Chapter 42: Unusual Peace

With Xiao Xun here, the journey to Netherworld couldn't help but be more fun, but what caused the confusion was that in the half month after leaving the village, Xiaoying and the two didn't encounter any danger.

didn't want Xiaoying to worry, so he naturally wouldn't say much, but that didn't mean that Xiaoying didn't find out.

"Xiao Xun, don't you think it's weird?" Xiaoying glanced in the direction of Netherworld and asked softly.

The place where they are now staying is a restaurant not far outside the Netherworld, and with good eyesight, you can vaguely see the outline of the Netherworld City from here.

In fact, according to Xiaoxun's character, he should be noisy and hurry into the city at this time, instead of sitting here and drinking leisurely with Xiaoying.

Wait, drinking?

Xiaoying's dark eyes glared at Xiao Xun fiercely, and before she could react, Xiaoying snatched the wine glass in her hand.

"Who made you drink?"

"Don't you want wine just to drink?" Xiao Xun retorted confidently.

She doesn't allow Xiaoying to drink alone, besides, she doesn't think she is a child for a long time, if Xiaoying doesn't let her drink for this reason, she must fight for herself.

"Who told you you you have to drink when you buy alcohol?" Angrily moving all the wine bottles to his side, Xiaoying tapped the table with his index finger.

Giving her a strange look, Xiao Xun turned to the position beside her, glanced at the text that appeared on the desktop, and Dai's eyebrows instantly locked.

Thinking back to the first question Xiaoying asked, Xiao Xun pondered for a while, and then dragged his chin with his hand and said, "It's really wrong." ”

After receiving Xiao Xun's affirmative answer, Xiao Ying subconsciously touched the book of the dead in his arms, and after making sure that it was always there, Xiao Ying inexplicably felt relieved.

Discovering her small movements, Xiao Xun winked at her ambiguously, in the village, after seeing Mo Xiao in white clothes, Yan Lao had specially mentioned to Xiao Xun about the teahouse, and also told Xiao Xun his cognition of the three masters in this room.

Xiaoying and the white-clothed Mo Xiao have already seen it, Xiao Xun was just urging Yan Lao to talk about the matter of Qianji Gongzi at that time, but Yan Lao did not face the evaluation, but only said the birth and reason for the birth of the Book of the Dead.

Finding Xiao Xun's ambiguous eyes, Xiao Ying was puzzled at first, after thinking of the Book of the Dead, she suddenly felt the heat rising on her face, and turned her head unnaturally, at first it was just because of shyness, but when Xiao Xun came closer to take a look, the shyness turned into worry.

"What's wrong with you?" deliberately poked Xiaoying's crimson cheeks, and asked playfully.

Swallowing hard, Xiaoying slowly turned her head to look directly at Xiao Xun, wanting to tell her something, but her throat couldn't make a sound.

Different from Xiaoying's laziness, in this place where she is about to enter the Netherworld, Xiao Xun is vigilant even if she is joking, and she can naturally find out immediately if Xiaoying is wrong.

Keenly looking in the direction that Xiaoying had looked at before, the first thing Xiao Xun saw was the hands at the bottom of the table.

After wandering outside for so long, and often playing the "game" of chasing me and running away with Yan Lao, Xiao Xun naturally saw that what he was holding in his hands was some kind of weapon that could kill with one blow.

Moving his gaze vigilantly upward, and finally came into contact with a pair of eyes with murderous intent, Xiao Xun involuntarily grabbed Xiaoying's hand, and subconsciously wanted to pull her to escape.

Thanks to Yan Lao, a once famous killer, the current Xiao Xun, as long as he comes into contact with the murderous aura, he can distinguish the enemy's profession from it.

Right now, if that person is another profession, it's okay to say, but the murderous aura in his eyes is mixed with the unique evil aura of an excellent killer, and the countermeasures that Xiao Xun can think of are other than fleeing or fleeing.

Holding Xiao Xun's hand with his backhand, so as not to panic too much, Xiao Ying comforted in a low voice: "It's okay." ”

Xiao Xun, who was in a hurry, didn't understand what Xiaoying meant at all, but just tried to dodge the pair of murderous eyes.

In desperation, Xiaoying had no choice but to forcibly press Xiao Xun back to his seat, and then pushed the glass of wine that he had poured for him not long ago in front of Xiao Xun before Xiao Xun spoke.

Glancing at the wine glass suspiciously, Xiao Xun stretched out his hand and pointed to the wine in the glass and said, "This, what do you mean?" ”

"Drink it, be courageous." Xiaoying pursed her lips at the wine glass and motioned for Xiaoxun to drink quickly.

Hearing the courage, Xiao Xun was not grateful, but glared at Xiao Ying angrily, his face was full of unhappiness, and said, "What do you mean?" ”

"Look at your panicked look, I want you to calm down." Xiaoying replied calmly, and then reached out and knocked on the table before Xiaoxun was completely angry.

casually glanced at the words that appeared on the desktop, and Xiao Xun finally understood what Xiaoying meant.

The killer just now didn't come to fight for them, otherwise the killer with that kind of look would never let them see his weapon.

It's just that Xiao Xun is very curious, obviously he is an excellent killer, why would he expose his weapon, even if she and Xiaoying are not his target, he shouldn't make such a mistake.

