Chapter 438: Is he pretending? No, no, it’s impossible!
Good guy.
So tough!
The four people in the City Lord's Mansion were shocked by Xu Xiaoshou's determination.
This guy behaves too much like a human being.
Even though just a moment ago, everyone thought that Xu Xiaoshou was definitely the body of the ghost beast who took responsibility for his actions, they couldn't help but feel doubtful in their hearts because of his resounding decisiveness.
Maybe, the vigil was really a mistake?
Watching the night's face was cloudy and uncertain.
What Xu Xiaoshou said makes sense.
He really couldn't refute it.
Tonight, my series of interrogations about this guy were indeed filled with too many subjective emotions that even Vigil himself was not aware of.
"No, I wouldn't be like this on weekdays!"
"Why did things change tonight? What went wrong?"
Staying awake wondering.
Just forget about your own mistakes first.
But after this series of questions, Xu Xiaoshou's answers were not inappropriate.
Even before the final rejection, he showed everyone that he was powerful enough to kill the throne.
Not just one serving!
Under such circumstances.
Everyone had no choice but to believe that for a spirit refiner with such a spirit of indomitable spirit to cooperate with the interrogation to this extent, it was really the limit.
Xu Xiaoshou has indeed done a very good job.
No matter how demanding you are, it is probably difficult to achieve any other result.
"'Raging Titan'?"
Watching the night murmured, surprisingly not angry.
He knows it too.
If Xu Xiaoshou is really the body of a ghost beast, even after asking this question tonight, this guy is still flawless.
Then, there is no point in continuing to persist.
One side is a disguise with a perfect plan, and the other side is only one-sided information. Under the comparison of the two, it is impossible to find Xu Xiaoshou's tail.
And if this kid is really innocent...
To be honest, Shouye felt that what he had done was too much.
Maybe if it were him, the final decision might be even more decisive than that of Xu Xiaoshou.
"I'll just trust you for once."
His indifferent eyes fell on Xu Xiaoshou's angry face and he spoke softly.
"Trusted, passive value, +1."
Done?
Xu Xiaoshou almost felt relieved, but suddenly realized.
Perhaps, this is the last level of vigil.
Once you relax, you are really hiding something.
And this "what", at this moment, I believe everyone can clearly understand it.
"Whether you believe it or not is your own business, what does it have to do with me?"
Xu Xiaoshou spat, but he did not dare to go too far, and just said gloomily: "If you don't investigate Zhang Taiying's matter, but instead come to mess with me, it will be very uncomfortable."
"To be honest, it's hard for anyone to trust you."
Watching the night smiled slightly, without comment.
In my heart, I finally let go of that doubt for the time being.
It's so peaceful.
This guy really acted too much like an ordinary person who had been wronged.
"Are you pretending..."
The crow's feet at the corners of Shou Ye's eyes were wrinkled.
But no matter how hard you squint, you can't detect even a trace of something wrong in Xu Xiaoshou's words and deeds.
"That's all."
"Just leave it at that!"
Looking at the night, I realized that it was too late for the vigil.
If we continue to investigate, there is no chance that another person will be killed.
"I can believe you, but you should know better if you don't show your so-called 'violent giant'."
Vigil said meaningfully: "As a suspected body of ghost beasts, even if it is 'suspected', you may live under the surveillance of red clothes in the future."
"oh?"
Xu Xiaoshou's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Really?"
"nature."
Vigil responded.
But it felt like there was something wrong with this boy's tone.
Sure enough, when Xu Xiaoshou heard his promise, he was so happy that he slapped his thigh.
"That would be great!"
"With the protection of red clothes... Bah, surveillance, if any ghosts and beasts continue to come to me, you all have to take action?"
"Standing idly by is probably a grave sin, right?"
Xu Xiaofeng was counting with his fingers.
"Do I have a special physique? One is Tianxuanmen, and the other is City Lord's Mansion."
"How much time has passed, and with my physique that attracts ghost beasts, I can't even sleep for a few more nights before a new ghost beast comes to my door."
"But, if you have the protection of red clothes..."
The faces of several people in the City Lord's Mansion suddenly changed when they heard Xu Xiaoshou's muttering.
