CHAPTER XIII
Yao Ji's speed was almost so fast that she couldn't see her figure, Tang Ning couldn't catch up even if she wanted to, she had no choice but to stay where she was with Jian Wu with a confused face.
Jian Wu's expression was solemn, as if he had thought of something bad, and sent the sword in his hand into the scabbard, just half a breath, and also swept in the same direction with Yao Ji, both of them were extremely fast, and they could hardly see the afterimage, but fortunately, Tang Ning was in a soul state and had a natural speed bonus. Although he still couldn't keep up with the sword army, he still had the guidance of the system, and he was finally not left behind.
But even so, when Downing arrived, it was too late to watch the opening.
Yao Ji knelt, she knelt in front of the closed door, and shouted loudly, "Landlord, landlord, please meet Yao Ji, meet Yao Ji! Yao Ji is wrong, Yao Ji is wrong, you can punish you however you want, but please save my son, he is still young, he is innocent, he can't afford such torture." The traces of on Yaoji's body are gone, and she returns to the poor beauty, kneeling on the ground with the rain pear blossom and begging bitterly, if it is a man with a little heart, he must be moved by it.
Yao Ji didn't dare to enter the door, because there were four guards standing in front of the door, they were wearing the same clothes as the sword warrior just now, obviously they were all guards, and they had already drawn their swords, and they surrounded Yao Ji impenetrably, as if as long as they waited for the people in the room to give an order, they would immediately be able to chop Yao Ji into meat puree without hesitation.
But no matter how Ren Yaoji knelt in front of the door and cried, there was no movement inside, whether she wanted to promise Yaoji or wanted to kick her out, there was no response. The attitude is ambiguous, inexplicable, and unclear.
Tang Ning was a little curious, and decided to go in and have a look, anyway, they couldn't see him, he could walk through the door generously
The situation inside is not as tense as outside, the maid and the slave are all standing on the side, all kinds of utensils are neatly arranged, and the layout of the whole room is bright and warm.
After walking around here in all his boredom, he found that there were no important people to discover, so he went upstairs again.
There is not much difference between the layout of the building upstairs and the downstairs, to be honest, Tang Ning was a little surprised, he had wandered around the city and seen many buildings, from Tang Ning's point of view, the main person in this building should be the building chief, it stands to reason that the status is more noble, but... Now it seems that this building is no different from the ones outside, and even slightly ordinary.
"Ugh!" The only thing that's weird here is... So quiet. Yes it was quiet all around tang ning was shocked by the good family style of the maid of the landlord's house when he walked so well he understood the rules is. But, this one is... As Downing walked through one of the rooms, he heard a muffled voice.
Presumably this room should be the residence of the landlord, and a voice came. Well... Curious to hear...
"Xiao An, can you help me know what the people inside are talking about?"
… Why do you like to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, "Sorry host, the permission is not open yet..."
"..."Fall... What the hell is this broken system for?
Although this is a bit unethical, I really wonder why the soundproofing of this house is made like this... It's good to have no sound at all! To be like that, to listen to a sound, but not to hear what is being said, is simply tempting to sin... Belch... Suddenly I remembered this place, it seemed to be the land of wind and moon
… Well, it was he who was wrong.
It's a tough one, he can't push the door lightly, it will make a noise, so how can he get in.
"Host, heteropupil, why don't you try your eyes. "Everyone's abilities are different, but eyes are always special," said yours. ”
Tangning blinked, and his pure black pupils immediately turned pale yellow.
Tang Ning looked curiously at the window of the room with these eyes, but ......
"Are you kidding me?
…… Although I don't know why, Xiao An still wants to say: "Concentrate, not everything can be seen casually." ”
"Oh!" Concentrating, Tang Jun squinted his eyes and looked ahead, his pale yellow pupils and expressionless face.
"..."Why the hell? This person's pupil, just now it was... It's an illusion.
(⊙o⊙) Wow!" came out, came out, there was a picture out, "Awesome!" It feels very mysterious, as if the pictures overlapped, and you can see wherever you want to see with your own mind. Is this the blessing that God has given me?
However, Jianwu was divided into two compartments, separated by a gauze curtain in the middle, and Jianwu stood respectfully in one of the rooms, standing very straight against the gauze curtain, obviously there was someone on the other side of the veil. Probably the landlord.
But it doesn't matter, just a layer of veil can't stop Tang Ning at all, Tang Ning's vision gradually followed his consciousness through that veil, but he felt a little disgusting, while passing through that veil, Tang Ning felt as if his body was bound by something, but after breaking free, there was no such feeling.
After passing through that veil, what Downing saw was a bed?
There was a man lying on the bed, dressed only in white profane clothes... He was covered with a messy quilt and long black hair, but he was messed up, and although there were some rules in his sleeping position, he couldn't ignore the saliva on his mouth... This is really the master of the guy out there... It's so disillusioned. That swordsman looked so serious, why did he have such an unobtrusive-looking master.
But if you put away those complaints about this body, it seems that something is wrong, there is a feeling of overlapping shadows, it is obviously this body, but another face will be reflected between the blurs. What's going on!
