Chapter 55 Aftermath Work
Piao Tianwen Chapter 55 After-disaster work
In this prosperous imperial capital, there is a special rule, that is, forbidden nights. Whenever this time comes, everyone must stop moving and are not allowed to appear on the streets of the imperial capital at will. Of course, this law only binds most people, except for magicians, nobles and patrol troops.
Although Lin Feng, the Duke of the Snow Demon Wolf of the Empire, could go out openly, and there was no patrol army dare to intercept his carriage, what he had to do now should not disturb anyone. The reason why he wore this night-slide clothes was that he did not want others to discover his face. The most important thing was that the night-slide clothes could also have a good protective effect in this quiet dark night and could easily avoid the patrol army's reconnaissance.
With his current peak level eight, even if the white fighting spirit is particularly conspicuous in this dark night, with his speed, even if he speeds past the patrol army in person, it will not attract much attention from the patrol army. Even if this group of patrol army sees it, it just thinks that they are dazzled.
In fact, even if some veterans with rich experience know that someone is passing by quickly, they will not make any noise. After all, they are not opponents of people with white fighting spirit. Besides, they eat imperial grain from the empire just to make a living. In this era without war, they are used to living a comfortable life. If something really happens, there will naturally be officers above to take the blame. At most, they will pick out a few unlucky people who are not good at interpersonal relationships. It is not their turn to take the blame.
Like the patrol troops in other main cities, when there were no riots or other things, in order to show that they were not waste, they would bully the vendors who set up stalls and let them fight in blood, so they would not do it!
Therefore, when encountering a white shadow or shadow of other colors flashing in the dark, ordinary patrol soldiers will pretend to be invisible even if they see it.
"Ah!!! Hey, James, did you see it just now? Just fly over a white shadow not far ahead!!" On a street in the imperial capital, a little thin new recruit patted the shoulders of the strong veteran next to him in panic, with some worry and panic in his voice.
James glanced at the young recruit and said indifferently: "Churchill, you must be dazzled, how can you have any white shadows? Do your thing well, don't always look around."
"You... didn't you see?" Churchill was immediately startled when he heard this. He raised his hand and pointed to a corridor ahead with trembling terribly. His voice was full of horror: "Just, it's that place!"
"Okay! Stop calling." James moved his neck: "What you see is just a wandering soul that comes out at night, don't make a fuss!"
"You...youhun???!!!!" It's okay if you don't say this, Churchill's horror voice was a little out of tune. He held the hilt of the sword in one hand and hugged James' arm with the other, and his whole body was pressed against him.
James paused for a moment, and his face hidden in the darkness showed a little enjoyment. He took a breath and turned his head to look at Churchill with a terrified face. He no longer had the indifferent tone, but said softly in a stern voice: "Don't be afraid, I'm there."
Churchill's body trembled, but his arms tightened even tighter with his arms held Old James. He stared at James for a while before he said with a touching look on his face: "It's great to have you."
After the words came, James took a light breath, looked up at the sky, suddenly broke away from the arm that Churchill was holding him, and then put it around Churchill and continued to say gentlely: "It seems that it is going to rain, and our time is coming soon. You can go to my place to rest later."
"Ah?" Churchill was obviously stunned, but then he buried his head in James' arms with a shy look. He stretched out a hand and gently hit James's chest. He said, "You are so bad..."
Then, in the dark night, only James's chuckling voice was left...
And in a corner not far away in front of them, Lin Feng, who was covered in black, suddenly felt a surge in his abdomen, and his hair was standing on his back...
Originally, this was the first time he had "slid out" secretly in a night-slide clothes, and he had no experience at all. He couldn't help feeling nervous. When he was passing through this place just now, he was accidentally discovered by the patrol army. He quickly flashed by at his speed, but was still shocked by Churchill's scream that was comparable to a scream.
So, Lin Feng hurriedly hid in a corner and observed quietly to prevent him from attracting the attention of more patrol troops. Unexpectedly, he witnessed such a scene full of grace...
After finally controlling the surging in his stomach, he watched the pair of patrol soldiers gather in front of the team and disappear into the quiet dark night. Lin Feng took a few deep breaths before continuing to rush toward his destination.
This time, with the lesson from the last time, Lin Feng was much more careful, trying his best to avoid the location where the patrol troops appeared, and finally arrived at his destination with caution.
Lin Feng's destination was not other places, but Paul's Academy where he lived for five years.
At this late at night, the entire Paul Academy had already become silent. Lin Feng hid in a corner and watched a team of patrol troops walk past the academy. Taking this opportunity, he climbed over the wall and jumped into the academy without hesitation.
Under the dim moonlight, a black figure was swept through the academy quickly with white fighting spirits. His goal was very obvious, and it was Dean Robert's study.
