Vol 2 Chapter 4: true lie

In the early morning of the next day, the song and dance troupe proceeded towards Xiangye City. According to Xiu Yi's suggestion, instead of focusing on small villages that make less than a few bucks, it is better to hurry up to rehearse new scripts and wait until the big cities to show their skills. Clarice accepted this suggestion, and from this day the members of the song and dance troupe hurry to rehearse Turandot.
Clarice was "ambitious" and vowed to do a great job in Xiangye City. She would never stop without taking away hundreds of Jinweit.
The value of a Kingwitt on this continent is almost equivalent to 200 yuan. Clarice has never seen a lot of money in her life, and hundreds of Kimvites are already the limit of her short-term goals.
At that time Xiuyi was curious to know what wonderful expressions would appear on her face if she knew which random bottle of potion she refused yesterday could sell for hundreds or thousands of King Witt.
But it seems that this approach is a bit too inhuman.
With five carriages, the girls of the cabaret company occupied four, and the remaining carriage and van were the men's place.
It stands to reason that "Intermediate Student" Xiuyi was to be arranged behind, but Clarice finally "showed mercy" once, and did not let Xiuyi be with other men, but he and himself car.
This makes the actors envy that it is always good to be handsome.
But Xiuyi didn't think so. If he could, he would rather be crowded with the group of men, and he couldn't stand the girls' opinion of their own character.
And Clarice did it because she felt it was time to take a good look at the origins of the boy who fell from the sky.
Xiuyi's words yesterday surprised her greatly. It is impossible for ordinary teenagers to have such insight and wisdom.
"Fink, first of all, I should thank you for the suggestions you gave me yesterday. I did not expect that a teenager could understand so much and be so intelligent. In addition, I was surprised to find the script you wrote to me. I have never heard of it, but it is very good. I believe that if it is successfully interpreted, it will become a classic on the mainland. But because of this, I am very surprised. Are you really a messenger sent by the gods? "
Xiu owed to Clarice, "I'm sorry to the head of Clarice, because I didn't know where I was before, lest my fierce and cruel master was near here, so I didn't dare to say who I was. But after knowing that this is the Vanessa group, I have determined that I am far enough away from my terrible master that he cannot catch up with me again and kill me, then I can tell the truth now. "
Daisy blinked her beautiful eyes and asked, "So you are a servant? So you have a terrible master?"
"Yes, beautiful Miss Dess, my host is Imogen Kingery, a member of the Killery family of the Frank Empire. He is an maritime explorer and a businessman. Warcraft hunter, smuggler of alchemy materials. "
"An industry that sounds very profitable." Clarice's pursuit of profit led her to summarize a series of lies carefully woven by Xiu Yi into a "money" core.
"It's very profitable, and my master is doing a lot of business. He has a large fleet and his business is spread across the three continents."
"So why did you run out?"
Xiu Yi politely replied: "Imokine Killery is a very brutal master. He does not allow anyone to disobey his will. I worked in the Killery family for three years and was his attendant. . This position may sound dazzling, but it is actually a terrible thing to be close to a brutal master. I have seen more than once in Killery killing people who have made a small mistake in their work. He is in them He tied stones to his legs, threw them into the sea, and watched them sink to the bottom of the sea, sending out desperate screams and begging for mercy, and then he laughed on the ship himself. Sometimes some giant sea monsters swim to the fleet Nearby, he would also feed some of his followers as food. "
Daisy, Randy, etc. covered their lips, their small faces were frightened, "Oh my God, this sounds terrible."
Clarice looked at Xiu doubtfully: "So how did you come out? How did you know so much?"
