Volume 1 Huangquan December, Chapter 118: Borrowing from the Deaf
The candle on the table was clearly extinguished.
She Ji pointed at the corpse on the table and said nothing. Before, it was still alive, with skin like gelatin, warm and soft. But now, without the protection of spiritual power, the corpse has begun to stiffen at low temperatures, and it is not far away from decay.
long time.
"There is obviously snow ink in her room." The other man gritted his teeth, "But how come there is no letter on her body?!"
She Ji calmly rolled up her forehead and said leisurely:
"Maybe they were taken away a long time ago. But they will come back."
They will always come back.
The man's voice was stern: "Then it's too late. We can't let her see anything. What should we do? Continue to entrust Zuo Zhenmen? Unfortunately, I can't trust them now."
"Don't ask me." She Ji smiled, "Don't you have the final say here? Show some signs."
"...There is no other way. Then tell them and continue to investigate. They should be responsible for this mistake."
After that, he shook his green clothes and prepared to leave the room with a cold face.
"Yes, yes...wait a minute," he called to him, "What to do with the body?"
"...you can eat it."
She Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and raised the corners of his mouth, as if he had gotten the ideal answer. But he still said this:
"Tsk, I don't have any comradeship from the past. After all, I grew up with you. How cold-blooded."
He felt unhappy being called cold-blooded by a cold-blooded animal. Besides, he knew that his answer was what the other party expected.
"Didn't you teach me that?"
"Well...you studied very well."
One candle is extinguished, while the other's candle is still burning.
In the teahouse under the eaves, several people have not yet rested.
At that critical moment, Mu Wan held up an umbrella and used Ye Yinlu's demon power to block them. The power of this umbrella alone was not enough. At the same time, Xun also opened the barrier, and then
They survived.
But at this moment, Mu Wan had already fallen asleep, and the little guy tried his best to change back to his original shape. Shan Hai carefully placed it next to Mu Wan's pillow. Shi Wuqi leaned against the door, glanced inside the room, and then looked
A glance at Duan Yuesheng's room door. The door was ajar, and Dai Luan was listening to Duan Yuesheng's talk of joy and wonder. Wu Qi waved to Shan Hai, signaling him to come out as soon as possible.
Before the two returned to the house, Shanhai shouted to Dailuan, asking her to go back and rest early.
"Okay. It's getting late, you should go to bed early." Duan Yuesheng added hesitantly, "...take care of her."
Dai Luan walked to the door and rolled her eyes at him, as if to say, "Do you still need to tell me?"
Shanhai closed the door and kept mumbling without stopping.
"We won't be able to go to Xueyan Valley for a while. Lord Jiyue said that they won't leave for the time being, but I don't know if they can be of any help. We are... a little bit behind in terms of strength. Maybe we can make up for it strategically. We have no plans during the day today.
, it’s too chaotic, she’s still in an emotional state, which is inevitable. Wait until tomorrow...are you listening?"
Shanhai looked at Shi Wuqi, who was dazed.
"Ah...I" he came back to his senses, "I'm listening."
"Yes... you are listening. I am asking, what are you thinking about?"
"regret."
"……Um?"
Shan Hai didn't know whether Shi Wuqi meant that he regretted following them all the way and what happened to them, or that she regretted not being able to save Qing Gui so that Mu Wan could feel better.
Until now, Taoist Master Lin cannot claim that he fully understands the Master of Hundred Skeletons.
What's more, he doesn't even understand himself.
Shi Wuqi took out a small pill: "Do you recognize this?"
"This is... the Resurrection Pill? You actually have this." Shan Hai was surprised.
"In the first seven days, it is useful for people to eat it. I hesitated before, wondering whether I should give it to Yan Muxue... You know, this can only make people wake up for a while and say something, but it can't really bring them back to life.
.But for Mu Wan, it should be enough. At least...she can know the answer she wants and have time to say goodbye."
Now, she doesn't even have the chance to say goodbye to the body.
"Are you regretting...not being able to make a decision before the body was stolen?"
"Um."
After getting the affirmative answer, Shan Hai didn't know what to say. After saying it, Wu Qi felt a little relaxed. He said as calmly as possible:
"I hate myself for being so hesitant. I thought I had seven days to think about it. Consider...whether it's worth it."
"So, have you thought about it?"
"Okay, it's late."
"It's okay, it's not your fault," Shan Hai said softly, "You always have your own plans, but I believe in you. You really don't have this obligation, but you can make this consideration... How should I put it, I want to thank you on her behalf.
."
Shi Wuqi laughed.
"Don't thank me, it's not worth it. But... I'm sorry."
"...I can't forgive you for her."
"I know."
The night passed so long, so long that I felt so many layers of regret.
The night passed so briefly that it was too short to let go of the pile of regrets.
It's finally dawn.
Hazuki-kun is a person who can sort out her emotions very quickly. When she was a youkai, she already knew how long the time she had was compared to humans. In such a long time, there was enough time for her to slowly digest it.
But when you know it will all be let go, the length of time becomes irrelevant.
Her friendship with Qinggui didn't last too long. From the first moment they met, she knew the origin of Qinggui. Now, she may become a real ghost. Ye Yuejun is not sure what kind of mood she has
If she left with too much resentment, she must find the mask tied with red satin and overcome it, so as not to leave any further trouble.
