Lu Mingfei confirmed that there was no one around and said quietly: "Boss, don't be afraid of what I'm going to say."
Gu Bei said indifferently: "Who do you think I am? I am your boss, the only stranger in this world. I won't be afraid. You just say it."
Of course Lu Mingfei knew that Gu Bei wouldn't be afraid. He was just warning him just in case so that Gu Bei could be mentally prepared.
Lu Mingfei leaned into Gu Bei's ear mysteriously: "Last night, I met the devil."
Gu Bei raised his eyebrows and turned his head to Lu Mingfei's ear: "Is it a succubus?"
Lu Mingfei shook his head blankly, and Gu Bei couldn't help but sigh: "What a pity..."
Lu Mingfei reacted and looked dumbfounded: "Oh, boss, be more serious, I'm talking to you about business!"
Gu Bei shrugged: "You were the one who misbehaved with me first, met the devil or something."
As he spoke, Gu Bei took out a small devil horn headdress from his pocket, clicked on the switch, and the headdress lit up with a red light.
Gu Bei placed the lamp on Lu Mingfei, then took out a mirror from nowhere and took a look at him: "Well, now you are a devil too."
Lu Mingfei subconsciously looked at himself in the mirror. He really looked like a devil... Oh, no!
"Not this kind of devil!"
"Is that the succubus?"
"Boss, can you shift your focus away from the succubus?"
"……All right."
Gu Bei nodded and asked seriously: "Who is the devil?"
"No one!"
Lu Mingfei danced and gestured: "He's the kind of devil who is small, talks arrogantly, and likes to trade other people's souls!"
Gu Bei had an extra pen and paper in his hand at some point, and with a few strokes he drew a picture. On it was a handsome guy with three pairs of black chicken wings.
Gu Bei showed the picture to Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei corrected: "Is this Lucifer? The devil I saw was smaller and looked like he was not yet an adult."
"Isn't there a prohibition on underage labor in hell?" Gu Beidu said as he painted again.
After finishing the painting, Lu Mingfei took it over and looked at it: "Isn't this a Cerberus? I've played Warcraft before, boss, and the demon I met was in human form."
Gu Bei silently turned over the drawing paper.
Lu Mingfei: "Isn't this still a succubus!? Boss, I met a little boy!"
Gu Bei silently took out a drawing from his notebook.
Lu Mingfei: "Isn't this Dante from Devil May Cry? What kind of little boy is this guy? And this guy is a demon hunter, not a demon, right!?"
Gu Bei spread his hands: "If you are looking for a little boy, you should go to Hiroshima."
Lu Mingfei couldn't stand it anymore, so he tore up some drawing papers in his hand and became a little excited: "Boss, the little devil is not from the game, I saw it with my own eyes!"
"He's the kind of little devil who compels you to be satisfied, pauses time, and always asks you if you want to trade your soul. Do you understand?"
Gu Bei nodded: "I understand, keep talking."
Lu Mingfei calmed down a little: "I met the little devil last night. He kept calling me brother and told me to make a deal with him. I only need to spend a quarter of my soul to save my senior brother and Su Xiaoqiang."
Gu Bei asked with interest: "Then, you agreed?"
"How can it be?!"
Lu Mingfei waved his hand: "I didn't see it for nothing. I know that making a deal with the devil will not end well, and boss, you also told me how important the soul is. How could I just trade it out like this?"
Gu Bei nodded: "You still have some brains. What next?"
"Then……"
Lu Mingfei thought for a while and decided to tell the truth: "Then the little devil said that I was his first customer and could not die like this, so he gave me a free trial opportunity, which can cause dragon blood to explode in a short time. Then I rushed back to the bar and fought side by side with my senior brother, raising the knife and falling..."
Gu Bei nodded, he knew this clearly.
Lu Mingfei's dragon blood burst out frequently. Even if it was a temporary awakening, the power remaining in his body would still have an impact on Lu Mingfei's body, transforming and strengthening his body. There was no reason why Gu Bei couldn't discover it.
But now is not the time.
Gu Bei shook his head: "Mingfei, you have to remember that there are no such things as angels and demons in this world. You have to believe in science."
This sounds a bit familiar. Did you say it in the first chapter?
Also, don’t you think it’s ridiculous for a stranger like you to tell me that a mixed race should believe in science?
Lu Mingfei looked at Gu Bei with a strange look in his eyes, and he felt so full that he didn't know where to start.
Gu Bei patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder and said earnestly: "I guess you must have met a powerful hybrid, or a dragon king?"
