Chapter 38 White Castle
The two took important information and walked downstairs.
"I didn't expect that you are still alive, and it seems that the rewards are good." Clark stood at the top of the stairs, staring at them with a smile on his arms. Come to save this step, obediently hand over the things to me, and I can let you live."
Jiang Xiaobai looked at him, and asked strangely: "Do you need me to call 120 for you?" This is not a very good brain, I need to see it.
Clark would be in a good mood now, ignoring his stubbornness, clapped his hands and said, "Bring me the two of them."
Jiang Xiaobai's heart shuddered.
The bad premonition became reality.Rudolph and Afra pressed Fang Yuan and Qi Ri and walked over.The most troublesome thing is that there is a lead wire hanging behind the two people, but on the other side of the lead wire are two black thunderballs.
"A weapon that is only available in mid-level organizations. It cost me a lot of points to exchange for it. I originally thought it would be used to threaten the boss, but now that I think about threatening you, it's not a bad thing." Clark said.
Pei Cong'an took out his pistol, Clark took a step back, held the remote control and said: "I advise you not to act rashly, once I get injured, your companions will die along with them. Of course, you can also ignore their lives, But the power of this thunder is said to be very powerful, I am afraid that you will be injured together, and it is not certain whether the boss will take advantage of the chaos and kill you all."
Jiang Xiaobai gently tugged Pei Cong'an with his hand, then his expression changed, and he said with restrained anger, "Clark, you violated the rules of the game."
"Rules? What rules? This is a dead man's game." Clark sneered, "Rules are dead, but people are alive. Now, should you hand over the spar?"
Jiang Xiaobai looked up at Pei Cong'an, asking for his consent.
Pei Cong'an was silent for a while, then nodded slowly.
Jiang Xiaobai could only take out the spar from his bosom, unwilling to walk in front of Clark and send the spar to him.
"I just said why can't I find the spar. It turns out that it's all on you. Pei Cong'an is really relieved." Clark stretched out his hand and was about to snatch the spar.
Jiang Xiaobai took a step back holding the object, and said vigilantly: "How do we know if you will tear up the ticket if you get the spar. No, I can't give you the object first, you have to let the person go."
"It's really troublesome." Clark cursed angrily, and then said, "Okay, go to the gate of the tower first, and then deliver the goods with one hand."
He didn't dare to trade the spar now, he would only rest assured when he got the door of the tower, otherwise who knows if Pei Cong'an would snatch the things back again.
Jiang Xiaobai nodded, followed behind the team with Pei Cong'an, and everyone walked towards the tower together.
Qi Ri and Fang Yuan hung their heads, frustrated and ashamed.They are not players, so there is no requirement to solve the secret of the instance.But it's still embarrassing.
When they first entered the game, they vowed to give Jiang Xiaobai a good look and let him know what a real mission leader is.Unexpectedly, a little help during the process did not help, but instead hindered the progress of the team.
The few people soon arrived outside the castle, and a group of people rushed towards the tower without encountering any obstacles on the way.The butler didn't know where he went.It seems to have disappeared since the morning.
When they passed the zoo that day, they just took a look at it from a distance, but now that they were under the tower, everyone could see it more clearly.The iron gate is actually not bare, there are some patterns drawn on it.The patterns are also various animals, and Jiang Xiaobai, who read the white paper, knows that this represents Skell's generals.When they land on land, they will take the form of animals.
"Give me something." Clark held out his hand.
Jiang Xiaobai signaled him to let Fang Yuan and the two go.
Clark narrowed his eyes in displeasure, and still motioned for Rudolph to untie the bombs on their bodies. He didn't move the ropes on the two of them, and let Rudolph and the others continue to press them down.
"You have also seen my sincerity, bring the things."
Jiang Xiaobai had five crystals in his hand, he took out four and sent them to Clark, but he didn't hand over the remaining one.
He and Pei Cong'an stood back a little and started to negotiate: "I'll throw you the last spar, but you have to let me go."
"Okay." Clark nodded.
