138 Life hangs by a thread
There is no moonlight at night, and the breeze is cold
Qing'er held a lantern in her hand, the candlelight was dim, and the stone path was confused, she was close behind Qing'er, for fear that one would accidentally not keep up with the candlelight, and they passed through a back garden, and the distant scenery could not be seen really, but there were clusters of black rose petals looming in the distance, and the fragrance was fragrant, full of mysterious temptations, such as him who fought with the beast last night and he who saved her life with a word
They made her feel familiar but unable to remember
Suddenly, there were many footsteps, Qing'er pulled her to avoid one side in time, bowed to one side, and saluted, and after a while, I saw about twenty or seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls, all plain-faced, white-dressed, long-dressed, bowed their heads, silently trained, and lined up in front of them, without a little wind, leaving only a gust of aftertaste, pure and elegant, as if they were isolated from the world and unstained
After they walked by, Qing'er pulled the light feather along the way they came, and soon saw a huge Qing Pond, the huge stone carving by the side of the pool was clearly printed with the words "Si Nu Pool", the water mist in the pool was filled, and the residual temperature of the residual flowers floated for the rest, and the four walls were high-walled, and the sandalwood burner was located in the corner of the wall, and the smoke coiled out, and the fragrance was monotonous, adding a little loneliness
"Sister, hurry up, we don't have much time," Qing'er said as she undressed and brought into the pool to show joy
In Xianyu Mountain, a huge Tianchi is also exclusive to her, here and now, even a bathing place has to be stolen, Qingyu shook his head helplessly, but he did not dare to slack off, and immediately entered the pool, Qing'er will enjoy the water of this hot spring, and dived under the water to have fun, she is not accustomed to water, can only bubble shallowly, wash away the long hair and mud
"Why are you still in the water?" suddenly came a gentle female voice
She was so frightened that she turned around and saw a woman in white standing not far away, but Sixteen Flowers had a pure face and a pair of big eyes looking at her in confusion
"I, my Ling'er," she was so anxious that she reported her family's name
The woman's face changed slightly, and she suddenly heard another woman's voice coming from outside the wall: "Linglan can be found?"
"Found it," she hurriedly turned and ran out
Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and saw that Qing'er was already fully dressed, and said nervously: "I have to go"
She had no choice but to jump out of the water, wipe off the water, change into the clean gray dress, the tone was gray and inconspicuous, and then followed Qing'er back to the wing
"Girl, just wait, when the time is ripe, someone will come to pick up the girl," Qing'er finished explaining and left on her own
She didn't know when they were supposed to be, and she felt that she had to know her surroundings in order to act or protect herself, so she took advantage of the night to transform into a flying insect and cautiously walk through the temple
After a few days of observation, although there are many guards in the palace and pavilions, most of them are mortals, and the naked eye and mortals often can't see her tricks, so her flying insect body is more bold and leisurely through the deep palace, because the flying insect body is extremely small, the whole palace has become huge, and after a few days, she can only get acquainted with some nearby corridors, and she can't get any useful information
That day, she continued to investigate secretly, but she flew desperately for a long time, so tired that she almost foamed at the mouth, and she didn't see half of the figure, she looked around to find a place to stay, and it happened that there was a set of tea sets on the stone table not far away, and there was still half a cup of tea left in a few purple sand cups
She was overjoyed and hurried over to drink the life-saving water until the worm's belly was slightly bulging, and she hiccuped at the end
"Poof, this little worm actually dares to steal my tea under my nose"
Suddenly, a woman chuckled, she slipped her feet in fright, and fell directly into the tea, the woman picked up the cup and shook it from side to side, watching her rise and fall in the tea, and a few chuckles
"Sister, get ready"
She was dazed in the tea, and this cry saved her life in time, and the woman immediately put down the teacup in her hand, put away the laughter, and she crawled to the edge of the cup with great difficulty, and almost fell back in fright
At this moment, she saw that the woman's face was extremely beautiful, her eyes were soft and charming, her red lips were lightly dyed, her skin was as smooth as a newborn, as if it was broken at a touch, and the three layers of color inside and outside the pale red satin dress were from deep and shallow, and the carvings were beautiful and elegant, at this time, she was lying on her side by the stone table, focusing on a book in her hand, and the two maids behind her held a feather fan to shade her from the sun and send wind
The man walking slowly in the distance, his thick eyebrows were like sword qi, Yu was extraordinary, his thin lips were smiling, and he was extremely cold, he was dressed in black, tightly wrapped in gold lines, around his neck, and around his waist with a black jade belt, a unique scene, dark but not decadent, like a black rose under the moon, with dew and bewitching beings, but the stinger was hidden
In the cup, she looked at his figure from afar, but she didn't dare to look into his eyes
He should be their king, and according to legend, no one in the world dares to look at him
He paused in the distance, hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards the woman, who could almost hear her nervous heartbeat, or her own
"When the sun is blazing, you'd better go back to the house early," he said in a calm but commanding tone
"Thank you, for your concern," said the woman, smiling, and speaking in a cheerful tone
