Wicked documents
Chapter 145 – The Double-Edged Sword
contract?It's not that Lou Che has ignored this issue, but that he has too many affairs on hand recently, and he has not been able to take care of them for the time being.
After Weixi's reminder, Lou Che gave her a "asking" look, hoping she could explain in more detail.All the contracts signed by the monster and its master must be archived in the archives department, and no one knows these details better than Weixi.
Weixi didn't speak, maybe she didn't have time to speak, maybe it was because she wasn't ready to answer at all, in short, in this short gap, the topic was snatched away by Huo Lian who had been acting as the background all along——
"Lydia has a problem with her eyes."
Lou Che and Weixi were stunned at the same time, they couldn't keep up with the sudden change of topic.
However, this may be very abrupt to others, but it is something that Huo Lian has been thinking about for a long time. Ever since he discovered that Ludia's eyes had problems, he has never completely forgotten about it.
Regardless of whether it is a natural enemy or not, Huo Lian always has an indescribable sense of responsibility towards other monsters.Even if he and Ludia got tired of seeing each other, and when they met, they quarreled more than they talked, but regarding each other's eyes, Ludia's missing half of his vision, Huo Lian has always taken it seriously.Even though he has never made a single word of promise, he has already decided that it is his duty to do so.
By the way, Huo Lian felt similarly when facing Luo Ying.Strictly speaking, ever since Luo Ying participated in the "kidnapping" plan, no, it should be said earlier, when she deliberately approached him with a special purpose, she had already constituted a betrayal of Huo Lian.
No one likes a betrayer, but even though Huo Lian understood everything, he never showed any dislike for Luo Ying.
This firebird always showed a kind of impatience that he did not want to participate in the dispute between monsters and humans, as if he might leave at any time.But no matter how Huo Lian behaved and what impression he gave to others, he still didn't leave after all.From the snow to Paradise Island, he walked all the way with his fellow monsters.
In the eyes of most of the companions, this leader may be a bit idle, but those who are close to him, including Wei Xi and Lou Che, they all understand very well what Huo Lian has paid so far.
Huo Lian didn't need to deliberately mention things like sense of responsibility, because these things had already penetrated into his bones and blood.
This is true no matter how much he himself admits.
Lou Che actually didn't know much about the contract that Ludia carried. This Persian cat used to behave very low-key. He hid in a small shop with strange decoration all year round and stayed at home. The small town originally existed to cover the No. [-] auction site of the Demon Committee, and as Lou Che, he couldn't enter the small town with a big swagger.
Apart from being one of Zhuang Jin's contracted beasts, Ludia has nothing else worthy of attention. He has never been on any mission before, so it's no wonder that Lou Che neglected to investigate him.Although this vixen attaches great importance to the value of information, he has limited manpower and it is really difficult to cover everything.
However, what Huo Lian said today explained the problem to a large extent. Lou Che asked, "Ludia is missing half of her eyesight, and the missing part happens to be on Zhuang Jin's body?"
Huolian nodded.
Lou Che's expression immediately became extremely serious, and he glanced at Weixi with some dissatisfaction——
Judging from the age and seniority of both parties, of course it's not up to a junior like Lou Che to criticize her more, and Lou Che can also see that Weixi has paranoia beyond other people's understanding in certain matters. For such a companion, It is better to be able to avoid conflict or not to have conflict.
Therefore, when Lou Che treated this eldest lady, his attitude was mostly respectful, even somewhat respectful.
Only this time, Lou Che finally couldn't control his dissatisfaction.Although Weixi also reminded her, but she almost missed the important thing with such an unclear sentence.
"Miss Weixi, please tell me clearly, did Zhuang Jin use the 'contract' to exchange 'flesh and blood' with Ludia?" After all, it is the current family of the Lou family. When it is time, it brings the elements of order.
After looking at each other for a long time and being silent, Weixi nodded reluctantly.
