Chapter 33: Extinguish
As soon as the sky was hazy and shiny, Shixiang woke up, got up, got dressed, and the maid Yun'er came in with toiletries, and said with a smile:
"Master, you haven't come back after going out these days, Yun'er is really worried, I'm afraid that the eldest lady and the second lady will ask."
Shiruhua lifted her lips and smiled, but there were no words, Yun'er also knew that her master was dumb, so she said to herself:
"Master, you are not in these days, the eldest lady and Miss Luo are very close, and even the wind housekeeper seems to have a good relationship with Miss Luo." Yun'er felt a little uncomfortable, the poetry girl had been in the mansion for so long, and she hadn't seen the wind housekeeper run before and after the master Zhang Luo everything, but she didn't expect that Luo Wuyan had just entered the mansion on the first day, and the wind housekeeper was busy before and after, I don't know if it was ordered by the city lord.
Shiruhua didn't react when she heard the others, only Yun'er said that when the wind housekeeper and Luo Wuyan walked very closely, she was slightly stunned, in her impression, the wind housekeeper is a dispensable ornament, she doesn't help anywhere, she only obeys the orders of the city lord, and he is interested in any entanglement in the backyard of the mansion, but he didn't expect Luo Wuyan to break his previous attitude as soon as he entered the mansion, which is a bit interesting.
At this time, Biao Yu and Ji Li also came in, and when they saw that Shirutu had gotten up, they happily spoke:
"Miss Shi, if you don't come back, our sisters really want to go out to find you." Stunned and joking.
There was no defense against the picturesque poetry of the three sisters, so he smiled, glanced at Ji Li out of the corner of his eye, his eyes flashed, and when he saw that Granny Xiao had appeared at the door, he hurriedly greeted him, holding Granny Xiao's arm affectionately, and some coquettish transmission:
"Mother-in-law, I'm so happy to see you early in the morning."
Granny Xiao patted the back of her somewhat cold hand, stood up slightly straight, and her vicissitudes of life showed kindness and kindness:
"Girl, came back too late last night, don't you want to rest for a while?"
Shiruhua smiled and shook her head, the maid Yun'er knew Granny Xiao's status in the He Mansion, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and the others had only seen Granny Xiao once, and they didn't know that her status in the capital was second only to He Liyu herself, however, when she saw that Shiruhua was very close to Granny Xiao, she also stepped forward and bowed, Granny Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly, and a touch of contemplation flashed in her eyes:
"The three girls don't have to be so polite, you're friends with the girl, right?"
"If I go back to my mother-in-law, the lives of the three of them were saved by the poet girl, and I entered the house to repay the poet girl's life-saving grace." She replied respectfully, she felt very peaceful about Granny Xiao, unlike other human beings, who were indifferent to people thousands of miles away.
"Good, good, don't forget to report the picture, very good, girl, you have a good helper."
"Mother-in-law, I treat them as friends." The picturesque and playful transmission of the sound made Granny Xiao lose her mind for a moment, what a familiar sentence, thousands of years ago, she said the same, so naïve, so playful, unfortunately, things are people, I don't know if I can go back to the past.
Granny Xiao sighed silently in her heart, the whole person looked much older again, her waist bent a lot, and patted her little hand:
"Hurry up and wash up, go to the front hall to meet the city lord, you're busy today."
As soon as she heard that she could see He Liyu, she was very happy to see him, and hurriedly washed, and the others were really happy for her when they saw this, and they hurried to the reception hall in the front yard after finally finishing breakfast.
When Shiruhua brought Granny Xiao and the three of them to the hall, the eldest lady, the second lady and Luo Wuyan were already waiting for them, and the wind steward stood a few steps away from Luo Wuyan and stood with his head down.
In the second half of last night, He Liyu stayed in the second lady's room, a burst of clouds and rain, although the whole person felt groggy when he got up in the morning, but the second lady would not let go of the opportunity to show off her might, and she was even more smiling in the hall, and the whole person was particularly charming, enchanting, and looked happy from the inside out.
The light of his eyes turned and fell on the eldest lady, as a few people said, with a light veil on her head, only a pair of eyes were as calm as water, and she couldn't see any emotion, even the second lady who was proud of her turned a blind eye.
Shiruhua was a little surprised, raised her feet and walked into the hall, Granny Xiao followed closely, and the three of them waited outside like other maids.
Shiruhua just wanted to stand beside Luo Wuyan, but saw He Liyu raise his hand and signal her to step forward.
Walking up to him, he pulled him into the chair next to him and sat firmly, the smile of the second lady who was triumphant immediately froze on her face, and there was a flash of fire in her eyes, which was quickly hidden again, and replaced with a face that didn't care.
Sitting down picturesquely, her eyes fell on Luo Wuyan and never left, she felt very strange, very strange.
On Luo Wuyan's body, she didn't feel the slightest popularity, but there was a cold aura emanating from her, and her eyes were full of doubts, she knew that after He Liyu found the jade pendant, she would definitely inquire about Luo Wuyan, but she didn't know what the result was.
Originally, these were not what she cared about, but today, at the moment she saw Luo Wuyan, she clearly felt that Luo Wuyan was not a living person!
