Super Species Player

Chapter 370 "Game of the Ancestral God" Lies before Dawn

Is it possible that Yuan Xi's son Xiao Zhuo is one of the four Holy Envoys?

The deeper level of this question is to verify: In addition to the three Holy Envoys that Jiang Qian has seen, Hei Ye Lang Jun, Zhi Mo, and Sha Jin, whether the identity of the Holy Envoy he has not yet seen corresponds to Xiao Zhuo.

Unlike Ayiguli, Jiang Qian has a lasting and effective memory of the appearance and behavior characteristics of the people he has seen.

When people grow up, their appearance and behavior will definitely change, but some fundamental and iconic characteristics are difficult to erase from a person's life unless they are deliberately done. The previous fight with the three Holy Envoys gave Jiang Qian 90% confidence to make an accurate exclusion.

As for Ayiguli's so-called "face blindness", Jiang Qian privately thought that it should not be taken too seriously.

Sure enough, Ayiguli immediately showed an expression of "I understand you" when she heard the words and said: "You might as well ask me directly if that child is the Water Ghost Holy Envoy you haven't seen."

Jiang Qian smiled but said nothing.

Ayiguli continued: "You have personally fought three of the four holy envoys. Among the three, only the holy envoy of the moth has the habit of disguising himself. But you also saw that the direction of his disguise is not to hide his true facial features, but only to show his personality. So I am not surprised that you excluded the three of them."

"But unfortunately, I don't think the only 'water ghost' you haven't met is similar to him. At least with my eyesight, I can't see any similarities between him and the child."

"Well..." Jiang Qian was silent.

At present, except for the new leader, Yuan Xi and his mother have the highest degree of participation in this causal mirror. It can be said that the whole incident revolves around these three people. Logically speaking, the three of them are most likely to "carry identities".

The new leader and Yuan Xi are adults, and they have successively exposed their strength. If one of the two of them is a holy envoy or a saint, it should have been identified by Ayiguli long ago.

Excluding the situation where Ayiguli refuses to cooperate, these two people can basically be ruled out.

If Xiao Zhuo is not a vice chess player, then who else is there?

Or maybe the real "sub-chess" has not yet appeared?

Could it be...

A person suddenly flashed through Jiang Qian's mind, a person whose identity was confusing from beginning to end.

"Do you remember how you were attacked just now?" Jiang Qian looked at Ayiguli again and asked her about the details of the attack.

Ayiguli's eyes fell on the pitcher plant prop, which was a consumable prop. Although it only had one chance to be used, its attack effect still made Ayiguli feel scared.

She murmured and recalled: "I followed your instructions and followed the child carefully. What was his name? Xiao Zhuo, right... He was very flexible and moved very quickly in the woods. No one except me could find his trace. However..."

"However?"

"I suddenly smelled a strange fragrance..."

Ayiguli swallowed her saliva and her eyes lit up when she said this:

"It was a tempting smell. Although I would not interrupt important actions because of a smell, that smell really made me unable to stop! Yes, I think I was bewitched by this prop."

As she said this, she sighed softly and her eyes became a little hateful.

"Well, that's understandable," Jiang Qian said immediately, "some props will have a restraint on certain species, I don't think you can be blamed for that."

Ayiguli didn't appreciate it, and her tone was a bit shady: "Hmph, stop comforting me, I guess you must be doubting now, is this useless guy in front of you really the official wanted criminal?"

"Oh? Is this your objective evaluation of yourself?"

"You!" Ayiguli gritted her teeth, "Do you think this is what I want? I..."

Jiang Qian looked at Ayiguli, but she refused to continue.

He noticed that this kind of "silence" was by no means speechless or coy, but a timely termination. It seemed that if she said one more word, it would cause irreversible consequences.

Jiang Qian eased his expression: "Just a joke, I didn't think so, let's get back to business."

The more times like this, the more we should avoid unnecessary troubles.

