Chapter 41 Illusion
After leaving Tu Yaning, Mi August went to Suo Wuchang again. Under Suo Wuchang's probing eyes, he used five spiritual crystals to redeem the magic weapon that had been deposited with him [ Heart language].
Jiang Shou, who followed Mi August, already understood that something must have happened to her.
When Mi August returned to the room, he did not follow him. He only smiled when Mi August closed the door and said, "If there is anything I can do to help, please feel free to do so."
Mi August took another look at him, nodded in agreement and added, "It's no big deal."
Jiang Shou's smile obviously relaxed a lot.
Old house.
Mi August came back from retrieving the things he needed. At a glance, he saw the cook's version of the house spirit in the yard pressing the black dog's head on the chopping board. There was also a basin next to it, holding a chopper in one hand. The meat knife is looking for a starting point.
Feeling the gaze from Mi August, the cook’s version of the house spirit raised her face to look at Mi August, and saluted her with the dog’s head.
Mi August nodded in response.
The dog's head twisted and struggled in the cook's hand like a cattail leaf fan.
Crack.
The cook's version of the house spirit slapped it hard on the head with the back of a knife.
Be honest!
The scarlet eyes of the dog head became even redder, and tears of black smoke floated out.
Not far away lived another little water monster named [Bubble]. He was lying on the edge of the water tank, revealing his translucent round head. His eyes floated to the top of his head to peek at the scene. His body was shaking and spitting out small bubbles.
Mi August put on the night game again and entered the laboratory. Zuo Si was still lying on the wooden bed, but most of the frost on his face had melted.
"My lord, I have no intention of offending, but I can also atone for my mistakes." Zuo Si saw Mi August coming in who couldn't see his face clearly, and said proactively: "My target is not that child. I was just misled.”
Mi August took out [Xinyu], “Who is your target?”
“A little girl from the Mortal Continent,” Zuo Si blurted out. After that, his face changed slightly.
He glanced at the mysterious figure of the girl holding the heart, and guessed that his words from the heart were related to the mysterious figure, but his situation as a prisoner did not allow him to resist.
Mi August asked: "What are you going to do to this little girl."
Zuo Si, who guessed the possible effect of [Heart Whisper], still looked sincere and said: "It's not that I want to What to do to this little girl while Someone wants to do something to this little girl. I just accepted a mission."
Mi August: "The content of the mission."
Zuo Si held it back for half a second before saying, "Kill. ”
After saying that, he secretly inquired about Mi August's expression, but unfortunately he couldn't see the appearance of the person in front of him, let alone explore the other person's emotions.
There is no way to detect it from the expression, and even the tone cannot tell any flaws.
“You don’t know what the target looks like?” Mi August asked.
Zuo Si said: "I don't know. However, the person who placed the order provided a clue. The clue stated that the target was in Beiyuan City, Canglan, Mortal Continent, in a wealthy family named Wen. He was born black and thin, and he was a member of a wealthy family. He is an easy-to-recognize kid.”
In the end, he found Wen Jiachou. I couldn't see this so-called easy-to-identify child. After dealing with one or two children who looked slightly similar, I became impatient and found that they were not the targets. I arrested the eldest son of the Wen family mentioned in the personal inquiry clues. After learning that this child was The eldest young master is dead, and the eldest master who knows the family's secrets best is still in the government prison.
Zuo Si went to the government prison to find Mr. Wen, and was told by Mr. Wen that Ye Lai Tingxue was weird and that there was a kid called Mi Feixue. According to Mr. Wen's story, Mi Feixue was thin and gloomy, with a strange look and could not speak, which fit perfectly with what Zuo Si was looking for, and that was how Zuo Si met Mi Feixue outside the gate of Fu Xue.
Zuo Si told Mi August what he was thinking one by one, and even joked: "The mortals in this mortal continent are ignorant and ignorant, and do not know how to fear spiritual masters, so they fooled me like this. He deliberately concealed the gender of the young master, making me mistakenly believe that he was a girl, which led to this misunderstanding between me and the adults."
"You should have known that you were mistaken the first time you saw Feixue. Yes." Mi August said.
Zuo Si said: "Yes, it's my fault for being greedy. I'll make amends with you, sir."
The shadow of [Xinyu] stared at him depressedly, unhappy that Zuo Si had not said an inappropriate word so far.
How could it be?
How could this guy, who looked like a black-hearted guy at first glance, have no resentment in his heart and be so sincere?
Mi August suddenly chuckled, "You are speaking from your heart, but you may not say everything from your heart. Thoughts are not beyond human control. There are loopholes in the rules of strange stories, and the uncanny power of magic weapons Why not?"
Zuo Si's eyelids twitched and said, "I sincerely ask for your forgiveness. I know everything you want to ask."
Mi August said: "How to make a string puppet."
Zuo Si's face twitched and blurted out: "Damn it, she still wants to kill me!"
After saying this, Zuo Si was heartbroken. Knowing that he was exposed, he could still put on a sincere face and say to Mi August, "I am willing to accept you as my master!"
Mi August did not respond to his surrender, and took out Jiang Shou's The small tripod is placed on the table.
"Zhai, take something from his body."
A knife emerged from the wooden bed, cut off Zuo Si's hair and lowered it to the table in front of Mi August.
Yin fire burned the temple hair and threw it into the small cauldron.
Under the control of the Yin God, Xiao Ding's reaction was much faster and clearer than Jiang Shou's time, and the smoke that floated out turned into Zuo Si's appearance.
The picture that emerges inside begins with Zuo Si entering a building called the Crying Soul Building. From the picture, it can be seen that the Crying Soul Building is a transfer station for sales tasks, represented by wooden signs hanging in the air. Following one mission after another, Zuo Si accidentally found a mission to go to the Mortal Continent to kill a little girl.
The smoke enlarged the content of the wooden sign, which recorded the characteristics of the target person, which was consistent with what Zuo Si said before, indicating that Zuo Si did not lie.
But Zuo Si still concealed a few details - the reward for this task was extremely high, far exceeding the value of an ordinary little girl from mainland China.
This made many people who saw this mission before Zuo Si doubt.
The other thing is that this mission is going to the Mortal Continent, and the spirit ships from Lingzhou to the Mortal Continent have flights. It would be too expensive to serve just one person. What if the public ship does not complete the return trip? The mission was a waste of time, and it was not worthwhile to take a private boat, which was why the mission had not been accepted for a long time.
Another point is that after Zuo Si took over the task, the task wooden sign showed him a secret clue-the illusion of the target.
This illusion has blurry features and only a rough outline.
Her dark red clothes were blown close to her body by the wind, revealing her frail figure.
