XIII. Under Control (3)
Hearing Zhang Longqian's words, the manipulator's pupils shrank slightly, but he didn't deny it, but smiled coldly: "This is really ...... What a development I didn't expect! Looks like I'm underestimating you. ”
This was almost equivalent to admitting the words, which made Zhang Longqian frown: "Why? They are also people from the Dao Dharma Realm, why do you want to do this? ”
"Why?" Faintly repeating Zhang Longqian's question, the manipulator's smile was cold and emotionless, and he asked, "Then what are you here for?" ”
“…… Yin and yang eyes? ”
At this time, Zhang Longqian finally understood a little.
The so-called "man dies for money, birds die for food", no matter where it is, this applies to human beings. When a legendary secret treasure that is the number one in the world finally appears, even if they are also in the Dao Law Realm, they are not necessarily like Nangong Piao and Cang Yan, in order to avoid the thousand-year-old prophecy coming true, they are running around looking for Yin and Yang Eyes, and among these mages scattered across the country, the motive of "selfish desire" may account for a larger proportion.
It turns out that mages are just like mortals.
Once he knew this, Zhang Longqian felt a little interested.
Seeing through Zhang Longqian's thoughts at a glance, the controller snorted unhappily: "Don't compare me with you." ”
"What? Aren't you for the yin and yang eyes? ”
"It's not."
The unexpected simple answer made the controller appear more hypocritical, which made Zhang Longqian feel a burst of disgust in his heart, and directly said the inference that she hadn't had time to tell Cang Yan: "Isn't it? Then dare you say that you don't know where the yin and yang eyes are? ”
The manipulator didn't shy away from the question either, and replied in a cold voice, "No, I know. But I'm not interested in it. ”
The firm tone didn't seem to be a lie, which made Zhang Longqian finally frown with some suspicion: "Then what is your purpose?" Why control the Yokai in the scrap factory? Also, there was a strong smell of blood since the scrap factory last night, you ...... How many people were killed? ”
"Me?" As if hearing something funny, the controller smiled disdainfully, "I haven't even killed a single person, and I have drained the blood of twelve people with my hands, but it's all this monster." ”
The hustle and bustle with signs of decay everywhere took a small step forward, and the red one-eyed eyes were full of hollowness, without the slightest anger, and it was simply a puppet completely controlled by the manipulator.
He controlled the monster to kill a full twelve people, but said that he had not killed even a single person, such a strong statement made Zhang Long sink into the heart of a wave of anger, and wanted to punch the controller, but she was protected but she couldn't get close, so she could only hold back her anger and hammer her fist on the inner wall of the red lotus, which shook the lotus petals slightly, and reprimanded her loudly.
"Stop pretending! What exactly is your purpose? Why kill so many people? ”
Twelve people! It was overnight! In just one night, it took 12 lives and destroyed many families! And the murderer is not a monster that is fundamentally opposed to humans, but a mage who is supposed to protect mortals!
What is the purpose of making him disdain for the lives of his kind?
It seemed that Zhang Longqian's questioning was a little boring, and the controller hooked the corners of his mouth disdainfully: "If you have to say it, I have a similar purpose to you, but you are here to get the Yin and Yang Eye, but I am here for something else." As for human life......" Looking at the angry Zhang Longqian, he sneered, "It's just that the 'life blood' of twelve people can accomplish part of my purpose, and it can also attract you here, shouldn't you feel relieved that things that were originally worthless to me can be used so wastefully?" ”
"You're ......!"
The unconscious fists slammed on the red lotus again, Zhang Longqian clenched his teeth, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only stare fiercely at the controller who controlled Nangong Piao.
Moving his gaze from Zhang Longqian to the quiet Cang Yan, the controller said calmly: "Third Master Cang, you don't seem surprised. ”
Facing the manipulator's gaze, Cang Yan said indifferently: "What is your purpose, I'm not interested in knowing." There's only one thing I want to know. Taking a calm step towards the controller, the flames in Cang Yan's palm suddenly rose and wrapped around his entire arm, exuding a dangerous aura, but there was no change on his face, only the mechanical opening and closing of the lip flap.
"Where are the yin and yang eyes?"
"Why tell you?"
"Obligation."
"Huh!" The manipulator laughed loudly, "Do you think everyone is just like you, obeying the Dharma Temple?" ”
Cang Yan didn't answer, he just stepped forward again, and the tongue of fire wrapped around his arm suddenly rose up, exuding a high temperature that distorted the air, just like the two crimson snakes, and would pounce on the controller at any time.
Seeing Cang Yan's undisguised attack intent, the controller stretched out his finger and pointed at his neck, or Nangong Piao, and hooked the corners of his mouth: "Why, don't you care about this guy's life and death?" ”
Raising his eyes to look at the controller who was manipulating Nangong Piao's body and making a threatening gesture, Cang Yan's dark eyes were unwavering.
"Recovering the yin and yang eyes is the first priority."
The cold answer made Zhang Longqian stunned, and the controller also snorted coldly.
"You really live up to the name of the 'Cang family'!"
What's going on?
Looking at the back in front of him, which was gradually familiar, but suddenly became unfamiliar at this moment, Zhang Longqian, who slowly suppressed his anger, frowned in confusion.
Is this what Cang Yan would say? Cangyan ...... Is it such a ruthless person?
There seemed to be a cold and gentle fingertip touch on his arm, and Zhang Longqian slowly frowned.
No, it's not like that, he can't be like this. But why? Why would he say such things that disregard for the safety of his companions?
Maybe...... Is he deceiving the manipulator so that the manipulator can relax his vigilance and take the opportunity to rescue Nangong Piao, right?
But Cang Yan's next move shattered Zhang Longqian's self-consoling excuse.
The scorching flames rushed towards the controller without the slightest hesitation, and unfolded abruptly like ocean waves, covering the controlled Nangong Piao, the rotten hustle, and the two crimson snakes coiled at Nangong Piao's feet, like an amazing wave slapping down.
It looked like it was a corpse that had been dead for a long time, and rushed forward sensitively, fearlessly facing the flames, while the two crimson snakes shrank back and wrapped around Nangong Piao's legs, and at the same time, the controller slowly pressed the fingers on Nangong Piao's neck, and the ordinary fingers seemed to have become sharp blades, and slowly advanced towards the carotid artery without hesitation, and Nangong Piao's neck began to ooze blood.
"Cang Yan!"
A series of things that happened at this moment made Zhang Longqian cry out in disbelief, but Cang Yan didn't stop, and the flames he released became brighter.
How could it be...... Does he really want to give up Nangong Piao?
Could it be that to him, the meaning of Nangong Piao is just like what that bastard thinks, not worth mentioning?
In Zhang Longqian's eyes that slowly widened in disbelief, the controller who turned his fingers into sharp blades did not penetrate his fingers into Nangong Piao's carotid artery anymore, or rather, all his movements were frozen in an instant. This somewhat unexpected change made the controller move his gaze down slightly, looking at a bracelet worn on Nangong Piao's wrist.
It was a thin bracelet that had been hidden under Nangong Piao's sleeves, it looked like an ordinary jade bracelet, but it was a gorgeous red, and the color was like echoing the flames of Cangyan, which was changing slightly and incredibly.
Looking at the strange bracelet, the controller raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I see, no wonder you dare to be so unscrupulous."
