Xiaoman stared at the green snake with his head down, and slowly told the truth.
"Thank you, Master Immortal, for letting my sister be free. I know that we have made an irreparable mistake, and I really don't want to make another mistake."
Mu Xi nodded, and Xiao Man continued to talk.
"The fairy master also saw that my sister and I are half-demons. My mother is a snake demon who has cultivated for a hundred years, and my father is a human being. Our sisters and I were born shortly after our parents passed away. We have half-demon blood in our bodies. There is demon law, but we have not practiced it, so... there is no way to control whether it will appear or not. As long as..."
Hearing her hesitation, Zhou Nan continued: "As long as you have the intention to kill, you will automatically reveal yourself."
"Yes..." Xiaoman's expression became excited, "But, we didn't intend to do harm to anyone... We never showed ourselves! After our parents died, we were adopted by relatives. Later, when our relatives fell into ruin, we were sold here. The Moon Red Building is over."
Xu Shi realized that she was too emotional, she stopped, and kept stroking the green snake with her right hand, and she was quite calm when she spoke again.
"Since ancient times, women in brothels have been as thin as paper and as cheap as grass. But fortunately, we sisters are dependent on each other and have never been separated. This is already a blessing for us. We work hard to save money and want to redeem ourselves as soon as possible. , and left this place to live a normal life. But last year, my sister met a man, and everything changed."
Mu Xi's expression changed slightly: "Who?"
"That man is very strange. He wears a cloak every time he comes. Few people can see his face clearly. He is very mysterious. But my sister fell in love with him. At that time, he often came to see my sister. I didn't even glance at it. At first, I thought they hit it off, that my sister finally had a good home... Who knows, that man discovered our identities, knew that we were half-demons, and asked us to do things for him. "
Hearing this, both Zhou Nan and Mu Xi glanced at each other in unison, feeling uneasy.
Zhou Nan asked, "What did he ask you to do?"
"He said, if monks come to us, let us kill them, take out their souls, and wait for him to come back to get them."
Zhou Nan thought for a while, then asked again: "You said, he asked you to kill monks? Then why did Yang Liu kill people?"
"Because I don't dare... My sister actually didn't dare, but she was deceived by his sweet words and didn't listen to my advice at all. The man promised that as long as he did this for him, he would come to redeem my sister in three months and marry her." Go home and be the main house..."
When Xiaoman said this, Green Snake suddenly raised his head, and there was a flash of light in his eyes.
"Afterwards, my sister seemed to be a different person, and she could do anything for him. It's strange to say that the customers of Yuehonglou have always been mostly local merchants, but after that, there were really many people from other places. Cultivators come here and look for us as soon as they come. My sister will kill them all according to what that person said..."
Xiaoman's voice weakened, as if he didn't dare to speak any more.
Seeing her trembling fingertips, Zhou Nan knew she was hesitating, so he helped her follow along: "But that man never appeared again, right?"
"Yes. A year has passed, and that person never came again. My sister is getting more and more anxious, getting out of control more and more... Not only monks, sometimes even ordinary guests are killed..."
Zhou Nan looked at the green snake in Xiaoman's arms, and asked again: "But why do you want to make it look like they died in bed?"
"Because only in this way can we rely on the guests... The government came to investigate and said that these people died because of indulgence..."
Although the whole situation was simple and rough, Zhou Nan couldn't figure it out. Who was so cruel to take the monk's life?It is not like simple revenge to lock the soul.
While listening to the story, Mu Xi kept pinching the base of his nose in thought, and asked Xiaoman after a long time: "Do you know the origin of that person? For example, which immortal monk is it?"
"Don't know... the accent is not native. But he used to say his name."
"What's his name."
"Zhou Feiyang."
Zhou Feiyang? !
Hearing his name, Zhou Nan almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
Can all of this impersonate him?
But Mu Xi seemed more nervous than him, and asked, "Are you sure that person is Zhou Feiyang?"
Zhou Nan thought to himself: How can she be sure, who in this world has seen Zhou Feiyang?
