Qin Shaoyou subconsciously stood up to greet him, but immediately realized something was wrong.
Zuo Qianhu's arrival was too unexpected. He arrived at the door of the mission room quietly without any warning.
Although it is not difficult to do this with Zuo Qianhu's strength, he never deliberately conceals his whereabouts when he goes to various levels of the Demon Suppression Department, and even makes some noise in advance to let people know that he is coming.
Already.
Because Zuo Qianhu knows very well that the Demon Suppression Department is a special department dedicated to dealing with evil spirits. People here are on high alert at all times. If they enter and leave the Demon Suppression Department quietly, it can easily cause misunderstandings and cause unnecessary commotion and casualties.
of.
Cui Yougui has a deep understanding of this situation.
So Qin Shaoyou was very suspicious, could the person who appeared quietly at the door of his ward really be Zuo Qianhu?
In addition, there was another situation that made Qin Shaoyou feel something was wrong.
So quiet!
Before this, Qin Shaoyou had been using [Bianting] to monitor the movements in Mianyuan County.
And tonight is another night of severe fighting in Mianyuan County. The sounds of fighting and roaring can be heard from all over the city.
But now, these sounds have all disappeared.
This sudden silence made things seem a bit unreal and creepy.
"Something weird!"
Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but feel startled, and then recalled that he had been inexplicably sleepy just now.
With his current level of cultivation, he shouldn't feel sleepy even if he stayed up several nights in a row.
So that sleepy feeling is because I have been under a spell?
And this situation is just a dream?
Qin Shaoyou's hand clenched the soul-cutting knife again, and he immediately discovered that the feel of the knife was also a little strange.
Although Qin Shaoyou's series of actions were not conspicuous, Zuo Qianhu, who was standing at the door of the ward, noticed it immediately.
"No wonder I can make Zuo Zixiong take a look, he is really capable." 'Zuo Qianhu' thought in his heart.
But he did not change his plan just because Qin Shaoyou became alert. Instead, he directly asked: "I took someone away from you today, who is that person?"
The voice of 'Zuo Qianhu' had a strange accent, as if he was humming, and seemed to possess some kind of special magic power.
Qin Shaoyou was already on guard. After hearing these words, he couldn't help but feel dazed. He opened his mouth and was about to say, "It's the Inspector Liu Shuyuan."
But when the words came to his lips, Qin Shaoyou suddenly smelled a fragrance.
The smell of food will make him drool!
The fragrance and the appetite for it actually made Qin Shaoyou instantly get rid of the hypnotic confusion of "Zuo Qianhu" and regain his consciousness again.
The rice cook’s intuition and appetite have contributed!
But Qin Shaoyou, who had woken up, couldn't care less about being lucky, and even the expression on his face and the movements of his hands did not change at all. He immediately followed his reaction and replied: "Report to your lord, I don't know."
"you do not know?"
‘Zuo Qianhu’ frowned slightly.
He did not doubt Qin Shaoyou's words.
In his eyes, although Qin Shaoyou has the cultivation of a sixth-grade martial artist at a young age and can be regarded as a leader among the younger generation, it is impossible to get rid of the influence of his magical power.
"My lord, have you forgotten? When you picked that person up, I asked you about that person's identity, but please ask me not to inquire."
While Qin Shaoyou answered, he was pondering in his heart whether to take down the person pretending to be Zuo Qianhu.
But he quickly gave up the idea.
This person was able to evade the surveillance of the Jiutian Demon Patriarch Statue and sneak into the Demon Suppression Department silently. Whether it was a real person, an illusion, or some other magical power, it was enough to show that his strength was not simple.
If he really wanted to take action, he would be afraid that he would not be able to defeat the opponent, and would even be attacked by the opponent.
And according to Qin Shaoyou's guess, this person should not have murderous intentions towards him now. Otherwise, there would be no need to disguise himself as Zuo Qianhu, kidnap him directly for torture, or kill Sohundupo. Wouldn't it be better?
"He probably didn't want to alert Zuo Qianhu and put Zuo Qianhu on guard. This is consistent with Zuo Qianhu's prediction, and I may also be able to use this to test his identity and origin..."
Since this person has no intention of killing him for the time being, Qin Shaoyou does not intend to take risks.
Let’s take a quick look at the situation first.
Of course, you still have to be prepared.
If something goes wrong, it's easy to escape, but you can't let the person pretending to be Zuo Qianhu find out.
Qin Shaoyou was thinking when he suddenly felt a heat coming from his wrist.
He remained calm and just glanced quickly out of the corner of his eye.
A small red snake was coiled around his right wrist, giving him a familiar aura.
This is... the Snake General Order?!
How did Snake General Ling really turn into a snake?
Is it the influence of illusion? Or...
Qin Shaoyou suddenly remembered the sleepiness and daze he felt before 'Zuo Qianhu' appeared.
So this is actually a dream?
What the other party used was not an illusion, but a method of hypnosis into dreams?
No wonder the Soul-Slaying Sword is unreal when held, because it is simply the sword in a dream...
However, Snake General Ling fell into a dream and gave me a reminder. Does this mean that the Jiutian Demon Patriarch Statue has been aware of it and is ready to respond and provide support?
As soon as Qin Shaoyou thought of this, he saw the little red snake on his right wrist raised his head and spat out a red letter at him.
It seems to be saying: You guessed it right.
When Qin Shaoyou saw this, he immediately felt relieved, but he still did not act rashly.
This was just a dream. It would not be of much use if he killed the fake Zuo Qianhu in the dream. On the contrary, he would be easily targeted by stronger enemies.
And since the other party can control dreams, if they really fight, the situation will probably be very unfavorable to themselves.
It's better to keep going.
'Zuo Qianhu' seemed not to be able to see the red snake on Qin Shaoyou's wrist, and thought to himself: "Zuo Zixiong is still as cautious as ever..."
He did not doubt Qin Shaoyou and continued to ask as Zuo Qianhu: "Then where did you find that person? And why did you think of informing me?"
"Reporting to your lord, when we were patrolling the night last night, we discovered that a ghost market appeared in the city..."
Qin Shaoyou told the story of how he discovered Liu Shuyuan, including the wells, earth veins, etc.
In addition to Qin Shaoyou himself, many night watchmen in Mianyuan County Town Demon Division have seen and experienced these things.
Qin Shaoyou couldn't guarantee that the fake Zuo Qianhu just fell into his dream, so he simply told the story, but concealed the content related to Liu Shuyuan's identity.
Liu Shuyuan's identity is the key, and it is something only he and Zuo Qianhu know.
Even if the fake Zuo Qianhu guesses Liu Shuyuan's identity, as long as Qin Shaoyou shows ignorance, he will not get into trouble.
This is why Zuo Qianhu asked him to keep it a secret.
There are some secrets that will kill people if they know them...
In the process of telling these words, Qin Shaoyou also quietly activated the two talents of [Bright Eyesight] and [Listening].
He wanted to see if these two talents could still be used in dreams, and if he could see and hear the real situation.
Can you...see the true face of the fake Zuo Qianhu?
Under the effect of [Bright Eyes], Qin Shaoyou saw that the face of 'Zuo Qianhu' was chaotic and faceless.
Looking at his body shape, it is also constantly changing and has never been fixed.
Is this person's strength so strong that he can hide it from [Mingmu]? Or does he not have a fixed physical body?
Qin Shaoyou suddenly thought of someone.
The mysterious monk hiding behind Tiger and Ruan Xiangxiang...Master Enoki, meet the monk tomorrow!
Could this fake Zuo Qianhu be him?
By following him, can we find out the mysterious nobleman behind the scenes?
