Chapter 467: Block
It's not that I don't want to step forward to stop her, it's just that such a vent seems to be a more favorable relief for her now.
She straightened her arms and tried to force herself to stand up, but after repeated attempts and failures, she had to completely dismiss this thought, but her hands were still stubbornly tugging at the corners of her clothes, as if she was screaming at something, and she refused to let go for a long time.
I couldn't find any suitable words to describe my heartache at this time, and the only thing I wanted to do was to hug this little person tightly, so that she could take off her disguise and cry uncontrollably.
But as soon as I took a step closer to her, she had already completely collapsed, and her hands finally let go of the wrinkled corners of her clothes, and she fell to the ground with a "plop", and her entire upper body was almost all attached to the ground.
Xiao Wanying rested her head on her bent left arm, her right hand clenched tightly into a fist, and she slammed the lifeless ground one after another.
Even though she had deliberately concealed it, tears still wet the sleeves of her entire arms as quickly as possible, and even on the ground under her arms, you could clearly see the water marks that began to gradually enlarge.
"Bang, bang, bang-" She was originally a fair-skinned and beautiful pink fist, and under the collision with the ground again and again, she made a dull sound, depressing, sad, and distressing.
Thinking like this, the haze in my heart disappeared in an instant. I glanced at Mochen and continued to ask, "Am I wrong?" And what about the imposters, where are they? β
Mo Chen didn't continue to entangle with me, pointed to the door and said, "Where else can it be?" Lobby. People get up much earlier than you, the real master. β
"you."
I ignored Mo Chen's disdain for me, put on my mask, and pushed the door open.
"It's good for the Demon King."
The impostor's cold greeting scared me into a breath, and I immediately looked around, but fortunately, Xiao Wanying was not there.
"Don't worry, someone's not here."
This feeling of being seen through my mind makes me very unhappy, especially this person who sees through my mind is still this impostor!
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you right now." I stretched out my hand and pointed to the room where Qin Xueyuan was lying, "Go and wake her up, I have something to tell her." This is not a building yΓ¬, but an order. β
Since there is no need to kill this impostor for the time being, as long as he doesn't do anything that crosses my bottom line, there is no need for me to be hostile to him all the time, or even murderous intent, so in the words used in the conversation with him at this time, I only refer to myself as "I", not "this king".
I don't like these two words, it is too oppressive and distant, although it has a domineering and majestic attitude that is in line with my identity, but it also shows the loneliness and loneliness behind the status and power.
The imposter still smiled, and in the face of my still unkind tone, he didn't get angry, but shrugged his shoulders at me and said, "Don't 'get', she'll wake up soon, I'm just a little heavier, so she is relatively sleepy." β
"Your uncle's." I scolded in my heart, since Qin Xueyuan is no longer in trouble, there is no need for me to accompany him to the death.
"By the way, where did Xiao Wanying go?" Just now, Mo Chen told me that she was not there, I thought she was just out of Mo Chen's line of sight, but now when I look at it, it seems that she is not in this room. However, her "daddy" is still here, and it is unlikely that she will leave alone.
"She'sβshe's gone to the Moon Tower."
Oh, yes, as she said yesterday, she was going to Wuyue Tower today to help Qin Xueyuan get some clothes.
"Hey, you're going to leave her alone?"
The imposter glanced at me, crossed his arms in his hands, tilted his head to look at me, nodded as a matter of course, and did not forget to ask me, "What else?" β
I really don't understand, how can this damn impostor be relieved to let her go there alone? The "feats" of those mobs yesterday are still vivid, although they are targeting Qin Xueyuan, but "harming the innocent" is the specialty of some ignorant human beings, what if Xiao Wanying is just so back, what if she meets those guys?
Before I knew it, my hands were clenched into fists, and I couldn't contain my anger: "She cares about you so much, but you don't worry about her at all?" β
"Why should I worry about her? She's not my daughter, and besides, the person she cares about seems to be you, right? β
What kind of mentality did he say this? Why is it that he can always provoke me so lightly, and I am always powerless to refute his words?
"But, Demon King......" The impostor let go of his arms and began to slowly pace towards me with his hands lazily hanging at his sides.
He said, "With all due respect, it seems that the object of your concern now should be your unfinished beautiful lady, right?" Or ......"
He didn't finish his sentence, but he suddenly paused when he said this, and when I looked at him in bewilderment, I found that the smile that used to be so unbridled had been replaced by an inexplicable hostility that made me feel inexplicable.
He slowly walked away and stopped in front of me: "Or is it that the Demon King is naturally affectionate, merciful everywhere, and has no love or joy?" β
Although it may not be appropriate, at this moment, his expression, tone, and lines make me feel really like a resentful woman......
I was so puzzled that I couldn't even get angry, and asked with a smile, "What did you say...... How am I amorous? Where did you leave your mercy? How do you feel like I've robbed your daughter-in-law? β
This is just an inappropriate joke I said casually, but he seems to be extremely serious, and he always looks like a hippie smile, and he actually shows a vicious gaze for the first time because of such an unreliable sentence. Even yesterday, when he said that he wanted to kill me, the hatred in his eyes was not as strong as it is now.
This...... What the hell is going on?
Well, although I did lose a certain part of my memory, it is impossible that there is really a record of my "love" in that memory?!
It's outrageous to think about! If I really did this kind of thing, I would have been complained about to death by Mochen, and I didn't have a lover at all before I was alive, let alone "snatching"?
"Of course, I am not as lucky as the Demon King, and I am not blessed to receive the grace of beauties. Daughter-in-law? Scold...... She didn't even look at me in the eye......"
Dare to love, this guy is still a lover trapped by love! It was a shocking discovery, even though it had nothing to do with me......
