Early the next morning, the song and dance troupe continued to head out towards Xiangye City. According to Xiuyi's advice, instead of focusing on the small villages that don't make a few dollars, it is better to seize the time to rehearse new scripts and wait for the big city to show off their skills. Clarice accepted the suggestion, and from that day on, the members of the cabaret seized all the time to rehearse Turandot.

The use value of Jin Vit on this big 6 is almost equivalent to 200 yuan. Clarice had never seen a lot of money in her life, and a few hundred Kin Witt was already the limit of her short-term goals.

But thinking about it, this practice seems a little too inhumane.

Of the five carriages, four were occupied by the girls of the song and dance troupe, and the remaining carriage and wagon were the men's territory.

It stands to reason that the "transfer student" Huey was going to be arranged in the back, but Clarice finally had "great mercy" and did not let Huey be with the other men, but let him share a carriage with herself.

This makes the male actors envious - there is always a benefit to being handsome.

But Xiu Yi didn't think so, if he could, he would rather huddle with the men, and he couldn't stand the girls judging him.

And Clarice did this because, she felt that it was time to find out what the origin of this boy who had fallen from the sky.

Yesterday's remarks surprised her, it is impossible for an ordinary teenager to have such insight and wisdom.

"Fink, first of all, I should thank you for all the advice you gave me yesterday, I didn't expect a teenager to understand so much and be so intelligent. I'm also surprised to see that the script you wrote to me, I've never heard of it before, but it's excellent, and I believe that if it's successfully interpreted, it will become a Big 6 classic. But because of this, I feel very strange, are you really a messenger sent by the gods?"

Huey bowed to Clarice: "I'm sorry Captain Clarice, I didn't dare to tell my identity because I didn't know where I was, and I was afraid that my fierce and cruel master was around. But having learned that this is Vansza, and I have been sure that I am far enough away from my terrible master that he can no longer catch up with me and kill me, then I can now tell the truth. ”

Daisy blinked her big pretty eyes and asked, "So you are a servant, so you have a terrible master?"

"Yes, beautiful Miss Daisie, my master's name is Imogen Killery, a member of the Frankish Empire's Killery family, he is a sea explorer and a merchant, as well as a monster hunter and a smuggler of alchemical materials. ”

"An industry that sounds lucrative. Clarice's quest for profit leads her to extract a series of carefully woven lies from Huey to the core of a "money."

"It's really profitable, and my master has a big business. He had a large fleet, and his business spread over the three major 6s. ”

"Then why did you run out?"

Huey politely replied, "Imogen Killery is a very brutal master, and he will not allow anyone to disobey his will. I worked for the Killery family for three years and was his attendant. This position may sound glamorous, but approaching a brutal master is a very terrible thing. On more than one occasion I have seen Killery kill people who have made a small mistake at work. He tied stones to their legs, threw them into the sea, and then watched them sink to the bottom of the sea, screaming and begging for mercy in despair, and then he himself laughed in the boat. Sometimes some of the giants of the sea would swim near the fleet, and he would feed them some of his followers as food. ”

Daisie, Lan Ti and the others covered their lips, and their little faces turned white with fright: "Oh my God, this sounds terrible." ”

Clarice looked at Hue in disbelief, "So how did you get out? How do you know so much?"

"As brutal as Imogen Killery is, he is a very capable host. During my three years with him, I learned a lot from him, including cooking and some business tricks. You know that sometimes the attendant needs to help the master do some recording work, which allows me to understand the master's knowledge very well, and learn enough ways to settle down. My master came to the Reims Empire a month ago, and his fleet was damaged a lot due to a storm at sea, so he needed to stop there for a while. I found an opportunity, and stole some of the alchemist's things from my master's private collection, including potions and a flying cloak. Then I used the flying cloak to escape. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that the flying cloak also had its own limits, and after I had flown some distance, I fell off due to the cloak's lack of energy. I was so panicked and flying around that I didn't know if I was flying out of my master's control. ”

"I see. The girls spoke in understanding, full of sympathy for Huey's plight.

