No matter if it was the fierce Ingji Tribesmen or the chattering green Peluxiu, they did not notice Gleipnir's arrival.
On the contrary, Ai Dehua, who looked the most inconspicuous, suddenly stopped what he was doing and turned to look at the door in confusion.
The door was closed and he did not hear any footsteps.
But for some reason, Ai Dehua felt that something was wrong. It was as if someone was staring at him.
This feeling made Ai Dehua very uncomfortable. It reminded him of the time when he was locked in the Ingji World and was watched by the "people" outside the world.
This feeling of being sized up and observed made him very uncomfortable.
"Hey, hey, did you hear that? The rent is going to increase, it's going to increase! " Pi Baibai put his hands on his waist and raised his head proudly. "Do you see that? My shop is a prime rental. The people lining up outside are all attracted by my shop's prime location."
"So, the rent we talked about yesterday will have to be changed. Ten crystals a day is too little. At least a hundred … no, two hundred crystals a day! "
Pi Baibai muttered as he walked to Ai Dehua's side. "Hey, why are you so rude? Answer me. Don't think that just because you are a Crystal Eye Tribesman and I am in your Crystal City, you can take me down. "
"Let me tell you, behind me is …"
Without waiting for Pi Baibai to finish, Ai Dehua gently stretched out his hand and touched Pi Baibai's cheek.
Under Pi Baibai's surprised gaze, he gently waved his hand and pushed the short and thin Peluxiu to the side.
"Don't block my view." After Ai Dehua pushed Pi Baibai away, he did not forget to add.
Pi Baibai originally thought that Ai Dehua was going to slap him. Seeing that Ai Dehua only pushed him away, he heaved a sigh of relief. After hearing Ai Dehua's words, Pi Baibai raised his eyebrows and thought that someone had come in.
He turned around and said, "You can't come in now. I don't see any customers. When the customers here are all gone, you … eh, there's no one?"
Pi Baibai turned around and stared at Ai Dehua. "Are you playing with me?"
Ai Dehua ignored Pi Baibai's clamor and kept staring at the door. — The gaze that was sizing him up came from the door.
Pi Baibai and Ai Dehua's conversation also attracted the attention of the Ying Ji tribe's soldiers. They saw strands of flames floating out from his hair.
As the flames churned, they turned into a Void Fire Eye that looked at the door.
But soon, the fiery eye closed its eyes and merged back into his hair.
Clearly, he did not see anything and only thought that Ai Dehua was playing with Pi Baibai.
But at that moment, Ai Dehua suddenly narrowed his eyes and said in the direction of the door, "Is that Bubbles?"
After a long while, no one responded.
Pi Baibai looked at the empty door and then at Ai Dehua. "Who's Bubbles?"
Since Ai Dehua did not turn to look at him, Pi Baibo thought his words would be ignored again. He was already used to it.
However, what Pi Baibai did not expect was that this time, Ai Dehua actually replied: "Bubbles is a friend of mine. She is a Star Master."
Pi Baibai: "And what is a Star Master?"
Ai Dehua continued: "The Star Master is the Child of Supervoid."
Pi Baibai tilted his head: "And what is the Child of Supervoid?"
Ai Dehua turned his head and glared at him: "If you ask again, I won't pay today's rent."
Pi Baibai's eyes shined: "So to say, you agree with my rent increase?"
Is that how I interpret these words? Ai Dehua looked at Pi Baibai's expectant expression and only felt his temples throbbing with pain. He now had a taste of Pi Luxiu's temperament. This was only his first day of renting, not even half a day, and he already began to raise the rent.
However, this sort of money-grubbing race was relatively easy to control. So long as enough money was given, he would do what needed to be done.
Just like the hairdressing area here, the display area for wigs outside, as well as the display cabinets with defensive measures, Pi Baibai only spent an hour to finish.
"I can raise the rent." Ai Dehua paused: "However, I need you to help me do something."
Pi Baibai: "What is it?"
Ai Dehua hooked his finger, and Pi Baibai immediately leaned over.
After hearing Ai Dehua's whisper, he was somewhat bewildered, but he still nodded, opened the door and walked out.
What Ai Dehua wanted him to do was very simple: check the situation of the line outside.