But Ye has always been a soft-hearted master, and it is really unbearable to see this guy look so sad, but because of my "hostile" position with him in a sense, Ye will not be able to open his mouth to comfort him.
So......
"Hey, inexplicable. You don't care about Xiao Wanying, I'll take care of it! β
So, under his inexplicable hateful gaze, I rushed all the way in the direction of the Moonless Tower.
It's a shame that I rushed there, or something might have happened!
Xiao Wanying is fine, she didn't encounter the mob as I expected, and I don't know if she was born with better luck, or because my "crow's mouth" skills are still shallow, so I don't pose a threat to her at all.
But things seem to be bigger than I thought.
In addition to Xiao Wanying, who was standing in place and had almost completely lost her soul, what caught my eyes was the raging flames in the sky.
Moon Building...... It is being eaten by thousands of tongues of fire!
"This ...... What's going on? β
Although the life and death of Wuyue Tower didn't matter to me, suddenly seeing such an unexpected "magnificent" scene, I still couldn't hold back the surprise in my heart, and couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Wanying's mind had already been completely lost in this firelight, not aware of my approach, and certainly not aware of my question.
I know that Wuyuelou occupies a very important position in Xiao Wanying's heart. I wouldn't be surprised if she were crying, yelling, or yelling at the arsonist right now, but to my surprise, she looked calm, her expression was neither sad nor joyful, and she seemed to be an unwitting bystander.
Things must be reversed, and she makes me very worried, and I am afraid that she will be too sad and become extremely indifferent.
"Xiao Wanying......" I trembled and stretched out my hand slightly, pulling at her sleeve.
"It's gone."
She didn't look at me, she just muttered these two words.
I felt more and more uneasy, and I didn't know what I was thinking at the time, so I suddenly yelled at me as if I was crazy: "What about people? Where did they all die? Hurry up and put out the fire! β
Doesn't that make sense?! Even if the perpetrator escapes, there should always be a crowd of onlookers with good deeds, right? In the huge market, why can't there be a single figure?
"!" I cursed, and then continued to shout, "Come on, there's a fire!" β
I can't describe how stupid I am at this time, but it can only be like this, I can't use my spiritual power in front of Xiao Wanying, and to be honest, even if the fire is extinguished immediately, this Moonless Tower will definitely be reduced to ashes, so I don't need to expose myself for this place that is about to disappear into the world.
"Stop yelling!" Xiao Wanying finally came back to her senses, but yelled at me at the first time, "No one will come, what are you expecting?" The guys you pinned your hopes on were the ones who started this fire! β
I'm certainly not so idiotic as to think it's a natural disaster, and I certainly know that the arsonists must be fools of some good thing. But in fact, I was really shocked by their extreme approach.
Wuyuelou has existed for thousands of years, although this peaceful and prosperous world, there is no need for its existence at all, but according to what I learned from Mochen, it seems that people built this Wuyuelou to keep the pure forest fairy back then, which is nothing more than to "just in case", wanting to find some guarantee for their own safety.
I'm not from Wuyuelou, I don't know their ancestral teachings, not to mention that I have decided to cancel the marriage contract with Qin Xueyuan, but even if she Qin Xueyuan really violated the rules set by the ancestor and became close to me, as for making this group of ignorant humans excited like this? The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook. This fire, which was placed lightly, burned down was the foundation and reputation that Wuyuelou had spent thousands of years to establish. They always say that our demon clan is heartless and crazy, but who is more is clear and self-evident.
I don't have time to sympathize with the tragic experience of Wuyuelou, nor do I have time to mourn its "death", the only thing I can think of now is that Wuyuelou is gone, and in the end, the cause of this fire seems to be blamed on the rumor I spread, so Xiao Wanying, is she already hating me?
"I ......"
I opened my mouth, but I didn't know what I wanted to say or what I should say, so there was only one "I", so I pursed my lips again and continued to stand silently in the firelight with Xiao Wanying.
"Burn it! It's my! β
I was so frightened by Xiao Wanying's sudden roar that I stumbled under my feet and almost rolled into the fire. When she came back to her senses, she had already run far away, and looking in that direction, she should have gone to Mochen's residence.
Although I still didn't know why, in this case, subconsciously, I immediately chased after it.
"Wait a minute!"
"Auntie, I'm not sad!"
Xiao Wanying ignored my call, and ran forward vigorously, but she only ran a few steps, and she didn't know whether she was tired or tired, her pace slowed down significantly, but she didn't stop, and continued to walk briskly in the same direction.
I didn't dare to follow her closely for a moment, always keeping a distance from her, I didn't dare to come up to see her, I was afraid that I would be heartbroken by her grief-stricken expression, but I didn't dare to relax for a moment, for fear that she would do something radical on an impulse.
The wind around the body, coming from the fire, as we walked away quickly, from the initial heat, gradually faded into a comfortable warmth, I looked at Xiao Wanying's thin figure, a little trembling in this heat, and my heart was a pain for no reason.
I saw her raise her hand again and again, as if she was constantly wiping her cheeks.
Perhaps, it was tears.
"I'm not sad, not at all!"
Sometimes, the heart is different, just to hide the cowardly side of yourself. But, Xiao Wanying, in front of me, you can actually be a little more honest, at least, you can be the real you.
"Auntie, I am not a person from Wuyuelou for a long time, and the life and death of Wuyuelou has nothing to do with me!"
"If it's burned, it's burned, it's not a big deal, it's not my home, it's my business!"
"Drive me away? Hmph, you deserve to be burned! If I'm here......"
"If I had been there......"
Xiao Wanying finally reached the limit, at this moment, all the strength in her body was completely drained by some invisible fetters, and her legs no longer had enough strength to support her entire body, she fell straight to the ground, her curled body, and she trembled violently uncontrollably
