Chapter 187: Hair Traces
"Everyone has something they want to protect, and what you want to see is something like this, but maybe what others want to see is something else. I don't blame you for letting them go, but you have to make a choice. What is true is always true, and what is false is always false
Shi Anlan's words are not heavy, but for Hu Xiaosheng, it is already different.
He understood the meaning of Shi Anlan's words very well.
But all men are greedy.
"If I'm not wrong, your parents are indeed here in the capital. The paper figure that just appeared is actually a way to stabilize you. They're replicating an act. β
"Forking behavior?" Hu Xiaosheng asked incomprehensibly, as if he understood or not.
"That's right. It's a very low-level technique. But it's also a technique that can reveal a lot of flaws. I can't tell the life of your parents for the time being, and I don't know if they are cultivators. But this kind of magic needs to be in one place for a long time, and the traces and memories of those past existence are instilled in the body of the paper figures, so that they can learn something. β
Hu Xiaosheng had a good mind and asked directly, "You mean that my parents may stay in a certain place?" β
Shi Anlan nodded, "That's right." β
"Here's your parents' hair, and we can track your parents' hair."
The words fell, and without waiting for Hu Xiaosheng to speak, Shi Anlan pinched the trick with his right hand, and there were words in his mouth, and the hair seemed to be conscious, floating in the air, moving little by little.
"Let's go, let's go over and have a look."
Shi Anlan, Fumeng, and Hu Xiaosheng followed behind the hair and walked a lot of distances.
As he walked, the speed of the hair suddenly increased.
"Stick this talisman to your feet and follow us." Shi Anlan handed Hu Xiaosheng two pieces of rune paper.
As soon as the rune paper was pasted, Hu Xiaosheng didn't feel anything.
At this time, Shi Anlan and Fumeng were already walking like flying, one or two hundred meters away from Hu Xiaosheng.
Hu Xiaosheng wanted to catch up with them, and in a second, he was already following behind them.
Shi Anlan chuckled, turned around and said, "Yes, it's a bit of a brain." β
Hu Xiaosheng touched the back of his head, and his heart became even more curious about the cultivators.
Is this the talisman of spells?
It's just two thin pieces of rune paper, but it can travel thousands of miles in a day.
It's as fast as Scud, if not better.
I was amazed in my heart, and when I spoke, I was unconsciously dyed with worship, "Mr. Shi, you are really amazing." β
"Look ahead, there's a lot of people over there. We have to chase after it as soon as possible, or we won't be able to find our way for a while. β
The speed of the hair is already getting faster and faster.
In the blink of an eye, there was no trace.
Shi Anlan continued to pinch, and several people ran fast.
The people standing around could only feel a gust of wind blowing, and did not see a human figure.
Following all the way, to a remote place, Shi Anlan frowned.
The hair stopped here, and this should be the place where Hu Xiaosheng's parents have been there for a long time.
"This is where your parents are. There is a very strong formation here, and they have always been here. β
"What?" Hu Xiaosheng was shocked, and then shouted, "Impossible? It's absolutely impossible. β
Shi Anlan and Fumeng glanced at each other and didn't explain anything more to him.
"Yes or no, why don't you go in and see for yourself? The truth needs to be pursued by oneself. Shi Anlan looked like he saw through but didn't say anything.
He handed Hu Xiaosheng a dagger, the dagger was made of 10,000-year-old black iron, and it was as cold as a dead man's temperature.
Hu Xiaosheng turned out to be a dagger, only to feel cold all over his body, and couldn't help but shiver.
"With this dagger, you can find the answer you're looking for."
"I ...... Can I not go? Hu Xiaosheng hesitated.
Shi Anlan hooked his lips slightly, "It is always you who make the choice, even if you have a noble person to show you the way and the gods to protect you, you always need to make a choice." β
Facts rather than words are only told to those who can understand.
"I see."
Shi Anlan nodded and left with floating dreams.
After walking a distance, Fumeng pursed his lips and said disapprehantly: "Master, did you say that kid would go in?" After all, this is his own home! With such a blood relative, is he really good after knowing the truth? β
"Everyone has to grow up. If he doesn't break or stand, he will always know everything. You have to know that paper can't contain fire all the time. β
"Master!" The tail of the floating dream dragged on, and his eyes looked at him expectantly.
Shi Anlan looked at her dotingly, "Let's go, let's go and see how he made his choice." Let's also see what the Hu family is going to do. β
Fumeng nodded violently, "The master is so good!" Let's go over and have a look! β
As he spoke, he had already pulled Shi Anlan into stealth and went towards the Hu family's old house.
At this time, the Hu family became active because of Hu Xiaosheng's arrival.
Hu Xiaosheng's grandparents knew that Hu Xiaosheng was coming, and they were all overjoyed, and came out directly to greet them, "Xiaosheng, you finally came to see us." Do you know how much your grandfather and I miss you? β
"Grandma, I'm fine in Anxi City, and I'll come back when I have something in the imperial capital recently."
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back. In the future, if you have something, you can tell your grandma directly, and grandma will make you your favorite corn cake. β
The old man of the Hu family pouted, with a serious face, "What do you eat?" I know that if he cooks food for him, he won't come back to see us two old immortals, where do we need to see him? β
"Grandpa!" Hu Xiaosheng supported his forehead, his grandfather is still such a little seven.
He just rarely came to the imperial capital, and they held a grudge.
If he doesn't come to the imperial capital for a few years, it is estimated that the door of the Hu family will not be able to enter.
"Hahaha...... Grandpa, didn't I come? β
The old man of the Hu family is not as easy to deal with as the old lady of the Hu family, and Hu Xiaosheng can't give people a good impression just by saying a good word.
So he hurriedly said a few more flattering words, making the old man of the Hu family laugh.
Shi Anlan and Fumeng hid in the shadows, observing the interaction between the old man and his wife of the Hu family and Hu Xiaosheng, as well as the flow of breath between them.
It can be seen that the relationship between their grandparents and grandchildren is very deep.
It's not that kind of papier-mΓ’chΓ© feeling.
This also means that the Hu family's affairs may not be simple.
At least there must have been problems with the time when Hu Xiaosheng's parents disappeared.
Maybe it's the family's secrets, but it may also be that someone really plotted against it.
Could it be that there are any secrets in the Hu family?
With this suspicion, Shi Anlan and the others continued to follow Hu Xiaosheng and them into the Hu family's old house.
Entering the inner house, Shi Anlan felt an unusual aura.
There's a dead air here.