Both sides started at the same time, Jiang Xiaobai threw out the last spar in his hand, while Rudolph pushed Fang Yuan and the others out.
However, Clark didn't really keep his promise. He snatched a bomb and threw it in Jiang Xiaobai's direction.
"Run!" Jiang Xiaobai urged loudly.
Fang Yuan and Qi Ri rolled on the spot and ran towards them.The aftermath of the explosion swept to the bodies of the two of them, adding several wounds to them.Fortunately, the two of them ran fairly fast and barely escaped the range of the explosion.
Ignoring the wounds on their own bodies, the two looked at Clark and his party who had already rushed into the tower, and they were about to follow in to make up for their mistakes.
"Wait a minute, don't move." Pei Cong'an and Jiang Xiaobai stopped one with each hand.
Pei Cong'an took out the hemostatic medicine that Chiliu had prepared before and handed it to the two of them.Jiang Xiaobai directly took out the hemostatic talisman and patted it on the two of them.
"Who told you to move?" Pei Cong'an said coldly.
"Dare to rush forward if you are still injured, don't want to die?" Jiang Xiaobai reprimanded.
Qi Ri, Fang Yuan: ...Why did it feel like these two were a little bit like a couple just now?
It's okay for the boss, he usually has a sullen face, but it's scary for Xiao Jiang's face to be cold.
While taking the medicine, Fang Yuan grinned and explained, "Isn't this a bit uncomfortable because I've been busy for a long time and this kid got ahead of me?"
The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows behind. They became praying mantises, and they feel a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile: "I still don't know who is the mantis and which is the oriole."
The two looked at him, not knowing why.Did Jiang Xiaobai discover any important information during the time they were arrested?
Anyway, there was still some time before the matter was resolved, so Jiang Xiaobai chatted with them about the news he got on the fourth floor today.
Clark couldn't wait to enter the tower.As early as when the two sides decided to exchange, he had already made up his mind to keep Jiang Xiaobai and the others out.He is also considered to be among the best in the primary organization, but he is still powerless against Pei Cong'an. If this is the case, they must not be allowed in.
Having made up his mind, as soon as he got the spar, Clark drove them out with a small bomb.The three of them entered the room, and Clark immediately closed the iron door again.
If that's the case, they won't even be able to get in.
Clark thought triumphantly, ignoring the fact that he also couldn't get out.
The scene in the tower was reflected in the eyes of the three, and Clark's expression was slightly stagnant.
This is an underground torture room. The torture room is filled with various instruments of torture. On the table in the center, there is a golden dagger inlaid with precious stones. The light lingering on the dagger looks extraordinary.
Is this the reward for clearing the dungeon?
Clark had heard that the more advanced dungeons would drop some good mission prizes, but such opportunities were rare, and he did not expect to encounter them today.
Rudolph and Aphra were jealous, but Clark was still here. They would never dare to snatch the spoils first, so they could only step aside and let Clark take it first.
Clark was very satisfied with their acquaintance, and stepped forward to hold the dagger.The dagger, which is already exquisite when viewed from a distance, is even more gorgeous when viewed up close.Both the workmanship and the gemstones on it seem to have been carefully selected.
Clark subconsciously took an identification technique, but unexpectedly, a series of question marks appeared on the dagger.This is because the level is too high to be displayed at all.If Clark had been cheerful at first, it would have been ecstasy.
The weapons in the game are all bound. With this weapon, maybe his score in the organization will also be upgraded.Just like Lin Chu and the others.
"How about this dagger?" someone asked from behind.
"Very good." Clark rubbed the dagger, loving this sharp weapon very much.
There was a chuckle behind him, and Clark's body froze suddenly.
No, shouldn't the people behind him be Rudolph and Aphra?Who was that person just now?
Turning around suddenly, Clark's face was pressed against a face.It was a man with a hollow chest, black hair and dark eyes, and his hair was stiff and straight. He had similar characteristics to those in the portraits.He was good-looking, but his face was as pale as a vampire.
