Chapter 186: Phantom Sand

"Why do you give away medicine when you meet in Pingshui?" I don't know why, my strong sense of defense was successfully activated. As the saying goes, the pole is not a sale, and it is really hard for me to believe the authenticity of such a free thing.

So this sentence blurted out, and I just looked at the bitter and helpless wipe of my face, and then I had an expression of crying and laughing. So he immediately changed his words, "Thank you so much." ”

Originally, Xuantu was also shocked by what I just said, but when I saw it, I immediately repented, and I didn't laugh angrily. A brown stone box appeared in the palm of his hand, and with a slight hook of his finger, the lid of the box opened. I saw a black elixir inside.

He hooked his finger again, and the box closed slightly. Then he placed the box in the palm of my hand.

"You can't eat it unless it's a pinch. Xuantu squinted happily with a sense of satisfaction that he had done a good deed. It even makes me feel that he is just a simple warm man, and not some kind of magic doctor.

"So, why are you here?" Xuantu put his hands on his head again, looking lazy.

"I just want an elixir. An elixir that can instantly enhance spiritual power. "I saw that the warm expression on the face of the original Xuan Tu suddenly disappeared. My heart moved, and my heart said that this pill is not as ordinary as Sheng Ku said? Otherwise, why did Xuan Tu immediately frown after listening to what I said.

"What? Is this elixir precious?" I asked him tentatively, fearing that he would suddenly answer yes.

Unexpectedly, Xuantu took out a black stone box from his palm again, opened it, and there was such an elixir inside. Not only that, but he suddenly threw the pill into the air, and the pill turned into countless pills. But it was only for a short moment, and he opened his slender and white fingers again to take those pills back.

"No, I have countless pills like this. "He looked at me arrogantly, like a kid showing off to adults that he had a lot of toys.

"That's... Do you want to give it to me?" I happily held out my hand to him, but this time, he shook his head.

"I am principled. He shoved his fingers into his fluffy hair and scratched at it. But this action does not appear to be sloppy, but a little lazy and comfortable. However, his eyes began to become melancholy, and he no longer looked at my face. It was as if I saw another world through the scenery behind me.

"Youβ€”what do you want me to do?" I didn't really want to disturb him, he was completely different from the magic doctor I had imagined before. He is like a big child with pure eyes, with a warm tone and a smile.

"My love is gone. Finally, he lowered his head. And the tone is very sad.

"What does it mean to be gone?" I asked cautiously, for fear of annoying him by arousing his sadness.

"Well, you help me find my lover. Then help me coax her, as long as she agrees to see me, I will give you the elixir. He smiled suddenly, as if he were complacent that he would have come up with such a good idea.

I relaxed slightly, and said that as long as people don't die, with my eloquence, I can't say that I can be a qualified street aunt, but it is very possible to persuade a couple. Besides, I looked back at Shengku, and at the moment, he was bored looking at the sand and gravel on the ground. It doesn't seem to take the conversation between the two of us to heart. I nodded. Whether I heard it or not, he would help me in the end.

Now that I have made up my mind, I swear to Xuantu and say, "If I persuade your lover, you will give me the pill?"

Xuantu stretched his waist, "Originally, everyone who came here had to leave something they thought was the most important thing to exchange with me for an elixir. But, I think you're a lot like her. Then, as long as you do this well, I can naturally fulfill my agreement. ”

I nodded, there was nothing wrong with this logic. He was even a little glad that he had a resemblance to his lover. That's why it was possible to exchange for pills under such easy conditions. Otherwise, if he really asked me to leave the most important thing, I? I subconsciously looked around at my body, and then glanced at Shengku, and said in my heart, I can't help it. Then the only way to leave this thing is left.

Sheng Ku saw that I had a strange expression, a defensive face, and asked me what had happened with his mouth. I snickered in my heart, you have been thrown away by me once invisibly, poor fool.

Xuantu interrupted me, "What are you thinking about?"

At this time, I was already full of self-confidence, and since Xuantu had opened the back door for me, I naturally had no reason to refuse. "No problem. I nodded firmly.

Xuantu looked very happy, and he clapped his hands, as if he wanted to hug me, but after a moment's pause, he gave up on this idea. He retracted his outstretched hand a little awkwardly, and then deliberately lowered his voice, "She'll not like it." ”

"Don't like what?" I looked around in surprise, thinking his lover was nearby.

