Chapter 427: There is no evidence, but there is no two-in-one
"It's just a competition, but in three days, I agreed. ”
Call.
Hearing her agree, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, I also secretly winked at Shangguan Xian'er.
At that moment, Shangguan Xian'er opened her mouth, as if she had something to say to me, but she was worried about the red witch next to her, so she still held back.
Relaxed, I smiled and complimented the Red Witch: "The seniors are really open-minded, tolerant and generous, and they are very grateful to be able to give the younger generations this opportunity." ”
The Red Witch waved her hand, as if she had no interest in my sycophancy, frowned, and couldn't wait to say: "Don't talk nonsense, what do you want to compete in the first game tonight?"
I groaned, deliberately pretending to be very entangled, scratched my head, and then said politely: "The seniors are the elders, what is the comparison of this first game, it is still up to the seniors to decide." ”
Anyway, I didn't think about winning this first game, no matter what he compared, I don't care anymore, I just want for a while, Shangguan Xian'er and I can leave safely.
Seeing that I pushed this decision on herself, the Red Witch was stunned, then looked at me in a complicated manner, and then a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
I was uncomfortable with her, and Shangguan Xian'er next to me was also a little worried, and looked at the two of us very nervously.
After a full few dozen seconds, the Red Witch spoke: "Okay, this first game, let's compare the strength of cultivators. ”
it!
Seriously, I can never forget my mood at that time, the whole person was stunned, looking at the Red Witch blankly, and after the Red Witch said this, she also looked at me with a sly face, and between her eyebrows, there was an indescribable arrogance.
Nima, that's a bit shameless.
How many levels are you? Don't you have any points in your heart? Compared with my junior who is less than thirty levels of cultivation, I really don't know how she is embarrassed to say it. I'm so drunk.
Suddenly, I was stunned, my mind was clouded, and I didn't know how many times I scolded her, but I didn't dare to show it on my face.
And Shangguan Xian'er was also stunned, it seemed that she didn't expect that the Red Witch would shamelessly propose such a competition, and she was stunned, her face showed a trace of displeasure, and she was about to protest, but at that moment, I secretly gave her a look and stopped her.
"The strength of the seniors is unfathomable, the juniors are convinced, this one doesn't need to be compared, the juniors admit defeat. After giving Shangguan Xian'er a look, I looked at the Red Witch with a smile and said in a very flattering tone.
However, in my heart, there was a curse of hatred: Nima, you are a man or a man, a woman or a woman, wait for me, one day you fall into my hands, see how I fix you.
"Hehe, it's very simple to admit defeat. Hearing my words, the Red Witch looked at me with a smile, and then turned her head to look at Shangguan Xian'er: "This first game, you lost, tomorrow night, at this time, let's continue the second game, or this time, I will wait for you here." ”
After saying this, she leaned behind her back, looked at the night sky in the distance, and said in a low tone, "Let's go." ”
Her tone was very indifferent and conceited, and she was not worried at all about whether she would come back tomorrow after we left.
Hearing this, I didn't care how confident she was, so I hurriedly responded, and pulled Shangguan Xian'er, who was still stunned, and walked towards the bottom of the hill as if she was fleeing.
At that moment, being pulled by my hand, Shangguan Xian'er seemed to be a little resistant, and at the same time, his eyes also turned to the broken corpses of the dead black-robed man, revealing a trace of reluctance. But in the end, I forced me to leave.
When I went down the hill, I used my spare eyes from time to time to look behind me, and saw that the red witch had been standing quietly, without the intention of chasing, I exhaled, but I never let my guard down in my heart.
Until we arrived at the place where Shangguan Xian'er's car stayed, Shangguan Xian'er and I quickly got into the car, and then Shangguan Xian'er drove it and left quickly.
Ten minutes later, when I arrived at Shangguan Xian'er's private villa, I sat on the sofa in the hall, thinking about what I had just experienced, and I still had some palpitations.