And in this late night, there were no students, so there were no guards outside Robert. After all, with his strength in the Holy Land, there were not many opponents on the mainland, and those who could become his opponents could not defend them with just a few guards.
Lin Feng quickly came to Robert's study near him, looked around, and confirmed that no one would find him, so he hurried to the door of the study. But just as he wanted to knock on the door of the study, Robert's voice rang out in his mind: "Come in, the door is not locked."
Hearing this sound, Lin Feng did not hesitate, and immediately pushed open the door of the study and immediately flashed into the room.
As soon as he entered the study, he saw Robert wearing pajamas lying on a back chair, holding a thick book under the dim oil lamp, watching seriously. Seeing himself in black, he put the book aside, slowly sat up straight, raised his head and said calmly: "What's wrong? Is it difficult to deal with what happened when I dressed up like this? Is it difficult to deal with when I come to me so late?"
"yes!"
Lin Feng sighed. Out of respect, he pulled off the black cloth on his face and revealed his face. Looking at his father-in-law in front of him, he did not hide anything: "Sir, the trouble caused to me by the Marquis is indeed very difficult, but fortunately I have already thought of a way to deal with it now. But now time is tight and I don't have time to explain it to you in detail. You will understand it by morning tomorrow... I came to you so late to ask you to borrow someone."
"Who to borrow?" Robert said the point without any nonsense.
Lin Feng took a breath and spit out a name from his mouth: "Coach Bart."
...
With Robert's consent, Lin Feng came out of the study again and found Old Bart directly. Old Bart obviously received Robert's message. When Lin Feng found him, he saw that he had already dressed in a night-like dress like him. Without asking anything, he said directly: "Let's go."
Seeing this, Lin Feng did not explain much. He nodded and took Old Bart over the wall and left Paul Academy. On his way to the Duke's mansion, Lin Feng learned from Old Bart that he didn't have to avoid the patrol army's sight. He also took this opportunity to explain his thoughts to Old Bart.
After the two of them climbed over the wall and entered the Duke's mansion together, they avoided the patrol guards in the mansion, and then went directly into Lin Feng's room. However, the two did not take off Ye Xing's clothes, but just took off the black cloth covered on their faces.
"How is it? Is it OK?" Lin Feng asked, pointing to Philip standing aside, but there was a hint of nervousness in his voice, obviously he was very concerned about this matter.
Old Bart stared at Philip for a long time, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes. After a while, he nodded slightly: "It shouldn't be difficult."
Hearing this sentence, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "Coach Bart, I'll trouble you."
After he finished speaking, seeing Lao Ba nodding, he brought the black cloth covering his face again and walked out of his room. After seeing that there was no one around, he found a corner again and changed his clothes before, and finally walked towards the dungeon "blatantly".
Before Marley came back, Lin Feng simply sat in front of the dungeon and waited. As time passed little by little, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a little anxious as he watched the horizon gradually turn white.
Fortunately, after a while, Marley finally returned to the Duke's Mansion. Lin Feng saw him from afar and hurriedly met him.
Marley's face looked a little bad, and even a little pale, even his lips looked bloodless. On his shoulders, he was carrying a large black bag, which was bulging inside, obviously stuffed.
"Mali, thank you for your hard work." Lin Feng patted Marli's face and asked his shoulder to comfort him. Then, he didn't bother to say anything more and snatch the black bag from Marli's shoulder. While running towards the dungeon, he said, "Go in with me quickly."
Then, the two entered the dungeon, and Marley carefully locked the door of the dungeon, and followed Lin Feng to Philip's cell before.
At this time, only Philip's clothes were left on the ground in the cell. Lin Feng took a look and then gently placed the black bag on his shoulder on the ground. Then he ignored Mali, closed his eyes and muttered something in his mouth. After he opened his eyes, he bowed to the black bag.
Marley looked at Lin Feng's actions and showed a strange look on his face, as if he was a little confused. Lin Feng glanced at him and said, "Everyone has dignity, whether it is before or after death."
While saying that, Lin Feng also opened the black bag, and what caught his eye was a corpse.
This corpse is a male. Although the cold body has long become white, it has not yet rotted. It is obvious that it has just passed away a few days ago.
There is no cremation in this world because under the influence of doctrine, people generally believe that the souls of those who are burned cannot return to God's arms, so only those who violate the gods will be tied to the stake and burned to death.
Because of this, it is still easy to find a corpse, and the purpose of this is naturally to serve as a substitute for Philip. After all, Philip, the culprit who assassinated the marquis, disrupted the duke's banquet and scared countless nobles from any angle he had to die. In order to give other nobles an explanation, Lin Feng could only create a corpse by himself.
