I just want to be a quiet man
Page 594
Hearing this, Pei Ling nodded in satisfaction. It would be best if he could really find out about the situation of the Faceless Immortal right now.
It doesn't matter if you can't hear it.
As long as you can get the other party's mask like the maid who served him just now, that's fine!
Thinking of this, Pei Ling directly asked the same question as before: "Then... do you know about the sacrifice?"
Hearing the word "sacrifice", the servant girl froze. After a while, she turned her head stiffly and looked at Pei Ling.
The servant girl's voice was suddenly cold: "The servant girl... is the sacrifice!"
"The servant girl should go find Miss Xiang'e!"
Her words were filled with majestic hatred, her aura soared wildly, she got up without the slightest hesitation, and walked out of the house.
Seeing that the maid did not take out the dagger to stab herself, Pei Ling was startled.
If the opponent doesn't make a move, how can he use the [Desiccated Heart Technique]?
And how to get the mask on the opponent's face?
Yes, he intends to repeat the operation of obtaining the mask of the No.1 servant girl directly. First, let the other party remember the memory of the sacrifice, and then use the [Desiccated Heart Technique] to muddle through, so that he can get the other party's mask smoothly...
If this fails, just grab it!
It's just that, looking at the aura rising from the other party's whole body, a monk in the Qi training period can no longer resist, Pei Ling wisely kept silent and let him go away.
"Step, step, step..." The sound of hurried footsteps quickly disappeared, and Pei Ling was the only one left in the bedroom.
He frowned, this maid was indeed a sacrificial offering!
Moreover, it should be sacrificed by Xiao Xiang'e himself.
Right now, the opponent is reminded by the word "sacrifice", and his strength has increased dramatically. If he wants to get his mask again, I'm afraid it will be difficult, so it's better to change his target...
His thoughts turned, and after a while, Pei Ling walked out of the bedroom again.
※※※
The sound of a cock crowing from nowhere, accompanied by the twilight of the sky, awakened the entire Xiao Mansion.
The long night was over, and in the early morning, Pei Ling, who was wearing night dew, returned to her room.
At the end of the night, he had gone around the entire Xiao Mansion, and found that all the maids were wearing masks at night.It's just that he tested a few times and found that each maid has a different object of hatred, and it is difficult to obtain their masks through the same method.
In addition, none of the guards during the day stayed in the house at night.
While pondering in his heart, he turned the screen, walked into the room, and sat down at the table. The warmth in the room and the coldness on the mask met each other, emitting thin white steam.
The cold feeling penetrated into Pei Ling's body like a gangrene, and he couldn't help lowering his head and coughing violently.
Dragging his sick body around all night, his condition seemed to be getting worse.
Pei Ling frowned, and immediately reached out to take off the mask.
His aura instantly reduced to that of a mortal, but his state recovered, and his condition improved significantly.
But the next moment, he was in a trance, and saw himself holding a bunch of freshly folded flower branches, hurried across the corridor, and walked towards the backyard, talking to the people behind him, "Mom seems to have just gotten up at this time, I will send flowers and branches, and I just let her put it in a vase...to make her happy, and the dark cloud and snow covered horse I fancy will be settled."
Chapter 73: Day, Night.
There seemed to be servants behind him, who followed closely behind him, hearing the words and said respectfully: "Young master is smart!"
...Pei Ling suddenly came back to his senses, but saw the heavy palace lanterns, and the various ornaments on the Baibaoge, radiant and lifeless.
His face suddenly became extremely solemn, and he awakened a memory of "Master Zheng" again!
At night, the mask can help him recover his strength; but during the day, it will aggravate the curse!
However, without wearing a mask, Xiao Zheng's memory will gradually recover over time.The other party's fate will gradually awaken and gradually replace her!
He originally thought that in this house, it was safe during the day and dangerous at night, but now it seems that the actual situation is just the opposite!
Day is a dead end, and night is their chance!
Just as he was thinking, there was a slight knock on the door outside the house.
A clear and submissive voice came: "Master, the servant girl is here to bring you breakfast."
Hearing this, Pei Ling immediately came to his senses, looked at the screen suspiciously, thought for a while, and quickly said, "Come in!"
