Should I tell the truth, or use words to trick the little girl in front of me and dig out more information?
After weighing it for a few seconds, Zhao Chen decided to choose the former. After all, this place is full of dangers. If his words mislead the obviously more experienced girl, it may lead to greater disasters and cause the mission to fail.
Although Zhao Chen is keen on taking risks, he is not a reckless man who does not cherish his own life. Naturally, he understands that in the current environment, only sincere cooperation with the little girl will be more conducive to solving the problem.
And openness and honesty are the prerequisite for cooperation.
"Of course, the more important thing is that this girl took the initiative to tell me the information she had before asking me for information. She is obviously very generous in dealing with people. If I trick her and deceive her, she will definitely not be happy if I am found out. …
“For such a character, it’s best to show sincerity.
"Tsk, as a half-traveling businessman, 'talking to people and talking to ghosts' is a necessary quality."
As his thoughts were spinning, Zhao Chen briefly explained the process of how he saw the "Guanyin Picture" and was sent here inexplicably, but he did not mention the "Big Sun Star Cha". He only said that he used some means to see the demon Taoist side. Kyoshi's memory.
Finally, he spread his hands and said, "So, I don't know what my identity is in this scene."
"So that's how you came in..." The pretty girl nodded thoughtfully, as if she wanted to ask something, but soon her tone switched to a slightly impatient state, "Forget it, wait. Let's get out alive. This mission may be very troublesome.
"My surname is Qi. I won't tell you my specific name. What do you call me, sir?"
His speech is very coherent, and there are no obvious gaps in his thinking logic. It's just that his speech will change into different styles depending on his emotions. It doesn't look like two personalities... But I can't say what the specific situation is...
While thinking in his mind, Zhao Chen also responded: "My surname is Zhao, and I am the second oldest child. Just call me Zhao Er... Lang."
"Zhao Er" sounds too much like a second-hand character and is not pleasant to hear, so Zhao Chen temporarily added the word "lang"... "Erlang" is much more prestigious.
He paused and then asked: "Why do you say it's troublesome?"
"Because the mission mentions 'weirdness', and once a 'weirdness' takes shape, it will at least require a 'supernatural power' monk to completely eliminate it." The little girl surnamed Qi replied seriously.
"Weird?" Zhao Chen did not hide his ignorance and asked humbly.
In the current situation, pretending to understand something you don’t know is a taboo.
Miss Qi is not impatient about this. After all, the relevant knowledge is indeed out of reach of ordinary people. Even the children of big sects or cultivating families will only be informed by their elders when they need to travel.
And one person can be a wise man, and two men can be a wise man. There is no harm in letting this unexpected companion know more about him... Even if he can't make good suggestions, at least he can avoid causing trouble.
"Have you ever heard of 'evil'?" Miss Qi asked.
Looking at the emerald green ribbon on her head that was swaying as she walked, Zhao Chen nodded and said: "I know something... The master said that the weakest monsters all have magical powers, and he also said that with my current strength, I shouldn't know too much. "
"Your master is right, knowledge is 'poisonous', and it is also reflected in 'destiny'. The more you understand evil spirits, the easier it is to encounter them... But it doesn't matter to us. If we can come here, we are destined to encounter them frequently. they.
"The so-called 'evil' is just a general term, and there are many specific types. 'Weird' is one of them, and it is also the most difficult to prevent.
"Other monsters are actually rare in Daxia. After all, the sources of many monsters have been suppressed and sealed by the Shangzong and the family... But the 'weird' can randomly appear anywhere in the world. Its source is unknown, but It often uses a certain creature or object as a carrier to establish its twisted rules within a certain range.
"Once its rules are perfected and it forms an independent 'uncanny domain', it can only be defeated by a 'supernatural power' that also has the power of the rules.
"When a person with magical powers enters the 'Uncanny Realm', it is too difficult to get out. There is only one person in a million who can circumvent and utilize all the 'rules' and successfully get out of the 'Uncanny Realm'.
"Looking at the current state of this village, the 'Weird Domain' should not have taken shape yet. As long as we find the 'Weird' host, seize the loopholes in its rules, destroy or seal it, the village's problems will be solved."
Miss Qi sighed slightly when she said this, and finally concluded,
"That's probably where our opportunity lies."
After listening to her explanation, Zhao Chen was not so optimistic. He thought for a moment and analyzed: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Otherwise, the swordsman surnamed Wang can solve the crisis in this village without us coming..."
At this point, he seemed to think of something and turned to ask, "By the way, I still don't know what kind of strength you have, Miss Qi?"
Miss Qi glanced at the big house in the center of the village that had appeared in her field of vision. She slowed down and nodded solemnly: "You're right, I'm afraid it's not that simple...
"Well, I have cultivated my true energy and opened my 'eye aperture'. What about you?"
It looks like a little girl about the same age as me has actually reached the second level of 'Tongxuan', the orifice refining realm? Zhao Chen was a little surprised, but still answered honestly:
"I'm still in the training stage, but I've already entered tranquility."
Miss Qi didn't look down upon this at all. She nodded slightly and said: "If you can 'enter tranquility', then you are not far away from cultivating true energy... And when using a fire blunderbuss in the 'entering tranquility' state, just in terms of attack, The power is much more powerful than mine."
After saying that, she glanced at Zhao Chen's gun bag with envy, and said in a sour tone: "Why can you bring something that does not belong to this historical period into the 'mist of history', but I can't... Obviously you are just..." Smuggled in."
It turns out that in the so-called "mist of history", can't something beyond this era not appear? No wonder the swordsman had a strange expression when he looked at my fire gun... Well, although I don't know the reason why I can bring it, I guess it has something to do with the "Big Sun Star Cha"... By the way, I don't know where it is either. Can you enter Xingcha... The time is not right now, I will try it later when I have a chance.
As his thoughts were spinning, Zhao Chen had followed Miss Qi to the door of the mansion in the center of the village.
The first thing that caught their eyes was the mirror! Densely packed mirrors!
On the lintels, on the walls, and even hanging under the eaves, there are all silver mirrors facing one direction, at least hundreds of them.
In the front yard behind the entrance of the house, there is a building made entirely of mirrors, similar to a Japanese castle tower.
It's just that this "Tenshu Pavilion" has only one wall and is only more than three meters high. It seems to be just a decoration.
But neither Zhao Chen nor Miss Qi thought so, because even an "ordinary person" like Zhao Chen could feel the terrifying aura that was exuding in the "Tianshou Pavilion" at this moment.
