Dong!

"Enter." Li Shier sat at the head of the bed, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, thinking about things.

Outside the door, there was a knock on the door.

It was already four o'clock in the morning, and only Fu Siyao could knock on the door.

I guess something big happened to Yongcheng.

She hurried over to find herself.

The door is not locked.

For experts, there is no difference between this kind of lock insertion and not insertion.

Beware of gentlemen, not villains.

If someone really wants to assassinate, even the ten gates will be useless.

"What happened! " Fu Siyao pushed open the door, walked into the room in her pajamas, closed the door with her backhand, and whispered: "Captain Zhao and Liu Sanxiang are dead. I heard that a man named Sima Wuji controlled many people and became the city lord."

"Is there such a thing? Is the information accurate?" Li Shier was a little surprised.

Sure enough, it was the same as I guessed.

Sima Wuji is not good at anything else, and his ability to take advantage of troubled waters is definitely the top in the world.

However, I played a lot this time and I was able to steal the seat of the city lord.

It's interesting.

"The information is very accurate! Now, let alone me, even ordinary people in Yongcheng already know this news. It is said that this new city lord has gathered forces that originally belonged to the Nine Routes and merged with the imperial guards of the City lord's mansion and is preparing for war!"

Fu Siyao was obviously a little anxious and spoke very quickly.

Only by checking and balancing the three forces can we maintain the pattern of Yongcheng for many years.

Now that the two companies are united, the situation has changed instantly.

"Are you worried that he will attack us?" Li Shier said her concerns.

"Yes." Fu Siyao nodded: "For a long time, both the city lord and the nine forces wanted to eradicate me and us old nobles. But the three families were not united, resulting in the situation maintaining a balance. If Sima Wuji really became the city lord and completely controlled Yongcheng, we would definitely be the target of his elimination."

"It's okay, go down." Li Shier waved his hand.

Lying in bed ready to go to bed.

"Things may be more serious than you think. If Sima Wuji really came to us, even if the six families fought to the death, they would not have any chance of winning. In this way, everyone might choose to surrender in exchange for a better ending." Fu Siyao did not leave, but stood beside Li Shier and analyzed patiently.

When danger comes, everyone will make the choice that is most beneficial to them.

There is nothing wrong with it.

Human nature is just instinct.

"Go to sleep." Li Shier turned around and closed his eyes.

What he thought in his heart was the headless man in his dream.

Tonight's dream may solve this mystery.

"Oh!" Fu Siyao sighed, shook her head, and had to leave.

She didn't have such a good mood.

If you can't do it well, after today, the two kings and four ministers will be in Yongcheng, which will become history.

Totally...become history.

And where should Fu Family go?

That is an army that integrates nine forces, as well as the imperial guards of the City Lord’s Mansion!

However.

These are all passing clouds for Li Shier.

In the face of absolute power, any conspiracy seems pale and powerless.

Time passes by little by little.

The dream seems to be getting closer.

Li Shier felt his body sinking and he fell asleep again.

It's pitch black!

All around!

Like an endless abyss!

It's like a black hole, devouring all the light.

Invisible.

Can't touch it.

Only when the headless man is less than one meter away from him can Li Shier see it clearly.

He has entered this dream countless times.

All you need to do now is wait quietly.

Li Shier once tried, whether he shouted himself or not.

Call, or don't.

The time when the headless man appeared would not change.

But what if he walked in the direction where the headless man appeared?

It was pitch black and there was no way to tell the direction.

Even if Li Shier walked straight away, the headless man would always appear in front of him three minutes later.

wait.

Li Shier stood there, waiting for the headless man to appear again.

Two and a half minutes.

He heard footsteps.

The sound is very slow from far to near.

Even if Li Shier turned around and walked towards the side, he would see the headless corpse in thirty seconds.

It's like there's a long time ago, it's extremely accurate.

Half a minute later.

The headless man appeared before him.

Keep a distance of about 30 centimeters and stop moving forward.

Li Shier lowered his head and looked at the corpse's right hand.

There, there was a head.

As usual, smoke was shrouded in the head, not very clear.

But every time, you can see the appearance of your head more clearly than the last time.

The corpse was exposed and was wearing animal skin.

The body is densely filled with inscriptions.

Li Shier leaned closer and looked at it, frowned slightly.

This inscription seems to be very similar to the Guiwu clan.

Killing the Ghost Queen, he took the knife back and studied it carefully.

But I haven't figured out where the text on it comes from.

What does it mean?

According to usual calculations, if the corpse appears for one minute, he will wake up from his dream.

Time is coming soon.

"Um?"

But suddenly, Li Shier narrowed his eyes and looked at the headless man in front of him.

In the past, he always wanted to figure out the other person's appearance.

Or the inscription on the body.

So much so that he never looked at the corpse attire seriously.

Now it seems, it is a bit interesting.

The skins, animal teeth, and even bracelets are strung together with grass and worn on the wrist.
