Chapter 97 Perfect Plan

"It's really strange, it's so strange! Why does the shopkeeper only recognize gold coins but not gems? Is there no reason for the old patriarch to lie?" Xiao is still entangled. He really can't figure out why the owner doesn't want those gems.

"Well, human beings naturally have human rules. Once they set the rules, it will be difficult to change them." Although Locke said this, he was smiling secretly in his heart.

Why did you say that? It turns out that they are all ghosts from Locke.

It's not that the shopkeeper doesn't know the gems, and the gems are indeed real treasures. Isn't their value enough to pay for that table? It's more than enough to buy the whole town. However, those gems turned into ordinary stones in the eyes of the shopkeeper, because Locke applied a blindfold. The shopkeeper could calmly explain to the xiao because he had a good temper. He talked to the xiao so patiently, which had given him a lot of face. If Xiao meets a shopkeeper with a bad temper, it's no wonder that he is not scolded and is sick.

So, why did Locke do this? Is he really willing to wash the dishes for human beings? Of course not. Naturally, he has a reason to do so. Since he met Qiu Bai yesterday and caused Xiao to be injured, Locke has left too many puzzles in his heart. Instead of dying, the hill named Will ran away, which left a great hidden danger for the croach. And he hurt the wrong person. The man named Micah was injured by himself. Will his people come to revenge? And today, who is the man who suddenly appeared in the town and dressed in white? Does his appearance in this town have anything to do with the man named Micah? Also, Qiu Bai said that they were cursed by God. Which god did they curse? Can the curse be lifted?

Locke wanted to solve these puzzles, but he was really worried about having a xiao around him. Fortunately, I only met one Qiu Bai last night, and I happened to be by Xiao's side. Xiao was injured and I was able to save him in time. Once he was not around, what would happen if he met Qiu Bai? Locke couldn't even think about it. Xiao is still a child, and his ability can't compete with Qiu Bai at all, and it's no wonder that the old patriarch refused to let him out.

At the same time, Locke also has a feeling that he always feels that the abandoned church may be a hiding place for Cooper, and they are likely to appear in this town. Therefore, he came up with such a way. He wanted to find a place to settle down first, so that it would be easier for him to act.

And all this is still in the dark, so it also leads him to doubt the stories of the old patriarch.

"Hey, don't be lazy!"

An angry voice interrupted the conversation between the two people. Locke and Xiao stood up in a hurry. It turned out to be the shopkeeper. He thought the two teenagers would be lazy, so he secretly inspected them.

"Have you finished washing the dishes?" The shopkeeper asked.

"It's finished. It's all washed. One has fallen. Please ask the shopkeeper to check it." Locke said hurriedly.

The shopkeeper looked at the two people in front of him, with a puzzled look on his face, because he saw that the hands of the two teenagers were white and had not stained with water and oil at all. They actually said that they had finished washing the dishes.

The owner opened the cupboard. When he saw the neatly arranged dishes that were almost polished, he was so happy that his mouth almost closed.

"Well, it's good. Do it well. If you do it well, I will pay you. Keep washing." The shopkeeper got up and left.

Xiao spit out his tongue at the back of the shopkeeper and made a grimace. The two sat down again and were about to continue chatting.

"Hi, hello!" A crisp female voice came.

Locke looked up and saw that it should be a girl. She held a tray in her hand and a plate full of half a person high on it, which blocked the girl tightly. Therefore, Locke did not see the girl's face clearly. However, listening to the voice should be a girl.

"Come on, I'll help you." Xiao also recognized that it was the girl's voice. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the tray over. However, he was too anxious, and it was the first time he saw a girl. His heart pounded and he failed. "Blah" and those dishes fell to the floor and fell to pieces.

The two teenagers saw an extremely beautiful face. The girl has a pair of brown eyes, which are already very big. Because of panic, her eyes are wider. The two long eyelashes trembled sharply, and the slightly thick lips also trembled. The girl was scared.

"Oh, my God! It's all broken, and I'll be fired! Whoo-hoo..." The girl cried loudly.

The corpion stood there at a loss. It was the first time he saw a human girl, and the girl was still so beautiful. In an instant, he forgot that he was a monster and just stared at the girl's face.

"What's broken? Isn't this good? If you don't believe it, you can see." Locke comforted the girl. He secretly cast spells, and the broken dishes were intact again. They all lay in the basin.

The girl stopped crying and stared at the basin. Then, she looked at the tray in her hand and looked at the floor: there was nothing on the floor.

