Xiao Li failed to join the conversation between Sun Qilin and Tang Huaqing in the end, and after he came, there were only some polite words left on both sides.For example: Sun Qilin: "I don't know when this rain will stop." ”Tang Huaqing: "What you are worried about is whether it will stop. ”Sun Qilin: "Mr.
Tang said that it is inevitable to stop, and the difference is only in the world after the rain. ”"......"
Xiao Li looked left and right, suddenly felt bored, listened to them politely to each other for a while, and then had a plan to leave.Fortunately, before he proposed it, Tang Huaqing had already given up the purpose of coming to Sun Qilin this time, took the initiative to leave, and politely refused Sun Qilin's send-off.Only Sun Qilin and Xiao Li were left in this pavilion, he turned around and looked at Xiao Li carefully, and said very politely: "Go, I'll send you back, Wang Huai and they should all come back." ”Xiao Li: "No need to send it, I remember the way back." ”Sun Qilin was choked for a second, the other party was simply the death terminator of the topic, and before he could think of anything back, he heard Xiao Li ask again: "Tang Huaqing wants you to join the court?"
”Sun Qilin: "......"
Even if you guess it, don't ask so upright, okay?
He hesitated for a moment, but still said honestly: "Yes, I refused, I don't want to participate in the game between the gods, as far as I know, the god of the underworld is not good to his believers, and it is quite possible to turn his face after success." ”"But his target is not me, and my grandfather, the current head of the Sun family, I am just a junior, they need my grandfather's help to find something, and hope that he can bring the Sun family to join them, I don't know the rest."
Sun Qilin didn't seem to like the court, and he explained everything to Xiao Li.As if catching a glimpse of Xiao Li's eyes, Sun Qilin shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly: "Anyway, even if you don't ask, Wang Huai will come over to ask me, rather than being annoyed by him for a long time, it's better to tell you now." ”Xiao Li didn't look at him, he looked at the lotus leaves in the pond in front of him, the verdant green leaves were filled with too much rain, and then suddenly asked, "What happened to your family?"
”Sun Qilin restrained his smile: "I don't know very well, but I can only say that it scares me, and it is not inferior to any copy world." ”Xiao Li saw it clearly, and the other party shuddered when he said this.When Xiao Li returned, everyone else had already returned, and they chose the largest guest room, Wang Huai sat in the hammock, and the others stood or sat around the table.He swept around, but didn't find Shen Mirage.Xiao Li walked to the side of the hammock and motioned Wang Huai to move his seat to the side with his eyes, Lao Wang innocently raised his head and glanced at it, but still moved a corner for him."
What are you going to do?"
Xiao Li tried to summarize: "Disturb Sun Qilin and Tang Huaqing's tryst." ”Wang Huai: "........."
Wang Huai: "......
What?
They?
Are you serious?
”Xiao Li: "The two of them get along alone, and they are separated when they see me, and there is still some inexplicable embarrassment between the words." ”As he spoke, he recounted what had just happened.“…… Damn, I'll just say, your title is too outrageous, and you deserve to be a spreader of rumors of a fraudulent crush on the god of beauty. ”After hearing this, Wang Huai was finally able to remove the shocked expression from his cheeks, but the solemn look still stayed in his eyes, and he said simply, "The Inquisition is a guest of Sun Yaoming, the head of the Sun family, and it attaches more importance to it than we do. ”Gong Mingming picked up the conversation: "The simplest evidence is-" She was leaning against the window, holding a bottle of beer in her hand, but when she turned her head and pushed open the window, the wind mixed with raindrops immediately poured indoors, but Gong Mingming was unconscious, facing the inner courtyard outside, and continued: "They had a dinner party in the evening, which was used to welcome them, and we were hung here. ”Looking out of the window here, through the heavy rain curtain, you can vaguely see the lights of the stilted buildings in the distance, and the figures of people walking back and forth.Luo Shan said: "If the Sun family really falls to the court, it will be absolutely bad news for us, but we are still here, so at least the situation is not completely clear." ”Gong Mingming's mobile phone shook at this time, she answered a call and walked outside.Xiao Li stretched his long legs, supported himself on the ground on his toes, and swayed the hammock back and forth like a swing.Wang Huai stood up from the hammock in time and said to him: "The totem that you asked me to pay attention to some time ago, since the release of the final task, I have also noticed a few similar patterns, which have been solved by us, and some have not had time to solve them and were directly taken away by the referee." ”"The effect of this totem is mostly to promote the transformation of ghosts into powerful ghosts, and at the peak of the transformation, energy will be drawn from the ghosts, and in one of the cases, a reincarnation person from the inquisition was photographed coming out of it.""
They now worship the gods of the underworld and the god of death, in order to bring their brilliance into reality, and to meet their Lord on the day the well collapses—" Wang Huai was halfway through his speech, when he was suddenly interrupted by Gong Mingming's hurried intrusion.Gong Mingming held the mobile phone in his hand: "Did you hear any sound?"
”"Crying?"
