I really only stop

It's over~ No matter from which angle you look at it, the existence named "Lu Xi" is about to end~

Recalling Miss Saintess' attitude towards the demons, Lu Xi slightly closed his eyes, with a serene and peaceful smile on the corner of his mouth——

--talent!Strange!what!

The protagonist, Mr., suddenly opened his eyes and stared viciously at the smiling old man in front of him.

Why was my hidden status as a good cadre being seen through by an old man mowing grass? !Is it true that, as written in that famous novel, the peerless masters who dominate the rivers and lakes all have a little habit of living in seclusion and doing hygiene? !

Those are not the point!Now the most important thing is to shut up this mysterious old man!

"Ah, even though I have made some achievements, it is the first time that I have been directly praised as a [pillar] like this~"

Before Yuxia could react, Lu Xi scratched his head embarrassingly, showing a bright and harmless smile:

"All of this is inseparable from the help of Yuxia and the others. Of course, I also want to thank Chairman Faron and Mr. Memphis for their help-even if I am helped by so many people, I am only slightly better than Stoshi here. Mr. Long is just one. If you want to say [National Pillar], he is more suitable for this title."

Under the disadvantageous conditions of surprise + bewilderment, he was able to react in an instant, and replaced the "cadre" in the old man's words with the "pillar" with similar semantics to cleverly get through?

This kid has great potential.

The purpose of the first trial has been achieved, Da Vinci stroked his beard with a smile, and naturally he would not argue with Lucido any more:

"Hahaha, you young people are the most powerful support for the future of the empire, so naturally you are all [talented talents]!"

so far so good.

Seeing this unpredictable old man descending the donkey, Lu Xi, who had originally planned for the worst, heaved a long sigh of relief.He began to consciously chat with Da Vinci about family matters, so as to firmly control the conversation with himself.

Well, field control skills are also commendable.As long as the conversation is between the two of us, I don't have to worry about revealing anything to anyone else.

He nodded imperceptibly, but when the old man looked at the teammates around Lu Xi, he couldn't help frowning.

It's just that there seems to be something wrong with this style of work.Including Yuxiya's child, one, two, and three of his teammates are all so beautiful, this brat can't be a philanderer, can he?

no!For the future happiness of my granddaughter, I must try him here!

After pondering for a while, the old man kindly opened his mouth:

"That, little Lucy."

What the hell is this called?Am I small in the eyes of this old man?

Despite the slander in his heart, Lu Xi responded politely on the surface:

"what happened?"

"Seeing such an outstanding young talent like you, I can't help but feel a little bit moved in my heart, old man."

After stroking his snow-white beard, the old man added as if he just remembered:

"Of course, you can rest assured that this is entirely my [love of talent] so don't get it wrong! Hahaha!"

"That's natural, no no no."

Lu Xi, who was increasingly confused about what the old man in front of him wanted, could only laugh stiffly:

"I am quite satisfied with my current life. Although the life of an adventurer is a bit hard, I can indeed help more people with my own strength."

——Is this to avoid my invitation to let him join a certain force, and to prepare for myself in advance?

Seeing Xiao Jiujiu in Lu Xi's heart at a glance, the old man smiled sinisterly.

What a clever little ghost, ever since my good granddaughter and her grandma learned to 'hands but never speak (to Da Vinci's special version)', the old man and I haven't had such a fast and hidden verbal confrontation for a long time.

But you're still too tender, boy.

"That's good, that's good. Although the value of a person will be judged by the society after death, from the perspective of the old man, compared with the memory of others after death, I should try my best to make myself feel comfortable and comfortable when I am alive." Satisfaction is the most important thing."

First talking about the philosophy of life to paralyze Lu Xi, at the moment when the protagonist relaxes his vigilance for a while, the old Mr. Da Vinci finally wanted to see him, deliberately raised his voice a little, and asked loudly:

"The reason why the old man said [can't help being tempted] is actually that I have a granddaughter who is about the same age as you, and the [characteristics] look very similar--what I want to ask you is, do you have someone [to date]?" what?"

【stare! 】

In just a moment, Lu Xi felt three sharp eyes fixed on his back.

Damn old man, you play hard!

Shocked, Lu Xi stared straight at the old man in front of him, but was shocked to find that the other party used the cover of his body to proudly make a grimace that only he could see.

Let's say this old guy did it on purpose!Detonating my extremely subtle Shura field, this is something that even that bastard pink hair only puts into words but dares not to implement!