"Despite the brutality of Imogen Kingery, he is indeed a very capable host. During his three-year career following him, I learned a lot from him, including cooking and some business practices. You know that sometimes the attendant needs to help the host to do some recording work, which allows me to understand the master's knowledge well and learn enough to settle down. My host came to Reims a month ago Empire, due to a sea storm, his fleet suffered a lot of damage, so he needs to stop there for a while. I found the opportunity and stole some of the master ’s private alchemist ’s things from the master. , Including the potion and the flying cloak. Then I used the flying cloak to escape smoothly. Unfortunately, I did not realize that the flying cloak also had its own limits. After I flew a distance, due to the energy supply of the cloak Insufficient, I fell down. I was too scared and flying around, so I don't know if I flew out of my master's control. "
"So it is." The girls made a sound of understanding, sympathizing with Xiu's experience.
The highest state of lies is to pay attention to the use of details and the fit of their own situation. This lie by Xiu Yi not only revealed some details that were not clear to everyone, the point is that this is very similar to his current environment. They are fleeing servants and are avoiding hunting. It's just that the real situation is that he is about to be hunted by the entire Lance Empire, not by other merchants.
The contrast between the two is obvious.
The girls wouldn't care about the fugitive servants of a noble merchant, which was nothing great, but they certainly didn't dare to oppose the entire empire.
The advantage of doing this is that in the future when he faces some special situations, he can adopt the exact same approach as a real fugitive without worrying about being seen by others. And this is in line with the wild guesses of the girls last night. People are always willing to believe their unexplained degrees. If they can prove their wild guesses, they will feel smart and satisfied.
Another realm of lies is the demarcation between long-term goals and short-term goals. Many lies are always successful for a period of time, but with the passage of time, they will gradually be exposed to the public. If the boundaries of the lie cannot be determined and the time required to prove it, the lie will face dire consequences. Xiuyi used a distant exotic merchant as a cover, to be exact a medium-term cover. It sounds very confirming, as if you can always check whether such a businessman exists, but it will take a while to really prove it.
During this time, Xiuyi was safe and impeccable. By the day you're truly confirmed, he's already gone.
The last benefit of this lie is that this lie is so similar to the facts he experienced, that when he expressed his feelings for the past, he could not hide his hatred and aversion to the environment in which he once lived.
Emotionally, he is unwilling to have any beautiful imagination and cover up of the past.
The lie may be false in itself, but it is emotionally completely true.
This is a true lie.
To her surprise, Clarice didn't seem to be interested in the lie he had carefully crafted, and her eyes were glowing with greed at the moment: "Alchemist's props? You mean you have one that can make people Alchemist props flying in the air? Oh my god, where is it? "
Xiuyi reluctantly replied: "Because it is exhausted, it is useless. In fact, when I fell, it was scattered in the wilderness."
"Oh, you prodigal!" Clarice was excited. "You know that even if it is a scrap, you should put it away. The materials needed to make it are quite precious. As long as it is charged, it Still a good baby, it can sell for a large price. Oh my gosh, should we go back and get that thing right away? "
Clarice murmured to herself.
This woman put Jinshan off, but was thinking about the nifty flying cloak. In fact, the alchemist can indeed make this kind of thing, it will be repaired by Yi, it is not a lost technology, but it is too demanding on materials. Looking at the world, I am afraid that only the materials hidden in the ring owned by Xiuyi are qualified to make it. But Xiuyi didn't plan to do that.
Hines is right, the alchemist's pursuit is magic, not craftsman. He has the ability to resonate with the wind element. Rather than spend energy and materials to make a flying cloak, it is better to let himself master the wind spell as soon as possible, and then let him really fly. The wind masters are all able to fly in the sky, but it is too much mana consumption, and it is not what I can master now.
Maybe it was finally over, Clarice asked Xiuyi, "How much are your potions worth?"
Xiu thought about it and answered, "I'm not very clear. You know that alchemists are not everything very valuable."
"Then I'll wait until you sell them." Clarice discouraged.
The girls were accustomed to Clarice's fanatical worship of money, and Daisy asked Xiu Yi excitedly: "What about your little black dog? What about those two birds?"
Xiu Yi laughed: "They are my long-term partners. These two birds are called red and green, and they are husband and wife. This little black dog ..."
He noticed that when he pointed at the little demon dragon and said the little black dog, Xu's throat made a dissatisfied roar. Noble creatures should not be despised.
