Phew... finally back. "Li Conghan's face eased, and he said loudly, "Let's go back to the city! "
The moment he walked into the city gate, Jiang Yan turned back sharply and looked at the road back. At this moment, a more confusing thought appeared in his mind.
"why me?"
"The four of us just returned together, why did that mirror only focus on me?"
"Why?"
…
Fairy Flower Street.
Jiang Yan arrived at the courtyard and was about to push the door open. Just as his palm was pressed against the black door, his fingertips had already touched the coolness coming from the door knocker.
Suddenly, several small, faint and vague female voices came from the courtyard.
He held his breath and listened carefully before catching a few clear tones.
Things like "cheers" and "please drink again...".
Jiang Yan looked strange. The people inside were actually drinking. Without hesitation, he slightly increased his strength... Suddenly he felt a resistance coming from him.
The door was locked from the inside, and he had no choice but to shout...
After a while, the door opened.
"Master, you...you are back!"
Lu Lu must have drunk wine, his face was flushed, and his beautiful eyes seemed to be soaked in water and fogged.
But it can be seen that she is happy.
Jiang Yan's eyebrows relaxed and the corners of his mouth raised slightly. He stretched out his palm and gently rubbed her face, and the warm touch came:
"Are there guests at home?"
"Uh-huh."
Lu Lu put her small hand on Jiang Yan's big hand, narrowed her eyes slightly, and nodded her head slightly, she said, "They are the young master's friends...Sister Lan Xin and Sister Xiu Ya."
She added: "Both of them are wonderful people."
Sister Lan Xin, Sister Xiu Ya?
Jiang Yan was startled, why are they two here?
He also took Lulu to drink...
But it doesn't matter, as long as it can make Lu Lu happy. He pulled back his palm, then held her hand with his backhand, and said softly, "Let's go back, don't keep the guests waiting, don't be rude!"
The two of them walked into the courtyard. Jiang Yan immediately saw the two women on the stone table by the lake. He bowed to them from a distance and turned to walk towards the inner courtyard.
After a busy day, he needed to change into clean clothes.
…
"Lu Lu, tell me quickly, what is your relationship with Jiang Yan? I saw it, he just shook your hand!"
Lan Xin pursed her lips and chuckled, joking repeatedly.
"I am the young master's maid." Lu Lu insisted, but his neck turned red unconsciously.
She is not used to being noticed by others.
Ouyang Xiuya just watched Lan Xin and Lu Lu joking quietly, but she didn't talk to them. She just watched and listened, as quiet as a lotus.
Jiang Yan came over and sat down next to Lu Lu without hesitation. He took out a wine glass and filled himself a glass.
He raised his glass and apologized to Lan Xin and Ouyang Xiuya, "I kept you two waiting for a long time."
Lan Xin and Ouyang Xiuya also raised their glasses.
Lan Xin said briskly, "Hey...Jiang Yan, I'm not annoyed at all. I even hope that you have something to do today and waste your time."
She pointed at the food and wine on the table and narrowed her eyes, "I really envy you for such a comfortable life!"
The Lan family is a real aristocratic family, and Lan Xin has to abide by some of the family's rules and etiquette since she was a child. Like today, without Ouyang Xiuya's endorsement, she would definitely not be able to participate.
"If you like, you can come here often." Jiang Yan drank the wine in one gulp with a smile.
The two girls drank equally.
They chatted about other things, and Ouyang Xiuya finally got to the point. She put down her wine glass, fixed her eyes on Jiang Yan's face, and said softly, "We had an agreement before, and it still counts."
“Nature counts.”
Only then did Jiang Yan understand the purpose of Ouyang Xiuya's visit. He asked, "Teacher Ouyang, have you completed your experiment?"
"It was completed, but it also failed." Ouyang Xiuya shook her head slightly, her voice a little low. Obviously, she didn't want to talk more about the question Jiang Yan just raised.
Jiang Yan was also aware of this problem, so he quickly changed his words and said, "I have a rest period in three days, what about you?"
"I'm always available!"
"Since you have time at that time, I will prepare for departure in the past two days." Ouyang Xiuya said seriously, "This matter is very important to me. If it can be completed successfully, I will pay you the promised items."
"OK."
After deciding on a date to go out, the four of them continued chatting for a while, and finally dispersed late at night.
Lan Xin and Ouyang Xiuya also said goodbye.
…
late at night.
Jiang Yan spread out a piece of paper that Ouyang Xiuya handed to him before leaving. He said that it contained the destination of the outing and the strange details of the target.
"The night locust area, the star valley, the phantom."
Star Valley is their destination. It is located in the southwest of the Night Locust Area. Although it is named after the valley, its scope even exceeds the Guihua City area. It is a huge valley with towering trees and crisscrossing streams. There are many elixirs produced. It is a must-go place for many adventurous warriors.
The phantom is the monster they want to hunt this time. According to the description in the paper, the phantom is a kind of monster with a body only as big as a palm and is accustomed to hiding in shadows and darkness.
Its general form is like a human doll that has been shrunk many times, with a cute appearance.
It rarely attacks living beings directly. It usually infects living beings with strange power and turns them into its own puppets.
Its curse is difficult to resist.
After the creature is gazed and cursed by the phantom, it will turn into a phantom within a short period of time, becoming an illusory shadow with a certain special secret power. At this time, in addition to the abnormality of the creature itself, other things will not happen. Not much changes, you can talk, you can do anything.
But this kind of phantomization is a strange curse after all.
Within half an hour after this, if there is no way to restrain this phantom transformation and the phantom is not killed within this time period.
Then, after half an hour, the phantom transformation of the creatures will disappear. When they turn from virtual to real, they will become the puppets of the phantom, and their own spirits will be imprisoned in the body.
This is an irreversible change. Once it cannot remain in the shadow stage, please curse, that creature will never be able to escape the fate of becoming a puppet.
Of course, the phantom also has its own shortcomings. For example, when it stares at and infects living beings, because of some special and inexplicable connection between itself and the phantom-turned-creatures, the distance between it and the phantom-turned-creatures will not matter. too far.
And this also seems to be mandatory, something that Huandu cannot resist.
If this were not the case, after the phantom cursed a certain creature, it flew away directly and waited for it to become a puppet, then its curse would be almost unsolvable.
Then the category of phantoms is not only the fourth level of weirdness, but also the sixth level.
Because after infecting a creature, the distance between the phantom and the phantom creature will not be too far, so this is the best option to break the curse.
Find the phantom, kill the phantom, and the curse will disappear.
Slowly raising his left hand, the corners of Jiang Yan's mouth curled up slightly, and he murmured in a low voice:
"After cursing the creature, it actually cannot stay too far away..."
"Then with the power of the modifier, wouldn't this kind of weirdness be invisible to me?"
"Ouyang Xiuya seems to be in great need of the body materials of the phantom dolls. So if I kill a few more and sell them to her, can I exchange them for a copy of the Void Pill Technique?"