"Relax and take a step back. Even if it is really the devil, since you are the devil's client, you don't have to worry about the other party plotting against you."
"Even if the devil trades souls, it is essentially a business transaction. They don't know that the customer is God."
When Lu Mingfei heard this, his face became even more bitter: "Boss."
"?"
"The devil and God are mortal enemies."
"Don't worry about details like this."
Gu Bei pulled Lu Mingfei Hu over as a joke, scratched his hair, and turned his head to look aside.
The moonlight penetrated into the corridor through the window, and the originally long and winding corridor became even longer and no one knew where it led.
The young man walked into the corridor under the moonlight and waved elegantly to Gu Bei: "Good evening."
"I feel bad when I see you." Gu Bei felt a little tired.
Lu Mingze smiled and waved his hand, and the space in the corridor expanded and turned into a magnificent living room. Tables, chairs, benches, and a complete set of tea sets appeared out of thin air between the two of them.
The corner of Gu Bei's mouth twitched: "Is it necessary? It's all an illusion anyway. What's the point of making this up?"
Lu Mingze's illusions had no effect on Gu Bei. Even if these things were used, they could not be accepted or believed like other people's illusions, thereby interfering with reality.
Naturally, Gu Bei couldn't be interfered with.
Lu Mingze sat at the tea table and took a sip of tea: "Nature is meaningful to me."
Gu Bei stared at him for a while, then sat down opposite Lu Mingze and filled himself a cup of...tea?
"Hey, isn't this wine?"
"What's the difference? Anyway, you don't believe in these things, and they have no effect on you. Whether it's tea or wine, isn't it the same to you?"
Gu Bei frowned. Lu Mingze's words made sense, but Gu Bei always felt a little inexplicably unhappy.
Not only was he unhappy, he also heard the displeasure in Lu Mingze's tone.
He also somewhat guessed the reason. What could make Lu Mingze's mood fluctuate was the words Lu Mingfei.
However, he didn't say anything. He just sat opposite Lu Mingze and drank silently. Although the wine was mellow, Gu Bei didn't feel drunk at all.
After the drink was over, Lu Mingze finally spoke.
"You need to give me an explanation."
Explain? Account to whom? Who should I answer to if I came out to fool around?
Gu Beiman wanted to throw the drink out of the glass, but considering that this illusion was Lu Mingze's home court, he weighed the strength gap between the two...
Well... Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. Don't bully young people into poverty.
Just wait until I develop a few more amazing skills, and then I'll beat you up!
Gu Bei was ecstatic, but his expression remained unchanged: "Lu Mingfei doesn't know about our relationship, and I didn't violate the agreement between us."
"It has nothing to do with the agreement, it's the agreement."
Lu Mingze looked at Gu Bei, the golden boy was dazzling: "Our agreement is that you will help Lu Mingfei inherit my power."
"But because of you, Lu Mingfei refused this inheritance."
The pressure in the illusion suddenly surged, and the chandelier on the ceiling shook, but Gu Bei turned a blind eye to everything.
"What you call inheritance power is harvesting Lu Mingfei's soul through trading?"
Blue light rose from Gu Bei's body. Lu Mingze's illusion was created based on reality and consciousness. Blue Hand's ability to control the soul was enough to run unimpeded in this illusion.
And after using both hands further, Gu Bei was able to sense Lu Mingze's state more clearly.
"If I guess correctly, your current situation should not be very good, so you rely on illusions every time you appear, so you are eager to let Lu Mingfei "inherit" your power and harvest his soul. ? "
"What happens after the soul harvesting is completed? Do you occupy the magpie's nest and occupy the body? Or do you let Lu Mingfei's soul die in your place?"
Gu Bei was aggressive, but Lu Mingze just shook his head. Since Gu Bei had seen through it, there was no need to hold on.
Lu Mingze put down the tea cup in his hand, and the illusion dissipated like bubbles. Lu Mingze and Gu Bei returned to the corridor where they started, standing opposite each other.
"Inheriting power is just inheriting power, that's what it means literally. You don't have to think too much, I won't hurt my brother."
Lu Mingze explained it as if he didn't explain it, giving people a very untrustworthy feeling.
You call me "brother" in a weird way. Do you think I will believe you if you are a golden finger?
Gu Bei has seen many old grandfathers who want to hurt the protagonist. They just want to dispel the suspicion with a few words, so it is better to do it once.
But violence is always the lowest method. Although Lu Mingze holds power, he does not advocate power.