In fact, it is not difficult for Lin Feng to find a real stand-in for Philip. Just find a slave with a similar appearance to Philip and kill it. It is also "fresh", which is much more real than finding a corpse. Moreover, this practice is normal in this world, and no one will say anything.
But Lin Feng was influenced by his previous life concepts after all, and it was not that he was unwilling to do so at all.
But... in this dark and smelly dungeon, it is also in a quiet night. It is inevitable that it is a bit terrifying to observe a male corpse at such a close distance.
Marley went to the outskirts of the city alone to look for the corpse, and his face was naturally extremely ugly. At this moment, he was with Lin Feng, and his face was much better. He looked at Lin Feng carefully looking at the male corpse and asked in a low voice: "...Is that OK?"
"Yes, it's just a little worse in figure." Lin Feng sighed slightly, his face a little unfair.
When Mali heard it, he immediately said, "Then I'll go back and find another one."
"No, this is already very good. If you disturb one deceased, don't bother the other deceased anymore, and we don't have this time." Lin Feng shook his head: "Besides, I'm afraid no one will go to observe a corpse close up."
As he said that, Lin Feng picked up the clothes that had originally belonged to Philip on the ground and threw them to Marley. He took off the clothes on the body and said, "Hurry up, we don't have much time left for us. After this matter is over, you can help me quietly bury the deceased."
Marley nodded, took the clothes he handed over, and helped Lin Feng change the body into Philip's clothes.
After the change, Lin Feng looked at it carefully for a while, leaving Mali to guard outside the dungeon, and then he returned to his room.
As soon as he entered the room, Old Bart threw a mask to Lin Feng: "It has been made, but because the materials are not very complete, it is still quite different from human skin."
Lin Feng touched the mask and it was a bit rough. It was indeed not as good as a human skin, but who would touch the face of a corpse?
So, Lin Feng said, "Coach Bart, thank you. You can rest in my room today. After you wake up, I will send someone to send you back."
Old Bart also knew that time was tight, so he didn't say much and just nodded.
Then, Lin Feng winked at Philip. Philip understood and immediately followed Lin Feng out of the room.
Afterwards, the two of them quietly arrived at the dungeon. After Marley nodded and confirmed that no one noticed it, the three of them came to the dungeon again.
When Lin Feng put Old Bart's mask on the head of the corpse, Philip couldn't help but say "Huh" in surprise.
Lin Feng glanced at Philip and whispered: "You stand with the corpse, I'll compare it."
Philip was in the battlefield for a long time, so he naturally would not be afraid of a corpse. In order to make Lin Feng more intuitive comparison, he simply lay directly next to the corpse and put in the same position as the corpse.
Lin Feng compared it carefully for a while, then ordered Mali next to him, "Mali, please help me prepare some golden dye and chicken blood, well... it's better to change the color of the chicken blood, so that the corpse looks poisoned and dies, but it doesn't lose the smell of blood."
After saying this, after Marley left, Lin Feng sighed again and apologized to Philip lying on the ground: "Tomorrow, I will ask Coach Bart to make a mask for you, at least in recent years, you will have to show up wearing a mask."
"It's okay." Philip survived the disaster, which was enough to make him very content. When he heard Lin Feng's words, he immediately grinned: "My life is given by the Duke, and wearing a mask is nothing. Moreover, for me, it is safer to wear a strange mask."
Hearing this answer, Lin Feng nodded and did not say anything more. Then he took out a pair of scissors used for alchemy from the space ring, compared it with Philip, and then cut his hair for the corpse on the ground.
When the hair of the corpse was trimmed to the same as that of Philip's, Marley had already returned to the cell. Lin Feng took the golden dye he handed over, first dyed the color of the corpse's hair the same as that of Philip, and then took Marley to prepare the color of the chicken blood and applied it to the corner of the corpse's mouth. Then he stood up and looked at how many differences there were between the corpse and Philip.
After the corpse was trimmed to be similar to that of Philip, Lin Feng asked Philip to stand up. Then, he pondered for a moment and bowed slightly to the corpse again.
This action fell into Philip's eyes, and a hint of surprise immediately rose on his face. But before he could think about anything more, Lin Feng's voice came again: "Well... it's almost done. Philip, go back to my room first, be careful not to let anyone find you. Don't walk out of the room before Coach Bart made a mask for you."
"As for orders, sir." Philip owed Lin Feng slightly, glanced at the corpse on the ground, and then walked out of the cell.
Then, Lin Feng said to Mary again: "Okay, Mary, go and call your men and ask someone to prepare an open-air carriage. After dawn, I will pull this body out and circle around the imperial capital. Well... Finally, I will pull it directly to the door of the Marquis' Mansion! By the way, let Bond find me in the study, and then you go back and have a good rest."
Chapter completed!
