Chapter 135: Another Mysterious Man
After 87_87857 and Ye Qiu were separated, Xi Shuangshuang did not rehearse as she said, but after many twists and turns, she came to an extremely dark alley.
It seems to have been abandoned for years, the buildings on both sides are dilapidated, the windows are covered with dust, and it seems that no one has been here for a long time.
"I've met him as you say!" Xi Shuangshuang looked around and didn't find anyone there, but she still spoke out of thin air, as if talking to herself.
"Not bad!"
Suddenly, an old voice came out of nowhere, like a ghost voice echoing in this cold alley, if ordinary people heard it, they would definitely be frightened, but Xi Shuangshuang seemed to be commonplace, and there was no big surprise, very calm.
"I've done what you said, when will you let me go?" Xi Shuangshuang asked expressionlessly.
"What are you anxious about? When you finish what the old man ordered, I will naturally let you go! At this time, a dry palm stretched out from a dark corridor, and then an old man in a black robe slowly walked out of the darkness.
The old man's skin was dark and yellow, and his weather-beaten face was covered with the marks left by the years, and the uneven wrinkles seemed to be mottled marks on the wall.
In addition, the eyes with only sclera and no pupils are terrifying, although they are all white, but the glow emitted from them is like ghost eyes, which makes the temperature around them drop a little strangely.
Although it was not the first time Xi Shuangshuang had seen it, she still couldn't help but stand on end at this moment, and stepped back a little imperceptibly.
"How do I know how much you have for me to do? Maybe you're going to imprison me for the rest of your life! Xi Shuangshuang said vigilantly.
"Imprison you for the rest of your life? So what? Your life was originally given by old decay, so why not let you repay it for the rest of your life? The white-eyed old man snorted coldly and said disdainfully.
"You ......"
"But you don't deserve me, your mission is done, and you won't be of any use to me! What am I leaving you with me for? The white-eyed old man changed his words.
"Why did you choose me? I'm just a small person, can't you find someone else? Xi Shuangshuang said with a sad look on her face.
"Someone else? Others don't have that ability, and they don't have that life! Although the old man with white pupils had no pupils, it seemed that his seeping eyes could still see things, and he said expressionlessly "staring" at Xi Shuangshuang.
"You are born with a good life, you already have the potential to turn sentient beings upside down, the best chess piece in the world, and no one else wants this kind of life!"
Xi Shuangshuang's delicate body was shocked, her eyes showed a trace of despair, and she collapsed on the ground and muttered to herself: "It's praise again, why?" Why? Am I going to live in this darkness for the rest of my life? Then I might as well die! β
"Dead? You can't die! I didn't allow you to die, how could you die? The white-eyed old man sneered indifferently, very disdainful of Xi Shuangshuang's naΓ―ve thoughts.
Xi Shuangshuang's expression darkened, and she leaned against the wall weakly, as if she had lost hope in life: "I won't help you anymore, you can do whatever you want!" Anyway, it's a big deal that you're going to kill me! β
Seeing this, the white-eyed old man asked, "Don't you want to save your father?" β
"Father?" Xi Shuangshuang was desperate, and her eyes regained a little brightness: "That's right, I still have to save my father!" β
"If you are obedient, I will naturally let that kid from the Yang family let your father go, but you are disobedient...... Hum! I don't know what kind of torture your father was subjected to! The white-eyed old man seemed to be quite satisfied with Xi Shuangshuang's reaction, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
After Xi Shuangshuang heard this, she struggled with the dilemma, and the old man with white eyes was not in a hurry, waiting for Xi Shuangshuang to make a decision.
After a long time, Xi Shuangshuang finally made up her mind and stood up against the wall: "Say, what do you want me to do next?" β
"Excellent! You will get closer to Ye Qiu next, and it is best to make him completely defenseless against you! If you have the opportunity, you can also talk about what you have done over the years to win his sympathy! The white-eyed old man commanded.
Xi Shuangshuang hesitated, and did not immediately agree: "Can this work?" I don't think he's easy to approach! He made me feel like a ruthless emperor! β
"This is nature, with two strange things, and the potential to resist the Heavenly Dao, it is naturally more ruthless, but it is not difficult for you to get close to him!" The white-eyed old man shook his head and explained.
"He seems to be able to feel that I am the life of Bao Xi!" Xi Shuangshuang frowned, remembering Ye Qiu's analogy, and couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
"Huh? No way! When you were born, I deceived you with your birth date, even if he got your birth date, he couldn't calculate your fate for a while! Tell us about the specifics! The white-eyed old man's eyes narrowed, and the glow in his eyes became more and more weird.
Then Xi Shuangshuang described the events in the cafΓ© in detail, and after listening, the withered fingers of the white-eyed old man groped for the ring on his little thumb.
"I didn't expect this kid to feel so keen, and he can see some signs without a birthday!"
After a long time, the old man with white pupils muttered a few words, and then said to Xi Shuangshuang: "It's okay! He just had feelings, and he couldn't be sure, and by the time he found out, it was already too late! It doesn't make a difference in the big picture! β
"Hmmm! Good! β
Since the old man with white pupils said so, Xi Shuangshuang naturally has no opinion, anyway, she is just a chess piece, as long as she follows the path set by the chess player.
"If you can, it's better to let that kid have a deep affection for you, and it would be nice if you had some relationship!" Finally, the white-eyed old man gave some words again.
Xi Shuangshuang's pupils shrank, and her whole body tensed, could she still not escape such a fate? Women can only be reduced to men's playthings in the end?
"What? Don't want to? The white-eyed old man was imposing and asked rhetorically.
"No, no!" Xi Shuangshuang's originally slightly white and tender face became more and more pale at this time, and she was forced to hold on.
"Humph! I can see if you want it or not! Don't think I'm blind old man! My heart is bright! The white-eyed old man snorted coldly, and then said: "If you can spend the night with him, I will let you go the next day, and your father will be safe and sound!" Measure it for yourself! β
After finishing speaking, the white-eyed old man waved his black robe, turned around and walked into the darkness again, and there was no more sound.
Xi Shuangshuang was stunned for a long time, thinking back to what the old man with white pupils said when he left, and after a long time, he finally made up his mind, clenched his fist, bit his lip stubbornly, and turned around and walked out of this cold alley, the slightly weak and thin figure was extremely resolute at this time