"The matter between me and my brother is not something you can understand. The deal will definitely continue. This is the only way to inherit the power. What you have to do is to help your brother inherit my power as we agreed. Only in this way will my brother inherit my power?" …”
Lu Mingze's voice became smaller and smaller, and Gu Bei didn't hear the last words at all.
However, this does not hinder his position: "If the inheritance power you are talking about is to help you collect Lu Mingfei's soul, please forgive me for refusing."
Lu Mingze was finally a little unhappy, and his huge soul rushed forward like a tsunami: "What does the matter between my brother and I have to do with you? Do your own thing..."
Even though he was injured, Lu Mingze's soul power was much stronger than that of Norton who was forcibly awakened. In just one wave of attacks, he smashed through more than a dozen soul barriers built by Gu Bei with both hands.
The pressure of the soul rushed in front of him, but Gu Bei was undaunted. He crossed his arms across his chest and wrapped his whole body in blue Yuan Qi.
"what relationship?"
"That's my son's horse! I'm my man, I'm covering him!"
The power of the soul poured out and hit Gu Bei like a stormy wave crashing on the shore. Gu Bei mobilized Yuan Qi, only to find that the Qi sea in his body was like a pool of stagnant water, tightly locked and unmoving.
Gu Bei was unable to mobilize Yuan Qi and could only resist.
"what have you done?"
Lu Mingze replied: "Whether you drink tea or drink alcohol, naturally it makes sense."
"There's something wrong with the wine."
"No problem, there's something good in the wine."
"You fart!"
Gu Bei nailed himself to the spot, his soul swaying back and forth with the soul pressure, but it was like a deep-rooted green lotus clinging to the green bamboo of the green mountain, unshakable.
Lu Mingze: "You have become stronger."
"I've always been strong."
"There are some things you can't know yet."
"I just want to know what I want to know."
"What do you want to know?"
"I want to know the truth about the deal!"
Lu Mingze had a headache. He withdrew his soul pressure and straightened his slightly messy suit: "I really can't say this."
Gu Bei breathed a sigh of relief, but still tried to use his energy and was always vigilant: "Then choose what you can say."
Lu Mingze pondered for a moment and then said: "The soul that I traded with my brother was not the soul itself, but something that relied on the soul. Only when that thing is completely removed can my brother's soul be pure enough to inherit my power."
Gu Bei frowned: "It's as if I didn't say it."
Lu Mingze felt that Gu Bei didn't know how to lift his hand. As soon as he stretched out his hand, there was another overwhelming pressure.
Gu Bei hurriedly mobilized Yuan Qi's defense, and his tone also changed: "It's better than saying nothing at all."
The pressure was taken back again.
Lu Mingze looked at Gu Bei with burning eyes: "You have had such a profound influence on my brother that his personality has changed."
"Although we agreed before to ask for your help, the original plan only hoped that you would not hinder the plan and did not expect you to provide help. But now it seems that without your help, the plan will be difficult to complete."
Gu Bei spread his hands helplessly, what can he do? There is something wrong with having a charming personality?
Lu Mingze didn't care what Gu Bei's attitude was, and said, "I will ask Mai Jiude to inform you when I need you. Outside of that, you can do whatever you want."
As Lu Mingze spoke, his figure began to fade, as if it was floating into mist in the air.
Gu Bei quickly asked: "What did you put in your wine? You haven't untied it for me yet?"
"Your soul is very strong, but your foundation is too solid and you haven't learned the essence of how to use the soul. Although I don't understand how strangers practice, I can't forge the soul into a stone."
"There is a hint of the power of the sky and wind in that glass of wine, which is a reward for you in advance."
"Before you can't control it, the power of your soul will turn into a stone. When you master it... you will know its function by then."
Gu Bei nodded and said, "Don't forget what you said."
Lu Mingze's shadow turned back: "I will never hurt my brother, he is my most beloved relative, friend, and brother."
"Also, you saved that little girl from a lot of trouble. I suggest you take her with you, or follow her, otherwise something will always happen."
Painted pear clothes?
Gu Bei was a little surprised that Lu Mingze would suddenly mention Hui Liyi, but since Lu Mingze specifically mentioned it, it meant that Hui Liyi was not just injected with dragon blood reagent.
"Also, be careful Odin."
Lu Mingze was like a forgetful old woman. Before she left, she finally remembered to say something, but it didn't make any sense.
Gu Bei has been on guard against Odin for a long time and has never let up.
From the time he met Chu Zihang and became brothers three years ago, Odin has been his life and death enemy.
This is fate.
