The scene at the door seemed like he had become a loner overnight, and all the gentleness and intimacy before were all fake.
The feeling of being left without saying a word is extremely bad, but he has experienced it twice.
The little black cat rolled over from the next room, rubbed around Xie Bai's ankle twice, then used the bed as a step, jumped into Xie Bai's arms, and rubbed against his neck with one arch and one arch.
Xie Bai stood coldly for a while, then raised his hand to support the little black cat, turned around and kicked open the half-open door and went straight downstairs.
When the Stork Monster in Canghai Bookstore saw Xie Bai in front of him, he still couldn't come back - he was still a little warm in the early morning, how could he turn his face and freeze into an iceberg again? !
Xie Bai stared at the stork demon without turning his eyes, and said nothing, which almost made the stork demon cry.
"My lord, please don't stare at me like this..." The stork demon finally couldn't help it, and said with a mournful face.
"Have you tampered with the book "Xichuang Suoyu" before giving it to me?" Xie Bai sneered, and slapped the whole book in front of the stork demon.
The stork demon looked blank: "No."
"Stretch out your hand and flatten it out." Xie Bai's voice was low and soft, against the chilly morning air, it almost made the stork monster get goose bumps.
He didn't dare to hesitate, and tremblingly stretched out his hands in front of Xie Bai, with the backs of his hands facing upwards. For a moment, he almost thought that Xie Bai was going to chop off his paws, but after all, this was in the Yaoshi City, full of people. The street is full of capable demon spirits, and I have never seen anyone who would bleed in the demon market.
Xie Bai looked down at the back of his hand carefully, and then said in a low voice, "Separate your fingers and turn them over."
The stork demon obediently did so, turning it over with the palm facing up.
Xie Bai frowned, staring at the three small blood spots on the fingertips of his right ring finger: "Who ordered it for you?"
Only then did the stork demon realize that there were three things on his fingers, and he hurriedly said, "Eh? When did it appear? I don't know, I didn't wake up yesterday morning..."
Xie Bai has seen these three blood spots before, they are left by a spell that controls people's actions, similar to fascination, but the fascinated person looks almost normal, and it is difficult to be noticed.
Seeing this blood spot, he can be sure that Yin Wushu cast a curse on the stork demon, and changed the content of the book with the help of the stork demon.
"Have you read the contents of this book before?" Xie Bai asked.
The stork demon nodded hesitantly: "I have seen..."
"Do you still remember the content?"
The stork demon's expression changed, and he wanted to kneel down to him: "My lord, you won't let me read silently, will you?!"
Xie Bai was speechless: "It's fine to remember the general content."
The stork demon didn't dare to talk too much, and said: "I probably remember it, can you tell me which part it is?"
With a flick of Xie Bai's slender fingers, he turned to that page. He clicked on a section in the middle and said, "After the white tiger disappeared, the man in black had something extra in his hand. Tell me what's behind it. .”
Hearing what he said, the stork demon glanced at the contents of the book: "How did it become like this? Let me see..."
Said that he directly picked up the book and turned two pages, and then rushed to Xie Bai and said: "I don't remember the original sentence, but it has indeed been changed here. I have a little impression of the original content, which means—"
When the stork demon said these two words, he wrinkled his face and looked very forceful: "Speaking of Baihu—"
He said "that's what he said" several times in a row, but he couldn't utter the words behind him, and his face was flushed with anxiety.
Xie Bai frowned: "Have you been locked?"
The stork demon nodded quickly: "I can't say anything, I'm so anxious."
"What about writing?" Xie Bai asked.
The stork demon hastily pulled out something in the shape of an oil-yellow talisman paper from the side, and grabbed a pen, holding the pen trembling for a long time, but the tip of the pen couldn't land on the paper.
He was so anxious that he was about to sweat.
Seeing this, Xie Bai raised his hand to cast out the black mist and turned it into a bandage to wrap his hands tightly. Then he took the pen and paper from Stork Demon's hand, pinched his right ring finger, and squeezed his thumb.
The stork demon howled "Aw-" and looked at his fingers tearfully: "Bleeding..."
A demon spirit like him belongs to the same category as Lou Xianyue—except that he lives longer and has a better memory, he is no different from ordinary people, at least in terms of strength. Fortunately, this demon city can be regarded as a place with a low accident rate in the demon spirit world, and it can be regarded as a sanctuary, so it doesn't matter if the force value is low.
But no matter how low the force value is, he still has an understanding of some spells, especially since he has read a lot of books. So he knew that Xie Bai's move was to help him break the curse, but for this kind of control curse, it doesn't take effect immediately when it is broken, it will take a long time to get rid of it.
