Chapter 201: Secret Deliberation
"Lowering the head is also a kind of witchcraft, a bit similar to Gu poison control, but it is very different from Gu poison, the general Gu poison needs Gu worms and a host, so as to build a medium, so that Gu worms can get sufficient water and nutrients in the host body to maintain a normal life. And lowering the head, this is the use of blank substance, add a little bit of anything related to the other person, you can control the other party through this medium. Qing Manro's face was serious, and he slowly answered the question.
"You mean, this scarecrow that Xun Xu picked up is the medium controlled by the other party?" Ji Yunxiao quickly understood, "It's different from ordinary witchcraft, if it's ordinary witchcraft, the greatest ability, that is, through spells and formulas, to control others to achieve the goals you want, but this is all limited by time and space, and even material, and those that are out of the basics, there is no medium at all." ”
"You're right." Qing Manluo knew that she was also the first national teacher of Cangyun Country before, and she was more aware of these things than ordinary people.
Gongsun Yu didn't seem to understand it, but he quickly found a suspicious clue from Ji Yunxiao's words, "If this scarecrow is really like you say, then who put it in the kitchen?" You can't end up here for no reason, right? ”
"That's a good question, who is so lacking in virtue and putting such a vicious thing here?" Qing Manluo then agreed, and like Gongsun Yu, he couldn't think of the reason.
However, Ji Yunxiao frowned tightly, "I'm more worried about who is it controlling this thing?" ”
She immediately asked the main question, and immediately drew the attention of the two of them.
Qing Manluo's eyes twitched, and he became serious, "You're right, I obviously sensed the breath of lowering my head on this scarecrow just now, which means that someone cast a spell on it, if it didn't come here by itself, then someone deliberately put it in the kitchen, more likely, it was that person who hid here, just to facilitate the nearby control of people, but he seemed to have made a little mistake, didn't expect us to use this kitchen, and found this thing." ”
"What do you mean by proximity control?" Ji Yun paused with a smile, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
"Are you saying that the man is controlling one of us to achieve his ends?" Gongsun Yu quickly reflected and hurriedly asked for the exit.
Ji Yunxiao also found this consciously, and looked at Qing Manluo seriously, but she didn't seem to be able to make up her mind.
"I don't know this, maybe the other party's trick has succeeded, or maybe we discovered this thing before it was implemented."
"Isn't there a way to try it?" If the latter is okay, if it really becomes what she said earlier, there is a controlled person mixed in here, no matter how you think about it, it is a little cautious, after all, the other party is in the dark, and I don't know what means that person will suddenly resort to!
Under the expectant gaze of Gongsun Yu, Qing Manluo pinched her chin with her fingers and thought about it seriously, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she snapped her fingers beautifully: "There is!" ”
"What's the solution?" Gongsun Yu's face was happy.
But seeing Qing Manluo smiled unhurriedly, "Although the technique of lowering the head is easy to use, there is a big weakness, that is, every time you control it for a period of time, the effect of the spell will weaken a lot, and in a day, there may be a period of time, you can't dominate the puppet at all." ”
The implication is that we can observe all the people here
During that time, there was too much difference in personality between weekdays and days, is it okay? ”
"Yes!"
"Wouldn't that be too dangerous?" After all, the other party is secretly controlled, and the people who are at the mercy are all within them, in case they are detected by the other party, when the other party is ruthless, they don't know what kind of thing they will do!
"You can rest assured of that." Qing Manluo didn't pay much attention to it at all, but his tone was extremely relaxed, interrupting her.
Ji Yunxiao glanced at her, and a trace of doubt flashed in his heart: "Why?" ”
"Because something like a lower head, unless it is controlled nearby, if it is too far away, the other party can only control it through the medium on the other side, if I guess correctly, there must be a scarecrow in that person's hand."
"I don't understand what you said, even if that person has a scarecrow in his hand to control this side, then why wouldn't he notice the anomaly that appeared here?" Gongsun Yu asked.
Qing Manroe smiled, picked up the little scarecrow on the table, and raised it in front of him, "Look! Because its expression is always like this, like this, like this! As she spoke, she delicately posed a few funny poses for the scarecrow.
She said that she was right, the scarecrow is not like an ordinary real person, no matter how skillful he is, he will not have the same real and impressive expression as a real person.
It's no wonder that she just replied with such certainty that everyone was reassured.
"Well, now that this is clear, it is imperative to investigate that person well. That's right...... Maybe you can find a clue in this scarecrow. Qing Manluo took it in his hand and looked up and down, but Ji Yunxiao, who was still sharp-eyed, first found a trace of suspicion.
"Don't you think its head seems a little too big?"
