"Your sister Luo Yushang worked for His Royal Highness the Seventh before she came to the Demon Cave." Chiba stared at Wu Kuang's expression, "It seems that you don't know about this matter, so does Huo Xiyun know?" I guess I don't know...... It turns out that Huo Xiyun and His Royal Highness Seven also have secrets that they don't know each other. ”
Wu Kuang said weakly: "Lord, I have been in the Demon Cave for nearly twenty years, and I have been by your side for more than ten years...... A lot of things have changed, and they are not the same as they were then. ”
"Oh?" Chiba's voice was ethereal, "Wu Kuang, are you proving your loyalty to me?" It's as simple as that? The upper lip touches the lower lip, and I have to accept and believe that you will never betray me? ”
"As long as the Lord speaks up, whatever I am asked to do, I will do it."
Chiba sneered, "Sure enough, the temptation of life is so great that no matter how calm a person is, he can't hold on to it to the end." ”
Wu Kuang was a little pained when he heard this, "Lord, it's not like this......"
Chiba cut him off, "Okay, then I'll give you a chance to prove your loyalty." He stood up slowly, looking condescendingly at Wu Kuang's clenched fists, "Don't you care about Mo Chaoyun's life and death?" Then you go check it out. Now Huo Xiyun is stranded in the old palace in the capital of Beizhao Wang, but since he knows the demon cave, he will definitely be vigilant in the future, the current palace is comparable to the tiger's den in Longtan, Wu Kuang, do you have the courage to break through? Of course, if you are willing to confess to your old master, I can fulfill you. ”
"Venerable Lord, do you need me to bring Mo Chaoyun back?" Wu Kuang's voice regained its composure, and he looked up at Chiba with some kind of incomprehensible determination in his eyes.
"Take her back?" Chiba raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Huo Xiyun must be sad when he hears this, he doesn't know that his heart has changed, and he actually feels that the life in the Demon Cave is even more nostalgic than the previous palace." ”
Wu Kuang's face turned pale, he slowly lowered his head, and Chiba turned his back and stopped looking at him.

There was a mysterious fog at night, and it hadn't rained in recent days, so the fog was a little inexplicable, but someone took advantage of the fog and sneaked into the heavily guarded old palace. He was dressed in white, looming in the thick fog, and his figure shuttled like a ghost.
Because the fog was too thick, the palace only lined up sentry posts at each gate, and the patrol in the courtyard was changed every half an hour. At this moment, it was the gap after the changing of the guard, and Bai Xue's figure was like a ghost floating in the void, sliding down the corner of the corridor on the central roof.
He landed silently, then quickly dodged backwards, dodging a patrol of guards. When the group walked away, they just wanted to dodge out, but they saw a whip shadow like a rain hood, and at the same time as the white shadow dodged, a mountain knife came from behind, this knife was long and thick, and it was wielded by the knife bearer.
Under the front and back attacks, the white shadow could only dodge with false moves, retreating a foot to a foot, and before he could gain a firm foothold, another person joined the battle group, this person was extremely burly, standing there like a tall tower pressed down, and the weapon he waved in his hand was also a huge one, it was a halberd, the tip of the halberd opened four corners, and the blood groove was hidden in the body of the halberd with perfect streamlining, which made people feel frightened when they looked at it.
Bai Ying glanced at the halberd, sneered, and at the same time threw out a thing in his hand, which exploded in the air, and instantly sparks splashed, and the drifting fog seemed to solidify, not to mention seeing for a while, even breathing began to choke.
The white shadow took the opportunity to break through a gap, but the sword shadow appeared in the oblique stab. The wrist of the sword man was flipped, and the sword qi was swung down like a rainbow, and the back of the white shadow was a sword, but when he heard the ding, there seemed to be something invisible blocking the sword, and while the swordsman was stunned, the white shadow pointed like a hook and dug into the swordsman's eyes.
The swordsman could only retreat, but he avoided his eyes, and there was an extra scratch on his neck. There was an itch in his neck, and the swordsman scolded: "This evil demon is poisoned!" ”
Bai Ying ignored it, and then gave the swordsman another slap, still breaking through this gap.
The fog grew thicker and thicker, and the white shadow's footsteps became slower and slower. There was a deathly silence around, and there seemed to be no pursuers behind him. That's impossible! There were many people just now, and it was obviously an ambush that had been waiting for a long time, and there was no reason to retreat when they had the advantage.
Then there's only one possibility. White Shadow paused.
The gap was deliberately breached, because that was the direction they wanted him to go. Artificially blocking the rest of the way, there is only one way to retreat, and the so-called road to life must be full of traps.
Right under his feet, every step of the way.
In the thick fog, the creaking sound of each foot floating and becoming more and more obvious. White Shadow paused and frowned. The surrounding fog loomed, and at the moment when I could see the distance, a returning light pierced my eyes.
