It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

"what!"

When asked by Xia Li, Xiang Yi finally remembered what he was doing here.

She came here with good intentions to help... No, no, no, she came here to temporarily suspend her plan to undermine Fang Shengsheng's cultivation foundation, to avoid alerting the enemy, so that she could implement a better plan for the future.

"this is for you."

"If you wear it on your chest for three days, it will improve your cultivation aptitude."

Xiang Yi took out a palm-sized brocade box from his arms and handed it over.

Handing it over and explaining...

"You can't take it off even when you're bathing or sleeping. This is something Manman specially prepared for new ghosts entering the mansion. It has many benefits!"

The beautiful Yinhun had an expression that said "take it quickly, you've made a fortune", but it was a pity that her acting skills were not very good. She might be able to fool ordinary people, but her performance in front of Xia Li was not good enough.

The other person's eyes were slightly evasive, and he relied on slightly exaggerated facial expressions and loud voices to build up his courage.

It is clear.

This is a newbie who is not very good at lying. He is not even good at the most basic operation of lying with his eyes open...

and.

Xia Li had already learned everything from the maid Xiao Min. Combining the previous and the next, he completely understood Xiang Yi's thoughts.

——I didn’t expect this guy to help me?

——It’s quite interesting…

The girl knew what was going on in her mind, but she had a confused expression on her face.

Confused but also with a hint of vigilance and alertness, he hesitated for a moment before taking the brocade box. The beautiful ghost didn't realize that Xia Li was pretending and thought he was completely unaware of the situation.

"It was given to me by Lord Lu Man. Are you sure?"

"Of course, this is a good thing. It can harmonize the Yin Yuan in our bodies and stabilize the violent Yin Qi."

Seeing that Fang Shengsheng was a little unconvinced, he was worried that she would accept it in person, but after turning around, he turned around and pretended not to obey out of caution.

Xiang Yi immediately boasted about it... Of course, it wasn't really boasting, the things in the brocade box really had such effects. She specifically mentioned Lu Man's name to gain the other party's trust.

"Eh?"

"Why am I so angry for no reason?"

Xia Li pretended to discover a blind spot and suddenly asked a question.

She had a suspicious look on her face, and her eyes, nose and mouth seemed to be saying, 'You wouldn't lie to me on purpose, are you planning something?'

See this.

Xiang Yi became anxious and wanted to explain it clearly immediately.

"You have already absorbed too much Yin energy, and you are only at the seventh level, so it would be strange if you didn't riot... cough cough cough!"

After speaking a long paragraph like a machine gun, Xiang Yi suddenly realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said.

He quickly covered it up with a cough.

——Fang Shengsheng probably didn’t understand.

——She just got promoted, so she must not know the taboos. And she doesn't look very smart...

"That's it."

Xia Li nodded with an expression that showed he understood, but actually didn't quite understand.

Xiang Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

Then, Xia Li slowly opened the brocade box in his hand, and a thumb-sized square stone lay quietly inside. One end of the square stone was pierced with a wire, and it could be seen that it was made into a pendant.

"Yangshi?"

The girl was slightly surprised.

At this moment in the dark night, the square stone in the brocade box shone with a soft light, which was even brighter than the lanterns not far away... and it exuded a refreshing warmth.

It was as if a warm fireplace was lit in the drafty house in the cold winter.

The winter wind is cold and chilly.

That's why it's so warm...

"Yes, it is the Yang Stone."

"I didn't expect you to recognize it at first sight. It has been specially treated. Although it may be a little uncomfortable to wear, it will not cause any harm to us."

Xiang Yi looked at the girl in front of him with some surprise.

In fact, she had already guessed this, so she wasn't too surprised.

Soon after meeting Fang Shengsheng, she discovered from her walking, sitting and lying postures that she was definitely not an ordinary person. She was probably a daughter of a wealthy family... After all, she had seen many big scenes and attended many banquets for the rich and powerful. She was often invited to dance or sing for them.

and so.

She was surprised at another point...

Fang Shengsheng is a newly promoted ghost and must have died ten years ago.

And he looks so young, no more than fourteen or fifteen or sixteen years old. If he was born in Renwang County, he would never have the chance to develop such a temperament.

Ever since the fall of Niou Castle, all newly born humans in this area have been enslaved by ghosts. Where can we find a truly big family or a noble lady from a big family?

unless.

Fang Shengsheng was born in those two places, but unfortunately became exiled here for various reasons.

After realizing this, Xiang Yi couldn't help but look at Xia Li with some pity... Dying in a foreign land at such a young age reminded her of herself a hundred years ago.

That night, the wind was howling wildly and shouts of killing were heard from all directions.