Nima, almost, almost killed herself by the Red Witch like an ant.
And Shangguan Xian'er was also sitting opposite me, her eyes were red, as if she was still thinking about the master who died tragically, neither of us spoke, we were silent with each other, and there was incomparable silence in the hall.
I don't know how long I was silent, Shangguan Xian'er raised her eyes and looked at me: "Lin Bai, why are you there? You follow me?" When she said the last four words, Shangguan Xian'er looked at me with a complicated look in her eyes, and seemed to be very unhappy, but with a trace of gratitude. Because she knew she wouldn't have been able to come back if it hadn't been for me.
"I saw you leaving in a hurry, and I was a little worried, so I followed..." Under her gaze, I was embarrassed to lie, so I was embarrassed to tell the truth, and then without waiting for her to respond, I quickly changed the subject: "By the way, what's the matter with your master? And what you said at the time..."
I almost said all the questions in my heart.
Seeing that I mentioned the black-robed man, Shangguan Xian'er's face darkened, and her tone was also full of sadness: "Master was met by accident before I became famous, and Master saw that I had good qualifications, so he accepted me as an apprentice." ”
"At first, he didn't teach me the cultivation exercises, just taught me some simple meditation and qi training methods, and then I had the Holy Pill, and he began to teach me how to cultivate.."
Hearing this, I asked curiously, "You have followed your master and practiced the exercises for a few years, but you don't know his identity?"
Shangguan Xian'er shook her head and glanced at me: "Master never said, I didn't ask, but he was very good to me and took care of me, I didn't expect..."
It's a mixed feeling.
Seeing her like this, I sighed secretly and comforted a few words, Shangguan Xian'er was in a better mood, and then looked at me with red eyes: "Lin Bai, you said that the master deliberately taught me that kind of exercises, and also hid his identity, will he be using me?"
Nonsense, of course it's taking advantage of you.
Listening to her inquiry, I immediately muttered angrily in my heart, but seeing that she was very sad, I seemed to have forgotten the scene at that time, so I didn't say it, so as not to make her feel more uncomfortable.
After thinking about it, I looked at her and persuaded her seriously: "Don't be sad, people can't be resurrected after death, you also said, your master is very good to you, how can he use you? It's just that this kind of ascetic exercise he taught you is really..."
Saying this, my face was a little embarrassed, my tone slowed down, and I made an expression on my face that everyone understands.
"Hmm..." As soon as my voice fell, Shangguan Xian'er's face turned red all of a sudden, lowered her head, didn't look at me, and after a few seconds, she whispered: "I know what you mean, but..."
She didn't know how to explain it, and then looked at me with courage: "I don't know what's going on with me, maybe I've gotten used to it in the past few years, but... After I met you, I found myself different. ”
Seriously, at this moment, looking at her a little confused and a little charming, I couldn't say how excited I was, haha, what does this mean, it shows that I am very attractive, even a big star like Shangguan Xian'er, who has practiced the practice of abstinence, feels strange to me.
In this way, I am destined to have a lot of fate between her and me.
"Lin Bai.."
Just when I was secretly thinking about this, and my heart was extremely excited and proud, Shangguan Xian'er was also thinking about something, and then called me softly, I quickly eased up, and when I raised my eyes, I saw that Shangguan Xian'er's face was slightly red, with a kind of shyness, looked at me, lowered his head, and said softly: "Thank you just now, if it weren't for you, I really don't know what the result would be..."
I smiled: "Miss Shangguan is polite, you have said it, we are friends, and I should help you." ”
Saying this, while I felt comfortable, I thought of the thrilling scene before, and I was also afraid, Nima, at that time, my life was even hanging by a thread, my life was in the hands of the red witch, if it wasn't for my strong adaptability, I was afraid that I would be a corpse now!
Seeing me say this, Shangguan Xian'er smiled at me gratefully, but when her eyes met me, she seemed a little embarrassed, faintly revealing a little shyness.