Xiaoman hesitated for a moment: "He said so himself, but because he is not a local, his face is very awkward. But...it seems that I have heard this name often in Chang'an City recently. My sister and I have both looked for it, but this person is just It was as if the world had evaporated, and no one saw him again."
"How could it be possible to find..."
Zhou Nan just muttered to himself, but Mu Xi still heard him: "What did you say?"
"I mean, that person won't come back." Zhou Nan turned to Xiaoman and kindly reminded her, "Don't wait, he just wants to use your hands to kill people."
Xiaoman lowered his eyes and sighed: "Actually, I don't know, that person is a liar. But my sister is willing, I can't leave my sister alone... I'm sorry..."
"Miss Xiaoman, there is still one thing I don't know." Zhou Nan looked at the group of souls by the stream, and remembered what Yang Liu said just now.
"Sir, please speak."
"What's the matter with this Qushui Liushang? If you just want to kill someone, you don't have to spend so much trouble."
Hearing Zhou Nan's question, Xiaoman visibly froze, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "This...this is..."
"You put a curse on so many resentful souls, and even designed such a big show, is it also instigated by that person?"
"This Qushui Liushang was made by me and has nothing to do with my sister."
Xiaoman bit his lip and continued to talk.
"That man never came back, and my sister became depressed day by day. She hated the betrayer more and more, and transferred this resentment to other men."
Zhou Nan could hear the difference in her tone, but he didn't expose it directly, and motioned her to continue.
"One day I found out that my sister would be calmer and less out of control when she saw the heartbreaker being punished. So I put a punishment spell into the wine, and as long as the heartbreaker touched the wine glass, it would be exposed. .”
Xiaoman said every word with certainty: "From now on, every time they drink the mind-restraining wine, they will be in great pain. I know it's cruel, but if I don't do this, my sister's resentment will only get worse and worse. kill more people..."
Zhou Nan looked at her suspiciously, and then asked: "So they became ghosts, and you keep giving them spirit-punishing wine?"
Xiao Man avoided his gaze and nodded slightly.
"impossible."
He chuckled lightly, and took a few steps closer to Xiaoman.
"How is it impossible?" Xiaoman's eyes dodged and his tone was straight.
"Do you know who Immortal Master Mu is? He didn't touch you because he had already seen that your demon power was low, or that you had no demon power at all, and it was impossible to create such a realistic illusion."
Xiaoman bit his lip tightly, his face turned pale, unable to refute.
But Zhou Nan still gave her enough time, and he continued after a while: "This illusion, and everything in the illusion, was done by Yang Liu alone. You just want to excuse Yang Liu by saying that. You know that she has committed a lot of crimes." , worrying that the demon town will punish her severely. Is that so?"
Xiaoman still didn't answer him, he lowered his head and hugged the green snake even tighter.
Zhou Nan looked at Mu Xi, then turned around and continued to ask, "Did your sister curse you too?"
"No! My sister didn't harm me! Don't talk nonsense!"
Seeing Xiaoman's reaction, Zhou Nan became more certain.
"Your sister didn't harm you, but you are cowardly by nature. You can only help her kill these people if you put a Gu Heart Curse on you. When you were playing in Mu Ya Ge just now, you haven't been cursed yet, so you don't have any demons on you." But when you returned to the pavilion for the second time, you were already controlled by your sister. Right?"
Seeing that he was exposed, Xiaoman dared not fight any further.
"Let me guess again. Just now, when Yang Liu and I were in the bamboo forest in the illusion, Master Mu Xian found you and solved your Gu Xin curse. You found out that he was a demon suppressing master, so you begged him not to hurt Yang Liu. Yes ?"
"..."
The green snake suddenly became restless.
After the demon is suppressed back to its original form, it cannot last for too long. It must be put into the demon-locking bag by the demon-suppressing master, and then brought back to the demon-locking tower.
