Min Yue looked at her worriedly, and stopped talking. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info finally obediently lay beside her and said firmly: "No matter what, as long as it is Xiao Jiu's decision, my brother will help you achieve it." ”
Ruan Jiuwu didn't make a sound, just put the corner of the quilt on Minyue's body, and one person and one fox began to quietly close their eyes and recuperate.
When the day was about to dawn, she glanced at Min Yue, whose eyes were closed, and gently lifted the quilt, not wanting to wake him up, clinker She had just sat up, and there was a soft voice behind her.
"Xiao Jiu, can you take me with you when you go out today?"
"I'm not going out to play, wouldn't it be better for you to stay at home and eat eggs?"
"People have just detached themselves from you, and it's not used to not being with you every day! Bring your brother, people know medical skills and simple illusions, maybe they can help you! ”
Min Yue showed a pitiful look again, and kept putting gold on herself with her small mouth, eager to describe herself as omnipotent.
Ruan Jiuwu sighed, and secretly said in her heart that this little fox's sticky tricks were really endless, and she couldn't say half a word of refusal.
"Okay, but you are not allowed to take on a human form, so you can remain like a fox."
His appearance as a silver-haired boy is so bewitching that he will definitely be the object of discussion when he walks down the street. Lin Mansion will soon become the focus of the entire Gu An City, so she should try to keep a low profile at this time.
"Good!" Min Yue answered, and then jumped into her arms.
Ruan Jiuwu walked out of the bedroom with Min Yue in one hand and the black sword in the other. At this moment, there was a faint sound of conversation in the east, which sounded like it came from Ye Che's room.
Could it be that he's already back?
After a moment's hesitation, she raised her feet and walked towards the source of the sound, and the closer she got, the more she could hear the conversation in the room.
"Palace Master, this matter is really strange." It was a man who spoke, his voice was thin and cold, and he didn't sound like a green shadow.
Just as he was about to listen a little more, Ye Che's playful voice suddenly sounded.
"Hehe, you still learned to eavesdrop?"
Outside the door, she was startled, looked down, and pretended to be calm and walked in.
There were three people in the room, Ye Che sat on the upper seat, Qingying stood behind him, and on the side sat a man wearing a mask, the silver-gray mask covered most of his face, revealing only a pair of pale thin lips, and the hem of his clothes was also embroidered with a round and a half moon, the same size as Qingying's body.
After glancing at the masked man, Ruan Jiuwu looked away without a trace, and said to Ye Che: "I heard that you went out in an emergency last night, and I heard the sound of conversation, so I came to see you." ”
"You care about Hongu?" Ye Che looked at her deeply, and the corners of his mouth were hooked.
"I ......"
Her face was hot, and while racking her brains to think about words, she secretly sighed that she was out of words every time she saw Ye Che, and hugged Min Yue's arm and couldn't help but increase her strength.
"Hmph, I asked Xiao Jiu to carry me! I warn you, sir, I'm going out for a trip, don't hurt my chickens! Min Yue shouted loudly, the fox's mouth opened and closed, and finally did not forget to bare her teeth to demonstrate.
"Hehe, how could this palace deign to do something with a few hens, at most, it was 'accidental' to step on a few eggs." Ye Che chuckled, deliberately emphasizing the word "accidental", and the fox tail of the fox who was so angry that he stood up instantly.
The masked man's gaze drifted over, looking at this person thoughtfully, the corners of his bloodless lips rose slightly, and the aura around him became even colder.
Ruan Jiuwu frowned, feeling uncomfortable, so she covered Min Yue's mouth and said lightly, "Then let's go out first." ”
"Wait." Ye Che called out to her and ordered, "Qingying, you go with them." ”
"Yes!"
"No need, it's enough to have Min Yue with me!" She hurriedly refused, picked up Min Yue and hurriedly left the house.
Qingying looked at Ye Che hesitantly, and only after seeing him nod his head did he return to him to stand by.
Looking at Ruan Jiuwu's fleeing back, a cold light flashed in the masked man's cold eyes, and he said respectfully to Ye Che: "Palace Master, who is that girl?" ”
Ye Che didn't reply, but asked, "How did the hundred people in the palace die?" ”
Seeing that he didn't want to answer, the masked man didn't ask, and then replied: "All of them were tricked by illusions, and they took out their hearts and died, and each heart was missing a piece of flesh, as if someone had deliberately taken it away." ”
"It's illusion again!" Ye Che slapped his palm vigorously, and the sandalwood tea table beside him turned into powder in response.
"Oh? Could it be that the palace master has also encountered illusion recently? The masked man asked with concern.
"Hmm." Ye Che replied with a cold face and asked, "How is the situation in the palace now?" ”
"After yesterday's incident, Qingfeng has been dealing with funeral matters, but when he was overpowered, he found ......"
"Found what?"
The masked man hesitated and said, "I found that their souls were gone." ”
“……”
Ye Che's face was even more ugly, the cold air in the room had condensed into frost, and even Qingying couldn't help but shiver.
"Is Si Yu okay?" He asked coldly.
"The deputy palace master has already panicked, so he sent me to report it overnight."
"Murong, you go back to assist Qingfeng first, and I will personally return to the palace to preside over the funeral three days later." Ye Che sneered, "Dare to make a move on the Half Moon Palace, hehe......"
"Yes, the palace master can rest assured about the affairs in the palace, but the emotions of the deputy palace master are ...... I'm afraid there will be nothing that can be done about the subordinates. The masked man said.
Ye Che waved his hand and said, "It's okay, wait for me to go back and comfort her." ”
"Then the subordinates will leave to return to the palace immediately, and wait for the palace master to return to the palace in three days!"
The masked man stood up and saluted, his wide, dark red robe covering his emaciated body like a walking skeleton.
"Go ahead."
Receiving the answer, the masked man turned and left, the horse outside the gate had been waiting for a long time.
"Murong's light skills still haven't grown at all, and he still needs to ride a horse to and fro." Ye Che said lightly.
"The right envoy has been concentrating on studying poison techniques since he entered the palace, but he has made up for the lack of other exercises." Qingying replied respectfully behind him.
"Qingying, what do you think of the death of a hundred people?"
"My subordinates think that the mastermind behind this matter has a lot to do with the person who assassinated the palace master."
"Well, Hongu thinks so too." The chill in Ye Che's eyes deepened, and he asked, "Are there any news about the fox clans that appeared outside the city last time?" ”
"The subordinates are incompetent, and they haven't been found yet." Qingying clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "Please give me some more time, even if I search the Qinglan Continent, I will find them." ”
Qingying hated in his heart, if it wasn't for the pursuit of those fox clan people that day, he would not have left the moon and a person in the deserted house, and the tragedy that followed would not have happened.
"Qingying, you have followed the palace for many years, but your mood is still so impetuous."
"The subordinates are out of shape, please punish the palace master!" Qingying was slightly stunned, hurriedly walked in front of Ye Che, and knelt down to plead guilty.