As he said this, both of them noticed this, and Qing Manluo rubbed his fingers on it.
Suddenly, a black piece of cloth popped out of it and nodded.
Qing Manluo raised his head and saw the joy that also shone in Gongsun Yu's eyes, and he carefully pulled out the things very wet.
"This ......" Qing Manluo stared at the black thing in his hand, a little unresponsive.
"It's a piece of gauze." When Gongsun Yu was in Gongsun Mansion, he had always been very particular about dressing, so he was very wet and sensitive to the piece of fabric in Qing Manluo's hand, and suddenly changed its texture, "This piece of black yarn looks very special, and the texture to the touch is also good, it should be a high-quality material, and the workmanship is also very exquisite. ”
"Water embroidery?" Ji Yun laughed startled, his eyes drooped, and he looked at the black gauze in Qing Manluo's hand. "Are you sure you read that right?"
"Yunxiao, although I am not as good as you in terms of strategy and martial arts, but when it comes to judging the clothing, you will definitely not surpass me." Gongsun Yu didn't brag about this, let alone her, even in the whole world, he was inferior to him in this regard, after all, he was the eldest son of the head of the four major families!
Why is the Gongsun family the head of the four major families? …… People rely on industrial management!
In the Gongsun family, the world operates various industries and businesses, and the two most powerful of them are the navigation industry and the silk village!
Ji Yunxiao also seemed to quickly react to his identity, and looked at the material seriously, and suddenly, her eyes flickered, and she quickly calmed down again.
"What's wrong with the water embroidery?" Why are these two people obedient on their expressions?
"Water embroidery is a unique embroidery method in the south of the Yangtze River, whether it is workmanship or embroidered patterns, it can be regarded as the best in all embroidery workshops."
"What does that mean?" At most, it's just a boast of the texture of this piece of black yarn, as for the two of them reacting so much?
Gongsun Yu shook his head, continued what he said just now, and continued: "Because the water embroidery is special, so before Yunjin ascended the throne, that is, when Emperor Yun was still in power, this embroidery method has been included in the palace, and all the handicrafts made by the water embroidery method must be destroyed, and since then, the water embroidery has almost become a symbol of the royal family." ”
"Ahh I see, you mean, this piece of black gauze is from the palace? ”
"Not bad......"
"Oh, that's easy, as long as we know who we are in the palace and see who is in the palace, ......it's good," Qing Manluo said, her voice hoarse, because she suddenly realized a very serious problem.
There are two people here, she and Gongsun Yu, and almost all the remaining people are people who have stayed in the palace, and they are all inextricably linked to the palace.
So I finally had a little eyebrows, and now it was suddenly vetoed, and there is no difference between knowing and not knowing, in the end, it's not just empty joy! Ay......
"What are you doing with your head down?" Gongsun Yu looked at her frustrated expression amusedly.
"Do you think I can still laugh now? …… Tsk, work for nothing......"
"Actually, you can't say that." Gongsun Yu was very optimistic, with a clear and moist smile on his face.
"So what do you say? It won't make her laugh, will it? ”
"At least, the two of us are not suspicious." Gongsun Yu quickly added the next sentence.
"Huh...... What a cold joke......" The corners of her mouth twitched symbolically, and her smiling expression looked wet and weird.
Xiao Xunxu, who had been silent from the beginning, couldn't help but feel tired, his little arms were propped up on the stone table, and his chin was held up steadily.
"It's late, tonight, rest early, wait until something happens, tomorrow, for tonight's events, I think it's best for as few people to know as possible, so as not to change on the way, something unexpected . As for the rest, let's observe it secretly. Ji Yun said with a smile and pushed Xiao Xunxu who was sitting next to him.
"Hmm, mother? …… Are you all done? Xiao Xunxu was drowsy, his eyelids couldn't be opened, and it seemed that he couldn't walk back by himself.
"Well, I've already said it, my mother will take you back to sleep." Ji Yun smiled and simply bent down and hugged his little body.
The little guy just muttered in the crook of her arm, and soon quieted down, pouting, and two little paws on Ji Yunxiao's shoulders, as if sleeping soundly.
"Don't look at it, everyone is gone." The faint voice called Gongsun Yu's mind back, and he smiled bitterly in his heart and did not speak.
"Hey, sometimes, I really don't understand you, just say before, when Di Jiushu was away, you liked people, but you always hesitated."
"At that time, I didn't know she was a woman...... "If he had known her identity earlier, maybe today might have been a different story, right?"
"Excuses! True love knows no age and gender, not to mention that she was a man at that time, even if she is a man in her seventies or eighties and has lost her teeth, as long as you like it, you can completely let go of it. As long as you feel like you've found the right one, nothing else is a problem! ”
