Seeing Zhao Changhe's dumbfounded expression, Sisi couldn't help but feel a little proud, and said with a straight face: "What are you looking at? Do you think you've made a killing? Haven't you ever thought that this face might be fake?"
"Uh..." Zhao Changhe's mind raced, and he said solemnly, "Whether it's true or not, even if you are still the ordinary little maid you were before, it won't affect me at all."
"Um?"
"It's still the same teasing, it's just a little more fun now."
Sisi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Hey!"
"You just don't want to compete with Tang Wanzhuang, what's the point of comparing?" Zhao Changhe said, "What I said just now was not perfunctory. There is really nothing between her and me. On the contrary, I fought side by side with you and we were intimate. Why are you comparing with her?"
"What I'm comparing is why I should be teased by you, but she can be so arrogant! She has a high status, right? I have an even higher status, believe it or not!"
Zhao Changhe said: "Xin, which little princess of a foreign race came to steal martial arts from all schools in the Central Plains? She first entered the thief sect to learn the basics of stealing, and then went to the Maitreya sect to learn the art of bewitching people. The steps are quite clear."
Sisi snorted coldly: "You're still addicted to solving cases, right?"
"So you guessed it right?"
"You guessed right." Sisi said with a straight face, "Do you want to take me back to the Demon Suppression Division? I see that your spy jade token is of a high rank."
Zhao Changhe said indifferently: "Do you like the jade pendant? Then I'll give it to you."
Sisi: “…”
Zhao Changhe said lazily, "Don't talk about stealing martial arts. My girlfriend is a rebel. What am I saying? Do you really think I am working for the court just because I have a jade token? Besides, even from the perspective of the court, you and Chili are not from the same clan. Your clothing styles are different. You might even form an alliance to attack Chili and the others from both sides. Why would we arrest you?"
Sisi chuckled: "Then your wishful thinking has failed. Chili and I are allies. What we want is your Middle-earth land."
Zhao Changhe tilted his head to look at her for a while, then shook his head, "No. You have nothing to do with them, and your goal is not the country. If your goal is the country, then you don't have the reason to stay in the underworld and steal things to learn martial arts. You're not an idiot like Murong Fu, who is completely inexplicable."
"Hey...if, I mean if, I really am one of Chi Li's gang, what would you do?"
Zhao Changhe said as a matter of course: "I'll arrest you and train you in private."
Sisi gnashed her teeth and turned to look for bandages: "Let's see who is training whom now!"
Seeing her bells jingling, Zhao Changhe found it quite funny: "Sisi..."
"what!"
"Don't hide it. There might be some misunderstanding between you and me. If you keep lying and let me guess, I'll take it seriously and then you'll blame me for being frivolous. Why don't you be frank and speak clearly about what you want? You're willing to kiss... well, even pass the air... Explain it clearly, maybe I can help you."
Sisi stared at him for a long while, her eyes flickering with hesitation. She didn't wrap the bandage on her hand after all, and just sighed softly: "I have made a solemn oath that I will not tell anyone about what happened there, so you can guess whatever you want, and I will accept whatever you think of me. As long as the Sword Emperor's Mausoleum allows me to participate, I will leave the Central Plains afterwards. You may never see me again in this life, so why bother asking too much?"
Zhao Changhe pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, "You came to Gusu and hid in the Tang family as a maid because you heard that there was a treasure of evil spirits in Gusu while lurking in the White Lotus Temple to steal the skills, and you suspected it was the Tiger Hill Sword Pond, so you ran here, right?"
Sisi sat casually on the bed: "Yeah, didn't you take advantage of me again?"
"So you came here for the evil treasure, not for the Sword Emperor's Mausoleum, right? It was only after you found out about the Sword Emperor's Mausoleum that you felt this was more important." Zhao Changhe said, "The evil treasure is now on the bedside, why don't you take a look at it?"
Sisi then glanced at the beads on the bedside table and hesitated: "You practiced this, it is more important to you. Since I have entered the imperial mausoleum with your help, I will certainly not fight with you for these things to avoid unpleasantness."
"Is this the reason why you don't look at either the dragon bird or the gold foil now?"
