When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 984 - 379: Micro City 2
So Li Xiu couldn't understand at all, and could only pretend to be deaf and mute, gesturing to the person that he couldn't hear or speak.
The person was quite persistent. Seeing that Li Xiu and A Fei couldn't understand his sign language, he gestured for them to wait a moment, and quickly ran into a nearby shop.
Li Xiu and A Fei wanted to take this opportunity to leave quickly, but the person was too fast. They had only taken a few steps when he returned to block their way again, holding paper and a pen.
A Fei knew what he wanted to do but could only look at Li Xiu for help. She hadn't systematically learned the Demon Text, and at most could only recognize a few common symbols.
Li Xiu gave her a reassuring look, as if to say, trust me with everything.
The person was quite deft, quickly writing a line of text, and then showed the paper to A Fei.
Li Xiu couldn't understand their spoken language, but he recognized the Demon Text. Although their usage might differ slightly from that of the Demon Kingdom, the general meaning was not too different. Li Xiu could deduce what the Micronian was writing based on the context.
A Fei could only look to Li Xiu, and Li Xiu's expression became somewhat strange.
Li Xiu hesitated for a moment, took the paper and pen from the person's hand, and then wrote a few words in the Demon Text.
He imitated the Micronian's writing style and habits, writing quite adeptly. In fact, if Li Xiu hadn't deliberately made some simple changes, he could have written exactly like the person.
The Micronian was surprised to see Li Xiu's Demon Text, looking back and forth between Li Xiu and A Fei, as if in disbelief, before taking the paper and pen again to write a few more lines.
A Fei could only watch helplessly from the side as the two communicated through writing, unable to do anything. This feeling was quite unpleasant, making A Fei feel as though she was an illiterate fool.
Of course, what A Fei cared about wasn't this; she was concerned that every time Li Xiu finished writing, the Micronian would look at her with increasingly odd eyes. It wasn't suspicion, but a kind of strange expression that A Fei had never experienced or seen before.
She really wanted to know what Li Xiu wrote, but unfortunately, the Demon Text was right in front of her and she couldn't understand it at all.
Li Xiu and the Micronian exchanged many words in writing. Eventually, the Micronian seemed to have a sudden realization, bowed to A Fei, gibbered a bunch of words, scratched his head, sighed deeply at A Fei, and then left. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
The person looked back every few steps, seemingly reluctant to leave, which made A Fei even more puzzled, not knowing what was going on.
She was burning with curiosity inside, but couldn't say anything, and could only continue walking with Li Xiu.
After passing through the city center, Li Xiu led A Fei down a narrow alley.
Strangely enough, even though it was close to the bustling city center, this alley was dilapidated and deserted. From the entrance to the end, not a single soul could be seen.
"This is it. The Divine Position Demon Spirit we are looking for is suppressed underneath that big house in front. We can enter from there," Li Xiu spoke in a low voice as they walked.
Even though there shouldn't be anyone here, it was still better to be cautious.
"What were you talking about with that person earlier?" A Fei was evidently still thinking about the earlier incident.
"He said you are very beautiful and have a good aura, and he wanted to invite you to become an idol star," Li Xiu said.
"Inviting a deaf-mute to become an idol star?" A Fei thought Li Xiu was spouting nonsense, looking at him with distrustful eyes.
"Yep, that's exactly what I told him, how can a deaf-mute become an idol star? Guess what he said?" Li Xiu said as he pushed the mansion's gate, finding it locked from the inside and unable to move.
"He's not going to say that I can live off my looks alone, just standing there doing nothing and still earn money, right?" A Fei said, curling her lips.
"You're really smart; that's almost exactly what he said. How could I believe such nonsense? Of course, I declined on your behalf, but he was truly sincere, definitely thought you were the one. You saw how he kept looking back when he left, that reluctant look. He was probably really taken with you," Li Xiu said.
A Fei frowned at Li Xiu. His words were indeed sound, but for some reason, she felt something was amiss. Li Xiu definitely wasn't telling the whole truth, at least some things were being hidden from her.
However, A Fei had no evidence, and considering the timing, she said nothing more.
A faint glow flashed from Li Xiu's finger, slipping through the gap in the door. He then gently pushed, and the locked door opened easily.
The courtyard inside was a mess, covered with thick dust. The stone tables and benches were toppled over, and several dead small trees were laden with dust, suggesting the courtyard had been abandoned for decades, without visitors.
After entering, Li Xiu quietly closed the door and then proceeded toward the main hall.
The door to the main hall was also closed. Li Xiu listened for any sound inside, and hearing none, he gave the door a gentle push.
He expected it to be locked, but to his surprise, the door opened with just a light push.