The man coughed twice, and said with a smile: "I also think it's very good. I used this dagger to kill the priest back then."
Clark held back his panic and took two steps back. He couldn't help looking at the door, trying to find a chance to escape.But the room was locked by him a long time ago, and he actually cut off his way of life.
As for Rudolph and Aphra, whose limbs were being bitten by animals who didn't know where they came from, they could only struggle helplessly, but they had no room to resist.
The man seemed to be looking at a prey in a cage. Not only was he not in a hurry to kill him, but he was still telling the past: "The priest made a lot of money, and finally used the property he got to forge this dagger. When everyone else in the school died After I died, I found him in the priest's treasury. The man who has always been so arrogant peed his pants, crying and begging me to forgive him. In order to punish himself, he slapped his face swollen, just to show himself determination. I took Taran's souls to watch the scene, and then killed him with the dagger that the priest spent so much time forging."
Clark was looking for a place to escape and didn't care about him at all.
"It seems that the guests don't like my story. If so, let this scene end soon." Zhang Qiao snapped his fingers, and one monster after another appeared in the underground torture chamber.Some were animals in the zoo, and some were people killed by Clark.
King Nie and Yu Huan walked out holding hands. The two dolls were the first to strike. Silk threads flew from all directions and grabbed Clark's neck.The two pulled tightly from both ends, and Clark didn't even have the strength to resist, so he was decapitated.
The man sat in a chair, casually admiring the scene, waiting for the massacre to end.
The tower was not soundproof, and the screams inside could be clearly heard outside.Fang Yuan was terrified when he heard this, and trembled with folded arms: "This is too scary, luckily we weren't the ones who went in."
Just now Jiang Xiaobai had explained to them the murderous intent of the castle and the possible crisis in the tower.What is in the tower is not a secret at all, let alone a treasure, but an altar prepared by the owner of the castle for himself.
He escaped from school after sacrificing his heart back then, so what the owner of the castle lacked from the beginning to the end was a heart. After completing the heart, he can be resurrected like Skell.As for the source of the heart he chose, it was naturally Clark who had been chosen out of thousands of people.
Thanks to Clark, he stepped on the mines of the owner of the castle one by one after he came.Jiang Xiaobai wondered if the game was intentional, otherwise why would he find such an unreliable guy as Clark.
With a slightly more peaceful mind, it wouldn't be so miserable, and it would directly become a thorn in the side of the big boss.
Thinking of this, the screams in the tower finally ended, the door was opened from the inside, and a strong smell of blood rushed over.Jiang Xiaobai and the others took a few steps back to avoid the unpleasant smell, and looked at the people who came out of the castle.
In the deep winter weather, the man was wearing a coat, trousers and plush slippers.The gentle appearance doesn't look like a cruel boss, but more like a frail patient.Seeing them, the man smiled and nodded, and then said: "I'm very sorry, the agreed banquet has ended early, if you wish, you can stay in the castle for one night, the housekeeper is out to do some business, and he will probably be back in the evening. "
Qi Ri rolled his eyes: "You are the owner of the castle."
The man laughed loudly, showing his white teeth, looking very cheerful: "You can call me Zhang Qiao."
He seemed very nice, if the people hadn't heard him deal with Clark.
Jiang Xiaobai's eyes fell on his chest. Although his eyes were dark, Zhang Qiao still noticed it. He touched his chest and said, "I did get a new heart."
Zhang Qiao's unexpected heartiness made everyone relax a little bit, but they still didn't dare to underestimate him.If this man is really gentle, he won't wipe out the entire army of gamers.
However, the mountain road has not been completely dry, so it is really not suitable to go back today.No matter how vigilant they were, they still had to stay in the castle for one more night.
In the evening, everyone had dinner together. This time, instead of going to the banquet hall, they went to Zhang Qiao's dining room.The owner of this ancient castle is quite talkative, and he can chat about all kinds of things.Even if he lived in the mountains for a long time, he knew a lot about the outside world.
