Volume 2 Children's Chapter 17 The Castle of Tricks
"Please be sure, do you want to increase your loyalty by 10 without weakening the strength of the sword spirit?" the system beep sounded again.
Feng Mian's two eyes stared at Shen Boran with a lewd smile on his face through his body, without any expression, as if he had nothing to do with her, this may be a natural habit, or it may have been silent.
"Good.. My choice isβ" Ren Boran paused slightly, the curvature of the corners of his mouth chilling.
"No increase!"
"Are you sure!"
"Yes, sure!"
Feng Mian's mouth opened slightly, and he looked incredulous, such an opportunity to turn over as a farmer/slave landlord actually gave up?"
"I really underestimated him. Feng Mian muttered, the corners of his mouth inadvertently raising a smile.
"Okay!" the voice of the contract system remembered, and then the cyan light in his hand merged into his body, Shen Boran began to receive and learn, and Feng Mian also regained his freedom again.
Two hours later!
After the first basic sword move of Xieyang was five moves, and the concealment talisman, including the previous two talisman seal techniques, had been learned and improved, Shen Boran opened his eyes, and Feng Mian had returned to the sword.
Condensed the demon talisman again, converging on his eyes, he found that everything in his eyes was clearer, and every grass and tree in front of him was in full view. It turned out that this was the case, Shen Boran rode on the black cloud and rushed towards the middle of the two paths, slightly raising his hand to slash the demon sword, and instantly unsheathed, "Sure enough, I am stronger!" When the horse was about to rush to the top of the mountain rock, the speed slowed down.
Seeing this, Shen Boran kicked the horse's belly, the black cloud ran in pain, Shen Boran was on the horse's back, the sword in his hand danced wildly, and the first move of the first style of the slanting sun swordsmanship was "Falling flowers are ruthless." β
The sword moves are in a mess, and the appearance of the flowers is very strange, just like a cannibalistic mouth, wrapped in yellow leaves, and white buds like teeth, as if they will bite you in the next second, making people's hearts rise goosebumps.
Under Shen Boran's sword moves, all of them were defeated, and after the flower bud spat out something black like ink, the illusion was cracked, and a third continent appeared in the middle.
"Sister Mian, come out quickly, I've succeeded, I've succeeded!" Shen Boran felt a sense of accomplishment, and after a while, Feng Mian came out, looking at her as if she was a little tired.
"Sister Mian, Sister Mian?" Shen Boran retracted his smile and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Oh, I'm asking you something. Feng Mian's expression was a little weird, and it was the first time she had appeared with such a confused look.
"Why didn't you choose just now?"
"Sister Xiaomian, you know everything"
"Answer me!" Feng Mian was a little anxious, and his tone was full of irresistible breath!
"Because, you have saved me many times, in the temple, in Uncle Zhang, and just now, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have lived. Shen Boran said.
"That's all I did when I was bored, and if you had absolute control, I'm afraid it would be smoother in the future." Feng Mian asked, as if she wasn't satisfied with the answer.
"And. And we are each other's relatives and best partners in this world!" Shen Boran subconsciously blew his nose, and he looked surprised.
"Mianmian, it's good that I can touch you. Shen Boran hugged Feng Mian and circled in the air a few times.
Feng Mian heard Shen Boran's answer, as if she was touched, and when she reacted, Shen Boran actually hugged her and circled around a few times.
"Bastard, it's not big or small, it's called Sister Mian!" Feng Mian clenched his fist and punched Shen Boran on the head, Shen Boran slapped him on the ground at once, almost gnawing on the mud "Yes, Mian... Sister Mian!"
Feng Mian touched his nose, his face turned red, "Relatives, partners?" and returned to the sword with a smoke.
.....
A black horse carries a young man through the mountains, and the guide is a sword that soars in the air and exudes a pale blue aura.
After this breakthrough, Shen Boran specially spent a hundred merit points to repair his beggar clothes, and he was in a good mood.
"Left, right, left, right.." A woman's listless voice came from the sword.
"Sister Xiaomian, is it reliable this time!" Shen Boran has been walking for more than two hours, and it is only four hours before dawn...
"Oh, how dare I deceive my master!" Feng Mian said in a lazy tone, she has been like this since the Lost Forest.
"Huh!" Shen Boran was choked a lot, and sometimes he really couldn't figure out who was the owner when it was due. Hey, men still have to have a certain demeanor, and this kind of trivial matter is not taken into account.
"Besides, don't worry about being beaten too much!Is it completely unnecessary?" But Feng Mian really looked like this for the first time, and he didn't know if it was good or bad.
If it weren't for being reminded by the cold wind from time to time, Shen Boran would have felt hypnotized by Feng Mian this time?
Suddenly, Shen Boran instantly became energetic, and a small castle suddenly appeared in front of him, the castle was not high, about three floors, but it was very wide. It's not grandiose, but it's a bit sublime.
"This is it?" Shen Boran tethered the black cloud to a hidden place in the forest.
"Yes!"
"This shadow demon actually abducted the child into the castle, could there be an old witch or something. Shen Boran observed the surroundings of Cheng Castle.
"I don't know!" Feng Mian said very straightforwardly,
"You can sense it from such a distance, it doesn't make sense!" Shen Boran asked puzzled.
