Chapter 9: Are You Coming to Clean Up Me?

There was a suggestive and terrifying scene around, and the sound of strange footsteps suddenly came from the stairs that were still empty when they just walked by, and this scene was changed to an ordinary person who was not mentally prepared, and I am afraid that he was already scared and cried.

Yu fortunately turned around for a while, Xu Shu just stopped behind him, the slightly shorter size than him did not affect this person's temperament and calm feeling at all, half a mask and not bright light made this person slightly gloomy, and his body was thin.

The mask was put on Xu Shu's face as he walked over, and Yu Xing glanced at the table of the Eight Immortals again, the mask on the table just now had turned into a very real human head, and the black hair was slimy, just like those black lumps knotted under the wind chimes, blocking most of the swollen and terrifying face.

If he had been bewitched by that dark spell just now, and reached out to pick up this thing...... Yu Xing had a hunch that he would be haunted by it for a long time.

"Your little jumping frog is dirty." The first thing Xu Shu said when he stood up was not to say hello or explain, but to glance past Yu Xing at the table, and look at the little jumping frog that was soaked in blood and made a comment.

Yu Xing was not sorry at all: "No, it's your little jumping frog." ”

Xu Shu glanced at him, stretched out his hand and put away the human head on the table, judging from the appearance of the human head disappearing after he touched his hand, Yu Xing knew that this human head was Xu Shu's sacrifice.

At the same time as the human head disappeared, the surrounding blood fountains, bloody handprints, crazy bells, cobweb dust, and cries hidden in the wind were all hidden, and the air suddenly became clear, restoring the breeze of the small building that the Wind Whispering Pavilion should have.

"Are you not afraid of this kind of scene, or did you guess that it was an illusion?" Xu Shu's dark brown eyes stared at the tip of Yu Xing's nose, and he didn't seem to like to look at people.

Yu Xing looked at the other party with a smile, and put his hands in the pockets of his down jacket: "Call me over, and greet me with such a frightening scene, don't you plan to explain first?" No matter what you think, it's not you who should be asked now, but me, who is hurting my heart. ”

Hearing his words, Xu Shu raised his gaze, reluctantly observed his face, and unabashedly doubted the matter of "wounded soul" in his heart.

However, he felt that Yu Xing had a point, so he said, "Excuse me, I called you here to confirm one thing." ”

Yu Xing didn't ask what it was: "Is it confirmed now?" ”

"No, so further confirmation is needed."

Xu Shu seems to be like this when he talks to anyone, which makes people feel that his attitude is very serious, but it is not salty or light, a little cold and formulaic, just like who has sucked his emotions away.

For example, anyone who hears this sentence will subconsciously follow his non-threatening tone to think, how else to confirm it?

But the fact is that before Xu Shu's words fell, Yu Xing heard a slight sound of breaking wind from the back of his head, with a smile in his eyes, and on one side of his body, he could dodge the arrows that were shot, the arrows flew by his hair, and his face was cut by the wind.

After a quick glance, Yu Xing only felt that the black gas on the arrow was permeated, as if there was a grimace lingering on it, and the next moment, the arrow [buzzed-] nailed to the wooden column, and the tail of the arrow trembled and made a buzzing sound.

At the same time, the target was missed, and the grimace on the arrow screamed and dissipated into the air.

"It's too fierce." Yu Xing rubbed his face, I don't know if he was talking about arrows or people, the tails of his eyes were slightly picked, and others couldn't see that he was angry, "It's worthy of being a big guy, and the sacrificial attack is very strong." But is the big guy going to bully me like this? ”

"......" Xu Shu didn't answer, but frowned, and quickly stretched out, "Your reaction speed is really not like a human, the moment you dodged just now, the ghost qi in your body was very obvious, you should be a demon mixed with humans." ”

"Oh?" Yu Xing's expression did not change, looking at this person, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly.

Why did someone always remind him that he wasn't a normal human being?

Immortality, automatic healing after injury, these monster-like characteristics have indeed helped him a lot in the past years, but the ensuing alienation of thinking, negative emotions, and loss of personality have also made him do a lot of regretful things.

Especially when he first came out of the glassware, his mind was full of white coats pointing at him, and he didn't treat him as a human at all in his language, but as a thing that could be experimented with at will, and that kind of look that looked different from other species once made him fall into serious self-doubt.

He will think that he has become a dirty thing, inferior to humans.

Even though he is much calmer about this matter now, he is still a little unhappy when he is attacked twice by the sacrifice as soon as they meet, and he is greeted with the phrase "You are not like a human".

Yu Xing thought to himself, this Xu Shu has a really strong perception, especially if he can step on thunder, and step on one accurate.