With a cold shock in his heart, he raised his eyes to look at He Liyu beside him, and saw that he was also staring at her quietly, with a faint smile on his lips.
"What, you're not feeling well?" He Liyun raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked lightly.
Shiruyi shook her head and looked away, she didn't want to affect the relationship with him because of someone who didn't matter.
This is a relationship that has been built with great difficulty!
Today, in his eyes, she saw a touch of gentleness that she had not seen before, although it was very light, but it also made her happy.
"I summoned you here today to tell you that from now on, the financial power in the capital will be transferred to Shiruhua's hands, and the eldest lady will assist you, and the wind steward, you will also be instructed, understand?"
"Yes, the old slave obeys!" The wind steward hurriedly lowered his head, and his heart was secretly shocked.
Luo Wuyan, who didn't react at all from beginning to end, slowly turned his stiff neck, Mu Ran's eyes fell quietly on Shi Ruhua's body, and his cold sunken eyes looked like a cat peeping out of a dark hole.
Shiru looked at her picturesquely, her eyebrows were slightly upturned, and she took it but would not dodge the gaze of Luo Wuyan.
"Then stand aside." He Liyu waved his hand indifferently, Shiruhua got up, and just wanted to walk away, but his little hand was held by He Liyu and attached to her ear, He Liyu smiled in a low voice and said softly:
"Wait for me in the study!"
Everyone present did not miss the action between them, the second lady hid her hands tightly in her water sleeves, stepped forward and said coquettishly:
"My lord, I was really tired of the concubine last night, and today I want to ask the wind steward to find a doctor for the concubine."
He Liyu's eyes were cold, and a touch of murderous intent quickly disappeared, and he said lightly:
"Steward Feng, since the second lady is unwell, arrange to stay in the eldest lady's dormitory tonight."
"Yes, sir!" The wind steward hurriedly responded and bowed and retreated to the door.
The second lady's face changed greatly, and she wanted to explain, but she was frightened by the indifference in He Liyu's eyes, gritted her silver teeth, didn't dare to play too much temper, and led the maid away unwillingly.
The eldest lady was pleasantly surprised when she heard that He Liyu was staying in the 'Yunxiang Garden' tonight, but when she thought of her appearance, her heart cooled again, and the panic that flashed in her exposed eyes was captured by the picturesque glance, and her heart was full of doubts.
"Concubines are waiting for you!" The eldest lady bowed, her eyebrows burning in her heart, no, she must find a way to change her appearance.
Seeing that everyone was gone, Shiruhua was about to leave, but he was hugged by He Liyu and did not let go, his powerful arms hugged her tightly, closer to the broad arms, Shiruhua raised her little face, and every time the big eyes that were annoying and sultry flickered, the long eyelashes that were slightly upturned jumped up and down in confusion, causing He Liyu's heartstrings to tremble.
"Don't worry too much about some things, I'll give you an explanation."
Shiru's picturesque eyes lit up, because He Liyu stayed overnight at the eldest lady, the originally depressed mood instantly soared, his arms naturally circled Heliyu's neck, blinked, licked his lips playfully, and slid his fragrant tongue like a drug that exuded a charming fragrance made He Liyu's heart beat faster, his rough fingers unconsciously stroked his lips, rubbed gently, the soft touch of the soles of his hands made him fascinated, his mouth was a little dry, his throat was a little tight, and the heat of his body deepened sharply, but when he thought of what he was going to do, he suppressed it to the extreme, and gently pushed away the poetry, touched the tip of her nose, and laughed in a low voice:
"Leprechaun!"
Shiru's face was hot, she glared at him coquettishly, and led Granny Xiao and Biao and others straight to the study.
After He Liyun saw her leave, with a wave of his water sleeve, the door of the hall closed gently, and the entire hall was instantly dark.
With a wave of his hand, the bookshelf in front of the wall automatically moved to the left, revealing a dark passage without any light.
He Liyu stepped in, and the bookshelf automatically moved back to block all the light.
Fingers linked, a few rays of starlight fell into the wall, and it was suddenly bright, He Liyu passed through the passage and came inside, the space was not large, only a few dozen square meters, and a cold ice bed was placed in the middle, and He Liyu flew up and sat cross-legged.
The two madness had already made him vigilant, and entering here today was to get rid of the dirt and impurities in his body, that is, another Heliyu.
At this time, behind the ice bed, a figure slowly emerged, the figure peeled out of the wall, standing beside He Liyu, the gray beard, snow-white hair all showed that the person was very old, but he was in good spirits, with a strong spirit and sharp eyes.
"Child, let the old man help you."
"No, Elder Xiao, this is the evil consequence of my own cause, and I must bear it myself." He Liyu categorically refused, and his cold eyes were resolute.
"Child, the old man has an old bone, the only thing he can do is to help you get rid of all the evil consequences, you should know that the old man's state of existence, he can't hurt me."
"No, Elder Xiao, when I chose this method to increase my strength, I knew that there would be such evil consequences, so Elder Xiao doesn't have to worry, I have my own way to deal with him."
"Okay, the old man listens to you, if you really can't do it, the old man will keep you safe even if he fights hard."