Did Xu Xiaoshou really come into contact with ghost beasts before?
More than one?
No wonder.
No wonder this guy could calmly kill the ghost beast transformed by Zhang Taiying.
It would take someone else to do this, and it would be impossible to meet them all.
Before the fight even started, the man himself was frightened and fell to the ground.
After all, the name of the ghost beast makes even the throne look down upon it!
Can……
Listen to what this guy said, what is going on?
Has he already started thinking about red clothes?
How big a heart this guy has!
Before the matter in front of him was over, he had already begun to plan what he called "being monitored". How could he make better use of it?
Everyone in Vigil felt bad.
Xu Xiaoshou was the first person he had ever seen who could use Hongyi as a bodyguard.
At this moment, he suddenly didn't know whether his previous "surveillance" with a threatening tone was good or bad.
"No, maybe Xu Xiaoshou is still pretending?"
"He wants to defraud me and provoke me to retract my statement and stop monitoring him?"
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Wei Ye's mind, and he thought of this possibility.
At this moment, Xu Xiaoshou had finished crossing his fingers and raised his head. His eyes were trying his best to hide it, but some excitement could still be seen.
"How many people do you want to send to me, just for surveillance?"
Xu Xiaoshou calmed down and said: "Monitor the ghost beast body, even if it is suspected, there is a possibility of an outbreak, right?"
"I think you, senior, are very capable."
"Thrones like those of Zhang Taiying are rubbish..."
As Xu Xiaoshou said, he suddenly felt a chill running down his spine. He quickly turned around and looked at the people on one side, and said in a panic: "I'm not talking about you, no, haha, you must not sit in the same seat, haha."
"I mean……"
He looked at Vigil again: "Those at the throne level may not be able to stop a ghost beast body as powerful as mine, right?"
"If you want to monitor me, you can come with a few more, really!"
Xu Xiaoshou looked sincere.
Watching the night, I felt like my head was feeling swollen.
This is the reincarnation of Dog Skin Plaster, you Xu Xiaoshou!
How can you do it so that every sentence is stuck on the point where others feel most uncomfortable?
It is obviously a special "surveillance", and those being monitored should be frightened.
Why has everything changed when it comes to you, Xu Xiaoshou?
"Being cursed, passive value, +1."
Vigil was speechless.
He was unable to refute.
Surveillance?
It’s not like being in prison at this moment, and it’s not like being in prison at this moment!
"Um?"
Facing the silence of the vigil, Xu Xiaoshou's reaction was also silent.
He just tilted his head slightly and made a nasal sound.
Vigil immediately felt his head hurt even more.
This guy, even if he makes a slight move, is so hateful, disgusting, and disgusting!
"Being remembered, passive value, +1."
"Where is your friend?"
Watching the night suddenly turned a 180-degree turn, and everyone was stunned.
"What friend?"
Xu Xiaoshou was stunned.
But I was secretly stunned.
This old guy is really the one he has ever fooled, the hardest to deal with, and the one with the clearest logic.
Even if everyone is confused and confused by him.
But this old guy, every time it seems to be over, he will find himself in a new questioning point where it is most difficult for him to answer and where he is most likely to make mistakes.
friend?
What other friends could I have that Vigil would like?
Of course there is only Xingugu!
At that time, at the gate of the city lord's mansion, it was because Xin Gugu might have leaked it, and he didn't know if he smelled the scent of ghost beasts, that he realized the vigil.
Although this problem fell on Xin Gugu's head.
But if you don’t answer well, you will probably be greatly implicated!
"The one I met at the City Lord's Mansion, holding the golden Zen staff, is your friend." Vigil said.
Xu Xiaoshou's inner thoughts turned out to be true.
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
But Dudu choked one kind of thing.
Judging from the repeated contacts, this vigilante must be a very irritable person.
How could he be let in if he really smelled Xin Gugu's ghostly beast scent?
Therefore, when he was outside at that time, he suspected Xin Gugu just because of his experience.
Or……
Xu Xiaoshou listened to the words of the vigil, and clearly remembered the "golden Zen staff" very deeply.
What he is eyeing should be this "controlling object" that can seal the aura of ghost beasts?