Looking at her appearance, my heart suddenly fluttered, really, at that moment I suddenly had a feeling of love, and at the same time, my heart was more affirmative, at that time, Shangguan Xian'er did not agree to worship the Red Witch as a teacher, a small part of the reason was because the Red Witch killed her master, but more importantly, she saw my life and was threatened by the Red Witch. With a stubborn personality, she naturally would rather die than obey.
At this moment, it is not difficult for me to think that if I really died at that time, Shangguan Xian'er might really die with me.
The appearance is beautiful and gentle, and the personality is so stubborn and backbone, which really makes me like it more and more.
It's just that the exercises of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra she cultivated seem to be a little...
At this moment, I was thinking about these things in my heart, and Shangguan Xian'er also fell silent, as if thinking about what happened before.
After a few minutes, Shangguan Xian'er raised her eyes and looked at me, her tone revealing a hint of worry: "Lin Bai, you and that Red Witch have to compete in three games, and you have already lost one just now, what should you do with the next two?"
I knew she would ask this, so as soon as she finished speaking, I smiled and waved my hand and said, "You don't have to worry about this matter, I have a sense of proportion." ”
Seeing that I said it so easily, Shangguan Xian'er opened her mouth, and wanted to ask further, after all, this matter is related to her, if I lose, I will worship the Red Witch as a teacher, but seeing that I don't want to say more, and I look very confident, she held back and didn't ask any more.
Speaking of which, what plan do I have in mind? I proposed three games before, but it was just a temporary expedient measure, and at that time, I just wanted to leave safely with Shangguan Xian'er, and the next two games, whether they were compared or not, it didn't matter to me.
Anyway, I'm going to be back to Lehua City soon, and I won't be here for a few days. Big deal, tomorrow during the day, after writing the second song for Shangguan Xian'er, I will leave quietly. When the time comes, the Red Witch can't find me, and she won't take the liberty of looking for trouble with Shangguan Xian'er, after all, the Red Witch is a powerful existence, and she is more conceited, although this matter is related to Shangguan Xian'er, but the competition is a matter for the two of us.
As long as the three matches between us have not ended and no results have been made, Shangguan Xian'er is safe, in this case, I will naturally keep delaying, the longer the delay, the better, anyway, I just came to this continent, even if the Red Witch is very strong, it is difficult to find out my details on the Haolan Continent.
But I'm taking a big risk by doing this, I've already learned the Red Witch's ruthlessness before, if you don't see me the next day, you will definitely be very annoyed, but I can't help it, Nima, I'm a cultivator who hasn't reached level 30 yet, how can I compete with someone who is over level 60?
Seriously, I still have a headache when I think about it.
Originally, when I came to Lihuang Entertainment, I longed for all kinds of beauty, for example, being alone with Shangguan Xian'er, colliding with some wonderful sparks, meeting some other female stars in Lihuang Entertainment, and getting some other opportunities, anyway, all kinds of beauty.
The relationship with Shangguan Xian'er has made wonderful progress, but I never expected that I would provoke such a terrible existence as the Red Witch.
But no matter what, I've already provoked this Red Witch, so I can only take one step at a time.
Moreover, now that the Red Witch is in my heart, it is not the biggest problem, and the exercises practiced by Shangguan Xian'er at this moment are the things that give me the most headache.
If she continues to cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, her lust will be restricted, how will the development between me and her continue?
But we have just known each other, this kind of sensitive issue, I don't know how to say it, I can't be like the Red Witch, forcing her to disperse the internal force of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra in her body, right?
For a while, Shangguan Xian'er and I sat there, thinking about each other's own thoughts, and they were a little silent, and the hall was quiet, probably thinking of the master's death, before the two of us left in a hurry, the corpse of the black-robed man was not cleaned up, and he was threatened and forced by the Red Witch, so Shangguan Xian'er was very depressed.
