Chapter 20: Clever Words
Chapter 20: Clever Prevarication
Gong Yujin grabbed Mu Qing's wrist and hugged her into her arms again, as if she was a little reluctant, but she didn't say it. If it had been before, how could he have been so wronged. If it weren't for the Demon King's Scepter, he wouldn't have had to stay in this world.
"I really don't want you to go, when I go back, my husband will compensate you well. ”
Gong Yujin muttered, kissed Mu Qing's hair gently, and even if she was reluctant, she let Mu Qingli leave.
Mu Qing hurriedly opened the door, and Yu Xi was already standing on the edge of the door, bowing respectfully, and called softly: "Madam!"
"You're from the Demon Realm?"
Mu Qing wondered in her heart, the demon world was in the enchantment, who could get out, but in this world, how could Gong Yujin have any subordinates.
"Mrs. Hui's words, under is the breath of the demon world, the demon king Taoyao's subordinates. ”
He replied respectfully, he didn't find anything special in Mu Qing, except for beauty, nothing else.
"Leprechaun?"
Mu Qing thought in her heart, said a few words casually, and left. In fact, as soon as she said this, Mu Qing remembered the doubts in her heart that day, Tao Yao is also a person from the demon world, how did she come to the demon world?
Maybe Mu Qing is too sensitive, and there are still many things that she is not used to. But this really made her think a lot more, about Tao Yao's affairs, and the things of the demon world.
Mu Qing thought about it and went downstairs, the woman at the door just now was already respectful to her. After all, this is where Gong Yujin is hiding, and Mu Qing chose to go out of the side door, avoiding the sight of the crowd. And just now Gong Yujin mentioned a few words, and she realized that this is the so-called place of fireworks in the world, which is really a bit inconvenient.
By the time Mu Qing came out, the twilight had completely fallen. The sky was thousands of miles away from me, and a few stars hung lonely in the sky, looking a little desolate. Tonight, because there is no moon, it is extremely dim, and the demon is just that Yunjing Villa has not given any answer, so there are fewer people on the street at night.
If there were, there were only a few who hurried through and had to come out.
Mu Qing's time in Cloud City is not very long, and she spends most of her time in Yunjing Villa, so there must be some places that she is not used to. Where was the agreed place, it was dark, and she didn't even have anyone to ask for directions.
"It's dry, watch out for the candles!"
As night fell, the voices of the older men were not desolate. Mu Qing watched the old man come over slowly, and was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward.
"Old man, I would like to ask which direction this gate should go. ”
The old man looked up at Mu Qing, his godless eyes bulged slightly, and his body was extremely thin, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.
"From here, go straight ahead, turn right and head south. But girl, now that there are monsters in this cloud city, it's better to find an inn to stay in the middle of the night, and don't come out. Out of the city, the people of Yunjing Villa can't control it, and it will be even more dangerous. According to the government, near the nearest city gate, many dried corpses that had been dead for a long time were found. ”
The old man said, his voice trembling a little more unconsciously.
"Aren't you afraid, old man, why are you still walking outside? ”
"Girl, the old man has always made a living by fighting, and his life is also for a living. Otherwise, there are monsters in this city, who dares to come out at night. ”
The old man sighed, and seemed very embarrassed. Although the situation in Cloud City is not very eye-catching, it is still enough to cause a lot of panic. He was really scared, but there was nothing he could do.
Mu Qing smiled a little embarrassed, it seemed that the panic in Cloud City really couldn't be underestimated. I think about the last time I went out, it was still very lively.
The night deepened a little, and the occasional whimper of a feral cat could be heard. When the old man heard this, he shivered unconsciously.
"Girl, the old man still won't tell you more, after walking a few streets, you can go back, and the old woman is still waiting for me at home. ”
Thinking of his family, the corners of the old man's mouth couldn't help but raise a smile, the family is poor, and a happy life is already his greatest sustenance.
Mu Qing nodded, watching the thin figure go farther and farther, and couldn't help but sigh a little more. What exactly does this Cao Ran's subordinates want to do, so hurting heaven and reason, persecuting human beings, and achieving the goal of cultivation, aren't they afraid that they will do too much evil and the heavenly court will be angry?
If Cao Ran's subordinates all cultivate like this, with such a crooked and evil way, I am afraid that they can still cultivate any evil arts, and it will be very difficult to deal with them. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have been in the demon poison last time, and I didn't even imagine that it would be so serious.
For Cao Ran, now I don't have any information at hand, so there is really no way.
Although demon slaying is really a matter of Yunjing Villa, Cao Ran's subordinates are eyeing the fragments, and there will definitely be a time when they will make their own moves in the future. Mu Qing was not in a hurry, so she still saw Shangguan Jingnan first, and they were talking, while making the people of Yunjing Villa suspicious of something.
What Mu Qing can do now is to make the greatest use of the resources of Yunjing Villa, while she is helpless here and can't do anything.
By the time Mu Qing stumbled to the agreed place, Shangguan Jingnan and them had long since disappeared. Maybe it's because you don't want to wait, so you go back?
But Mu Qing thought about it, Shangguan Jingnan didn't seem to be the kind of person who could leave herself, maybe it was really because the task was more important, but what should she do now, whether to leave, or continue to wait here. In the night, Mu Qing couldn't see the road ahead clearly, where Yunjing Villa was, she might not be able to find it.
Thinking about it, she decided to look for it while walking. If it really doesn't work, I will go back to Gong Yujin for the night. After all, Mu Qing thought that the two of them would be separated for a while, and she was not very comfortable.
I don't know what the road is for, walking on the street, Mu Qing always feels that the road is getting darker and darker, and sometimes, she can't even see the road under her feet clearly. Could it be that something is really going to happen, how can there be a red situation?
Thinking about it, there was a sighing sound in the alley around me, and this kind of voice that sounded very penetrating.
Mu Qing looked into the empty alley, and couldn't help but wonder, and when she hesitated whether she should go in to see what was going on, there was a scream from inside the alley. Mu Qing was shocked, and she couldn't care about anything else, so she hurriedly ran in, wanting to see what was going on. Is it like what the old man said, the demon came out to harm people.
