Chapter 682: Using tricks and traps to steal sheep.
If you are an outsider, I am afraid that after a small detail is fraud, he will see a little empty from Jiang Qi's face.
After all, this is an old man. No matter how turbulent his mood is, it probably won’t show in his body language.
But Xu Xiaoshou is different.
He only glanced at the information bar and saw the crazy pop-up windows of "under suspicion" and "under speculation", and he knew it.
Yes, the action just now was done on purpose.
Xu Xiaoshou is not really a master of the Eight Masters, so how could he not know that Jiang Xian’s goal is not the tears, but Mu Zixi?
Therefore, everything he did not only responded to Jiang Xian's words in a step-by-step manner, but also secretly used a subtle psychological action to hit Jiang Qi from the side and make him question his own thinking.
So, in this case, is it necessary to continue bombing?
No need!
After all, too much is never enough.
Xu Xiaoshou didn’t even look at Jiang Qi. He had indeed been targeting this person all along and never took Jiang Xian seriously.
But conflicts between masters always happen inadvertently.
This kind of attack is sometimes the most damaging.
"What does the woman you are talking about look like?" Xu Xiaoshou asked as usual, as if all the secret confrontations just now had never happened.
Jiang Xian hadn't noticed anything yet. He wanted to divert the Eighth Sword Immortal's attention away from himself and responded immediately.
“It can’t be said that she is a woman. She should be a little girl with twin ponytails and green clothes. She is a person on the first floor of the sky.”
He paused for a moment, fearing that the world would not be in chaos, and then said: "Furthermore, when Mr. Xu went up to the first floor that day, there was also a ghost beast accompanying him!"
If there is anything in this world that can attract the attention of important people immediately, it is definitely nothing more than ghosts and beasts.
Jiang Xian is not stupid, he is just a little slow in recovering his mentality.
At this time, he was able to figure out a little bit of the Eighth Sword Immortal's thoughts from several conversations.
The other party may only want information, not human lives.
In this case, being frightened will only make your performance more unstable.
So after finishing his counterattack, Jiang Xian immediately raised his eyes.
As expected, he could already see the first fluctuation in the eighth sword immortal's cloudy eyes.
According to Jiang Qi's inference, isn't the first floor in the sky controlled by the Holy Slave behind the scenes?
But look at the other party's performance...
“Wrong inference?”
Jiang Xian glanced back and saw Jiang Qi with his head lowered, wondering what he was thinking about.
He had no idea what he had just secretly posted. All he could do at this moment was to look back without any conclusion, then look at the Eighth Sword Immortal, waiting for the next words.
How could Xu Xiaoshou be successfully changed by this little brat?
He only echoed the other person's words, thought for a moment, then stretched out his hand and said: "Where is the 'Eye of Heaven's Knowledge' you mentioned?"
Jiang Xian was startled.
Jiang Qi behind him also raised his head.
The two of them never expected that the Eighth Sword Immortal’s way of grasping key points would still be so precise.
This has been going around for a long time, I bet you, the other party didn't go astray at all!
Jiang Xian hesitated for a moment, then spoke with difficulty: "To be honest, the 'Eye of Heaven's Knowledge' is the most precious treasure of my Jiang family, and I must never give it to..."
Xu Xiaoshou's extended hand didn't move, but at this moment his eyes fell directly on Jiang Xian's eyes.
His expression was still so calm, and he didn't even say a word.
Jiang Xian is misfiring.
No matter how stupid they are, the two Jiangs can completely understand the eyes of the Eighth Sword Immortal at this time: "Either the 'Eye of Heaven's Knowledge' or the 'Three Weary Pupils', your choice."
Jiang Xian is about to cry.
He has truly never been so aggrieved in his life.
Why does Tangtang, a super leader of the past era, have to embarrass a junior like Jiang Xian everywhere?
But no matter how wronged he was at this time, Jiang Xian had to hold back and say: "The 'Eye of Heaven's Knowledge' is too mysterious, even I can't control it. It is now on my guard Jiang Lan, and Jiang Lan is not in the manor at the moment.
, performing tasks outside..."
“Chi!” Xu Xiaoshou sneered softly.
Jiang Xian panicked: "Senior, what I said is the truth. The 'Eye of Heaven's Knowledge' really doesn't exist on me. Even if you kill me, you won't get it... uh."
In the middle of speaking, Jiang Xian suddenly stopped.
Yeah, if you kill yourself, the Eighth Sword Immortal will indeed not get the "Eye of Heaven's Knowledge", but you will get the "Three Eyes of Disgust".
“I, I’m calling him over now…”
Jiang Xian was frustrated and picked up the communication bead.
Xu Xiaoshou remained silent, waiting silently for the other party to finish the call, and then watched Jiang Xian put away the communication bead.
