Chapter 1057 One hundred twenty four. Approaching

  The gardener's land that has lost its lord can temporarily serve as a hiding place for Lu Li and Claire.

  Although you can hide back to the firewood room, but the vision is blocked there, and if you are found, you will have to escape in a secret way, completely losing the opportunity.

   And the gardener's domain is adjacent to the woods.

  Lu Li and Claire quietly walked in the fluorescent dead forest. The dead branches of the shadows wriggled toward the undetected back—helping to cover up the tiny traces it left behind.

"how did you do that."

   "What to do, attract gardeners?"

"Um."

   "I just made it think that I stole its treasure chest." Claire landed on Lu Li's head: "How could I fly around with a big and heavy treasure chest, I hid it long ago."

   "Treasure chest?"

   "Are you interested? I can take you there..."

   Approaching the edge of the fluorescent dead forest, Lu Li had already seen phosphorous-like fluorescence wandering in the gardener's territory, deformed plants coiled around the crooked tombstone, and rotten flesh piled on the roots.

   This was once the family burial ground of the Earl of Hunt and is now a gardener's nursery.

   The "little gardeners" did not know that the lord was dead, and were still carrying out the orders of the viscount and gardener, patrolling the territory and taking care of the garden.

   "Below the tombstone is their residence. The gardener lives in the large cemetery in the center, and I hide the treasure chest there... What's the matter?"

  Claire, who was huddled on Lu Li's head, was led to look behind her.

   "Many bats pass through the dead forest."

   Lu Li's calm words sounded.

   "Going to the manor?"

"Um."

   "Looks like we can't hide our identities, what about the head maid?"

   "I didn't see it."

   Looking back, Lu Li followed Claire's guidance and avoided the "little gardeners" along the way to approach the necropolis.

  The nursery growing in the cemetery helped Lu Li to hide his figure, and the wandering "little gardener" was too dull to perceive, so Lu Li and Claire approached the gardener's cemetery without much effort.

  The tomb moss like mushrooms was spread on the downward tomb, and the depths were lit with fire. Lu Li stepped on the blood-colored tomb moss cheering his arrival into the tomb, and the simple tomb was presented.

  There are torches on the walls, the stone benches used as workbenches are placed with unfinished bodies and corpses, and there are filthy hay piled up as beds in the corners.

  Claire flew to the dead end of the stone platform, and waved her wings to drag out the treasure box that could hold Lu Li.

  The treasure chest didn't even leave the tomb, and the gardener deceived better than he thought.

   Lu Li came under the stone platform. It is more in line with the definition of a safe than a treasure chest, but is made in the shape of a treasure chest. The elongated hole indicates what needs to be embedded to open the treasure chest.

   "The gardener doesn't look like he's hiding the key somewhere...it should have been with him, and it was chopped up by the head maid."

  Claire didn't care what the treasure box contained, and speculated maliciously: "The gardener cares so much about the treasure box, maybe what organs are in it."

  da——

   At this moment, the sound of sticky footsteps came from the steps.

  Claire pushed back the treasure chest, and Lu Li hid behind the shadow of the stone platform.

  The firelight descended from the steps, and the hateful "little gardener" assembled from different corpses entered the cemetery, unaware of the hidden uninvited guests, and slowly left after replacing the torches on the wall.

   When the footsteps are far away, they emerge from their hiding places.

  The stench around the stone platform is unbearable.

   "I don't have much time, I plan to sneak into the castle to explore the situation." Claire said.

   "Do you need me with you?"

   "No. You can't fly, you're not as nimble as me, you're not as fast as me, and you're not as good at fighting."

  Claire decisively refused Lu Li and flew out of the necropolis.

  The torches in the tomb burned silently. Lu Li, who had returned to tranquility, set his sights on the treasure chest.

  It weighs about 10 pounds to 15 pounds, and the tail can be dragged.

  Lu Li patrolled the empty and rudimentary tomb, then went back to the treasure chest and dragged it to the torch.

   Firelight penetrates the keyhole and illuminates the edge of the hole. The depth is shallower than expected, not even the width of the slender keyhole. A wide, flat, odd-shaped key came to mind.

   That's obviously too weird.

  Looking at the pore texture, the key is free from the shape of the traditional key, for example...

   A coin with a pattern on the surface.

The    tail stretched out to the side of the keyhole to compare the size, and the Goldmelin Emperor Gold coin suggested by Will Ken really seemed to be similar to the outline of the keyhole.

   After thinking for a moment, Lu Li dragged the treasure chest back to the back of the stone platform and silently jumped up the steps to leave the tomb.

   A few minutes later, the outline of Lu Li appeared in the fluorescent dead forest.

   Getting the news from the woods that the bats had not returned, Lu Li picked a fluorescent fruit that would keep him from being engulfed by the darkness, and approached the manor quietly with his tail curled.

   The dark night sky swept across the dark outlines, patrolling and wandering over the manor.

   Approaching the mansion silently against the flowing shadow of the mud, and got into the half-closed window.

   In the corner of the silent corridor covered with the red carpet, a pair of pitch-black cat pupils briefly stared at the bat on the upside-down chandelier and retracted to the corner.

   Bats were stationed at every corner of the corridor of the mansion, and the only room Lu Li could enter was the laundry room at the end of the corridor.

  The sound of footsteps sounded, Lu Li pricked up his ears, and quickly hid in the laundry room.

  The lizard maid then entered the laundry room, put the dried maid's pajamas and long skirts in the basket, and returned to the upstairs.

  The bat was indifferent to the passing of the lizard maid along the way, and it successfully came to the second floor and entered the head maid's room.

  Squeak-

   opened the closet, the lizard maid picked up a maid costume, shook it open, and hung it on the hanger.

  The basket placed beside his feet stirred silently at this moment, and the flowing shadow burrowed out from under the clothes.

  The meat pads and blankets covered Lu Li's footsteps, silently approaching the corner, and rolled out the Gudmelin Emperor Gold Coin from behind the drawing board.

   bypassed the broken glass, jumped on the window sill, and drilled through the broken window that had not been replaced.

   The night wind blowing into the bedroom along the gap suddenly whimpered, and the lizard maid who picked up the second piece of clothing turned her head alertly, only to see the empty window sill restored to tranquility.

   Retrieved the gold coins and the eyeballs on the eaves, and returned to the cemetery on the same road.

   Through the unsuspecting patrolling gardeners, back to the burial chamber. Lu Li dragged out the treasure chest and held up the gold coin to compare the keyhole.

The    King Goodmelin gold coins fit snugly into the keyhole, as if they were originally one. As the tail turned, the inside of the treasure box sounded the sound of the operation of the mechanism.

  Kacha——

  The treasure chest opened a gap.

   With the tail opening the treasure box, Will Ken hoped that the things that Lu Li touched would emerge from the bottom of the box.

   A complete eyeball lying in a treasure chest.

  Claire is right, the gardener's chest does contain organs.

   Looking at the cloudy eyeball, Lu Li wondered if the thing in the treasure chest was not it.

   It seems that the only way to know the answer is to ask Will Ken. But when he was about to summon Anthony, the businessman, Lu Li heard a roar of roaring into the cemetery, echoing in the empty tomb.

   Hiding the treasure chest temporarily, Lu Li came to the surface.

  The little gardeners who sensed the roar in the nursery got rid of their numbness and gathered in the southern part of the territory.

   There is no vision here. Lu Li got into the fluorescent forest and was lifted up to the canopy by the branches. Finally, he saw the chaos erupting at the edge of the garden.

   Humanity has arrived.
