Chapter 173: The Fisherman's Profit

Xishuang looked at the back of Gan Yingyue leaving, and she also understood Gan Wangmei's order. This is to ask Gan Yingyue to find clues to the shadow beast at the cost of death, she can't say that Gan Wangmei's order is wrong, even if Gan Yingyue hasn't done anything wrong, as a disciple of the Gan family, there will inevitably be times when she needs to sacrifice. Think about Gan Chayue after being controlled by the Shadow Beast, if she hadn't been dragged back in time, she would have been seriously injured in the contact with the Little Shadow Beast. Inside and outside, there is not much difference at this moment, luck and strength, two lines in parallel, just see who can have the last laugh.

Gan Wangmei glanced at Xishuang and Xie Anzai: "You can see her motives clearly, why didn't you expose her in time?"

"She is a disciple of the Gan family, as Bai Hengqi said, she is at least loyal to the Gan family, and she is just not convinced by me. Xishuang replied expressionlessly, "Personal grievances can be put aside for the time being, doesn't she think the same way?"

"I came out to find you just to tell you, just now I sensed a little fluctuation of the mirror, fleeting. One thing can be determined for sure, Bai Hengqi and the disciples he took should still be alive, but due to special reasons, his connection with his own clan was intercepted and severed. I'm thinking about whether to send more people to help, or whether to wait in silence. Gan Wangmei sighed and said, "Hengqi, I didn't misunderstand him, he is the most reliable disciple by my side." ”

Xishuang suddenly had an idea, although Bai Hengqi disappeared on the way to Xie's house and couldn't be contacted, it may not be Xie Huaiyu's hand, there are two shadow beasts outside, which can change their form at will and penetrate into the secrets deep in everyone's hearts, what if Bai Hengqi and his party encounter shadow beasts?

Thinking about it together, I feel more and more that there is this possibility. She immediately told Gan Wangmei that she didn't know about the shadow beast before, let alone how many such monsters there were, no wonder there were more corpses outside, and there was more than one mouth waiting to eat.

"Wait for Senior Han to come back. Gan Wangmei's usual calmness had collapsed in such endless changes, and she didn't even think about it carefully without Xishuang, which should have been her first thought, "When he comes back, there will definitely be clues." ”

"Then don't let Gan Yingyue go. "Xishuang hates Gan Yingyue's good character, but this person is not guilty to death, he is burdened with the orders of the head of the family, and he still has resentment in his heart, and he is afraid that he will not return.

"She's done a lot of wrong things, not just against you. Gan Wangmei didn't get angry, and explained to her gently, "It's just a cover for you, she also attacked Bai Hengqi, Hengqi was clever, and she didn't let her succeed." ”

Such a person, such a mind, where Gan Wangmei would not understand, is to exclude dissidents and stay by the side of the head of the family. If there is no second suitable candidate for the head of the family, then she is the one who will take the throne as the head of the family as a matter of course.

"It's a coincidence, her mother was also unscrupulous back then, bent on squeezing out and eradicating me. If it weren't for your mother's vigilance, I would have fallen for her way. Gan Wangmei saw that Xishuang looked like she wanted to say something, and guessed what she was going to say, "Since I recognize her, why do I accept her as a beginner, and why do I pay attention to her?"

Xishuang still hides half a sentence, you can even get rid of your own sister, such a person stays by his side and raises tigers!

"If it was her mother who was the head of the family, it might not be bad. In times of peace, many people can do it, but they are afraid that they will only be afraid of the wind and rain, and they do not know the certainty, and a wrong decision will kill many people, and even destroy the entire family. "Gan Wangmei doesn't need to give another example, a Qiu family and a Yu family are already too illustrative.

"Then if Han Sui doesn't come back and lets Bai Hengqi get lost outside, we can't contact him here, maybe he is anxious and waiting for help. Xishuang's anxiety was not pretended, in her eyes, Bai Hengqi was first a disciple of the Gan family, and then those who had a relationship with her, not to mention that Bai Hengqi did not go alone, but also brought other disciples of the Gan family.

"You just said they were unlucky, and they were attacked by the Shadow Beast. Gan Wangmei groaned slightly, "We only know that the shadow beast will read the other party's memories and thus transform into various human forms, and then take advantage of its unpreparedness to kill the killer. ”

Xishuang shook her head vigorously and said, "No, it shouldn't be like this. ”

Gan Wangmei was a little surprised by her reaction: "You mean, the shadow beast shouldn't be like this?"

"The shadow beast may be able to read part of the memory, but how difficult it is to change thousands of times, plus in the memory, how different the appearance of people is, a little different, the closest relatives can completely distinguish it. Why can't Gan Yingyue recognize it, even the housewife of the Xie family can't recognize it. Xishuang confirmed his thoughts, "The shadow beast will not change at all, what it can do is to make the other party hallucinate, see what is in the heart, at this time, as long as the body is thinking, it is simply taking advantage of the fisherman." ”

Gan Wangmei completely understood, and it was difficult for Xishuang to think about it from a different angle, but it made more sense.

Shadow Beast, Shadow Beast, Sunset Frost moved his tongue and read the two words over and over again a few times, and the name couldn't be clearer. The shadow beast seems to be a mirror, reflecting what it thinks from the opponent's mind, and what it sees is only the flower in the mirror, the moon in the water, and even he can't see through it.