On the other hand, he didn't show any malice towards everyone. It seemed that the death of Clark and his party was the end of the incident, and Jiang Xiaobai and the others were drawn here as guests.
The next day, the butler finally returned to the mountain, along with the car that took them down the mountain.
"I went out to do some errands." The snow mountain on my body was melted by the flames of the fireplace, and the butler took out two pieces of paper and handed them to Pei Cong'an, "This is our pass, you can take a look."
The thing was delivered to Pei Cong'an, Jiang Xiaobai looked at it on tiptoe, Pei Cong'an noticed it, and bent slightly so that he could easily read the writing on it.
It is a legal residence permit for ghosts, and there are chapters in both the yin and yang realms.Jiang Xiaobai knew about this.Some powerful ghosts may not want to be reincarnated, and the underworld will spend a lot of manpower and material resources to force them. Therefore, if conditions permit and they will not harm innocent residents, the two realms of yin and yang allow them to live temporarily in the yang world.
Unexpectedly, the butler has been doing this for the past two days. It seems that the owner of the castle is having a good time.
Now that they have this thing, there is no need for Jiang Xiaobai and the others to forcibly face the powerful opponent, the owner of the ancient castle.With the matter of the castle settled, Jiang Xiaobai and the others should leave.
It's just that Jiang Xiaobai felt a little regretful.
He has gained a lot from this live broadcast, but it is a pity that he still has too little understanding of World Tree.No matter what, King Nie and the others are still junior taskers. They don't know much about World Tree, and the news they have gotten now is only some simple content.
In the car they didn't want to go back, the butler handed them an important item.
There was a dry vine in the transparent glass bottle, and the housekeeper delivered the thing to Jiang Xiaobai, explaining the cause and effect to them.
"The master has fallen into a deep sleep since he finished building the castle, but one day a power woke him up. This power wants to make a deal with the master, let the master build ghosts around the castle. He will keep sending People come in to fill the ghosts and beasts, increase the power of the master, and ask the master to pull people in, causing panic in this area."
Pei Cong'an frowned, took the vine from Jiang Xiaobai's hand and observed it carefully.
The housekeeper continued: "Just two conversations, the master knew that the force wanted him to cause turmoil here. Because he had experienced a bad childhood, the master hated such things. But at that time he just woke up, his body He is still very weak, and he has no heart, so his strength is even weaker, and he devised a plan when he had no choice."
"Let the world tree provide sinful people to play games in the castle, and the master took this opportunity to choose Clark's heart. After getting Clark's heart, the master's strength has greatly increased, and at the same time, he has the power to fight against this vine," said the butler. , "Before leaving, the master asked me to give the things to you, which can be regarded as a little compensation for you coming here."
Jiang Xiaobai didn't react when he was holding the vine.
Is this a surprise from heaven?
Just now I was thinking that there was no important clue, but this clue came running like long legs.
He couldn't help asking: "Has Mr. Zhang Qiao mentioned some characteristics of World Tree?"
The butler paused for a while before hesitatingly said: "The master said that this thing has no power, but it has no brains and is slow to react. You can solve it quietly first, and then wipe it out at a critical moment. But he also has a warning for you, isn't it All ghosts have enough self-control to face powerful temptations, and extremely vicious ghosts may appear at any time. If you encounter the same situation in the future, you should be more careful. Believe the words of ghosts, if you really don’t If you know how to choose, trust half of it.”
After all, Jiang Xiaobai didn't think it was a ghost that had lived for hundreds of years, and nodded seriously after listening carefully.
After the butler finished what he had to say, he sent them to the station and returned to the castle.
After returning to the city where he lived, Jiang Xiaobai found the bus, waved his hand and planned to go back.He gave the vines of the World Tree to Pei Cong'an.On the surface, this thing is of no use to him, but he took it and aroused Pei Cong'an's suspicion.On the other hand, after the vines he got last time were handed over to Si Xue, the association has not yet given a clear answer, and they don't know what it is.
Simply give the things to Pei Cong'an this time, and if both sides work together, there may be unexpected progress.
