Chapter 176 Favor
"Beautiful lady, your hat has fallen off."
Xia Xiaoyu stood there in a daze, staring at the other person in shock.
After a long while, she reached out to take the hat, nodded slightly and said thank you: "Thank you, thank you."
"No thanks, you are very beautiful. Would you like to go to the palace with me?" the knight asked politely. He looked around a little uncomfortably, feeling as if something was missing.
But soon, he stopped thinking about it and focused his attention on Xia Xiaoyu again.
"It's my honor, but could you please wait for a moment? I still have some things to deal with at home. Can I come to see you in the evening?" Xia Xiaoyu had a smile on her face, but her heart was in turmoil.
What kind of monster is this thing that looks like a human in front of me?
Is he a monster like a demon?
If that were the case, it would be too horrible. He was able to pick up the hat and return it to her voluntarily, proving that he had reached a completely inhuman stage, but his behavior was still so human-like. How on earth did he do that?
While thinking, Xia Xiaoyu was also praying in her heart, praying that the other party would not take her into the palace immediately. Her intuition reminded her that the humanoid monster in front of her was very dangerous!
"Of course, what's your name? I'll greet the guard and have them show you in."
Xia Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief: "My name is Xia Li, I will come to see you in the evening."
The other party nodded, and Xia Xiaoyu immediately turned around and walked out of the crowd.
"Wait a moment!"
She hadn't taken a few steps when the person behind her suddenly called her.
Xia Xiaoyu turned to look at the man, who smiled and said, "You haven't asked my name yet, how did you find me?"
"Sorry, I'm so excited. What's your name?"
"My name is Jin Yumin, just say my name when the time comes."
"yes."
Xia Xiaoyu left in a hurry, repeating the other person's name in her heart.
The other person looks exactly like a Westerner, but his name is a standard Chinese name.
This kind of Chinese name does not exist in this world. If he did not deliberately imitate the name of an outsider, it is very likely that he himself is an outsider like Su Ming.
The outsider made a contract with the God of Dreams and then turned into an inhuman monster?
I feel like there's a scary story in between.
Xia Xiaoyu has already decided not to go to the palace, as there might be monsters like Jin Yumin in the palace.
She planned to wait outside for news from Su Ming first. If there was no news from Su Ming, then she would risk entering the palace.
Xia Xiaoyu didn't care about Jin Yumin coming to find her because he couldn't find her at all and he couldn't get any news about her from anyone.
…
"My waiter will take you to see the rooms. Just choose the one you like. After you choose the room, take a shower and then come to my room. I will wait for you." Ansiriel gently stroked Su Ming's cheek, smiled charmingly, and turned to leave.
Arthur frowned, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. He thought he was more handsome than Su Ming, but why did that woman like Su Ming so much?
"They don't select people based on appearance." Su Ming saw through Arthur's thoughts and said casually.
Arthur was stunned: "What do you mean?"
"I'm not sure either, but I think it has something to do with the devil's habits." Su Ming said.
When he was chosen by the woman at first sight on the street, he remembered his previous conversation with the Demon of Love.
It seemed that he was quite delicious food in the eyes of the devil, and it couldn't be a coincidence that Ansiriel took a liking to him at first sight during the parade.
His appearance is not stunning, and his behavior is very low-key, so it is impossible for the other party to like him for no reason, so the real reason must be related to the devil's "eating habits".
At this point, Su Ming can already conclude that the so-called gods in this world are demons.
He felt that danger was gradually approaching him. Ever since he entered this royal city, Su Ming felt like a living food wandering on a devil's plate.
Whether he lives or dies depends entirely on the will of the devil. The reason why he can still move freely here is because the devil thinks he can't escape from this plate and is thinking about how to cook him.
Of course, there was another possibility, which was that the demon didn't notice him at all.
The demons in this world seemed too powerful to Su Ming. People like him might be as small as ants to the demons.
Therefore, he might not have been chosen by the devil's will, but because the woman named Ansiriel thought he was suitable to be offered to the devil.
As you can imagine, it is not an easy thing to survive in such a place, but Su Ming feels that since he has come to the devil's table, he should be able to find some unknown truths. After knowing these truths, he may be able to find out the weaknesses of the person in his dream.
"Excuse me, are you the guests of Lady Ansiriel?" An old woman with a wrinkled face appeared in front of them.
"That's right."
"I'll show you the room now, please follow us."
Su Ming and Arthur followed the old woman who led the way to the guest rooms. On the left were neatly arranged rooms, and on the right led directly to a courtyard full of flowers and plants. The rows of rooms were all occupied by people like them.