Lou Che was once in a state of anger, which somewhat affected his judgment.On the contrary, it was the one who didn't understand what "using a contract to exchange flesh and blood", so he could only act as a bystander's fire, his ability to observe words and emotions suddenly soared, and he saw some clues to some extent——
At this moment, Weixi's complexion was ugly, and she was suddenly treated in a vicious manner, which must be one reason, but Huo Lian thought it was more than that, he could vaguely see some morbid fragility from her snow-white face.
I have to say that this is really quite a strange imagination. Weixi has been living in the Monster Paradise for the past few days. She has never been injured or sick, and her face is not so ugly.
Lou Che's focus had already shifted to the edited information, he flipped the pages by himself, and soon turned to the page with Ludia's name. It didn't seem like he was explaining to others, but more like He said to himself, "This is really troublesome. If it is really a contract made with flesh and blood, Ludia may not be suitable for this position."
He quickly scanned all the names on the form, hoping to find a replacement.Even though this army already has sisters Shangguan as deputies, that is already the limit of the twins' abilities.
It is really difficult to choose a replacement.
"What is the meaning of a contract made with flesh and blood? Is it any different from the blood-letter logo I saw on Miss Fourth?" Huo Lian had no choice but to ask at this moment because he was ignorant.For the time being, he couldn't disturb Lou Che who was concentrating on selecting candidates, so he could only throw the question to Wei Xi.
The latter was unavoidably surprised, his silver-white eyes were wide open, and he just stared at him blankly.
Huo Lian personally admitted that he was not Emperor Xiran.This approach is tantamount to lifting the trump card of his peaceful coexistence with Wei Xi. Now the two of them have almost nothing to say, at least Wei Xi unilaterally thinks this is the case, and she even dare not look at Huo Lian's card. Familiar and unfamiliar faces.
But Huo Lian's expression was so serious, the tense facial lines formed his unique and gorgeous outline, the golden color in his eyes fell silent, and the pupils of his eyes were like ice crystals sneaking in, clear and clean, without a trace of impurities.
Weixi understood very well that she couldn't refuse such a pair of eyes.
Whether it's that person or not may not really be that important at some point, at least in Wei Xi's view, these eyes have already overlapped with his memory and fit perfectly.
A long, long time ago, there seemed to be a scene of deja vu, yes, it was when Xi Ran gave her the affairs of the afterlife, and the Monster Beast Emperor's face was only pure seriousness, and there was nothing else.
Even though Xiran knew that he would die and that she would be heartbroken, he just regarded it as an ordinary entrustment.
If you have to find out something else, it can only be the trust that Bai Xinyue once said.
Trust, what a convenient and easy-to-use vocabulary, it is so simple to draw the ground as a prison. In order to live up to this trust, Weixi has no choice but to stick to it, and this persistence has lasted for thousands of years.Thousands of years without end.
Wei Xi admits that Xi Ran is gentle—that is full of cruelty...gentleness.
Weixi never knew how to describe her emotions, but one thing is certain, what she did was so ridiculous, even today, just because she faced a pair of similar eyes, she was filled with resentment. , still learn not to refuse.
Even though she has never had the problem of being a good teacher, she still couldn't help explaining patiently, "The blood mark uses the meridian of the monster to control it. Since you have seen the Fourth Miss, you should have seen what is under her skin." ,It's just like……"
Huo Lian interjected, "It's like a marionette."
Although his description was somewhat cruel, it was very appropriate, so Yi Weixi nodded.
"Because you have mastered the meridian of the monster beast, you can naturally control its every move. Of course, because the natural blood of the monster beast is strong, it is not very easy for the human master to do this. If it goes on for a long time, the meridian of the monster beast will also Gradually cannibalize their masters, linking their masters and slaves into an inseparable whole, one prospers and one loses all."
After a pause, Weixi added by the way, "That's why I suggested you to sign a blood-letter sign with Bai Xinyue at the beginning."
Under this premise, Bai Xinyue could not easily take Huo Lian's life, and even had to do his best to protect him, which would invisibly give Huo Lian a life guarantee.