I thought this matter would end here, but unexpectedly, some unexpected things happened.
"Brother Pei, what are you doing?" Jiang Xiaobai sat on the bus with his bag in his arms, his eyes widened in surprise.
Pei Cong'an, who was supposed to go back with Fang Yuan and the others, was sitting next to him at this time, because he had just come out of the crisis in the castle, and the evil spirit on his body had not been wiped away, so he looked very intimidating.The people who got into the car afterward gave him a careful look, then walked past him cautiously.
Jiang Xiaobai wanted to laugh, but couldn't help being curious: "Brother Pei, are you dropping by with me?"
Pei Cong'an's expression remained unchanged: "I'll take you home." The last time Jiang Xiaobai went back alone, he received a letter from the ancient castle, and was involved in danger as a result.In view of his previous experience, Pei Cong'an was worried that he would go back alone.
"I'm such a big man, I don't need someone to send me home." Jiang Xiaobai pretended not to care, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help curling up. He quickly stretched out his hand to press the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't help the smile in his eyes.
Although there is no such thing as severing ties with the family, Jiang Xiaobai has no impression of his parents.In the early years, there were too many children, and the family couldn't support them, so they sent him out.Master has a straight personality, there are no twists and turns, it would be great if he can support him.What's more, Jiang Xiaobai has a high talent, and most of the time, he doesn't need to be distressed.
A few friends were even less worried that he would be in danger, it was almost as good for them to ask Jiang Xiaobai for help when they were in danger.
So when Pei Cong'an came out suddenly, Jiang Xiaobai felt a little hot in addition to being a novelty.
The two took the bus and changed buses, and finally returned to Jiang Xiaobai's rented home.But it was getting late at this time, and Pei Cong'an was very tired going back, Jiang Xiaobai said: "Brother Pei, why don't you stay at my house for one night, and go back tomorrow."
There is also a guest room in the place he rented, and sometimes friends come to take a rest.
We were familiar with doing missions together before, not to mention sleeping in the same room. Pei Cong'an had nothing to say, nodded and followed Jiang Xiaobai to the elevator.
The room was on the fifth floor. When Jiang Xiaobai went back, the afterglow of the setting sun came in through the corridor.The color of dusk did not make people feel safe, but rather treacherous.
Jiang Xiaobai didn't see any ghosts around him, but he couldn't help becoming vigilant in his heart.
He opened the door to go home and removed a pair of new slippers for Pei Cong'an.The two entered the house together.The decoration in the room is very simple, only a big TV is placed in the living room, and there is a rolled blanket on the sofa opposite.During the seven days when the master was away, the whole house was devoid of fireworks and looked empty.
Of course, the most conspicuous thing is of course the pile of instant noodles next to the dining table.
Jiang Xiaobai touched his cheek in embarrassment, and then said: "I usually order takeaway, and I only eat instant noodles when I am too lazy."
Pei Cong'an went to the kitchen to take a look, and sure enough, the kitchen utensils inside looked very new, not as if they had been used, and the refrigerator was also empty, with nothing in it.
He frowned and looked at it, and said, "Let's cook tonight."
"Cooking?" Jiang Xiaobai was confused, but he realized it in the next moment.
"Eh?"
The author has something to say: It’s a bit late today _(:з」∠)_ and I’m going to start a new copy

"I didn't expect that you are still alive, and it seems that the rewards are good." Clark stood at the top of the stairs, staring at them with a smile on his arms. Come to save this step, obediently hand over the things to me, and I can let you live."

Pei Cong'an took out his pistol, Clark took a step back, held the remote control and said: "I advise you not to act rashly, once I get injured, your companions will die along with them. Of course, you can also ignore their lives, But the power of this thunder is said to be very powerful, I am afraid that you will be injured together, and it is not certain whether the boss will take advantage of the chaos and kill you all."
Jiang Xiaobai gently tugged Pei Cong'an with his hand, then his expression changed, and he said with restrained anger, "Clark, you violated the rules of the game."