The doors of some rooms were open, and some thin, pale men were wandering aimlessly in the rooms.
They grinned foolishly at passers-by like Su Ming. In the room, many people were walking around naked without any clothes on.
"Something doesn't feel right." Arthur whispered in Su Ming's ear.
Su Ming nodded. He knew something was wrong without Arthur telling him.
He and Arthur chose two adjacent rooms and sent the old woman away. Arthur looked worried. Su Ming looked at Arthur and said, "Arthur, you didn't have to come in with me. I can handle it alone."
"It's too dangerous for you to be alone in there. I want to be with you to keep an eye on you. It's obvious that Ansiriel is not a good person." Arthur lowered his voice and looked around cautiously, exploring the surroundings carefully.
"Actually, you can stay in this city until foreign aid comes. I think this is actually a good idea." Su Ming said with some regret.
"It's enough to have Feiyun outside, and now that I'm here, I can't go out even if I want to." Arthur asked, half puzzled and half puzzled, "Why don't you seem happy for me to come in with you? I think you'd better not treat me as your competitor. This will kill both me and you."
"Isn't it strange for you to say this? Before we entered the White Mist, who didn't want to cooperate with me?"
Arthur was speechless for a moment, sighed, and shook his head helplessly: "You really hold a grudge. I didn't know it was so dangerous here. Now, as long as you can let me out, what does it matter if I can be the district chief?"
"real?"
"…Just kidding, you’ll have to rely on your own abilities when you get out." Arthur said coldly.
Su Ming smiled.
After the two said goodbye, they each went to their new rooms. The new living environment was much better than the cellar outside. All the daily necessities were very exquisite and were treasures. After Su Ming took a look around, he became roughly familiar with the layout of the room here.
He sat down beside the bed and began to seriously consider his next course of action. He had to investigate the origins of the person in his dream while ensuring his own safety.
If you want to ensure your own safety, you must know how the other party will harm you. Look at the people in those rooms you just passed by. They all look malnourished, as if their bodies have been drained dry.
Su Ming didn't know whether they were overindulging themselves or taking some harmful drugs, but he was sure that it was not caused by natural dieting.
Perhaps he should find a chance to ask them, but would it be safe to ask them? Would they be honest with him? Even if they were honest, would they tell the person in his dream?
Can these uncertain problems be solved using super intuition?
Su Ming planned the order of questioning and probing questions in detail in his mind, and kept rehearsing the questions and answers between himself and the other party, but the final result was regrettable.
Although super intuition can determine their true inner thoughts, in order to determine their true thoughts, one must ask the other party. Therefore, if the other party is an informer, the action of asking has already exposed his true purpose.
The only way to get the answer without revealing your purpose is to use very secretive words and hint at the other party.
"Hmm? What are you thinking about so seriously? Are you thinking about me? Or are you thinking about your family outside?"
Su Ming looked up suddenly and saw Ansiriel standing at the door, staring at him with her breathtakingly beautiful eyes.
She walked in, took a few big steps to the bedside, pushed Su Ming's shoulder with her right hand, pushed Su Ming down on the bed, and pressed her body on him. She stroked Su Ming's cheek, rubbing her smooth and slender fingers back and forth on Su Ming's face, and put her lips close to Su Ming's ear, and whispered:
"Don't think about the outside world. Soon I will make you so comfortable that you won't be able to think about anything~"
The alarm in Su Ming's mind went off, reminding him that he could never enjoy this kind of eroticism.
Su Ming was also very anxious and his mind was in a mess. He couldn't find an effective way to refuse. He couldn't just use his supernatural powers to start a war with the other party.
But apart from being unable to resist, it seemed that he had no other means to resist the other party.
Damn it! How could this woman be more direct than Xia Xiaoyu! She doesn't even cultivate feelings!
Ansiriel began to touch Su Ming all over. Her hands had already passed his lower abdomen. At this time, Su Ming was quick-witted and shouted, "My lord, I haven't taken a bath yet!"
Sure enough, Ansiriel stopped moving. She turned over, moved away from Su Ming, and gently circled her fingers on Su Ming's chest.
"Go quickly, and better not make me wait too long. I'm not a patient person." Ansiriel said in her magnetic voice.
"I understand!" Su Ming ran to the bathroom as if he had been pardoned.
"Don't wash in your room, come to my place. You have to ask someone to run hot water here, it's too slow."
"Uh... it should be okay to wait a little bit, right?"
"I can't wait, come with me."
