This soul-controlling formation has been lost for a hundred years, and I'm not sure about it. I need to study it for a while."

Right now there is no good solution, Li Qingmu can only pin his hopes on her: "Then you should study first and try to find a feasible solution."