“Tell me, what happened to the ghost beast?”
After everything was done, Xu Xiaoshou took back his hand and continued to play with the teacup on the table. He was a little curious whether Jiang Xian saw Xin Gugu or Mo Mo.
Three Yantong Eyes, does it still have such ability?
“It was my friend who saw it, and it wasn’t the ‘three disgusted pupils’.”
Jiang Xian knew what the other person was thinking, and he could never bear the blame at this time. He explained:
“Rong Dahao, a disciple of the Taixu family and the contemporary descendant of the Fumen clan, has been fawning over me during this period, but he doesn’t have any special ability to see ghosts and beasts.”
“But I happened to have seen the transformation of the ghost beast, so I recognized the true face of the woman on the first floor of the sky.”
Jiang Xian felt sorry.
But a dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist. If the Eighth Sword Immortal's attention can really be attracted by Rong Dahao at this time, Jiang Xian will definitely burn incense for that guy and ensure that the Rong family will be rich for a hundred years!
It's Mo Mo... Xu Xiaoshou already understood after listening to Jiang Xian's words.
Honestly, I was recognized by an acquaintance.
In the past, after setting off from the White Cave and walking for half a month, Xu Xiaoshou had already specially asked everyone to change their appearance.
But after all, there are no "changes" in the people around you. Sometimes, it is indeed easy for people with sharp eyes to see it.
besides……
The bodies of ghost beasts travel across the continent, and there is a very important sign!
Xu Xiaoshou guessed that if Narong Dahao could really recognize Mo Mo, he either saw through the disguise technique or noticed Mo Mo's small copper furnace for making goods.
It’s impossible to guard against it!
With emotion in his heart, Xu Xiaoshou remained calm, shook his head and said, "You betrayed your friends very quickly."
"I..." Jiang Xian choked for a moment and managed to explain, "I have only known him for a few days, so he is not considered a friend."
Xu Xiao is in charge of whether he has friends or not.
In his opinion, the Eighth Sword Immortal was indeed a person who was attracted to things about ghosts and beasts, so he was silent for a while.
On the surface, he was thinking.
In fact, Xu Xiaoshou was really just silent for a moment. He had to put on a show and carve all these actions into Jiang Qi's heart.
Within a few breaths, he ended his state, put down the tea cup, stood up, glanced at Jiang Qi and said, "I don't care about the grudge between you and the first floor of Tianshang, nor do I care about the process of you trying to figure out each other."
“But I am interested in the result.”
Xu Xiaoshou stared at Jiang Qi: "You are right about one thing. I am indeed playing chess, but if another team of people suddenly appears in the chess game, even if it is different, as long as it interferes with my plan, it will be clear.
.”
Jiang Qi felt a chill in his heart.
The Eighth Sword Immortal’s words are an exhortation.
She indeed wanted to send a message back to the clan at first, asking them to support the mission of Dongtianwang City.
But now it seems that the idea may be good, but the water in Dongtianwang City is too muddy.
Once you make a wrong move, you may inexplicably break into these life-or-death layouts, and you won't be able to escape even if you want to.
Jiang Qi is very lucky that she is in the Puxuan Jiang family in the Northern Territory.
If an outsider, I am afraid that according to the temper of the eighth sword fairy, I will not mention such a sentence at all.
And the Semi-Saint Family...
Jiang Qi glanced at Young Master Jiang and realized that the two of them could only survive because of this background!
“As for you...”
Xu Xiaoshou looked at Jiang Xian again, and said with neither joy nor sadness: "You can just stay here obediently until I finish my work. Although I don't want to kill anyone, if it is found out that the 'Three Weary Pupils' are not
The things belonging to your clan are left behind by the Lei family..."
“The sky is so big and the earth is so big, there will be no place for you!”
Hearing this, Jiang Xian immediately felt chilly and the hairs all over his body suddenly broke out.
“Senior, don’t worry, I will definitely not lie about this kind of thing.” He immediately swore his promise.
Xu Xiaoshou looked away and didn't reply. He waved his hand and looked out the door.
“Send him to come in.”
“Jiang Lan!” Jiang Xian shouted immediately.
The door of the room was pushed open, and another throne appeared outside.
The Jiang Manor was indeed emptied out just by Xu Xiaoshou's words.
Even the servants are like this, just for fear that some unsighted person will accidentally break in here and offend the legendary Eighth Sword Immortal.
Now, the only person who dares to enter such a large manor is Jiang Lan outside the door.
“The eye of heaven’s knowledge.” Jiang Xian didn’t talk nonsense.
Jiang Lan even took out the "Pearl of Heaven's Knowledge" without saying a word.
He didn't even dare to take a look at the masked man in the deepest part of the room. He just glanced at Jiang Qi when he handed the "Heaven's Knowledge Bead" to Young Master Jiang.