Instantly realizing that the current situation is not a crisis situation that can be fooled by [Responsiveness], Lu Xi resolutely turned on Time Stop.

Although it is not as good as the infinite file loading in galgame to choose a perfect ending, our time stop has unlimited time to think!

Even if you go to the library to look up information and write a thesis, I will pass your test today!

Glaring fiercely at the old man who dug a big hole for him, Lu Xi turned his head and met the girls' eyes with different meanings.

Celica turned her head away pretending to be "huh~ I don't care~", but quietly turned her ear to this side, the standard eavesdropping appearance - I really don't know why this crumb is here At this time, he showed a standard arrogant side.

Nana directly covered her cheeks, only revealing a pair of big flickering eyes looking at this side through her fingers.Perhaps because of being too shy, the girl's earlobe couldn't help but turn red—well, the soft girl is still as cute as ever.

As for Miss Yuxia... Well, her performance seems to be a little subtle.

Glancing at Yuxia's movements, Lu Xi expressed a little confusion.

What the hell is the stepping motion with one foot?Did Yuxia want to say something just now?

Just when Lu Xi was puzzled, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and suddenly saw a certain inconspicuous curly hair hiding in a corner and giggling.

Hey, are you so happy to see me enter the Shura field route, Curly?

The doubts just now were temporarily thrown out of the sky, and Lu Xi, who was showing a gloomy smile, just grabbed Brother Curly by the collar and dragged him to a certain place in the palace.

Speaking of which, everyone in the imperial capital is looking for him now, right?

Who is the lucky guard boy who can meet such a good thing as "the target appears in front of you in the blink of an eye"?

Chapter 324 The Search Begins

In the state of time-stop, he packed the curly-haired brother Ma Liu and threw it under the feet of a royal guard. Lu Xi first smiled sullenly twice, and then sighed softly in the blink of an eye.

Although I took revenge on a certain curly hair that secretly watched my show, it did not solve the crisis situation I just encountered.

Walking away from Brother Curly without any hesitation, Lu Xi returned to the garden and carefully looked at the strange old man in front of him who easily exploded his Shura field.

Because he dug a series of big holes for me as soon as he came out, I didn't look at this old man carefully before.Now that he is in a time stop, he can take a good look at him.

From the outside, the old man was plainly dressed, but his face was particularly tough.A pair of wise and agile eyes have not lost their brilliance even at this age - it is not difficult to see that when he was young, he should be able to be classified into the category of people who are invincible in the world.

Just by looking at it, he should belong to the wise old man who speaks wittily and humorously, and can pass on the most profound truths to the younger generation in the most simple and interesting way.However, thinking of the huge pit he just dug for himself, Lu Xi looked at the old urchin with resentment in his eyes.

Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous!

Since it was impossible to confirm the identity of the old man from the outside, Lucy simply closed his eyes and looked at the old man's pocket.

The old man's belongings were surprisingly simple. Apart from the necessary tools for building grass, there was only a smoking pipe that looked like it had been used for a long time and a fist-sized regular hexahedron that seemed a bit special.

A well-known detective once summed up a set of methods of observing things and knowing people, which is called "deductive method".Lu Xi thinks that his brain and eyesight can keep up, and he can think as much as he wants in the time-stop state, so he can use it now.

"Well, although I have a pipe, I don't have a corresponding tobacco box with me, and the smell from the pipe is also a bit strange...Is it mint? Can mint be smoked these days?"

Poured out a few slices of fresh mint from the pipe, seeing that it was as clean as new without even a trace of burnt, Lu Xi couldn't help but gasped when he suddenly thought of something:

"Is it because I was forced to quit smoking so I had no choice but to find a substitute? Isn't this too miserable?"

According to a certain study, without the compulsory supervision of close relatives of the opposite sex, the possibility of men quitting smoking voluntarily does not exceed 5.00% to [-]%.

In other words, if the old man in front of him has the same way of thinking as most men—

"It is very likely that the target is a strict wife, but the possibility of being controlled by the [granddaughter] mentioned by the target just now cannot be ruled out."

Pausing thoughtfully, Lu Xi reached out and picked up the regular hexahedron found from the old man.

The thing held in the hand does not have the high-tech feeling of the so-called "Rubik's Cube" in the movie that the Autobots smashed and destroyed. The whole regular hexahedron seems to be planed from solid wood. When holding it, not only can you not feel the original rough texture of wood, but it also has a slight warmth unique to natural materials.

