After learning that Mi Feixue was going to attend class at the government school tomorrow, Mi August decided to accompany her in person tomorrow.
Before that, Mi August went to Shen Li to say hello and express his gratitude for his efforts in helping Mi Feixue.
The moment he saw Mi August, no matter how restrained Shen Li was, there was still a hint of surprise on his face.
Mi August came back to visit Mi Feixue almost every night, but she never left the old house. No one in Siye Mansion knew that she had come back many times.
Shen Li was very obedient. He didn't ask why Mi August came back here after he had left with Mr. Suo. As if the two had never said goodbye before, he responded to Mi August's thank you and said, "I just accepted Miss Mi from the beginning." Miss Mi, there is no need to be polite."
One thing can be done in several ways. Shen Li could give Feixue any identity and send him to a private school at will. But Shen Li chose the best arrangement, taking into account all the details.
Mi August's principle has always been to keep grudges clear, and what Shen Li did really touched her heart.
She looked into Shen Li's eyes and said, "The night warriors who use magic weapons in Si Ye Mansion always have a short life."
Shen Li was stunned for a moment, looking silent.
Mi August: "Do you know the reason?"
Shen Li said: "The magic weapon is poisonous, and its lifespan will be eroded if ordinary people use it."
Mi August asked: "Then do you know what this so-called 'poison' really means?"
Shen Li said: "The artifact belongs to Yin, and Yin energy corrodes Yang."
"More than that." Mi August said.
Shen Li was surprised, "What do you mean, girl?"
Mi August said: "The Yin energy carried by the artifacts is not only harmless but also beneficial to the Yin system spiritual masters. Their 'poison' really refers to their nature. The artifacts are the condensed ghosts of all creatures after death. Most of these ghosts stay in the world because of excessive negative thoughts. Once they form a contract with a spiritual master, the spiritual master will be assimilated by the negative energy and habits of the artifact day and night. This assimilation will cause the spiritual master to develop symptoms such as mania, ADHD, and depression. and other mental illnesses.”
Shen Li could understand the first part of it, but could only guess the names of the diseases at the end based on their literal meaning.
"You are not enlightened and cannot truly form a contract with the artifacts, but you integrate them into yourself and use them. It seems that you are controlling them, but in fact you are just nourishing them at the cost of your soul in exchange for the right to use them."
"During use, any slight movement of them will cause harm to you."
All this information was obtained by Mi August from Jiang Shou. The magic weapons issued by the Lingji Commandery to the branch offices all have deeds, and the real control lies with the headquarters.
Distributing the magic weapons not only multiplies the strength of ordinary people and gives them the power to deal with the weird things in the world, but also uses these people to raise the weapons.
Although the headquarters did not tell all the truth, it did say that the weapon was poisonous and would cause harm to the body if used. The people in the branch below knew that using the magic weapon would shorten their lives, but they still used it anyway.
At this time, after listening to Mi August's words, Shen Li frowned for a long time and said to Mi August, "Thank you, Miss Mi, for telling me." But he had no intention of giving up using the magic weapon.
Mi August guessed that this would be the case, so she was not surprised. She stood up and said goodbye without saying anything more.
Shen Li walked her to the door.
When Mi August walked out of the door, Shen Li finally couldn't hold back and asked, "Does Miss Mi have a solution to the problem of the magic weapon hurting her body?"
Mi August said: "What can I do that all spiritual masters can't do?"
Shen Li was speechless, "I made a mistake."
Mi August continued: "But if you want to take it out someday, I can help you."
According to the experience Shen Li received from his predecessors, once the artifact is integrated into himself, it cannot be separated until the moment of death. Then he remembered what Yu Hu and others said. The man in front of him did have the ability to separate artifacts from people with his bare hands, and he could take objects without hurting people.
Shen Li's eyes lit up with surprise, and he thanked her: "Thank you, girl."
No matter whether he chooses to take out the magic weapon before the end of his life or not, Mi August's words give him a way out.
Thinking that this benefit was because he had handled Mi Feixue's affairs properly, Shen Li felt happy in his heart. Fortunately, he did not ignore the young master just because Miss Mi left with Master Suo.
After that, Mi August returned to the spirit ship again, rang the bell in exchange for the attendants on the ship, and told the other party: "You don't need to prepare my food, and don't disturb me."
The attendant responded.
Mi August thought of Jiang Shou next door and went over to knock on the door.
When Jiang Shou opened the door and saw her, he happily invited her in and said, "I just asked the servants on the ship. It turns out that not only spiritual crystals can be used on this ship, but also food bought with money, but it's just not that delicious."
Mi August did not go in, but said outside the door: "Well, I came here to tell you that I will be in seclusion for a while."
Jiang Shou was surprised at first, then swallowed the question he almost blurted out, and smiled while holding back his disappointment: "I understand, don't worry, I'm right next door to you, and I won't let anyone else disturb you."
Mi August: "Thank you."
Jiang Shou waved his hand, "It's a small matter."
With Jiang Shou's guarantee, Suo Wuchang no longer needed to notify him. Mi August believed that if Suo Wuchang asked about her news, Jiang Shou would definitely tell him.
When Mi August returned to the single room, he directly used any door to return to the old house.
"The spirit ship has already set sail. At such a long distance, even if Suo Wuchang has something that can sense it, it should be enough. Even if it is not enough, the waiter on the ship also said that once the spirit ship sets sail, it will not return."
Mi August whispered and took out a small wooden box from a cabinet in the room.
At this time, the voice of the spirit of the house sounded from the cabinet, "Madam, there is no need to worry about this. The things are in the house and will not leak out."
"If I had known this, I wouldn't have to be so careful." Mi August joked before opening the small wooden box.
This wooden box was one of the four objects taken out from the Changde Haiyin Mansion.
From the moment the house spirit told the name and function of Xuantiemu that day, Mi August knew that Xuantiemu was definitely not the purpose of Suo Wuchang's interrogation of Chang Dehai.
The other study notes and [Tricky Weapon: Painted Skin] obviously don't meet the requirements, so the only thing left is this wooden box that was placed in the underworld for immortality.
A wooden box made of special Yin-type materials is stored in the underworld, and the thing that Suo Wuchang cares about is definitely not simple, at least more precious than the painted skin of the two-star trick weapon.
In order to avoid trouble, Mi August has not opened the box until today.
Lying quietly in the box was a brown particle smaller than a mung bean.