The room fell silent, and everyone almost held their breath, but they still couldn't make out the cry from the sound of the rain.Ye Zeqing and Luo Shan both shook their heads.Gong Mingming pointed to his mobile phone and said: "I answered a phone call just now, it was my friend who was talking about what happened on their side, and I asked the person who took over the reincarnation to help, but she suddenly said that there was a cry on my side." ”Xiao Li took out his mobile phone and casually broadcast a call to Ye Zeqing.Ye Zeqing connected.Xiao Li turned on the phone on speakerphone and put it on his lap.Gong Ming closed the windows and doors to isolate the sound of rain from the outside world.At first, everyone didn't hear anything, and after listening carefully for about a minute, Xiao Li could barely make out the slightest crying sound from the noise of his mobile phone.The voice was very different from that of a crying woman.If the crying sister is the kind of cry that seems to be ghostly, then this voice is like a baby's scream, neither crying nor laughing, with a kind of innocent viciousness, and even vaguely audible, it is more like laughing than crying.Xiao Li turned off his mobile phone, but the voice was buried by the heavy rain in reality, and he couldn't hear anything clearly."
Is it a baby's cry?"
Wang Huai quickly speculated, "Infant spirit?
”Ye Zeqing denied this speculation: "It will definitely not be the infant spirit, with the strength of the Sun family, it will not be so embarrassed by the infant spirit, but-" He suddenly stopped talking, turned his head to look at the door, and put on a defensive posture, as if some ghost was approaching outside the door.With his demonstration, the rest of the people also straightened up, waiting for the arrival of something outside the door."
—knock, knock, knock."
A rhythmic knock sounded from outside.At first, the reincarnators did not answer, they exchanged a look, and Roshan clenched the compass in his hand.So the knock rang three times again: "Knock, knock, knock." ”Gong Mingming was closest to the door, she bowed down and asked outside the door, "Who?"
”"It's me, butler," the man at the door said in a flat voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, my lord has a banquet today, please come with me." ”Hearing this familiar voice, Gong Mingming was still vigilant, and she opened the door in a posture that could jump out at any time.Standing at the door was the housekeeper who had opened the door for Xiao Li before.The road belonging to the guest room is very dark, there is no incandescent lamps and other lighting equipment, and the road is slippery in the open air, ordinary people will carry a flashlight or something like that, but this housekeeper's hand is empty, there is neither a flashlight nor a lantern, he said with a wooden face: "Guest, please come with me." ”Xiao Li glanced at the housekeeper twice, he always felt that the other party was not the same as what he saw when he first came in, but he couldn't tell what was different.His changes should be very small, so small that only his intuition prompts him, but for a moment he can't find a specific change.Gong Mingming flicked his long hair: "Why did the master of the Sun family suddenly invite us?"
Isn't it the day for them to have a good time with Mr.
Tang?
”"The lord's business is not for us to comment on," the butler lowered his head and repeated the sentence for the third time, "please come with me." ”"Wait a minute."
Gong Mingming turned around and exchanged glances with everyone in the room, and then opened the door cleanly, "Trouble lead the way in front." ”The housekeeper walked at the forefront, but the reincarnation behind him had to use lighting tools, except for the flashlights of Gong Mingming and others, the small light bulb jumped out very consciously and floated in the air half a meter in front of Xiao Li, illuminating the way forward for him.The heavy rain made the corridor very slippery, even with the lights, Xiao Li almost fell down several times, but Wang Huai, who was standing beside him, helped him a few times, so that he avoided repeating the mistake of his legs and split on the spot.But the reincarnators with the lights walked so hard, but the old butler in front of him advanced very smoothly into the darkness.Ye Zeqing couldn't help but ask, "Mr.
Housekeeper, it's so dark here, don't you need lights?"
”The old butler didn't look back and said, "No, I can see it." ”Ye Zeqing looked at the pitch-black front and repeated mockingly: "Can you see?
”The old butler didn't stop and nodded up and down.His nodding posture is also very strange, from behind, normal people will lean forward when they nod, but he is a smooth straight face, without the slightest curvature.Ye Zeqing still wanted to say something, but Xiao Li pressed his shoulder and shut up.He lowered his voice, turned his head to Xiao Li's side, and whispered, "Before he came in and knocked on the door, I sensed a faint ghost aura approaching, a phenomenon that had not happened to me when I met him before. ”"I think......
He's ghosting. ”Xiao Li listened silently, and when he passed a puddle, he pointed to the old butler's leg: "See?"
”Ye Zeqing's pupils constricted and nodded.Just now they saw it clearly, at the edge of the light of the small bulb, the old butler's foot was broken.Perhaps it should not be said that it was a broken foot, because his entire instep was broken, and his bones were broken in a normal person, but he continued to walk as if nothing had happened, until he returned to the flat ground, and his foot returned to its original state, which did not affect his walking at all.That's why he's on the ground.This time, Xiao Li's eyes focused on the other party's feet, and he finally felt that something was wrong - the butler's feet, became smaller.To use a popular analogy, his feet went from size 41 to size 37, but his shoes were not changed, so it was difficult to spot.It is precisely because the housekeeper's shoes are too big that he always walks with broken feet.() I wasn't born a European emperor