Weixi's original intention was not to seek credit from Huo Lian, or to gain his gratitude, so it's fine to mention it.Before Huo Lian could recall it, Wei Xi continued, "But the contract with flesh and blood as the medium is quite different. This kind of contract is not very binding on the human master."
"Why?" Huo Lian was very puzzled, "Since blood was used, why is there such an obvious difference?"
"There are nine types of contracts in total, each of which requires more or less blood. You should know that the source of power for monsters is the blood flowing in their bodies. So when the high priest Haoyu was developing the contract Sometimes, she will naturally think of using this. By the way, because she often presides over the sacrifices of the whole family of monsters, the various methods of using blood are the things she is most familiar with.
"However, since the methods of using blood are different, the effects achieved are also different. To put it simply, the blood mark needs the blood of the master and slave to meet; but if only the blood is used as the medium of the contract, it only needs to be unilaterally endowed by the monster. blood, and..."
"A part of the body." Huo Lian interjected again, his keen reaction today is truly astonishing, although these conclusions are all guesses, they are surprisingly accurate. "Laudia's vision was transferred to Zhuang Jin just like that."
Registering the contracts signed between monsters and humans in the archives department all the year round, Wei Xi thought she had become insensitive, but now that Huo Lian pointed out something sharply, she suddenly felt like a needle had been pricked in her heart.Huo Lian probably didn't mean to accuse her, but Wei Xi still felt that she was a shameless accomplice.
Huo Lian is still focused on Ludia's affairs, his earnestness is somewhat pretentious, but at this juncture, he obviously has no time to care about Wei Xi's emotions, pretending to be stupid is probably a very cowardly escape, but it is also the most appropriate way to deal with it Way.
With a serious attitude, Huo Lian said, "I still don't understand one thing. Since the contract used by Zhuang Jin is so convenient and the payment is so small, why don't others follow suit? Also adopt this unilaterally beneficial contract. Way? Let’s just talk about that Wei Yunfei, he doesn’t look like a fool, why is he making things difficult for himself and binding his life with monsters?”
"A contract is a double-edged sword. To what extent the owner wants to control his monsters, he must pay a corresponding price. Huo Lian, I say this, maybe you understand?"
Weixi's explanation made Huo Lian even more puzzled. He didn't understand the situation of other monsters, but he really couldn't agree with Ludia's actions. Since Zhuang Jin didn't have a strong restraint on him, he should have countless monsters in the past. Qing's chance can be gone, but when they met for the first time, Ludia could only guard such a small shop, what is the difference between going to jail?
Weixi sighed for a long time, and had no choice but to go into more detail, "To maintain this special contract, to put it bluntly, the monster must be determined. Because every once in a while, the monster needs to offer something. A certain amount of blood is shed."
For some reason, Huo Lian suddenly recalled a scene - the last time they acted in the Monster Paradise, for some reason, Bai Xinyue forcibly fed him a mouthful of blood in the form of a kiss. Mouth blood also played a crucial role.
Huo Lian couldn't determine what Bai Xinyue's blood represented at that time?It's a pity that he couldn't think about it, the occasion was wrong, and the time didn't allow it.
As for the pros and cons of various contracts, Weixi certainly didn't need to explain to the fox, but Lou Che expected to listen to the conversation just now, it could be regarded as Weixi's hint in disguise.She suddenly turned her gaze, and cast a teasing glance at Lou Che, "Now you should understand my original intention."
Lou Che's face at this time was really not pretty, "I was careless, I didn't expect Ludia's situation to be so complicated. Now he has become an eyeliner of the Demon Committee, no matter what he wants, because he can Zhuang Jin can also see what he sees."
After Weixi's reminder, Lou Che gave her a "asking" look, hoping she could explain in more detail.All the contracts signed by the monster and its master must be archived in the archives department, and no one knows these details better than Weixi.
Weixi didn't speak, maybe she didn't have time to speak, maybe it was because she wasn't ready to answer at all, in short, in this short gap, the topic was snatched away by Huo Lian who had been acting as the background all along——