Jiang Qi shook his head slightly, pursed his red lips and said nothing.
“Young Master Jiang, shall I withdraw?”
"Um."
The door clicked again, and Jiang Lan seemed to have never appeared at all, and the scene returned to silence.
“Senior.”
Jiang Xian presented the "Pearl of Heaven's Knowledge" with both hands.
Even though I feel reluctant to give up, even though this is Jiang's most precious treasure, at this moment, being able to exchange my treasure for my life is already a blessing among misfortunes.
Perhaps some people who have specifically investigated the power of the Saint Slaves also know that among the Saint Slaves, there is a person named Tears Shuangxing.
They probably don’t dare to echo this “tears” with that “tears”.
But……
These people not only don’t know that this “tears” is really that “tears”, but there is no doubt that the leader of the Holy Slave is really the Eighth Sword Immortal.
What is even more impossible to understand and dare not think about is that the rumored Eighth Sword Immortal is actually inextricably linked to the fallen Lei family.
A "Pearl of Heaven's Knowledge" in exchange for such important information.
For Jiang, this is not a loss.
Such a reason was also the reason why Jiang Qi did not say anything to stop Young Master Jiang from moving.
Xu Xiaoshou waved and took the "Heaven's Knowledge Bead".
This is a crystal ball the size of a fist. Thick white mist is shrouded inside, and a milky white eyeball is wrapped around it. The eyeball is motionless at this time.
He put it into the ring without politeness, and Xu Xiaoshou didn't ask any questions.
After all, regarding the "Pearl of Heaven's Knowledge", "Eye of Heaven's Knowledge", and in his impression, the "Eye of Unknown" that Lorelei once mentioned, the relationship between the major students of the Tears, I believe that if he asks now, he will definitely be able to
Get the answers you want.
But he is now the Eighth Sword Immortal.
There are some things that people can be ignorant of, but they cannot show it to outsiders in such a stupid way.
That would really lose your identity.
“Remember what I said today, wait in this room until I investigate clearly.”
Xu Xiaoshou said, and his figure began to blur.
His eyes slid from Jiang Qi to Jiang Xian's eyes, staring straight at him, his body disillusioned little by little.
"in addition……"
At this moment, he seemed to remember something. While his body was disintegrating in a way that even Heaven could not see, the lingering sound echoed and lingered around.
“I will protect the orphan Yu from the Lei family.”
"You can spread this word, I, the eight masters, have spoken it."
…
“Boom!”
When the echo in the room finally disappeared completely, Jiang Xian slammed his butt onto the chair.
It was then that he realized that his clothes were completely wet with sweat. Even his hair looked like it had just been washed and slicked. Some of it was still stained with water and stuck to his scalp, without any appearance at all.
“Gone?” Jiang Xian said in confusion.
“Let’s go.” Jiang Qi stood up, pushed the chair back to its original position, and after scanning the house, he immediately sent a message to Jiang Si, asking people to come back quickly.
“How could the Eighth Sword Immortal find me?” Jiang Xian was still scared and said in a daze.
Jiang Qi replied: "Because the person we are eyeing may not be Lei Shuangxing, but also an orphan of the Lei family. According to the tone of the Eighth Sword Immortal's words, even if there is a slightest hope, he will save the person."
"But……"
Jiang Xian was puzzled.
"But judging from the performance of the Eighth Sword Immortal, he is not the mastermind behind the first floor of the sky. Since he is not the mastermind behind the scenes, he must not know the person around him named Xu."
“He also spoke because of his tears, and his tears are blind. So, a blind person can also sense my ‘Three Weary Pupils’?”
As the saying goes, the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.
Jiang Qi suddenly realized something from Jiang Xian's words. Is there something really wrong in this huge closed loop of speech?
The Eighth Sword Immortal came for the sake of tears, but only took away the "Eye of Heaven's Knowledge".
Before his affairs are completed, the Jiang family will be banned and they will not be allowed to touch another suspected "Yu Gu of the Lei family" on the first floor of the sky.
Everything sounds like the Eighth Sword Immortal is really not the mastermind behind the First Floor in the Sky.
But the other party, consciously or unconsciously, is always protecting the first floor in the sky.
Perhaps even the Eighth Sword Immortal himself was not aware of this detail, but Jiang Qi was different. After recalling all the contents of the exchange just now in her mind, she was a little moved.
“It is not mentioned on the surface, but his concern for the first floor of the sky exists.”
“If we really want to investigate the first floor of the sky, with the power of the Holy Slave, wouldn’t it only take a matter of minutes? Why do we have to wait?”
“Also, Lord Saint Slave, is it necessary for you to be so concerned about such an insignificant little organization?”
