Chapter 69: Recovery After the Rain
"We've found the man, my lord!"
Mu Ling asked hurriedly after hearing this, "Where is Xiaoyue?"
The woman in front of the guard was so flustered that she was startled.
"Where are the people now?"
"Back to the king in the underground palace, I'm afraid..."
"I'm afraid what's wrong?" Mu Ling was obviously a little anxious and confused.
"Mu Ling, don't worry, listen to what he has to say first. β
Mu Ling let go of her tightly clenched little hand and took a few steps back.
"Back to the king, the Xiaoyue you said is in the underground palace, I'm afraid it's no longer good, but she keeps calling a person's name out of her mouth... It seems to be called Mu Ling. β
When Mu Ling heard that the dungeon was like falling into the abyss at this moment, she somehow felt a sense of angina, "Xiaoyue..."
Mu Ling rushed out directly without thinking about it, the suffering of the dungeon had already been tried, and Xiaoyue was so petite that she couldn't bear it.
Mu Ling was very anxious, Bai Ye saw it in his eyes, and he hurriedly rushed up to block the direction in which Mu Ling was going.
"What are you doing, little mute?"
Mu Ling wanted to struggle out of the way blocked by Bai Ye, and was about to push away, only to hear a cold shout, "Do you know the way to go!"
Mu Ling's heart was shocked, and she came to her senses in an instant, and for a moment she felt like she was about to lose something.
Bai Ye grabbed Mu Ling, "Pull me, I'll take you." β
Mu Ling took the thick hand, and his heart suddenly felt much more relieved, Bai Ye said softly: "Do your best to run." β
Mu Ling felt that the surrounding scenery was driving towards the rear little by little, and the whole person became very flexible, and before he knew it, Mu Ling and Bai Ye had already arrived at the gate of the underground palace.
Bai Ye didn't want Mu Ling to step into the dungeon again, lest she remember the bad past. It can be seen that she looks like she is not giving up, and she is still not at ease, so she can only let her come.
After coming to the underground palace, several guards also rushed up, bowed down to guide, and before long, the two of them had already come to the place where Xiaoyue was being held.
Mu Ling looked at the cold stone slab, tears flowed out of her eyes, and her hoarse voice was full of sadness, "Xiaoyue..."
Mu Ling threw herself on the stone slab and cried.
"Mu Ling... It's noisy..."
"Satsuki! β
Mu Ling looked at her in a panic.
"Mu Ling... You're here..."Xiao Yue slowly opened her eyes, the blurred figure made her unable to see clearly, but she could hear that this was Mu Ling's voice, tears flooded her entire heart, hoarse and sad, with a little desolation, "Mu Ling... I miss you so much..."
"Me too. What's wrong with you, I'm covered in wounds. β
Mu Ling gently stroked Xiaoyue's wound in distress, the traces of the whipping were visible to the naked eye, and the flesh and blood were blurred.
"I miss you so much... I'm sorry...... Yes..."
The vision is getting blurred and blurred, like a white mist, Xiaoyue doesn't want to die like this, but her hand can't play, she wants to bypass those white fogs, she wants to hug Mu Ling, but unfortunately everything is unsatisfactory, the line of sight from the white fog to the darker and darker, the black can't see clearly, and then Mu Ling's voice gradually drifted away and disappeared!
"Xiaoyue !!" Mu Ling cried bitterly, and her clenched hand slowly fell.
Mu Ling stood up tremblingly, with sad tears hanging on her eyes, only to see the tears gradually flowing down her cheeks, falling on Xiaoyue's cold skin one by one, seeping in silently.
Mu Ling's trembling hand gently wiped away the tears, but the tears flowed endlessly. She didn't believe all this, she was fine before, and the sweet smile she had before seemed to be still in front of her.
Boom β
Thunder came from afar, and in an instant, the wind was fierce, and the rain rushed to the earth like a raging pack of wolves.
Mu Ling couldn't help it, looking at that cold body, Mu Ling subconsciously covered her mouth, she still couldn't believe it.
