The handsome man in the entertainment industry

A shadow puppet soldier "escorted" Ruan Mudeng and his shadow into the living room, and when they were three or four meters away from the coffee table and sofa, they stopped moving forward, apparently to keep him away.

Xiao Xiao nodded to Ruan Mudeng, signaling him not to move, and not to worry, so she walked forward and sat opposite Xiao Ning.

"When did you learn the unique 'Lantern and Shadow Theater' of the old Zhang family in Huayin, Shaanxi?"

After sitting down, Xiao Xiao asked straight to the point.

"I have so much free time these years, and I have traveled all over the world. As long as I have the heart to learn something, I can always learn it."

Xiao Ning showed a meaningful smile at his junior brother, and added softly: "Besides, their unique skill is not too difficult to learn."

"Really?"

Xiao Xiao looked at him with raised eyebrows, and sarcastically said: "No wonder you are willing to condescend and have been acting in 'Bai Yiming' for so many years. It turns out that it is just convenient for you to take the opportunity to steal teachers everywhere!"

He thought for a while, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips, "So, you also learned your 'Painted Skin' from Zhang Jiashun?"

Xiao Xiao raised her hand and nodded her face, "I just don't know if the Huayin Zhang family who you stole as a teacher are still alive."

"Well, you also think my 'Painted Skin' is not bad?"

Xiao Ning picked up the tea soup he had made, took a sip, ignored his junior brother's questioning about the fate of the Zhang family, and touched his cheek again.

"I practiced for a long time before I could draw the current appearance which is about [-]% similar to the previous one... I can't help it, the appearance called 'Bai Yiming' is too famous, it's very inconvenient to do anything with that face .”

Xiao Xiao stared at Xiao Ning's mask painted on human skin, secretly clenched her hands into fists, resisting the urge to lift the table and splash hot tea on the other's face.

Obviously, he had seen his face since he was a child, and he should have been very familiar and very kind, but when he saw it again at this time, he just felt nausea.

"Then what if you change your appearance to make it easier to go out?"

Xiao Xiao stared at Xiao Ning's face, clenched her molars secretly, "What are you going to do?"

"I didn't do anything."

Xiao Ning spread his hands and smiled innocently at his junior brother.

"It's you, I haven't seen you in a few months, the change is really big..."

As he said, he stretched out his right hand, crossed the coffee table, and gently brushed away Xiao Xiao's bangs hanging from his forehead.

"You actually returned to your physical body."

"Yes, thanks to you, if you can't go back, you can only wait for your soul to fly away."

Xiao Xiao didn't avoid his touch, but just replied with a sneer.

"I think it's more than that?"

Xiao Ning tilted his head to ponder for a moment, moved his finger to Xiao Xiao's shirt collar, pulled it out suddenly, and a button burst open, exposing one side of his collarbone and half of his shoulder.

On Xiao Xiao's fair and moist skin, there were two or three spots of red marks in different shades, like peach petals falling on the snow.

"Your apprentice is quite capable."

For the first time tonight, Xiao Ning glanced straight at Ruan Mudeng who was standing a few meters away, then turned to Xiao Xiao and smiled:

"What did he do to make you willingly give up the boy body that you have guarded for hundreds of years?"

Xiao Xiao hated Xiao Ning for thinking about his precious apprentice the most, and even more hated that this person used Ruan Mudeng's experience of breaking into Jiang Zhenren's tomb alone to talk about it.

He shook off Xiao Ning's hand holding his collar, "Instead of caring about my affairs, why not talk about the good things you have done these days?"

Xiao Xiao sneered and said, "What are those two jade cicadas, one black and one white, used for? It's worth your big fight to attack innocent ordinary people?!"

"Oh?"

There was a hint of surprise in Xiao Ning's eyes, and after a while, he quickly covered it up.

"You know I'm looking for jade cicadas, but don't know what they are for?"

He shook his head very regretfully, and sighed in the tone of a teacher teaching an incompetent junior: "You, you are just too playful, why haven't you improved after hundreds of years?"

"Forget it, I don't want to 'grow up' like you!"

Xiao Xiao didn't want to accompany him here anymore, playing Tai Chi and going around in circles, wasting time with plain nonsense, so she just went straight to the point and made it clear what she wanted to say:

"Huang Shengping, it's right with you, right? Can you give him back to us?"

"Not bad, have you checked this far?"

Xiao Ning seemed to really not expect Xiao Xiao and Ruan Mudeng to come for the father of the two brothers and sisters, showing a slightly surprised expression.

He thought for a while, then smiled and nodded indifferently.

"Okay, you can take him back, he's useless to me anyway."

As he spoke, Xiao Ning picked up a bell with a copper handle upside down on the tea table, and shook it a few times into the void. After a while, there were two silhouette soldiers, "carrying" a middle-aged man, and turned around from the porch. Come out and slowly walk up to the two of them.

