I swapped my life with me

Hall turned sideways: "You go first."

Carson frowned and looked at him for a few seconds, but he couldn't refuse directly, so he turned around and grabbed Mu Xuesong's arm again, and walked towards the end of the corridor first.

Without saying a word, Mu Xuesong walked past the three cloaked men with his legs wide open. After he had gone a few steps, he could still feel the eyes behind him cast on his back, with a faint sense of scrutiny and concern. Look at the taste.

For some unknown reason, the curse that Carson added to him before didn't seem to take effect. Mu Xuesong put his fingers under the robe, clenched and opened it from time to time, feeling that his control over his body was gradually returning.

The group walked silently in the corridor until they reached the end of the passage. Two male mages holding weapons stopped them coldly and began to check their identities.

Mu Xuesong peeked at the semi-circular arch behind the two guards, and found that the door was pitch black. No matter how much he observed, he still couldn't see what secrets were hidden in the darkness.

This strange scene undoubtedly gave him the illusion that as long as he walked in, he would be completely swallowed by the darkness.

After the identity was confirmed, one of the guards asked, "What floor?"

Carson replied, "Six floors."

Hall followed suit and said slowly, "I'm the same as him."

The guard didn't speak any more, just stretched out his hand, flipped the mechanism embedded in the wall beside him a few times, and said, "Okay, let's go in."

Mu Xuesong was dragged by Carson into the archway. His vision went dark, then lit up again. After he stood still, he realized that he had entered a quaint spiral stairwell.

This is a bit like the spiral stairs in ancient western castle towers. On Mu Xuesong's left hand side is a curved wall, on his right hand side is next to Carson, and to the right is a huge central column supporting the entire building.

There were also no windows in the stairwell descending down the spiral. If it weren't for the black candles hanging every two meters for lighting, Mu Xuesong might not even be able to see where the road under his feet was.

There was the rustling sound of robes scraping the ground behind him, and the young man didn't need to turn his head, he already guessed that it was Hall and two other unlucky "fat sheep" who also followed in.

At this point, Carson finally breathed a sigh of relief. He no longer dragged Mu Xuesong, but only asked him to follow his footsteps. The two walked down the stairs side by side.

There was no one else in the not-so-spacious spiral staircase, and it was very quiet up and down, only the dull footsteps of five men echoed in my ears.

Not long after, Hall seemed unable to bear the loneliness, and took the initiative to chat with Carson with a smile: "Carson, were you guarding against me just now?"

He didn't seem to be very worried that the two "fat sheep" he had kidnapped would run away, and he only let them follow behind, while he kept pushing himself between Carson and Mu Xuesong.

Unlike Hall, Carson didn't have a good face after seeing him. Hearing this, he hummed and said, "You think too much, I just don't know you very well."

Hall seemed a little disappointed: "I thought we were already familiar."

Carson squinted at him: "If I remember correctly, you have been with the boss for less than two months, and the number of times we have chatted can probably be counted on one hand."

Hall leaned forward again: "Oh, why don't we get closer now?"

Mu Xuesong walked down the stairs against the wall expressionlessly, and began to consciously slow down his pace when the two people beside him were not paying attention.

Carson, who had attracted most of Hall's attention, frowned and gave way in the other direction: "Are you kidding? You cut off a deal from my brother last week. We are originally competitors. I can still talk to you well now, which shows that I have been very restrained."

Hall sighed: "Carson, I'm really heartbroken when you say that. I obviously like you very much."

Carson: "..."

Carson was so disgusted that he had goosebumps all over his body. He rubbed his arms vigorously and said in disgust, "Honestly, Hall, what do you want?"

Hall touched his chin with one hand, and said meaningfully: "I..."

"It's nothing, I just want to borrow you."

Carson thought he had misheard: "...what?"

Standing at the back beside the two, Mu Xuesong raised his eyes slightly, just in time to see the two "Fat Sheep" gentlemen who were walking at the rear and followed quietly all the time suddenly moved.

It was also at this time that the strange sense of disobedience in Mu Xuesong's heart suddenly disappeared.

No wonder he always felt that something was wrong. Hall had been separating him from Carson from the very beginning, while the footsteps of the two mages behind were steady and powerful. It didn't look like their minds were being controlled and their bodies were forced to move forward. Sluggish look.

Mu Xuesong watched the two of them approaching quietly, subduing Carson instantly from left to right, and Hall who was standing beside him also stepped forward at the right time, holding a silver card he was very familiar with, and directly confronting Carson. .