The highest level of lying is to pay attention to the use of details and the appropriateness of one's own situation. Huey's lie not only tells some details that are not clear to everyone, but the point is that it is very similar to the current environment he finds himself in - they are all fugitive servants, all evading pursuit. It's just that the real situation is that he is about to face the pursuit of the entire Reims Empire, not the pursuit of other merchants.

The contrast between the two is obvious.

The girls wouldn't care to take in a fugitive servant of a noble merchant, it was no big deal, but they certainly wouldn't dare to go against the entire empire.

The advantage of this is that he can do exactly the same thing as a real fugitive in the future when faced with some special circumstances, without fear of being seen by others. And it's in line with the girls' wild speculation last night—people are always willing to believe their own unwarranted speculations, and if they can prove their guesses, they will think they're smart and satisfied.

Another realm of lies is the boundary between long-term and short-term goals. Many lies are always successful for a period of time, but as time goes by, they will gradually be exposed to the public. If the boundaries of a lie are not determined and the time it takes to prove it, then the lie will face dire consequences. Xiu Yi used distant foreign merchants as a pretense, exactly a medium-term disguise. It sounds very confirmative, as if you can always check if there is such a businessman, but it will take a while to prove it.

And during this time, Huey is safe and invulnerable. By the day you actually confirm it, he's long gone.

And the ultimate advantage of this lie is that this lie is so similar to the facts he has experienced, that when he expresses his feelings about the past, he can not hide his hatred and disgust for the environment in which he once lived.

Emotionally, he is no longer willing to have any beautiful imagination and concealment of the past.

The lie itself may be false, but emotionally it is completely true.

This is a true lie.

To Huey's surprise, Clarice didn't seem interested in the lie he had carefully weaved, and her eyes were glowing greedily at this moment: "Alchemist's prop? You mean you have an alchemist prop that allows people to fly through the air? Oh my God, where is it?"

Xiu Yi replied helplessly: "Due to the exhaustion of energy, it is useless." In fact, when I fell, it was scattered across the wilderness. ”

"Oh, you scumbag!" Clarice became excited, "know that even if it's a scrap, you should put it away." The materials needed to make it are quite precious. As long as it is charged, it is still a good treasure, and it can sell for a lot of money. Oh my God, should we go back and get that thing back right now?"

Clarice began to mumble to herself.

This woman didn't want to let go of the golden mountain, but she was thinking about the ethereal flying cloak. In fact, alchemists can indeed make this kind of thing, Xiu Yi will, it is not a lost technology, but the requirements for materials are too high. At present, looking at the world, I am afraid that only the materials hidden in the ring owned by Xiu Yi are qualified to make it. But Huey wasn't going to do that.

Hines was right that the pursuit of an alchemist is magic, not a craftsman. He has the ability to resonate with the wind elemental, and instead of spending effort and materials to make a flying cloak, it is better to master the wind spells as quickly as possible, and then let himself really fly. The Wind Grand Magister can fly in the sky, but it consumes too much mana, and it is not something that he can control now.

Probably finally coming to her senses, Clarice asked Huey, "How much are those potions of yours worth?"

Xiu Yi thought for a moment and replied, "I don't know either, you know that alchemists don't have everything very valuable. ”

"Then I'll wait until you sell them. Clarice said deflated.

The girls were accustomed to Clarice's fervent worship of money, and Daisy excitedly asked Huey, "What about your little black dog, and what about the two birds?"

Huey laughed, "They are my long-term companions. The two birds, one named Red and the other Green, are husband and wife. This little black dog ......"

He noticed that when he pointed at the little demon dragon and said the little black dog, Asahi let out a low growl of dissatisfaction. Noble creatures are not to be despised.

Xiu Yi smiled bitterly and stroked its head to soothe it: "His name is Asahi, remember to use the word he when calling him, he is a very dignified creature." He also doesn't like people calling him Little Black Dog, so you can just call him by his first name. ”

"Asahi?"

