Chapter 127 Weird?!

The problematic Fire-Pattern Token was actually given by a weirdo!

Startled, Fang Yue frowned, "Why did the weirdo give you the Fire-Pattern Token?"

"...Transaction!"

Answering Fang Yue wasn't Black Crow, but You Sisi, whose expression had turned grim.

She grabbed Black Crow from the ground.

"So you're underground weirdo merchants, doing business with weirdos! No wonder you dared to do what you did last night!"

"It's not what you think! We were threatened! Our entire caravan was surrounded by weirdos. They gave us two choices: die, or take something from that pile of corpses on the ground."

"What corpses?" Fang Yue asked.

"...We hired people from the Liehuo Sect (Blazing Fire Sect) to escort us."

Fang Yue understood. They hired the Liehuo Sect as bodyguards, then encountered weirdos. The Liehuo Sect was killed, but their caravan had a chance to live.

"So you chose the Fire-Pattern Token?"

"Yes, it was the most valuable thing on the pile of corpses."

Even in a life-or-death situation, he still acted like a merchant…

"You took the Fire-Pattern Token given by the weirdo, and they let you leave?"

"Yes."

This was a memory that Black Crow didn't want to recall.

First, it was too frustrating; second, talking about it would have serious consequences.

However… he had the Phoenix Organization behind him. As long as he could survive, he would definitely have a chance to turn the tables.

"...Why didn't you throw away the Fire-Pattern Token?"

"Throw it away?"

Black Crow tore open a part of his clothes, revealing a faint, snake-like black pattern inside.

"This is after the Fire-Pattern Token was sold to Master Xiong that it slowly faded. Before it was sold, the weird curse was darker, and it spread from my chest to my whole body. And as long as I had the thought of throwing it away, the weird curse would immediately appear and spread. According to them, the curse could only be lifted by trading it away through human means."

Fang Yue leaned closer to take a look. He couldn't tell that it wasn't a real weird curse.

You Sisi, on the other hand, took one look and didn't bother questioning its authenticity, basically confirming that it was a real weird curse.

"Why didn't you report it to the Qing Si? Do you doubt that my Qing Si doesn't have capable people to help you lift the weird curse?"

"Do you have the ability?" Black Crow asked suspiciously.

"No. This is an unseen weird curse. It needs to be studied. No one can guarantee the success rate of lifting it."

"..."

Black Crow's face darkened. Luckily, he had chosen the trustworthy Phoenix Organization, but by the time the news was transmitted and people were brought in for treatment, he would basically be dead.

That was why he chose to transfer the weird curse.

As a Fire-Pattern Token, the best buyer he could find was naturally someone from the Liehuo Sect.

Of course, he couldn't just give it away at a cheap price. Instead, he sold it smoothly without arousing suspicion.

After some manipulation, the item was successfully sold, and the weird curse faded, allowing Black Crow to relax.

In this way, he would have time to wait for the rescue from the Phoenix Organization to completely resolve the weird curse on his chest.

The only problem was that he had been exposed.

"Besides letting you get rid of this thing, did those weirdos say anything else?"

"Nothing else."

"Think carefully before you speak. The person next to me didn't say she wouldn't chop off your head."

"...Really nothing else, chopping off my head won't change that."

Strange, Fang Yue was very puzzled.

The weirdo possessing the Fire-Pattern Token wasn't strong.

It was just that things happened too suddenly. By the time You Sisi arrived, the Qingluan Tower was already engulfed in flames.

Judging from You Sisi's quick kill of that weirdo, its strength couldn't be much.

So the weirdos deliberately brought the Fire-Pattern Token, similar to a [Ji-Weird Stone], into the county just to cause a small disturbance?

"Lord You, I've confessed everything. I admit I'm guilty, but not deserving of death. My right arm was cut off by you. Isn't this punishment too much?"

"After doing something like this, you still expect me to show mercy?"

You Sisi smiled coldly, clapped her hands, and had the white-clothed guards who entered put Black Crow in prison, ignoring him.

Hearing that he was only being imprisoned, Black Crow didn't speak.

Because he knew that the support sent by the Phoenix Organization should be arriving soon. He would just have to endure for now.

"What exactly do those weirdos want to do?" You Sisi frowned.

"No, it should be said, what do those intelligent weirdos want to do."

At this time, Fang Yue recalled the [Finger Weirdo] he encountered in Guyue Village. Although weirdos with such a scientific spirit were extremely rare, they were not non-existent.

Or… the latest weirdo technology was hidden on that Fire-Pattern Token.

Similar to humans, weirdos were constantly improving and researching their own technologies. For example, the [Finger Weirdo] was fascinated by the technology of completely and perfectly transforming humans into weirdos, and had conducted in-depth research.

Perhaps, this was an experiment.

"Experiment? What experiment?" After Fang Yue shared his thoughts with You Sisi, she couldn't help but ask.

"Your Qingsi County has very strict inspections of weirdos, so every time a case occurs, it's either weak weirdos or weirdos with extremely strong concealment abilities. But if that technology similar to the [Ji-Weird Stone] on the Fire-Pattern Token is mature, then other powerful weirdos can also easily enter Qingsi County through this method!"

Hiss—

You Sisi hadn't thought about this aspect before, but after hearing what Fang Yue said, she immediately gasped.

If all of this came true, then Qingsi County would fall into a very, very dangerous situation.

They might have to fight a special battle in which weirdos directly appeared inside.

"No! We must let those old fogies who study weird objects immediately start a comprehensive analysis of that Fire-Pattern Token! We must find out the problem!"

Her face was ugly, and she left the room anxiously to take action.

But Fang Yue wasn't very optimistic about the outcome of this move.

They hadn't been able to find any problems with the Fire-Pattern Token before when they researched it.

How could there be any progress now?

In other words, the weirdo had already possessed it and died. What flaws could be seen in the Fire-Pattern Token, which was a Ji-Weird Stone?

Sure enough, You Sisi was sent back before long.

"What did they say?"

"They need time to study."

"...Is there a specific time?"

"No."

You Sisi shook her head and sighed.

She didn't know much about these things either. Otherwise, she would definitely operate it herself and devote herself to unlocking the secrets of the Fire-Pattern Token.

"Then is this case considered closed now? Or is it still pending?"

"In this case, it's considered temporarily closed. We'll take out the case file and record new progress later when the research on the Fire-Pattern Token has new developments."

Hearing You Sisi say this, Fang Yue was a little happy.

Although he had spent half a day running around Qingsi County with You Sisi, he was exhausted.

But he had finally followed her and understood the whole process of the Qing Si handling cases.

Next time, when he gets started himself, he can operate in an orderly manner.