Xu Xiaoshou knew about "making Xu objects" because he and Xin Gugu once had a detailed discussion about the topic of ghost beast bodies in the manor.
Although this guy didn't say much, the existence of the "manufactured goods" was still revealed.
As a redcoat, Vigil should have a deep understanding of this thing.
At that time, he would also keep an eye on Xin Gugu and then start to suspect Xin Gugu.
but!
As long as he didn't really smell the scent of ghost beasts, Xu Xiaoshou would have a way to get over it!
There are so many thoughts in my mind, but they are only real for a moment.
After hearing what Vigil had said, Xu Xiaoshou rolled his eyes, as if he remembered something, and said casually: "He, he doesn't know."
"have no idea?"
Such a casual tone made Vigilante confused.
Originally, in his expectation, if it was related to ghost beasts, then this young throne with special fluctuations should also be involved.
Because to be honest, compared to Xu Xiaoshou, based on his experience of vigil, Xin Gugu's existence is more like a ghost beast's body.
But at this moment...
Xu Xiaoshou's tone of voice was like treating an ordinary friend, which actually made him feel suspicious.
"Pretending?"
"Is it just pretending again?"
Such thoughts still flashed through Vigil's mind.
But he finally gave up.
It can't be fake.
If he was really pretending, then the young man in front of him should not be a young man.
With such a deep city and such natural acting skills, even if he was vigilant, he felt that at this moment, he would not be able to have such a perfect cover up after asking this question.
"have no idea?"
Watching the night also said casually: "You came in together, don't you know where he went?"
"Isn't that right, senior?"
Xu Xiaoshou suddenly opened his mouth: "Is it possible that he has to poop and pee, and I have to follow him? After all, we are all adults, and I am not his father or mother, so how can I keep an eye on him?"
Watching the night said directly: "I saw him following you out before?"
When he was in the banquet hall, he was one of the few people who could notice the movements of the whole place.
Xin Gugu and Xu Xiaoshou, one behind the other, said they were both going to poop and pee. He was the first to stay awake and didn't believe it.
"Have it?"
Xu Xiaoshou was confused, "I remember that he disappeared after coming in, and I don't know where he went to fool around with this guy..."
Indeed.
Vigil verified step by step.
Indeed, as soon as the two of them came in, one went to the wine table and the other mingled with the young people in the ring. Maybe Xu Xiaoshou really didn't notice?
"No way?"
Xu Xiaoshou suddenly widened his eyes: "Could it be that, senior, you really suspect that he is the body of a ghost beast?"
"Did you have two suspicions in one night? No, three suspicions?"
"To be honest, I haven't known him for a long time..."
Xu Xiaoshou said evasively.
It's like an ordinary person's excuse that they don't want to get into big trouble.
In fact, he really only met Xin Gugu when he entered Tiansang City. Indeed, this friendship lasted for less than a few days.
Vigil is still thinking about it.
Xu Xiaoshou tried again and said, "Could it be that you heard it wrong again?"
"There should be a junior sister in my banquet room. Why don't you go and have a look? Is it possible that she is also one?"
"Perhaps, they are not only ghost beasts born from different dimensional spaces, but also ancient powers that swallowed the source of the birth of the dimensional space world? Are they still in a sealed state at this moment?"
"To be honest, I have always felt that my junior sister is very weird..."
Xu Xiaoshou looked very serious.
But Vigil smelled a strong smell of ridicule.
"snort!"
He threw up his sleeves and almost got so angry that he left on the spot.
But looking at Xu Xiaoshou's various physiological reactions, they don't look like the fluctuations that would occur if he lied and deceived.
No solution……
The vigil was exhausted.
If you can't even figure out Xin Gugu, you really have nothing to ask.
That’s all.
Xu Xiaoshou is so powerful.
From now on, if he really wants to find out that this guy is a demonic beast, he will be the first one to keep vigil and kill him.
Instead, he had to present a trophy for "acting as an emperor" in person before cutting off this kid's head.
So true!
It's just... so true!
It's still so real that it makes people wonder if it's just faking it.
But if it is said to be perfect "truth", Vigil will actually become suspicious.
But Xu Xiaoshou...
It’s so flesh and blood!
That just right decision, that slightly innocuous flaw in the language.
