Chapter 037: The Story of the Book and the Knife

The location of the buyer's store is never fixed, it will appear randomly in places you don't expect, maybe it is next to the traffic lights at the intersection of streets and alleys, maybe it is the long-untrimmed forest of the wetland park, and it may be hidden behind the grocery store, and you can't find it at all if you don't pay attention to it. As a leader, Kwai Risa is extremely qualified, she memorized the change pattern of the location of the [buyer's store] in three years, and deduced the three possible distribution points now.

Eventually, I found it without much effort. When he saw the boss, Zhan Tao really suspected that they were the same person, and under the deliberately concealed face, there might be an indistinguishable face. It's too similar, whether it's the sound or the habit of gestures, or the style of dressing. When the boss saw the two visiting, his attitude was particularly enthusiastic, and after figuring out the intention, he asked Zhantao, "You said you only opened the book once?"

"That's right. Zhan Tao said sincerely, "I always feel that the author of this book is tired, and deliberately concealed some words related to use restrictions, if you can summon the big demon infinitely, then you can dominate the whole universe?"

"Because of these unfounded speculations...... You resisted the urge to open it again?" the boss was a little stunned, perhaps realizing that this reason was unreasonable.

"It's not surprising, it's better to be cautious in the face of the unknown." ”

"In fact, the previous owners of this book have read it several times in a row and summoned several great demons in a very short period of time after they had it. The boss laughed, "But it turned out that they were eaten alive because they couldn't control these monsters." ”

"Greed is the original sin. Listening to the conversation between the two, Aoi Risa commented.

Zhan Tao thought for a while, and was a little puzzled, "Since the author has passed down the book, why did he want to kill the next generation of heirs?"

The word was not hidden by him. The boss shook his head, took a large bag of Gate handed by Kui Risha, weighed the weight with his hand, and said with great satisfaction, "Moreover, most of the descendants know this rule, but they can't restrain the obsession of getting stronger." For the owner of the book, it is not difficult to summon the big demon, and it is precisely because there is no threshold that it has become the real reason why they have died. ”

Zhan Tao sighed, "Wow, I almost died." ”

"The author's purpose is to pass on the book to virtuous people, and apparently the insatiable are not among them. The boss took the knife, but he was not afraid of the edge of the blade, and flicked the trajectory with his fingers, "The knife is a good knife, but it has suffered a vicious battle recently, and the blade is seriously damaged, and it is difficult to restore the divine light of the year." ”

"Do you know where it came from?" Aoi Risa is more concerned with the story behind the knife than with the book.

"Three days and the moon are near. "The boss is well-read, his fingers are like swords, and he points directly to the knife pattern," this is the famous sword inheritance of the Ashikaga shogun's family, with a half-moon pattern, and the sword inscription is "Sanjo", which is the name of its creator swordman. ”

Aoi Risa was not satisfied with this, "Do you know any other more valuable information, such as the flow trajectory of spiritual power when carrying the knife, or maintenance precautions and the like?"

The boss was silent for a long time, and shook his head with an embarrassed face.

If the owner of the [Buyer's Store] can't tell, then the origin of this knife is really very mysterious, and it's no wonder that Aoi Lisha can't find a clue. In order to get the information she wanted, Kui Lisha paid a lot of price, according to her, the rewards from the last [rank] call were all put in, the boss is a businessman, naturally he will not do loss-making business, and every piece of information he has is clearly marked with a price and the price is expensive.

Zhan Tao was a little embarrassed, it was not his code of conduct to let women think of it, but he was shy in his pocket, so he could only vaguely say that he would perform well in [rank] and try to get more bounties to honor her. Aoi Lisha listened to it and couldn't say a flirtatious smile, "Come on, you little rookie, it's good to survive the first round." ”

Before leaving, the boss gave a piece of advice for free, which is rare, but because what he said was quite casual, and the things given away for free have never attracted attention, so Zhan Tao was not too relieved.

"The process of purification of this world will not end easily, and perhaps one day it will be out of those people's control," he said. ”

The first thing he did when he returned was to look for Zhang Xiluo all over the world, and before he died, Cyril said that she was a [sober person], this person who deliberately disguised herself as a passer-by and had no sense of existence is really worthy of high vigilance. Originally, it was quite easy to find Zhang Xiluo, but to call Bai Lian or Chen Naixi, they are roommates, so they naturally know each other's whereabouts. But after making an unpleasant fuss, in order to avoid suspicion, Zhan Tao tried not to disturb them, and personally used the stupidest method to squat her downstairs in the dormitory.

I don't understand the situation, I think it's a crazy boy who is waiting for the goddess to patronize. Fortunately, the wait finally paid off, and at noon, Zhang Xiluo came out with a stack of books. Looking at her dress, she is indeed "remarkable", she is a model for passers-by, she is actually good-looking, but the one-sided glasses completely cover the spirituality of her eyes, coupled with all plain clothes and pants, it is difficult to find out no matter how good the eyes are in the embarrassment.

Zhan Tao hurried up to meet her, wanting to stop her straightforwardly, but Zhang Xiluo's acting skills were good, and he dodged with a slight sideways, Zhan Tao had to turn around and chase after him, shouted several times, and stopped her when he started.

"You call me?" Zhang Xiluo's expression was quite confused, like a stupid girl who did not know anything about the world.

"Don't pretend, we're the same kind, we have to help each other, you don't have to be afraid, Cyril is dead, and no one will threaten you again in the short term. Zhan Tao showed his intention, "I came to see you, mainly for the sake of superficial identity, maybe there are still [sober people] like us in this school." ”

Zhang Xiluo straightened up slightly, lifted his glasses and said, "It turns out that Cyril is dead, no wonder I haven't seen him in the past few days, it's really just a scourge, is it ...... You killed you? You're amazing. ”

At this moment, Zhan Tao had hesitated, although he belonged to the same kind, he could not understand each other, and if he explained too much, it was easy to be caught. But if we don't treat each other with sincerity, then how can this alliance be established?

Zhan Tao still decided to tell the truth, and Zhang Xiluo was shocked for a long time after hearing it, "You said that you were friends with [the protagonist]......? It's a natural enemy!"

"That's the way it is, and it's clear when you have the opportunity to meet. At this, the conversation paused, and then Zhan Tao thought of a curious and very important question.

"When did you notice that the world had changed? Besides, how did you protect yourself? Don't be nervous, I see that you are so weak, that's why you ask like this. Zhan Tao tried his best to make his tone more friendly.

Zhang Xiluo pursed his lips and took out the answer that had been prepared a long time ago, "I can't remember exactly, but I know one thing, the increase in human [openness] is not the subjective will of those people, strictly speaking, they are gradually losing control of this world. ”
