my dignified devil
Chapter 10
While I was thinking, the Faceless Demon kept touching my face with his cold little hands, and his tone was rather regretful: "My face used to be no worse than yours."
I perfunctorily said, "What did you look like before?"
He got excited and gestured on his face with his hand: "Very fair, black eyebrows, cherry mouth, almond eyes, high nose bridge, everyone likes me, but I only love Xiao Lang."
Listening to his incoherent words, I grasped a detail: "...Are you a woman?"
He ignored me, covered his head, with a look of pain on his face: "Who is Xiao Lang?"
I also want to ask you.
He lay down on the table and completely ignored me.
You ignore me, which faceless demon is chasing me?
Forget it, come back tomorrow, when he should get a new one.I always think about it.
In the small hall on the second floor of the inn, Li Furan and Zhu Baiying were already there, they ignored each other, and the atmosphere was awkward.
When I came up, Li Furan glanced at me, continued to face the wall, Zhu Baiying saluted me as a fellow student, and took the initiative to greet: "Junior Brother Xing, have you gained anything?"
I pretended to be emotional, saying that I didn't find anything, and the Faceless Demon was too cunning.
Zhu Baiying echoed a few words and asked, "Speaking of which, what about the two junior brothers?"
Just as I was about to answer, Xuan Wei came slowly upstairs with Feng Xiao in the corner of my eye.
Feng Xiao was holding on to the handrail of the stairs, looking up at the corner to reveal a beautiful face, with black eyebrows, almond eyes, a straight nose, and a small cherry mouth.
Isn't this what the Faceless Demon described?
A basket of question marks popped into my head.
15. Chapter 15
Feng Xiao, Feng Xiao, I silently read his name, does Feng Xiao have something to do with the Faceless Demon?
Zhou Lin and Wang Li were the last ones to come back. Seeing them talking and laughing, Xuan Wei looked unhappy: "Junior brother came back so late, what clue did he find?"
Of course not, it was obvious at a glance that the two of them went for a stroll after returning to the city.
They were silent.
Xuan Wei finished teasing and didn't pursue further, and said directly: "Today, Feng Xiao and I went to the City Lord's Mansion, and carefully compared and analyzed the files of the first thirteen cases."
"What did you find?" Li Furan interrupted.
Xuan Wei, who was dissatisfied with his unceremonious attitude, smiled and said: "Of course there are discoveries, but it's not too big. I still want to hear about Brother Li's achievements today."
Zhu Baiying quickly smoothed things over: "We interviewed a few of the victim's companions, and the information we got was similar to what was in the case file. Let's talk about it first, brother."
Lifting up a strand of black hair, Feng Xiao smiled slightly: "Let me tell you, among the thirteen victims, the first one was killed four and a half months ago. Since then, the Faceless Demon has died every ten days. Knowing how to commit crimes, the Faceless Demon peeled off their faces and took away their cultivation base. The Faceless Demon itself is ugly, and he only preys on beautiful monks. Under the influence of his curse, ten days should be the best time for decay.”
"Wait." I interrupted him, "How do you know that the Faceless Demons are using their faces as masks? This is not the first victim to witness."
Turning his eyes, Feng Xiao and I looked at each other: "At that time, the interval was over ten days, the mask may have been corrupted, and besides, I'm just speculating."
I nodded and smiled: "Okay."
He continued: "The monks who died at the beginning all lived in this city, so the Faceless Demon should have appeared no earlier than March this year, and the place where he first appeared was this city."
"Some of the monks who died later died on the day they entered the city, and the Faceless Demon must have been paying attention to this place all the time. This can also be confirmed from the fact that the parasitic shop waiter knocked on my door early this morning."
"So we believe that the Faceless Demon is likely to be a monk who came to this city in early March this year, and his place of residence is not near the city gate, but in the woods on the outskirts of the city. The woman who witnessed the correction encountered a phantom array on the outskirts of the city, and the Faceless Demon was in the outskirts of the city. The woods are very likely."
"So." He changed the subject and asked me, "What did Junior Brother find in the outskirts of the city?"
"If I find something, can I still stand here?" I raised my eyebrows and asked back.
Feng Xiao still had a gentle smile on his face: "The three juniors are walking together, and the Faceless Demon dare not do anything. Feng Xiao doesn't mean anything malicious, but just wants to ask the juniors if they have found anything like the relics of the formation."
"Oh, that's right. I blamed senior brother wrongly. Unfortunately, there is nothing in the forest. If senior brother has any doubts, you might as well go and check it yourself."
I went back with yin and yang, showing no weakness.
If he went to check and lost his life, it would save me to make another trip to make excuses.
"Junior Brother Xing, don't worry, Feng Xiao is also eager to solve the case." Xuan Wei said, "Since there are no clues in the forest, tomorrow we will search one by one according to the list of monks who entered the city to screen out suspicious people. Although the people who entered the city in March It is acceptable to only keep the four and a half months in the city."