Furthermore, it is for commemoration.
Early in the morning, a few people were sitting downstairs drinking hot tea. Mr. Shi knew a little bit about tea ceremony, but now, he just felt it was boring and just a pinch of bitter water. The others didn't say anything and just drank.
Cha. Aluan rubbed his eyes, hung Xun with one hand as if holding a pillow, and staggered down the stairs.
Lord Jiyue said to them: "I discussed it with Mu Ranyanlai, and after learning that you were going to Xueyan Valley, she offered to help you go back."
"Mr. Ye Yue is kind-hearted, and I am very grateful. But, how can you help us?" Shan Hai asked.
"I originally thought that she could dispatch a group of birds to help you. But Xueyan Valley is in the far northwest of Wule City, and the birds all go south to spend the winter. This method doesn't work. After thinking about it, we decided to use Huangquan Bell.
Escort you through the six spiritual veins."
Shi Wuqi frowned slightly: "Isn't it a bit risky?"
"Our two bells can keep the four of you safe."
"What about me? What about me?"
Duan Yuesheng asked excitedly, and Shi Wuqi rolled his eyes at him: "Are you not going back to the escort agency?"
"I was born to like extraordinary things. What's more, I broke three swords, but they are all related to you - but I, Mr. Duan, have a lot, and I don't care about you. This kid surnamed Tang will not care about it.
"Go. But I'm not good at finding people. If I follow you, I might be able to catch some clues." Then, his voice became softer, "And I heard that the water and soil of Xueyan Valley support people, and there are so many beauties, maybe...hehe."
As expected of you. The three of you slandered me.
"Oh, why are you rolling your eyes at me? I've reached the age where I should be asking for a wife. You guys are not good at it. Besides the four of us, there are three more upstairs!"
Shan Hai and Ji Yuejun looked at each other, and the latter quickly realized that he did not know the identity of Miss Qi's body. He cleared his throat and said seriously:
"What she said...I'm not sure. After all, this bell has only been used to escort strangers. But the two bells combined may still have some power. As for Duan Shaoxia..."
Shi Wuqi patted him on the shoulder: "I'll leave that boy named Tang to you. You're an escort, so you have a wide path. Come on, we believe in you, you can do it."
"...I can do whatever it takes, but I can't!"
"Men shouldn't say they can't do it."
"Hey, do you feel bad if you don't fuck with me?"
"Shanhai, what are they talking about?"
"Ignore them. Go call Liangqiu and see how she is doing. If she recovers a little, tell her the good news."
Dai Luan nodded obediently, holding the long Xun with both arms. It was still asleep, but its tail was dragging to the ground. She ran upstairs, and Xun's two calves were also thumping on the steps.
All the way.
The four people fell silent and sighed in varying degrees.
But not long after they calmed down, a scream came from upstairs. The voice was obviously A Luan's, and they all straightened up as if they were electrocuted. She suddenly rushed back, seemingly unharmed, which was a relief.
But she looked very awake and frightened, as if she had seen some terrible scene.
"Two of them - no, gone!"
"Miss Liangqiu is missing?!" Duan Yuesheng screamed.
"No, it's... the letter is missing! The house was in such a mess, she was still asleep and couldn't wake up!" She stumbled and said, "The two female assassins, the house and my medicine box were turned over -
—They jumped through the window and ran away, but I heard Qingxian asking her to take the letter!"
Xun had already opened his eyes, expressed dissatisfaction with Aluan's strength, struggled violently, and finally managed to escape from her arms. He rushed downstairs, sniffed around, and suddenly ran away across the room.
"I'll chase him!"
Jiyue Jun seemed to have seen all this, and quickly stood up and rushed upstairs. Duan Yuesheng also turned over the table, strode to follow, turned around and shouted to them: "I will chase you too, take care of the two girls!"
When Xun was still in the form of a lone weasel, he had four short legs but ran very fast. Lord Jiyue and Duan Yuesheng were not slow either.
Yue Sheng did indeed see two agile figures, one green and one pink. In front of a tall building, they suddenly split into two groups and ran to the left and right.
Duan Yuesheng said to Lord Jiyue:
"I heard that the one in pink is Qingzhan, and the one in green is Qingxian; one mouth can't speak, and the other can't hear. Since those words were said by Qingxian, the letter should be with the girl in pink and white. Take your time
Run, I'm going to be one step ahead of you!"
"Duan Shaoxia, wait!"
"time does not wait!"
After saying that, Duan Yuesheng quickened the speed of his feet, one step at a time, almost flying briskly. He stared at Qingzhan's back and chased her with red eyes. But the girl's body was too light and nimble, and the distance between them was too small.
He was quickly pulled away. In terms of explosive power, he had always been somewhat confident in himself, but running like this was really too much. There was a big tree on the wall in front of him. He suddenly had an idea, pulled out the half-broken knife, and threw it with all his strength.
.
The girl in pink clothes had just ran across the tree, but the hem of her clothes was nailed tightly to the trunk. In order to facilitate movement, the material of the clothes was very strong, so she was pulled back, her legs turned, and she fell to the wall.
"Ah!" She shouted subconsciously because of the pain.
"I asked you to run, but you can't run away now -"
Duan Yuesheng slowed down and moved forward. But the moment he looked at the girl, he realized something was not right from her cold eyes.
