Chapter Twenty-Four: Secret, Beauty
Gu Yu'er saw Zhang Xi's face suddenly, and her expression was not as gentle as usual, and her heart was also worried.
Didn't Fu Qing just give her a flute... What is Xiyao doing so seriously all of a sudden?!When did his strength become so small?
Although she slandered Zhang Xiyao, who suddenly became strong and domineering, in her heart, Gu Yuer's movements in her hand did not stop, she was still obedient and handed the little jade flute inserted in her waist to Zhang Xiyao.
As soon as the piccolo glowing with purple light was in his hands, a prompt from the system popped up in Zhang Xiyao's mind.
Ding! The Magic Flute Doesn't Know Dreams:
The mid-level spiritual weapon first appeared in the Western Demon Continent. Playing this flute, shallow and controllable people's minds, deep can weave dreams. In addition to the player himself, those who listen to the flute all escape into the illusion without knowing it, hence the name magic flute does not know dreams.
Combat power: 1000+
Contains Soul Orb Fragment Support Bonus Bonus: 2.5%, +25
The fragment is indeed in this flute... Zhang Xiyao shook the jade flute in his hand, and at this moment, he almost subconsciously wanted to throw this piccolo away, the farther he threw it, the better. But as soon as this thought came to mind, the system jumped out of a series of warnings.
Warning: Forcibly destroying a support mission will deduct -1 Puppet Mystic Skill, -2 Forgetfulness Skill, and -1000 Silver
For the first time in so long, Zhang Xiyao received a warning from the system for the first time, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and when he saw the series of punishment deduction data prompted by the system, he clenched the magic flute that was almost thrown out by him.
Now the only thing he can do is the puppet secret technique of +1 for that level general, and all 1 point will be deducted at once, so will he pay it back?! In that case, wouldn't he have to go back to Zhang Xiyao, who could only hide behind Gu Yu'er and shout for help?
No, no, no! He must not be a burden to Yu'er anymore! Besides, after checking it just now, Yu'er seems to be injured? Otherwise, how can her skill points...
No! It's very wrong! Gu Yu'er's skill points have dropped! Why did she lose skill points? Could it be that she...?!
Suddenly, a very ridiculous idea came to Zhang Xiyao's mind, although he himself felt ridiculous, but it seemed that only this absurd idea could explain everything that happened now...
He was a little nervous for a while, he didn't know how to prove his idea, and he was afraid that the truth was not as he thought, would Gu Yu'er think he was crazy?
Gu Yu'er looked at Zhang Xiyao's hand, grabbed the piccolo for a while, clenched it for a while and released it, the expression on her face was even more unpredictable and indescribably tangled and weird, and her heart was even more suspicious.
Hope for him... What's going on?
Just when Gu Yu'er couldn't help but want to reach out and touch Zhang Xiyao, Zhang Xiyao suddenly softened again.
"Yu'er, this is a rare good flute, since it was given by Fu Qing to thank you for saving your life, then you must take it well, this... Makes a lot of sense, right?"
"Ahh Right...... I'll take care of it. ā
Zhang Xiyao's attitude towards this flute changed faster than the showers in summer, although Gu Yuer was also very puzzled by his flickering attitude, but he was only puzzled for a moment.
She confidently regarded Zhang Xiyao's eccentricity at this time, as if he was angry and jealous, and then wanted to open up again.
"Yu'er, what's next... What's the plan?"
Zhang Xiyao stared at Gu Yu'er seriously, and carefully considered his words to ask, what he actually wanted to ask was: What is your next task?
Gu Yu'er didn't know what Zhang Xiyao was thinking at this moment, but looked at the mountain top in the distance with some melancholy. Even if they were so far away, Gu Yu'er could still see the ashes in that place.
"Xiyao, if I say that the people who coerced us to come here are dead, and we don't have to be controlled anymore, you... Do you want to continue to move forward to the Demon Continent?"
