Chapter 55: Maid Recruitment
In this otherworldly world, ghosts are hard to induce fear.
So it's the atmosphere that evokes fear.
All the antiquities swirled in mid-air, as if delicate skinned dolls lined up to dance, singing bloody ballads.
Ye Mingyu clenched his staff.
The Magic Book emblem disappeared in a flash, and three rays of light flashed and disappeared on the two of them for a moment.
[Static walking].
[Mana Shield].
And most importantly, [Cat's Peep], which belongs to the night vision class of spells.
The pupils of the two were stained with a layer of green, as if chopsticks pierced through the papyrus, and their eyes pierced through the darkness of the room.
Ye Mingyu raised his hand and pointed upward.
It means the second floor.
Yeyezi nodded nervously, followed Ye Mingyu, and walked up the spiral staircase.
The cold wind of the winter night squeezed in through the window at the top of the staircase, and it was pitch black outside, and there was no light inside.
But with the blessing of the spell, a vague outline can be faintly found.
It's like what a thermal imager sees.
The silhouette is a kneeling posture with his head bowed, and beneath him is an eerie seven-pointed star circle, candles lit on the seven horns, and incantations like tadpoles swimming on either side of the outer ring.
Some kind of ancient prayer floats in the air.
The air stagnates and turns into a swamp.
The surrounding objects, whether it is doors and windows, tables and chairs, are quiet and become one with the space.
Suddenly, the guy seemed to sense the comer's movement and slowly turned his head.
"What the hellβ"
"Helpβ"
Two shrill shouts pierced the room.
Ye Mingyu didn't react, the two screams were not from him, and he looked around with a confused expression.
Seeing the silhouette hiding in the corner of the wall and shivering, Yeyezi was so frightened that she ran behind her.
Ye Mingyu took two steps closer to the silhouette.
"Don't come here, I'm going to call if you come here again! Warning you, I'm but... But it's amazing! β
The voice......
It's familiar.
"Go away, go away... Hurry up and get away! Don't come here, I'm not afraid of you... Small fireballs! β
Suddenly, a burst of flame lit up Ye Mingyu's vision.
A surging wave of heat slammed into the magic shield, and cracks emerged, eventually exploding with a thud.
With the help of these two momentary lights, Ye Mingyu also saw the true face of the "ghost thing".
"Lu Xiaoxi? Why are you here? β
"Go away! Draw closer to me...... Ay? β
The illumination light cluster emerged from the top of the staff, and in the spreading light, Lu Xiaoxihua's expression froze, and his mouth opened wide in shock.
......
The illuminated light cluster is suspended under the ceiling.
Lu Xiaoxi sobbed and cried about his experience:
"I originally wanted to work part-time, at first I went to the restaurant as an intern waiter, but I always put the dishes in the faces of the guests, so I was fired, and then I heard that moving bricks is very profitable, so I wanted to earn living expenses, but I couldn't move at all, I couldn't afford to rent a house, so I had to live here......"
"I have deep sympathy for your experience."
It's really expected and reasonable.
Would you like to help?
Acquaintance is fate, not to mention that the other party is still a cute girl with online appearance.
Coincidentally, Ye Mingyu also has a job on hand:
"I said, do you want Lu Xiaoxi to be a maid?"
"Maid?" Ye Yezi took the first step to express his shock, "When did you have this kind of habit, obviously your little yellow book doesn't have ......"
"Silence."
Ye Mingyu's face was like frost, and he activated the power of the contract.
Suddenly there was only the sound of "hmm" in the room, and yeseko pressed her mouth with her own hands, twisting and twisting and unable to break free.
This is the legendary four-wheeled maggot.......
"Little Yellow Book?"
is as pure as Lu Xiaoxi, and he doesn't understand the meaning of this word at all.
"It's a book with a yellow cover, which is generally related to biology, don't mention this, do you want to be a maid?"
"No, I'm clumsy......" Lu Xiaoxi shook his head.
Yes, that's it, it's the best!
Ye Mingyu had long discovered that Lu Xiaoxi seemed to have the talent to mess things up, and this talent was like a passive skill, always playing a role.
In the eyes of others, this passive skill may be a waste.
But in Ye Mingyu's eyes, it is to turn waste into treasure.
Just recruit it as an entourage.
Next, Lu Xiaoxi can replace himself and participate in the investigation of those clues, so as to mess things up.
As for why a maid, and not an assistant?
This is Ye Mingyu's personal interest.
Gentlemen understand, it's not worth mentioning.
"It's okay to be stupid, you have to exercise for everything," Ye Mingyu showed a gold medal smile, "And it's not that I pay the salary, the temple family has a big business, and this kind of expense will help me reimburse, even if you don't work with the money." β
Lu Xiaoxi never expected such a good thing, and was a little hesitant:
"But this is not in accordance with our teachings......"
Ye Mingyu said in his heart, which god has so many things? It's a real nuisance.
On the surface, he was still amiable, and tried to persuade him:
"Be flexible, know how to be flexible, this is the sacrifice you must make in order to find the Son of God!"
Lu Xiaoxi originally wanted to continue to be hypocritical.
But suddenly my stomach growled.
She recalled the ups and downs of the recent period, and her heart felt sour.
In the Apocalypse Church, as the youngest student of the mentor, he has been pampered by many senior brothers and sisters, where has he suffered from this?
If it weren't for her strong faith, she wouldn't have been able to hold on a long time ago.
Lu Xiaoxi made up his mind, knelt on the ground, and lowered his head:
"Thank you for your help, I will definitely repay this kindness!"
......
Lu Xiaoxi simply packed up his things and took out a rag to wipe off the lines of the circle.
"Konishi, what is this circle for?"
"For prayer, to convey the message to our gods."
Ye Yezi nodded thoughtfully: "I see, I heard that there are many magic circles that will sacrifice the life of the snake......"
"Snakes? What are you talking about? Lu Xiaoxi looked up in confusion.
Ye Mingyu and Ye Yezi glanced at each other.
Suddenly, there was a conversation downstairs.
Ye Mingyu quickly extinguished the faint light source.
"Skull, are you sure you can contact the monarch in this way? How I feel unreliable. β
"Shut up, Lichon, I learned this circle from the Undead Knight, it's very useful, wait, there are too few snakes, catch some more."
"Okay, is that enough? Why do we come here in the middle of the night? I heard that this neighborhood is haunted, and it's so terrifying. β
"Afraid of what? We're undead, and it's not certain who scares whom! β
"Clearly, tonight is the last time, you have to get in touch, skeleton, you help look around, I'll deliver magic, skeleton, what are you looking at?"
There was silence.
Ye Mingyu and Ye Yezi approached the window and looked towards the courtyard.
The [Cat's Peeping] spell hadn't worked yet, and their eyes were still green.
The suspicious eyes are like ghost fires, especially clear in the dark.
"There, on the second floor, small... Little Demon ......"
", hell, run!"
"Where's the circle?"
"Leave it alone!"
Ye Mingyu's heart moved, and he directly smashed the window, stacked the BUFF and jumped out.
"Chase!"
Yayezi followed.