On the contrary, it makes this "truth" a little more smoky and no longer a perfect lie of illusory idealism.
"Lost."
After asking all night, Shouye realized that he didn't ask anything.
Not only that, he was also questioned so much that he directly overturned all the conclusions before the war, and only found out that the dead Zhang Taiying was the body of a ghost beast, which was an unreasonable fact.
Can it be useful?
Everyone is dead...
At this point, no matter what the outcome is, essentially, I am a complete loser.
Vigil sighed.
His problem is over.
Xu Xiaoshou passed the test.
"well!"
As soon as he lowered his head, Vigil immediately turned around.
He didn't bother to say hello to Fu Zhi and others, so he went directly back to the banquet living room to explain the last things.
"senior."
Xu Xiaoshou stopped him as if he was not afraid of death.
"What?"
Watching the night turned back angrily.
He hated the boy in front of him from the bottom of his heart, but also loved him from the bottom of his heart.
so amazing!
This is the best combination of mind, talent, and strength that he has ever seen throughout the entire continent, no one!
"Senior, are you leaving?" Xu Xiaoshou seemed to still have something to say.
"right."
Watch the night and cherish the words like gold.
He felt that the amount of conversation he had with this boy tonight had been exhausted, and if he continued talking, he would only be angry.
After all, I no longer have any problems.
"I should be fine, right?" Xu Xiaoshou asked.
"You are still suspicious!"
Stay vigil and drink.
"Then my friend is still suspected?"
Watching the night was startled, then nodded slowly: "Yes."
"Where is my junior sister?"
Shouye's face darkened, thinking that something was wrong with Xu Xiaoshou.
If you keep talking, something will happen!
He didn't want to talk anymore.
He flew up directly and flew towards the direction of the banquet hall.
Xu Xiaoshou rolled his eyes angrily.
Then he held his mouth and shouted loudly:
"Senior, I think there is something wrong with you!"
"You should have a problem with your nose. It may be rhinitis. Go see a doctor quickly!"
"..."
Watching the night stumbled as he was flying in the void, and almost got so angry that he flew back and beat Xu Xiaoshou wildly.
But in the end I endured it.
That’s all.
After all, I have wrongly blamed someone, and not apologizing is already too much. If the news spreads, Hong Yi's reputation will not be very good if he beats the person after saying a few words.
"Being forgiven, passive value, +1."
"Ah."
"None of them are accurate."
Xu Xiaoshou sneered, as if he was a villain after winning a battle.
He turned his head and looked at the four people in the City Lord's Mansion.
"brush!"
There was a soft sound, and the four of them took a step back.
"cough?"
Xu Xiaoshou immediately looked a little embarrassed.
Why is this?
You four thrones are still afraid of me, a mere innate?
What are you afraid of?
"I am a good person."
Xu Xiaoshou stretched his neck and said in disbelief: "I am really not the body of a ghost beast. Brother Fu, you won't believe that old guy's lies, will you?"
old man……
Several people in the City Lord's Mansion twitched their lips.
"Being admired, passive value, +4."
Lao Fu Zhi watched Xu Xiaoshou turn around and immediately felt the same headache that he felt during the vigil.
From the moment they met, Xu Xiaoshou brought a shocking explosion of flowers, and he knew that the young man in front of him was anything but simple.
But I never expected that the extraordinary side of this guy that I expected was actually his normal form.
That smooth talk, that method of blowing up his own city lord's palace to pieces...
This is called not simple!
Compared with these, the sea of flowers?
That’s bullshit!
"Not to the point, not to the point of..."
Fu Zhi waved his hands and said, "I have believed that Brother Shou is innocent from the beginning to the end."
"Of course, Hongyi has his own rules. Routine interrogations are usually unavoidable. Everyone can take a step back and relax." He started to act like a good guy.
"Of course I know the rules in red clothes, but this old man is too subjective. He preconceptions about everything, making it seem like I have done something wrong." Xu Xiaoshou nodded.
These comments from your own people are sometimes crucial.
It's hard to say, but it can still reach the ears of Vigil, which will alleviate some of his suspicions!
"I did something wrong..."
Fu Zhi and others looked at each other.
