The reason why Chairman Kagemaru was able to find a way to give Xiaohui a gift before was also because he contacted the members of "Heaven and Hell"-these dignitaries who are eager to make a good relationship with the Lord of Life and Death often spend a lot of money, which makes many The members of "Heaven and Hell" began to concentrate on running logistics, and did not plan to continue wasting time on this mysterious island of life and death.
However, there are still quite a few people who are acting. They may be out of ambition or thirst for knowledge. All in all, those who are left now are the most difficult group for Xiaohui.
And at this time, among the tight-fitting figures walking in the garden of the island of life and death, the girl with orange-red hair is called Lina, and she is one of the outstanding figures in "Heaven and Hell".
Unlike most other companions who just seek wealth, Lina, a top student who graduated from Princeton University with full honors, is one of the few in "Heaven and Hell" who wants to really get close to and understand the second-generation duel One of the king's few people.
It is also for this reason that it is difficult for her to form a team in the organization. This time she sneaked into the island of life and death, and she could only go to the hometown of a companion from the eleventh district, and temporarily found a few ninjas, assassins and other organizations Outsiders came to enter here with her, and the only insider who really belonged to the "Heaven and Hell" organization was a school girl Lina met at Princeton University.
Therefore, Lina actually didn’t expect much from these people. She wanted these people to be more useful because they could be used to block guns at critical moments—it’s as if the Cthulhu investigators would bring a few writing “Okay” every time they took action. Like the unlucky guy who pronounces "friend" as "for the dead ghost", it has become a habit for members of "Heaven and Hell" to bring a few "disposable friends" when they act.
Don't look at there are still four people now, but there were still eight when they landed on this island-in order to get close to this courtyard, four "one-time friends" have been consumed on the road ahead.
And now, they finally approached the hub core on the "Island of Life and Death", Dongfeng Guhui's courtyard.
This is a seemingly simple shrine—of course, no one would treat it as an ordinary shrine.
It is impossible to enter the main entrance of the shrine, and the secret passage in the garden is a secret that only senior personnel of "Heaven and Hell" can know.
"Huh... finally came in, let's take a rest first." After turning over from the garden and walking into a warehouse, Lina sat on the floor of the warehouse with her schoolgirl and the remaining two "disposable friends"— All kinds of jewelry, gold, and even boxes of US dollar bills were stored in this warehouse, which made the four people who broke in swallowed for a moment.
"If you move all the things here... it will be done!" One of the female ninjas said, she looked back at her companion, and her companion's eyes were also shining with greed at this time.
"Senior sister, this is..." The school girl used her good habit of being diligent and inquiring, pointing to the treasures in the warehouse, and asked Lina: "I heard...that Lord of Life and Death is not something A greedy person?"
"Ah... don't worry, these are just the most worthless things here - haven't you seen that they are not neatly placed?" Lina took out a notebook, checked it and said: "Well ...This is a gift from those guys who are eager to curry favor with the Lord of Life and Death, they have no idea that these things may not have been seen by Dongfeng Guhui from the beginning to the end."
"Is that so..." After hearing this, the junior girl didn't intend to continue asking - because she had already glanced at the senior sister's notebook, and there were only a few short sentences about the situation on it.
Everything about the island of life and death is so mysterious to outsiders, and this has been recorded in great detail.
After recuperating a bit, Lina stood up and said, "Let's go right away, everyone, I'm worried that the undead will find this place soon."
The junior girl nodded, but the two friends showed conflicted expressions—letting them give up the gold and silver treasures in this warehouse really required a lot of determination.
"In front of the real treasures on the island of life and death, these are just rubbish." Seeing that two useful disposable friends were about to leave the team, Lina immediately used the "fudge" skill: "Our real purpose is to Those books in Dongfenggu Hui library!"
"Book collection? You brought us to such a dangerous place... just to steal books?!" The female ninja among the two ninjas frowned and asked, "What era is this... a few books are worth so much Sacrifice?"
"Stealing... stealing books! Stealing books is not considered stealing!" Lina hurriedly explained: "The pursuit of the truth...can be considered stealing? You don't know how precious the books here are..."
"That's right, now that I've come here, it means that I can confess this matter to you." Lina nodded and said, "The reason why we tirelessly pursue the secrets in the island of life and death is because someone from here Take out those forbidden knowledge—did you know? In the deepest part of the treasure house of 'Heaven and Hell', there is a book handed down from here... No, it should be said to be a notebook."
"notes?"
"Dongfeng Guhui's 'Annotation of the Voice of the Living Dead·No. 36' is the 36th book according to the serial number analysis!" Lina continued to break the news: "Although no one has seen the previous 35 annotations, this notebook reads a little bit. It's a mess, but in that commentary it clearly shows that life and death... can be broken!"
"Break... life or death?" The eyes of the two friends changed instantly.
