Chapter 147: Impostor

Xu Yongzhi looked at the spy tied up in the barracks.

The appearance of this spy is very distinctive:

The facial features are extremely ordinary, particularly flat, and the face is not moving.

When you see such a face, you will only sigh, and there is no "vividness" at all.

You don't hate it, you don't feel ugly, you just feel that it makes you can't lift your spirits, and you can't even feel disgusted.

Xu Yongzhi seemed to have a feeling suddenly, which was consistent with a certain feeling of necromancy.

And when this face speaks, the sound is like metal rubbing, and looking at such a face speaking, you will feel a kind of boredom - like the noise on a white screen.

"Do you really want to know?" The spy said in this nasty voice.

Xu Yong's heart moved, and he remembered the legend of the "Faceling".

He took two quick steps, grabbed a crossbow arrow, aimed it at the spy's collarbone, and stabbed it hard.

The bolt pierced the spy's collarbone in one fell swoop, and dark black blood flowed down the wound.

Duan Meimei jumped up all of a sudden:

"Don't torture him like that!"

Our girl Duan always thinks of kindness first.

But she immediately saw the color of the blood.

It's exactly the same blood as the clay man who hurt her.

This is not the blood of ordinary people.

Xu Yongzhi didn't torture him, he was wearing this person, no, I don't know if he is still human, the pipa bone of this thing.

The spy snorted: "Hahaha, good Xu Jin, it's this seat that underestimates you." ”

"Amori, take the chain. Dechen, send someone to take my order to invite an uncle. Xu Yongzhi commanded.

Duan Zishou hurriedly went out to get the chain, and after a while, he took the chain over and helped Xu Yongzhi wear the treacherous pipa bone, and Xu Yongzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After another cup of tea, Huo Yizun rushed to the barracks, and when he entered the house, he was taken aback when he saw the spy tied up.

He hurriedly sealed the eyes, nose, and ears of the spy before he spoke.

"My lord, where did you get this guy from?" Huo Yizun lowered his voice and asked.

"He infiltrated my barracks and spread rumors, almost causing a mutiny," Xu Yongzhi said, "Fortunately, the lady had a thought and locked up all the people in the camp, and I was able to take him." ”

"I'm afraid that this thing will not be good." Huo Yizun said.

"This thing?" Duan Zishou looked at the spy, "No matter how you look at it, it's not a thing, although it's a little ugly, but it should be a person." ”

"How do you know it's a person?" Crisp looked at him and said.

"If you have eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth and ears, facial features and seven orifices, you should be a human being." Duan Zishou said.

"That's not right, a monkey also has five senses and seven senses, but it's not human." Crisp said.

"He has five senses and seven tricks, but he has no hair, so he should be a human being." Duan Zishou said again.

"No," Ah Crisp sniffed the spy, "it's not really a human smell, but an ancient earth smell, Dad, what the hell is it?" ”

Huo Yizun's face was solemn: "Ah Crisp, your judgment is very accurate, it is not a person." ”

He turned to Xu Yongzhi: "My lord, this guy is a non-human. ”

"Flyer?" Duan Zishou looked at the spy, "He has no wings, no feathers, and no cloak, how can he fly?" ”

"It's not that flying man, Ah Shou," Xu Yongzhi said, "No, it means negative, this guy looks like a human, but not a human." ”

"Your Excellency is right," Huo Yizun explained to everyone, "This is one of the seven intelligent creatures that can speak, but they are not human, and we wizards generally call it faceless. ”

"Faceless?" Li Shoujie was full of curiosity, "No wonder it looks like a tabula rasa." ”

"Li Gongzi, do you think this face has a particularly boring, even lazy feeling?" Huo Yizun asked Li Shoujie.

"Yes, yes, it's very obvious!" Li Shoujie said.

"Faceless is a very ancient non-human, and the source of their power is the legendary Divine Beast Emperor Jiang." Huo Yizun said.

Li Shoujie had heard of the name: "Dijiang? The Book of Mountains and Seas says that it is a bird with no facial features and like a cloth pocket? ”

"There is a problem with the record of that book, Dijiang is more like a big snake without facial features, it is actually Chaos, that is, the giant god that existed before Pangu opened the world."