And I, thinking about Shangguan Xian'er's exercises, my mood is also a little complicated.
After being silent for a few minutes, Shangguan Xian'er stood up, glanced at me, and said softly, "Lin Bai, it's not too early, you should rest early." ”
I nodded, sensing the sadness between her eyebrows, and said with relief: "You don't have to think too much, people can't be resurrected after death, I think your master is in the spirit of heaven, and I don't want to see you so depressed, although he hides his true identity from you, but he still cares about you in his heart." ”
Speaking of which, I would like to take the opportunity to mention her Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.
"yes, I see. However, hearing my consolation, before I could continue, Shangguan Xian'er smiled at me, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a trace of bitterness: "Thank you, Lin Bai." ”
After saying this, she nodded to me and went upstairs, and I stood there, opened my mouth, and tried to call her, but in the end I held back, shook my head and smiled bitterly, and followed along.
Shangguan Xian'er arranged a guest room for me on the second floor, next to her resting room.
Seriously, the moment I entered the room, I had the urge to persuade Shangguan Xian'er again, saying that it was to persuade her, but in fact, the real purpose was to stay with her for a while, and then find an opportunity to talk to her about the Jade Maiden's Heart Sutra, after all, there are many opportunities to meet in the future like Shangguan Xian'er, for the development of our relationship, I don't want to be silent like this, but thinking that she is in a low mood now, I still can't help it.
After entering the room, I lay on the soft bed on all fours, smelling the faint fragrance in the room, I thought crookedly: Did Shangguan Xian'er sleep in this room?
Then I thought of Ling Luo again, this woman doesn't know what happened, but since Shangguan Xian'er has arranged a place for her, there shouldn't be much of a problem. Perhaps, this woman is now more comfortable than me.
I thought about it for a while, looked at the sky outside the window, there were still a few hours before dawn, I just sat there cross-legged, practiced for a while, and after cultivating, I lay down and rested.
However, at this moment, on the side of the Xuanzi Continent.
Under the secret order of the male emperor, Xiang Aotian, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, launched his secret power and conducted a secret inspection in the palace.
The people who were secretly inspected, in addition to Tang Zegong, Lin Yi and others who were left in the palace with me at that time, as well as the two palace maids who had served me, Lianxiang and Lianyu, as well as the eunuchs and palace maids of Yunle Palace, as well as Princess Yunle, and any guards who had a relationship with me...
Among these people, Gongsun Lingyu has become the main object of supervision.
At this moment, the night is slowly falling, after conducting a large-scale secret investigation, Xiang Aotian locked his eyes tightly on Gongsun Lingyu, and at this moment, taking advantage of the night, Xiang Aotian hurriedly went to the Yangde Hall and met the empress.
"Subordinate Xiang Aotian, see Your Majesty!" After entering the Yangde Palace, seeing that there was only one male emperor, Xiang Aotian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knelt on the ground, and said respectfully.
The empress was half-lying on the soft couch, dressed in a casual golden robe, hearing Xiang Aotian's words, his eyes narrowed slightly, slowly opened, and looked at Xiang Aotian, his tone was very flat, but there was a compelling coercion: "What's wrong?
"Yes. The emperor didn't mean to be polite, Xiang Aotian knelt there, where did he dare to get up? He lowered his head and responded respectfully: "My subordinates have found it out, when Lin Bai was still in the palace, he had a good relationship with him, Tang Zegong, Lin Yi, basically those disciples of the sect who were left by His Majesty at the beginning, but Tang Zegong and Lin Yi had no idea about Lin Bai's hidden identity, they had gone out to drink flower wine together before, but Lin Bai always used Ye Yintian's identity. ”
Hearing this response, the empress seemed very dissatisfied, and her brows furrowed.
And at this time, Xiang Aotian changed his words and said in a firm tone: "And the only person who knows that Ye Yintian is Lin Bai is the woman that His Majesty appreciated the most before, Gongsun Lingyu." ”
Suddenly, hearing this, the empress's face became gloomy, and he did not speak, but gestured to Aotian to continue.