"Rules? What rules? This is a dead man's game." Clark sneered, "Rules are dead, but people are alive. Now, should you hand over the spar?"
Jiang Xiaobai looked up at Pei Cong'an, asking for his consent.
Pei Cong'an was silent for a while, then nodded slowly.
Jiang Xiaobai could only take out the spar from his bosom, unwilling to walk in front of Clark and send the spar to him.

He didn't dare to trade the spar now, he would only rest assured when he got the door of the tower, otherwise who knows if Pei Cong'an would snatch the things back again.

When they passed the zoo that day, they just took a look at it from a distance, but now that they were under the tower, everyone could see it more clearly.The iron gate is actually not bare, there are some patterns drawn on it.The patterns are also various animals, and Jiang Xiaobai, who read the white paper, knows that this represents Skell's generals.When they land on land, they will take the form of animals.
"Give me something." Clark held out his hand.
Jiang Xiaobai signaled him to let Fang Yuan and the two go.
Clark narrowed his eyes in displeasure, and still motioned for Rudolph to untie the bombs on their bodies. He didn't move the ropes on the two of them, and let Rudolph and the others continue to press them down.
"You have also seen my sincerity, bring the things."
Jiang Xiaobai had five crystals in his hand, he took out four and sent them to Clark, but he didn't hand over the remaining one.

Fang Yuan and Qi Ri rolled on the spot and ran towards them.The aftermath of the explosion swept to the bodies of the two of them, adding several wounds to them.Fortunately, the two of them ran fairly fast and barely escaped the range of the explosion.

"Wait a minute, don't move." Pei Cong'an and Jiang Xiaobai stopped one with each hand.
Pei Cong'an took out the hemostatic medicine that Chiliu had prepared before and handed it to the two of them.Jiang Xiaobai directly took out the hemostatic talisman and patted it on the two of them.
"Who told you to move?" Pei Cong'an said coldly.
"Dare to rush forward if you are still injured, don't want to die?" Jiang Xiaobai reprimanded.

King Nie and Yu Huan walked out holding hands. The two dolls were the first to strike. Silk threads flew from all directions and grabbed Clark's neck.The two pulled tightly from both ends, and Clark didn't even have the strength to resist, so he was decapitated.
The man sat in a chair, casually admiring the scene, waiting for the massacre to end.
The tower was not soundproof, and the screams inside could be clearly heard outside.Fang Yuan was terrified when he heard this, and trembled with folded arms: "This is too scary, luckily we weren't the ones who went in."
Just now Jiang Xiaobai had explained to them the murderous intent of the castle and the possible crisis in the tower.What is in the tower is not a secret at all, let alone a treasure, but an altar prepared by the owner of the castle for himself.
He escaped from school after sacrificing his heart back then, so what the owner of the castle lacked from the beginning to the end was a heart. After completing the heart, he can be resurrected like Skell.As for the source of the heart he chose, it was naturally Clark who had been chosen out of thousands of people.
Thanks to Clark, he stepped on the mines of the owner of the castle one by one after he came.Jiang Xiaobai wondered if the game was intentional, otherwise why would he find such an unreliable guy as Clark.
With a slightly more peaceful mind, it wouldn't be so miserable, and it would directly become a thorn in the side of the big boss.
Thinking of this, the screams in the tower finally ended, the door was opened from the inside, and a strong smell of blood rushed over.Jiang Xiaobai and the others took a few steps back to avoid the unpleasant smell, and looked at the people who came out of the castle.
In the deep winter weather, the man was wearing a coat, trousers and plush slippers.The gentle appearance doesn't look like a cruel boss, but more like a frail patient.Seeing them, the man smiled and nodded, and then said: "I'm very sorry, the agreed banquet has ended early, if you wish, you can stay in the castle for one night, the housekeeper is out to do some business, and he will probably be back in the evening. "
Qi Ri rolled his eyes: "You are the owner of the castle."
The man laughed loudly, showing his white teeth, looking very cheerful: "You can call me Zhang Qiao."
He seemed very nice, if the people hadn't heard him deal with Clark.