"Can you pay?" Just as Xiao Xun was listing various possible reasons in his mind, the hotel's junior second took the initiative to come and ask for a bill.

Glaring at Xiao Er, Xiao Xun just wanted to criticize his work attitude, but saw Xiao Ying pointing to the wine bottle on the table and asking, "You can take this away." ”

"The boss said, as long as you leave quickly, this wine should be delivered." Xiao Erdui replied with a smile.

Nodding, Xiaoying took out the silver two in her arms, and after settling the account, without waiting for Xiao Xun to ask, she got up and walked out of the store with wine.

"Hey, you...... Wait for me. Keeping up with Xiaoying in a panic, Xiao Xun had to endure even if he had a stomach full of resentment.

Walking out of the restaurant, Xiaoying was relieved after making sure that Xiao Xun also came out.

When she saw the killer's weapon before, she, like Xiao Xun, could only think of escaping, but the person with the muddy place was there, and Xiao Ying was appeased in a few words, plus Xiao Ying trusted him, and Xiao Ying did all the arrangements he said in Xiao Ying's heart, which allowed Xiao Ying and Xiao Xun to come out safely.

Knowing that the danger had been isolated by a thick wall, Xiaoying had the opportunity to ask the person in the turbidity: "What happened just now?" ”

"It should be a hunt and kill order from a big force." An ethereal voice replied.

The Seven Cities Mage has never rejected the killer industry, and although there are such existences as the Black Hawk Special Service in the Phantom City in the seven major cities, the pursuit and killing orders of the big forces have always been completed by the killers.

Because of the involvement of big forces, it is difficult for the special service team to interfere, and the killers are not only at ease, but also get a good reward, and after locking the target, they will never harm others.

The guests in the store just now, except for Xiaoying and Xiaoxun, are probably all killers and targets, Xiao Er will take the initiative to ask Xiaoying to pay, and he must have been instructed by someone behind the scenes.

However, the target of the chase order is not herself, Xiaoying can't help but smile, although she is a little evil, but in the complex Seven Cities, it is not easy to protect herself and the important people around her, and she can still care about the life and death of others, I am afraid that only if she is as strong as the seven city lords.

However, even if they were as powerful as the Seven City Lords, there was no reason for them to interfere with what was not happening in their jurisdiction.

"Let's go." The way to stay away from danger is, in the eyes of the weak, to escape from danger.

"Nope." Xiao Xun shook his head, pointed to the restaurant, and said, "You have to explain it to me." ”

"What do you want me to explain?" Xiaoying asked funny.

In the three years in the cemetery, she has played tricks on a lot of ghosts, and they often ask her for explanations, but none of them finally got a satisfactory answer from them.

"Why did you just leave the checkout so quickly?" She still has a lot of things to figure out, so why should she leave!

"Didn't you just leave?" Xiaoying replied calmly.

It's also thanks to that killer that Xiao Xun became the idea of escaping.

"I ......" Xiao Xun, who had nothing to say, was so angry that his face turned red, but in the end he could only stomp his feet, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go." ”

Xiaoying smiled and nodded, and as soon as she lifted her foot, before she landed, she heard Xiao Xun muttering: "It's best not to let me meet Qianji Gongzi after entering the city, otherwise I will definitely tell him about your shyness." ”

"You dare!" Xiaoying couldn't help but roar, and immediately covered her mouth with her hand after yelling.

Seeing what he expected, Xiao Xun curled his red lips and slowly approached Xiaoying.

Because of the weakness of his heart, every time Xiao Xun took a step forward, Xiao Ying instinctively took a step back, and seeing this, Xiao Xun smiled even more.

The man in the turbid place, watching them advance and retreat for a long time, couldn't help sighing, and said a little helplessly: "Instead of advancing and retreating here, it is better to hurry up and run towards the Netherworld, so that you haven't entered the city before it gets dark." ”

Xiaoying, who was in a panic, didn't have time to digest what he meant, and when she heard that she was running towards Netherworld, she immediately turned around and ran.

didn't expect Xiaoying's reaction, thinking that she still had to rely on Xiaoying to enter the city, Xiaoxun immediately chased after her, what she didn't know was that the more she chased, the more Xiaoying wanted to run faster.

Sure enough, sometimes the shock will be too much, and by the time you realize that something is wrong, the tragedy is already underway.

What reassures the turbidity is that Xiao Xun's pursuit is not malicious, and the killer in the restaurant did not chase him out, although Xiao Ying followed Yan Lao behind him, but his time bomb did not pose a threat to them at all.

What's more, the closer Xiaoying gets to the Netherworld, the clearer the reaction on the Book of the Dead, and in his cognition, the only people who can make the Book of the Dead react this kind of reaction are Ghost King and Xiaoying.

In this way, Qianji should be in the Netherworld, where he is, he can rest assured of Xiaoying's safety, so that he can also temporarily leave the turbid place and recuperate his body.

As for the "Condensing Soul" that can completely heal him, he never expected Xiaoying to help him get it, anyway, as long as his injury goes home to recuperate, it will always heal, and he is not worried at all.

It's just that with "Condensing Soul", he may be able to improve his strength, so that even if he is in a turbid place, like the enemy that Xiaoying encountered before, he can easily solve it for her.