He turned and ran out, and a lightning bolt streaked across the sky, and the dazzling light seemed to tear the whole world apart. There was a faint sadness in the air.
The majestic rain soaked the whole clothes, Mu Ling ran with difficulty, a thunder roar, frightened her head blank for a while, fluttering, the rain on the marble mixed with dust poured into her body, the rain frightened more and more, and slapped fiercely on her body.
Mu Ling was very afraid of thunder, so she looked around and found a corner of the wall to squat with her head in her hands.
The moment Bai Ye saw Mu Ling running out, he hurriedly chased him out, no matter how Bai Ye shouted, Mu Ling didn't seem to be able to hear it.
Bai Ye looked up at the sky, it was impossible for rain to fall today, and just when he was surprised, Mu Ling fell to the ground.
Looking at Mu Ling crying and getting up, a thunder scared her and made her tremble and tremble.
Bai Ye conjured an oil-paper umbrella in his hand and walked lightly on the stagnant water.
After the oil-paper umbrella blocked the rain for Mu Ling, Bai Ye gradually squatted down, and gently held her waist with one hand.
Boom β
Mu Ling shrunk tightly, Bai Ye could see that Mu Ling was trembling all over, and almost at the same time, Bai Ye hugged Mu Ling tightly, covering her hands behind her ears. She was already soaking wet, and this thunderstorm came very strangely, as if it was like Mu Ling's mood at this time.
Xiao Yue's death hit her very hard, Mu Ling didn't seem to be happy since she left the Nine Heavens, everything didn't seem to be as good as she imagined, although the food, clothing, housing and transportation here were appropriate, but everything didn't seem to be so satisfactory.
In the Nine Heavens, she has a noble status, and the non-strength to be able to become friends with her is a noble status.
Being able to make friends in the world Mu Ling is already very content, even if Xiao Yue does something sorry for her, Mu Ling will forgive. Because she has always regarded Satsuki as a good friend in the world.
Except for the little mute, she has no other friends now.
The cold body became warmer and warmer under Bai Ye's arms, Bai Ye's body was already cold, he didn't dare to touch Mu Ling directly, so he directly relied on his meager demon power to cross some heat to warm her body.
Mu Ling snuggled tightly in Bai Ye's arms, like an injured child and a lost walker, getting the last trace of warmth.
After a while, Bai Ye found that the woman under him seemed to be asleep, so he picked up Mu Ling and let her fall into a deep sleep.
ββIn the dungeonββ
On the cold stone slab, Satsuki's body gradually changed, revealing a pale green light from the inside out, and finally gradually becoming transparent.
As soon as the tea was done, there was a small snake lying on the stone slab, but there were no disgusting spots on its body, just like an ordinary little snake, which made people look a little cute.
The little snake spit out the snake letter slightly, twisted its body and slid off the stone slab and crawled towards the outside of the underground palace.
After leaving the dungeon, the little snake walked directly towards Suiyu Garden. Through the rain, it allowed the snake to lap its body, and it still kept moving forward.
It seems to be very familiar with Suiyuyuan, as soon as it enters Suiyuyuan, it climbs directly to the treetops, looks at the door of Suiyuyuan, and seems to be waiting for someone.
Snakes are spiritual animals, they have cultivated since childhood, and the road to transform into a human form is very long, they will go through countless molts, and each molt will also experience very human endurance, molting is like peeling, only after molting will they grow.
For a young snake to transform into a human form and need to molt countless times, this journey is far longer and farther than that of other demon beasts.
The little snake in the treetops watched quietly, spitting out snake hyacinths from time to time, as if to discern some smell.
The thunder in the distance seems to have weakened somewhat, and the rain has gradually become lighter, it is no longer the heavy rain before, the little snake witnesses the process of the rain gradually stopping, everything in the world recovers after the rain, and young life is sprouting. Drops of rain slipped between the leaves, on the cold snakes, and finally on the soil, and into nothingness.
