【399】Could the mysterious man be the incarnation of a god?
"Gudu~"
The shopkeeper quickly poured a cup of herbal tea and handed it over enthusiastically: "Sir, please use it slowly!"
Arthur politely thanked him, pretended to be extremely thirsty, reached out and took the herbal tea and drank it impatiently.
The former Speaker knew very well that the shopkeeper's approach seemed to be a way to attract customers, but in fact it was an active spying.
Based on the consistent behavior of the Qisheng Society, there is a high probability that the opponent has already turned into a "parasitic puppet".
Under the influence of the parasitic puppet, the host's behavior will change subtly, and eventually it will do exactly what the Qishenghui tells them to do.
The most terrifying thing is that from beginning to end, the host will not realize that he is being secretly controlled.
"Sir, what do you want to buy?"
The shopkeeper's voice drifted over.
From the corner of Arthur's eye, he saw that the other party was secretly looking at him while he was talking, and he saw his feet from head to head.
How could a normal shop owner do this?
It is indeed a parasitic puppet!
The purpose of this person taking the initiative to bring tea is to facilitate observation!
no doubt.
The task of the store owner is to observe every customer who enters the store. If he notices anything wrong, he will immediately report it to his superiors.
The person who controls the parasitic puppet within the Prayer Society will permanently abandon this place.
Arthur put down the cup and said what he had already prepared: "A No. 7 wrench."
at the same time.
He sighed helplessly in his heart: "It's not a 'dark nest', it's just a 'bird's nest'! I guess I have to stay there for a while."
The so-called "dark nest" is a "slang" for the believers of the alien god, which means the official stronghold of the alien god organization, and there are usually the believers of the alien god stationed there for a long time.
As for the "bird's nest", it is equivalent to a "post office", which is a temporary stronghold used by believers of the alien gods to transmit messages.
In order to guard against official sorcerers, bird's nests are often nested layer by layer, and information will be officially sent out after passing through two or three bird's nests.
If this is an important bird's nest, it is not unusual to have four or five levels of nesting.
This means that he must first find out the location of each bird's nest before he can find out the members of the Qisheng Society, and this will take a long time.
Arthur sighed precisely because of this.
Next to the shelf not far away.
The shop owner lowered his head to look for the wrench and asked with a smile: "Sir, is there anything at home that needs repairing?"
Arthur said "Yeah" without thinking: "The water pipe in the kitchen is leaking."
The shop owner paused for a moment, and his tone was slightly doubtful: "I remember that the one who tightened the water pipe should be a No. 6 wrench, right?"
Arthur knew immediately upon hearing this that this was a test by the parasitic puppet.
This thing is affected by parasites and has a very suspicious character. If you act hesitant, it will definitely arouse its suspicion.
He said in a conclusive tone: "The pipes in my house are relatively thick, so I use a No. 7 wrench."
The shopkeeper said "Oh": "Maybe I remembered it wrong."
Arthur came prepared and added: "By the way, get me another rubber waterproof gasket. The gasket at home has no elasticity and may leak."
There are enough details in this sentence, and the probability of winning the other party's trust is very high.
as expected.
The shopkeeper replied "Okay" and didn't ask any more questions.
Arthur breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he is a powerful person at the level of a mysterious master, the mysterious man's methods are too terrifying. This is the first task assigned by the other party, and he really doesn't dare to mess it up.
at this time.
Arthur suddenly sensed that a strange ripple appeared at a certain location in his spiritual sea, and then a mark appeared out of thin air.
The aura carried by the mark clearly belongs to the mysterious person.
This moment.
The former Speaker was completely shocked.
God is above!
What method is this?
Stuffing the mark directly into my spiritual sea, no trace can be detected. Even the powerful Xuandu doesn't have this ability, right?
Who is the mysterious man?
Arthur was so shocked that there was an obvious look of shock on his face.
Fortunately, the shop owner was engrossed in rummaging around and didn't notice the change in his expression, otherwise this guy would definitely be exposed.
soon.
The shopkeeper dug out the gaskets and wrenches and quoted the price: "Sir, Chenghui forty-eight copper coins!"
At this time, Arthur had suppressed his shock and suppressed the shock in his heart.