Sure enough, Xuan Tu lowered his voice even more, "My love, she doesn't like me being too close to other women. ”

I stood up abruptly and looked around again, but there was nothing. Then he asked, confusedly, "Is your lover here too?"

Xuantu nodded. "It should be here. But all of a sudden, his eyes began to wander, as if he could see his lover's shadow everywhere he looked.

"Her name is Phantom Sand. Xuantu slowly returned to the way he had been, with a happy face. "She was the most beautiful woman I had ever met, and her voice was as crisp as a yellow warbler. Her fingers were so white and slender. However, she stopped in front of me a long time ago. Sometimes, I even wondered if she really existed. ”

I chuckled in my heart, and my heart said, My God, where is this called a lover. It's okay to say it's a dream. It seems to make sense to say that it is an illusion!

"We've been relying on letters lately. You see. Xuantu suddenly interrupted my train of thought, and conjured a piece of letter paper from the palm of his hand. I reached out and pinched it, and there was an extremely neat fly-headed block on it. Because of a lot of traditional characters, I don't recognize them all. I only saw the word "phantom sand" at the end to remind me that there is indeed such a real person.

This was her last letter. Xuan Tu waved his hand slightly, and the letter suddenly disappeared from my hand, and then appeared in his hand. Phantom Sand says she's fed up with the women who come to the valley to ask for medicine, but still have to be coquettish to me. She said I was a prodigal son and didn't deserve her love. And said she would never see me again! I was terrified, so I deliberately set up a hurdle for returning to the valley this time. I just wanted to tell her that I could not see any woman, but I couldn't live without her. ”

I looked back at the direction of the labyrinth of bones, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for the people who had come here blindly. But after thinking about it again, it seems that the people who can come here are all demon beasts with their own desires. Even so, they should pay for their actions, albeit at a high price.

"However, your lover, the Phantom Sand, still hasn't appeared?" I asked tentatively, for fear that any sentence would hurt his fragile mind at the moment. I didn't want to offend him so early, because the elixir I asked for seemed to be the only one he had.

"Yes!" said Xuantu sadly, "but the letters I gave her would be opened every day, but she would never reply to me again. She must not believe me anymore, that's why she tortured me like this. ”

I sighed, I didn't expect the man in front of me to be so infatuated.

"Don't worry. I will definitely do my best to make the Phantom Sand change its mind to you. ”

A sudden look of joy appeared in his sad eyes, and he stood up and waved his hand gently. On the opposite hill, two tall wooden houses suddenly appeared.

"You can stay in the room on the left, and if you fail, I'll let you go." ”

I looked at the two wooden houses and wondered. Although I thought that this matter could not be solved immediately, is it really necessary to live here permanently?

The earth suddenly turned into fine sand and gravel, and climbed back to the bare mountain, and finally came over and asked, "How is it?"

I reluctantly pointed to the wooden house on the hillside, "This can be regarded as a kind of vacation!"

"What happened?" Sheng Ku was a little puzzled, but his tone was urgent. I looked at him a little strangely, and I just felt that something was wrong.

"Didn't you just listen to our conversation, why do you want to ask me?"

He hurriedly made a silent gesture to me, and then pointed to the two wooden houses. I wondered a little about his behavior, but I nodded my head when I saw his serious face.

He led the way in front, and he led me over the dirt mountain made of sand and stone very quickly. Then I walked to the hillside with the dense greenery of the wooden house. Only then did he gradually slow down his pace.

"What's wrong?" I finally asked.

Sheng Ku lowered his voice and explained, "All of a sudden, all of a sudden, I saw you squatting on the ground in a still state. I talk to you, and you don't pay attention. So I touched your shoulder, but the hand passed through your shoulder. ”

"Illusions?" I was a little nervous.

"Do you remember the different illusions you and I saw when I entered this valley? So this Xuantu must be a master of illusion making, he can pull you into the illusion before my eyes unconsciously, but he can also create another illusion of you in front of me at the same time. But the two of us didn't realize it, it was really scary. ”

I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, thinking back to the suffering I had seen in the illusion just now, it seemed that only the suffering at that time could make me agree to Xuantu's request so easily.

I can't help but have a crisis of conspiracy and the fear of falling into a trap.

"You didn't promise anything, did you?" said Sheng's bitter eyes, full of worry.

I smiled awkwardly, "What if I say yes?"