Jiang Xiaobai's eyes fell on his chest. Although his eyes were dark, Zhang Qiao still noticed it. He touched his chest and said, "I did get a new heart."
Zhang Qiao's unexpected heartiness made everyone relax a little bit, but they still didn't dare to underestimate him.If this man is really gentle, he won't wipe out the entire army of gamers.
However, the mountain road has not been completely dry, so it is really not suitable to go back today.No matter how vigilant they were, they still had to stay in the castle for one more night.
In the evening, everyone had dinner together. This time, instead of going to the banquet hall, they went to Zhang Qiao's dining room.The owner of this ancient castle is quite talkative, and he can chat about all kinds of things.Even if he lived in the mountains for a long time, he knew a lot about the outside world.
On the other hand, he didn't show any malice towards everyone. It seemed that the death of Clark and his party was the end of the incident, and Jiang Xiaobai and the others were drawn here as guests.
The next day, the butler finally returned to the mountain, along with the car that took them down the mountain.
"I went out to do some errands." The snow mountain on my body was melted by the flames of the fireplace, and the butler took out two pieces of paper and handed them to Pei Cong'an, "This is our pass, you can take a look."
The thing was delivered to Pei Cong'an, Jiang Xiaobai looked at it on tiptoe, Pei Cong'an noticed it, and bent slightly so that he could easily read the writing on it.
It is a legal residence permit for ghosts, and there are chapters in both the yin and yang realms.Jiang Xiaobai knew about this.Some powerful ghosts may not want to be reincarnated, and the underworld will spend a lot of manpower and material resources to force them. Therefore, if conditions permit and they will not harm innocent residents, the two realms of yin and yang allow them to live temporarily in the yang world.
Unexpectedly, the butler has been doing this for the past two days. It seems that the owner of the castle is having a good time.
Now that they have this thing, there is no need for Jiang Xiaobai and the others to forcibly face the powerful opponent, the owner of the ancient castle.With the matter of the castle settled, Jiang Xiaobai and the others should leave.
It's just that Jiang Xiaobai felt a little regretful.
He has gained a lot from this live broadcast, but it is a pity that he still has too little understanding of World Tree.No matter what, King Nie and the others are still junior taskers. They don't know much about World Tree, and the news they have gotten now is only some simple content.
In the car they didn't want to go back, the butler handed them an important item.
There was a dry vine in the transparent glass bottle, and the housekeeper delivered the thing to Jiang Xiaobai, explaining the cause and effect to them.
"The master has fallen into a deep sleep since he finished building the castle, but one day a power woke him up. This power wants to make a deal with the master, let the master build ghosts around the castle. He will keep sending People come in to fill the ghosts and beasts, increase the power of the master, and ask the master to pull people in, causing panic in this area."
Pei Cong'an frowned, took the vine from Jiang Xiaobai's hand and observed it carefully.
The housekeeper continued: "Just two conversations, the master knew that the force wanted him to cause turmoil here. Because he had experienced a bad childhood, the master hated such things. But at that time he just woke up, his body He is still very weak, and he has no heart, so his strength is even weaker, and he devised a plan when he had no choice."
"Let the world tree provide sinful people to play games in the castle, and the master took this opportunity to choose Clark's heart. After getting Clark's heart, the master's strength has greatly increased, and at the same time, he has the power to fight against this vine," said the butler. , "Before leaving, the master asked me to give the things to you, which can be regarded as a little compensation for you coming here."
Jiang Xiaobai didn't react when he was holding the vine.
Is this a surprise from heaven?
Just now I was thinking that there was no important clue, but this clue came running like long legs.
He couldn't help asking: "Has Mr. Zhang Qiao mentioned some characteristics of World Tree?"
The butler paused for a while before hesitatingly said: "The master said that this thing has no power, but it has no brains and is slow to react. You can solve it quietly first, and then wipe it out at a critical moment. But he also has a warning for you, isn't it All ghosts have enough self-control to face powerful temptations, and extremely vicious ghosts may appear at any time. If you encounter the same situation in the future, you should be more careful. Believe the words of ghosts, if you really don’t If you know how to choose, trust half of it.”