"Squeak."
The half-hidden door was pushed open, and a maid wearing a green cloth skirt turned around the screen with a food box and walked into the room.
This servant girl didn't wear a mask, she wore a green shirt and a green skirt, with some vine-like patterns embroidered on the cuffs, and she was combing her hair in a bun, with a strand of hair hanging down, tied with a red headband, and fell on her left shoulder.She looks about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a round face and round eyes, fair complexion, and delicate in her beauty.Looking carefully, there was an inconspicuous small scar on his forehead, as if he had bumped into it somewhere before, leaving a pea-sized depression.
After turning around the screen, she walked quickly to the table, and after slightly bending her knees, she put the food box on the table, lifted the lid, and said, "The servant girl serves the young master for dinner."
Pei Ling carefully observed the new maid, her face was unfamiliar, completely different from the maid who served her yesterday.It's just that I don't know if the servant girl in front of me is a living person, or a sacrifice that has also been sacrificed?
However, the other party is not wearing a mask now, let's wait until the evening...
Thinking of this, Pei Ling said the same as yesterday: "You step back first, I don't need to serve. After an hour, I will clean up."
When the servant girl heard the words, she immediately bowed and said, "Yes!"
Seeing that Pei Ling had no other orders, she turned around and left.
After watching the maid go out and hearing her footsteps going away, Pei Ling picked up the food and started eating.
Soon, he swept away the food in front of him, and the warm porridge entered his stomach, and his whole body suddenly became more alive.
Pei Ling felt that her condition had improved significantly, and her original condition had also eased.
However, he didn't take it lightly. After putting down his chopsticks, he continued to sit at the table and wait.
Whenever there is any discomfort in his body, he will immediately use the system hosting.
Time passed slowly, and after an hour, nothing happened.
"Boom bang bang."
At this moment, the door was knocked again, and the servant girl's voice came from just now: "Master, can the maidservant go in and clean up?"
Pei Ling nodded slightly, and said, "Come in."
"Squeak."
The door of the room was pushed open, and the maidservant in the green skirt walked in, cleaned the dishes and chopsticks very neatly, wiped the table, and left with the food box on her arm.
Watching her back disappear behind the screen, Pei Ling suddenly felt a surge of intense drowsiness.
Losing his cultivation base, his physique dropped sharply, and now he has worked hard all night, even if he just ate, he doesn't have the energy to do other things.
"Go to sleep first..."
Thinking of this, Pei Ling took off his coat, then walked to the bed and lay down.
At this time, his drowsiness was almost submerged like a tide pounding, Pei Ling pulled the quilt on himself reluctantly, and immediately fell into a deep sleep.
The palace lantern burns quietly, and the shadows in the house squirm slowly with the slight shaking of the lights. The brilliance of pearls and jade refracts thousands, bright and cold. In the dark room, it seems that some disaster and calamity are brewing...
※※※
In the deserted courtyard, the originally verdant flowers and trees withered.
The pink bride was covered in bruises, her skirt was torn and blood-stained everywhere, and she looked in a panic.
She stood under a flower tree that was almost cut into a stick, her face was splattered with blood, the corners of her clothes and cuffs exuded a strong smell of blood, her face was livid.
Suddenly, the pink bride bent down and let out a fierce cough.
She was seriously injured this time!
The servant girl who was chasing and killing her suddenly became much stronger for some reason. Even if she used all kinds of tricks, if it wasn't for the crowing of the cock just now that made the servant girl retreat suddenly, she would have been slaughtered by the other party!
"It seems that as long as the sky is bright, it is safe."
"Be careful at night in the future, and do important things during the day!"
"Prepare the sacrifice first!"
Thinking of this, the pink bride took a short rest, and after recovering some strength, she got up directly and walked towards the embroidery building where she lived.
Soon, she returned to a small courtyard surrounded by flowers and trees. In the courtyard stood an embroidery building with carved beams and painted buildings.
The pink bride walked into the building, and just sat down at the table when there was a knock on the door behind her.
The servant girl's voice came from outside the door: "Miss, the servant girl brought breakfast."
