Chapter 41 Illusion
After leaving Tu Yaning's place, Mi August went to Suo Wuchang's place. Under Suo Wuchang's probing eyes, he used five spiritual crystals to redeem the mysterious weapon [Heart's Whisper] that was originally kept with him.
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 glanced at him one more time, 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 holding a black dog's head on the chopping board. There was a basin next to it, holding a meat cleaver in one hand, looking for a start.
s position.
Feeling the gaze from Mi August, the cook's version of the house spirit raised her face to look at Mi August, holding the dog's head and saluting her.
Mi August nodded in response.
The dog's head twisted and struggled in the cook's hand like a cattail leaf fan.
Snapped.
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's head became even redder, and tears of black smoke floated out.
Not far away lived another little water creature 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 little 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 didn't mean to offend you, but I can 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." After Zuo Si blurted out, 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 role of [Xinyu], still looked sincere and said: "It's not what I want to do to this little girl, but what someone wants to do to this little girl. I just accepted a task."
Mi August: "Task content."
Zuo Si held it in for half a second before saying, "Kill her."
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 was no way to detect it from his expression, and even his tone of voice couldn't 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 Canglan Beiyuan City, Mortal Continent, in a wealthy family named Wen. He was born black and thin, and he was easily identifiable in wealthy families.
Child."
As a result, he found the Wen family but could not find the so-called easy-to-identify child. After dealing with one or two children who looked slightly similar, he became impatient and found that they were not targets, and arrested the Wen family mentioned in the personal inquiry clues.
The eldest young master, I learned that this 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 Master Wen's story, Mi Feixue was thin, gloomy, and could not speak. She was very suitable for what Zuo Si was looking for, and that was how Zuo Si met Mi Feixue outside the school gate.
Zuo Si told Mi August what he was thinking one by one, and joked: "The mortals in this mortal world are ignorant and ignorant and do not know how to respect spiritual masters, so they fooled me like this. He deliberately concealed the gender of the young master, making me mistakenly believe that
It was a girl, and that was the reason why we had this misunderstanding."
"You should have known you made a mistake the first time you saw Feixue." 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 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 let out a low chuckle, "You are speaking from your heart, but you may not necessarily express everything from your heart. Thoughts are not beyond human control. There are loopholes in the rules of weird stories, and there are no tricks that can be used by magic weapons."
Zuo Si's eyelids twitched fiercely and he 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 he blurted out: "Damn it, she still wants to kill me!"
After saying this, Zuo Si knew that he was exposed, but at this time he could still put on a sincere face and said to Mi August, "I am willing to accept you as my master!"
Mi August didn't respond to his surrender, so he took out Jiang Shou's small cauldron and put it 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.
The yin fire burned the hair and threw it into the small cauldron.
Xiaoding, who was controlled by the Yin God, reacted much faster and clearer than Jiang Shou's time, and the smoke that floated out turned into Zuo Si's appearance.
The picture that emerged inside started with Zuo Si entering a building called Soul Crying Tower. From the picture, it can be seen that Crying Soul Tower is a transfer station for selling tasks. The wooden signs hanging in mid-air represent each task. Zuo Si
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 had said before, indicating that Zuo Si was indeed not lying.
However, 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 had seen this mission before Zuo Si become suspicious.
In addition, 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. If you take a public ship and fail to complete the mission before the return time, the trip will be in vain.
, it was not worthwhile to take a private boat, which is why this task was not 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's facial features are blurred, with only a rough outline.
Her dark red clothes were blown close to her body by the wind, revealing her frail figure.
