Chapter 77: All Are Tool People

Purgatory Xingjulang's residence here is in a small mansion at the foot of the mountain.

Although the mansion is not big, it is much more spacious than ordinary houses, with a length and width of about 20 to 30 meters. There are several bedrooms, two warehouses, a living room and a kitchen in the courtyard. all available.

The courtyard was very clean, the vegetation was trimmed neatly, and the corridor floor was clean without a trace of dust.

"I usually patrol outside, and follow the crow's instructions to go to places where evil spirits are lurking. When I come back occasionally, I will live here."

Purgatory Xingshou Lang took Liu Xia into this mansion, and introduced him loudly to Liu Xia with his characteristic loud voice.

"There are [hidden] people here to help clean all the year round, so there is no need to do chores, but I usually only come back when major events happen, such as when the lord summons, so this mansion is often not used!"

His loud voice spread throughout the mansion, startling the two members of [Hidden] who stayed in the mansion to clean up, and hurried out of the mansion.

"Master Purgatory! Welcome back! Do you need us to start a fire and cook now?"

The two [hidden] members wore black uniforms similar to those of Lucia's Demon Slayer Squad, with masks on their faces for some unknown reason, and white gloves on their hands, only a pair of eyes were exposed from the whole body.

The two looked like a man and a woman, and they were both about fifteen or sixteen years old. When they saw Lian Ji Xing Shou Lang, their eyes revealed panic and awe.

[Hidden] is a special unit within the Ghost Killing Team to deal with follow-up incidents. Most of them are composed of people without swordsmanship talent, so most of them are just ordinary people. In the Ghost Killing Team, their status is probably even the lowest level of Gui The players can't compare.

Therefore, when facing the highest-status pillar of the Ghost Slayer Squad, they will naturally become very panicked, feeling like they have met a high-ranking government official.

"Well! Please! We haven't eaten yet!"

Purgatory Xingshoulang responded with a full-fledged voice, and at the same time he slapped Lucia on the shoulder beside him.

"Also, let me introduce to you, this is my new stepson, named Cangmimu Liuxia! He will also be entrusted to you to take care of him in the future!"

"No, no, don't dare to act, dare not act!"

The two hidden team members immediately panicked and bowed to Liu Xia, "We are the ones! Master Cang Mimu, please forgive us for what may offend you in our future work!"

These two people were obviously much older than Liu Xia, but when facing Liu Xia, they looked like they didn't even dare to straighten their waists.

From the looks of it, Zhu's authority within the Ghost Slayer Squad was really high, and even the disciples with Zhu had a status far above that of ordinary swordsmen.

After several people got to know each other, the two hidden team members left quickly and went to the kitchen to cook.

Purgatory Xingshoulang brought Liu Xia to the living room and sat down.

"After lunch at noon, let's set off immediately! During the mission, you will definitely encounter many people and things, and these people and things will definitely change your current views!"

In a word, Purgatory Xingshoulang intends to let Liuxia experience more things, to increase his knowledge and knowledge, to get insights from those things, and thus to spontaneously change his personality.

In theory, this method is indeed correct.

People's intelligence does not increase with age, but becomes rich with the increase of knowledge and experience, because they have more knowledge, know various situations and problems, and various People have communicated, so they will have extraordinary knowledge and wisdom.

To sum it up in one sentence, the more you see and understand, the more wisdom and understanding you will have, and only then will people change autonomously.

"On this point, I can say very clearly, no."

However, Liu Xia rejected the proposal of Purgatory Xingshou Lang without hesitation.

"I have already told my lord that I intend to compete with the members of the Ghost Killing Squad, and my lord has also agreed to my request, so I should stay here for the next few months, and it is impossible to go out."

In fact, the lord only promised him the right to compete with other pillars, but did not promise him to stay in the mountains all the time.

However, Liu Xia pretended to pass on the imperial decree, added fuel and vinegar, and secretly changed the content of the agreement.

Then, the whole content is completely different.

At least, after hearing Liu Xia's words, Purgatory Xing Shoulang was stunned.

Can not Go Out?

To compete with the pillars, the lord agreed?

What's the matter?

Purgatory Kyojuro fell into deep thought.

Purgatory Xingshoulang, who is too honest, didn't doubt whether Liu Xia's words were correct, no, even if he really doubted, he went to the lord and asked "Did you agree to let Liu Xia let him compete with Zhu?", he could only get Answer in the affirmative, it doesn't matter whether Liu Xia's words are true or not.

But in this way, the plan prepared by Purgatory Xingshoulang to change Liu Xia's character may come to naught.

Whatever he said, he would never question the Lord's decision.

Since the lord has already allowed Liu Xia to stay, it is impossible for him to take Liu Xia out forcibly no matter what.

But he spends most of the time walking outside in a year, and he doesn't have the chance to come back a few times, so he can't carry out the plan to change Liu Xia's character at all?

"If you really plan to take me out together, then wait until after the discussion between me and the pillars is over."

Seeing that Purgatory Xingshoulang was in trouble, Liu Xia took the initiative to speak out.

Purgatory Xingshoulang thought about it, and it seems that this is the only way. Even if they compete, it is definitely impossible for a long time. The shortest is a month, and the longest is half a year.

Besides, there is no other way.

Purgatory Xingshourou sighed and became a little depressed.

Liu Xia sat silently at the table, looking at the helpless appearance of Lian Ji Xing Shou Lang, feeling indifferent in her heart.

So far, this man's reaction has been within his expectations. He has a very honest personality and loves to take care of others. However, there are no human beings without weaknesses in this world. As long as you find the right spot, it is still easy to reject him.

He can even refuse such a clingy guy as Shanyi, let alone this honest man.

Anyway, no matter what, it is absolutely impossible for him to follow Purgatory Xingshourou on missions.

Originally, the reason why he agreed to become the other party's stepson was just to use his identity to get in touch with the top management of the Demon Slayer Squad, so as to hone his sword skills.

In Liu Xia's eyes, not to mention Purgatory Xingjurou, even the entire Ghost Killing Team is just a tool for him to improve his strength. All the high-level people, including the lord and Zhu, are all tools in his eyes, without exception.

Then after he used up the group of tool men, he left immediately. The countdown to travel through the world ended yesterday, and he can travel through it at any time now. He has no intention of staying in this world for half a year or a year.

In other words, Purgatory Xingshoulang's plan is doomed to fail.

That afternoon.

After eating lunch, Purgatory Kyojuro felt that something was wrong, but after thinking about it, there seemed to be nothing wrong, and then he left the mansion with such a delicate mood, and went out to perform the mission.

So far, Liu Xia has been permanently stationed in the headquarters of the Ghost Slayer Squad.
