The paper-figure-like girl pushed open the maroon wooden door, bowed slightly, and made an invitation gesture: "Sir, please come in."
Qin Yao crossed the threshold and walked into the room. The first thing he saw was a large vertical bronze mirror about three meters high and one meter wide. It clearly illuminated him up and down, and the clarity was no less than
Glass lenses from later generations.
Outside the door, the girl reached out and closed the wooden door, leaned her back against the wall, looked forward, and stopped.
Inside the door, Qin Yao could clearly see through the flashing picture in the bronze mirror. There was no charming girl there. She was clearly a paper figurine with bright and heavy makeup!
"What is your wish?" Without any warning, the reflection in the bronze mirror suddenly asked.
Qin Yao's face remained as usual, and he pondered for a moment: "I want world peace."
Figure in the mirror: "???"
"puff."
"Hahaha."
Seeing the confused look on the person's face in the mirror, Xia Yu laughed heartily.
"Is it funny?" The face of the person in the mirror darkened instantly and he said coldly.
"Sorry, sorry." Xia Yu explained: "It's not his answer that's funny, nor that you're funny, but his answer combined with your confused look is funny."
The atmosphere that was supposed to be scary and weird was instantly destroyed by its smile, and the painting style suddenly changed.
"Shut up." Qin Yao shouted, then raised his head with an apologetic look: "Don't worry, it has been trapped in the Dead Sea for too long. When it came out, it was a little hard to control... Let's continue."
Dead Sea??
After listening to his words, the man in the mirror became even more confused.
Is the Dead Sea he is talking about the Dead Sea he knows?
Where did this guy come from?
For no reason, the person in the mirror suddenly felt guilty.
Don’t touch anything unclean again!
"Are you...a human or a ghost?"
Qin Yao was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Shouldn't I ask you this? Why are you asking me?"
"I know that I am not a human being, but I don't know if you are a human being." The man in the mirror said.
Qin Yao waved his hand: "Can a ghost have such strong yang energy as me?"
"No one can afford a pet from the Dead Sea." The man in the mirror said firmly.
Xia Yu, who was giggling, suddenly froze.
pet?
Another pet?
How do I look like a pet?!
In the blink of an eye, this sentence broke Xia Yu's guard.
Coupled with the harm that Yu Daocheng had brought to him, this was a double trauma.
"Forget it, I'm not here to talk about pets." Just when there was a fire in his heart and he was about to burst out, Qin Yao suddenly waved his hand and said loudly.
Xia Yu: "..."
You should explain it.
You suddenly stopped talking. It feels like acquiescence!
"I said……"
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." The man in the mirror always remembered that it was laughing at his hatred, and deliberately interrupted when it opened its mouth: "I can't fulfill my wish to maintain world peace, and there is no one in this world who can.
To satisfy the existence of this wish, you should change to a more realistic one."
"I said you..." After he finished speaking, Xia Yu spoke again.
"Shut up, it's not your time to speak now." The man in the mirror interrupted again.
Xia Yu was so angry that his liver ached, and he transformed into the size of a millstone and hit the mirror with his head.
"Uh-huh."
Just when its head touched the mirror, a wave of water ripples suddenly appeared on the mirror.
It plunged inside, but the shadow inside stepped out and stood in front of Qin Yao.
"Let me out, let me out..."
In the mirror world, in the boundless darkness, the body of the summer fish keeps getting bigger and bigger, roaring angrily, but no matter how it screams, the sound cannot be transmitted outside the mirror.
"Now we can have a good chat." The man in the mirror looked at Qin Yao and said with a smile.
Qin Yao looked at Xia Yu flying around like a headless fly in the mirror and nodded: "It is indeed much quieter... What is your name?"
Man in the Mirror:"……"
"When I say chat, I mean talk about your wishes, not small talk!
Qin Yao shrugged: "I don't mean to chat with you, I just want to know how to call you."
The person in the mirror stared at him for a while, shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter what you call him. What matters is what you want now."
"I understood a truth a long time ago. There is no free lunch in the world. All gifts in life have a price tag." Qin Yao also became serious and asked: "I heard that you are very smart, but before that,
What I want to know is what price I need to pay for my wish."
"Eternal God Emperor"
The person in the mirror paused slightly: "I can't tell you this, otherwise the spell won't work."
Qin Yao took out the Jinlan bag from his arms, came to the standing mirror, reached out and patted the frame of the bronze mirror and said: "If you are unwilling to cooperate, then I will have to take this bronze mirror away."
The face of the person in the mirror suddenly changed. He hesitated for a long time and sighed: "Put away your magic weapon. I will tell you the truth."
Qin Yao put away his pocket and looked at the other party quietly, waiting for an answer.
Tianxiang Pavilion is very strange today, and the person in the mirror is also very strange, but strange things often mean that there is evil to be found.
For Qin Yao, who is now "poor", anyone who can give him some kindness is worth waiting for!
"You are right, there is no free lunch in the world."
The person in the mirror took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The price for fulfilling your wish is...
When the wish is fulfilled, the soul of the person who made the wish will be sucked into the magic mirror, replacing the previous person in the mirror and becoming a new person in the mirror.
The last person in the mirror will be sent to the body of the person who made the wish and live as him."
"Is it so weird?" Qin Yao looked surprised and turned to look at the bronze mirror: "Where did this mirror come from?"
"I don't know where this mirror came from. I only know that Tianxiang Pavilion appeared half a year ago. In the past six months, it has received three guests almost every day." The man in the mirror said.
Qin Yao was silent, silently thinking about the interests behind this strange thing.
He always believes that if there is no benefit, don't start early. As long as you clarify the interest relationship in a matter, you can probably grasp the context of the matter.
The person in the mirror looked at his thoughtful expression, his lips trembled, and he said softly: "Do you feel like this is a prank?"
"mischief?"
The person in the mirror nodded vigorously: "I feel like this is like a prank by gods or devils, to tease others, satisfy their own empty hearts, or simply to pass the time."
Qin Yao thought for a while and said with a smile: "You'll know after you try it."
"How to try?" The person in the mirror hesitated.
"It's very simple. As long as we close the Tianxiang Pavilion, the other party will jump out..."
