Chapter 8
Chapter 8
You got the wrong person.
Shen Mingyuan said this subconsciously, as if trying to reject something.
He is still not sure what causes Niesin's unusual behaviors, but his intuition tells him that it is safest to separate the relationship with the original owner of this body as much as possible.
"Oh," Nie Xin showed a clear look, "Master thinks I'm looking for someone?"
If he hadn't been familiar with the original plot, he would have reason to suspect that Nie Xin was either looking for someone or playing a hooligan.
"It's not looking for someone, what is it?" Shen Mingyuan pursed his lips, took the opportunity to raise a question in his heart, and looked into the person's eyes with a little anxiety.
Nie Xin didn't answer in a hurry. He looked down at the hand that was hiding behind him and behind his back. His eyes were heavy, and he grabbed the person's shoulder instead, "Don't move."
Shen Mingyuan really didn't move any more, he didn't want to misunderstand his desire to keep a distance as being disgusted with others, so that hand grasped his shoulder as if touching his bone, followed the bone line all the way down, and penetrated through his sleeve. It was strangely warm, and there were thin and dense spiritual power falling on the outer edge of the arm.
It doesn't hurt, just a slight itching, like the feeling when a wound heals and new flesh begins to grow.
He couldn't help but look down, and saw a powder-like white light emanating from under Niesin's palm, piercing through the fabric and skin, like countless tiny needles, piercing the skin with curved lines like branches and leaves.
Then the palm came to the forearm, the wrist bone, and the back of the hand. The white light gradually dimmed, and finally its original appearance could be seen clearly, with some metallic luster, and its shape looked like the elbow armor worn by soldiers.
When Nie Xin finally stopped, the last lines and colors disappeared. Shen Mingyuan rolled up his sleeves and looked again and again. There was no trace left on his arm, but the itchy feeling was still there, wanting to scratch.
As soon as he rubbed his arm, his movement was stopped.
Nie Xin looked at him, "This is a gold-type spiritual technique, and your body will reject it spontaneously, but you are a wind-type, a spiritual orifice that can contain everything, so don't worry too much. Don't touch it for now, wait for an hour or two It will be fine."
Shen Mingyuan was a little confused, he shook his arms and asked him, "Why did you give me this?"
Couldn't it be that the positioning and tracking techniques that would be used during the blackening period were taken out in advance, right?It didn't look like he had a big change in temperament, just a little weird.
"Shield spells." Nie Xin explained concisely, "Don't you want to become more powerful and have the ability to protect yourself? This spell can be used as a shield, try it?"
Shen Mingyuan was really surprised. He stared at Nie Xin for a while, but he didn't see any trace of lying or tricks, so he believed it, "How do you try?"
He thought about it carefully, and insisted that Nie Xin seemed to be a different person, it should be his eyes, and his attitude...too friendly, too good to be normal.
Nie Xin is not a person who is good at lying and scheming. After being blackened, he just became more ruthless and stronger. In the original book, because he was too upright, he almost killed himself several times.
Unable to think of an answer, he temporarily concentrated his energy on his hands and tried the gold-type shield technique on his left arm.
The method was relatively simple and rough. Nie Xin stabbed with his sword, but he blocked it with his arm.
Both of them were still at Shen's house, if Nie Xin wanted to plot against him, he could do it directly, there was no need for such a trick, Shen Mingyuan didn't question him much, and didn't ask him to replace the wooden sword.
There is still some nervousness, just like performing darts with an apple on your head, knowing that nothing will happen is one thing, but visual effects and nervousness are another.
Hearing the sound of 'dang', Shen Mingyuan's entire left arm trembled, and a slight warmth surfaced on his skin. The tip of Nie Xin's sword hung a centimeter in front of his arm, covered by a layer of light that was suspended on the surface of the arm, glowing with a faint metallic white light. shield blocked.
Like a layer of armor that's only there to be seen when it's doing its job.
Cool enough!
Shen Mingyuan's eyes lit up with joy, he had no reason not to like such things.
The corner of Nie Xin's mouth curled up, but the movement didn't stop there. Immediately afterwards, he stabbed with the second and third swords, attacking from different angles, more swiftly.
Shen Mingyuan was only stunned for a moment at first, but soon understood, and took over his move without saying a word.
He relied more on instinct, his body was not his after all, and he didn't have much actual combat experience, so he soon felt strenuous, and his entire left arm was numb and swollen from the shock.Seeing that Nie Xin had become addicted, he was so angry that he pulled out the sword from his waist, and directly fought sword to sword.
It looked like a dry fight, but actually secretly used a little of the newly practiced wind spells to hinder and interfere with Niesin's attack direction and strength with invisible air currents.
Nie Xin was testing his physical skills and actual combat reaction ability, just like he was testing his cultivation level last night while taking advantage of spiritual healing.
With the status of a sparring partner, it becomes something that can be done in an open and honest manner to test the strengths of all aspects.
Just as coldness oozes from Shen Mingyuan's forehead, and his movements tend to slow down, Nie Xin stops his hands, and the blade hangs not far from Shen Mingyuan's throat, looking dangerous and measured.
As soon as the two of them stopped moving, the broken leaves and flowers that had been affected just now slowly fell down around them.