Xiu Yi smiled and stroked his head to appease him: "His name is Xu, remember to use his word in the title, he is a very dignified creature. He also does not like others to call him a little black dog, so you can directly Call his name. "
"Asahi?"
"Yes."
"I didn't expect him to have a personality. Can I hug him?"
"Well ... maverick usually means hard to access. So I suggest you give up this idea, Xu does not like to be close to others, even if the other party is a beautiful woman, of course, the beautiful class is the exception." Xiu explained.
Randy comforted him: "Anyway, you are free. Rest assured, although the leader is greedy for money, he will not do anything to sell you back to that abominable host. You can live well here."
Clarice stared at Randy: "Bad things are always said behind others, Randy, pay attention to your words, what makes me very greedy ... even though that is the truth." Speaking of the latter sentence, Clarice had some discouraged.
Dai Sijiao laughed: "No wonder you are so good, you can make delicious meals, and you can also write scripts for the head of the team. It is especially rare that you are so proficient in business. It turns out that your former owner was a businessman." Now, she suddenly held her heart in both hands and looked up at the sky as if she was recite poetry: "No wonder people always say that heroes are born from recklessness, and the difficult environment makes people grow. Oh, maybe all the difficulties and frustrations are caused by God to us. Test. As long as we get out of the way, we will be greeted by the blue sky ... "
Xiu Yi hesitated for a moment, and thought carefully, but she thought that what Daisy said at the moment was quite reasonable. Without the sinister survival environment of Purgatory Island, I am afraid that I may not work hard and study hard, then I am afraid that I may not have such a large amount of knowledge and wealth ...
Of course, Daisy's emotion at this moment is not actually directed at Xiuyi. Her true thought is that perhaps the suffering of Violet now is a sign of their future glory. As for the price to be paid in suffering to become an outstanding character, this was automatically ignored by the little girl.
People are always happy to see the good side, but they do not want to delve into the difficult process.
After thinking about it, Xiu Yi said: "Although I have said my identity, I still hope that you can keep this secret for me. There are so many people in the group, and it is always unfavorable to spread it."
"Relax, Fink, we won't say it. But how can we explain to others?" Daisy asked.
"Just say that I am an aristocrat. I accidentally made a mistake when I tried the Alchemist's flying cloak, and then I met you. How about this reason?" Xiu Yi laughed.
"Oh, you are such a liar." The girls laughed together.
Yeah, Xiuyi sighed. He would lie on Purgatory Island constantly. He never expected to lie on Leaving Purgatory Island.
It seems that God put him here just to make himself a liar.
Clarice asked him: "Fink, now that you have escaped from your terrible master, can you tell me, where are you going next?"
Xiu replied: "I have a trip to Xiangye City if I have a problem, and I will stay there for a while. After that ... I plan to travel around."
"Oh, that's great. We also need to stay in Xiangye City for a while. After all, it is difficult to get a big city. We have to get more performance opportunities. So we can continue to live together, don't we? Since you plan to travel around, you don't care where you go, you can go with the song and dance troupe. Everyone likes to eat your dishes. "Ranty said excitedly. This way, even if Fink was really able to sell his potion in Xiangye City, there was no need to worry that he would leave immediately.
Xiu Yidan said indifferently: "If you welcome, I have no opinion. But I am very worried that my travel will not go smoothly. In fact, my fierce and brutal master will definitely send someone to arrest me. Although I try to confuse me The host left some false clues, but those false clues can only delay for some time, and they will catch up with me sooner or later. So I do n’t think my journey will be too enjoyable. I do n’t think I can stay with you for too long. time."
"Of course we welcome you. But you don't have to worry too much about your master's pursuit. He is not His Majesty Strike. It is impossible for him to extend his hand that long." Clarice invited.
After seeing the boy's extraordinary talk and his wise mind, Clarice has begun to like this boy, so the invitation at this moment is sincere from the heart and has nothing to do with money.
Xiu thought about it and nodded: "I hope so."