"That's because the distance was relatively close at that time, and the other party was defenseless, so I had enough time to lock the other party's qi. β
"Oh, this door is so open, I think... Yes!.. Sister Mian, don't scare me. Feng Mian suddenly appeared behind Shen Boran, his face was a little tired, and his eyes were cold.
"Snow White, let me in!" Feng Mian controlled the sword and pushed Shen Boran to the gate of the ancient castle, where the wind was gusting, and there was a rustling sound from time to time.
Shen Boran observed the surrounding situation in detail, there are about sixteen windows on the first floor of the ancient castle, about three meters from the ground, the windows are made of black metal, and two layers of finger-thick iron fences are installed outside the windows, it is estimated that even if the sun can destroy it, it will cause a lot of noise. Under such protection, the door was actually open, which had to cause Shen Boran to be highly vigilant.
"Is there anyone?" Shen Boran knocked on the door, and no one answered.
"I was in a hurry to join my relatives, and I suddenly got lost, so I went to Guibao Land for one night!" Shen Boran said.
"Lean by the door and turn upstairs to the first room, no money required, leave by yourself at dawn!" The voice was a little rough, I couldn't hear the specific location, and it stirred back and forth in the dark space.
"I have done something wrong, but I can still be calm and calm from this. Shen Boran had a strong sense of crisis in his heart.
As soon as you enter the hall, you will give Shen Boran a very retro feeling, the whole hall looks very grand, a colorful crystal lamp on the top of the hall hangs on the top, the colorful light is a rockery fountain, the most interesting thing is that there are two painting boards hanging on the wall behind the fountain, there is no depiction on the painting board, but a silver sword and a golden shield are hung, the two items are placed in a "V" row, it seems to be very exquisite, but the flickering lights are adding foggy water vapor, which makes people not see real.
"As the saying goes, don't practice gold swords, practice silver swords (cheap) ......" This castle owner is also very interesting.
This is just Shen Boran's thoughts, if people hear that the sword is hacked to death, it will be light.
Shen Boran turned into the corridor on the right, there was nothing in the corridor, about 2 to 30 meters away there was a kerosene lamp, and there were only a few paintings worthy of attention.
Shen Boran can say that he doesn't know anything about painting, and what taste, appreciation, and artistic conception are just rainbow farts that are not salty or light to him. But passing by these paintings in front of him, he felt that he was not pressured to admire them.
The paintings are a flower repairer with a pair of silver scissors, an old man sweeping the floor with a bamboo broom, a hat cook with a carrot with a cyan kitchen knife, a hardworking maid with a stack of empty plates, and the last pair is a proud princess with a luxurious dress and a pretty figure of no more than double ten.
The previous paintings reflect the hardships of the working people and the spirit of hard work, and the woman in this painting is enthusiastic, just like a person in a portrait. Compared with Mianmian, one is as enthusiastic as fire, and the other is cold...
"Cold as what?" Shen Boran was startled, and turned around to find that Feng Mian didn't know when he appeared behind him. She kept her head down, her hair scattered over her face, making it impossible for him to see his expression......
"Uhhh Leng Ruo.. Iceberg Beauty.. The peerless beauty in my mind..."
"Oh. Feng Mian returned to the sword in a blink of an eye, leaving Shen Boran wiping his sweat.
"It's dangerous. "If you hesitate for a moment just now or say half a word wrong, hey~ I don't dare to think about it...
The stairs are quite spacious, there is no problem with walking three or five people side by side, there are also some murals on the stairs, but it is some daily products, some dishes, chopsticks, tables and chairs, kitchen knives and so on.
Shen Boran went up to the second floor and found that they were all small rooms, the first thing he subtracted was his own room, the furnishings in the room were very simple, a small single bed, a pair of cotton slippers under the bed, and then a small cabinet, there was nothing else, Shen Boran lay on the small bed and tossed and turned for a long time.
"No, we'll have to figure it out tonight. "This castle already reveals this strange atmosphere, even if you can go out smoothly tomorrow, I am afraid it will not be difficult to get in, and it will be more reassuring to find the child a moment earlier.
After making up his mind, Shen Boran quietly walked out again. It was found that the rest of the rooms on the second floor were locked, and it was inappropriate to forcibly destroy them.
Shen Boran held his breath and condensed his breath, wanting to mobilize the merits in his body and open his spiritual eye. "Young man, as a guest, it's not good to walk around in the corridor!" This voice was the voice that Shen Boran heard when he first entered the castle.
"Uncle, I'm so hungry, that's why..."
"Oh, after two more rooms from you, there is a room without a door, and there are some refreshments to satisfy your hunger, and you must not wander around, for if you alarm your master, you will not be kept. The middle-aged uncle, dressed as a housekeeper, walked upstairs after speaking.
"Uncle, I still have something to ask. The strange uncle carried the small lamp but did not sit still, and when Shen Boran took three steps and made two steps to chase after him, he was long gone.
The stairs were dim and faint, and there was no sound of footsteps, "This is too fast!" Shen Boran continued to run up the stairs, hoping to meet the housekeeper uncle again.
Shen Boran went upstairs like this, but in a portrait in the corner of the second floor, an old man with a lamp in his hand and a slightly rickety figure was walking on the stairs in the painting.