Bai Ying's heart sank, and a bad premonition prompted him to take a few quick steps, and with a wave of his hand, he was throwing on the wire net made of unknown things, and the burrs on the net scraped off a layer of shallow flesh, and he withdrew his hand, and the slightest wisp of pain came up, making him realize that in this thick fog, he had taken the initiative to walk into the net that the enemy had held for a long time.
"When leading troops into battle, I am never afraid of enemy troops who take advantage of the opportunity to attack when the weather is bad, do you know why?" A voice floated in the mist, like a ghost, "Because bad is fair to both sides, not only will our side be affected by the bad weather and make wrong judgments, but the enemy will too." ”
The voice got closer and closer to the wire mesh, but finally stopped, "Just like tonight's fog, it does seem like the best chance for a sneak attack, and if I were the enemy, I would choose to sneak in at this time that is easy to paralyze carelessness." But knowing that the enemy is coming, how can I not take precautions and let the enemy come and go as he pleases? That must not be possible, because I prefer to let the enemy have no return. ”
The moonlight shone a hazy glimmer through the gaps in the mist, shining on this forbidden place in the palace, and also on the face of the man who spoke. The person who came was thirty years old or older, his appearance was warm and soft, and he was full of elegance with a moon halo, his eyebrows were warm, but his eyes were sharp, staring at the white shadow behind the silk net, "Underestimating the enemy is deadly, whether you are a lone knight walking in the rivers and lakes, or a general in charge of the army, this is a bad habit, you say, Lord Mozun?" ”
Seeing that Bai Ying didn't move or speak, Huo Xiyun showed a strange smile, "It should be called this name, right?" Demons, Zun, Great, and Human ......" He repeated these words slowly and playfully, "I heard that the Demon Venerable is in a very high position in the Demon Cave, I thought it would be a three-headed and six-armed monster, and I was worried that my small palace would be razed to the ground by you, but fortunately, rumors are rumors, but rumors cannot be believed in the future." ”
The white shadow ignored Huo Xiyun, looking around for something. Huo Xiyun watched his every move with interest, and said after a while: "No need to look for it, there is no exit, this silk mesh made of special materials looks soft but full of toughness, not to mention that you are unarmed, even if you have a sharp weapon, it is useless." From you are within ten feet of this kind of silk web, they are as magical as spider silk, as long as the prey is caught, it will shrink by itself, imprisoning the prey in between, the top of the head, the feet are also, as far as the eye can see, I advise you not to bother to escape...... Oh yes, I gave this wire net a name, and it's called the Heaven and Earth Net. ”
The white shadow stopped, he hung his head and didn't speak, looking dejected.
"Lord Demon Venerable, we should have met in Madame Yuhua's Mansion that day, but I want to confirm that you are not the person I met that day, you raise your head."
Bai Ying didn't seem to hear Huo Xiyun's words at all, he lowered his head and didn't move.
The swordsman who had just been caught behind Huo Xiyun said angrily: "You evil demon, the king of the county is talking to you, do you understand the rules!" ”
Bai Ying suddenly slammed the wire net, and the wire mesh swayed, making a continuous sound like an iron pin, but Bai Ying's hand splattered blood immediately after, and the bright red color hung on the wire mesh, slowly moistening a piece of red.
Huo Xiyun looked at the bloodstains, "I said, it's useless, why bother to test yourself and get hurt?" ”
Bai Ying finally sneered, "What King Huo Jun said is really interesting, as if I am willing to be caught without getting hurt." He pointed as he spoke, "This location should be pre-chosen, easy to attack and defend, and convenient for setting up ambushes." There is an ambush archer behind the low eaves on the left, two archers behind the canopy on the right, one under the left veranda, and one next to the flower bed on the right. ”
Huo Xiyun narrowed his eyes when he heard this, but Yan Bei behind him said angrily: "Thief, our county king has benevolence in his heart, and he can't bear to kill evil cult villains like you, but you speak so viciously to each other and spray people with blood, which is really hateful." ”
Bai Ying snorted coldly, and sneered at each other: "Look at this weapon in your hand, it must be specialized in doing things like the yin people behind the scenes, such as giving people a look like this when your own people are defenseless." ”
"You!" Yan Bei was almost angry to death by this evil demon, he hummed his luck on the spot, but he didn't rush forward immediately, because Huo Xiyun stopped him, "This is what Chaoyun said to you?" ”
"Do you still need her?" Bai Ying seemed to think it was funny, "Such a big wound, I have eyes, I can't see it myself?" ”
"Whore! Not only do you do bad things, but you are also obscene and shameless! Yan Bei was so angry that he wanted to scold again, but he was glared at by Huo Xiyun and reluctantly stopped.
Bai Ying didn't give up, "Strange, do you know me?" Are we acquainted? Did I rob your wife, or did I insult your sister? How do you know I'm shameless? I also said that you are greedy for money and lustful, do you admit it? ”
