Chapter 115 Show Uncle Zhong
Let her think about how to make this sound reasonable.
"Friend Zhong, I am actually..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhong Hanshang.
"If it's still the same story as your parents, please think through the details first.
Although I have never left the sect to gain experience, I am not stupid."
Oops! I've been discovered!
After meeting Gao Huohuo last time, Zhong Hanshang went back and thought about it carefully, and found several unreasonable things.
How did she control these two semi-artifacts when she was so young?
She also wanted to give him the artifact, which was clearly a test. The two semi-artifacts had already been contracted with her.
He thought that the unusual movement he had discovered before was because Gao Huohuo had put on the invisibility talisman.
After hearing what Zhong Hanshang said, Gao Huohuo knew that the lie she had told last time had been discovered.
I thought he was an upright man and I could move him by making up some pitiful stories, but I didn't expect that he would use his brain when he went out.
"Friend Zhong, I was wrong before. That was the first time I met you. I didn't know you well, so I wanted to test you.
Later, when I got along with you, I found that you are indeed as the legend says, you are simply the light of righteousness.
But when I wanted to find you to explain, I found that I couldn’t find you at all.”
First time meeting him? I'm afraid this is another lie.
Seeing that his expression did not change, Gao Huohuo hurriedly took out a magical power from the storage ring and handed it to him.
“Fellow Daoist Zhong, with this item, it will be much more convenient to communicate with you in the future.
This was made by my fourth senior brother, so I'm giving it to you for free as an apology.
This item is called a magical power, and it's much more useful than a sound transmission talisman. I've already added my contact information."
After saying that, Gao Huohuo took out his magical powers and demonstrated them to him.
Zhong Hanshang took a look and found that it was indeed a good thing.
However, after Gao Huohuo finished his demonstration, Zhong Hanshang put the things away and continued to ask:
"Fellow Daoist Gao, now that we've finished introducing our magical powers, isn't it time to continue explaining what happened today?"
This guy is really not easy to fool. If he were someone like Ma Jian, he would have been obsessed with supernatural powers long ago.
Knowing that it was too late for her to make up a story now, Gao Huohuo could only tell the truth and took him over.
Otherwise, if he finds out after they lie to him again, it will affect their chance to get the treasure.
However, he took the opportunity to use the Seven-Step Lock on him, so that if he wanted to steal the treasure, he would be trapped there.
Wait until Su Ruoyun takes the treasure, then let him go.
Zhong Hanshang pursed his lips and smiled, pretending not to notice Gao Huohuo's little action, and followed her to Su Ruoyun.
In order to prevent Su Ruoyun from misunderstanding, Gao Huohuo hurriedly explained it to her using his magical powers.
When the two of them saw Su Ruoyun, she just nodded at Zhong Hanshang.
"Do you believe it now? I didn't lie to you this time. Everything I said is true."
Zhong Hanshang nodded, turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by the two men in unison.
"Don't leave!"
Gao Huohuo stepped forward and said, "Now that you know our secret, you can't go out. Otherwise, what if you attract other people?"
Su Ruoyun nodded in agreement. If Gao Huohuo hadn't guaranteed her, she wouldn't have let anyone come.
"What if someone outside comes looking for me?"
Gao Huohuo blurted out, "Are you referring to that Saint? Don't worry, she can't get here with her strength."
"Friend Su, wait for me here. I'll be back soon."
After Gao Huohuo finished speaking, she turned and walked out, forgetting that Zhong Hanshang was still within seven steps of her.
He pulled Zhong Hanshang out directly and almost made him fall to the ground.
Su Ruoyun saw that Gao Huohuo's magic was indeed powerful and could actually trap Zhong Hanshang, who was in the Nascent Soul stage.
"Fellow Daoist Gao, what have you done to me again?
No wonder I couldn’t control my body falling down when we first met.
I thought it was caused by a change in the colorful ball of light at the bottom of the river."
Gao Huohuo smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhong, this is a spell I created myself - the Seven-Step Lock. It can lock people within a seven-step range of me."
Zhong Hanshang tried it out of disbelief, but he couldn't break free.
"When will you untie me?"
"Once we get the Hunyuan Pearl, we will naturally unlock it for you. Don't worry, I know you and that Saint are a couple, so I won't bother you."
Hearing this, the playful smile on Zhong Hanshang's face a second ago turned into anger.
He said somewhat unhappily, "I have nothing to do with the Saint, don't talk nonsense."
Okay, okay, if you say it’s okay, then it’s okay. Anyway, it has nothing to do with her Gao Huohuo.
When they reached a fork in the road, Gao Huohuo first set up a barrier inside, and then asked Xiao Lingzi to set up an illusion outside.
Anyone who comes here will find that there is no road and cannot get through.
Zhong Hanshang's eyes widened in surprise, and he blurted out, "You can actually set up illusions?"
"I don't know this skill, but my son Xiao Lingzi is proficient in it."
Gao Huohuo looked calm and responded slowly.
When Zhong Hanshang heard this, the shock on his face became even stronger. He opened his mouth slightly and asked in disbelief:
"How old are you? How come you already have a son?"
Gao Huohuo saw his expression, but he was not annoyed. Instead, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, clapped his hands lightly, and called out:
"Xiao Lingzi, come out and show yourself to Uncle Zhong."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black stone flashed out from the side.
Gao Huohuo introduced with a smile: "Hey, this is my son Xiao Lingzi. He also has a younger brother Xiao Yunzi, but his brother is not with me at the moment."
Seeing that Gao Huohuo had no intention of hiding anything from him, he told him everything honestly.
The annoyance in Zhong Hanshang's heart caused by being deceived by her disappeared in an instant.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, with a bit of inquiry in his eyes, and asked softly:
"Do you really trust me so much? Aren't you afraid that I might harm you?"
Gao Huohuo thought to herself: She wished he would attack her right now. As long as he wanted to kill her, she could easily control him and make him surrender.
However, she showed no emotion on her face, her eyes were wide open and full of sincerity.
The look he gave Zhong Hanshang was sincere and passionate, without a trace of falsehood to be seen.
"Fellow Daoist Zhong, I know you are a trustworthy person with a righteous character, and you would not do such mean things."
Gao Huohuo spoke slowly and sincerely.
In fact, she knew very well that the foundation of this trust was that Zhong Hanshang was now under her control.
Otherwise, how could she dare to bring him here rashly?
However, when Gao Huohuo's words reached Zhong Hanshang's ears, he interpreted them with a different meaning.
After Gao Huohuo finished setting up the illusion, the two returned to Su Ruoyun.
When he had nothing to do, Gao Huohuo asked the two about Luoxia City.
"Huohuo, how do you know that city is called Luoxia City? I don't think I told you!"
Hearing Su Ruoyun's question, Gao Huohuo lied to her for no reason.
"I saw some records about this city on that street. Does Fellow Daoist Su know about Luoxia City?"
