Chapter 11: A False Alarm (2)
The garden in the dark night has a different scenery, if it is an ordinary person may be extremely difficult to enjoy the quiet, but Yu Huanxi is happy to indulge in such a unique mood.
She stretched her sleeves slightly, raised her beautiful face, and let the breeze comb her messy hair, but Tao Taoran was slightly drunk, but her back was cold, as if she had been hit by some heavy object.
As soon as she was in pain, she turned around.
"......" The person who came was also stumbling, and when he stabilized his body and raised his eyes to look, there was a momentary surprise, "Queen Niangniang?" Qingyuan's lips opened to swallow an egg, "Why are you here!"
However, when he said this, he obviously ignored his presence at the moment, and it seemed that it was not so appropriate.
Leng Buding saw this reckless little Taoist priest, and he subconsciously frowned and sneered: "Hey, it's obvious that you hit me, why did you ask me first......?"
"Ugh. Qingyuan scratched his head and hurriedly explained, "No, no, no, Poor Dao is afraid that Niangniang is in danger, and it is so late." He calmed down, "Just now when I was meditating and practicing, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a strong demonic aura in the air, so I chased it out, not wanting to follow all the way here, but the demonic aura disappeared, but it collided with the queen mother." Then he thought of something, and hurriedly saluted with his hands, and his cheeks were suddenly flushed.
"Are there monsters?" Phantom Xi deliberately made a look of surprise, and softly took a few steps closer to Qingyuan's side, "Oh, I'm so scared of ......" She frowned, like a trembling flower branch. But there was a clear perverse smile in Yingying's eyes.
Seeing this, the flush on his face turned red to his neck, and he hurriedly let go of his body to the side, and raised his hand to protect Phantom Xi's body, with a firm face: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Queen Mother, there is me!"
Phantom Xi was originally pretending, but seeing that he took it seriously, he felt bored: "Okay." She walked around to Qingyuan again, frowning and wondering, "It's so late, why are you still in the palace?"
Listening to her question, Qing Yuanshi realized how out of place he was. ...... in the middle of the night Thinking of this, he was afraid that Phantom Xi would misunderstand what bad intentions he had, so he hurriedly explained: "Back to the queen mother, since the poor Dao met His Majesty, he has obtained permission to settle down in a clean courtyard in the imperial palace, so as to facilitate the general capital to supervise and solve the case at any time. ”
Although Qingyuan's cultivation is still shallow, the apprentices brought out by the Fahua Daoist will not be far behind. Since he entered the palace on the day he was beaten, he had noticed something unusual, and he always felt that there was a demonic aura in the air. And this demonic aura is thick and faint, and it seems that it can be controlled by the demon itself, which shows that its mana is not low.
It seems that the Eastern Liao Kingdom is not only not peaceful outside the palace, but also in this palace...... He made this idea clear to the king, and the king took advantage of the situation to approve his Charlie's case.
In fact, from the king's expression and tone, Qingyuan can see that the king of Eastern Liao does not believe in demons and evil theories. Or maybe the king didn't take evil at all, and the king disdained it.
This king is ruthless and fierce, and no demon can get into his eyes. The reason why the Emperor's Charlie case was posted was nothing more than to prevaricate the old ministers above the court who had lost an old face and looked like they were bitter and worried about the country and the people.
However, putting aside the theory of demons and evils, strange cases do occur from time to time, and it is better for more people to investigate from multiple aspects.
Hearing Qingyuan's explanation, Phantom Xi was relieved, and before he could speak, he heard a muffled sound of "gurgling".
"What's the sound?" she snapped.
"Huh. Qingyuan covered his stomach and smiled embarrassedly, "I'...... The stomach is barking. Because he wants to meditate and practice, he has not eaten since after noon until now, so he has exhausted his physical strength to chase that demonic energy, so it is strange that he is not hungry.
Phantom Xi stagnated for a few seconds, and suddenly reacted, raised his sleeves to cover his mouth and smiled: "Why don't you go to the palace for some supper?"
"No, no, no......" Qingyuan hurriedly excused himself, and his face and neck were even more flushed, "This is not good, not good." How can the poor road be ...... at this time? Disturb the Queen's mother!"
His honest and frightened appearance was very cute in his eyes, and he suddenly had a touch of playfulness in his heart: "Could it be that you don't want to listen to your belly sing all night like this?"
With a burst of unknown floral fragrance that broke into his nose, a not-so-glorious thought suddenly cleared the clouds in Qingyuan's heart: "Actually, ......" He stood with his arms crossed, and after thinking for a moment, he looked at Phantom Xi with a rather mysterious eye, and lowered his voice weakly, "If the queen agrees to keep it secret for me, then I can't solve this current problem." "Yes, his master is a famous old urchin from the Lotus Dao!
The night light hit Qingyuan's clear face, and his clear eyes seemed to be shining with clean and simple stars. This gaze is so kind, so innocent, that it seems a little dazzling to Phantom.
Linglong's heart didn't move, she actually followed a momentary inexplicable trance, and soon came back to her senses, her lips hooked a honey smile, and her tone was sweet and arbitrary: "Okay! But ......" The tone was lengthy and prolonged, and her face was raised, "As a benefit, you also have to set aside a copy for the palace!"