Xiaoman hurriedly comforted the green snake, and then said to Mu Xi: "Master Immortal, I know that I have made a big mistake and I cannot escape the blame. I am willing to be taken into the Demon Locking Tower with my sister and punished."
She looked up at Mu Xi, her eyes were half pleading and half determined.
But Mu Xi was more determined: "No."
Xiao Man was impatient: "Why not? I'm also a half-demon, just like my sister! I can't be separated from my sister!"
When she got excited, her voice was high-pitched and thin, and Mu Xi frowned when she heard this:
"You are not under the supervision of the demon town chief. Although you are a half-demon, your spiritual power is low and cannot sustain your appearance."
Xiaoman burst into tears: "But, I also hurt people! I'm not a good person, maybe one day I'll show up..." She hugged the green snake even tighter as she spoke.
"Common people break the law, and they are governed by the laws of the court."
"Immortal Master, please, even if I'm imprisoned in the Demon Locking Tower and never recover, I won't complain..."
"Calm down, Miss Xiaoman first." Zhou Nan couldn't stand it any longer. Xiaoman seemed stubborn at first glance. Don't expect Mu Xi to show any kindness when he speaks. Ghost Eleven is different. Businessmen always Have some negotiating skills.
"It's not that Master Mu doesn't want to take you there, it's just that the Yumen Town Demon Lord doesn't just go there casually. The demon-suppressing spirit of the Demon Locking Tower only recognizes demons, and people can't get in. You are a human body, and you can't even chain the demon tower. How can we go together if we can’t even go through the door?”
"I……"
Zhou Nan continued: "Well, let me give you an idea. You don't have to go to the second hall. If you really want to be closer to your sister, you can go to Liangzhou City. You can look up from the west of Liangzhou City. See Yumen Suoyao Pagoda. There are many Buddhist temples over there, you can often pray for your sister, so that she can transcend reincarnation as soon as possible."
Xiao Man was silent for a moment: "Thank you, Young Master, for your guidance..."
Zhou Nan saw that she was in trouble, and said with a smile: "Of course, I'm just suggesting, it's up to you to decide whether to go or not. However, if you need our help, just ask."
As soon as the words fell, green smoke suddenly appeared around the green snake, and it was restless again, this time it broke free from Xiaoman.
When he was struggling, he flicked his tail with great strength, Xiaoman couldn't stand still, staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Zhou Nan picked her up and held her up.
"Thank you...thank you son..."
When she realized that her whole body had fallen into Zhou Nan's arms, a flush suddenly appeared on her cheeks, and she quickly pulled away.
Although she is in a brothel and can deal with all kinds of guests freely, but after all, the one in front of her is not a real guest, but an immortal master, so she is inevitably nervous.
But Zhou Nan could do it with little effort, he didn't pay attention, and he didn't notice Xiaoman's blush: "Be careful. Stand firm."
When he turned around, Mu Xi had already taken out the demon-locking pouch and put the green snake inside.
The demon-locking sac was automatically sealed, and a blue light lingered around it. After trembling a few times, it finally stabilized.
Seeing her sister being taken away, Xiaoman begged Mu Xi again.
"Master Immortal, I am willing to go to Liangzhou. It's just... I have an unfeeling request. I don't know if I can borrow some silver taels from the Immortal Master first. The money I have saved is not enough to redeem myself... When I arrive in Liangzhou, I will find you immediately." An errand, and I will definitely return it in the future!"
Mu Xi glanced at her and put away the demon lock bag.
"Just now he said he would help you, why didn't you ask him for money?"
Talk coldly, turn around and leave after speaking.
Xiao Man froze in place, with an embarrassed expression on his face, not knowing what he said wrong.
Zhou Nan looked at his back and blinked his eyes, why did he get angry again when he was fine?
"Thank you, Master Immortal, for letting my sister be free. I know that we have made an irreparable mistake, and I really don't want to make another mistake."
Mu Xi nodded, and Xiao Man continued to talk.
"The fairy master also saw that my sister and I are half-demons. My mother is a snake demon who has cultivated for a hundred years, and my father is a human being.