From the corner of his eye, he could see the entire city lord's palace that was completely blown to pieces.
Except for those places protected by special spiritual formations, there are not many surviving buildings here.
"Haha, of course Brother Shou didn't do anything wrong."
"Brother Vigil is absolutely right. The murderous attempt on the throne you encountered in the City Lord's Mansion was indeed due to the negligence of the guards."
"We deserve compensation."
Now Xu Xiaoshou was embarrassed.
He looked at Lao Fuzhi's smile and thought that all of these old guys were really smiling.
"Not to the point, not to the point of..."
"After all, it was my fault that the city lord's palace was blown up."
"Of course, I know that Brother Fu is one of our own, and I definitely won't care. So, I won't say any kind words like compensation."
Fu Zhi's smile immediately solidified.
do not!
We can go back to the same size!
"right?"
As Xu Xiaoshou said this, he stepped forward and put a hand on his brother Fu's shoulder.
"hehe."
What else can I do if I have to pay?
He could only give out a bitter smile with a smile on his face but not a smile on his face.
"good."
…
Banquet room...
Pooh.
On a barren, barren, scorched land.
Unkempt but excited savages were gathered around, chattering.
What's missing here is a bonfire.
It's a grand event.
"Did you hear that explosion?" the savages discussed.
"Are you blind? You couldn't see the loud roar just now?"
"That's a battle for the throne!"
"The key is, did you hear the words that the senior in red just said before he left?"
"I surmise that the one who can make him let go of his responsibilities in the spiritual formation must be the presence of ghost beasts in the city lord's mansion!"
"Ghost beast?"
"What is a ghost beast?"
There are many knowledgeable people present, but most people really don’t have much exposure to the secrets of ghosts and beasts.
"I don't know. I heard that they are terrifying evil beings in legends. They are some terrifying devils that can cause turmoil in the continent."
"But the fact that a decent force like the City Lord's Mansion can mix in with ghost beasts also shows that the current situation is not simple!"
"Can……"
"Didn't Princess Fu just now say that it was a battle between Zhang Taiying and Xu Xiaoshou?" someone wondered.
"Zhang Taiying and Xu Xiaoshou? Are they crazy? Who said it was really Fu Yinhong?"
"Something's wrong. Could it be that there really is a ghost beast among these two guys..."
"Xu Xiaoshou! That must be Xu Xiaoshou. This guy looks like a ghost beast. He has a jade face and a white face. He makes people jealous just by looking at him. He must be a ghost beast!"
"Ahem, ghost beasts shouldn't be extremely ugly..."
"..."
The crowd of onlookers who were originally in the banquet living room seemed to be peaceful people after the explosion.
They managed to survive under the protection of several throne realms. The only thing they could do at this moment was to eat the invisible melon.
A long time passed.
After watching the battle and asking questions, Vigil suddenly returned to the ruins of the banquet hall.
"came back."
Everyone was overjoyed to see the old man come back.
But this guy had a terrifying sword mark from his shoulder to his feet, and his clothes were blown to pieces, which really shocked everyone.
"Ghost beasts, so scary?"
Vigil didn't say much. He glanced at the void behind him, strode forward immediately, gave a few instructions to the great spiritual formation masters, and ran away without looking back.
As soon as the person left, Xu Xiaoshou led the four thrones and fell to the ground.
"Being watched, passive value, +1220."
Just like a dream, the familiar feeling of the information bar swiping across the screen came to Xu Xiaoshou, who was so relieved that he really wanted to scream.
"Junior sister, please leave!"
He shouted, then suddenly paused: "Oh, by the way, have you got the quota for the White Cave?"
Mu Zixi ran over in response, her twin tails bouncing.
"We should wait for them to announce the quota for the White Grotto, right?"
"wait?"
Xu Xiaoshou looked at this girl.
"Yes, we are all waiting for you."
"wait for me?"
"Yes, after all, you account for the majority of the quota in the White Grotto." Mu Zixi said with a smile.
"Big head, how much?"
Xu Xiaoshou patted the little girl's head and asked.
Before Mu Zixi could respond, he felt the murderous eyes coming towards him from the void.
When he raised his eyes, the crowd was filled with scarlet eyes.