So he laughed: "What did I do to make you have this delusion?" ”

Xu Shu realized the obscurity in his tone, turned around and pulled the arrow out of the wall, his pale fingers were distinctly jointed, and after putting the arrow back into the mask, he said seriously:

"I noticed you last night, the aura of death in your body is so strong that it can't be seen in a living person, and even Xu Xiangyu can't compare to you. But...... It's very vague, so obscure that others can't see it, and the bone ruler made by Luo Yan doesn't react to you at all. ”

"But I can see, my eyes," he pointed to himself, "and you look to me like a demon from hell." ”

Do you have special abilities...... Yu Xing glanced at Xu Shu's eyes, the empty dark brown eyes were like a pair of black holes of different colors, and there was not a pool of stagnant water in them, but some kind of misfortune was tumbling.

After staring at it for a long time, he even felt that the color of Xu Shu's eyes was not naturally formed, but the traces left after the blood clotted and dried up.

"Your eyes can't look long, and it's easy to get caught in the nightmare." Yu Xing bluntly expressed his feelings after watching the view, then looked away and picked up the topic just now, "You think I'm an evil ghost, and then what?" You're here to clean up on me? ”

"The fact that an evil ghost can get into the gathering of the three great families shows that it is strong enough to blend in with the human race without any mistakes." Xu Shu looked at him, "Your expressions and movements are indeed flawless, can I touch your hand?" ”

Yu Xing: "Please?" ”

So Xu Shu unceremoniously put his hand into Yu Xing's pocket, pinched Yu Xing's palm, and then immediately pulled it out, and said: "The skin feels no different from a living person, even the temperature is ...... You're probably stronger than I thought. ”

Most of the demons are corpses, and the weakest demons are deformed and terrifying, and the stronger the demons, the closer they are to the appearance of the living.

Only when attacking, will the hideous side be revealed.

Many powerful demons can not be seen from ordinary people, but there will always be flaws in details, such as body temperature, pupils, expressions, hair, and nails.

And Yu Xing, in Xu Shu's eyes, is probably a super terrifying evil ghost who has no flaws in all of the above.

Xu Shu's gaze paused on Yu Xing's overly white complexion: "Human beings are always at a disadvantage in front of ghosts, even with the help of deduction rules, they can only escape and survive under the hands of ghosts under certain conditions, and a very few rules can kill ghosts." And you're mixed in the real world, even if you're bound by the rules, it's not something I can clean up. ”

Yu Xing: Tsk, then you dare to come up and make me angry? Temptation in a fantasy way?

He was curious about the young man who could see the rich curse aura on his bodyβ€”curses are a type of ghosts, so curse breaths are also a type of ghost energyβ€”and reminded, "I'm here with the Zhao family. ”

The implication is that if he is determined to be a ghost, how can the Zhao family explain it? Under the clear rule that ghosts cannot be carried in the party, blatantly breached the contract and brought him in?

Or does Xu Shu think that there is no one in the entire Zhao family who can recognize his ghost identity?

After Xu Shu "revealed" Yu Xing's identity, not only did he not show hostility, but he was faintly happy: "I saw it, you came with Zhao Mou, I have heard of him and have been in contact with him, he gives me the feeling that he is not ambitious, and his sense of belonging to the family is not strong, and he may break the rules and bring you in for his own interests." ”

"Still?" Yu Xing simply leaned back, leaned against the corner of the table, and rested lazily.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I won't say anything. Xu Shu didn't analyze it again, his empty eyes seemed to be condensed for another moment, and then he fluttered for a while, "I heard that your name is Yu Xing, I have no malicious intent, I don't want to upset you, and I won't tell others about it, I just want to get in touch with you, I have a proposal." ”

Yu Xing raised his eyebrows, always feeling that what Xu Shu said next was probably one of the real purposes of the other party's appointment with him.

"I'm one of the few people who have similar abilities to ghosts, and I'm the best among them." Xu Shu praised himself first, but it was not the kind of praise that was proud and complacent, but it seemed to be selling himself, and even the eyebrows and eyes that were exposed were full of seriousness, "I'm about to be promoted to the despair level, and I still have one more ...... Contract ghosts. ”

"I can give you what Zhao Mou gave you, my strength is stronger than his, and so are my connections."

The wind blew without warning, and the wind chimes outside the wall swayed, mixed with these words and merged into Yu Xing's ears.

The concept of contract ghosts is very familiar to Yu Xing, because Yiqing is.

But now, he seems to have been invited by this young man who mistakenly thought he was a powerful demon?

Kid, I suddenly think you're a little stupid.

Yu Xing had the heart to get some information from Xu Shu, but now this situation is obviously not suitable for continuing to talk, although this person is very stupid and cute, but Qiang is also true, there is really a conflict, he is equivalent to offending the late-night guild and the Xu family at the same time, and it will always bring a lot of unnecessary trouble.

