Xia Ge: "Then if I ask your identity, will you tell me?"
Cloaked Man: "If you'll tell me who you are, I'll say so."
Xia Ge: "… "
The man in the cloak paused slightly, "If it's inconvenient for you, then we can ask other questions without asking about your identity. Anything is fine."
Xia Ge: "But I just want to know who you are."
Cloaked man: "You want to know who I am, but you don't want to tell me who you are. How can there be such an unfair thing in this world."
"Greedy," she commented.
Xia Ge: "… "
"Of course, if you encounter a question you don't want to answer, you can keep silent." The cloak said humanely.
Can you refuse to answer
"Don't ask about your identity, right?" You might be able to ask something with a side tap, and it's not a loss, Xia Ge said, "Okay, I'll play, who will ask first?"
The man in the cloak took out a gold coin. The front of the gold coin was a machete, and the back was a beautiful feather coat. She said lightly, "You go first on the front, and I will go first on the back."
After he finished speaking, he casually threw the gold coin up.
The gold coin made a beautiful spin in the air, and the man in the cloak reached out and grabbed it, then slowly unfolded it towards Xia Ge.
The glazed light from the glazed lamp outside the window was splendid, reflecting the brilliance of the feather coat on the golden coin on the red bandaged palm of the man in the cloak.
reverse side.
Xia Ge didn't believe it: "Did you cheat?"
Cloaked man: "Then I'll let you. This is the first question you asked."
"I didn't cheat."
After she finished speaking, the word spirit ball that was put aside did not light up and was not activated, indicating that the man in the cloak did not lie.
Xia Ge: "… "
"It's my turn," the man in the cloak asked. "The first question, what are you doing in the underground market?"
Xia Ge glanced at Yan Lingqiu silently: "... I heard that the ancient clothing charm will be auctioned tonight, so I want to come down and have a look."
The speech ball did not light up.
The cloaked man was silent for a moment, "[Soul Soul]?"
Question tone
"This is the second question!" Xia Ge turned against the army, "It's me!"
"Outside the Black Grotto, and after entering the Black Grotto, have you been following me?"
The cloaked man was silent for a while, and just when Xia Ge thought she would not answer, she admitted it.
"Yes."
"Then why are you following..."
The man in the cloak didn't ask her to take advantage of the second question, and suddenly said, "Do you like this mask?"
Hearing this, Xia Ge subconsciously touched the fox mask on his face, and then put his hand down embarrassingly after realizing it.
"… "
This preference question...
"This doesn't count, you just asked Yi Mei if she is a soul-soothing person." Xia Ge was rude, "I want to answer that!"
The cloaked man did not argue with her: "Well, then you say."
"I'll answer your second... The ancient costume charm that was auctioned off is [Soul Soul]."
The word spirit ball below suddenly trembled slightly, and it was about to light up—
Xia Ge said quickly, "But it's not true!"
The Yanling Ball shook twice and calmed down.
A cold sweat broke out in Xia Ge's heart. Although this word can turn a false soul into a real soul, maybe it can directly turn a fake soul into a real soul - it seems to be a lot more convenient for her, but Xia Ge is not stupid, she Understand that there is no free lunch in this world, what you want to gain, you will lose something.
What's more, there is also a warning on the word spirit ball on the system prompt, [The City of Lies is really expensive].
No one knows what the tragic price she will pay if the real soul appears.
Besides, the fake soul below turned into a real soul, so many pairs of eyes, the devil is eyeing, it is not necessarily a good thing for her now.
The man in the cloak made a sound of "um", as if he didn't care much about the question of whether the charm of the clothes auctioned below was soul-soothing.
Xia Ge stabilized, and after answering, it was time for her to ask, "What are you doing with me?"
The man in the cloak seemed to think for a moment, after a while.
"because of you."
Xia Ge listened attentively, "Huh?" What happened to her
The man in the cloak seemed to consider it for a while, then hesitantly said, "It's cute."
"… "
Xia Ge instinctively looked at the Yanling Ball: "Hey, don't talk nonsense..."
It's all strangers, don't lie, embarrassment is also a type of lie.
She will grow 1.7 meters in the future! What if she is 1.5 meters tall in the future when you say this cute thing? Hey!
However.
The word spirit ball on one side did not light up and did not move at all.
Xia Ge looked at the man with the cloak in disbelief: "..."
The word spirit ball was the motherfucking bag, right? ! ! Isn't that a joke? !
Is she really praising her? !
Xia Ge used the system detection to look at it again, and it was the same explanation.
Xia Ge's face under the fox mask was slightly stiff.
The cloaked man was very serious: "I didn't talk nonsense."
Xia Ge took a deep breath: "...Don't say such misleading words."
"Misunderstanding?" The man in the cloak thought for a while, and seemed a little confused, "Who would misunderstand? You? What did you misunderstand?"
Xia Ge: "… "
Are you acting stupid? Are you acting stupid? right? Must be? !
She can't answer that.
Xia Ge: "...let's change the question."
The man in the cloak obeyed: "Mask, do you like it?"
Xia Ge: "… "
Do you have to ask this preference question
Xia Ge: "It's alright... It's alright, so-so..."
The Yanling Ball swayed visibly to the naked eye.
Xia Ge suffocated: "Actually, I like it very much!!"