"Gongsun Lingyu is the most proud disciple of Ouyang Jingtian of the Blood River Gate, and the only female disciple, so Gongsun Lingyu has a very high status in the Blood River Gate, before Lin Bai escaped the death penalty, it should be Gongsun Lingyu secretly helped, and after that, Lin Bai re-entered the palace as Ye Yintian, which was also specially arranged by Gongsun Lingyu, because Ye Yintian entered the palace as a disciple of the Blood River Gate, there is no doubt about this.. Gongsun Lingyu is inseparable. ”
"In addition, on the night of his subordinates, when the Praetorian Guards were sent to search for Lin Bai's traces in the entire imperial city, someone saw that Gongsun Lingyu had left the palace, and then returned to the palace before dawn, and this point in time was basically the same as the time when Lin Bai escaped from the imperial city. ”
"So the subordinates guessed that Lin Bai escaped from the imperial city at that time, and he was also helped by Gongsun Lingyu, and..."
Speaking of this, Xiang Aotian paused, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked up a trace of coldness, and said with certainty: "And, but when Lin Bai was still in the Qinglou, his subordinates arranged for the deputy commander of the guards, looking for an opportunity to subdue Lin Bai in one fell swoop, the situation at that time, even if Lin Bai was vigilant, but if he faced the guards one-on-one, he had no chance to escape from the Qinglou, but he succeeded, so his subordinates guessed that it was with the help of Gongsun Lingyu that Lin Bai was able to leave the imperial city quietly under the noses of many Praetorian Guards..."
After saying this at this moment, Xiang Aotian quietly looked at the empress, waiting for his response.
At this moment, the empress's face became even more gloomy, and he did not respond directly, but frowned and fell silent.
Suddenly, in the entire Yangde Palace, the atmosphere was extremely heavy.
After a full two minutes, the empress took a deep breath, raised his hand to signal to Aotian to get up, and then snorted coldly, with irrepressible anger: "This Gongsun Lingyu, she really betrayed me... It's in vain that I think so much of her."
Speaking of which, when Lin Bai appeared in the palace as Ye Yintian before, the male emperor doubted Gongsun Lingyu's loyalty, but at that time, the male emperor only felt a little abnormal about some of Gongsun Lingyu's actions, and there was no conclusive evidence, so although the male emperor was suspicious, he didn't believe that Gongsun Lingyu would really betray him.
In addition, after the end of this Xuanzi Sword Discussion, the male emperor left ten participating disciples, and all of them were canonized, in the heart of the male emperor, these ten participating disciples who were left behind, all had high expectations, among them, Lin Bai's status was the highest, but because of the problem of style, the male emperor had to punish him to show the majesty of the royal family.
But after killing Lin Bai, the result was also felt by the empress, as soon as Lin Bai died, Tang Zegong and Lin Yi, as well as Gongsun Lingyu, in addition to being difficult to hurt their hearts, they were also a little uneasy about the empress in their hearts, and even their loyalty was a little shaken.
In this case, the empress decided to appease Tang Zegong, Lin Yi, and Gongsun Lingyu, let them know that he was still a saint and was still very sympathetic to his subordinates, so at first he felt that Gongsun Lingyu was a little wrong, but the empress didn't pay much attention to it, and the empress also turned a blind eye to the gossip that others talked about Gongsun Lingyu.
However, after hearing Xiang Aotian say these things at this moment, the empress suddenly woke up, and at the same time, Shengyan was furious.
At this moment, the male emperor never thought that when he turned a blind eye, Gongsun Lingyu secretly let Lin Bai go.
Under the anger, the empress's face became extremely embarrassed, and finally looked at Xiang Aotian tightly, and asked in a deep voice: "What you said is speculation, or is there enough evidence?"