The pink bride's complexion turned cold, and she immediately said, "Come in!"
"Squeak."
The door was pushed open, and a maid in an indigo skirt came in with a food box on her arm.
She combed a pair of flat buns, and on one side of her hair was a newly picked pink chrysanthemum. The dewdrops on the petals were not dry, and there was a slight chill in the bitter breath.
This servant girl has arched eyebrows and big eyes, her appearance is delicate, her eyebrows are straight and her bangs are scattered on her forehead, and there is a habitual obedience between her brows, she is the maid who chased after the pink bride last night.
It's just that the other party doesn't seem to remember what happened last night at all. After entering, he immediately bowed his knees and said respectfully, "Miss!"
The pink bride looked at her quietly and kept silent.
Seeing that the lady's expression was a bit wrong, the girl was puzzled, and asked a little nervously: "Miss, what's the matter?"
The pink bride ordered lightly: "Take out all the food."
The servant girl quickly said, "Yes!"
As she spoke, she put the food box on the table, opened the lid, and took out a plate of wishful rolls, followed by a cup of almond tofu, followed by various pickles, fermented bean curd, water chestnut cake, stir-fried cabbage...
Just as the maid lowered her head and was fiddling with the dishes, poof!
With a muffled sound, a dagger suddenly pierced through the back of his heart.
The servant girl looked shocked, but before she could react further, her throat felt cold again...
puff puff puff...
The bright sharp blade flew in and out, blood splashed everywhere, the servant girl had already become a bloody person, her originally warm body cooled down rapidly, and soon she fell to the ground powerlessly.
Chapter 74: Blood Feed.
After confirming that there were no signs of life, the pink bride raised her hand without hesitation, and instantly summoned a dark green flame.
The flame fell on the body, and in a blink of an eye, it burned the maid's body to ashes.
Immediately afterwards, the pink bride pointed out that a gust of wind was born on the ground, rolled up the ashes in front of her eyes, and rushed out. In an instant, they scattered into the void, mixed with dust and dust, without any traces.
Looking at the empty ground, the pink bride nodded in satisfaction.
You can't kill the opponent at night, but you can during the day!
After dealing with the maid, she didn't even look at the food on the table. Now that she has cultivated herself, she no longer needs to rely on the food of these mortals to maintain her life.
Pick up the bead curtain and walk into the inner room.
The pink bride took off her tattered, blood-stained skirt, and then opened the cabinet to search for it. Among the colorful dresses, there was a red dress with golden patterns on the ground. The original wedding dress was very similar, so I reached out to take it without any hesitation.
At this moment, a strange memory came to mind.
The courtyard was full of sunshine in spring, and I stood by the window, and together with the maid, slowly unrolled a roll of cloth as bright as blood and as shiny as jade.
Beside him stood a servant woman with a blurred face, chattering endlessly: "...This was brought back by a caravan from far away. I heard that it was a tribute. The owner of the royal workshop took the benefits and took it out secretly. At this point, we bought everything back for us, and I want the servant girl to say that our lady is the most suitable for Dahong..."
"To make a shirt with short skirts and wide sleeves, and a skirt with pleats, just this gorgeous color, like blood drops, no upper body is needed, just making gestures like this, can make people look red, you have to embroider the phoenix peony with gold and silver thread Only then can I hold back..."
... The voice suddenly disappeared, and the pink bride suddenly came back to her senses, only to find that she had already changed into a clean dress.
However, the dress she changed into was not the red dress she had chosen, but a light purple narrow-sleeved short jacket, a goose-yellow fairy skirt, and an ai-green brocade tied around her waist.
The pink bride frowned slightly, but immediately felt that this dress seemed to be pretty good too?
She raised her head and looked at the bronze mirror not far away. She had loose long hair, a plain white face, and the purple and yellow skirt looked refreshing and neat. Compared with the big red skirt, it was a different kind of style.
After hesitating for a moment, the pink bride shook her head slightly. Now there is still business to do, but it is not the time to care about these things.
"Go find a suitable sacrifice first..."
"Then there is that Xiao Zheng, he helped that maid last night..."
"Go and meet him during the day!"