Although this regular hexahedron looks seamless and just an ordinary square piece of wood, for some reason, Lu Xi always feels that something is wrong.

To test his guess, he carefully slid his fingertips along the grain of the wood.Naturally, nothing was found at the beginning, but when a certain corner was touched, the regular hexahedron suddenly made a 'click' sound, and then, a gap miraculously appeared on the originally seamless surface.

"It really is a trap box."

Nodding as expected, Lu Xi looked at the trick box in his hand with a bit of nostalgia in his eyes:

"When I was on Earth, I used it to have fun every day. After traveling for so long, I don't know if the technique has regressed. Don't think about it so much for now, let's see what is inside."

--------------

"……That's it?"

After slowly cracking open the complicated mechanism box, Lu Xi's voice became a little weird as he watched the two round little things falling out of it speechlessly:

"Two small coins? It's not even gold, but it's still a small silver coin? Is it necessary to spend so much trouble hiding it in a box?"

Staring at the smirking old man who was stopped in front of him, Lu Xi became more and more angry.Armed with previous experience, he slipped into the palace with ease, got into the study and began to write quickly.

Well, that's about it.

After checking what he had written again, Lu Xi nodded with satisfaction, put the small note in the original position of the trick box, assembled the trick box as it was, and stuffed it into the old man's body together with the pipe.

After doing all this, he completely returned to the original point, looked at the smirking old man, and couldn't help sighing quietly:

"Sure enough, unlike in the comics, in the real world, no one will carry any great secrets with them at all times—not to mention the old man's attire, so you can tell that he is here to pass the time."

But that's okay!There is a second trick to the omnipotent deductive method!

Turning his gaze to Yuxia, Lu Xi remembered the name the girl called out when she saw the old man for the first time.

An existence that can be called 'Grandpa' affectionately by a noble lady like a saint...could it be the previous Emperor His Majesty?

It is possible.If you think about it in this way, the old man's description of "has a granddaughter of the right age" just now is just right.

However, this idea has a fatal flaw——

[It's this smiling face! 】

Glancing at the smirk on the old naughty boy's face, which was somewhat similar to that of Selika when he jumped, Lu Xi resolutely ruled out the possibility that this guy was the previous emperor.

Needless to say, the emperor's uncle is calm and prestige, and his own lady saint is also very extravagant and seductive when she switches to the princess mode. As for the old man in front of him—impossible, impossible.

Besides, who else has the qualifications to be called 'Grandpa' by Yuxia...

A flash of lightning suddenly flashed in his mind, Lu Xi turned his head and rushed into the palace again.

------------------

The undercover girl is in a good mood today.

Earlier, Yuxia sent a magic communication, saying that she would go back to the imperial capital to see her.Even though meeting this out-of-spec Holy Empress needed to hide her demonic nature more carefully, Claire was so happy to see her good friend after a long absence that she couldn't help humming a ditty.

When it comes to [hidden demon nature], there seems to be someone who works a thousand times harder than me, right?

Recalling the excitement when she hung up the [Magic Communication] that day, the undercover girl couldn't help sticking out her tongue a little.

In order to avoid causing any trouble to Lucy by reconfirming the situation, I have not taken the initiative to call back.And Lu Xi never called again—at first I was still worried that there might be some trouble over there, but when I heard Yuxia's gentle tone in the magic communication, I was at ease again .

Yuxia has been a little clumsy emotionally since she was a child. After being trained by the great sages of the sanctuary in an ultra-elite style, she has become outstanding beyond ordinary people's imagination, but she is still the one I am very familiar with inside.

Slightly clumsy, serious and kind-hearted, she has become a reliable saintess recognized by everyone in terms of wisdom and strength, but she is as pure as a five-year-old cat in certain things. kid.

"Push."

Recalling the scene when little Yuxia secretly tugged on her sleeves when she was a child, with an expression of knowing the biggest secret in the world, and told her seriously, "[Love] seems to be very powerful", Ke Lele couldn't help laughing.

If I don't tell others, it would be difficult for everyone to imagine that Miss Yuxia, who looks polite and gentle, has such a side, right?

Even Lu Xiqing was the same.Although I am a colleague standing on the same front as you in name, don't expect me to tell you all the secrets of my good friend~

Let the time pass faster~ I really want to see this stupid saintess that only I know~

"Yo, Claire."

The sudden greeting from behind made the undercover girl's body tense up instantly.
