Heaven Defying Formation Mage

Chapter 359 Old Fox and Little Fox

With the affirmation of Hui Lao, Mo Xingnian became more courageous, and continued to analyze: "When I came in, I saw the waiter in the corner drowsy, without any awareness of welcoming customers, and the proprietress saw us I was obviously a little surprised when I went in. Also, although the tables and benches were wiped spotless and the floor was clean, there was a layer of dust on the account books behind the counter, which indicated that this inn had not been in business for a long time, or that they had not done business at all. I didn’t expect business to come.”

"Very good!" Lao Hui's eyes lit up, he didn't expect his apprentice to have such subtle observation skills.Yesterday, Lao Hui also learned from the fifth master that the inn had not slaughtered a single sheep for more than two months, and that it was in the midst of adjusting its manpower, but he did not expect that Mo Xingnian could be able to do so with just these details. infer.

Seeing Lao Hui's reaction, Mo Xingnian knew he had hit the mark again, and couldn't help pursing his lips slightly: "Later we proposed to go out for dinner, and the proprietress tried her best to persuade us to stay in the inn to eat, which is reasonable, but she did it When the dishes came out to remove the apron, I saw some white powder on the apron. The powder was smaller than salt grains, not like any seasoning, and it was ground, obviously for the convenience of melting. So I guessed that the Was it drugged with sweat?"

"Well said!" Lao Hui clapped his hands in admiration. He hadn't even noticed this detail. He didn't expect this girl to be so observant. "Your thoughts are really delicate and your observation skills are keen. Now tell me, since you found out, Why not expose it face to face, but pretend to be tricked?"

"Old Hui, I looked at you the first time I found out. Didn't your eyes tell me to hold back?" Mo Xingnian blinked, with a bit of cunning in his eyes, "And you have already discovered the problem, but I didn't say it was broken, it must have been completely done to me. I am afraid that I will call it bad and ruin your good deed."

Unobtrusively flattering Hui Lao, Mo Xingnian squinted his eyes and smiled like a little fox who stole the fish.

Old Hui stroked his beard complacently, smiled and said nothing, just when Mo Xingnian had stopped asking, he suddenly said: "I don't like you! Tell me quickly, why are you The real reason for not being called broken!"

If you don't eat this set, why do you smile with creases on your face like trumpet flowers?Mo Xingnian was slandering in his heart, but he couldn't evade any more, so he had to answer honestly: "When you went upstairs to check the room, I was sitting downstairs, and the proprietress' child, Hei Wa, just happened to crawl to my feet, and the proprietress came over and took the child away. Picking him up, he didn't dislike the dust on the child's body at all, his expression was natural, and he accidentally mentioned the child's father, so I deduced that Hei Wa should be her biological son."

After finishing speaking, Mo Xingnian quietly raised his eyes, and secretly observed the old gray face, wondering if the other party was interested in his behavior analysis.

Old Hui's face remained calm, but he was extremely surprised.Originally, he thought that the girl had only a little bit of insight, and then relied on a little luck, and just now Mo Xingnian said that she was afraid that she had a plan so she didn't call it out. In fact, he already believed this reason, but it was just habitual Scam again, who knows, he really cheated out of something.

It can be seen from this that although Mo Xingnian has studied psychology and behavioral psychoanalysis, now it is obvious that Jiang is still old and hot, and Hui Lao casually lied a few words, and asked her to obediently say All my discoveries have been explained.

Of course, this is also related to Mo Xingnian's labeling of Hui Lao as unpredictable in advance.

"I have observed that the proprietress and the waiter are ordinary people. They have not practiced before, and it is even difficult to restrain me. But they dare to attack us, a team that obviously has practitioners. There are only two reasons!" Mo Xing When Nian was using his expertise for analysis, his eyes were bright and firm, and his dark face was full of radiance.

Seeing her pause, Old Hui asked very appreciatively: "Which two?"

"First, they have nothing to fear, they have backers behind them, and they have helpers when they act; second, they are forced to do so, and they must have unavoidable difficulties, otherwise, the proprietress would not take her young children to take risks together!" Mo Mo Xing Nian waved her arm vigorously, decisively and neatly, showing that she was extremely confident in her own judgment.

Lao Hui suppressed the surprise in his eyes, and asked with a faint smile, "Then do you think it is the first reason, or the second?"

"Master, will you continue to test me?" Mo Xingnian's expression changed, and he looked at Old Hui with a smile, with a bit of playfulness, "I guessed both points correctly, didn't I?"

This time, Old Hui didn't even bother to hide his shock, his eyes widened suddenly: "How did you know?" If it is said that she knew that the masked man had nothing to fear because she fought against him, that would be reasonable , but no one knew about the proprietress and Hei Wa I found in the cellar of the back kitchen, and about forcing Ge Xiaoqi to be interrogated. I didn't even have time to tell Tuoba Jueye, how did she know about it?

Mo Xingnian chuckled, pursed his lips and remained silent.

"You little girl, you actually betrayed me." Old Hui couldn't help but shook his head helplessly.

"If the master hadn't been playing tricks on me all the time, why would he have secretly observed me all the way?" Mo Xingnian asked back, and then changed the topic, with a bit of self-pity, "I guess the master didn't make up his mind at all. Did you teach me, that's why you observed secretly. Pity me for being exhausted in the snowy forest, tossing myself half to death, but someone actually slacked off watching the show."

When Old Hui heard what she said, he blushed and couldn't help feeling embarrassed.When Tian Pangpang found him to recommend Mo Xingnian, he was really hesitant and unwilling to accept disciples casually, so he didn't directly agree, but said that he would consider it.But who knew that Fatty Tian would introduce such a talented girl to himself!If I had known this before, I would have agreed to it at the beginning, and I would have saved myself from being questioned and speechless now.

Of course, anyway, Hui Lao is always a master, how can he be speechless when being questioned by his apprentice, even if he is wronged, he must regain his momentum.So he straightened his back, coughed, and cursed with a smile: "You little girl, you have a sharp tongue. Since ancient times, it is only natural for a master to test his apprentice. Do you still have complaints?"

"He has already agreed to accept apprentices, and he will be tested after he becomes a master." Mo Xingnian muttered in a low voice. Seeing that Mr. Hui was faintly annoyed, he quickly smiled, and his big black and white eyes rolled around. , rubbed his hands and said, "However, master, you are not an ordinary person, so you can test it in advance. Since you have finished the test and are satisfied, master, the gift of meeting can't be so shabby with just two rosary beads, right?"