"Don't forget, Xiao Lao, you also want to meet the woman I like." Thinking of the picturesque poetry, He Liyu hooked his lips, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Xiao Lao was also happy, and he nodded and said with a smile:
"Okay, okay, the old man has been waiting for hundreds of years, and you have finally opened your mind."
He Liyu stopped talking, closed his eyes, and the whole person fell into precipitation!
Darkness, darkness in front of you, empty silence all around, so quiet that you can only hear your own breathing.
He Liyu stood in the middle of the darkness, a pair of eyes shining on the cold star, two curved eyebrows like paint, carrying his hands behind his back, and staring ahead.
Ahead, the darkness surged, like layers of Ling waves spreading, and slowly a figure appeared from inside, the same clothes and the same appearance, but the cold eyes were too cold and evil, and there was a trace of cunning, looking at He Liyu and smiling evilly, the laughter was piercing and sharp.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, and it's finally here."
He Liyun was silent, his eyes were as cold and hard as a knife, he raised his hand, and gently volleyed a little, and the surroundings around him on the opposite side suddenly floated, the darkness split, and a cyclone rose into the sky, and He Liyun on the opposite side was startled, took off, waved his sleeves, and screamed:
"He Liyu, I am you, you are me, destroy me, you will also be injured."
"Don't worry, I'll put you to good use." He Liyu said coldly, his knife-like eyes exuding cold sharpness, like the sparkling light of a lake, a little dazzling and heartbreaking.
The black robe unfolded, He Liyu volleyed into the air, his arms waved rapidly, and the layers of light waves rushed to the opposite side, the fire flashed in the darkness, and the 'pop' exploded, and the other He Liyu who was forced to retreat on the opposite side screamed, and his eyes flashed with cruelty:
"Heliyu, since you don't allow me to exist, then I will destroy you first, take possession of your body, and get everything." The green light in the eyes of another He Liyu appeared, and the whole person was instantly wrapped in black mist, and wisps of black mist rushed into his mouth quickly, and in an instant, the mana of his body skyrocketed, and he opened his mouth and roared, shaking in all directions, and a strong wave of light rushed towards He Liyu.
He Liyu's heart was slightly cold, he condensed the mana of his whole body, flew up in the air, and slammed into the opponent with a fist.
In the darkness, in the black fog, the two fought together, their bodies as fast as lightning, turning into a wisp of gunpowder and flickering through.
Finally, there was an earth-shattering loud bang 'boom', the two of them flew back in the air, their bodies shook again and again, He Liyu staggered back, his feet paused hard, a wisp of blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were even more indifferent, like an abyss, bottomless.
On the opposite side, his figure turned in the air a few times before he landed, his feet were soft, and he knelt on one knee on the other side, stretched out his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, the evil light flashed his eyes, bared his teeth, and smiled:
"You can't fight me!"
"Really?" He Liyu snorted coldly, his five fingers moved, changing the technique, wisps of white light shuttled between his five fingers, his face changed suddenly when he knelt on one knee, his hand suddenly touched his chest, and his eyes showed unprecedented horror.
In the chest, the heart was beating outward, making a 'bang bang bang' sound, as He Liyun's five fingers flicked, the white light rotated and accelerated, and the opposite heart also beat faster and faster, and he smashed his fist into the heart on the opposite side, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and the blood mist spread in the darkness, all of which poured into the white light that swirled between He Liqi's five fingers.
"Heliyu, you, you actually treated me like this!" On the other side, he screamed in horror, his eyes full of despair.
"I raised you to achieve me! I wanted to stay a few more days, but unfortunately, you were too impatient and tried to control me, and you couldn't tolerate it! He Liyun said coldly, the flicking five fingers suddenly clenched together, the white light was flourishing, he screamed miserably, the heart beating rapidly in his chest instantly burst out, He Liyun opened his mouth, only to see a bloody red light flashing into his mouth.
The heart is where the essence of the human body is, He Liyu didn't dare to be careless, sat down cross-legged, and a black mist suddenly rose around him.
The heart was in his body, entangled by layers of true qi, wisps of true qi like spider webs absorbed the essence of the heart little by little, He Liyu condensed his mind, peeled off the essence of the heart and left a piece of residual ash, and with a wave of his arm, the residual ash floated out of the body and scattered.
Standing up, He Liyu walked over to the other and stood still, the other lying in the darkness, his chest bleeding and empty.
He Liyun raised his hand, his palm downward, and a piece of light scattered enveloped him, and he opened his mouth to laugh, and his voice was sharp:
"You raise me to replenish your energy, just for yourself, you are so selfish!"
"Too much talk, die!" He Liyun stopped talking coldly, pressed down with his palm, and he shattered in the light, turning into little fragments floating in the darkness, He Li Yu flicked his fingers, a ball of fire flashed, and the little fragments were burned into ashes by the firelight.
Xiao Lao, who was waiting beside him, saw that He Liyun's body was full of light, white light and red light overlapped together and swirled in the air, and was instantly absorbed by He Liyun's body, and after a long time, He Liyun slowly opened his eyes, his arms shook, and smoke erupted from behind him, enveloping all his expressions
