Wang Li, the son of the county prime minister, behaved in a very contradictory manner.
He wanted to get Zhang Manning, but he couldn't accept others rejecting Zhang Manning.
In the eyes of most people, this is a love-struck young man who is trapped in love and mentally broken, so he is reckless and unreasonable.
But in Zhou Yuan's eyes, Wang Li, the son of the county prime minister, was simply a source of information, and his own condition proved the viciousness of the Painted Skin.
Because there is not only a health bar above Wang Li’s head, but also special identity information 【Level 2 Emotional Puppet Wang Li】.
This is the weakest monster Zhou Yuan has ever seen since his debut.
He even suspected that if he slapped Wang Li, Wang Li would have to give up his experience and fall into eternal sleep.
But it was this arrogant and weak guy who brought Zhou Yuan a piece of information.
"Qing Kui, this name is well chosen. Qing comes before Kui, which is the cause; Kui comes after Qing, which is the result.
Will he be led by love, become infatuated and become a puppet in the end?"
Zhou Yuan didn't know if his guess was right, but Wang Li's condition had already confirmed a lot.
The word "puppet" means that he has lost the ability to make his own choices.
The key point is that his level is so low. Not to mention 【Level 15 Painted Skin Manning】, even the 【Level 5 Painted Skin Girl】 in the brothel can kick him down with one kick.
"It turns out that in addition to making suits, the Painted Skins also have the ability to control others."
Zhou Yuan thought carefully and found that he had not seen any other love puppets in the city in the past two days, and there was no such marking on people entering and leaving brothels.
I think ordinary Painted Skins don’t have the ability to create emotional puppets. Only a few powerful Painted Skins have this ability to confuse and control.
"Zhou Yuan, where are you and why don't you dare to see me?
Don't pull me, I'm waiting for him to give me an explanation and give Manning an explanation."
Zhou Yuanzhen is not good at dealing with such people, and is better at digging a hole to keep them calm forever.
However, although Wang Li is quite annoying, his crime does not deserve the death penalty.
Therefore, Zhou Yuan ignored this infatuated and resentful guy and turned to walk towards Chunrongfang.
On the way, he entered two brothels and found an 【Level 8 Painted Skin Dancer】 to verify his disguise.
Sure enough, the Painted Skin Dancer couldn't notice anything different about him. Instead, she said he had a good figure and invited him into her room to play at night.
"Indulging in pleasure and indulgence, these painted skins live more comfortably than the ordinary people in the city. It has become a place where ghosts enjoy themselves but people suffer."
As we walked, we were getting closer and closer to Chunrongfang in the east of the city, and the density of painted skins nearby increased a lot.
This phenomenon is very abnormal. When Zhou Yuan and Cai Cheng came here to control the ghost problem, the density of painted skins here was no higher than other places.
"Are there already many of them here? They were hiding before, or are they gathering here on purpose to plan something?"
Zhou Yuan walked along the direction of the painted skins' flow and found that those painted skins did not stop when passing by the 【Level 15 Painted Skin Manning】's mansion, but continued to move forward.
As we walked further into the market town, the surrounding buildings became larger and more imposing, the number of pedestrians gradually decreased, and the number of servants and maids in each mansion gradually increased.
It was not until they reached a small bridge and flowing water that the painted skins entered a quiet courtyard.
Zhou Yuan could see clearly that the courtyard was a small temple, facing Chunrongfang and backed towards the street market.
"What's that rascal doing there? Go in and donate the fluid. I don't want the monthly salary anymore."
"Hey, I'll be right there."
When an old man with painted skin passed by Zhou Yuan, he pulled him twice and asked him to enter the temple quickly.
After Zhou Yuan entered, he found that this was a Fangshen Temple, equivalent to the land temple in rural villages and towns.
Although the deity is small and the temple is not big, the statue of the deity is very delicate, like a lifelike and kind old man.
Many people came in from the street market to burn incense, and some even put a few copper coins into the incense box.
Zhou Yuan looked up and took a closer look. He found that the statue had identity information on it: 【Skin of the God of the Market】.
The pilgrims burn incense as offerings, and the painted skins offer liquids as offerings.
The dark Yin fluid dripped from the eye sockets of the Painted Skin. 【Level 10 Painted Skin Temple Priest】 reached out to catch it and smeared it on the back of the statue.
If you donate the painted skin that has accumulated Yin fluid, you will get 5 strings of copper coins, which should be about 500 coins depending on the size and length.
Zhou Yuan's scalp tingled when he saw this situation. It was not surprising that the painted skins covered the Fangshen with skin, but what was strange was that the skin really had the name of "Fangshen" on it.
"What on earth are these painted skins doing? Was the skin of the Fangshen made by them, or is it a real thing?"
The painted skins' plan was beyond Zhou Yuan's imagination. He didn't think that the painted skins would offer a skin for no reason. This skin must have some magical power.
It is not difficult to verify the truth. This thing has a name and introduction like explosives, and it is likely to be included in the inventory.
As long as you enter Zhou Yuan's inventory and check the item description, you will naturally understand the secrets.
He thought so and did so.
Anyway, he was wearing the 【Painted Skin Rogue】 props, and the painted skins couldn't recognize him, so why would he be afraid of them chasing him?
He imitated the pilgrims, lit a few sandalwood sticks, bowed respectfully and worshipped, and while approaching to burn incense, he secretly touched the statue of the local god.
【Ding, get the skin of the prop workshop god】
After getting the item, Zhou Yuan turned around and left without even looking at the item information.
The people who were offering incense didn't notice anything, they just felt that the local god was a little stiffer and no longer had that lifelike illusion.
The 【Level 10 Painted Skin Temple Priest】 who was applying the Yin-accumulating Liquid on the back of the statue of the Fangshen felt something unusual. He looked at the sudden change of the Fangshen with great confusion.
Where did my huge "Skin of the God of War" go? How could it disappear in broad daylight?
"It's a thief! It's a thief! Someone stole the gold belt of the god of the temple."
【Level 10 Painted Skin Temple Priest】 was frightened, but he did not lose his mind. He only said the nickname and did not shout out the terrifying name "Skin of the Temple God".
"Who would steal even the gold belt of the monastery god? This world is so corrupt! And he's not afraid of the monastery god's blame."
"How dare this thief steal things right under our noses?
If we catch him, we will break his hands and feet and bring him before the lord of the temple to atone for his sins."
"Hey, isn't the golden belt still on the temple god? Could the temple keeper have made a mistake?"
Although the pilgrims were angry that someone was blaspheming the local god, they did not take it too seriously.
These days, there are many ruffians, beggars and pickpockets in the city. If someone is very poor, he or she may come to the temple to ask for money.
But I didn't expect that the thieves this time were so bold that they even stole things from the master of the temple. They were really bold.
Unlike the angry pilgrims, the 【Level 10 Painted Skin Temple Priest】 and the Painted Skins in the temple were very panicked.
Something big has happened. The "skin of the god of the village" has been lost. I'm afraid my mother will skin them alive.
What’s more important is that they didn’t find any clues, let alone identify the thief.
"What a sin! If you can steal something instantly and silently, why would you choose to steal something else? Why did you choose to steal that skin?"
"Mother is using her love to save her life. Without the artifact of the fangshen's skin, what else can contain father's destiny?"