When he fought the move just now, his nerves were too tense, and he couldn't notice anything else. As soon as he stopped, he noticed that the aura around Nie Xin was not right.
No, if you think about it carefully, Nie Xin seems to change every day.It's like... In a place he couldn't see, Nie Xin experienced unknown things day after day, leaving traces in every detail.
The way you look at him, the degree of muscle relaxation when standing in front of him, the tone of voice, the distance between you and him when you walk or stand together, etc.If there is anything, it seems to be a coincidence, which can be ignored, but after careful investigation, there are countless details.
From far to near, it changes quietly without any basis, which makes people easily think of a predator who walks lightly and waits for an opportunity.
"I'm tired, let's go here first."
Shen Mingyuan felt that if he continued to look at each other like this, his heartbeat, which was accelerated due to nervousness, might not be able to slow down, so he turned around and left without hesitation.
Nie Xin spoke behind him, "The spell on your arm is not permanent. After reaching a certain level, the gold-type spiritual power I left on it will be exhausted, and the spell will naturally become invalid. If Young Master Shen wants to continue using it, you can Come to me at any time to continue your spells."
He heard the meaning of long-term contact in the words, did not turn around, only tilted his head slightly, showing a slightly raised corner of his mouth, and said politely, "Thank you, I got it."
After walking a few steps, I felt a burst of heart palpitations, and the strong sense of ominousness almost turned into substance.
Shen Mingyuan quickly turned around a corner, and then stopped abruptly, leaning against the decorative low wall, resting his forehead and closing his eyes.When I left the villa a few days ago, I looked back at the small courtyard and suddenly came to my mind, and the feeling of forgetting something important became more and more vivid.
The sense of uneasiness was so strong that it hurt his head, and he was depressed when a system voice sounded in his head.
Mantou: Ding, host, this is the golden finger [Sixth Sense of Crisis] rewarded to you. When someone has the intention to kill the host, it will remind the host~
Shen Mingyuan rubbed his temples and frowned.
I think you have misunderstood the three words "Gold Finger".
Mantou: The host should not be discouraged, as the number of survival days of the host increases, there is still room for upgrades in the golden finger, so stay tuned~
After leaving these two sentences, the system fell silent again, no matter how much Shen Mingyuan asked about the functions of the upgraded version, he would not answer.
However, with this explanation, the terrible feeling just now made sense.
Someone had murderous intentions towards him, Shen Mingyuan's first reaction was Nie Xin, after all he was by his side, he was the first protagonist he had met so far, and there were so many doubts about him.
After thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was more likely to be Qin Huanzhi.
He didn't waste a moment, and after a short rest, he soared into the air, skimmed several eaves at low altitude, and flew towards the Shen family's hidden machine pavilion.
The Cang Ji Pavilion stores a series of treasures of the Shen family's town houses, as well as an important place for looking into the sky.
The power of the Skypeeping Mirror is that it can spy on the fortunes of the sky, and even turn the world around and change fate against the sky. It was with the help of one of the male protagonists that he was able to be reborn.
In order to protect the real sky-peeping mirror, the Shen family concealed it from the outside world and built a small sky-peeping mirror. The appearance is the same as the real sky-peeping mirror, but the function is far behind.
The small peeping sky mirror, whose real name is Dongtian mirror, Shen Mingyuan went to the hidden machine pavilion just to borrow it.
Fortunately, he was Shen Mingyuan at this time, and it was very easy to look at it with the help of ordinary treasures without taking out the hidden mechanism pavilion, just need to inform the elder brother afterwards.
There are many traps in the hidden machine pavilion, the attic is as high as nine floors, it looks like a very mysterious place that cannot be entered randomly.It's just that no matter how strict it is, it's not used to guard against the real family members, and no one thought of guarding against Shen Er Shao who was spoiled as a fool since he was a child.
He went all the way unimpeded, and he came directly to the top floor of the Cangji Pavilion, and came to the little peeping mirror.
After a little trial, the magic mirror was successfully opened, and a layer of water ripples suddenly appeared on the black mirror surface, and then the ink color faded, and the entire mirror surface brightened, and the color changed, giving off a faint brilliance.
Shen Mingyuan took a closer look, and saw the scene of his own residence emerging above.
Yes, the small peeping mirror, also known as the sky mirror, is actually similar in function to modern satellite monitoring, and can show the scene of a certain place, and even what happened in this place not long ago.
It’s just that there are many restrictions. The location displayed must be familiar and known to the user. If you want to see the past scene, you can’t go back too long. You can see it three days ago at most. This is the limit.
As the male lead who was reborn, if he wanted to find out the whereabouts of Nie Xin who failed in the assassination, he would sooner or later find out his residence.
But now, according to the plot progress of the original book, there should be some time before the reborn person finds the other mansion. According to Shen Mingyuan's calculation, even if the reborn person wants to find himself and Shen's house all the way, it will take ten days.
After all, it was ancient times, and everyone knew spells, so it was too easy to hide many things.
Shen Mingyuan looked at it, and the image in the mirror became more and more blurred, as if it was covered with a thick layer of fog, making it impossible to see clearly.
What he was about to see was the situation near the villa two days ago, and the fog thickened at this time.
Someone set up an enchantment, which hindered the magic of Dongtian Mirror.