After all, Jiang Xiaobai didn't think it was a ghost that had lived for hundreds of years, and nodded seriously after listening carefully.
After the butler finished what he had to say, he sent them to the station and returned to the castle.
After returning to the city where he lived, Jiang Xiaobai found the bus, waved his hand and planned to go back.He gave the vines of the World Tree to Pei Cong'an.On the surface, this thing is of no use to him, but he took it and aroused Pei Cong'an's suspicion.On the other hand, after the vines he got last time were handed over to Si Xue, the association has not yet given a clear answer, and they don't know what it is.
Simply give the things to Pei Cong'an this time, and if both sides work together, there may be unexpected progress.
I thought this matter would end here, but unexpectedly, some unexpected things happened.
"Brother Pei, what are you doing?" Jiang Xiaobai sat on the bus with his bag in his arms, his eyes widened in surprise.
Pei Cong'an, who was supposed to go back with Fang Yuan and the others, was sitting next to him at this time, because he had just come out of the crisis in the castle, and the evil spirit on his body had not been wiped away, so he looked very intimidating.The people who got into the car afterward gave him a careful look, then walked past him cautiously.
Jiang Xiaobai wanted to laugh, but couldn't help being curious: "Brother Pei, are you dropping by with me?"
Pei Cong'an's expression remained unchanged: "I'll take you home." The last time Jiang Xiaobai went back alone, he received a letter from the ancient castle, and was involved in danger as a result.In view of his previous experience, Pei Cong'an was worried that he would go back alone.
"I'm such a big man, I don't need someone to send me home." Jiang Xiaobai pretended not to care, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help curling up. He quickly stretched out his hand to press the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't help the smile in his eyes.
Although there is no such thing as severing ties with the family, Jiang Xiaobai has no impression of his parents.In the early years, there were too many children, and the family couldn't support them, so they sent him out.Master has a straight personality, there are no twists and turns, it would be great if he can support him.What's more, Jiang Xiaobai has a high talent, and most of the time, he doesn't need to be distressed.
A few friends were even less worried that he would be in danger, it was almost as good for them to ask Jiang Xiaobai for help when they were in danger.
So when Pei Cong'an came out suddenly, Jiang Xiaobai felt a little hot in addition to being a novelty.
The two took the bus and changed buses, and finally returned to Jiang Xiaobai's rented home.But it was getting late at this time, and Pei Cong'an was very tired going back, Jiang Xiaobai said: "Brother Pei, why don't you stay at my house for one night, and go back tomorrow."
There is also a guest room in the place he rented, and sometimes friends come to take a rest.
We were familiar with doing missions together before, not to mention sleeping in the same room. Pei Cong'an had nothing to say, nodded and followed Jiang Xiaobai to the elevator.
The room was on the fifth floor. When Jiang Xiaobai went back, the afterglow of the setting sun came in through the corridor.The color of dusk did not make people feel safe, but rather treacherous.
Jiang Xiaobai didn't see any ghosts around him, but he couldn't help becoming vigilant in his heart.
He opened the door to go home and removed a pair of new slippers for Pei Cong'an.The two entered the house together.The decoration in the room is very simple, only a big TV is placed in the living room, and there is a rolled blanket on the sofa opposite.During the seven days when the master was away, the whole house was devoid of fireworks and looked empty.
Of course, the most conspicuous thing is of course the pile of instant noodles next to the dining table.
Jiang Xiaobai touched his cheek in embarrassment, and then said: "I usually order takeaway, and I only eat instant noodles when I am too lazy."
Pei Cong'an went to the kitchen to take a look, and sure enough, the kitchen utensils inside looked very new, not as if they had been used, and the refrigerator was also empty, with nothing in it.
He frowned and looked at it, and said, "Let's cook tonight."
"Cooking?" Jiang Xiaobai was confused, but he realized it in the next moment.
"Eh?"
