The group's favorite master, the story of a cute baby who travels through the book and defies t

Until the jailer came to open the door, Xu Zhi still didn't get any response. If it weren't for Lin Shuhui's shallow breathing, he almost thought that the other party was just a human puppet.

puppet?

As soon as he thought about it, something flashed by, so fast that he couldn't catch it. He could only leave the cell amid the jailer's impatient urging.

After bidding farewell to the yamen runner who was leading the way, Xu Zhi left the yamen through the back door and walked alone in the deserted alley.

Halfway through his walk, he suddenly stopped and said in a loud voice, "The two of you who have been following me, now that you have left the cell, please come out and see me!"

After waiting for a while, two people suddenly appeared in front of him, a man and a woman. He had never seen the man before, but the woman seemed a little familiar despite her strangeness.

Because of this sense of familiarity, Xu Zhi did not feel disgusted by the other party's behavior of following him secretly.

"I am Wuliangzong Xuzhi, and I would like to ask where you two are from? Why did you get involved in Lin Shuhui's murder case?"

"Master Xuzhi, long time no see! How do you feel about traveling around the world and practicing?"

Faced with the woman's very familiar tone, Xu Zhi showed a surprised expression.

"Does this lady recognize me?"

"It's me! Luo Yiyi! Don't you remember me?"

"Luo, Luo Yiyi? Are you that Luo Yiyi?"

Xu Zhi's face was filled with shock. He only knew that the child should have grown up after so many years, but when the grown-up Luo Yiyi really stood in front of him, he felt a sense of confusion.

Luo Yiyi thought that his frightened look was very interesting, but she did not tease him too much and introduced Qi Gui to him honestly.

Xuzhi, with a feeling of inexplicable emotion, came to the inn where Master Luo Yiyi and his disciple were staying.

When he saw Luo Rourou and Luo Cheese taking a nap in the spacious room, his shocked expression gradually turned into numbness, and he secretly sighed that he still had too little experience.

The two sat down face to face at the table, and soon the table was filled with all kinds of snacks by Qi Gui. Even the tea brewed in the teapot was the spiritual tea brewed by Qi Gui himself.

After doing all this, Qi Gui stood directly behind Luo Yiyi. No matter from which angle you look at him, he was a good and responsible apprentice.

Luo Yiyi reached out and picked up the rose cake, put it in her mouth and took a big bite. After swallowing it, she took a sip of the spiritual tea. Then, regardless of Xu Zhi's complicated eyes that frequently looked at Qi Gui, she directly explained the purpose of her visit to him.

"Master Xuzhi, I have my own opinion on this case. Would you like to listen to it?"

"Miss Luo, please speak."

"Oh, we are all family, why call me Miss Luo? Just call me Yiyi."

Xu Zhi's mouth twitched and he seriously corrected her.

"Miss Luo, you and I are disciples of different sects, and we are not family members."

"But, since I have been a disciple of the Infinite Sect, even if it was only for a short period of time, according to the traditions of the Infinite Sect, I should be considered half a disciple of the Infinite Sect, right?"

Xu Zhi was choked by what she said and secretly felt that there was some truth in it, but he immediately suppressed this ridiculous thought.

"Miss Luo, Wuliang Sect has never recruited female disciples. We allowed you to stay in Wuliang Sect temporarily in order to eliminate your evil spirit, and we allowed you to participate in Wuliang Sect's daily lessons because you were a child. But all these were abandoned when you left the sect."

Luo Yiyi pouted and complained quietly: "What a heartless man!"

This time, not only the corners of Xuzhi's mouth, but even the corners of his eyebrows couldn't help twitching. He believed in his heart that Luo Yiyi, who was not easy to mess with when she was a child, would be even harder to mess with when she grew up.

Luo Yiyi simply stopped wasting time and went straight to the point when she spoke again.

"I think the master has already noticed Lin Shuhui's abnormality. That state is definitely not what an ordinary person should look like."

Xu Zhi nodded in agreement with her statement, but his thick brows were tightly furrowed.

"I have carefully examined her body and found nothing unusual. There is no demonic infestation or mystical spells. I cannot confirm anything based on her condition."

"So we have to take the initiative and find the breakthrough point in her heart. Only when her heart begins to loosen will we have a chance to get the truth."

Xu Zhi was stunned for a moment, and the next moment his expression suddenly became solemn.

"Please enlighten me, Miss Luo. What is the breakthrough point in Lin Shuhui's heart? And how can we break through it?"

"The breakthrough point in a person's heart must be the person or thing she cares about the most. I think everyone in this town knows that Lin Shuhui cares the most about her husband, Xu Changyi. Therefore, we will use Xu Changyi as the breakthrough point to break her heart."

"But Xu Changyi has passed away, and his body has long been buried under the arrangement of the Xu family's housekeeper. There is no such person as Xu Changyi in the world anymore."

"No, there can be Xu Changyi in the world."

"how do I say this?"

Luo Yiyi raised her right hand and snapped her fingers neatly.

Xu Zhi slowly widened his eyes, because in front of him, Qi Gui, who had been standing quietly behind Luo Yiyi without a sound, suddenly changed. In a short while, his face and figure had completely turned into another strange man.

Although the stranger's appearance was not outstanding, he was gentle and elegant, with a scholarly air and a convincing sense of steadiness.

All in all, this is a man worthy of trust.

"Is this an illusion?"

Hearing Xu Zhi's question, Luo Yiyi readily admitted it.

"That's right! Guigui's best skill is illusion. Unless a cultivator is two realms higher than him, it is impossible to break his illusion!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhi looked at it intently, then shook his head in disappointment. With his level of cultivation, he really couldn't see through the surface of Qi Gui's illusion.

"The disciples of Tianyan Sect are indeed extraordinary. Today, I have witnessed this once again."

Luo Yiyi successfully grasped the key point in his words and asked curiously.

"Again? Which other extraordinary Tianyan Sect disciple has Master Xuzhi met?"

"Isn't it you, Miss Luo?"

Faced with Xu Zhi's sincere answer, Luo Yiyi smiled awkwardly and changed the subject in time.

"The person who has transformed into someone else is Xu Changyi."

"But the appearance has changed but the inner self has not. As his wife, Lin Shuhui can easily notice the difference between the two."

Unexpectedly, Luo Yiyi had full confidence in Qi Gui.

"I promise I won't let her know! Gui Gui not only changed his appearance to Xu Changyi, but also imitated his inner qualities. Not only his wife, but even his mother can't tell the difference."

What Luo Yiyi didn't say was that the "scumbag" protagonist is very good at deceiving girls. It can be said that there is no woman in this world that Qi Gui cannot fool!

——Except her of course!

Xu Zhi looked at the gentle and smiling "Xu Changyi" carefully again and nodded in disbelief.

"That's natural, there's no problem. What Miss Luo said is worth a try. Maybe when Lin Shuhui meets Xu Changyi, something unexpected will happen. I will be prepared for it."

Next, after the two discussed the details, Xu Zhi stood up and said goodbye.

As he was about to leave, Xu Zhi stood outside the room and asked casually.

"Fellow Daoist Qi must have never seen Xu Changyi before, so how could he transform into his appearance? And even imitate his inner self?"

What answered him was Luo Yiyi's finger raised to her lips when she closed the door.

"It's a secret!"