Xiao Xiao carefully looked at the middle-aged man in front of her.

He had seen a group photo of a family of four on Huang Jiajun's mobile phone. This middle-aged man was indeed Huang Shengping, but at this time he did not have the capable look of the head of the family in the photo at all. Instead, his eyes were dull and his mouth was open. The shoulders are slumped, obviously in a state of trance and insanity.

"What did you do to him?!"

Xiao Xiao turned her head and asked sharply.

"I searched his soul."

Xiao Ning answered very simply.

"After all, it is possible for a human to lie. If you want to know something, of course it is faster and more convenient to use the soul search technique."

"...You... scum!"

When Xiao Xiao gritted his teeth and said the last two words, the small dagger in the shape of a golden snake had slipped out of his cuff. The next second, he kicked over the exquisite tea set on the table, jumped onto the coffee table, flipped his wrist, and the golden dagger in his palm The cold light went towards Xiao Ning's throat.

No matter how many methods Xiao Ning has, what he is using at this time is still the body of the twin brothers of the Bai family.

"Bai Yiming" is originally a reincarnation of the bardo, with extremely special horoscopes and fate, born with excessive yin energy and weak constitution.

Because of his limited physical condition, it is really not suitable for martial arts practice. Xiao Xiao, who brought up "Bai Yiming" from a young age, couldn't be more clear-no matter how capable Xiao Ning is, as long as he still uses Bai Yiming's body, he will be able to do so when he is unexpectedly close. When fighting in person, he is definitely not his opponent!

Sure enough, when the dagger stabbed out, Xiao Ning's eyes froze, and he quickly dodged to the side. Although he narrowly avoided the vital point, the sharp blade still cut through his fake face, and left a scar on the lower cheek. Gap of blood.

"I advise you not to act rashly."

Xiao Ning wiped the blood on his face, raised his chin, and signaled Xiao Xiao to look around the living room.

Xiao Xiao swung her dagger horizontally, still pressed against Xiao Ning's throat, and turned her head to look around.

On the floor of the living room, dozens of black silhouettes appeared at some point, all dressed up as soldiers wearing armor and holding spines. At first glance, it seemed as if an army had crowded into the living room.

"With you alone, can you protect your precious apprentice, and the middle-aged uncle over there?"

Xiao Ning didn't seem to care about the sharp knife at his throat, he smiled calmly and calmly.

He patted Xiao Xiao's cheek lightly with bloody fingers, and imprinted two petal-like fingerprints on it.

"Don't worry, I won't embarrass you today, go back."

Chapter 116: Twelve, Yu Chan 09

Maybe Xiao Ning really didn't think that Xiao Xiao and Ruan Mudeng would be killed now, but he kept his promise and asked the shadow puppets to take the two of them, along with Huang Shengping who promised to let go, to "" "Pressed" out, and "sent" all the way out of the yard.

When the three of them stood on the main road of the villa area, those shadow puppets disappeared quietly into the lighting range of the street lamps just like when they suddenly appeared before.

"Let's go back first."

Xiao Xiao looked back at the villa behind her that had become quiet and smeared again, and then looked at the father of the Huang family who was half-armed and half-dragged by Ruan Mudeng, who couldn't even walk steadily. said the apprentice.

Ruan Mudeng nodded, supported Huang Shengping, and followed behind Xiao Xiao.

Indeed, based on the huge gap between them and Xiao Ning in terms of skills, there is absolutely no chance of winning if they confront each other rashly.And for them, each other's safety comes first, it's not worth fighting head-on with Xiao Ning.

After all, their goal tonight is to find and rescue the missing Huang Shengping, and it is a blessing that they can successfully achieve their goal now.

The so-called "soul search technique" is to directly search for a specific piece of memory or knowledge in other people's three souls and seven souls through magic techniques. The effect is a bit like the veritaserum used in torture.

But anyone who has experienced the soul search technique, whether it is a cultivator with a different technique or an ordinary person who is ignorant, will suffer more or less mental damage depending on the duration of the technique.

In milder cases, there will be a splitting headache, confused thinking, and emotional irritability for a period of time; in severe cases, it will appear as dementia, slurred speech, and unable to take care of themselves; in severe cases, the whole body will convulse due to mental breakdown, and then die on the spot.

Naturally, the Fulu sect represented by the Maoshan lineage would not be able to teach such vicious spells, but based on the principle of "must know", there is no lack of records on this aspect.It's just that although Xiao Xiao knows some knowledge of soul searching, it is absolutely impossible for him to cure Huang Shengping's dementia.

"I have read some books before, which roughly say that if it is not a particularly serious sequelae, if it is treated properly, it will probably recover in about two or three years."

Xiao Xiao looked at her with a headache, even though Ruan Mudeng held her arm, she still walked one step at a time.