He casually flipped over a teacup, poured half a cup of tea, drank it all, poured the cup of water, brought a gust of wind and almost blew the light feather off the tea again, her six thin feet clasped the smooth cup and didn't dare to breathe along the air, the cockroach climbing posture was indescribably ugly
When he put the cup down, he raised his index finger slightly, and the two black-clothed guards behind him immediately flashed behind the maid, and before they could snort, they fell into a pool of blood, and the woman fell to her knees with a thud, trembling with fear, and her voice was silent, and the light feather had already weakened her legs, and fell into the tea again
"In the future, drinking tea will still be in the hall, suitable for this outdoor flying insects, disturbing the fragrance of tea," he picked up the half of the cold tea and poured it into the jungle and turned away
Although she is a mortal, she has two gods and ancestors, and Qing Yu believes that only gods can see through demons and monsters, but she is also mortal flesh and blood, even if she doesn't perceive her body, lying in the weeds, she keeps telling herself that this is just an accident, and the two unjustly killed maids have nothing to do with her
He is controlled by the demonic nature, the slightest disobedience to the natural demonic nature, don't expect half of the affection, and she almost lost her life, and in the end, she couldn't even see the face of their king
She lay in the grass in the posture of an insect until it was dark and there was no sound, and she crawled out in her original form to find her way, and her feet were still a little trembling when she returned to the wing, after all, she had just come out of the world and saw such a bloody killing for the first time, and she couldn't escape the fear in her heart, and at this moment she just wanted to complete their task quickly and leave this place as soon as possible
"Stop," there was a loud shout behind her, so frightened that she was stunned in place and didn't dare to look back, after all, she was a bit of a thief
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the more I wanted to escape, the more I kept an eye on it
"Name," the woman saw that she had stopped honestly, and her voice softened
"Rei...... "She responded timidly......
"Ling'er" the other party repeated in a low voice, and then said to herself, "I can't control it, you come with me"
She didn't dare to cause trouble, thinking that in front of this woman, even if it was impossible to turn into a little worm and disappear in vain, it would alarm them, and then make a plan to escape when there were more people, and then she would not make much difference if there were more and less at that time, so she would not arouse suspicion, so she turned around and peeked at the other party, the woman's appearance was usually gorgeous, but she was afraid that it was not small, and at the same time, the woman also looked at her, presumably her gray dress had a very low status, the woman disdained words, turned around and hurried away, she had to bow her head and follow her
The woman's footsteps hurriedly quickly turned into a backyard, a burst of fragrance rushed to the face, like a flower and like the fragrance of tea, she couldn't help but take a deep breath, refresh herself, relieve a lot of pressure from the bottom of her heart with fear, dazzling to see the small pavilion horizontal sign engraved with the word "Qinyuan", it was originally a tea workshop in the back hall, thousands of kinds of tea leaves in the workshop, multiplied by all kinds of wooden boxes, placed on the shelves, all kinds of tea sets neatly arranged in the tray, the appearance is delicate and lovely, at a glance, you know that it is the best
"Ah Huan, put on Xuan'er's clothes, Ziyu and later, take her to the Holy Amaranth Palace," the woman finished ordering, turned to look at her, and said sternly, "The rule here is not to say much, otherwise we will all have to fall to the ground," and rushed out of the scene after speaking
Another woman ran over with a light green dress in her hand and said hurriedly, "Hurry up and change into the back room."
She had no choice but to change her dress in the back room, thinking: This Ling'er is really humble, and no one knows where she goes
When she returned to the tea house, the woman named Ah Huan hurriedly handed over a tray, on which the tea set was already complete, and six delicate small cups were neatly placed around the purple clay pot, and the pot was steaming, and the tea fragrance was all over the house
"What's the fuss, hurry up and follow Ziyu," Ah Huan slapped her on the shoulder
She hurriedly took the tray and followed the woman dressed not far away, and hurried away
"I heard your name is Ling'er"
Not far from the teahouse, Ziyu asked unexpectedly, this palace is full of demonic atmosphere, lifeless, and there are not many people who take the initiative to speak for self-preservation, this is the conclusion she came to after several days of observation, this woman named Ziyu took the initiative to ask, but it made her feel surprised
She nodded hurriedly and then asked, "I'm not afraid that I won't be able to sleep when I drink tea in the middle of the night."
"You're new," Ziyu glanced at her with a sympathetic look in her eyes
She really didn't know that this Ling'er's identity was not easy to answer, so she could only smile vaguely, and Ziyu was also a seasoned person, so she didn't ask more
It turns out that this Qinyuan teahouse is connected to the front yard garden, but the backyard is connected with the holy amaranth hall in their mouths, Ziyu walks is the inner road leading to the palace, after the stone gate, there is only a smooth boulder paved passage, the magic flame hangs high, although it is the inner hall, but it also extends in all directions, there are many forks, she pays attention to the road all the way, for fear that she can't get out of this labyrinth when she turns back
"They won't tell you the truth," Ziyu suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice
"What the truth?" she wanted to ask
Ziyu only replied in a low voice: "You are careful when you arrive"
She was puzzled and was about to ask a few more words, when she suddenly heard a strange voice in her ears:
"Hurry up"