"Also, when they were in the Xie family, several people all landed in a place called Wu Ning Yan, but in fact, they never left the Xie family at all, and what they were trapped in was their thoughts. This is very similar to the instincts of the Shadow Beasts. Could it be that the shadow beast was released from the Xie family, someone pointed out behind his back, gave Xie Huaiyu this kind of spiritual object, and made more use of it, so that Xie Huaiyu suddenly had a sense of superiority in grasping the overall situation. When Xishuang said this, she looked at Xie Anzai, her eyes were frank, "There is no doubt here, only questions, you can answer best, it doesn't matter if you can't answer." ”

"I'm not going to hide anything. Xie Anzai still felt that something was wrong, but when Xishuang finished speaking, he was convinced that he couldn't find a mistake. Sunset is like seeing it with your own eyes, filling all those holes.

"You said you had seen the word "smokeless" on a painting in your father's study, and this painting has been hanging there since you were a child. If you think about it, is it really when you were a child, and when you were young?" "Xishuang is good at capturing details, she never forgets what she has said to others, and she always grasps the key point in the words.

"I've been able to remember, I've always looked like I was five or six years old, and I'm not sure if I've seen it before. But I can be sure that when I was five or six years old, the words on the drawing were there, and I was very impressed, and there was no bias. Xie An snatched the branches thrown on the ground, and sketched the three words of non-condensing smoke on the soft ground, "If you read more, you can learn a general outline of the pen style." Is it the same font on the boundary monuments they've ever seen?"

"At this point, only Han Sui or Bai Hengqi can answer you, and no one else has been to Wuningyan. Xishuang assumed again, "If there is no problem with Xie Anzai's memory, then the painting in Xie Huaiyu's study is the key, and even the painting itself is a door that can be connected to other places." Including the shadow beast, it should have been teleported from this passage to the Leaving Garden, and no one knew about the whole process, so that people could panic and be caught off guard. ”

"The shadow beast is in the Xie family. Gan Wangmei narrowed her eyes, and there was a haze under her eyes that could not be hidden.

"The Xie family can't afford it. "Xishuang told the truth, otherwise the shadow beast would not have run out to forage everywhere, which is equivalent to exposing the killer weapon in front of other opponents in advance, either the strength of the shadow beast is too strong to govern, or the Xie family is unwilling to sacrifice their own disciples and release the shadow beast to be self-sufficient.

Xie An bowed his head and smiled bitterly: "Xiaoshuang's words are good, the Xie family is strong and middle-class, and he can't make ends meet." If it weren't for the fact that my mother had been tearing down the east wall and repairing the west wall all these years, even the last batch of mirror-making materials and precious medicinal materials treasured in the cellar would have to be taken out and sold. ”

"The Xie family has reached the point where they want to sell things!" Gan Wangmei's ears exploded like a thunderbolt, "The Xie family has been in obscurity all these years, and there is no loss at all, how can they be so down?"

"The consumption in the clan is very large, and at the beginning, my mother was still able to bear it, but gradually, the two met and quarreled. Even if I deliberately hide it from other disciples, how can I hide it from my ears and eyes. The Xie family has indeed been a man with his tail between his legs over the years, and it stands to reason that he can save a lot of resources, but they are all gone. Xie An noticed that there was someone behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Xiao Zhen hiding behind the tree, "Where did you go, we thought you followed Senior Han out on errands." ”

Xiao Zhen's face turned pale, her hands behind her back, and she didn't know what she was trying to hide. Gan Wangmei was particularly cautious at this time, and she turned around and went around behind Xiao Zhen and wiped the things in her hand into her own hands.

"Give it back to me!" As soon as Xiao Zhen's hand fell into the air, her expression seemed like the sky was about to fall, she screamed and pounced, and where was Gan Wangmei's opponent, she was completely restrained by one of her hands, "That's my thing, give it back to me." ”

"It's not harmful, I'll give it back to you when I see it. Gan Wangmei couldn't let her get close, and grabbed her shoulder with one hand, "You'd better not move, otherwise I'll only treat you as weak-hearted." ”

"It's not harmful, it's my own. Xiao Zhen struggled desperately and didn't listen to Gan Wangmei's advice at all.

Gan Wangmei finally saw the things in her hand clearly, she didn't recognize it, this irregularly shaped bead with purple and blue, big and small, was regarded by Xiaozhen as so important, even a small life can be wanted.

"You all come over and take a look, what is this, do you recognize it?" Gan Wangmei raised her chin at Xishuang, "The young master of the Xie family also came to see." ”

Xishuang only glanced at it, and then showed a sudden expression. So is this the reason why Qin Yunxing did everything possible to keep Xiao Zhen in the Xie family, it turned out that Xiao Zhen still had such a great use. She took the bead from Gan Wangmei's hand, and saw that Xiaozhen was struggling too hard, and her facial features were hideously twisted, she was afraid that she was going to transform again, and this time she didn't know what to use to suppress it.

"Do you recognize?" Gan Wangmei also noticed the change in Xiao Zhen, "If she becomes half-human, half-corpse, there will be no room for her here." ”

Xishuang didn't say a word, took Xiao Zhen's hand, and stuffed all those beads back into her palm: "It's back to you, it's all back to you, if you're willing to give us another use, okay?"

Xiao Zhen's eyes were a layer of blood red, and at the moment when she was about to turn over the river and the sea, she seemed to hear Xishuang's words, and with the beads in her hand, her emotions gradually calmed down. The time of this incense stick was extraordinarily long, until Xiao Zhen's eyes returned to normal, and the sunset had already explained to Gan Wangmei over there.
