"Go wake Mingzhen up, in that room."
The slender finger pointed.
“Woof woof woof!”
Mingxin was awakened by the sound of dogs barking and claws scratching at the door.
He opened his eyes drowsily, put on his clothes and boots, yawned, scooped a bucket of cold water from the wooden barrel and poured it into the washbasin. The cold water splashed on his face, which stimulated him and woke him up from his sleep.
She picked up a wooden comb and combed her long hair a few times, then casually put it up and opened the door while tidying it up.
As soon as the door opened, a black dog with a big belly rushed in, wagging its tail, circled around him, hit his leg with its tail, and ran downstairs to the inn.
Luo Zheyu was sitting at a round wooden table in the lobby of the inn, surrounded by a circle of people, both men and women.
All the men had thick beards and thick faces, and were tall and strong with muscles. But at this moment, they looked gentle and considerate. They sat at the table with their legs together, their hands folded on their abdomen, standing upright.
He raised his head slightly, looking at Luo Zheyu with a look of anticipation and hope, and opened his eyes wide.
The women, on the other hand, sat with their legs wide open, their bodies leaning forward, their arms resting on their thighs, looking around with an irritated and impatient look on their faces, and occasionally glancing at Luo Zheyu.
There was also some expectation deep in his eyes.
The little zombie Mumu sat blankly on the small stool next to Luo Zheyu, with his hands neatly placed on his knees, his sharp black nails clearly visible.
This was the scene Ming Xin saw when he went downstairs.
"What happened?"
He asked.
This group of people obviously have something very important to do.
Their expressions told Ming Xin this message.
"Repeat what happened again." Luo Zheyu said to a big man.
"Okay, benefactor."
A rough yet deliberately gentle voice came out of the big man's mouth.
The big man lowered his head and looked up at Luo Zheyu, his bearded face full of shyness.
Mingxin's face twitched for unknown reasons.
The big man pursed his lips slightly and said, "After being rescued from the bandits by the benefactor yesterday, we women used the money he kindly gave us to hire a carriage and prepared to ride it back home."
He paused here.
Ming Xin had a strange expression on his face as he looked up and down at the big man who was speaking.
While taking a sip of the mouthwash prepared by the shopkeeper.
"Unexpectedly, not long after leaving the town, I heard the sound of fighting coming from the front..."
The five women who were crammed together in the carriage were frightened and stopped the driver, asking him to go and check.
The driver felt a little uneasy, so he went forward to look around like a thief, but he came back after a while and said that there were six burly men in front of him, fighting with weapons.
After a few people discussed it, they decided to hide aside and wait for a while, and then drive the car after those people finished fighting and dispersed.
The carriage was pulled under a big tree, and several people waited in the shade of the tree to enjoy the coolness. Unexpectedly, before they knew it, everyone fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already the next morning and the sun had not yet risen.
"When I woke up, I saw several burly men lying beside me, with all kinds of weapons spread out on the ground. I shouted without thinking..."
The big man said shyly.
"I never expected that the voice I made was actually that of a man."
"Your rough and ugly scream woke us all up." Another big man with thick eyebrows sitting next to them suddenly interrupted and joked.
"Oh, that's terrible! I woke up surrounded by men. I was so scared!"
A slightly thin man with a mustache on his face was holding hands with a big man with thick eyebrows. He had a playful smile on his face and a shrill voice.
Each of them clearly behaves like a little girl.
The sense of disobedience is so strong that it makes people feel deeply uncomfortable.
Mingzhen looked at them expressionlessly, and swallowed the mouthwash in his mouth without knowing when.
Luo Zheyu seemed not to notice this and very seriously held the cup of mouthwash and placed it on the little zombie's paw.
They can tolerate it, but some people can't.
“Bang!”
"Aren't you all fucking disgusting?" One of the women sitting at the round table opposite the big men suddenly slammed the table and stood up.
Her voice, which was originally delicate and soft, now spoke with a rough tone and yelled at the top of her lungs, causing her voice to break.
"oops……"
"She is so fierce. I can actually make such a fierce expression."
"It's so scary..."
"My benefactor, how could she be so cruel to others..."
The gruff voice shrieked in a delicate tone.
Several big men shrank their necks, pinched one hand with their little finger slightly raised, and put it in front of their lips, looking at the woman opposite with timid faces.
Luo Zheyu turned sideways and touched the black dog's head and heard nothing.
The black dog squatted on the ground, with his mouth open, eyes slightly squinted, and a look of contentment on his face.
He didn't care at all about what these humans were doing.
"Shut up!"
The woman was furious, her thin eyebrows raised high and her face full of ferocity.
"Second brother!" the woman next to her shouted, stretching out her hand and patting her back hard.
"Don't be angry!"
The woman staggered after being hit, and felt her internal organs shaking. She couldn't help coughing twice.
He turned around and said angrily: "Do you want to kill me?"