He brought the topic back on track:

"Based on some of the facts observed so far, it can be confirmed that this causal mirror image is derived from the grievances between Yuan Xi and his mother and the village leader. Moreover, the number and quality of super-species props carried by Yuan Xi and his mother are beyond the level that a low-level license holder should have. These deviations all point to a mysterious person who has not yet appeared but frequently appears in everyone's language."

"That person!" Ayiguli said immediately.

In fact, it is not difficult to realize this. After Jiang Qian explained to her what he saw, Ayiguli reacted.

"Yes!" Jiang Qian nodded approvingly.

Ayiguli's eyes lit up slightly, as if she found a little comfort from the negative emotions just now: "What should we do next?"

Even if these deviations are read, it is actually difficult for Jiang Qian and Ayiguli, the two "outsiders", to change the facts that have already happened. After all, what they can do is limited. According to Jiang Qian's original idea, Ayiguli can even foresee Jiang Qian's answer, which is nothing more than: "wait and see" or "wait and see".

But this time she guessed wrong.

"I want to talk to Yuan Xi."

Jiang Qian looked directly into Ayiguli's eyes, watching her expression gradually change from calm to surprise.

Added: "I don't want to interfere with any results. I want to know the whole story, preferably from her perspective."

"Why?" Ayiguli was even more puzzled. This matter sounded like it had nothing to do with their purpose.

"Curiosity." Jiang Qian said calmly.

Ayiguli was silent.

This was equivalent to no answer, but as a sub-chess who obeyed orders, she could not find a basis for rebuttal.

There was no way. Even if they did nothing, they had to endure this long wait.

"Let's go."

The two of them briefly checked the surrounding situation. Not far from where Ayiguli was hit, they found the body of an adult man. It seemed that he had also encountered an unexpected attack and died.

The two did not continue to explore, but set off for the village.

It was late at night.

Most of the people living in this village had fallen asleep, and only the thatched cottage of the leader's house was lit.

At the door, the guards were guarding closely and were highly alert.

Jiang Qian and Ayiguli approached quietly. With their methods, it was not easy for ordinary people to notice.

"Is Yuan Xi imprisoned here?" Ayiguli couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"No."

"Then why..."

"Shh."

Jiang Qian made a gesture, and Ayiguli shut up tactfully.

She quietly watched Jiang Qian's profile in the moonlight, and looked at his attentive expression, and an inexplicable dependence rose in her heart.

However, once this feeling appeared, she was immediately aware of it and extinguished it without hesitation!

She closed her eyes and retracted her gaze.

In the leader's room, there was an intermittent conversation:

"What? No one came back?!" This was the leader's voice, full of anger.

"Yes... the people who went out to chase the child, there is no news so far..." Jiang Qian remembered this voice, which came from a person like the captain of the personal guard beside the leader, similar to the leader's "senior follower".

Then, there was a sigh: "I know... I'll find it again!"

"Yes..."

The conversation was brief, but the message conveyed was intriguing.

"That child seems to be quite difficult to deal with." After a while, Jiang Qian said to Ayiguli.

"He has props on him. It's strange that ordinary people can get anything good if they approach him!"

"Yes, so we have to move quickly, otherwise it will be too late."

Ayiguli said "hmm" and followed Jiang Qian's movements.

Although she was not sure what Jiang Qian meant by "too late"...

The two bypassed the leader's house and found Yuan Xi, who was dying, in an abandoned empty thatched house.

Outside the door, the leader's confidants were guarding, and not even an animal could get close.

Inside the door, Yuan Xi was lying in the haystack. She looked pale and mournful, with her original long hair scattered on both sides of her body. She looked at the roof of the shed with empty eyes, as if looking further away. The blood that was gradually stained on her body made her look shockingly beautiful.

In the silent darkness, Jiang Qian and Ayiguli stood side by side in silence for a long time.

Just when Ayiguli suspected that Jiang Qian was about to give up speaking, Jiang Qian quietly took off the invisible armor and threw it at the shed above his head.

One of the functions of the invisible armor is to be activated from inside the building, hiding all traces and clues of what happened inside.

In this way, people outside will not notice their invasion.

And after this "throw", Yuan Xi finally noticed the existence of the two of them.