What's more, Xu Shu's words...... It's good to listen to half and throw half away, unless his brain is short-circuited, it is impossible to believe it all.

He looked at Xu Shu, who was selling himself sincerely, and tilted his head: "You guessed wrong, I'm really just a budding newcomer, big guy, please let go." ”

Xu Shu was silent, as if thinking for a while, and then shook his head: "I haven't missed it in distinguishing between people and ghosts. ”

Yu Xing: "......" is quite confident.

He reminded: "I am also a deducer, have you ever seen a demon become a deducer? ”

This time, Xu Shu was silent for a little longer, and after a while, he reached out and pressed his mask: "I haven't seen it before, but now I have seen it." You're right, it's my lack of consideration, and if you're a deducer, ordinary contracts may not work for you. ”

Yu Xing almost wanted to applaud him.

If it is acted, it can be said that Xu Shu's acting skills are good and very dedicated.

If it wasn't acted, it could only show that Xu Shu was really confident in his abilities, and would rather believe that Yu Xing rejected him because he didn't want to be his contract ghost, and he didn't believe that he had made a mistake in judgment.

In his concept, he really didn't think that he could admit his mistakes.

Xu Shu took a few steps back and tilted his head slightly: "I'm sorry, when I find a contract format that can accommodate this kind of rule, I'll fight for you." I was offended today, but I finally met a ghost creature that blended perfectly into humanity and didn't want to give up. ”

At this point, although Yu Xing didn't quite know why he was looking for the contract format, he could guess that this should be something that could only be accessed by the mourning level, but no matter what, he felt that it was impossible for Xu Shu to find a way to turn his "evil ghost" from a deducer into a contract ghost.

Then let him go, anyway, I can't find it, what is the purpose of the other party, it will eventually surface with the passage of time.

"If the big guy insists on thinking so, I can't help it." Yu Xing sighed, "Can I go now?" ”

He waved his hand to leave, but Xu Shu didn't stop him, but picked up the little jumping frog on the table that was not polluted by anything, and sat there thinking to himself.

Yu Xing left the Wind Whispering Pavilion and walked into the plum garden, feeling the cold wind on his face, and the trace of surprise in his heart faded.

As he walked towards the winery, which was crowded with people, he took the [Dream of Photography] out of the panel.

Before he came, he guessed that the person who asked him about him might be Xu Shu who had inexplicably watched him for a while at the exchange meeting last night, and Xu Shu had been dealing with ghosts all year round, and he heard that he had a strong acuity, and he was worried that close contact would make Yiqing be discovered, so he put the dagger in before stepping into the vicinity of the plum garden.

"How?" Yiqing didn't come out, and from inside the dagger came a voice that only Yu Xing could hear.

"There are many suspicions, and the motives are suspicious." Yu Xing said leisurely, "It's interesting. ”

Yiqing said warmly: "Interesting? Let me hear it too. ”

Yu Xing summed up what happened just now in a few words, and then smiled at the corner of his mouth: "I can't understand it...... He needs a powerful demon, wouldn't it be better to find it in the deduction? ”

"I live in the real world, which involves more, but he doesn't investigate my background, let alone the exact relationship between me and the Zhao family, he came to me rashly, and in the end he couldn't give me a contract that could be used."

A few strangely dressed Luo family members walked up, and they seemed to be talking about something happy, and their voices were quite loud.

Yu Xing politely avoided it, and waited until the people were far away, and then he continued: "Heh, deducers, especially experienced detractors who have experienced many scenes, do not say that they do not leak, and they should always be fully prepared. ”

"Xu Shu gave me the feeling that he made up such an excuse just to see me, maybe what he said was not completely false, but this is definitely not all the reason why he asked me over."

He climbed a few steps and turned around a place planted with thin bamboos: "Obviously, there are more important factors that he has hidden under the appearance that he does not like to play tricks. ”

"Now I wonder what drove him to do this, at the cost of pretending to be stupid to make me believe him?"

Yiqing replied that the dagger hanging on Yu Xing's waist trembled slightly: "It turns out that his arrangement didn't work at all, you should have thought of it." ”

Yu Xing had already seen the winery, there were quite a lot of people there, no matter what age they were, they always had little resistance to good wine: "No, it's not completely useless, at least if he wants me to be curious about him, then he has succeeded in this." ”

Yiqing was quiet for two seconds: "This person should not have much contact." ”

"It's true that he didn't show any malice, and even wanted to befriend me because I was a 'demon', but this is all superficial things, and even the motives are being concealed, and I don't know what his real attitude is, maybe he is full of malice towards me." Yu Xing's tone was relaxed, but the words he said were not so relaxed.

He had already approached the winery, and if he was not mistaken, many of the Zhao family were here, including Zhao Jiaming, who had played cards with Zhao Yingying before.

The communication with Yiqing stopped.