He quickly took out his money bag, carefully counted out a large handful of copper coins, and placed them on the counter: "Put the money here."
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Sir, walk slowly."
Arthur picked up the wrench and gasket, quickly opened the door and left the store.
*
Tai'an Xiaoling Realm.
Qinglin City.
Lin Xuebin's family.
Arthur's mind was filled with extreme shock, and it was no surprise that he was captured by the Secret Puppet Seal, and then passed along the soul link.
The secret soul and puppet technique derived from the second-level Secret World Seal has more than doubled its concealment compared to the first-level.
This powerful man at the level of mystic master was hit by a secret technique, but he didn't feel anything at all.
Cheng Han sensed the other party's emotions and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart: "Isn't it the method of star transmission? As for being so shocked."
In the field of vision that only he could see, the stars in the sky slowly disappeared.
The extraordinary mark just sent over was forcibly inserted into the opponent's spiritual sea through the star representing Arthur, or the connection.
There is no way around it.
Across thousands of kilometers, the Hidden Soul Secret Puppet Technique cannot bring down its power from across the air, and must rely on the divine skill of the Omniscient Eye.
After Cheng Han frightened his younger brother, he casually complained: "Before I returned to Tai'an, the Tai'an Black Armored Army was gone. Not long after I stayed in Tai'an, even the Tai'an Xuan Pavilion was gone."
This self-deprecating statement is actually not very funny.
The group of people in the reception room all laughed as if they had heard a very funny joke.
Yu Xianglong, the newly appointed Grand Consul, accidentally or unintentionally told a piece of gossip: "I heard that there is a middle-level Xuanshi named 'Zong Chang' in the Xuan Pavilion.
"Some time ago, Mr. Xuanshi canceled the marriage contract of a wife. Not long after, the lady died of illness."
Cheng Han unconsciously squinted his eyes.
He remembered the name Zongchang clearly.
When he took office as the chief consul of Anhua City, he reorganized the officialdom and sent a large number of officials to prison.
At that time, some bureaucrats were frightened and approached Zongchang through nepotism. The man passed a message to Zongchang through the guard Xuanshi.
But he ignored it, and the two sides ended up at odds.
Qian Qingqing raised her eyebrows and added: "Isn't this lady the cousin of the former director of the Finance Department of Anhua City?"
The "cousin" the little girl calls her is the person involved in nepotism.
Yu Xianglong nodded: "Exactly!"
Liu Yidao chuckled: "Master Zong Xuan must have heard about the illustrious reputation of the Deputy Palace Master, so he would vent his anger on this poor lady."
Qian Qingqing rarely cursed: "What a bastard!"
Even a fool can tell that the so-called "died of illness" was probably caused by being quietly killed. This shows how vicious Zong Chang is.
Cheng Han was silent for a moment and said seriously: "Master Zongxuan did something wrong!"
This is a personal attitude expressed in his capacity as deputy palace lord, and with his strong authority, these words carry a very heavy weight.
Yu Xianglong immediately agreed: "Master Zongxuan is indeed wrong!"
This is also a statement.
There is a subtext hidden in it, and this sentence will definitely spread as quickly as possible until it reaches Zong Chang's ears.
Liu Yidao muttered "Awesome" in his heart.
Of course, the director understood that with just a few words, a profound scholar could be cornered easily.
Who would have thought that the young inspector general a year ago would be so powerful now?

Thousands of kilometers away.
Zhuo'an Xiaoling Realm.
Arthur walked a certain distance and then carefully touched the mark in the sea of spirit with his heart.
The next second.
The former speaker was stunned.
Because the mark has an incredible name - the Seal of Deduction.
It's also because the effect of this mark is incredible - it can search for who has entered the bird's nest just by relying on its extraordinary aura.
At this point.
Arthur still didn't understand that the mysterious man was dissatisfied that his squatting method was too slow, so he specially gave him the Seal of Deduction.
He took a breath, and the awe in his heart became even stronger: "I'm afraid even Xuandu doesn't have such means. Who is this mysterious man?"
A thought immediately popped into Arthur's mind: "Could it be an incarnation descended by a certain god?"
This bizarre idea startled him even.
But the former speaker feels that this is not impossible.