"Yes. ”

"I didn't expect him to have a lot of personality, can I hug him?"

"Well...... Being maverick usually means being unapproachable. So I suggest you give up this idea, Asahi doesn't like to be close to other people, even if the other person is a beautiful woman, except for the beautiful kind. Huey explained.

Lan Ti comforted him: "Anyway, you are free. Rest assured, the head of the regiment, though greedy for money, will not do anything to sell you back to that hateful master. You can live well here. ”

Clarice glared at Lanti: "Bad things are always said behind other people's backs, Lanti, pay attention to your words, what do you mean that I am greedy for money...... Although that's the truth. At the latter point, Clarice was a little discouraged.

Daisy smiled and said: "No wonder you are so good, you can make delicious meals, and you can also write scripts for the head of the regiment, especially rare that you are so proficient in the way of business, it turns out that your former master was a businessman." Speaking of this, she suddenly put her hands in her heart, and looked up to the sky as if reciting poetry: "No wonder people always say that heroes come from recklessness, and difficult environments make people grow." Oh, maybe all the hardships and setbacks are the gods' test of us. As long as we get out of the difficulties, we will be greeted by the blue sky......"

Xiu Yi was slightly stunned, and after thinking about it, he felt that what Daisy said at this moment made sense. If it weren't for the treacherous survival environment of Purgatory Island, I was afraid that I might not be able to work hard and study diligently, so I am afraid that I might not be able to have such a huge amount of knowledge and wealth now......

Of course, Daisy's emotion at this moment was not actually aimed at Xiuyi, her real thought was that maybe Violet's current suffering was a harbinger of their future glory. As for what it takes to pay in the midst of suffering to become an outstanding character, this point is automatically ignored by the little girl.

People are always happy to see the good and don't want to delve into the hard process.

After thinking about it, Xiu Yi said, "Although I have already told me about my identity, I still hope that you can keep this secret for me. There are many people in the group, and it is always bad to spread the word. ”

"Don't worry, Fink, we're not going to say it. But how do we explain it to the others?" asked Daisy.

"Let's just say that I'm a noble son, and I accidentally went wrong while experimenting with the alchemist's flying cloak, and then I ran into you. What about that reason?" said Huey, laughing.

"Oh, what a little liar you are. The girls laughed together.

Ah, Xiu sighed, he had to keep lying on Purgatory Island, but he didn't expect to leave Purgatory Island, he still had to lie non-stop.

God put him here just to make himself a liar.

Clarice asked him, "Fink, now that you have escaped from your terrible master, can you tell me where you are going next?"

Xiu Yi replied, "I have something to do to go to Fragrant Leaf City, and I will stay there for a while. After that...... I'm going to travel everywhere. ”

"Oh, that's great, we're going to have to stay in Leaf City for a while, after all, it's hard to get a big city, and we're going to get more opportunities to perform. So we can continue to live together, don't we? And since you're going to travel around, you don't care where you go, you can go with the cabaret. Everyone loves to eat what you cook. Lan Ti said excitedly. In this way, even if Fink could really sell his potion in Leaf City, he didn't have to worry about him leaving immediately.

Xiu Yi said lightly: "If you welcome it, I have no opinion." But I feared that my journey would not go well, and in fact my fierce and brutal master would surely send someone to arrest me. Although I left some false clues to confuse my master, those false clues can only delay for some time, and they will catch up with me sooner or later. So I don't think my trip will be too pleasant, and I don't think I can stay with you for long. ”

"Of course we welcome you. But you don't have to worry too much about your master's pursuit, he's not His Majesty Stricker, and he can't stretch his hand that long. Clarice invited.

After seeing the extraordinary conversation and wisdom of the young man in front of her, Clarice had begun to like the young man, so the invitation at this moment was sincere from the heart, and had nothing to do with money.

Xiu Yi thought for a moment and nodded, "I hope so." ”