The young man whistled in his heart, offering silent praise for the tacit cooperation of the three.

"weak!"

Carson's limbs felt weak all of a sudden, and he couldn't stop falling down.

He opened his mouth to speak, but the next moment, the fat mage's head was firmly controlled from behind. When Hall stretched out his arm, the cursed card almost completely blocked the former's sight.

Hall said quickly, "Stop thinking!"

"From now on, obey me, obey!"

Carson paused for a moment, then began to twist his body, resisting more fiercely.

Seeing this, a short mage behind him couldn't help but softly said: "What's the matter, the spell is useless?"

Hall shook his head and continued, "Carson, obey me."

At the same time, he gestured to another companion, who didn't say anything, but raised his right hand and gave Carson a gentle blow to the back of his head.

Carson's eyes rolled violently a few times. After a while, he lowered his head slightly, no longer struggling, and his expression gradually became blank.

Hall was refreshed, and took back the card with his backhand: "Hey, it's done."

The tall mage behind Carson was very cautious. He didn't let go of the restraint, but said: "Hall, you ask him a question first. Occam, you go to see the other one, remember to be careful."

The short mage nodded: "That should be a victim, but I will be careful, Joyce."

Mu Xuesong was still watching the show, but upon hearing this, he immediately shrunk his body to the wall and stood up, then drooped his eyelids again, and turned the corners of his mouth back to the original angle, as if all the small movements just now had never happened.

Occam didn't notice it at all.

He turned around and walked up two steps, walked to the young man in a few steps, first shook his hand in front of the hood twice, and found that the other party did not respond, then carefully tore off Mu Xuesong's hat.

Under the candlelight of a black candle, the short black hair of the young man seemed to have been stained with ink, his dark green eyes were bright and bright, his nose was straight, his lips were thin and sexy, and there seemed to be a small mole on the corner of his lips , overall, is an extremely handsome appearance.

Occam was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

Joyce: "Occam?"

Occam regained consciousness in an instant, he took a step back, and said awkwardly: "Uh, it's nothing, this person was distracted by the curse on the card."

Hall muttered in a low voice: "It's strange, this guy Carson, why did he bring a 'fat sheep' to meet the leader himself?"

Joyce: "You should ask him this question directly."

The tall mage was still holding the back of Carson's head with one hand.As Joyce said, he shook his arms, and Carson also swayed from side to side like a piece of bacon being hung up.

Hall couldn't help but gritted his teeth. He flipped the card in his hand and moved to Carson's side: "Carson, I'll ask you the answer, do you hear me?"

Carson said in a daze, "...I heard it."

Hall pointed at Mu Xuesong: "Why did you bring him to see the boss?"

Carson moved his eyes slowly following the hand, and murmured, "He is...the one who is the boss...Mr. Morrison said that he will be caught alive..."

"...he is Night Sparrow... I heard... Yes, you can exchange a lot of money..."

Hall hissed lightly, with a little more fear in his eyes: "Morrison? You mean the great magister who looks like bark? The one who studies black magic?"

Carson wanted to nod, but his head was still being grabbed, so he could only open his mouth: "That's right, it's him..."

"So, Morrison asked you to catch the night sparrow alive? Tsk, night sparrow, it sounds a little bit familiar..." Hall recalled for a long time, but found nothing, so he turned to look at the two companions: "Do you have any?" Have you heard of such a number one character?"

Occam shook his head: "I'm just a trainee priest from a small town, and I haven't heard much about the name of a mage."

Joyce was silent for a few seconds, and said in a low voice, "I've heard of it."

The hearts of the other two people, including Mu Xuesong who was still pretending to be dead, all jumped, and Occam immediately said, "Joyce, do you know him?"

Unexpectedly, Joyce shook his head: "No, I just heard his name mentioned by chance when I was traveling in a few downtown areas."

In the mouths of those intelligence dealers who hang out in taverns and other trading places, Night Sparrow is a very special and slightly evil mysterious mage.

No one can say exactly what he looks like, how old he is, and what kind of magic he is best at.What's more, he is actually not well-known in the circle of ordinary magicians, because he is low-key enough and likes to be alone, this guy can easily disappear from the crowd, and his sense of existence is terribly low.

But in another, or even several other special circles, the night sparrow's name is extremely resounding.

The reason why Joyce had heard about him was entirely because he had bought an information before, which mentioned this low-key and mysterious strange mage.

Similarly, the intelligence also mentioned the great magister Morrison.

——That's right, the information that Joyce bought at that time was exactly a series of news about the whereabouts of "Adrien's Travel Notes".