If there is really forbidden knowledge that can reverse life and death in the library on this island...then these yellow and white things are really just rubbish.
Chapter 272 Obtaining the item "Friends with Old Seals"
Seeing that the eyes of the two friends began to flicker, but they still looked worried, so Lina added more strength: "I know you are worried about the danger ahead, so please accept these two talismans."
Having said that, Lina took out two talismans from her small bag, and solemnly said to her friends: "This talisman is the secret treasure of 'Heaven and Hell', and the undead on the island of life and death will not attack its."
"This is..." The male ninja among the two ninjas weighed one of the amulets in his hand, and soon felt that it was unusual.
It is obviously just an ordinary wooden amulet, but when it is held in the palm of the hand, it can make people feel a very reassuring feeling, and the excitement in the heart has also begun to restrain under the power of this amulet up.
This is indeed a treasure.
"Because we don't have many of these things, so we didn't take them out before." The school girl next to Lina seemed to want to ask some questions just now, but fortunately she was interrupted by Lina's strangulation in time, and then she followed up with Friends say, "How about it? Keep going?"
Although there were still some concerns, but after receiving this layer of protection, the two ninjas, a man and a woman, finally chose to follow Lina.
Although Lina's performance just now gave people a very bad feeling, the most important reason supporting these two friends to follow Lina at this time is greed itself.
People are making money and birds are dying for food. Thinking that there are so many treasures waiting for me in front of me, a warehouse here is indeed a bit stingy.
What's more, these gold and silver treasures are relatively heavy, and if you want to take them out, you can't take much - the road back is not smooth, there are many dangers on the island of life and death, and you need to be vigilant at all times and carry a large box Gold cannot go far.And a few books are very convenient, just stuff them in your pocket.
After confirming that her friends planned to follow her, Lina finally let go of the school girl who had been pinched by her all the time—this stupid girl almost exposed herself just now.
"Senior sister... I don't understand." As soon as she let go, the junior girl couldn't wait to ask in a low voice: "It is true that the amulet will not be attacked by the undead, but... it can only protect the amulet itself? If a person wears a talisman, only the small piece of skin covered by the talisman will not be attacked? Why did you say, senior sister..."
The school girl didn't say a word when she said this - because he knew that if he really believed that this amulet would protect him from the undead's attack and provoke the undead, then the final result would be that the undead would bite you to pieces. Only the small patch of skin on the chest covered by the amulet remained.
And the interaction between myself and Lina-senpai just now also shows that there must be a pit in this thing. How could these two ninjas be fooled so easily?If their IQs were not enough, they would have died outside like the other four "one-time friends".
"Sister, remember:" Lina said to the school girl with a serious face: "Many times, what some people need is not any real security at all, but a change that can make them feel at ease." More greedy excuse."
"An excuse...for peace of mind?" The school girl didn't understand.
"Even if the talisman is a treasure that can really scare the undead and not hurt the wearer, the road ahead is extremely dangerous." Lina explained to the school girl: "A really rational person knows how much he weighs. Two people... I didn't have a chance from the beginning."
She didn't understand the senior sister's words, but she was vaguely aware of something.
The senior sister hopes to use these ninjas as a shield at the critical moment, and why don't these ninjas want to use the knowledge of the senior sister to enter the deepest part of the island of life and death and obtain what they are greedy for?
After all, in terms of combat effectiveness, she and her senior sister are no match for the two ninjas in front of them. Their members of "Heaven and Hell" are actually closer to "archaeologists", but the ancient times they are studying are not those. Ancient tombs and ruins are just the home of a modern living person.
If they really turned their faces, the ninja has an absolute advantage in force.This may also be one of the sources of confidence for them to dare to go forward—the path that weak archaeologists dare to walk, why would their strong ninjas not dare to walk?
After sorting out this layer of relationship, the junior girl showed disgusted eyes.

The deepest part of the Isle of Life and Death Shrine, the room where Megumi Tokaze lived.
This is actually a very simple room, with only a bed and a few bookshelves. It is not as many people in the outside world think that there are many mysterious side objects in a mess, and this taboo experiment is carried out every day; Gorgeous, in the homes of those dignitaries who gave gifts to Xiaohui, just pick a servant's room, which is much taller than the room of the lord of life and death.
If you want to say that there is something special here... you can only talk about the wriggling quilt on the bed at this moment.
"Master, are you awake?"
The maid's gentle voice came from outside the door, and after hearing the maid's voice, the wriggling quilt on the bed suddenly twisted violently.
Then, a silver-haired head popped out from the quilt, it was Dongfeng Guhui.
"Is something wrong?"
After rectifying for a long time, Xiao Hui said to the maid outside the door in a tone that could not detect any emotional fluctuations.
"Are you awake? Can I... can I come in?"
There seemed to be some expectation in the maid's voice, but Xiaohui skillfully rejected it: "Let's talk outside the door."