"In the legend, it was the two gods who chiseled the eyebrows, nose, mouth, and ears of Chaos, and Chaos died because of this, but because of his death, time and space were able to appear." Huo Yizun said.

"Did it happen before the time appeared......" Duan Meimei was actually a little fascinated.

"After Chaos died, its corpse was scattered into many kinds of mythical beasts or non-humans, some of which had the original attributes of Chaos, such as Faceless, its facial features were almost completely featureless, but it was able to learn and imitate all kinds of people." Huo Yizun said.

"Most of the faceless ones are harmless guys, some are naughty, they will harass and scare humans, humans can't understand it, so they blame foxes, in fact, many of them are faceless, and some depraved wizards will collude with faceless." Huo Yizun said.

"Wizards with Faceless? What's in it for them to be around such monsters? Duan Meimei asked.

"Hey, it's a shame to say, but think about it, which person you like, and you can't get her, now go and grab a faceless and let it be your slave, you can try to imitate that person, and finally you can even fake the real, for many wizards, it's still tempting." Huo Yizun said.

"After all, it's still a love word." Li Shoujie sighed.

"Humans really can't think of it." Ah Crisp also sighed and said.

"After Faceless came into contact with wizards, he gradually became stronger, some Faceless will break free from the control of wizards, and some will be sent out by evil wizards to do bad things." Huo Yizun said.

"Will they be discovered?" Duan Meimei asked.

"At the beginning of imitating humans, Faceless is very clumsy, childish in speaking and acting, but then gradually becomes strict and powerfulβ€”when they can replace the person being imitated, they will kill their own master, take the identity of that person, take over that person's wealth, wife, slaves, army...... Even, the country ......," Huo Yizun said.

"It's terrible," Duan Meimei muttered, and she felt sick to the thought that this monster might turn into Xu Yongzhi and live by herself.

"It seems to have come with a mission this time, and the final target should be the adult, it seems to be ready to pick Li Gongzi to start this time and become Li Gongzi, which is a smart idea." Huo Yizun said.

"Why is it a smart idea to become Brother Li?" Duan Zishou asked.

"It can't choose people with special skills, for example, if it wants to replace me, it will need more witchcraft, and if it wants to replace you, it will have to have a lot of strength, and it can't do it."

"Makes sense!"

"It can't choose people who are too close to adults, and if it wants to become someone as close as Madame, adults can recognize it."

"Li Gongzi is a deputy general, he has the opportunity to contact adults and take the opportunity to start, but he doesn't get along day and night, and it is appropriate to be far and near."

"So, I think this faceless person has either been cultivating for a hundred years and has become a human spirit, or there is someone behind him to guide him, this person is familiar with everything about adults, and he also has a deep understanding of our team." Huo Yizun said.

"Looks like the wicked woman again." Duan Meimei clenched her fists.

"When I was a child, I heard my mother tell me the story of the Faceling, and it was told as a folk tale," Xu Yongzhi said, "so I thought it might be the case, so I wore its pipa bone, hoping to have an effect." ”

"It has an effect," Huo Yizun said, "and if you wear it, you can't change it anymore." ”

"Is this thing any use?" Duan Meimei pointed to the faceless, "Burn it directly with fire, or can it be used for alchemy?" ”

"Wizards generally don't kill non-humans unless they commit a major crime, which is our respect for the god of chaos. We can interrogate this guy and see what its purpose is. Huo Yizun said.

"Okay, let's do it." Xu Yongzhi said.

"I'm going to untie this guy's ears and mouth, and if you don't open your eyes, you try not to speak, and if you want to speak, try not to use your own voice, and don't let it observe us too much." Huo Yizun explained.

He untied his faceless ears and mouth.

"Your name?" Huo Yizun asked in a voice full of majesty.

"I want to know who's asking?" Faceless's answer was very rude.

"The shaman of the shaman, the sorcerer who serves the mountain ghost lady." Huo Yizun was very careful in his words, it was like a religious language.

"I want to know your name, wizard, and I only obey the strong." Faceless said.

"The descendants of the Huo family, faceless, report your name, otherwise I will accept you to alchemy." Huo Yizun's tone was full of threat.

"Faceless obeys orders, Faceless's name is Jianghuchuan, a powerful wizard, Faceless will answer all your questions originally." Faceless said.