…………
"Their bodies have become ours, and our bodies have become theirs. That's how it is. If there is no other way, I would never dare to come back to trouble you again..."
The bearded man sighed sadly.
The eyes are dim, the movements are gentle...it's not beautiful.
Their bodies were swapped, the five women and the coachman, and the six strong men who were fighting each other, their souls and bodies exchanged.
Now the strong man's body houses the woman's soul, and the strong man's body houses the woman's soul.
That’s why they have these behaviors and tones of voice that are completely inconsistent with their true selves.
Only the rickshaw driver and the big man who exchanged bodies with the rickshaw driver seemed to be luckier.
At least they all acted normal.
"Is there such a thing?" Ming Xin touched his chin, looking thoughtful.
"yes."
"It is also because we remembered that our benefactor is a remarkable man who can control hundreds of flying swords at the same time. He is so brave and extraordinary that we..."
"Controlling hundreds of flying swords at the same time!?"
Ming Xin was shocked and looked at Luo Zheyu with disbelief.
Luo Zheyu glanced at him, stretched out his hand, and a delicate sword the size of a palm appeared out of thin air, hovering in the palm of his hand and spinning slowly.
Everyone around was amazed.
Ming Xin understood what he meant.
It turned out to be an illusion.
The little zombie sitting on a small stool nearby blinked, stretched out his index finger, and poked the rapier in Luo Zheyu's palm with his sharp black nails.
The tip of the nail passed over the rapier, but the rapier was not affected at all and continued to rotate slowly.
Luo Zheyu closed his palms and put away the illusion.
"Go see where it happened?"
He asked.
Everyone agreed.
After renting a few carriages, everyone headed towards the place where the accident happened yesterday.
…………
"Can you please walk more normally? This is my body. If you walk like this, it makes me uncomfortable!"
After getting off the carriage, a woman suddenly yelled at several strong men.
"What's wrong with me walking like this? I haven't said anything about you yet. You walk strangely! Look, is there any other woman who walks like you?"
"The same goes for the standing position. Can't you just... put your legs together?"
The big man was furious and spoke in a coquettish tone.
As he spoke, his eyes became red, he stamped his feet, and turned his head to look aside.
The woman opposite just felt numb all over.
My eyes went dark and I felt dizzy.
He had lived for twenty years and had never been afraid of anything, but now he was so panicked because of a few words and actions of one person.
The big man opposite is his own body!
It's damn scary!
"Second brother, when I look at you now, I feel so upset..."
"Oh, I think you are the same." The woman turned her head and sneered.
"Second brother, fourth brother, stop fighting." The short girl with some baby fat on her face looked up and said seriously.
"Brother, that little bitch is controlling your body to pick flowers and catch butterflies."
"What!?" The chubby girl roared, her eyebrows raised, and looked over with a ferocious face.
Sure enough, a burly man was seen circling around the elegant man, jumping around, and occasionally bending down to pick two small flowers from the grass and putting them in his hands.
This caused the black dog to bark at him non-stop.
The chubby girl was immediately furious.
He was breathing heavily, rushed forward angrily and grabbed the burly man.
"What are you doing?" The burly man turned his head and looked at her confusedly, his tone gentle.
"You are not allowed to do this!" The chubby girl knocked a bunch of yellow and white flowers out of the burly man's hand.
The burly man looked at her in disbelief, then lowered his head to look at the scattered flowers on the ground. His eyes instantly turned red and his mouth turned down.
"You, you are too much!"
"What did you do? How dare you bully our little sister!?"
The big man next to him came forward and said in a sharp voice.
"You're using my little sister's body!"
"Shame on you! What's wrong with picking a flower? You are so petty!"
"Do you want to fight?"
Finally, a woman who was controlling the strong man's body discovered her physical advantage and clenched her fists, eager to try.
“No, no, no…”
The sturdy man next to him quickly grabbed him.
"That's my sister's body, you can't hit her."
"Yes, you can't do that!"
The soul of a big man in the body of a chubby girl: …
I feel bitter.
It’s hard to put into words.
…………
"Did you find anything?"
Luo Zheyu asked, the little zombie was standing next to him, with his makeup still on his face.
Ming Xin frowned slightly, carefully observing his surroundings and feeling everything.
Shaked his head.
Nothing unusual was found.
There was no scent left, and all around was just ordinary wild grass and hills.
The reason why these people exchanged souls cannot be found.
If you can’t find the cause, it will be difficult to get the result.
"Ha...ha..." The black dog ran around with its tongue panting, sniffing the wild grass with its nose.
It seemed to have found the right place. It sniffed a few more times in one place and circled around it a few times.
There was a dwarf tree with a strange appearance. Its leaves were slender and forked from the middle like a snake's tongue. There were also a dozen five-pointed star-shaped leaves on the branches. They were the receptacle leaves left after the flowers withered.
The black dog paused, then raised its hind legs.
Start marking your territory.
"Hey, what kind of tree is this..."
Mingzhen looked over and said suddenly.
"It seems familiar."
