She took the initiative to come forward just to control Di Miao to get information, and it had nothing to do with Lan Xiu.
Even if the Bull Demon had not chosen Lan Xiu at that time, she would have deliberately woken up to attract attention.
When Lan Xiu heard this, she thought Xiang Sheng was deliberately comforting her to make her feel better.
This moved her even more, and she pressed the hairpin into Xiang Sheng's hand without hesitation, saying solemnly, "Even if it was unintentional, it's a fact that you saved my life. You must accept this token of love."
"A token of trust?" Xiang Sheng looked slightly surprised.
"good."
Lan Xiu lowered her voice and said, "I was originally a maid in Silou of Shuangwang City, and this hairpin was given to me by my master.
The Twin Kings City does not treat half-demons harshly. Most of the people in Si Tower are female demons, and they are treated very well.
If there is a chance to escape, the situation will be chaotic and we may not be able to go together. Then you can take this thing and go back. If the master is considerate of our old friendship, you may be able to use this thing to become a maid in Silou and live on."
Lan Xiu kept nagging about arranging a way out for "Si Wu Yue".
Xiang Sheng looked at her, pursed his lips, and said softly, "Since Sister Lan is from Shuangwang City, how could she end up in such a situation today?"
Lan Xiu's expression froze when she heard this, and then she smiled bitterly: "It's come to this point, let's not talk about it anymore."
Seeing that she didn't want to say more, Xiang Sheng stopped asking. She picked up the hairpin and was about to put it away when she inadvertently glanced at the pattern at the end of the hairpin, and her eyes suddenly fixed.
This pattern...
Lan Xiu immediately noticed her abnormality and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiang Sheng suppressed the shock in his heart, pointed at the pattern on the hairpin, and said casually: "Nothing, I just think this pattern is beautiful."
Lan Xiu was startled by her action and quickly slapped her hand away. "This is the unique mark of Twin Kings City. Pin it on quickly and don't let others see it."
Xiang Sheng inserted the hairpin into her hair as instructed, but at the same time her mind was absorbed in the secret realm bead hanging on her chest, sweeping across the altar in the back mountain.
The complex ancient sacrificial patterns immediately come into view.
This sacrificial pattern is quite complex, but if it is slightly simplified, it will be 70% similar to the Seal of the Two Kings.
Is it a coincidence?
Xiang Sheng's eyes flickered. She still remembered that year in the Demon King Valley, before she left the altar and went to the Ghost Gorge, the old Demon King had mentioned that three thousand years ago, her eldest brother's parents disappeared after entering the underworld. No one saw them alive, and no one found their bodies after they died.
Three thousand years ago, the third senior brother crossed the underworld in his previous life and came to Dongzhou. Is it possible that the parents of the eldest brother Wang Tuo also crossed the underworld and came to Xizhou?
Thinking of this, Xiang Sheng's mind was rarely moved.
Since the death of the old demon king, although the eldest brother appeared cheerful on the surface, she knew that he was still trapped in the past, otherwise why would he be unwilling to even transform into a human.
If her guess is true, then her eldest brother's knot in his heart might be easily resolved.
This matter must be investigated thoroughly.
But before that, she still had a guess that needed to be verified, and only after Di Miao came back and verified the matter could she decide on the next course of action.
Having made up his mind, Xiang Sheng stopped thinking about it and closed his eyes to heal his wounds.
At the same time, Di Miao had arrived outside the banquet hall.
"Come in."
When he heard his father's message, he instinctively became nervous, immediately lowered his head, walked quickly into the door, and bowed his head.
"My son greets his father and the distinguished guest!"
The short, fat old man sitting at the head of the table narrowed his triangular eyes and replied calmly, "Get up."
Di Miao responded respectfully, got up, and looked at his father anxiously.
The Rat King didn't look at Di Miao any more, but turned to look at the seat to his right, a smile blooming on his face: "Dear guest, my son has arrived, please feel free to ask any questions."
At the banquet table on the right, a cultivator in green robes, whose face was blurred, put down his wine glass upon hearing this. He smiled faintly and asked directly, "Friend Di Miao, I heard that you picked up a pure-blooded human from outside a few days ago?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Di Miao immediately sensed that the divine consciousness in his sea of consciousness was triggered.
The master was right!
His heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm on the surface, nodding repeatedly and saying, "It is true, but the creature we found was not a pure-blooded human, but a half-demon who had strayed into the Tidal Eye."
"Half-demon?"
The young monk's smile remained unchanged, but his tone was a little lighter, "Are you sure?"
"Of course I'm sure. I've checked it myself."
Di Miao sighed, "If it weren't for this, I would have sent the pure-blooded human here to serve the distinguished guest. Why would I have hidden it and been scolded by my father?"
"Do you still remember what happened? Were there any fragments of the spirit boat around?"
Di Miao was bewildered. "Spiritual boat fragments, what are those? When I picked up that half-demon, there was nothing around, nothing at all."
This sentence was not included in the divine consciousness prompt, he really didn't know.
