Sinmonger Chapter 10: Wizards?

Chapter Ten Wizards?

The time was night. After the Earl opened the door of the bookstore, it was a little brighter than the outside.

You can see that there are some strange things hanging high in several corners of the house. The luminous objects are cylindrical, the outside is a layer of paper material, the inside is hollow, and a candle is burning.

This bookstore should be a cross-shaped structure from top to bottom. There is not much space for people to walk. There are several tables joined together in the middle of the room. Each wall is basically occupied by bookshelves. The walls and the floor are full of books, all piled up in a disorderly manner.

Looking in, you can see that in the depths of the book forest, there is a well-crafted desk. Behind the desk sits a man, dressed in a black hooded robe. He is clearly in the room, and he is also wearing a hat He shook his head, covering most of his face.

The Count's first impression is that the guy in this costume is 80% a wizard or a heretic.

Tian Yi sat slumped on the chair, but did not put his feet up on the table. He was holding a black-covered book in his hand, and the cup in his hand was a strange-colored coffee-colored drink. Of course, there were no telephones and computers in this era. On the table was a bottle of ink, a quill, and some paper and books.

"I heard people say, can you help people solve the problem?" The Count walked to the table and asked tentatively.

Tian Yi raised his head slightly, glanced at the other party, then put down the book, tucked his hat behind his head, revealing his oriental face, the count's expression changed obviously, this was the first time he saw a yellow race, After being hit a lot, for a brief moment, he wondered if what he saw was a human being.

"Count Beauger, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Tianyi said in very standard Italian, he took the drink on the table, took a sip, made a comfortable "ah", and then pointed to the room The light source inside said: "Those are not magic lamps, they are called lanterns, from the far eastern continent." He pointed to the drink in his hand again; "This is not a mixture of bat feces and cat brains, but a kind of Drinks made from eastern African plants that have been ground into powder are refreshing and taste good.”

When the earl listened to his words, cold sweat broke down on his forehead, and he said to himself: How does he know what is in my mind? The magic lamp, bat poop, and cat brains all got it right!

"You can read minds, right? I've heard of this kind of sorcery, and you really are a sorcerer," said the Count.

"Hehe...whatever you want to say." Tianyi: "The more mysterious and powerful you imagine me, the more confidence you will have in me. If you think I'm just a liar playing some tricks , I would find it difficult."

The count thought for a while: "You already know who I am, wizard."

"My name is Tianyi." "" read his own name: "But I won't force you to call my name in a language you don't even know, you can call me the boss, but don't use the sorcerer. There are so many words, there are so many people in this place. You know, the Vatican is not far from here, and I don't want to be caught and burned like a skewer."

"Okay, boss, if you can use that mind-reading technique to guess my intentions, I'll consider talking to you." The earl's words are not leaking. There is no information left to speculate. People like him who put their head on the belt of his trousers can often develop the habit of being cautious in words and deeds.

Since ancient times, the "mind-reading" and "psychic" deceptions have been enduring for a long time. It can be said that it is an art of conversation. It is difficult to operate, but in the end, it is just a deception. People who understand are naturally very clear, as long as I don't give you hints and information, you can't play.

Taking mind reading as an example, the opening remark is usually this sentence: "What troubles have you been having recently?"

Nonsense, no worries or people? In short, most people will answer, yes.

Then look at the other party's reaction and clothing, whether there is a ring on the hand, or the trace of wearing a ring, etc., and then say something like: "Is it a relationship?"

After what he said, people who have no worries will immediately be led to think of many troubles. The more troubles they have, the more troubles they have. Without friends, they are social barriers.

Questions like this go on and on, make you think you're being mind-reading, but you're actually telling the exact information yourself.

Mind reading is such a thing. Generally speaking, it is also a technical industry. The key is to be observant, quick-witted, and quick to respond. It is best to add relatives in appearance and have a magnetic voice, then you can be on TV shows. .

But if you really meet someone who is looking for trouble, it's easy to play and smash, and two words can tear down your brand. The first answer: "Yeah", then the second: "I'm in love with a dog," and basically the game is over.

As the so-called 72 lines, deception is king, of course Tianyi can also play mind-reading tricks, but he usually doesn't need to play it, because he has the book of heart...

"You want to hide your treasure, but you can't find a safe and hidden place; the future of the Templars is uncertain, you exiled Grand Master has no real power at all, and not many people even know that you have taken over the Grand Regiment Long, even you yourself are not sure whether the procedure to get this position is legal; you feel that your life is always threatened~IndoMTL.com~The pursuers sent by Philip IV, the assassins who were bribed, some kind of organization that secretly coveted the treasure, Curses that cannot be explained by common sense, etc..." Tian Yi used a very relaxed tone to reveal all the worries of the other party, these things were like a mess in the earl's mind, but Tian Yi summed it up in an orderly manner.

In the earl's eyes, in addition to surprise, there was a lot of excitement: "You are really a master with extraordinary mana." His tone also changed.

Tian Yi's tone remains the same: "I can show you a way, but my service is not free."

"I understand, if you need gold and silver, I can take a third of the treasure..." The Count did not finish.

Tian Yi interrupted: "Money! Mr. Earl, money... money... money." He took a sip of his coffee: "What a vulgar word, many people think this word sounds so Beautiful, their eyes seemed to shine with silver and gold, but you and I both knew that wealth was a filthy curse, a poison from hell, a gust of wind that drove you Templars into the abyss of destruction." With frenzied eyes, he said very vigorously: "I don't want to get paid for this kind of thing."