She raised her eyelids slightly, her eyelashes fluttering, facing the two strangers she met for the first time, but she did not show much surprise.

"Sorry to bother you." Jiang Qian said.

A concise opening remark once again attracted Yuan Xi's attention.

Her eyes slowly focused on the two people, with hesitation, vigilance, and even sarcasm in her eyes.

In the end, these emotions condensed into a sneer, floating on her sad face.

"You should be able to see that we are not from the village. We are helpless to show up here." Jiang Qian began to look for a suitable topic to start with. "If we must reveal our identities, then we can only say that we have some intersections with the child's father."

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Xi's pupils trembled significantly. She pursed her lips, as if trying to pretend to be "indifferent".

But this reaction, which was intended to cover up, was useless to both Jiang Qian and Ayiguli.

Ayiguli even clapped her hands in her heart: What kind of bastard idea is this? How can you poke someone's soft spot when you are down and out!

But on second thought, what's the point of a little deception? Perhaps not seeing Brother Jiang "torturing" the beauty seems to be compassionate...

Ayiguli thought she knew very well what kind of character Jiang Qian was, and from the beginning she accompanied him with the mentality of watching a good show.

"I know you are confused as to why we are here at this time. I'm sorry I can't tell you, but I will do everything I can to help you."

Jiang Qian approached slowly and squatted down to make sure Yuan Xi could see his face and expression clearly, showing his sincerity.

He looked at the injured mother with a faint compassionate look, and there was no hypocrisy in him.

"No need."

Yuan Xi finally spoke, but what he said was a refusal.

But Jiang Qian didn't care, instead he understood Yuan Xi's refusal: "Well, you really don't need it, but it doesn't mean your son doesn't need it either."

Yuan Xi was startled when he heard this, and his eyebrows slightly frowned.

Jiang Qian continued: "Do you really think your son Xiao Zhuo can escape the pursuit of the village?"

There is no answer to this question, because this is the part that Yuan Xi is most worried about!

"I know that your son must be carrying a treasure given by 'that person', and you also firmly believe that he can escape for a while, otherwise you would not risk your life and push him away resolutely. But you Ignored a little bit.”

Jiang Qian looked at Yuan Xi and expressed her most pressing concerns in a firm tone:

"You have overlooked one thing. He is your son. Wherever you are, he will appear. Just like what happened tonight...he can't escape."

"No..." Yuan Xi finally let go. Jiang Qian expressed her deepest worries.

It’s heartbreaking... Ayiguli was silent on the surface, but sighed inwardly.

"I said I would help you, you can trust me."

Jiang Qian's tone was firm and gentle, and his expression, demeanor and even voice conveyed convincing energy:

"As long as you give me a reason to take action. You know, people like us have amazing abilities."

Yuan Xi's sad face flashed with hesitation, but more of it was hope! Her mentality had collapsed not long ago, and now she was like a desperado grasping at straws, willing to go through fire and water even if there was a glimmer of hope.

"You... know him?"

Yuan Xi was asking. She was staring at Jiang Qian, hoping to get the answer she was looking forward to from him!

Ayiguli suddenly realized when she saw this: It turned out that Yuan Xi regarded them as her man's companions! Being a member of the superspecies player and a powerful helper gave her hope of influencing the current situation...

To be precise, Jiang Qian has been creating such an "illusion" in his words.

Yuan Xi misunderstood that they were friends of "that person", so she subconsciously grabbed at this life-saving straw. As soon as it was verified, she would reveal everything Jiang Qian wanted to know!

And Jiang Qian did it right again. He did not give a direct answer, but he got the answer:

"Based on our friendship, we won't just sit idly by and ignore his child."

…

The wind in Yinshi is slightly cold.

Someone came from the forest, dragging the heavy bones and wading over the edge of the stockade.

The livestock under the nearby thatched house started to stir strangely, and the barking of dogs broke through the quiet night!

Then, the barks seemed to be contagious, spreading rapidly in the village, rising one after another, and gradually became louder and louder.

Many people were awakened from their sleep, peering through the window lattice of their homes, only to see a vague figure coming step by step from the vague darkness...