Zhou Lin and Wang Li hurriedly responded: "I think what brother said makes sense."
"Just do it this way."
Li Furan put down the teacup that he had been playing with for a long time: "You can go by yourself if you want." He went straight back to the room.
This small meeting broke up badly, I didn't express my opinion, I went to play with the Faceless Demon early tomorrow, whoever likes to do boring things like lists.
I didn't eavesdrop, it's because their formation is too soundproof.
The bastards Zhou Lin and Wang Li had the loudest voices: "I shouldn't have listened to your choice of this task. We have just established the foundation, and it is so difficult to choose. If you confess to wasting hundreds of years of life, don't worry about it in the next life." When it comes to building a foundation, whether or not you have spiritual roots are two different things.”
"At this time, you are blaming me. At the beginning, I said that the senior brother chose this mission, and we can just run along. Didn't you agree?"
"How do I know it's so difficult? Look at who they are, there are three disciples from Bafeng, and the weakest one also has something like the Light Escape Talisman, which is only available to rich people. How can we compare with them."
"Isn't the most deceitful task of the whole sect of shit, who knows who will come from other peaks."
"What do we do tomorrow? Just follow the elder brother and that bitch to make a list?"
"Hey, what are you talking about, Feng Xiao is well-known on the spectrum, with that face, that figure, tsk."
"Then he also has a woman's face."
"Be careful, don't you see that the senior brother is walking very close to him?"
"Could it be that senior brother is, this?"
They both smiled wretchedly.
Xuan Wei is not.
Next door here, as the sound of the water disappeared, Xuan Wei's exclamation sounded: "Feng Xiao, why are you dressed like this?"
Put on some clothes for you.
"Senior brother, we are all men, so there is nothing to shy away from." Feng Xiao said, "Let me wash senior brother's feet."
"No need!" Xuan Wei's tone was terrified.
"Senior brother took me in, this is what I should do."
"If this puppet hadn't appeared, I would never have kept you." Xuan Wei was quite ruthless.
"Why is this, brother, I have always admired you."
"Brother, I have admired you for a long time." Zhu Baiying's tone was firm, her voice trembling slightly.
"That has nothing to do with me." Li Furan's voice was as cold as ever.
On both sides of an aisle are big disciples who are equally puzzled.
"Do you have a sweetheart?" Zhu Baiying asked painfully.
"No."
"Why can't you have a try with me, I can change anything you don't like."
"I said long ago that my heart is only for the way of the sword, and I don't care about the love of my children."
"Is it really not possible?"
"Go out and don't come again."
The door slammed shut, and Zhu Baiying went back to her room and burst into tears.
There are so many melons tonight.
16. Chapter 16
While there was a lot of noise in several rooms, a person quietly came to my door, tilting his head and cracking the formation.
When I opened the door, I pulled her in. Her rotten face was full of confusion: "How did you know I was here?"
I also don't understand: "Why are you here? Didn't you agree to see you tomorrow."
When I interrupted, the Faceless Demon forgot the doubt just now, and explained with some embarrassment: "When I looked in the mirror, I thought of you. I really like you, and I can't wait. It's just passed the time, so I didn't lie. You, it's time for today."
Doubts abounded in my heart. Since Feng Xiao's appearance was exactly the same as what the Faceless Demon described, why didn't the Faceless Demon look for him?This monster only looks at the face.And wasn't it his door that the Faceless Demon knocked on last night?No, according to what the devil said, today is the day for her to do it. With her lackluster behavior, she doesn't seem to be able to deceive people. Then who released the puppet yesterday morning?
The Faceless Demon rubbed her hands together uneasily: "Can I do it?" She blinked and salivated at my face.
"Well, no." I rubbed my chin, "I can give you my face, but I want to understand clearly, you can answer a few questions for me first."
She was upset and attacked me with a wave of her claws.
Dodging, I jumped onto the table, and a mask as thin as a cicada's wings and clean as jade appeared in my hand, with a light flick, the light on the mask flowed, quietly changing into Feng Xiao's appearance.Turning the mask towards the Faceless Demon, I said, "How about this face for you?"
When she saw the mask, she reached out and snatched it, her eyes lingered on it, her expression was a bit reminiscent, a bit pensive, a bit pained, this expression was slightly less scary on her face that was gradually decaying visible to the naked eye.
After a long time, she said, "It's such a beautiful face, why does it feel like I've seen it before?"
If you don't see him for a long time, even your own appearance will gradually become blurred in your memory.Therefore, this does not eliminate Feng Xiao's suspicion.
She quickly put on the mask, and Feng Xiao's face fit perfectly on her bare face.
"I, why do I feel