"What can happen in the line? Isn't it just overcrowded? He just wants to show off. Don't think that it's your work. My golden room is worth at least 50% of the credit. "
Pi Baibai muttered as he walked to the door.
Then, he realized that outside the door … there were only a few people left.
Pi Baibai scratched his head, a puzzled expression on his face. He remembered that before he went to the hairdressing area, he had seen the situation outside. Wasn't it full?
Moreover, when he came out and passed by the rest area, there was no one there.
What happened?
While Pi Baibai was still in shock, a crystal eye race guard came in front of him with a smile and bowed. Then, Pi Baibai felt that he couldn't move.
Even his mouth was covered with a layer of crystal membrane, making it impossible for him to speak.
Under Pi Baibai's frightened gaze, the crystal eye race guard said softly: "Don't shout. I just want you to sit at the side. Look over there. That should be your commanding officer. He is waiting for you over there. You can go directly. "
Pi Baibai raised his head and saw Pilouxiu not far away.
That was... Lord Pi Xi!
He was also Duke Pi Xiu's assistant and was in charge of the economy.
To a certain extent, Pi Xi was indeed his superior.
Because he saw Pi Xi, Pi Baibai's hanging heart calmed down a little. He nodded at the crystal eye race guard and walked over.
When Pi Baibai came to Pi Xi's side, the crystal membrane on his mouth slowly disappeared.
Pi Baibai saw this and immediately wanted to ask.
However, Pi Xi made a "shh" gesture at him and then said in a low voice, "Don't ask, just stay here …"
Although Pi Baibai had many doubts in his heart, he knew how to judge the situation. Looking at the current situation, it seemed that there was no way to clear up his doubts.
However, he had his own guesses. Pi Baibai looked back at his store: "Could it be that there's something wrong with that Ying Ji person? Could it be a fugitive? "
...
On the other side, Ai Dehua waited for a few minutes and saw that Pi Baibai had not returned.
He seemed to have understood something.
Ai Dehua was silent for a moment and said softly: "It will be over soon."
The Ying Ji person thought he was talking to himself. He raised his head and looked at the mirror: "Is it over soon?"
The Void Fire Eyes rose again.
Looking at his gray hair in the mirror, he could not help but be surprised: "Not bad. When you recommended gray hair, I was worried that it would make me look old. I didn't expect it to work so well."
Not only did it not look old, but it was also very trendy. This kind of greyish-white hair was like an exquisitely dressed grandmother. Although her hair was slightly white, it was greasy.
Together with the exquisite hairstyle, he felt that his combat power had increased a little.
Why did his combat power increase?
Of course, it was because he was handsome. Being handsome made him feel good. When he was in a good mood, his combat power would naturally increase.
Five minutes later, Ai Dehua lifted the cloth covering the Ying Ji person's shoulder: "Done."
The Ying Ji person stood up and looked at the mirror proudly.
"Not bad, not bad." The Ying Ji person only thought that it looked good: "But it doesn't seem to have triggered the special effect you mentioned?"
Ai Dehua: "Triggering the special effect is a small probability event. It has something to do with my improvisation. I didn't perform well on the spot just now, so it didn't work very well. "
The Ying Ji person patted Ai Dehua's shoulder: "It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. At least you look handsome. I didn't expect my gray hair to be so handsome. I'll come to you again next time. "
The Yingji Tribe soldier left a bag of condensed crystals and strode out.
Looking at the back of the Ying Ji person, Ai Dehua sighed softly. Next time … There shouldn't be a next time, right?
After the last customer left, Ai Dehua was the only one left in the hairdressing area.
He carefully put away the scissors and comb and wiped the stains on the table. His every movement was very careful. He seemed to be saying goodbye to his career as if he were saying goodbye to it.
Although it sounded a little tragic, Ai Dehua was indeed saying goodbye to his career in his heart.
Pi Baibai hadn't returned for a long time, the noise outside was completely gone, and even the footsteps in the exhibition area were gone … Everything was unusual.
Thinking of the strange gazes he had sensed earlier, Ai Dehua knew that he had been targeted.
He guessed that the higher-ups of the Crystal Eye Race had discovered that something was wrong with him.
The original owner of this body was probably a big shot … Only in this way could he have attracted the attention of the higher-ups of the Crystal Eye Race so quickly.
