In a dark hotel room.

Lu Jiu, who was soaked all over, leaned against the wall on the side of the windowsill, lowered his head, and there was no trace of blood on his face. Even the movement of chewing the demon blood ice in his mouth was much more difficult than before. There was a bamboo tube next to him that had already seen the bottom, which was originally equipped with spare blood for healing demon blood.

It took only half an hour to return to Changyi City from the graveyard, but Lu Jiu spent nearly two hours.

The sequelae of the second runaway and the injuries on his body caused his physical condition to fall into an unprecedented trough. If an ordinary person had probably already fallen into a dying state at this time, only he could barely get up and move and still have the energy to try to recover through the demon blood ice.

However, Lu Jiu did not feel depressed at this time. On the contrary, he was in a pretty good mood.

Compared to completely dying under the hands of the monster, he is completely acceptable to the current situation. As long as the physical damage is not missing, he can naturally recover quickly by relying on this special body.

The only drawback is that the ultimate escape is not based on one's own ability, but another special existence.

After a while, Lu Jiu, who had recovered from his senses, raised his head, looked at the bed opposite, and pulled a smile that could not be forced out of the corner of his mouth and said, "If you don't speak anymore, I will regard what happened just as an illusion... Although reality seems to be much different from an illusion."

At this time, a black cat was squatting on the bed in front of Lu Jiu, staring at Lu Jiu with his pair of dark gold and red eyes, looking up and down.

"I rescued you from that ghost place, not to let you die in the hands of a puppet."

The cat's mouth had not opened and closed, but a rough voice rang directly in Lu Jiu's mind.

"Ghost place...you have saved me once, do you know where I was sent by a tomb robber?"

Hearing the words from the other party, Lu Jiu seemed to have realized something and asked in surprise.

"Or how did you think a dead body woke up and returned to your home?"

Black Cat admitted Lu Jiu's questions without hesitation, and the latter was stunned when he heard this.

Are you talking so directly now?

"Since you saved me, why didn't you show up before?"

“Want to know?”

The black cat on the bed stood up and jumped to Lu Jiu.

"I may be interested in chatting with you when you kill that guy just now."

"You are too arrogant to me. If I could kill the heart-wrenching ghost, would I still look miserable?"

Hearing the black cat's request, Lu Jiu was speechless for a moment. It was not that he had seen the battle just now.

"It's not that I look up to you, but that you are looking up to yourself. The real heart-piercing ghost. Now you don't even have the qualifications to stand in front of him. What you met before was just a semi-mechanical puppet left by him... Everyone in the world thinks that the ability of the heart-piercing ghost is to transform people into food. If it's so simple, I don't know how much trouble it can save."

The black cat told the truth about the matter and waved its tail. The eyes suddenly locked Lu Jiu's face.

"Remember, whether it was seven days ago or just now, I didn't help but feel kind-hearted when I was full. Since you want to know more, then use the mechanical puppet as the final test to show me your value... I would like to give you an extra tip, that guy has your heart on his body, and you should consider whether you want to take it back."

After the words came to an end, the black cat didn't give Lu Jiu a chance to speak. He walked towards the wall beside him. The moment he touched, a dark blue halo appeared above his head, and then the whole cat's body suddenly became illusory, disappearing straight into the wall like a ghost.

"He is quite cute, but the voice of this middle-aged man is really unpleasant."

With a pout, Lu Jiu moved forward two steps, took off his clothes and lay down on the bed with difficulty, muttering to himself.

The cat rescued him at the last moment, and there was no doubt about it.

Although Lu Jiu didn't know who this guy was, and did not understand what means it used to pull the heart-wrenching ghost away, one thing is certain that it has no malicious intentions towards itself for the time being.

More importantly, it seemed to know the secret of its predecessor's resurrection, and even took the initiative to admit that it had saved it and sent it back to its home in Qingding City.

Regardless of the truth or falsehood of this statement, Lu Jiu is sure that it must know some of the inside story.

But it didn't seem to share this information with Lu Jiu, but instead wanted him to defeat the Heart-Gaoing Ghost... No, it should be said that it was the puppet he left behind.

Thinking about it now, there are actually several aspects of the battle just now that implying this.

The guy didn't say a word during the whole process when he fought with him. At that time, Lu Jiu thought he was a heart-wrenching ghost, but he turned out to be like that because he couldn't make any expression.

There is also the mechanical prosthesis that can unfold the shield and the ability to activate it in the end he seems indifferent.

It turns out that it is not that my extraordinary ability is invalid, but that even if the puppet appears in a dizzy state, it will not affect the operation of the mechanical arm guard!

This also explains why Lu Jiu was discovered and blocked from the way when he appeared in the grave. Just as the black cat said, the heart-cut ghost left him to prevent anyone from tracing the grave in the future. Moreover, in Lu Jiu's view, this arrangement obviously has the meaning of "building a plank road openly and traveling to Chen Cang secretly".

The Heart-Gao Gui appeared in Changyi City with this appearance before, so that everyone could know his current appearance. Then he turned his puppet into this shape. Just let it go to Changyi City to show its face regularly, and naturally, many guys who covet the Heart-Gao Guigui in Changyi County will be left in Changyi County.

This was the case with one thought. Lu Jiu, who had originally planned to leave Changyi City immediately after his body recovered, knew that he would stay for a while longer this trip.

On the one hand, it is for your own heart.

The so-called "extra tip" before the cat finally left must have its intention.

The heart of this body is probably the reason why the puppet can become like this. Obviously, it is very important to it, otherwise the cat would not say something that would make it think clearly.

This means that if Lu Jiu wants to regain his heart, he must have another fight with the puppet alone, and he cannot seek the help of Jing Yesi... You should know that Lu Jiu originally wanted to find an opportunity to report to Jing Yesi and let them fight with that guy.

Now it seems that if Jing Yesi and others knew about his existence, there would be no problem in solving this mechanical puppet by then, but that heart would not have the chance to be with Lu Jiu.

On the other hand, it is to complete this test.