There was a gentle spring breeze and drizzle in the building just a moment ago, full of tenderness and love.

The next moment everything was ruined...

Xiang Yi committed suicide by jumping off a building. He was born in Dingbei City and died here.

Dingbei City is the closest to Niou City, and they did not escape after the fall of Niou City... It was very chaotic at that time, and a young man who was usually very gentle and graceful offered to take Xiang Yi away, and she agreed.

She was just an ordinary person at that time, and facing such a crisis she could only choose to believe.

It’s a pity that you can only know a person’s face but not his heart.

Although she is a weak woman, she will not let the beast succeed!

"It's been a long time in the blink of an eye...?"

Because he guessed Fang Shengsheng's family background, he also deduced that she must have died here. He felt sorry for her and couldn't help thinking of his own life.

I felt a little sad for a moment.

To be honest, she was a little strange today.

She hadn't thought about her past life for a long time, and even if she did, she wouldn't have any emotion. Since she became a ghost, she instinctively hated the living and looked down on everything in her past life.

——This Fang Shengsheng is really poisonous!

Although she is of average appearance, I always think she is pretty, and even secretly think that I am far inferior to her.

Although I have no feelings about the things that happened in my life, I still feel a little sad because of her...

——No, no, I have to stay away from her.

I warned Xiang Yi in my heart.

But her eyes stayed on that graceful figure. She talked in her mind for a long time, but she didn't move her feet. It was not until Fang Shengsheng spoke that she came back to her senses.

"Hey! You have a fever. Why is your face so red for a ghost?"

"Also, don't look at me with that pitying look, I'm not a lesbian. Thank you!"

"You...what nonsense are you talking about, Fang Shengsheng?!"

After I came to my senses, I felt very ashamed in front of her.

Ashamed and annoyed.

Although she didn't understand what the last word meant, she didn't think it was a good thing. And the fact that she blushed made her feel even more embarrassed.

You know, she and Fang Shengsheng are love rivals!

How can I blush in front of my love rival?

"Anyway, remember to wear your stuff for three full days. I came here tonight just to do my job. It's too much to say a word to someone like you!"

"Humph!"

With a heavy snort, Xiang Yi was not hesitant.

Turn around and leave.

The back view is very cool and free.

It's a pity that the second before she turned around, her eyes were still fixed on Shengsheng's collarbone, her behavior and words were totally inconsistent, it was really ridiculous...

Chapter 29: It’s still comfortable to cheat~

"interesting......"

Looking at Xiang Yi's back getting farther and farther away, Xia Li's lips curled up slightly.

He kept talking about a love rival, but turned around to help her, and thought he had done it perfectly. How stupid.

After two seconds of attention, the girl's focus returned to the object in her palm.

——Yang stone.

Yang Stone is one of the most important tools for humans to fight against ghosts.

The large device mentioned before is something called the "Yangshi Giant Crossbow". Yangshi can cause absolute damage to ghosts... For example, the small piece in Xia Li's palm at this moment, if it is the original Yangshi that has not been specially treated, it can destroy the entire arm of a ghost below the Yin general level.

Just like snow melting quickly under the bright sun.

So, the moment Xia Li got it, he felt secretly surprised.

The moment she touched the Yang Stone, she felt exactly the same as when she was still a human, as if her whole body was wrapped in warmth...

I told Xiang Yi about it at that time.

"Although it may be a little uncomfortable to wear, it will not cause any harm to us." These were the other party's exact words.

That is to say.

In Xiang Yi's opinion, this Yang stone is uncomfortable to wear, but because it has been processed, it will not cause any harm. On the contrary, it can help weak ghosts digest the excessive Yin energy in their bodies!

In fact, all second-grade cultivators are like this, so logically speaking, Xia Li should be like this as well.

But in fact, she felt very comfortable...

The warmth that the Yangshi brought her was like the sunshine in her memory.

——I am indeed a mutated ghost!

this moment.

Shengsheng was extremely sure of this. She had no hatred for the living and was not afraid of Yangshi. She was an outlier among the ghosts.

But I don't know why it is like this, what situation caused her to be like this.

Are there other ghosts with the same fate as me? After all, so many ghosts have been born in the past one hundred and thirty years. Even if the probability of mutation is very small, she shouldn't be the only one.

but......

If she is really unique, could it be due to the treasure pot in her body?

"what?"

"This thing is quite effective."

Xia Li had just ascended two levels, so her aura was actually a little chaotic. Just as her thoughts were swaying, she came to her senses and found that her aura was calm, as if her realm had stabilized.

Such an effect can be said to be a pleasant surprise.

She even looked at the stupid Xiang Yi with a higher opinion...

——It’s actually quite useful.