Zhang Xiyao couldn't hear Gu Yu'er's words, whether there were more elements in her wanting to continue, or more elements in accommodating him. After all, he was the one who didn't hesitate to use secret magic to stun her in order to prevent her from escaping.
But if Gu Yu'er changed her own mind, could it be understood that her system had also given her a new task?
Zhang Xiyao, in the spirit of finding out to the end, did not give Gu Yu'er an answer, but continued to ask: "What about Yu'er? What do you think?"
"IāI..."
Gu Yu'er was a little speechless for a while, but in fact, deep down in her heart, she really wanted to just leave, so far the sky was high and she was allowed to roam. But as long as she thought that just now, she was actually deducted 2 main skills by the system because the task was too low, and her legs couldn't be moved.
Who knows if there will be any more serious consequences if he just walks away. In this other world where you can kill people at every turn, if you don't have the ability to protect yourself, you really won't be able to see the sun the next day.
"I haven't been to that place to the west... I heard that the Demon Continent is just a legend? Isn't that the Soul Bead a legend of legends? Such a mysterious and extremely powerful thing... Really... It will make everyone who has heard of it curious..."
Gu Yu'er hesitated to say something that was not what she asked, but Zhang Xiyao listened to it like a mirror in his heart. Slowly, he felt that his blood was surging with Gu Yu'er's intermittent words.
There was an indescribable excitement that made him want to hug Gu Yu'er at this moment. However, he still tried his best to control his excitement, and just grabbed Gu Yu'er with his hand.
When a pair of soft wattles were in his hands, Zhang Xiyao couldn't help but feel that he tightened the strength in his hands, he opened his mouth to say something, but after a while, he only popped out the two slightly excited words "Yu'er".
"How... What's wrong?"
"If Yu'er is also curious, I am willing to accompany you to have a look!"
Zhang Xiyao looked very excited at the moment, Gu Yuer couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and always felt that he was weird from the beginning. Emotional ups and downs, is he still under the influence of this Phantom Sound Mountain?
"Xiyao, I think we should get out of here first before making plans, right? This mountain is never a safe place. ā
"Okay! Let's get out of here first!"
The little girl finally flew out of the air with the two of them, and the direction they flew to was still the junction of the west. Riding on the Luanniao, the two unexpectedly tacitly did not question the direction of travel.
Speechless for a while, Zhang Xiyao frowned slightly and silently watched the mountains and ravines driving by quietly, as if he was thinking about something. For some reason, such a quiet Zhang Xiyao made Gu Yuer a little unaccustomed.
"Xiyao, just after such a long time, even the owner of Fuhu Village died in Phantom Sound Mountain, the two of us are really lucky, do you know who killed him?"
"Fu Qing. ā
"How do you know?"
"When I woke up by the stream, I saw the soldiers of the great army, so many of them either dead or wounded, all lying down by the stream. But only you, the owner of the village and Fu Qing are missing. Yu'er, you can't beat the owner of Fuhu Village. ā
"You said it, if even I can't beat the owner of Fuhu Village, Fu Qing should not be able to beat it! I wondered..."
"Then what kind of ability Fu Qing is, Yu'er, you know it. ā
Zhang Xiyao didn't let Gu Yuer interrupt her after she finished speaking, and then put on a look of smiling at her. For a while, Gu Yu'er looked at Zhang Xiyao fixedly, feeling as if he had seen through everything about himself.
"I... I think... Fu Qing, he's just an inner deacon..."
"Fu Qing and Wu Zhiqiu are the same, Yu'er, you must not be deceived by some appearances. ā
Yes, there is also the existence of Kure no Hill... Zhang Xiyao didn't say it, she really forgot about Wu Zhiqiu. But now that they're out of his control, there's nothing to worry about, right?
"Xiyao, you said that we should be free now, right?"
I don't know why, when Gu Yuer mentioned the word freedom, Zhang Xiyao inexplicably thought of the system tied to himself. Ever since he was reborn in this otherworld, everything he has done seems to have always been because of the system!
Before they knew it, they were led all the way by an unseen and untouchable system! What does it mean to be free?