They consider themselves to be descendants of Dijiang, so they often use such surnames.

"Who sent you?"

"The witch of the mountain ghost."

"Name?"

"Shangguan Li."

Huo Yizun nodded, that's right, it's Li Forsythia, Shangguan is the surname of Li Forsythia's ex-husband.

"What did she ask you to do?"

"Replace his lieutenant and take the opportunity to attack him."

"Did you kill Xu Yongzhi?"

"No, take him alive."

"Does she have any other facelessness?"

"Nope."

"Did she command any other mythical beasts or non-humans?"

"Yes."

"How much?"

"A lot."

Huo Yizun's brows furrowed, this is not a good sign.

"How many people have you hurt before?"

"Five."

"You're so daring."

"They are bold, I have become a beautiful and cunning boy, but they still dare to stick up to me."

"Are you saying that you are to blame for all the people you killed?"

"Faceless means that there are no innocent human lives on Faceless' hands."

"Faceless, your name is with me, you know the meaning of this, right?"

"You know, you can command me, or you can kill me at any time."

"If you wear a pipa bone, you will also be abolished for a hundred years, go to the mountains to cultivate, and you can't come out to harm people again."

"Faceless obedience."

Huo Yizun pulled out its chains.

"Great wizard, the wall between the two worlds seems to be melting, you better prepare early."

Faceless got down on one knee and went out.

"Is this okay?" Duan Meimei asked Huo Yizun.

"Although they are good at imitation and fraud, but if they obey the strong and are subdued by Li Forsythia, they will obey Li Forsythia and be subdued by adults, and they will never dare to go against adults again, and he will not dare to disobey the words of the Huo family wizard." Huo Yizun said.

"Uncle Yizun," Xu Yongzhi asked, "What does the wall between the two worlds mean?" ”

"It's a long story, but it's worth explaining." Huo Yizun said.

"My lord, you have read poetry books since you were a child, why are there no references to wizards, witchcraft, and dragons in poetry books?" Huo Yizun asked Xu Yongzhi.

"Zi Bu is silent, he hasn't seen it, so he won't talk about it."

"That's right, there have always been legends about witchcraft, gods, dragons and the like, but most people haven't seen it, because after the Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou, most of the gods have entered the mythical world."

"Buddhism calls our world the world of sampa now, let's borrow this name, the world of sampa is a world of low demons, wizards, some non-people and the occasional dragon are the only remaining mysterious powers."

"In the mythological world, these things are the mainstream, and the two worlds do not intersect, so Confucius can't see witchcraft."

"But lately there have been a lot of signs that there are a lot of connections between the two worlds."

"For example, Xiao Duo's chaotic power, Tian Kokou's discovery of the dragon, such as Madame's discovery of the dragon's lair, such as the appearance of clay techniques, such as the appearance of Faceless, Faceless said that there are other non-human and divine beasts at the disposal of Li Lianqiao, indicating that she may have really used some forbidden techniques."

"Isn't that hilarious?" Duan Zishou said.

"This is very dangerous," Xu Yongzhi said, "non-human and divine beasts do not abide by the rules of wizards, they will break the rules of this world, in the past, powerful knights, trebuchets and warships may not be worth seeing in front of divine beasts, and in the end, the world of Suva will inevitably collapse and demonize." ”

"My lord is right, the country, the court, commerce, and the patriarchy will collapse, and the mountain ghost Niangniang left the wizard in the world of Supo, in fact, to prevent this situation, so if Li Lianqiao began to seduce external forces into the world of Supo, the era of wizards may have sounded the death knell." Huo Yizun said.

"Dad, it may be that the world of Supo has become a wizard world and an inhuman world." Crisp said.

"Daddy won't allow this to happen, and a dignified wizard won't let it happen." Huo Yizun's tone was a little sad.

"The era of amateurs and wizards coexisting may end in the Great Song Dynasty, and this winner must be an amateur."

Duan Meimei looked at Huo Yizun and felt that she couldn't let him be immersed in this sad mood, so she hurriedly mentioned another thing:

"The military camp will definitely not be the main direction of attack for Li Lianqiao, she must have other tricks, where will it be, what it will be, we have to think about it together."