"Xiao An!"
Hearing Tang Ning's call, Xiao An came out in time to answer him, "It's a seizure, the soul and the body don't match, but it is forcibly left in the body." However, after being gradually assimilated, I believe that it will not be long before this body will fully adapt to this soul. ”
… Tang Ning was a little dumbfounded for a while, is this the seizure? Then he may become like this in the future?
"But there's something special, host, he might be your classmate, and his soul data isn't in my database. ”
"So, Xiao An, can you help me check which people are not from this world?" Tang Ning was a little surprised that Xiao An actually had these functions.
"No, Xiao An's authority is only limited to inquiry, and the soul that has not yet entered the main body, his soul is still unstable, so he can be queried by Xiao An. This is the soul that has been stabilized, and we have no right to look at it directly. ”
It's still a waste skill after all, isn't it..."Could all systems be the same as you?"
For... Why do you say, "The system settings are determined by the host, the system permissions are determined by the host escalation, and the system is determined by the host." ”
Jian Wu, waiting outside the curtain, kneeling on one knee, he lowered his head, he didn't want to leave Yaoji, but the matter has already been in front of the landlord, if he makes a claim, he is afraid that the landlord will be unhappy when he wakes up.
Tang Ning only had eyes so he couldn't hear what Jian Wu was saying, but he could vaguely see his mouth moving, he should have reported Yaoji's situation to the landlord, but was this kind of unilateral report really useful?
This picture is very weird, the people inside are sleeping like pigs, but the people outside are respectful and like anything.
And inside the house, Jian Wu's voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of waking up the one in the curtain.
"Life and body are not yet fully integrated, and the movements of the human soul and body are not fully coordinated, but they can live well.
"Sequelae, when the body and soul are not completely unified, considering that the host will not give up, the system will help the host to adjust the body, but it will consume a lot of energy during the period, and the host will have a habit of sleepiness. Xiao An patiently helped Tang Ning explain, but seeing that the host on the other side turned out to be like this, it looked even more stupid than Tang Ning, hehe. was able to successfully get the body, and it was a body that looked good, so it seemed that it shouldn't be difficult for his host to have a body.
Tang Ning also knew when he heard it, this sword warrior looked quite upright, but he didn't expect that he was a little careful in his heart, the sound insulation of this room outside the voice of the people basically could not be transmitted to the inside, of course, the inside could not be transmitted to the outside, so their landlord couldn't hear Yao Ji's cry at all, and knew that the master was asleep, and his job as a guard was to report to the master, but if the master didn't hear it, of course, it was not their fault.
Sure enough, because of the exhaustion of energy, the soul on the other side showed no signs of waking up.
Jian Wu was not in a hurry, he still maintained that half-kneeling posture, and he did look extremely respectful, their landlord, but he didn't intend to tell the landlord about Yao Ji at all.
A scheming guard.
Tang Ning didn't know how long this silence would last, but Yao Ji's shouting outside suddenly stopped, and Tang Ning didn't know what was happening, so he opened an empty room next to him and looked out of the window.
He saw another person coming outside the door, and Tang Ning couldn't see the woman's face clearly, but because the woman's voice was very hoarse, Tang Ning speculated that it was an elderly woman.
This woman was very respected among the guards, she stepped forward and seemed to say something to Yao Ji, her voice was very indistinct, Tang Ning still couldn't hear what she said, "Xiao An, is there any way you can let me hear what the people over there are talking about?"
Such ambiguity is very seductive to other people's curiosity.
"Given that the host has no hearing bonus, Xiao An is unable to meet such a request. Xiao An cruelly rejected Tang Ning's vexatious request.
… Well, it's useless, condition, I can't just move on to what happens next.
However, at the same time that the woman walked into the house. Downing turned silently, and he looked at the room where there was not a single living person. Suddenly he felt a little melancholy, sighed, and at this moment he seemed to feel that everything in the world was still, as if he was the only one, detached from the outside, as if only he was different.
It didn't take long for Tang Ning to feel that someone was coming up the stairs, and he couldn't tell the feeling, obviously there was no sound there, and he didn't hear any sound, but he could really feel that there were people there!
Why? Downing couldn't understand why, this feeling of being in a state of mind. Is it a delusion......
But Downing didn't have time to think about it, because the man was already going to the bedroom next to him, and this was a good opportunity, and he had to get in.
Seizing the opportunity, Tang Ning jumped over, and before he had time to think about it, he was already in the house. Tang Ning was a little at a loss, so he had to silently find a place to stand down.
Actually, Xiao An, I still want to complain, the host... Do you remember your mission?
Downing was looking for a very good perspective, at least he could see everyone's faces very clearly, of course, except for the one inside the gauze, but he had different pupils, and after opening his pale yellow eyes, everything in the room was under his eyes. Including the mysterious woman from before.
Unexpectedly, although it sounded like an old woman's voice, the woman's face was very beautiful, and although there was no delicate makeup on her face, she was still glamorous, well, she was still glamorous.