However, he clearly heard the sound and saw the fragments on the ground. What's going on? Are your eyes dazzled? The girl rubbed her eyes, looked at the two teenagers, and went out doubtfully.

"Hey, are you stupid?" Locke stretched out his palm and shook it in front of Xiao's eyes. He said anxiously, "What kind of nymphomaniac?"

Xiao swallowed a mouthful of water, closed his mouth like a goose egg, and said, "Brother, this girl is so beautiful!"

"You haven't seen a beautiful woman, have you? It's much more beautiful than her!"

"Oh, I don't believe it!" Xiao curled his lips.

Soon, the girl came in with a large pile of dishes. This time, the xiao didn't dare to pick it up. He was afraid to break the plate again and scare the girl. Locke took over the dishes. In fact, his hands did not touch the greasy and dirty dishes at all. He just made a gesture of reaching out and still across the air, so the dishes rolled into the basin again.

"You wash so fast!" The girl wiped the sweat on her face and said, because she saw that there was nothing in the previous basin.

"Ah, we have been washing dishes since childhood." Xiao said hurriedly.

"Yes, yes, we have been washing for many years. Practice makes perfect." Locke smiled.

"But what do you use to wash it?" The girl looked at the two people strangely and said, because she saw that their hands were not even a drop of water at all, and they were white and clean.

"Ah, we don't have to wash it by hand." Xiao said in a hurry, because he found that the girl was looking at his hand, so he was very nervous.

Locke hurriedly stepped on Xiao's foot and gave him a wink. He was telling Xiao: Stop it, the more you say, the more you leak your pocket. You don't need to wash it by hand. Are you washing it with your feet?

"Ah, ah, that's it. We wash it with gloves." Xiao smiled strangely and said that there was an extra pair of gloves on his originally white palms.

The girl rubbed her eyes and thought: It's unbelievable. Her hands are obviously very white. Why did she suddenly have a pair of gloves? And it's still cyan.

"Strange, so strange!" The girl said to herself and finally turned around and went out.

"Cluck..." Xiao couldn't help laughing. In fact, his hand was not a glove at all, but his deformed claw.

"Don't play anymore. It will be very troublesome for humans to see it." Locke said anxiously, worried that if he was discovered by human beings, he could not stay any longer, and his plan would be ruined.

"Let's wash it." Locke said.

"Why don't you wash it? I'll take the wind at the door." Xiao doesn't want to touch those greasy and dirty things.

Rock, I don't want to touch it. What should I do? He started to think. Yes! Suddenly, a flash of inspiration, Locke came up with a solution. He put a boundary at the door, and the two sat at the door, only responsible for picking up the bowl.

Soon, the girl came with another pile of bowls. She felt strange to see two teenagers sitting at the door talking instead of washing dishes by the basin.

"Why don't you wash it?"

"Ah, we have finished washing." Locke said.

"Why so fast?" The girl showed doubt again.

"It's not that we wash quickly, but that there are too many dishes today. Are there many guests today? Why are there so many dishes? Locke asked. In fact, he is nonsense. How can he wash many bowls quickly? It should be washed slowly. However, he said a lot, like a tongue twister, and the girl didn't react.

"Well, today, the restaurant was wrapped by the count. I heard that the count's dead daughter, Miss Mary, was resurrected. As soon as the count was happy, he invited the whole town to dinner, so there were a lot of dishes today. Then thank you for your hard work. I'm going to be busy and can't chat with you.

The girl turned around and went out. Xiao is still staring at the girl's back in a daze.

What? Did the dead come back to life? A ominous premonition flashed through Locke's heart. Because he was a death, he knew that if a person died, his soul would be guided to the underworld by Hermes, be judged by the three judges of Minos, Ladamantis and Aikos, and then divide the list of the dead into good and evil according to what he did during his life, and was finally determined to be sent to Elysee Paradise or hell. . If the dead person is resurrected, there is only one reason, that is, his soul was forcibly pulled back to the mortal world by external forces before entering the underworld. There are many kinds of external forces. In addition to their own 'blood soul beads', they also have the divine power. If God doesn't want human beings to die, they will naturally send their souls back. However, usually gods do not do this, because the divine world has the rules of the divine world, and those who violate the rules will be punished. In addition, there are witchcraft or evil spirits, usually those evil mage with super spells, who have the ability to resurrect the dead.

Who can bring the dead Miss Mary back to life? Locke was lost in thought and decided to go out to inquire tonight.