Yan Lingqiu calmed down.
System: "Pfft."
Xia Ge: "..." Why does such a vague concept also shake? There should be some leeway between people, okay! ? It's a bit wrong to say that you like the gift she gave to someone you don't know very well? !
Hearing this, the cloaked man's low voice seemed to have a little smile, "Yeah."
... you, don't be complacent!
Xia Ge glanced at the folded clothes at his feet, his anger rose from his heart, and his wickedness turned to courage, but his face remained calm, "Is this your clothes?"
The man in the cloak glanced, as if thinking, and nodded after a while.
The speech ball did not light up.
The corner of Xia Ge's mouth evoked a sly smile: "This dress is so small, you must not be that tall!"
If you don't leave some room for her, don't blame her for exposing you!
The cloak shook his head, "No."
She said softly, "It was mine before, now it's yours."
Xia Ge: "???"
The man in the cloak glanced at her again and said actively, "You have been hit by the Paper Man Charm before, and you will have no clothes when you return to your original shape, but it seems that I am overthinking it."
Xia Ge's eyes widened: "Paperman curse?"
The cloak is humane, "a spell that can turn people into pieces of paper."
There is actually such a technique... No, not right.
She knew it right from the start!
So this person was helping her in the first place
Xia Ge subconsciously looked at the red ribbon she tied to the foot of the table, and her face suddenly turned red under the fox mask. If the other party knew everything, wouldn't that be...
The man in the cloak seemed to see what she was thinking, and still looked very serious: "I've dressed you."
She flicked her hands slightly, and was beaten to death by Xia Ge. The red ribbon tied to the foot of the table with a bow that couldn't be freed by a few tremblings undid it by herself, and returned to her lightly, "Clothes."
What she means is that when she was wrapped in red silk when she was a paper figure, she was dressing her...
The spirit ball didn't move.
Xia Ge: "..." It's actually true.
asphyxia.
After the cloak man finished speaking, he suddenly approached, Xia Ge subconsciously wanted to retreat, but was gently pulled on the cloak, Xia Ge lost his green hairband and slumped for a while, and he was too lazy to dye another one. The red hairband has not yet been released. I just found a black head rope and wrapped it around my hair. She stood on tiptoe, reached out and brushed Xia Ge's messy hair,
She pulled her cloak and said softly, "Don't worry, I have no ill intentions."
"It won't hurt you either."
"… "
Xia Ge's movement of retreating slightly stiffened.
If this is a lie, then the lie in front of the Word Spirit Ball will become the truth.
Moreover, the word spirit ball did not light up.
Explain... At least, for now, she's telling the truth.
After the man in the cloak finished speaking, he pulled her hand out of Xia Ge's cloak. Xia Ge's body was stiff and did not move, so she pulled it out.
The fair-skinned left hand was slender and cold, with a scar on the palm. The man in the cloak held hers with his red bandaged hand. He looked at the injury for a long time. When Xia Ge was a little embarrassed and wanted to withdraw his hand, he suddenly be held tightly by the opponent.
Xia Ge: "This..."
The man in the cloak didn't speak, and slowly took out the red ribbon in his hand. The thin red ribbon passed through her tiger's mouth, hiding the scar on the palm under the heavy ribbon, and finally tied a delicate bow on her wrist.
Then put your hand back in place.
This red silk was very obedient under the master's hand, and when the master let go, he immediately rubbed Xia Ge's wrist with great excitement, twisting and twisting, as if he had won some special reward.
Xia Ge's wrist was tickled by it, resisting the desire to scratch, the corners of his mouth twitched: "I don't want this."
The cloaked man's voice was indifferent: "It will protect you."
The word spirit ball did not light up, indicating that the cloaked man was still telling the truth.
Xia Ge: "Without its protection, I'm also very good."
The man in the cloak didn't speak, but Xia Ge felt the questioning from the inside out.
"Wear it." The cloak said, "If you wear it, I'll let you go."
Oh, by the way, she almost forgot if she didn't mention Xia Ge, she still seems to be in a state of being controlled by others
Xia Ge: "I..."
The man in the cloak suddenly said, "It's starting."
The lights outside the window suddenly became more gorgeous, accompanied by a loud scream, "Welcome to the underground auction! I announce! Tonight's carnival, from this moment, officially begins!"
"Ah, started?"
There was a burst of cheers from below, and Xia Ge suddenly couldn't care less about the tangled bow on his hands, pushed aside the cloak and ran down the soft couch barefoot, lying in front of the glazed window, tiptoeing and looking down.
"Underground black market, usually there will be an attractive and good thing at the beginning to raise the interest of customers, and then I will shoot some secondary things..." The man in the cloak didn't mind Xia Ge pushing himself away, just walked slowly to Xia Ge's side , explained to her in a light voice, "So the best things are either at the beginning or at the end."
"Is that so..." Xia Ge opened his eyes wide, only to see a man wearing a colored paper mask and an over-the-top colorful cloak standing on the front platform below, his movements exaggerated and comical, "Then, What will our first merchandise be—"
Xia Ge stretched out his head to continue watching, but was suddenly picked up again.
"Hey—" Xia Ge kicked his legs and shook his feet, "Why did you mention me?!"
Cloaked Man: "Put on your shoes."
Xia Ge: "… "