Sisi was silent. Zhao Changhe sneered, "Your level of tomb-robbing geomancy and knowledge of the ancient era cannot be learned in a short time in the Daomen. The Daomen at most enriched and improved your knowledge system. I doubt that others know as much as you about the Sword Emperor's Mausoleum. It's not certain who will be the one to rely on. Come on, don't talk about who will rely on whom. Since we are a team to get treasures, if you need something, just take a look. If you want it, take it. If you don't want it, I will keep it. It's as simple as that. This is the default rule in our Zhaocuo."
Sisi looked at him deeply, and finally reached out to take the blood-colored bead, looked at it carefully for a moment, and then probed into her true Qi to sense it.
Then he frowned more and more, and whispered to himself: "It's really strange, where did Maitreya get this thing?"
Zhao Changhe said: "This is probably the real so-called evil spirit treasure. This is what Maitreya was looking for in Jinling. It seems that he has been found. The so-called thing of Fa Yuan may be in Gusu, but he was misled by the mess here... What happened?"
"This is not a natural treasure, but a ritual of ancient magic. I don't know the specific details, but I know it's not for people to cultivate evil spirits... Well, if you carry it all year round, the strong bloody evil spirit contained in it may have a certain effect on your cultivation of evil spirits, but the effect is really not great. On the contrary, it may affect your temperament and make you more violent day by day." Sisi said: "You are not allowed to use this thing. I don't want to see a bad-tempered Zhao Changhe."
"No wonder Tang Wanzhuang said she might be disappointed... Maitreya didn't seem to feel bad after throwing it away." Zhao Changhe asked curiously, "Then what is the main purpose of this thing?"
Sisi thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "It feels like this is a set, not just one. If it were a set, it would be easier to determine its true purpose. It's hard to say now... Anyway, don't use it."
Zhao Changhe asked: "Then why did you want to find the evil spirit treasure in the first place? Is this suitable for you?"
"That doesn't make sense. I originally wanted to find this thing to refine Gu... the strength of bones, flesh and blood, just like you! It's useless to me anyway. It's not something I imagined."
Zhao Changhe looked her up and down for a long while, not knowing whether he had heard the twist or not, he just said, "Alright, leave the stuff there, I'll study it after I recover, if it doesn't work, I'll keep it until I have a complete set."
Sisi looked at him strangely: "You really kept it for a set, but you don't even know how many pills there are in this set, and you don't know what effect it will have after you collect them. Do you have nothing to do after you're full?"
Zhao Changhe held the beads in his hand and tossed them slowly, whispering, "I always feel that it's time for someone to come and answer my questions. I have encountered many points that need to be explained. She can't just watch the show and say nothing, otherwise this director is not very competent."
Sisi was stunned and puzzled.
Zhao Changhe's eyes fell on her red lips again, and he asked carefully: "How about... can we breathe again? Or give me a shoulder massage?"
"Get out!" Sisi kicked him in the waist and turned away angrily.
As expected, she reappeared in her original appearance, and was treated no differently from the original maid.
What kind of birdman is this!
Zhao Changhe watched her beautiful back as she left. Her top was quite short, revealing a hint of whiteness on her waist, which was extremely charming. Zhao Changhe watched her and felt a little jealous for no reason. He felt that she shouldn't be exposed to others, and then he knocked his head, wondering if he was a little abnormal now.
Not to mention that Sisi has nothing to do with himself at all, just the fact that this kind of awareness is not what a modern person should have. There are so many girls showing their slim waists on the streets today, who cares
Zhao Changhe leaned against the head of the bed in a daze, thinking silently that it was very likely that after a period of time, the memories of the present world would become increasingly faint, and the thoughts of this world would completely cover it.
The only person who could still provide him with some connection with the time traveler was the blind woman.
She hadn't appeared in my dreams for a long, long time, as if the connection with the real world was beginning to fade.
Anyway, I was injured and exhausted today, too tired to think too much... In the second half of the day, people were coming and going. With the stunningly beautiful Sisi standing in front of me, I was in a sage state of not wanting to talk much. The conversation was quite perfunctory, and I wondered if Sisi noticed it.
In a daze, Zhao Changhe suddenly had a strong premonition that the blind woman would definitely appear today.