Thinking about it, it made sense. To be able to break into the Ghost Domain and successfully obtain the legacy left by that great person, the Crystal Eye Race person he had occupied must be very powerful.
With such powerful strength, he must be a big shot in the Crystal Eye Race.
"Sigh, I originally wanted to sneak in and slowly learn the abilities of the Crystal Eye Race. I didn't expect to be caught so quickly." Ai Dehua turned to look at the door.
"Come out. I won't run away."
Under Ai Dehua's gaze, the outline of a person slowly appeared at the door.
It was an old woman with a staff draped in starlight.
Seeing her appear, Ai Dehua was a little stunned: He thought it would be a Crystal Eye Race person, but it was a … human?
No, there were many humanoid races in the Mirror Region. Maybe this was a humanoid?
But why would a humanoid come to catch him? Was it commissioned by the Crystal Eye Race?
Ai Dehua shook his head and threw away the doubts in his heart. His gaze was fixed on the starlight around the old woman. "It really is the power of the stars. I thought it was Bubbles. Right, Bubbles is still in the Instrument World. How could she come out? "
Shaking his head, Ai Dehua looked at the old woman and said, "Are you here to catch me?"
Glepnir looked at Ai Dehua, who was talking to himself, and said softly, "Are you deliberately trying to arouse my interest?"
Ai Dehua glanced at Glepnir. "I'm just lamenting. However, if I can arouse your interest, it will be a good thing for Bubbles. "
After all, Star Spirit Warlocks and Star Masters were mutually beneficial.
This old woman who controlled the power of the stars was probably a Star Spirit Warlock. If she could rescue Bubbles, it would be good for both her and Bubbles.
After Bubbles was rescued, she might be able to put in a good word for her.
Therefore, when Ai Dehua vaguely sensed the strange power of the stars in the surroundings, he did mention Bubbles on purpose. Including Pi Baibai's previous question, he also deliberately mentioned Bubbles' identity as a "Star Master."
Glepnir looked at Ai Dehua, his face expressionless, but he was lamenting in his heart. This guy is indeed a cunning person.
Whether it was mentioning Bubbles, arranging for Pi Baibai to leave, or even waiting for the Yingji Race to leave, this series of events seemed to be a setup.
However, this setup was not for escape. — He also knew that with his current strength, there was no way to escape.
His setup was more about showing his attitude.
Showing his position, showing his "kindness", showing his harmlessness.
This could actually be called … establishing a persona.
If he showed too much sharpness, or too sharp and evil, he would have probably been thrown into prison or even wiped out.
Now that he was able to talk calmly, it meant that he had made the right move.
This was also the reward he received after showing his attitude. Of course, his attitude was also to test Glepnir's attitude. Glepnir did not immediately make a move and was willing to talk, which meant that his setup was successful.
Glepnir could guess Ai Dehua's thoughts, but the other party was just taking advantage of the situation. He was magnanimous and even threw out the Star Master that could attract Glepnir's attention.
Even if Glepnir did not want to take it, he could only take it.
Besides … it was not that she did not want to take it.
Although she was still unhappy about Ai Dehua taking over her good friend's body, she knew that Ai Dehua was definitely not the mastermind of the mirror game. The various NPCs in the mirror game were all for the Spirit Change Ceremony.
Even if it was not Ai Dehua, Shiluda could have been transferred out by other NPCs.
Therefore, Ai Dehua just happened to be there.
If Ai Dehua wanted to resist fiercely, Glepnir would definitely suppress him more forcefully. However, Ai Dehua was now putting on a peaceful face and trying to talk.
Glepnir naturally welcomed him.
To understand the mirror game, Ai Dehua, the NPC who escaped from the mirror, was the key.
Glepnir said, "If you really want to arouse my interest, then what you should be doing now is not remaining silent. Instead, talk about your situation … Who are you? How did you take over this body? Where is the original owner of this body? "
Although Glepnir already knew the answers to these questions, she still wanted to hear what Ai Dehua had to say.
If Ai Dehua wanted to hide these questions, then there was no need to talk normally.
When it was necessary, it was necessary to be more forceful.
Ai Dehua did not know that Glepnir already knew about him. Facing her question, he thought for a moment and said, "These questions are a long story. Why don't we sit down and talk? "
"We can sit down and talk, but we have to change places."