This woman looks very tasteful, although she is beautiful, but in fact she is not very prominent, if Yao Ji is a plum blossom, then she is a bamboo... Don't complain about why Downing used plants to describe this woman, and it's bamboo.
The beauty is crystal clear, and people dare not take offense. But there is respect, without a trace of dissatisfaction. "Tong Lao. Seeing this woman, Jian Wu also stood up and saluted him respectfully.
Well, well, it's quite old. I almost forgot that this thing is a world of cultivation, and the face can be transformed, and it can also be immortal.
For the first time, Tang Ning realized that this world was different from his original world, even when he first entered this world the day before, because he was a third-party perspective, he didn't have much sense of substitution, but now he had a trace of emotion because he saw the art of immortality with his own eyes. It may be that he has seen a host with the same fate as himself, or he may have seen the legendary art of immortality. Although this theory of immortality may have to be put in quotation marks.
"How is the landlord?" Tong Lao saluted respectfully in the face of Jian Wu, without the slightest discomfort, but walked quickly to the front of the gauze curtain, obviously with a noble status, accustomed to such a salute.
"Landlord..."Jian Wu hesitated a little, and glanced back at the gauze curtain, "Landlord, he seems to be a little sleepy lately. ”
"Why don't you tell me in time for such an important matter?" When Tong Lao heard that, he only shouted outside the curtain, "Landlord!" But the people inside obviously did not respond.
"Jian Wu, something so big happened, why don't you tell me, what happened to Lou Main, can you take care of it?" Tong Lao suddenly became very serious, and he was very angry at Jian Wu's irresponsible behavior, "If something really happens, you can't afford to take a few lives." ”
"Tong Lao, I..." But it was obvious that Jian Wu still wanted to defend something. It's a pity that he was interrupted by Tong Lao.
Tong Lao glared at him, "If you are a guard, do your job well, don't think that you can't get it." Serving the master well is the most important thing, and you really shouldn't put the landlord in the hands of people like you who don't know how to hurt people. ”
It seems that this Tong Lao doesn't particularly like Jianwu, but has a preference for Yao Ji outside.
After Tong Lao finished speaking, he didn't care about Jianwu's reaction, waved his sleeves, and opened the curtain over there, intending to go in.
Golden opportunity... It was at this time that noticing Tong Lao's movements, Tang Ning's eyes lit up and he understood that his opportunity had come. It was concocted in the same way as before, passing through the body of the old child.
I finally have the opportunity to get up close and personal with my peers.
Tong Lao saw this, and the landlord's 'weird' sleeping posture didn't say anything, which was a little dissatisfied and frowned, obviously very familiar with this scene.
"This..."I once saw the scene at this time, and I was a little puzzled, this was obviously the soul in this body that did not belong to him, and when it gradually merged with the body, it showed a posture corresponding to the soul. And this old man should obviously know the original owner, why can he also behave so accustomed to it, and he is not surprised.
Understanding Tang Ning's doubts, Xiao An took the initiative to stand up and explain to him, "I'm very lucky, this host is lucky to find a body with a similar personality to himself, after the host is completed, the system will give the corresponding character hints, or the host, you can unlock the corresponding character memory through the task, but before that, the host must not collapse the original character, this is a world of cultivation, if it is found how much, then the consequences will be very serious." ”
Will it be burned to death as a monster or something... But sometimes luck is also a kind of strength. This colleague of his was much luckier than him, obviously he seemed to be even more out of tune than himself, but he was able to find his own body so early, although the soul was not completely overlapped, but it was recognized.
"The host has to work hard, time is running out. Xiao An vaguely hinted that Tang Ning's current behavior was most likely a waste of time.
"Mm-hmm, I'm measured. But Tang Ning still ignored Xiao An's hint very perfunctorily, and planned to continue to stay here and observe his fellow traveler.
After a while, Tang Ning found that Tong Lao looked at his peers like children, obviously glowing with the brilliance of motherhood...
However, Tang Ning did not guess wrong, as soon as Tong Lao entered the back of this curtain, the state of the whole person was different, and he became gentle and meticulous when he rushed in angrily just now. His gaze softened, and his voice became softer. Inside, outside is simply two treatments.
Tong Lao stepped forward gently, gently covered his peers with a quilt, brushed his sideburns, and his voice was full of motherhood, "They are all such big people, and they are still like children." "He seems to be a very gentle person.
"Jer... After covering the quilt, Tong Lao began to call the landlord carefully, the two were obviously very familiar, and even intimate things like nicknames could be shouted at will.
At first, Downing's colleague did not react. As if he was asleep normally, he just rolled over and muttered casually for a while, but as Tong Lao called more and more times, he began to wake up gradually.
"The good soul is sick and tired!
"It's the system over there, and the system, as an auxiliary function of the host, helps the host complete the task under certain conditions, and also has the responsibility to help the host survive. The system over there hears the call from the outside world and awakens the sleeping consciousness. Xiao An made another encyclopedic knowledge answer for Tang Ning.
It sounds so lofty.
The person on the bed woke up so naturally that Tang Ning, who wanted to watch a good show for a while, was a little speechless.
He opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was not the old man in front of his bed, but... Downing.
